Pairing: Hongjoong x f!Reader
Genre: Fluff
Warnings: None
WC: 1009
Summary: You're oblivious to Hongjoong's advances. So he decides to tell you in the most obvious way he can
This took....way too long to write lol. it was supposed to come out like a week ago but I never finished it. atp tho, i just wanna get a fic out for u guys lol so no beta we die like men
-
Hongjoong doesn’t know exactly when he started falling in love with you. And to be honest, he doesn’t want to pinpoint the moment either. That’s just not his style at all. He’s happy loving you without any of the theatrics. You haven’t caught onto his feelings, and Hongjoong is totally okay with that. He wants to see where this will lead naturally, so he does nothing but flirt…rather badly. And yet, you are still oh-so blind. Some days, he even questions if you do it on purpose.
Okay, maybe it bothers Hongjoong just a little bit. How much more obvious does he have to be? He wrote you a goddamn song!
“Seonghwa, I’m going to go mad,” Hongjoong complains to his best friend. “How is (Y/N) so dense?”
Unbothered, Seonghwa continues rearranging his mug cupboard. “Maybe you should talk to her,” he suggests, but Hongjoong physically cringes at the thought.
“Talk to her?” he repeats and Seonghwa sighs, finally turning around to face Hongjoong with a look of exasperation apparent.
“You said it yourself, Joong. (Y/N)’s totally oblivious to your…honestly quite embarrassingadvances. Either you tell her how you feel, or you don’t and just continue wallowing.”
Hongjoong huffs. “Stop being logical,” he grumbles but Seonghwa just smiles and returns to his task.
To be honest, Hongjoong might just follow Seonghwa’s advice. He’s a patient man…but not that patient. He values your friendship but knows that if he leaves it be he’s going to grow to resent himself and even you.
“Seonghwa.”
“No.”
“You didn’t even let me finish!” Hongjoong whines. “I just need your help with one thing!”
One of his mugs slams down on the counter. “Why am I friends with you? Fine, what do you want from me?”
Hongjoong beams. “I owe you! Okay, so I need you to help me convince this old lady to let me on her roof.”
Seonghwa is unimpressed. “Can I go back on my word?”
-
When Hongjoong called you to meet him on your apartment rooftop, you had many questions. One of them was how he even got access to the roof, but that was not too much of a worry. He always knew how to charm people and your landlady was no exception.
“Joong, you better have a good explanation,” you start to playfully scold him but stop dead in your tracks at the sight before you. Flowers, far too many of them decorated…everything. It looked like a flower shop and you were stunned at the sight of it. In the centre of it all stood your very best friend.
“Surprise?” His words come out carefully and you can’t help but smile at his obvious nervousness.
“What is all this?” You can’t keep the wonder out of your voice.
Hongjoong smiles gently. “So…you’re kind of an idiot,” he proclaims, the (not so) baseless accusation making your mouth drop open.
“What?” you question, voice hardening.
Hongjoong backtracks, as he should. “Wait– that didn’t come out properly. I mean…you’re kinda blind?”
You stare at him. “For someone supposedly really good with words, you’re sure doing a shit job, Kim Hongjoong.” The corners of his lips pull down into a slight pout and you can’t hide your smile anymore. As much fun as it is to tease him, you know he didn’t mean it in that way. “What really is it, Joongie?”
Hongjoong is nervous, uncharacteristically so. You’ve seen him like this before, when he was best man at Wooyoung’s wedding and when he was working on important projects with a looming deadline, but never to this extent. “(Y/N), I have an important question.”
You frown, taking a few steps closer. “What is it?”
He takes a deep breath before looking at you with such softness in his eyes. “I’m in love with you.”
His words hit you like a truck. “You’re in love with me?” you can’t help but repeat his words although he doesn’t mind.
“Yes.” Hongjoong smiles crookedly, his eyes focused on you. “It was a slow process, I will admit. It took me a long time to untangle whether I was just…extra fond of you or if I was in love. In the end, are those two that different?”
You can’t help the smile making its way onto your face. “I suppose not.”
“And when I finally figured it out, I tried to tell you. Honestly, half the stuff I did was so damn embarrassing. But you just never noticed.”
You blink. “That was you trying to flirt?”
Hongjoong blinks, once, twice. “What?”
“What?” You stare back.
“You didn’t know I was flirting?” Hongjoong’s voice rises in pitch. “It was so obvious! I wrote you a song!”
He’s panicking and now so are you. “Which song? Every time you showed me a song all you did was ask my opinion! How was I supposed to know they were for me?”
“It was labelled your name, (Y/N)!” Hongjoong takes another deep breath as he sees that the conversation is not going the way he wanted it to. “Look, despite all that, I just figured you should know.”
You smile gently, and Hongjoong braces himself for the worst. “Well, thank you for letting me know that you’re falling for me too.”
Hongjoong’s brows scrunch at how you phrased that sentence…and then his mouth drops. “Too?” His voice cracks and you giggle, taking a step towards him.
“You heard me right, Joongie. You’re not the only one in love with their friend.”
Hongjoong can’t help his eyes tearing up, he really can’t. He wouldn’t say he’s an emotional guy per se but in this moment it seems all right to let it all out. “I’m glad,” he manages to choke out as he smiles back. “Can I kiss you?”
The question is sudden, but welcome judging from the shine in your eyes. “Please do,” you whisper, and Hongjoong moves to close the gap between you two. As his eyes close, he can’t help but think to himself that this is the life he wants to have forever.

@petitprince16 i guess this is for you since i didnt even wait till i seized this opportunity 😅 mwah ❤️
"I guess I'm playing you again," Sebastian says with that infuriating half-smirk he has always had which used to drive Charles crazy even before he finally saw it directed at him. He's leaning against the door of Charles' locker room, and his playing shorts are really short. Charles gets distracted by Seb's legs for a moment too long, before his eyes return to his face and that damned infuriating smirk.
