next time you get bored u should answer this ask to talk about your Eric and Morbius ^_^ i love Blade so much so i’m interested in what you have planned so far
hiiiiiiiiiii im procrastinating lol. anyway so you know how this is a hall of mirrors ass story and everybody parallels everybody? yea
sooo eric is the biggest and clearest foil to morgan bc they have.. so much in common. not quite a vampire. trying to atone for times they lost control and killed human people. badass vamp-killing machines. many such cases but the Differences are the funky bit bc on one hand morgan had a like. half-decent upbringing with parents and a house and everything, hes far from stable but the idea of emotional vulnerability isnt totally alien to him. Eric was a very lonely child in a terrible life-threatening situation who grew up into a very lonely adult in a slightly less terrible life-threatening situation.
to be clear eric does have people in his life! its just that theres only 2 of them. he got adopted by his cool butch biker mom whistler as a young teen and theyve been doing the vampire slaying thing ever since, and a few years ago they picked up a hematologist called karen jensen who fell into the "older sister" role. (okay yes like 80% of the blade-related plot was pulled straight from Blade (1998) but ignore that im doing some funky shit with it. okay.) she says shes an uninvolved civilian who provides medical aid since she owes eric a life debt, but this is a lie. shes In the shenanigans.
so like he does have his gay little found family but theres some shit they just dont Get yknow. so then once he does start trusting morgan they get. Very close . Very quickly. hes experiencing previously unknown types of human connection, including being gay in practice and not just in theory! and sure hes kinda avoidant and struggles to open up and express his feelings or establish boundaries but thats ok bc morgan is so anxious about rejection and abandonment that hes very willing to put in tons of work with being vulnerable! theyre meeting somewhere in the middle, they think! morgans only a little bit clingy and always suuuuper apologetic when he crosses those unclear boundaries! surely this is a healthy dynamic that wont collapse catastrophically due to communication problems!
anyway primary foil number 2: peter-man. as in superhero role model / the cooler super-powered role model. like pete always sees morbius as someone who needs to be helped and guided and saved and supported and first and foremost as his Responsibility. eric, at least at first, sees him as a Fucking Threat. to be understood and/or neutralized. and morgan really appreciates that! then eric learns to trust and respect him and they begin this totally-not-dysfunctional partnership of equals, its kinda cute if you ignore that its blatantly barreling towards destruction <3
edit i completely forgot the point of that last paragraph. eric respecting morgan like an equal makes him realize that actually, spider-guy is being kind of a cunt about this and why is he trying to prove himself to that loser anyway hes got a cool goth boyfriend now. he actually tries to earn peters respect by making him recognize him as dangerous which BACKFIRES BADLY lmao bc peter is trying to control morbius' sense of Hero Ethics just as much as hes trying to control who he punches and when, so seeing morgan get scary makes him double down on the "holy shit dont get evil" stuff. which also backfires badly. these dudes are all fucking trainwrecks

Lemm: 11 (by which i mean post a photo of a bug that kinda looks like lemm), 13, 25, 31, 48?
11. Faceclaim for the role (bug photo edition)
the elephant beetle has a very good short-horn-long-horn thing going on that suits his visual BUT the thing about those is, the long horn and general design suits Nailsmith way more. yknow with the fork at the end. so i don't think lemm is that. also, precious little fuzz on those things
woolly chafers have the exact amount of fluff i'd expect from Lemm but they don't have proper horns!! also they're apparently considered excellent fliers. i don't think my interpretation of lemm lends itself to having wings at all. (i've seen some fabulous interpretations! i fully believe everyone should have wings ever if it's cool. i love that. enjoy seeing it around! just not for my headcanon specifically, i like him being a groundbound normie)
the problem with placing Lemm is that his body looks a lot like like the "generic bug" design you have for most of the husks. which are incredibly hard to place because they're just circles with lines across em. and a head. like, you can tell mantises are mantises but what the hell are the generic bugs meant to be.
i can't place him with anything that is both a.) fluffy around the neck and b.) has strong-looking horns. so i guess my headcanon for "what kind of bug is Lemm" is just: he's a bug. he's fluffy and he has horns. i cannot elaborate and choose not to try. if i wanted to justify making up a species for him i could go down any number of worldbuilding routes and the truth is i just don't care to, he's just some guy to me
tl;dr long answer to basically say i don't have one lol. same as i don't have one for a lot of the Generic Bug Types in hallownest. at least with lemm i can say i've thought extensively about it and just turned up zero zilch nada, and am choosing to stick with the "eh, he's somethin" answer
(i headcanon he's a beetle of some kind, and that the horns lend themselves to fighting/wrestling opponents. that's as far as i can get before irl species ask me to pick a branch of specialists and ruin his aesthetic one way or the other)
13. Dumbest thing they've ever done
have you ever been young and thought you're indiana jones? you may be entitled to compensation [a/n: deliberately vague because i already have a specific headcanon for this and there's a good chance i'll do something with it]
second dumbest thing is generally coming to hallownest. not a decision for an older bug with no real combat skills to make with their head in the right place
25. 3 things they’d want to take with them if they were dropped off in the middle of nowhere
a crowbar/pry-bar (hefty and practical), a wanderer's journal (reading material! ...and also has some heft), and a brush/comb for his beard because the last thing you want is tangles
31. If they had a tumblr what would it look like?
it would have one of the default boring black-on-white layouts that makes it look like a WordPress blog. his askbox would be permanently closed and his bio would say something about not wanting to be interacted with, but the proof is in the pudding (pages and pages of him arguing back and forth very rudely with other history enthusiasts). i also think he picks up a very complicated tagging system very quickly and it makes sense only to him.
mostly though, it'd be reblogs of museum photos and rebuttals about historical theories. occasionally he leaves likes on certain people's posts. he thinks no one can see your likes but he hasn't actually turned off that setting and has no idea everyone can see him exhibiting blatant favouritism, so if you scroll down his likes page it's 80% history, 15% posts by ghost about stuff they've found, and 5% younger bugs posting about history in ways that are completely incorrect (is he laughing at how dumb they are or is he appreciative of a budding interest in history? it can be both)
48. Scariest moment of their life
there have been a few! he's had a long one. a certain incident in his younger years, perhaps. after that, descending into the City of Tears for the first time and seeing the state it's in and how big it is and the shambling husks and spikes and everything else - realising how monumental this task will be and how one wrong move in a ruin like this could cost him everything, along with a haunting understanding that he is not getting any younger. scary stuff. let it never be said he backs down from a fight though
(in rp shenanigans he's also been pretty fuckin terrified by the Shadelord. ranks pretty high on the list. he didn't back down then either)

Hey! I really adore your gifs, they are always beautiful and well thought out. And as a content creator I have to ask, does it ever bother you how underwhelmingly our stuff does, especially compared to paddock/race/other types of photos spammed?
TBH, I only started recently so I dont have enough of reach and also not too wow stuff so I get it (and also IDC about myself that much). But I see some others creating amazing stuff that doesnt get any reblogs whatsoever and it just breaks my heart bec I know how hard you all work to make this insane gifs and edits
Hi!! First: thank you so much! Glad you like the things I do!
Short answer: yes it bothers me that things dont get reblogged.
But not necessarily in comparation with new photos that drop in race weekend bc it is understandable (plus there are a lot of people who go out of their way to not only download things, specially with other websites so they are clean of watermarks and things like that, but also edit them).
What I do think is that more complex stuff needs the same amount of love and not just a like bc it doesnt change a thing. This is not my only blog, I have another one with lots of followers that is for tv and movies and even there, specially lately, the difference between reblogs and likes is discouraging.
But well speaking about f1blr more specifically, I think it is one of the worst on that aspect, it is brutal. Sometimes not even if you gif something in lighting speed does it reach the 100 notes. And I think it is because of a few things:
People just dont reblog, that's a fact. I always try to reblog everything I see and like and even go to the tags to see if there is something new, which brings me to point number 2.