Namely, the way that smirk drove him crazy changed many ways over the course of his career and with the times, but Charles isn't really ready to get into that. He's blushing already, and he has embarrased himself in front of Seb a million times. He'd give anything to be able to embarrass himself against him a million more, if he were being honest, but honesty is overrated, and Seb is retiring at the end of the season.
There's a whole thing happening, him and Lewis playing each other in one final match. Charles knows all about it, from Pierre and George and Mick and everyone, and he doesn't know what he thinks. Doesn't know how he feels about it, really. Doesn't want to figure it out.
That's a lie, actually. It's jealousy, and annoyance, and sadness, because Seb has always been there, always, someone Charles looked up to before he climbed the ATP ladder, someone Charles met on the courts all over the world, grass and gravel and all in between, someone Charles even beat regularly for a while. He's still not sure if that was the best or the worst thing to have happened to him. But aside from that, Seb was a voice on the phone in the middle of the night and the face across from him in the bar, a warm hand on his neck and even warmer lips on his in the dark of the nights in England and Spain and Australia and everywhere in between.
And now he's retiring, and playing Lewis for his final match, and Charles is just supposed to, what? Go on? Play like nothing is changed? Live on like Seb isn't leaving?
He can't. He has to, though. He hates it with his whole being, but he has to. Fuck.
"Yeah," Charles replies, and tries to smile. "I'll try not to grind you into dust." He shrugs. "At least you can win against Lewis, later."
He isn't sure why he said it. He wishes he hadn't, but he knows Sebastian, and the damage is done already. Seb knows him, too, always has, always had a way of cutting through Charles' bullshit and opening up the most vulnerable parts of Charles, prying him open and making him admit things he didn't even know he thought, or felt.
This time is no different. Sebastian looks at him, really looks at him. His mouth opens a bit on a quiet exhale, and there is recognition and understanding in his expression. Charles flushes fully, bites his lip and puts his hands in his pockets. He scuffs his shoes and tries to think of their upcoming match, but it's no use. His mind is stuck on the fact that Seb is leaving, and that this will probably be the last time they play each other.
A warm hand splays on his shoulder, and soft fingers graze his throat. He looks up into Seb's eyes, then glances around, to see if anyone is in the locker room with them. There's nobody there, and Seb presses his hand into Charles' collarbone. The touch burns, but Charles is used to it. Seb's touches always burned.
"Charles," Seb starts, then cuts himself off. Charles' name always sounds unfinished on Seb's lips. Maybe it's because Seb rarely finishes what he wants to say to Charles. "I - you -" he tries again. Charles is sweating too much already, and he can feel his shorts cut into his stomach. He tries not to move, but Seb is too close already.
"It's okay," he makes himself say. "I - understand."
Seb scoffs. Charles blushes again, but that's fair. He doesn't understand, not really. He's young, and hungry for victory, and he doesn't understand why Seb would walk away. How he even could.
Seb says nothing, and silence is pervasive for a moment. Sounds of the crowd are muffled, and Charles feels his heart in his throat. This tournament isn't really that important, but Charles still wants to win. He wants it more than anything, except, maybe - no. That's foolish. Seb has made his decision. There's nothing that can make him stay anymore. There is nothing worth staying for anymore.
"Charles," Seb says again, and this time, there is something soft in his voice, somthing that hurts Charles. It's the same tone he uses when they're done with fucking and they're wrapped around each other, right before one of them has to get up and leave. That's when they talk, about silly things, and important things. That's when time stops for a while, and everything gets relegated to second place, tennis and playing and winning and injuries and all of the world that's outside their bed. That's the times Charles yearns for and fears the most. "Do you have plans for the summer break?"
Charles blinks. Seb's final match is in July, during the first week of the break. Charles has already confirmed he'd be there, with Seb's PR team and his own, and Lewis' people too. He was planning on coming to Germany, watching the match and then fucking off to Ibiza or somewhere else where he could drink his - whatever away. He doesn't know what Seb is asking. He doesn't know what this all means.
"After July," Seb says, and there is something in his eyes that makes Charles' breath hitch and stop in his throat. "I have some things to do, to wrap up, but August, I - I will be free." Charles doesn't think he's only talking about tennis. "I'll be - I will have time. And if you, if you want - I have a tennis court at my place in Switzerland."
It's not a question. It's not even an offer. It's - it's not like Seb, not to say what he wants, at least not to Charles. He's never had issues with telling Charles exactky what he wants, and what Charles is doing wrong, and what he's doing right. It's not like Seb, to mince words. It's not like him at all. It's more like - Charles.
He looks at Seb, and sees it all then. The tightness of his lips. The crow's feet around his eyes. The way his chest rises and falls. The way he clutches onto Charles' red shirt harder than it's necessary.
Charles feels himself start to smile. Seb is close to him, but Charles takes a step which brings him right into Seb's space.
"I have no plans," Charles says quietly. Seb's eyes widen almost imperceptibly. "I would appreciate using your tennis court. To exercise, for next season."
Seb licks his lips.
"That means this isn't our last match."
Charles can feel Seb's breath against his own lips. It smells like watermelon, like the gum Seb likes to chew. It's familiar. It makes him giddy.
"I'm still going to win," Charles says cheekily, and it startles a laugh out of Seb.
"You think?" Seb asks, and his eyes sparkle. His fingers trail a burning path slowly over Charles' skin.
Charles looks at Seb's lips, then back up into his eyes.
"I know," he says with a certainty he has rarely felt in his life. I won today already, he doesn't say.
He's pretty sure Seb knows it already, if the grin on his face is any indication.