I dont know why but the tagging system in the fandom in general it's all over the place. Some days ago I reblogged this post about tagging for creators and added in the tags that I think we need to use the f1edit tag a LOT more and the xdriveredit too! It is so easy and it simplifies a lot when looking for gifs/edited photos/graphics of an specific driver. I know there are some that uses them, me included, but there is a large part that doesn't and I feel creations often get lost in the main tag bc of the influx of new content all the time. Obviously this is not by any means fault of the creators, I think everyone in the fandom should look more into those tags so they are worth tagging them. It's the same way f1 fanartist tag things with f1 art or f1 fanart (i check those tags too)
Well this is more to do with simple gifs but people do not reblog multiple versions of things and while i get it to certain point sometimes it is a bit baffling to see. There is no way two gifs are exactly the same and all deserve the same love yknow.
And yeah I know some say "oh but why are you doing it only for notes, do it for yourself" yeah well if i did it only for myself i wouldnt be posting it, its always nice to receive love for something you did and are proud of! We are humans we need feedback it is not as simple as doing it for ourselves.
Anyways, I would say we need to check the tags more, have them organized and the most important bit: REBLOG, this is not instagram and it is not twitter even if the layout on web now is the same
also i would love to know who you are and see your creations!! And try to not get discouraged if you really like doing what you do!

I think I need to rewrite The Scene from Aziraphale's perspective now to be able to get his post-s2 perspective to work in my head. I already rewrote it from Crowley's and I am very pleased with what I did with that but I think I need to flip it around.
It's weird, actually, most of my big fics are from Aziraphale's POV even though I find Crowley more relatable? Maybe I need to be in his head or I can't get his reactions at all? I can get Crowley's actions way easier.
Like, even anybody, find me somebody is mostly Aziraphale's POV once the setup is established, and Crowley's emotions are absolutely the center of that fic. keep me close is completely Aziraphale's POV, and it is also in fair part about Crowley's emotions. guaranteed to blow your mind is... actually looking at it I'm not sure. maybe Aziraphale? definitely Aziraphale by the end. I think the POV starts as sort of neither of them. this is making me want to edit that fic to make POV clearer. no mind to lose is all Crowley, and I do love that one. (and some unfortunate hound is Crowley, but Aziraphale isn't even in that one, so of course it is.)
In my unfinished works... in love with your ghost is Crowley POV, and I'm blocked on it. more than I can pay (s1 version) is half and half, and really just drawerfic. more than I can pay (s2 version) is Crowley save one scene of Aziraphale, and I'm blocked on it in Crowley's POV. if you loved me you would be here with me is half and half, and I am blocked on it in a section of Aziraphale POV.
Hm.
Maybe the moral here is number one that I need to do a novelization of The Scene from Aziraphale's POV, but also that I should just headhop whenever I get stuck? Actually if I switch to Aziraphale's POV in in love with your ghost that would probably help a lot. and I would love to have that fic actually finished. though I don't know if I want to rewrite it to be post-s2 instead of pre-s1. the central conceit of Heaven erasing Aziraphale's memories of Crowley kind of hits different after the whole yknow plot of season two... man I don't know.

Oh thank goodness. I was so scared I’d made you uncomfortable. Glad to know that’s not the case. Also currently getting ready to watch the latest episode of Blue Lock cause watching gay soccer players is the perfect way to distract myself from crying because of gay delinquents aka Tokyo Revengers 😌✨. I swear the number of edits I’ve saved to my phone these last two weeks is insane. You should totally pick it up again whenever you have the time (and ofc only if you want to) 👀. Izana brainrot has escalated to reading the fanfics under the character x reader tag. That’s when I know I’m down bad 💀💀💀. Anywho. You should absolutely catch up on Lore Olympus I just caught up yesterday and uhhhhh a lot has happened 👀. And everyone needs themselves a man like Hades like SIR IM- . Oh man I love yoo takes me back. I stopped reading it awhile ago cause I think it was being dragged out and I kinda lost the plot somewhere. I don’t like when the story keeps continuing when it’s just for the sake of it and it doesn’t work with the plot. There are very few exceptions to this. Tokyo Revengers obv being one of them cause I would seriously be so happy if it went on forever and I got to see what the daily lives of all my beloved characters were like. I have a love hate relationship with Ken Wakui 😤🤧😭. OH ALSO as sad as I am abt the ending I’m so excited for the second season in January (Black Dragons arc is my favorite). Have you seen the trailer? ALSO there was an announcement right after the release of the final chapter saying that Wakui was gonna be doing a special arc abt the Toman founders and I really hope it’s in the reset timeline with Takemitchy cause I need to see how him and Mikey did it all and just their relationship with everyone (adding childhood-friends trope to the number of reasons why this ship has everything). And it also included the announcement of Wakui saying he’s working on multiple spin-offs and I was like AFJBGFDJKHHHGGHGGG YES GIMME *ahem* also I haven’t read the Bajifuyu Letter from Baji Keisuke spin off yet but I was gonna wait until after the manga ended as a source of comfort yknow so I gotta do that eventually. EGGNOID MY DEAR COLD-BLOODED KING SIRENS LAMENTS LETS PLAY. I LOVE ALL OF THESE SO MUCH. Haven’t read them in a while tho 😅 (besides Lore Olympus atm). I recommend Brimstone and Roses, Unlovable Replacement, Midnight Poppy Land, SubZero, Down to Earth, and The Kiss Bet. They’re all on webtoons. OH and i heard that Nagi makes an appearance in the latest ep so I’m excited not cause I’m falling for him or anything ofc. How’s life? Good I hope? And I’m happy that my description was somewhat on point and that it didn’t make you uncomfortable. Oh and also love your sketches so much they look so good 🤩!!! Uh question. Just to double check. The constant asks aren’t a bother are they? I know you said you like interacting but I just wanna make sure it’s not annoying having to respond to constant asks from the same person all the time. If that makes sense? Anyways I hope you sleep well/wake up refreshed!! It’s night time here atm. As always take care of yourself! *sends virtual hugs*
- ✨ anon
Starry!!
I finished reading the latest chapters of the manga (and I'm amazed at the fact that I've managed to keep up with it so far; are we ever gonna get shirtless aiku and i wanna see him with the italian team)
my only motive in life atp (*꒦ິ꒳꒦ີ)
I love yoo does make me feel nostalgic; but yeah as much as I love the whole story, the plot did get dragged out. So like here's the thing, I've watched a lot of k dramas and some of them are really lengthy. Like whats wrong with secretary kim had a good plot and everything, so did suspicious partners but this new one I watched (the penthouse) it got dragged out for so long that I didn't even want to watch season 3; even if it was interesting i'm being pushed to watch hospital playlist even with let's play when Sam and Charles were being dragged with Marshall in the bg i... dropped it. No ill will intended against the author and their artwork; cause they are amazing, but i lose interest with complicated plots. me watching he is a psychometric
The coincidence! I was literally asking abt the black dragons today (wanted to know if Shinichiro is there or not and turns out he is!) I wanna see the whole thing with Mitsuya, Hakkai and Taiju - me having a tr brainrot and thinking if i should work on it or will people get annoyed with me ⁽⁽ଘ( ˊᵕˋ )ଓ⁾⁾ I like manga omakes- they can even be turned into mini eps cause of it - esp with the trio and their pet shop business! (Me thinking of the moment when Baji's handwriting is so bad that Chifuyu had to show him how to write and teach him- he really thought wearing glasses would make him smart smh) and if i do read tr I'm gonna start uploading manga panels on my blog as well- so be prepared to be annoyed ig ⁽⁽ଘ( ˊᵕˋ )ଓ⁾⁾
I'll definitely check out the webtoons you sent me (kiss the bet seems interesting and midnight poppy land has popped into my recs a couple of times). I have to watch the next ep of blue lock - curious to know if Nagi's voice is how I pictured it.