What's wrong with jungkook
Omg. Jk has been giving me mixed signals eversince he released seven. It's like there's a spark but the wires are not connecting cause wtf. Okay so before jimin got number one on the BB I bet nobody ever dreamt of it or even thought it was possible even jimin himself he never aimed for the billboard he just wanted to release music but it just happened to happen that every song he released this year charts on the BB. Like how am I going to say this... I just don't know what's wrong with him lately he's like a rookie that just got fame and now is letting it change him. Like I know there's no problem whatsoever when a person wants to chart on the BB I mean that's ever artist's dream but...
Tumblr media
Like what do you mean by that. Jk already know that, that position is already secured scooter already payed the money we know. But why the sudden obsess with no1 if jimin hadn't got that no1 I bet he wouldn't even be thinking about it. But I've always knew he's been competitive and he's said numerous times he wants to be recognised more and stuff so what scooter and bang pd did they didn't manipulate him nor threaten him he wants this, all this payola and fraud. I'm disappointed in him actually cause why would he actually shit ok everything that BTS stood for, for years making music the honest way. What's he hoping to gain from this? Because armies might be blind but the world isn't. Like what is wrong with him.
The members have been acting fishy during the second chapter. If it's not Tae distancing himself from the group it's RM and acting bitter sometimes and well yoongi then now jk who's suddenly became chart obsessed it's like he tryna be the Beyonce of the group or something. I literally don't want to hate him but lowrdddd he's pushing me lowrdddd. It's like he tryna prove he's the golden goose and no-one can outdo him. I don't know what's he hoping to gain from this really because news flash this ain't gonna gain him new fans or something. BTS have always been used as scapegoats and belittled for way too long after proving themselves over and over again to the west and to Asia that honest artists to exits, that in order to achieve you must be passionatee
BTS has always preached about how making music is more that just making musing and selling music it's about passion, the message and all but wtf is this...
Tumblr media
I swear I'm not slandering him nor being a hater jk is/ was my second fav after jimin and I'm a jikooker and I love them both but I tend to lean to jimin's side more because he's the owner of the magic shop. The reason why I'm into BTS today.
Anyways BTS has never urged us to vote for them, stream for them, buy their music all they've asked from us is to enjoy their music. But someone doesn't think so...
Yoongi and JK are the members that have been pushed the most so far. I mean a Tour really when's he going to military? Then jk and his payola and fraud I'm disgusted atp. It's like he wants to blow up so bad, like dude you're already famous what more do you want, or he knows he wouldn't have achieved what he did with seven without all that push which is why he's welcoming the payola with open hands and happy about it.
Mhhhh... Idk I don't want to sound like a hater but jk is annoying me rn so so much I don't want to end up hating him because hey it's not that deep but honestly how would you feel if you were called to the table to eat fancy food with utensils while your brothers eat crumbs on the floor but then hey
Tumblr media
I don't want to sound like a hater because I think I'm starting to sound like one. This is the last time I'm talking about this I'm unfollowing anything related to him because I don't want to be toxic and know what's going to happen forward is going to shatters that little love I have left from him so I'm unfollowing everything related to him I don't want to see his face nor hear his name till jimin releases something.
Anyways congratulations to Tae on his new ambassadorial deal as the new brand ambassador for Cartier. And Kths had the nerve to involve jimin in their celebration like have your little celebration but know your boundaries Tiffany is bigger than Celine and Cartier combined. Does anyone know the difference between a Global House ambassador and a Brand Ambassador
I'm eating noodles for the whole semester I'm saving for pjm2 and possibly a concert from jimin even a one day concert would be enough :⁠,⁠-⁠)

Can I have Agent Torture x Reader? Pretty sure you know who's asking but fhghhh
Lmao yee, one Big Big Man on the way! 2022 edit: a little bit of a format change, grammar errors corrected
===================================
"Listener" [MAG Agent Torture x Reader, headcanons]
ngl you're really just another survivor within Nevada who was lucky enough to not get fucked up by Hank or Tricky.. or Jeb, or the Agenc-
But then how did you meet Torture? You may be asking
That's the thing, you both bumped into each other accidentally
Torture was mid... Crisis? Breakdown? Idk but he was killing ppl, his pain their pain shit
He walked into what he thought was an abandoned warehouse to try and clean the blood off his hands, only to find you standing with a bag in your hands
A few awkward moments of staring at each other ensue, until you lifted the bag slightly
"you... Hungry..?" You ask unsurely, he's still staring at you, taken off guard by your question, usually, people would've run away, and he either decides if he wants to chase them or leave the be
He shook his head, but HEY WHAT A COINCIDENCE his stomach rumbled right on cue
You just deadpanned up at him "yes you are, don't lie to me." Then walked up to him
He was still stunned in his seat, questioning whether you were stupid or brave to talk to him in such a way, but before he could even finish his thoughts, you offered a hot dog to him- where did that come from??- oh.. yeah.. the- the bag-
"here, take it." You said, he hissed lightly, inching away from the food, but his stomach rumbled again, he was- actually pretty hungry- after a few minutes, he actually took it
It was pretty tiny on his hand but it should at least be just enough until he goes back to the agency
He grunted a thank you and kept sitting there, you- surprisingly to him -sat in front of him "no worries" you said, ".... So- what'cha doing over here?"
You both made small talk for a while, and he actually found himself quite entertained with you, you were a great person just to talk to, who would listen to what he could say or read what he could write and give your honest opinion, and he appreciates that!
So ensue him sneaking out of the agency multiple times just to talk to you
He says he's a complex individual and you are the only person who will actually listen to him... In reality its something deeper, he's falling for you, he doesn't know it yet but he'll get it eventually
Though some of the agents and ATPs are getting suspicious of how he just vanishes sometimes, especially when they need him, he's threatened to kill anyone who dared report his vanishes to the Auditor, another thing he's glad to be scary about
And I'm sorry but he won't realize his feelings in time, you'll have to confess first-
And once you do, he finally realizes what he feels for you and reciprocates the feelings
Ensue his outings are longer and way more often bc you and him are now constantly meeting and cuddling
He swears he's never had the most comfort ever in his life
You're the best thing that has happened to him!!
And he'll protect you until the end of his life, you know he's a man of word
Auditor probably knows after putting a tracker on him due to the number of his outings, but he won't interfere, your influence has actually been making him a lot easier to work with unless you try to fuck with his cause or influence him into leaving the agency you won't be hunted <3
Congrats, now you're constantly being carried and held by a big man <333

The media and him and whoever else have claimed him and Elkann have already begun speaking about all the things Ferrari can do to be more inclusive and how to accommodate for his well everything. Do you reckon it'll actually play out the way he thinks it's going to play out?
Unless they had specific contracts about it with the DURATION signed, yes. If it's only a vague clause, a vague promise, no.
But let's be HONEST here. Ferrari has their own organizational culture for DECADES. Elkann can speak all the time about it but for it to change will take YEARS not just in a matter of months (less than twelve months even to his official move to Ferrari in the 2025 season). To be honest, I think it'll be messy? Charles is 27. Let's say LH stayed for 1-2 years. He'll be 28/29 atp. He doesn't have all the time in the world to wait and let Ferrari prioritize someone's eighth WDC while he himself has yet to get his first. It's not going to be all flowers and gardens. Especially if Elkann is openly favouring one side over the other, it won't be pretty.
Ferrari is Charles' team just as Mercedes is going to be George's and Red Bull is Max's. For this rich oligarch mf who holds 70% of the voting shares in the board to suddenly choose someone else is not going to be pretty. So far we don't know Piero Ferrari's stance, the non-exec directors stance, and stuff. But judging by how things go in Mercedes, it won't be all pretty and flowers for their PR team too as LH is definitely not a Carlos Sainz who is willing to do those PR contents with Charles 24/7. Their strategy has to change and it'll cause a bit of a chaos too.
Back to Elkann's sugary sweet promises, my point still stands. This is a team that is very strong and holds their culture tightly to themselves (Mercedes is more of like a... melting pot?). For them to suddenly change in >1 year to welcome his arrival in Ferrari, BIG ASS DOUBT. Organizational cultures don't change that fast and Ferrari seems to be filled with traditionalist proud people so opposition to the change will appear. For the ambassadorships and philanthropic promise? As long as there is a contract, yes. If it's a sweet promise, no. But honestly I find so much slack in their brands that I can't believe they're together because they just don't fit?? Not in a racing way but in culture, norms, values, PR, branding ways. In Mercedes, they mold to whatever LH wants. But in Ferrari, where the saying goes "no one is bigger than Ferrari"? 😅😅 I'm sure everyone knows what I meant.
Take this lightly as it is my personal opinion. I don't think it's long term. Ferrari looks like a very traditionalist fixed culture company. Doubt anything would change for one man. No matter who it is or whether they're important or not, I don't think it'll change/they'll adapt the philanthropy stuff LH brings forever. But the ambassadorship? Idk unless it's a contract, Ferrari might've pulled a Mercedes

Hi, I was recently wondering how similar couples JonJay and Clois really are. Like, this is literally practically the same couple, only on different fronts. Even Jay himself, as a character, was in some sense built in the image and likeness of Lois, but my pink-haired boy is still not an American, an honest journalist, but revolutionary and I love him for it. And so, sometimes it seems to me that the future life of Jay and Jon will be similar to the marriage of Lois and Clark. It’s as if they are repeating their fate, or what? (This all sounds very stupid, but yes).Does this make sense or am I crazy?
On a surface level for parallel reasons, yeah, I think JonJay and Clois share a lot of similarities but as you said they differ in some fundamental ways that still marks all four of them as different and you totally are right in catching the parallels. Like they're intentionally there.
I don't think jay's physical design has anything to do with Lois though, sorry Anon I might have to disagree on that but I'd love it if you (or anyone else no pressure) point out in which areas they're similar in character design ^_^!
I'm sorry I actually really enjoy the JonJay and Clois parallels but also how they so clearly are distinct. Jay is consistently working with The Revolutionaries who are considered to be extremists who don't hesitate to kill, his moralities are a lot more flexible than typical Superfamily members. He's more of a team player in terms of getting the job done and prior to Lois's promotion(and tbh even after it), I think Jay is more of the leader type and has this natural ability to lead groups while Lois is more of a one-woman-mission person whose first instinct is going off alone. They also did an interesting flip, where JAY is the famous public figure in the relationship and it's a hero/hero relationship rather than Clois's civilian/ hero one.
They also have very different starts. Lois is American, there's this stability to her identity. Jay comes from a consistently oppressed and colonized country and is first and foremost, a freedom fighter in SOKE. A lot of Jay's fights are his alone and Jon can't touch that, he can only give support. Lois and Clark don't really have that divide and that identity aspect really affects Jay's views on justice and power.
In essence though, Lois and Jay represent the 'truth' part of "Truth, Justice and a Better Tomorrow." This has always been the case for Lois. In the Lois Lane run by Greg Rucka, she talks about how she delivers the truth despite how terrible or ugly it may be. And Jay literally calls himself that. Jay is Lois's legacy character, much like Jon is Clark's.
Jon and Jay are each taking up the mantles(co-occupying atp) the impact Lois and Clark and are representing what they fundamentally want.
Sorry for going off, I just love JonJay-Clois parallels and I'm glad you brought it up.