I'm doing alright! Working on wips and clearing them, studying, watching shows *sips coke* and listening to music; we hit another mini milestone - 1.2k (๑˃̵ᴗ˂̵)و so I'm working on two fics; angst comfort
istg the way you guys might come at me for this ʕ·ᴥ·ʔ
I just wanted to do something fun on the blog hehe- responding to comments with art. It's not very well done, yea but i'm not used to drawing digitally nor anime that often since I sketch paintings and statues... but its just to good around with my followers and to let people know that i do read their comments (๑•͈ᴗ•͈)
Honestly? I don't get interaction on my blog apart from you, 💙 anon and a few more - and - I like talking to you; esp when you mentioned abt having consistency while having to talk to someone? cause that's how it should be- and i don't regret saying this but the number of times i have unfollowed moots cause of this (big author or not; I'm not gonna engage in conversations if i'm going one sided abt this). So now I just prefer to chat with my followers and anyone who wants to drop in my inbox. And no, I don't find you annoying bb; you're very fun to talk to and I look forward to your visits- no matter how many times! This is probably the most interaction I've received in my entire writing experience and actually being treated like a person on the other side of the screen rather than being asked to write a part two (after its already been discussed many times) or asking to be tagged without my work being interacted with- and by interaction i mean telling me and describing to me what you liked about the fic and all that yk. And there used to be some days when I had my askbox closed so this is a pleasant change from that
૮꒰ ˶• ༝ •˶꒱ა ♡
so yeah feel free to send as many asks as you want - i'd be happy to see them ( ˊᵕˋ )♡
*sending back warm hugs*

I HAVE RETURNED WITH SEASON 11 THOUGHTS. yes. i finally stopped what was a completely unprompted several week long procrastination for no reason at all.
ok first things first: not a fan of the 11 minute episode format!!!! i want my b plots back!!!!!!! its not fine but whatever i'll survive. number two this season was a little all over the place and definitely couldve benefited from being two separate seasons just because the first and second halves are so entirely disconnected from each other but its not the end of the world.
it is now time to talk about one of my most favorite things about ninjago ever: namely, the COMPLETELY INCOMPREHENSIBLE TIMELINE. following in the footsteps of the last writers, whoever has taken the reigns this season has carried on the age old tradition of sticking dates onto the ninjago timeline that make it more convoluted than beforehand. its wonderful. its delightful. i dont think ive ever seen a messier timeline in any piece of media in my entire life. the timeline was broken from the literal beginning between lloyd's existence & wu's flashback to garmadon getting banished to the underworld or whatever and it Just Got Worse. (no for real that entire thing is so terribly funny its like. ok garmadon got banished to the underworld when they were both presumably young adults maybe (???) so logically lloyd had to have been born sometime around there but when we meet him lloyd is probably like somewhere from 8-13 years old and wu and garmadon and misako are Very Old. and its just. so funny. its so funny. THAT ASIDE)
so back to the latest edits to the timeline. evil snake lady claims that wu betrayed her thousands of years ago. so wu is thousands of years old, but is also presumably somewhere around kai and nya's parents' ages given that they all seemed to be young adults at the time. which was also in ancient ninjago times and also like 50 years ago max. does it make sense? no of course not its the ninjago timeline. it gets even better though, because we are now introduced to the concept that … allegedly. there was a tenuous peace that existed for millenia between the serpentine and humans pre-wu & garmadon almost screwing that over so bad. and we can reasonably assume that the serpentine were created along with the rest of ninjago, so …… did the fsm just create garmadon & wu a few thousand years after chilling out in ninjago for a while? who knows. least of all me.
actually speaking of the first spinjitzu master i want to complain for a minute because i hate this guy. frankly i dont think he was a very good dad. i dont even think he was a mediocre dad. in fact i think he was a pretty crappy parent. like. like okay evidence number one: look at his children. the amount of mental illness there is unreal. you cannot look at wu and garmadon and tell me that the fsm was any sort of decent at parenting. like… ok im 99.9% sure they did not have a mom, which would imply that the fsm created them himself. which would FURTHER imply that, for some completely and entirely incomprehensible reason, he gave garmadon mostly (??? im still really unclear on this but we've gone through that) oni blood and wu mostly (??? see above) dragon blood. instead of, yknow, giving them half and half. to get more clear: he specifically screwed over garmadon for no reason. also it should be noted that even after wu and garmadon have found out that the evil snake lady is evil and 10000% intends to use spinjitzu to kill everybody they still dont tell the fsm about any of it because they fear his reaction more than they do the consequences of this. they go behind his back and use an expressly forbidden technique to clean up this mess because, again, they fear his reaction more than any of the other consequences. i do not think he was a good parent at all.
back in like season 2 garmadon says that wu was always the fsm's favorite and honestly i believe it given whatever the heck is going on with their blood, but its quite unfortunate that even the favored son still got massively screwed over by the fsm because said fsm SUCKS and is a TERRIBLE PARENT. like at some undefined point prior to the anacondrai drama the fsm just up and leaves for no reason in particular and like. wow. the guy really did just make one of his sons evil by default and then when it got worse he ditched and and dumped the responsibility of cleaning that up onto his younger son, thereby forcing him to send his brother to hell and traumatizing him for life. okay. thanks first spinjitzu master. and if that wasnt enough he then drops back in 50000 years later to try to drag lloyd off to who knows where and then immediately ditches again. his entire lineage is just mental illness: the family. i dont think that the fsm was like. actively trying to be an atrocious parent or anything but i do firmly believe he was grossly neglecting his duties as a father and was in general incredibly distant and unhelpful and probably spent more time getting mad at his children than anything else. tldr i hate the first spinjitzu master. i hate him so much.
anyways lets talk about wu for a minute while we're on the topic. i think its incredibly interesting that he wanted to 1) turn himself into snake lady whose name escapes me at the moment despite the fact that its pretty clear she wouldnt have stopped at just getting back at him and 2) go by himself to save zane when he had absolutely no way of getting home and knew it. frankly i would not be surprised if there was some amount of suicidal ideation / martyr complex going on there. in other news i am SO delighted 1) we got a garmadon and wu flashback. huge win for tumblr user iratusmus and 2) wu got to be the bad influence this time because that is so terribly funny. i think wu should want to do things he's not allowed to do more often. i support it. also, tangentially related: i know john mulaney is cancelled now or whatever but this is really just wu in a nutshell
Tumblr media
and since i've already mentioned him, lets go ahead and talk about zane for a minute. i am…….. honestly incredibly disappointed with ice emperor zane like. the biggest problem here is that they didnt really do anything interesting with it - its never really relevant that its zane specifically who has become the ice emperor outside of 1) elemental power and 2) so that we can turn him to our side. like… it doesnt really have any connection to his past or even like. okay earlier in the season while lloyd, nya, and zane are trying to steal the other forbidden scroll of spinjitzu (im going to talk about that briefly in a second but we'll hold off on it for a minute) they come across a mirror that shows the onlooker's worst fears - lloyd's is becoming lord garmadon, nya's is failure/never amounting to anything in life, and zane's is losing his humanity. so you'd think that in an arc where zane gets corrupted they'd try it play into that but…. no. because even if the ninjago writers are new, it wouldnt be ninjago if we didn't set up a million concepts that couldve been really interesting if they had been properly explored and then we drop all of that to take the most boring route humanly possible. thank you, ninjago writers.
brief commentary on the forbidden scrolls of spinjitzu: i am SO confused on 1) why the fsm wrote them down. like bestie if you, specifically, are the one who forbade this, WHY ARE YOU WRITING IT DOWN!!!!!!!!! I HATE YOU 2) how sticking them on a staff gives you an incredible amount of power. not even like. reading it or something. doing what it says on the writing. just the concept of holding it gives you power. hello ? 3) why it can banish people to the never realm if used in a certain way. they didnt even try to explain this one at all and im so confused about it. also, if it can banish people to the never realm, why cant it transport people across other realms? many questions, no answers.
ok back to this season's villains: lets talk about SNAKE LADY! in all honesty i dont have that much to say shes kinda a mid villain but at least shes a girlboss so i'll take what i can get. motivations are kind of lacking but whatever. i do really wish the writers would commit on whether or not its valid to be racist to serpentine. as a general rule im very much against demonizing an entire species/race/family as a result of "youre the children of [x] so you are born horrible and anybody who treats you poorly because of that is right" bc it reeks of racism and is incredibly supportive of unfounded prejudice and so on and so forth but like. ok if youre going to do that. the least you can do is STICK WITH IT!!!!!!! its literally like "ohhh the serpentine are evil" "ohhhhh condemning all the serpentine by virtue of their blood is actually kind of racist!" "ohhhhhh wu was so stupid for trusting that snake he shouldve been racist from the start" MAKE UP YOUR MIND. PLEASE. im not asking for much.
i also didnt like how they kind of tried to give zane's power to nya its like. ….. ok look i get it we've all watched atla if you can control water logically you should be able to control ice. HOWEVER. since you have decided that these are two separate elements you need to KEEP it that way because otherwise whats the point of having zane's power if nya is just going to take it. they didnt quite go that far but they were sort of angling for it and i dont like it. please give the women something of their own to do instead of just taking each other's (see: pixal becoming samurai x (actually unrelated but technically shouldnt it be ronin x given that nya/pixal dont serve a feudal master) instead of making up her own thing to do) or taking the men's (whatever the heck was going on this season with nya and ice). but whatever.
miscellaneous thoughts
akita is cool i support wolfgirls. i dont really have any deeper thoughts on her than this but i would like to see her again
didnt like how they brought back the giant hairy eyeball for a useless filler episode and had pixal beat it completely by herself, thereby cheapening the entirety of season 5 (or whatever season it was)
and. of course. this wouldnt be a proper season 11 review if i didnt talk about the literal most important part of the entire thing. that is right.
Tumblr media
super saiyan jay.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
so yeah. season couldve been better but honestly super saiyan jay makes up for everything wrong the ninjago writers have ever done
my apologies for the v e r y late reply this weekend was hw hell. but i did learn my favorite heartwrenching fact about neanderthals so :] small wins. absolutely THRILLED to see these in my inbox let's goooo
b-plots how i miss you... hate hate hate that the 11 minute episode is default now in animation, it works well for some shows (having watched all of SU through - yeah it works, but only really well for shows with very specific scopes, and ninjago is nothing BUT vastly outsizing its own scope)... having just finished rewatching s1 all in one sitting holy crap does the b-plot do so much heavy lifting for making the story actually work. s1 is. a mess. but it genuinely does so much better at foreshadowing than i expected and the ability to juggle multiple plot points in a single episode is SUCH a loss for the later seasons... the netflix season chopper curse my beloathed. nothing else to say there we both know we've experienced vld
yes!!! kudos to the team for fuckin it up even worse than archie sonic i love it to bits. we've got time loops we've got alternate realities we've got immortal(ish) old guys with fucky aging and a kid with even fuckier aging and retconned in hereditary superpowers. we've got every possible "what the fuck thats not how that works-" moment imaginable and it's stunning. everything about wu and garmadon's childhood (if you can call the implied thousands of years where they looked like kids/teenagers that) is fascinating to me and i am thrilled to find out how the spinjitzu brothers books fuck it up even more. the bad luck these guys gotta have for all their positive relationships dying out (humans :() and making all their enemies out of psuedo-immortal weirdos who can hold a hell of a grudge.
tangentially related yess obsessed with the FSM's pioneering fatherly shittiness. first dad worst dad. objectively better than if he was an actively good dad or was genuinely trying to harm his kids this is just what happens when god has zero positive role models. or role models at all. and deals with his complex feelings about his heritage with baby creation. idk the way they handle garmadon's morality is utterly deranged and i love to see them repeatedly shoot themselves in the foot trying to justify him being ~evil all along~ this honestly does more to explain why wu is. like that. than anything about garmadon adjfaksd. all this aside using this entire segment as my ref for my never-to-see-the-light-of-day spinjitzu bros fic thank you for having the wu and garmadon thoughts of all time <3
wu and zane.... i will never get over them. as previously mentioned i just finally finished rewatching s1 with Intent and ohhhh boy do i have infinite emotions over them and while 99% of it is extrapolation it is so incredibly sweet how much wu genuinely cared about zane and his lack of memory and how much he tries to comfort him. meanwhile all of that goes over zane's head bc he is. very bad at understanding his + others emotions at the time and most of the stuff wu is trying to help him with either hasn't registered or zane isnt even close to being able to put words to it much less internalize someone else's attempt to help. all this for wu to disappear on the brother acquisition mission for two weeks and come back to him being Completely Fine And Cool Cuz I'm A Robot Master :D. theres no way wu has any idea what a robot is in s1 and im living for it fuck the retcons. man's bewildered and his pseudo son (mark III) is Overcompensating.
my eternal inability to shut up about zane aside. all that to say wu's eagerness to make Terrible decisions in this part? stunning. the squandered potential of the ice emperor? i could complain about this for weeks. and have done so much to my discord friends chagrin. thank you for validating me AND reminding me to be infuriated. i will go read seven fics about it and have equally strong opinions about those (one day i will write the nature v nurture themed zane fic that lives in my brain and only contribute to this problem). uh. where was i going
LITERALLY YEAH?? ive never seen ANYONE bring up the complete nonsense of the staff and it's abilities WHY does it get magic cheatcodes to the ninjago multiverse. why did they not take the chance to make a joke about chima again. the world may never know
serpentine racism... once again the most common of kids media "everyone in this group is Evil bc we need punching bags" consequences and entirely unanswered. the early seasons imply the skulkins just integrated into everyday life and like half the snakes are just chilling... if you can accept the whole ass skeletons why are we still conflicted about pythor girlboss edition. tangentially: i am now obsessed w/ the idea of pixal stealing ronin's identity bc she was being pedantic about the definition of samurai. do it girl dude doesn't stand a chance.
THE ANIME EPISODE.... i have unwittingly entered the orbit of dragon ball fandom and i am SO excited to torture my brother who's a fan with this one it's such. it's so. it's beyond words. i've seen people hate on this and they are SO wrong this is exactly what ninjago has always been. utterly bonkers and doing whatever the hell they want.

throwing him right back atcha
sakuma rei the one and only ☆
• fave thing?
GRBRRGRRRRRR LIKE ALL OF HIM? LIKE ALL OF IT. particularly i really love the "oh i am jsut stupid and old :(" persona even though he completely knows what's going on. so fuckin true
• least fave thing?
can i say fans LMAO a lot of people do not like. get the point of him is that he's impossible to understand because he's so used to adapting himself to other people's expectations. ok in canon i am like. i don't know?? i think he should be pathetic more. that time he called tsumugi a cuck was kinda weird too
• favorite line
"is it that outrageous for me to want to live a normal life and be happy as a single human? am i arrogant for wanting to live my life for my own sake?" i literally can't tell you how fuckjng crazy crossroads makes me feel
• brOTP
i love his dynamic with the twins they're so cute... advising them so they don't end up like him and ritsu. crying sobbing
• OTP
reikao ☹️☹️ i've been obsessed with them for years at this point. also i'm quite fond of watarei + reishu i think they're cute. kanata can also be included as a treat. reikei is also fun i love them. i think i like just about every rei ship in some way
• nOTP
i have a very very VERY specific reikoga dynamic i will accept and it is almsot never present in fanon content so i do not LIKE IT. i love their canon dynamic though. also shout out to tanpopochans on twitter they get it (it's also really funny when you read doujins when they were written because of how they write the dynamic)
• random headcanon
he's always cold so he either has 68 layers on or he clings to his friends like they're a space heater. this causes everyone to think he's dating his friends (he's not he's just a freak and really physically affectionate)
• unpopular opinion
i think i'm the only one who understands him OKAY but actually. i think he's unsexy. he's sexy in an unsexy way yknow. sexy in a 'i want to take care of him when he's sick but i would not have sex with him' kinda way
• song associated
hmmm i have a couple. 'in my room' (insane clown posse) came from an edit of him i saw once so whenever i listen to it im just like oh like rei. 'all dolled up' (the orion express) doesn't really have anything to do with him in canon just my own personal interpretation. 'don't threaten me with a good time' (p!atd) is a 2nd year rei song because i said so
• favorite picture
you get 2 as a treat. number one is rei autism creature i drew when i was feeling depressed number (featuring anzu) two is just one i very much appreciate

corpse bride au thoughts/hcs/lore bestie?
im so glad you asked! i literally have this almost fully figured out. i need 2 watch corpse bride.
okokokok SO! copy still lives at wammys. wammys is going bankrupt for uh. some fuckin reason idk near keeps blowing money on legos or something. (jk the bills r high and kiras causing issues)
so. wammys offers a collaboration with zayns dads insurance comapny basically like "we'll give you our currently number one successor if you sponser us". which is funny bc the Insurance company (still dont have a name for it) is very pro-kira. and wammys is Not very pro-kira.
it should be noted that zayn and copy r still exes so. snorts. anyways
so yeah stuff happens zayn and copy get engaged and oh look! zayns ring got fucked up somehow and is now like. way WAY too big for him! L
so instead of sending it back copy just. yoinks it and fucks off to the woods 2 practise his vows.