let me lay this out in a way that hopefully seems respectful, and brings clarity to the issue. People get agitated with you I think because you were an Austin fan, and it has shifted to Kaia. And I think that’s where a lot of the frustration for Kaia comes in. You said before you would talk more about Austin when he had things come up, but even when Bikeriders trailer came out, that didn’t seem to happen. (Understandably, you’re busy with school.) But you still talk more about Kaia. That is very much your right, and you get to talk about what you want. And if you’re more interested in Kaia now, that’s ok, but I think it should be said, so people know. I think Austin fans maybe feel like you don’t like him that much anymore. To be honest it makes me sad, because Austin had to work so hard to get where he is and he still at every moment has to “prove” himself to everyone. Even after winning awards and getting an Oscar nom. Kaia had everything in life and never had to work for it. Plus all the connections in the world. Not her fault, but it’s true. Between the two, I feel Austin needs more support and encouragement. People in Hollywood love Kaia. She doesn’t need help making friends. She has a million. Austin doesn’t get much love and he doesn’t have a lot of friends. We need to be real here. Between the two, he has more talent in acting than she does. Yet people still don’t think he’s talented because they just don’t like him. She said one line and everyone loves her. So I just wish we could promote and love Austin more.
2.) when it comes to the book, I’m fairly certain that is a book Austin has mentioned in a podcast before. I am trying to find out what it was. So it must be a book he has, and she read it because it’s at their house. I think it just grates on people if Kaia talks about something as if she has experience with it, when her boyfriend very much does. And it’s a very tough subject. It is true that she can talk about whatever subject she wants. I don’t really know why she would want to touch in that subject when the person she is living with had to experience it. But that’s in her, and I’m sure she knows if it would bother him or not.
but she didn’t talk about it. she posted a photo of the book. without a caption. and hell maybe she wants to “touch it” because she wants to understand it more now that her long term partner struggles with it?? i don’t want to be rude because you’re coming in peace but i genuinely can’t wrap my head around viewing the story she posted, or her hypothetically doing a book club on it, negatively. using it at all to criticize kaia requires making invasive assumptions that aren’t our place about how austin feels about his trauma and his boundaries and i just. can’t sorry. if it’s grating on people they need to reevaluate their parasocial relationship with austin, because it point blank shouldn’t. all that said if it was referenced in a podcast by him please do link me, i’d like to listen!
to your first point, i’m sorry but if it idk helps it has nothing to do with me liking one of them ‘more’ and everything to do with me starting law school. kaia is ‘easier’ to post about bc i can just post modeling photos/bottoms still and dip. with austin i want to *talk* about things, interviews, bikeriders etc but i unfortunately at the moment don’t have the time i wish i had for that. law school is essentially a full time job and have my days scheduled out hour by hour 7am-midnight every day including weekends. after midterms next week i can mellow out for a week or two and will be on more than i have been. but i’m very honestly tired of having to ‘prove’ my love for austin. if i have to meet a quota of posts about him to prove my fanship than yeah i guess i’m a shitty fan. i love him so dearly i’ll start crying if i think about how much i love him for too long. he means the absolute world to me and i adore him. and atp if people chose not to believe me i don’t have it in me to spend energy trying to grovel for approval when i’m busy enough.
and i do think austin has friends. by nature guys in their 30s don’t really post with their friends the way girls in their early 20s do, so we just don’t see ‘content’ of them as much.
i hope you know that any snarkiness here isn’t directed so much at you personally. it’s directed at the topics brought as a whole. all love. and i do genuinely appreciate the civility. <3

I am gonna be honest i have no idea what the writers are doing atp, but from the way they're approaching things and writing things it seems that they do not exactly know what they're doing (or rather are making flawed choices), bc i am not sure how to see some characters and situations here. They made Nancy emotionally cheat on Steve and physically cheat on him with Jonathan, and now they made her emotionally cheat on Jonathan with Steve too in S4? That just seems really ridiculous from a writing standpoint I'm sorry. If they were going for an actual character development Nancy would decide to stay single atp and pursue career and college life, Jonathan would move to NY to pursue his photography dreams, and Steve would definitely move on from Nancy to find a new dream to pursue for himself. That just seems more satisfactory to me.
i honestly find it kind of funny that the duffers keep making nancy cheat on her boyfriends.
it’s just weird that they make these flawed and interesting characters, and then do nothing with them. never acknowledge their flaws, and just write them in the blandest ways possible.
if i was writing st, unless there is an insane time jump, i would have the characters end the show single.
nancy needs therapy, desperately (though to be fair so do the boys), and her being in a relationship, i think, is just her trying to escape her barb trauma. so yeah, i think her ending the series single and working on herself is really the only ending that would work (again, assuming we’re not gonna time jump ten years into the future)
jonathan needs to prioritise himself, and i would love for him to end up at NYU, it’s been his dream since he was a kid! and now it’s not even an option, it’s just stay in cali, or go to college with nancy, and that is so sad. jonathan has always had to worry about everyone else and i would love for him to end the show doing something that made him happy. and i need joyce and will to be the ones to tell him to pursue his dreams. i need them to recognise how much jonathan was forced to sacrifice for them, and for them to tell him that he deserves to come first sometimes.