which, may seem weird but. but. copy wasnt planning on staying married to zayn for very long, already having a plan ready to uuhhheheheh (makes a throat cutting motion) zayn.
things go south. kinda.
so copys in the woods and he finds what he believes to be part of a corpse buried in the dirt. and hes like "oh fun practise!"
yada yada That Scene happens sparrow pops out of the dirt (oh right @fabledgalaxies icarus is a part of this lol) like "i do!"
copy gets spooked. very badly. yk how in cartoons there'll be this huge cloud of dust and then a characters like miles away from it? thats Literally what happened with copy.
so funny thing: under certain circumstances copy kinda. looses the ability to hear things. his brain just. forces him to block out noises with the exception of his own breathing and heartbeat.
so he runs to this bridge thinking hes far away enough from sparrow and stops running to catch his breath. and wouldntcha know it sparrow is Right Behind Him! and ccopy ofc cant hear a damn thing
so he like. taps copy on the shoulder, which causes copy to freak the fuck out and his AT fields go fucking WILD man almost disolves into LCL for a sec. but he ends up clipping through the bridge and almost falling into the water. i say almost bc sparrow caught him. lol
and copys freaked out bc he didnt expect A, a body to be attached to the arm and B, the body being sentient.
and thats all ive got so far! btw reaver is Also involved with this somehow. i know how in my mind but. hold on
so sparrow drags copy 2 his husband, reaver, like "look what i found :D"
so yeah husband of my husband is also my husband. no idea what happens after all of this (yes i do but. yknow) edit: hiiii its 10:30 am i wanted 2 add the entire time copys spritinign through the woods in fear sparrow is keeping a very calm walking pace like right behind him

thanks ! i am unfortunately an insane honor roll student so im like constantly on the grind tm - but i enjoy it! also. warning for the rest of the ask bc it is just a huge "here is my opinion, whats yours?" so if its like uninteresting lmk 😔 I am unfortunately studying craftsmanship and business/finance ethics in college so its like my thing tm
anyhow - i get what you mean about the whole seeing your peers' work not perform as well and being disheartened. i and many other nsfw oriented writers have been there before and im sure people will be there after : its not a bad thing to want recognition and it was one of the main reasons why i took a step away from writing.
but the main thing that brought me back was that writing itself so very fun, and in order to participate in "fun" i had to reevaluate what it means to "succeed" in a craft - esp on tumblr dot com hell site supreme - and re-reconcile that with my own wants and needs as someone who participates in the craft of writing. how much do i care vs how much should i care about numbers in comparison to others, and does it mean more when friends or strangers like my work, and so on and so forth. im not saying you should do this too or that i have a particular answer to that balance, more so just some misc. thoughts from one writer to another.
anyways sorry for the wild tangent - hope it doesnt sound like a lecture 😳 i know its "just" fanfiction but fanfiction is also tied closely to community, and to participate in community is a skill in and of itself ! all of this is just to say that, like fairy anon said, i think you should have fun. put your enjoyment and emotional enrichment in your craft first and foremost and be proud of the things you did and also be proud of the things that succeeded at the same time, and all that. its ok to get silly with it and still be scared, and its valid to let those fears keep you from getting too silly all the time - but i would still rather you get silly than not at all, if that makes sense
- 🐶 to the moon
omg honor roll student... i haven't been that academic since i was a freshman in high school TT
i get what you mean! part of my issue is that i have a genuine passion for writing, to the point where i want to be like. an actual author someday. so i spend days and weeks writing and editing and putting everything i've got into a work just to watch something i spent maybe ten minutes on get more notes and i'm like 👹👹👹
i might sound whiny and annoying about it and i really do enjoy writing just for fun and not for notes!! but. yknow. sometimes i don't feel like i get much back at all and i'm just like a monkey sitting at a typewriter
maybe i take this shit too seriously idk.. i've been having a lot of doubts about my writing and a lot of performance anxiety recently. like i have a lot of anxiety about people judging me for the things i write...? it might just be all in my head but i've always been like that i have really bad social anxiety lol one reason i don't have ANY socmed outside of tumblr
i'll try to be less serious and have more fun, but i get caught up in my own head sometimes.

So. In a strange turn of events, there might be a slight chance that Jungkook likes you back, especially if 'slight' is spelled with gigantic letters that occasionally flash neon pink under the night sky. You've been staring blankly at your math homework, trying to figure out what to do after yesterday's sudden revelation. For the first time in the past two months, Jungkook and you aren't joined at the hip. You left his place in a hurry that morning, barely catching any sleep as you made a lame ass excuse about meeting Jeehyun for lunch and quickly texting your roommate the lie upon leaving so she can corroborate the story just in case.
The orange webpage of Wolfram Alpha stares at you mockingly, the cursor blinking as it taunts you; daring you to type in the answer that is surely wrong. You've called Jimin, but he's been busy lately with his own school work and the competition that's coming up just around the corner. The scores are now tied yet again, the numbers fluctuating greatly as patrons either favour Namjoon's strange creation or Jimin's safe yet colourful one. With the vote split in a solid 49-51 in favour of Namjoon, Jimin has been stressed and apologetically refused to hang out with you to focus on perfecting his drink, so your math homework has been left abandoned until the day before it's due. Sure, you can call Jungkook, but you're trying to avoid him at the moment, unsure of how to respond to a confession that you're not meant to hear.
You slam your head on the couch, lying down as you drop your laptop gently on your coffee table. A soft classical piece filters through the speakers and though you're pretty sure Jungkook doesn't play the piano, he does have the fingers for them. Long, thick digits that coax orgasms after orgasms from inside you. Your body heats up, a blush creeping up your features as you think about the first time you shared a bed with him. You've come so far, you and Jungkook both. Though there are still days where you want to strangle him, it's intent is usually for a much different, much kinkier purpose now. Back then, you vowed to not get yourself involved with Jeon Jungkook and now here you are, entangled in a supposedly straight-forward yet complicated relationship at the same time.
You should be happy! Your brain grumbles at your reluctance, smushing your face on the many throw pillows Jeehyun insists on buying. Jungkook likes you and you're avoiding him because…
You're a coward.
"Yeah! And so fucking what? I don't want to get hurt, okay? Shit!" you yell at no one in particular, punching the fabric filled with cotton in anger.
The time you've spent with Jungkook has been the best times of your life, especially the ones where you're just lounging on the couch, scrolling through your phone while he reads on the opposite corner, legs intertwined so tightly that you're bound to trip and fall if you stand up too suddenly. It's so mundane, but it's the simplicity of the scene that brings you comfort: the soft rustling of pages turning and oldies music coming from one of your laptops as you sit with each other's company. You no longer need words to fill the space when you hang out with Jungkook because the silence is fulfilling enough. And Jeehyun's right… you're happy just on your own, a self-sufficient person capable of doing everything alone, but you are happier with him.
"He just adds to that happiness, you know?" her words echo back to you from that night at Aunt Ji's. Granted, she was talking about Taehyung, but you know it applies to your current relationship with Jungkook as well.
Sighing dramatically, you bury your face on the pillow once more, allowing some tears to escape and dot the surface a few times before sitting up, sniffling and wiping your eyes on the sleeve of your sweater. You're not ready to let go of Jungkook just yet, so what's the harm of continuing this dance for a little while longer?
---
The chime of an incoming call jolts you awake. Groaning, you rub the sleep from your eyes and stretch, joints popping after sleeping in an uncomfortable position for some time. You let your phone ring a few more times before grabbing it from the edge of the coffee table, just as it's about to fall.
"Mm?" you say in lieu of greeting.
"Hey, it's me."
Jungkook's voice from the other line sounds distressed and you sit up instantly, bringing the phone closer to your ears.
"I've been trying to reach you. Are you avoiding me?"
"No," you squeak. It's not entirely a lie. "I was taking a nap. Did you need something?"
There's static on the other end and you call his name, bringing your phone to your face to see if the call has been disconnected. It hasn't, which means that Jungkook's taking his sweet time thinking. "What's wrong, Koo?"
"I… I need to see you. I'm right outside and I brought food since you didn't answer any of my texts. I mean, I'm glad you're only sleeping, but I got a little worried since I hadn't heard from you all day," he rambles. And although you can't see it, you can imagine him pacing in front of the lobby entryway. "Can I come up?"