and i would have steve end the show leaving hawkins with robin (staying in touch with the kids, obviously) and verbally acknowledging that he is 18/19 and the time for true love and marriage and kids can wait. steve thinks his life is over and that he’ll never be anything because he didn’t get into college and doesn’t have a girlfriend! and i just need steve to end the show knowing that he is young, and he still has years left to make stupid mistakes, and decide what he wants his life to look like. (and i would also love it if we had steve acknowledging that the reason he is so desperate for kids and stability is because of his less than great childhood and desire for unconditional love (which is rooted in his fear that he’ll never make up for his mistakes and people will only ever see him as his worst moments))

OKAY. I need to be honest here: i read that ask someone said how they perceived each character and i MAY feel more empathetic to Satoru now lol (ormaybeimjustbiasedwhatever) truly happy to see him working on himself and everything else but bro??? c'mon¡!!!¡!! you shouldn't be so naive atp anymore pls she was even talking to the dragon when you got home, my love 😭😭😭 hopefully she wont get pregnant, or loses the baby, or gets arrested for touching someone w/o consent, or gets in a car accident and dies– anyways, there are soooo many ways it could so i will hope for the best while hoping for the worst too;;; the things you do to me, istg 🥲
Also, Toji's showing too many red flags lol i mean, i can kinda understand him but???? Nah, it's like he isn't even trying to listen and understand the reader 🧐 girl, just take your lil girl and run, all mens are bad atp lol go find geto suguru, he knows how to be a good girl's dad and is handsome too
Anyway, after this chapter i may or may not have wavered as Team Toji 👀 its a bit worrying tbh and im that type of person who thinks "one alarm's enough, im out bye~" so cant be hypocritical here and say i want reader to stay lol but i also dont want reader w gojo bc his hag of a mother is rly unsettling, dont think its a safe environment for her or yui,,, im thinking too much im stopping and let the worry for the next

any theories? the obvious answer is maybe gina finds out they can bring dates/finds out ej was lying (for whatever reason. i’m genuinely curious as to why he lied unless it’s to do a promposal himself which would still make me mad if i was gina like go by yourself atp bc you ruined the night just to prompose in the morning?). or metaphorically it means their book/story is getting closed. or maybe their relationship is left open or open ended by the end of this ep (which i hope not if That leak is real bc gina is about to get SLANDERED by Them if so)? to try to think of it in a positive way i can’t really think of any way the emoji can be positive besides the “they’re open ended” way so? idk what do u think. or i just thought of another one maybe it means everything between them finally left out in the open? can be positive or negative ig
I'm not sure Gina would even think to check the camp guide/rulebook & see if "No dates to Camp Prom" is in it because, in order for her to do that, she'd have to first suspect that EJ doesn't want to go with her and what reason does she really have to believe that her own boyfriend wouldn't want to take her to a dance? Unless, maybe Val (or Maddox?) makes an offhand comment early in the ep, like, "So, are you & EJ coordinating your outfits for tonight?" and Gina goes, "That'd be pretty pointless, since we can't actually go as each other's dates." Val stares at her, confused. "What do you mean?" "You know, the whole 'rule' about no dates to Prom. How it's, like, a tradition..." Val's expression grows sad, almost pitiful, "...Gina, that's not a rule." "It has to be because EJ said--" and Val pulls out the rulebook all CITs have to read, cover-to-cover, flips to the section on rules for Camp Prom and shows her that there is, in fact, no rule about not bringing a date.
If EJ did lie though, it would have to because he wanted to breakup with Gina, but he didn't have the courage to actually do it, so he used the "no dates" rule as an out. This doesn't really match up with EJ's mindset in the ep though, since we see him kiss her & say that a perfect musical is how he stays in SLC with her (& while I don't agree with his approach, since Gina literally tells him that this isn't about the musical and that she just wants to spend the day together and try to win Color War with him and he decides to completely ignore that in favor what he thinks is best, I do believe he was being sincere). Something definitely would have had to happen mid-day for EJ to do a complete 180 and we were given no indication of that.
& While I do think their chapter is ending this episode, there are several closed book emojis that would better represent that than this open one does, so I don't think that's what Sam is referencing here. I've seen a lot of people saying that it's "close the book before it turns to tragedy" (a reference to Ricky's breakup/accepting the breakup song from s2) and I love that, but I think it's a bit of a stretch.
I really can't see their story being left "open-ended", the resignation on both their faces during the fireworks scene says, to me at least, that they both know this is the end. Also, I can't watch any more of Gina consistently putting in all the effort into their relationship while EJ does nothing but leave her feeling unappreciated and rejected. I need it to be over. (& yeah, I agree, I already know #they will come for her for the [redacted] even if pw is broken up by then, but I don't want to make it any easier for them).
My first thought was pretty much what you mentioned in the last part of your ask, because when I see an emoji of a literal open book, I think of the phrase "I'm an open book." which is to be completely honest about yourself, no holds barred & I could potentially see that being a reference to their breakup. Both of them have sort of been avoiding all the reasons they don't work up, until this point (EJ by diving into work & refusing to apologize, address or explain why he lied/hid things from Gina. & Gina by repeatedly giving EJ the benefit of the doubt and trying to ignore how little effort he puts in, hoping things will be different if she just keeps trying). Maybe their breakup is when they're finally honest with themselves & each other? Open book, no more secrets or silent suffering. Gina realizes she deserves better and EJ realizes that he...I don't know, doesn't know how to be a good boyfriend/partner and doesn't have the time to devote to being one? That he isn't the right person for Gina? (that was me looking for an alternative to "EJ realizes that he's an asshole", which is what I really wanted to say lol). Then, with everything out into the open, they realize just how disconnected & incompatible they really are.
My other theory is a boring one, but I'll include it anyway: a book typically represents school/work/learning, so maybe EJ nearly stands Gina up because, despite knowing how excited she was for Camp Prom, he was busy working on musical stuff. (& when Gina is rightfully upset because not only did her boyfriend reject her promposal, but she had to stand around watching all these cute couples while her boyfriend was nowhere to be seen, EJ could be like, "This musical is more important than some stupid dance, Gina.”) I'd say EJ doesn't even show up to Prom at all, but there's a BTS pic of Matt, Josh & Frankie all in their 70s-inspired Prom outfits, so he’s definitely there at some point.