Your disheveled appearance reflecting blurrily from the TV makes you hesitate momentarily, wondering if you have time to put on some simple makeup and change into something less akin to the pyjamas you've been lounging around in all day. But Jungkook's seen you without makeup, your beauty products already in his bathroom after the numerous times you've slept over. Taking a deep nervous breath, you say fuck it and you nod before realising that there's no way he could see you.
"Yeah, hold on, I'll let you in," you mutter embarrassingly. Thank god you're alone in the apartment.
---
After a few minutes, there's a quiet knock signifying his arrival. When you open the door, you see Jungkook in his long, dark coat carrying what looks to be an entire restaurant's menu of food packed in white plastic bags. You usher him inside quickly, taking a few of the bags from his hand and placing it on the counter. The smell of different spices flowing in your nostrils causes your stomach to rumble loudly, especially since you haven't eaten all day.
"I know you like Aunt Ji's food, but I didn't know which one you liked so I kind of got one of everything." There's a small, sheepish smile on his face that makes his dimples appear.
"Yeah, no kidding. What the fuck, dude? This must've caused a fortune!" you laugh, though you're grateful at the gesture anyway.
When he finishes unpackaging the styrofoam boxes from the confines of their plastic prison, he comes and pulls you in an embrace, lips pressed on your neck as he takes a deep breath. You don't wrap your arms around his waist immediately, too stunned at the way his body folds itself to cover you. Jungkook takes a step back when he notices your lack of movement, tattooed hand rubbing the back of his neck as he stares awkwardly at the floor.
"Uh… I missed you. I know we saw each other this morning, but, I don't know, I just got this bad feeling and I wanted to see you as soon as possible," he explains, eyes flickering occasionally from the carpet to your face. "Sorry if this is too sudden or if you're busy," he seems to have something else he wants to say as he closes and opens his mouth a few times, yet all he manages is, "have you eaten yet?"
You smile tiredly, head tilting slightly to the side as you shake your head. "No, I haven't eaten. Come on, let's dig in, okay?"
He eyes you suspiciously and you're instantly self-conscious, wondering if he can see the red rim of your eyes from your earlier sobbing session, but he doesn't ask any questions and follows you wordlessly to the kitchen to grab some plates and silverware for the two of you. The styrofoam containers are all labelled with the various contents of meat and vegetables, with some of your favourites dominating the counter and a few dishes you haven't heard of. Jungkook talks animatedly about his day as you scoop food into his plate and yours: how he won a bet with Taehyung, exercising, and homework.
Just as you're about to dig in, there's a glint on his face from the light that catches you off-guard. The meat slides off your chopsticks and back on the plate as you finally notice the newest addition to his features.
"Koo."
"Hmm?"
"Is that an eyebrow piercing?"
"Hmm."
"Is that a yes?"
"Mmhmm."
"Can you stop answering all my fucking questions with various kinds of 'hmm', please?" you click your tongue irritably as the man in front of you grins, cheeks full of food and looking very much like a hamster.
He chuckles for a few minutes before placing his chopsticks down. "Yeah. I got it just now. Remember how I said I won a bet against Taehyung? He said there's no way I could pull off the eyebrow piercing and I proved him fucking wrong."
That he did. You don't know Taehyung as well as you'd like, neither Jungkook or Jeehyun have properly introduced you yet, but you have heard about the trouble those two got in school and even though you typically avoided rumours involving Jungkook back then, they always seem to make it back to you. Taehyung and Jungkook, inseparable and incredibly mischievous.
"Do you like it?" he cocks the pierced eyebrow upwards, smirking mischievously at you. That damned smirk makes an appearance yet again and it takes everything in you not to attack his lips right then and there.
"I do," you whisper meekly, returning your attention to your barely eaten food. Jungkook hums as you feel him watching you, leaning backwards on your dining chair as he eats leisurely. Tension becomes your third guest for the night, settling comfortably in the air between the two of you as you stare at your food resolutely, shoveling rice and vegetables inside your mouth.
You feel safe to ogle at his new look once you hear him chuckle; his attention leaving your face to focus on his plate. In addition to the eyebrow piercing, his hair is slicked back tonight, the jet black a great contrast to his alabaster skin. You moaned sadly when he said he wanted to change his hair back, claiming that he's over the purple and wanting something more natural. Your whines grew even more pitiful when he returned from the salon three hours later with not only black hair but a shorter cut too. You grew into his newest style eventually, though you missed the long, fluffy purple locks that curl when he's just woken up. It's a miracle that Jungkook can pull off any look, especially right now. Even in a simple black tee shirt with jeans underneath his dark coat, he looks like a rockstar about to conquer the stage. The mental image brings a smile to your face, thinking about the fans roaring and chanting his name and how much it suits him. Maybe he was famous in his previous life.
"Something funny?" he interrupts your musing and you swear that he's purposefully lifting up his pierced eyebrow to call attention to it.
You shake your head, a secretive smile on your lips while you finish the last remaining bits of rice, standing up abruptly before he gets another word in to put away the food. Feeling lighter than earlier in the afternoon, you play a fun round of tetris involving styrofoam boxes and your small refrigerator. You catch yourself humming while you stack the boxes and you're acutely aware of the silence coming from the dining room, knowing that Jungkook's probably listening. He must be made of magic because upon his arrival, your mood is gradually lifting.
By the time you're done, your fridge is stocked to the brim and you send a quick text to Jeehyun to tell her the news, snapping the picture of your triumphant packing skills. Groaning, you roll your eyes when your phone chimes twice, a very typical Jeehyun message floating on your screen.
[jee-bee]: sounds like i'm staying at tae's tonight ;) [jee-bee]: i'll eat the food tomorrow, don't worry!
Locking your phone, you make your way to the couch, pulling your laptop back on your lap as you continue to solve the equation in front of you. When you hear the scraping of a chair against wood, you only need to wait for a few more seconds before Jungkook pops into the living room, his lips pulled into a grim line as he begins to pace.
"So, what's up?" you ask, unable to handle the wait any longer.
"Well, do you have anyone to go with this weekend? I'm sure Jeehyun's coming, but I'm assuming she's going with Tae- Oh, you haven't heard yet, have you?" he stalls when he notes your confused expression.
"Haven't heard what exactly?"
"Our grade school reunion is this weekend." Nope, this is news to you. You haven't received an email from any of the alumni committee, though you aren't surprised that Jungkook knows about it first. He's always been popular; good looks, good grades, and even better manners. You snap your attention back to him when he resumes. "And I was… sort of hoping you'd come with me-" Jungkook rambles, rubbing the back of his neck with his tattooed hand.
"Yeah, sure, let's do it!" you exclaim excitedly.
"-as my date?" he finishes.
Oh. The enthusiasm you felt earlier disappears for a second as you tug at your bottom lip, brows furrowing deep into your forehead. It's fine going with him to such a public event, there wasn't anything in the contract that forbade it, but a date sounds less 'friends-with-benefits' and more into 'dating' territory.
A smile stretches on your face when you see his nervous expression; at the way he's furiously staring at your carpeted flooring. You affirm your decision to continue this relationship with him for as long as you can, consequences be damned. It'd be fun to see your old classmates after sometime, especially now you have a walking sex god to go as your date. Plus, a part of you wonders if Suha is going to be there, perhaps this will get back to all the shit she's pulled on you in high school after you quote-unquote "steal Jungkook from her".
"I'd love to go as your date, Koo."
He gapes at your answer before his own dimpled smile appears. "Wait! For real? Yes!" he cheers, eyes twinkling excitedly as he comes to sit by your side. Jungkook plants a soft kiss on your lips, bringing his hands to cup your face, already talking animatedly about what you should wear and all the other miscellaneous details involved, and this time, your smile is genuine as you listen attentively, stopping him only after his ideas get ridiculous ("We can show up in banana suits!" he cackles, one suggestion you immediately shut down).
You can't wait for this weekend to come.
---
"Red? How about red?"
"I don't own that many red dresses. Do you have a lot of navy?" you pout, filtering through your closet as you place your phone between your shoulder and your ear.
The voice on the other line hums for a second and you hear the scraping of hangers against wood as Jungkook looks through his own closet. It's his idea to dress up in matching colours to the best of your ability. He wanted you to wear the blasted sundress you got from the shop a while back, but you had refused, immediately blushing when you thought of what transpired in the dressing room.
"Okay, I have navy! Can we just video call so I can show you?"
Without waiting for your answer, a beep on your phone signifies an incoming call and you slide your fingers on the LCD to accept it. Jungkook's gorgeous face appears on your screen, a wide grin on his lips as he holds up the dress shirt with one hand, putting it in front of his torso.
"Hey, gorgeous," he chuckles as he greets you. "So, what do you think?"
"Everything looks so good on you and it's not fair!" you mutter, bottom lip darting out. You place your phone next to your chosen dress, determining whether the colours match your shade of navy. "Hmm, I think it's perfect. I'm going to go get ready for tonight. Are you still picking me up?"
Jungkook laughs from the other end and a mess of hair fills your screen as he nods in affirmation. "Of course! See you at 7?"
Closing the call, you look to your phone to find that you have less than two hours to get ready. You scramble quickly to turn the shower on, butterflies threatening to burst from your stomach. After exiting the shower, you do your makeup and hair meticulously, making sure that no colour or curl is out of place before zipping yourself into the floor-length gown. It's nothing fancy; just a simple navy dress with a plunging neckline that shows the barest outline of your breasts and a deep slit that runs on one end up to your mid-thigh. You pair it with some simple dangly earrings and some white pumps.
As you look at yourself in the mirror, you suck on your bottom lip, suddenly feeling too revealing. Thankfully, you have the perfect person to ask for fashion advice. You burst into Jeehyun's room, knocking only a few times to signify your arrival.
"What do you think?" you ask breathlessly, twirling around to show her your dress.
"Damn, babe. If it weren't for Jungkook, I'd be taking you out tonight," she laughs, pulling her hair into a bun. Jeehyun and Taehyung aren't going, the latter feeling a little sick so the two of them planned a movie night at your place instead. Truthfully, you had a feeling they just didn't want to socialise and wanted to spend as much time with each other as possible, especially with the semester ending. Jeehyun's going to go back to her hometown a few weeks before classes actually end since her exams were all project based and she's done with all of them.
"Are you sure? You don't think it's too much?"
"Oh my god, of course not. I might have to stay out of the apartment for a few hours when Jungkook comes over. I highly doubt he wants to go so soon after he sees you looking like this." She gestures at your appearance with a wink, causing a blush to creep up your face.
"Thanks, Jeehyun," you smile gratefully, feeling more confident after talking with your best friend.
"If you ever need a confidence boost, you know I'm right here. Anyway, I'm going to pick up Taehyung. Have fun tonight, okay?" After blowing a kiss in your direction, she disappears into the hallway.
---
You're in the middle of applying more lipstick when you hear a quiet knock and you're puzzled because it's still twenty minutes to seven. When you open the door, you're met with a large bouquet of flowers thrusted in front of your face: pale pink peonies, chrysanthemums, and baby's breaths all crowding your vision. Jungkook.
"For you," comes a muffled response hidden among the petals. Giggling, you take the large bouquet into your hands, finally revealing the man behind the flowers.
Jungkook is, without a doubt, the most handsome individual you know.
He didn't end up wearing the navy shirt the two of you agreed upon hours prior, instead showing up in a white dress shirt underneath the most stunning navy suit you've seen, perfect with a black tie and a white pocket square. Thankfully, the colour of his suit matches your dress completely. His dark hair is swept back, though he lets a curl fall in front of his forehead, just above the eyebrow piercing. God, he's so sexy. Jeehyun's right yet again; if you stand here for much longer, you're definitely going to be late. Jungkook looks at you up and down, a fond smile growing bigger and bigger on his face as he takes your appearance in.
"You look," he motions his hand, trying to find the word and your heart thumps expectantly, "breathtaking."
"Right back at you, handsome," you giggle, feeling the heat cover your cheeks and you're grateful for the full-coverage foundation you chose for the occasion. You take a step back to let him in the apartment, leaving him in the entryway while you move towards the kitchen, opening cabinets and cupboards. "I'm just going to pop these in a vase. I think Jeehyun has one somewhere. Can I get you some water while you wait?"
Jungkook steps into the apartment and clears his throat, feeling rather nervous despite being in a space he's grown accustomed to. You miss the way he checks himself in front of the mirror, making sure everything is perfect for the evening and occasionally checking his watch nervously even though time has barely flown by. With you bending over the counters, you also miss the way he's checking you out, certainly staring at the way your legs look underneath the slit of the dress.
"Thank you for the flowers, Koo," you whisper, fluffing out the arrangement after finding a suitable vase and filling it with water. "They're beautiful."
You spend a few moments looking at the flowers, giddiness filling your veins at the thought of showing up to the reunion with the handsomest man on earth. "Ready to go?" you ask, turning to face him and immediately stopping in your tracks. Tilting your chin, you step cautiously towards Jungkook's figure who's currently biting his lower lip and rubbing his neck. "Hey, you okay? You seem nervous?"
"Y-Yeah!" he stammers, though the both of you know how unconvincing he sounds. Letting the seconds tick by, you cross your arms and lean against the nearby counter, waiting for him to open up. His gaze flickers adorably between you and the floor as he finally takes a steadying breath, dropping his hand to the side. "There's one more thing. It's nothing expensive, don't get me wrong, but… I saw this and I'd be lying if I said I wouldn't want you to wear it tonight." Jungkook finishes off his sentence with a soft smile, producing a small teal blue box wrapped in white ribbon from his pocket.
He hands you the box and you shiver when his fingers linger on yours. Gingerly, you unwrap the present to reveal a silver necklace with a dainty 'J' in cursive staring back at you. The past you would've scoffed at the gift, but the lovesick version of you now has to hold on to the tears so you don't ruin your makeup. You take a few deep breaths, trying to keep them at bay, before looking at the box again, gently picking up the necklace to inspect it under the light.
"May I?" Jungkook's voice is soft and he takes the empty box away from you to place it on the counter. You give him the necklace and move your hair upwards so he can clasp the chain around your neck. The heat from his fingertips raises goosebumps across your skin and you press your lips firmly together to avoid moaning, knowing the two of you would be very late if it comes to that.
He turns you around to inspect the necklace that sits nicely on your throat and you can't help the smile that appears suddenly on your face when you see the way his eyes shine brightly.
You can't help turning the soft moment into a mischievous one as you play with the necklace. "I didn't think you'd be the one to collar me, Jeon Jungkook," you whisper seductively, batting your eyelashes at him.
He mirrors your grin with one of his own, eyes suddenly darkening as he steps closer to your body, tipping your chin upwards. "A collar? Nonsense. Like you'd let anyone put a leash on you," he murmurs. "Seriously, don't think of it as a collar, but hey, whatever gets you wet, yeah? Now, come on, we better hurry if we want to even make it to the event."
"What's the alternative?"
"Me, you, fucking on this counter."
"Tempting, but you're right. We should go," you finish with a wink.
Jungkook threads his fingers in yours, pulling it up and kissing the back of your hand, the intensity of his gaze making you weak in the knees instantly. You're the first to break the staring contest, removing your hand from his warmth as you smooth out your dress, a strained smile on your lips as you wonder if you have the time to change into a different set of panties.
---
You didn't have time to change unfortunately and so you fidget uncomfortably as classmates whose names you've long forgotten greeted you warmly, though you know very well that they're dying to know how you ended up with Jungkook behind the initial pleasantries and 'how are you's. You don't have to be blind to see the way their gazes drift from your face to his or at where his hand rests comfortably on your lower back. The attention you're receiving is nice, but the way Jungkook's sneaky fingers trail the expanse of your skin makes you shudder and all you want to do now is to leave the gathering immediately to find somewhere else a bit more… private.
He seems to have caught on to your misery and has tugged you closer to his side on more than one occasion as he talks about the glory days, hands ghosting your ass innocently and even squeezing it at times. You try to plaster a nonchalant smile on your lips, tipping your head back in laughter when your conversation partners do, though your mind is long gone, thinking only of what those fingers can do to you.
Fuck Jeon Jungkook.
After making your rounds and greeting everyone Jungkook seems to know, which is way more than you'd expect, the two of you find your table and he leaves you to find some food. You're able to breathe a little easier, focusing on keeping your naughty thoughts at bay and pulling out your phone instead only to find a text from Jeehyun.