I saw someone on Twitter say that Gina "reads" EJ (as in calls him out for being an absolute garbage boyfriend) but my personal favorite is someone else suggesting that Gina throws a literal book at EJ lmao 😭

completely, totally, 1000% agree with everything you’ve said regarding vox essentially undoing any work that was made with his guerilla “setting boundaries stream” during that most recent sims one. i get that he was expressing a fault in himself that he’s going to be treated for, but by openly admitting that on stream he is once again condoning and enabling that behavior in the more extremist side of his fanbase and i just…am exhausted with it to be honest. not to mention the pretentious “what i have with you guys is different from what other streamers have with their fans, the relationship between us is different!” spiel. plus he literally mentioned that others in nijisanji have advised him against the way that he approaches his fans, yet the speech seemed to essentially disregard their suggestions in favor of feeding that obsessive, unhealthy mindset and i’m over it atp. i really enjoyed vox’s general content (not asmr, not rp—just gameplay and collabs) but after this entire mess it is incredibly hard to separate him and his fanbase because they are inextricably feeding off of eachother and he himself has admitted to that. i hope he gets a good therapist, and i’m happy for him seeking help—but i don’t really know how i’ll approach him moving forward. the whole entire situation (along with others that have been stepping stones leading up to this) has left a bad taste in my mouth.
no exactly. like he shouldn't have even set the boundaries at all if this was what was going to happen. and to say "we're different and we have a different vibe here!! i'm #notlikeotherstreamers " is such bullshit because the other livers all have the loving, caring vibes w their viewers without the unhealthy addition of the parasocial shit. like. hello?
along with that, it's just...such a slap in the face to the others that have expressed concern and worry to be like "i'm not letting others dictate my content and i'm going to keep making these things that have allowed the unhealthy shit to get worse". i just worry that this is going to bleed into more issues that it currently has.
also the fact the reimu is blaming herself? that's got me FUCKED UP. she did nothing wrong. and i really hope others in niji are telling her that.
but honestly you're right. i started distancing myself a while ago because i couldn't handle trying to watch his streams and seeing/hearing the absolutely horrendously horny shit people would send w their supas. and then i saw the asmr streams and i just...had this feeling that it wasn't going to be good. and well. here we are. i'm happy he's seeking help and i hope his therapist helps him realize that parasocial relationships can never be healthy and that maybe therapy will lead to him setting actual boundaries but until then i can't fuck w him.

Hey! It’s the same anon that asked about Iida, thank you for answering my question! While I personally disagree with your stance, I can definitely understand how he rubs you the wrong way with his hypocrisy. I actually used to hate him too, until a couple of fics on AO3 made me look at his motivations/reasons in a different light.
That does have me also wondering, do you have any other possibly controversial takes on MHA that you’ve never had the chance to share?
Hey anon! I understand how you feel about Iida and I think may look into his character to try and understand him a bit more!
Now what you actually came for!
airybcbyy 's controversial (?) MHA opinions!
CW; MHA SPOILERS!! and controversial opinions.
Tumblr media
1; All Might
This man deserves a whole section to himself atp. I genuinely dislike all might's characters so much!!
Maybe it's just because I'm such a big izuku fan, but ever since the first episode it's always seemed like all might had seen izuku as a burden at first!
Of course as we know izuku wasn't the first pick that all might have had! But I do think that when you see a kid on a roof you should be heroic! Especially with him being the number one hero and you would assume that he would try and help seeing this distressed kid on a roof!
But no! He just leaves. And I guess you could say he had other motivations or other issues to go solve but to me it just seemed like a way of saying “you're on your own!” after this kid just poured his heart and soul out to you about how much he wishes he could help like you did. And of course all might of all people should understand how that felt, being quirkless himself at first!
I can say that his character has gotten better over the course of the anime/manga, but it's still not right with me you know? Like when his power finally diminished and he immediately pushed it onto izuku. Yes, I know you inherit the same quirk, but to me it's like-he's still a child? You have so many more pro heroes who are willing to fight this battle! Putting that emotional stress and turmoil on this kid was unnecessary!
I know OFA is definitely necessary to beat AFO but I personally don't see why izuku couldn't grow his quirk more before having that burden.
2; the Dabi reveal wasn't all that shocking
This one is a toss up for me to be honest, because I guess it was just all the foreshadowing that I just automatically assumed that dabi would be a todoroki- but at the same time it was so shocking to see how he revealed himself!
When one of your shows main characters is someone whose family is inherently meant to have fire powers, when you see a villain that has blue flames (the strongest type of flame) you can kind of attach them to each other, or at least I did.
Also with dabi being so set on taking down the hero society, I know many villains want to but his motivation would have been so clear if he was a todoroki! His father being the pos he is would give him a clear motive!
While I did expect him to reveal it to endeavor in person, I would never expect it to be like how Dabi's dance was! I would have expected the more you know close up and personal approach, like meeting him in a random alley and just saying it and then proceeding to burn him like he did in the manga, but doing it in the middle of a fight seemed so much more interesting to me!
Even though obviously the manga is on paper, it still showed so much emotion that flew throughout the pages and honestly it had me flabbergasted at the way that horikoshi's mind came up with how to have dabi's dance written out.
While Dabi is literally burning himself to the point where he will probably feel this physical pain so much more than he already does just to prove a point to his father and hurt shoto, while also asking endeavor to dance with him in hell?
It was pure genius!
3; The class 1-A kids would not be top heroes immediately if not for plot.
As we all know my hero academia literally follows the story of izuku becoming the number one hero, and yes while his quirk is amazing and he does train it properly, I just don't think he'd be number 1 so fast.
I've previously made a post that kind of went a little deeper into this and it was about how people say bakugo is most likely to be like number two hero after they graduate, but you have to recognize that most heroes don't get their own agency after they graduate, they have to start out as a sidekick.
And well yes all of the class 1-A student quirks are fairly amazing you also have to remember that they have the big three two years ahead of them, which would give them more time to build their own hero agencies and work their way up into the ranks before the 1A students are even involved in hero work!
Mirio as a third year is already considered to be the most likely to become the number one hero next, because he is number one in UA and he, even ranked up to the pro heroes, could easily beat out endeavor!
But as I stated earlier, this story isn't about how izuku works his way up, it is about how he becomes the number one hero, most likely implying that he graduates and just becomes the number one hero. Yes, while izuku will become the next symbol of peace, I just think that if it wasn't because he's the main character and because class 1a is like the main setting and the people that everyone wants to watch, those students wouldn't have a chance of making top 10 heroes, maybe not even top 20.
Heroes have to take time to grow and I think that if they weren't the main characters it would easily be Mirio at number one and a bunch of other heroes across Japan in the top rankings!
As we saw at the exam episode there are so many high schools that train heroes and all the kids had amazing quirks! If it simply weren't for the character development and to move the plot of the story along, I don't believe any of those children would have a chance at making top 10 immediately.
Tumblr media
Those are just a few of my very controversial (?) Opinions that some people may not agree with but feel free to you know make your own assumptions and put your own opinions in on what I think!

So there's this guy and I had a crush on him for like a year and then we became friends and then I found out he was straight. But atp we were friends so I can't just distance myself to forget or whatever. So needless to say I just kind of suffered for a while. And to be honest I kind of forced myself to be interested in another guy I found attractive and it didn't end well for me. But it worked. I didn't really have any desire to get w him. But the main reason I don't want to date the straight one (besides that he's straight) is because he's actually a bit pathetic and refuses to work on himself at all. He has really bad anxiety and depression and there's really only so much me alone can do when I also suffer from those things. Like I can show him my coping skills and hang out w him but I can't force him to reach out for help yk? Like bro needs a therapist and some vitamins and to get some fresh air so badly. But the point is I'm very attracted to him but I would never even want to subject myself to whatever a romantic relationship with him would be like. But I keep having dreams about us having sex. And it's at times that are so random, like he's not even a thought in my mind when I'm going to bed and then boom I'm riding his cock in my dreams. I feel so guilty and confused for having these dreams and I'm not sure what my subconscious is trying to tell me. I looked up some articles and they all say it's more about a longing for connection generally and my mind is just hopping onto its last save point. But I still feel kind of guilty and way too horny about it. Like I've been up for like 2 hours now and all I can think about is him using me. Anyways

What do you think jjk men’s type is like? Like what do they look for in a person? Ps congratulations on 1k !!!!! You deserve more 💕
jjk men + their type !!
Tumblr media
synopsis: what do they look for in a person? :D
note: this is a nice question because me and my best friend talk about this a lot (with not so shameless self inserts hehe)
reblogs and replies are appreciated!!
Tumblr media
gojo satoru
in my honest opinion, his type is someone very similar to geto which i know it doesn't really explain much but he needs someone on the chill side if you know what I mean?
he's a bundle of energy, someone who's always on a sugar rush and pretty much a husky 🥺 so he'll need someone who's very similar to a cat.
Cats arent the best when it comes to being affectionate right off the bat but once they find a person that makes them feel warm and comfortable they stick to him
gojo needs that
he lives off of the feeling of being needed by someone, to feel like their protector.
he also wants to be as close to his partner as possible. he will always be kissing your cheek/face, always has a hand wrapped around yours and if you're not okay with PDA, he will simply hold your hand and kiss the top of your head
hes just grateful that you're his<3
geto suguru
just like satoru, he needs someone who's the exact opposite of him aka gojo lol they should just date each other atp
as much as geto appreciates the silence he surrounds himself with (which isn't really that often tbh, he's always with satoru and gojo =/= silence.
he wants someone who appreciates him. he knows his worth but it feels great to be appreciated for the things he didn't even notice like the small scar on the tip of his fingers that you kissed because you noticed it was red and angry
or how you made sure to remember his coffee order
he wants someone that he can openly love behind closed doors. he is okay with pda like gojo but he prefers the intimacy of cuddling with you or being affectionate behind closed doors. no one can know what you two do or how in love you are with each other and that stirs something in his stomach. he lives off of the feeling of being secretive and private
he doesn't mind if you kiss him in public, in fact he would appreciate it a lot but hold his hand or put your hands in the pockets of his sweater and he will melt.
toji fushiguro
toji is a rough person
he looks rough, sounds rough and is overall someone who doesn't let life throw him around
and just like satoru and suguru, he needs someone who's opposite of him but not entirely
by that i mean, he definitely needs someone who's gentle, caring, nurturing, motherly if you wanna say
but you also have to be tough, strict in a way
he would obviously come to your rescue if something happens to you but he wants you to stand up for yourself
he wants you to be capable of doing things on your own, he's attracted to someone who's independent and doesn't wait on other people to do stuff for them
but it can get tiring and overwhelming so he definitely wants to feel like his person is his home
he wants you to be able to lean on him the same he can lean on you<3
nanami kento
we can all agree that he's someone whos very domestic
he wants someone who'll wait for him back at him, someone who will greet him with kisses and hugs and make him feel warm but kento isn't that selfish
as much as he likes the idea, he knows it's impossible since his job isnt sufficient for both of you
he loves a person who has a duality may i say
by duality i mean: serious at work, loving and caring behind closed doors
like suguru, he cherishes the intimacy and privacy of the moments that you two share behind closed doors. it makes him feel like it's just you and him and no other person in the whole world
he wants you to scold him if he's ever distracted at work which rarely happens but also scold him when he doesn't take his meds when he's sick
it sounds like he has mommy issues but he's genuinely so tired everyday and seeing you seems to be the only thing that keeps him sane