[jee-bee]: having fun? [you]: not particularly [jee-bee]: well if it makes u feel better, tae is at our apt so ull get to crash at kook's tonight [you]: ok [jee-bee]: i know ur excited, at least show it a little
You're so focused on the conversation happening on your phone that you don't notice a stranger pulling out the chair next to you.
"Um, sorry this seat is ta-"
The voice cutting you off with your name is feminine and one that you recognise as the woman plops herself in Jungkook's spot.
Suha.
Your ex-best friend. The one that blamed you for taking Jungkook away from her because she was rejected. The one that then stopped being friends with you to spread rumours behind your back. You remember the day clearly, of Suha grabbing at your hand to pull you into the girl's bathroom after Jungkook rejected her and berated you as she wept. You're still confused about how it all went down, but she made people believe that Jungkook and her were dating and that you had come in between their relationship. Obviously, the rumours immediately stopped when Jungkook denied ever dating Suha in front of everyone and you were left with a semblance of peace throughout the remainder of your high school days.
Your lips form a thin straight line as you regard her, eyes turning into slits as the two of you assess each other. She looks good, the emerald knee-length dress she chose to wear is elegant. You're not sure what to say, the words dying in your throat, so you tilt your chin instead, letting her say something if she so chooses.
"Hi," she starts off, shifting her eyes all over the place before landing on yours. "Umm, long time no talk."
"Yeah," you lean back, casually crossing your legs and placing your hands in front of your chest. "What do you want Suha?"
Suha sighs. If she expected you to be kind, that nicety is long gone ever since she stopped being friends with you over a fucking man. Granted, you are now fucking said man, but that's neither here nor there. Instead of answering, Suha looks at the necklace you got from Jungkook and you immediately cover it up with your hand, a sense of possessiveness taking over you. "So, you and Jungkook, huh?"
"Yeah. We're kind of a thing now, I guess," you shrug, answering noncommittally because you don't actually know how to address your relationship with Jungkook. Sure, you're here as his date and you can surely leave it at that, but you want Suha to know that you're there for a long time and explaining to her that the two of you are 'friends-who-fuck-and-have-tender-moments' seems too complicated whereas 'boyfriend' isn't entirely true. So, you say nothing more as you eye the girl carefully, trying to make heads or tails about what she's thinking.
You expected something witty, maybe a scathing mockery like she once did in the past whenever you walked by. What you didn't expect is for her to bow her head all of a sudden. "I'm sorry for all the shit I put you through in high school. It wasn't cool of me to accuse you of stealing Jungkook when I was the one he rejected. Especially when I started that rumour about you breaking us up when we weren't even dating. What the fuck was I thinking? Anyway, I just wanted to come here to say that. Oh, and there's one other thing…" she trails off before she takes a shuddering breath. "God, this is ridiculous, it's been what? Ten? Eleven years? It doesn't matter because I still feel guilty about it."
Her apology shocks you, but you don't let it show, foot tapping furiously on the ground as you regard her coolly. You don't know what else she has to say, you're sure that there's more than she has to apologise for, but honestly, as you look at the pitiful girl, you realise you no longer care. It's been years since you've thought of her, especially upon meeting Jeehyun in college that you don't need to hear another apology to know that you're ready to move on with your life. Suha sighs and sits back up, eyes on you as she takes your hands in hers. "I was the one that broke your pen in fourth grade. It wasn't Jungkook. I asked him to try and fix it, but I got scared so I ran and lied to you instead. I knew how much that pen meant to you and I let him take the fall. I'm sorry."
You snort as laughter bubbles from within, feeling instantly ridiculous. After months of being with Jungkook and focusing so much on your project, you've actually forgotten how this all started over a single fucking pen. The eventual rift between you and Suha, how much you hated Jungkook at one point, and how grateful you are that the two of you are now together. The power that piece of stationary holds… It's incredible.
"Suha," you giggle, a weight you hadn't realised you've been carrying lifting from your shoulders. "Okay, this is going to sound silly. But, I was mad, like to the point where I couldn't even stand the sight of Jungkook. But like, you're right, it's been eleven years or some shit like that. I'm ready to move on. Don't get me wrong, this doesn't make up for all the shit you pulled in high school, especially the rumours you made about me," you hold up a finger when you notice Suha about to apologise some more, "but I'm willing to move past it if you are."
She closes her mouth with a grimace, wincing at your words. "I really am sorry about that. But hey, you got Jungkook in the end. So, I guess that's my karma for being a shitty friend."
The two of you delve into a somewhat pleasant conversation, discussing how college life has been since the two of you part. With each passing second, you grow more comfortable, forgiving her for everything internally, though you'll never admit it out loud.
"Suha," Jungkook's voice halts the conversation as the two of you look towards him, holding two plates full of food. He has an uncomfortable look about him and if it weren't for his full hands, you know he'd be rubbing the back of his neck. "Uh, nice to see you again."
"Yeah," Suha gulps, a blush on her cheeks as she moves to stand up. With a quick nod at you, she bolts, barely whispering a goodbye. You watch her leave towards her own table, a sad smile gracing your lips at the friends you could've been. Well, no use to dwell on the past. You suppose that's a chapter of your life you can close without any hesitancy.
Jungkook doesn't say much when he sits down and slides the plate of food in front of you. From the quirk of his pierced eyebrow, he's curious, yet he waits for you to tell him. This was a part of him that made you so hopelessly in love. Jungkook who started out with his bad boy persona is actually incredibly attentive and sweet, caring even. You've wondered time and time again if he's like this to all his friends, but from his confession last week - yes, the one he thought you didn't hear - you dare to dream that he's only like this with you.
"Suha came to apologise. She's the real person that broke my pen, by the way," you explain, stabbing a piece of broccoli with your fork. Placing it in your mouth, you instantly scrunch your nose in distaste. You and Jeehyun made quick work of the food Jungkook bought last week until your fridge is once again empty and you sigh, already missing the food from Aunt Ji's. Pushing the broccoli to the side, you try out the other food he's set on your plate until you find one that's palatable and finish it off in one go. "I'm sorry about how I acted towards you, Koo, especially all throughout our schooling. It feels ridiculous that I've been carrying this burden for eleven years and it's not even your fault."
Jungkook merely chuckles, shaking his head. "It's literally okay. I didn't take it too personally. I mean, we were kids and it was a big deal back then. I don't blame you. But, hey, maybe it's fate, you know? If we haven't fought and hated one another, I don't think it'll lead us here." There's a twinkle in his eyes that's waiting for your answer.
"I suppose. I guess we should also give credit to Professor Na," you laugh, covering your mouth with the back of your hand. "If you really want to know, I tried my hardest to believe you didn't exist."
"Don't worry, I spent my time avoiding you too because I don't want to be around people that hate me."
"And now?" you quiz, batting your eyelashes playfully at him as you lean closer, the 'j' of your necklace swinging daintily in the space between your bodies.
You see him gulp, his eyes trailing low to your neckline and the deep plunge of your dress before snapping up. "And now," he says shakily, bringing his lips to your cheek to place a chaste kiss, "all I can think of is how bad the food is here and how I want to get you out of that dress as soon as possible."
"Should we get out of here?" you whisper, face flushing at the anticipation.
"Before dancing?"
You nod eagerly, placing your hand on his thigh and squeezing.
"I have a better idea."
---
"This is the worst fucking idea you've ever - ah - had," you whine, gripping Jungkook's dark hair as he licks your sopping cunt with broad strokes of his tongue, sending fresh shivers down your spine. Planting your foot on the table, you moan again when he hums and sucks at your clit in response, grazing his teeth oh so gently on the sensitive nub that has you gushing on his face.
"Careful, you're going to ruin my shirt," he chuckles, gazing up at you with the lower half of his face covered with your slick.
"How about you take it off then? Or better yet, let's just go home."
Jungkook's large hands pries your legs open as you try to close them and he returns to your dripping cunt with renewed vigor, nipping at your folds that causes your vision to turn white.
The two of you happened to find an unlocked and empty classroom and snuck in, locking the doors immediately behind you as you locked your lips in his. The tables in the room have been pushed alongside the walls for the weekend, but Jungkook manages to find a desk away from the door and has the devious plan of making you sit on the edge as he eats you out.
"Come on, just a quick fuck," he promised, but you know by now that 'quick' doesn't always entail the dictionary definition.
The moonlight makes your actions even more scandalous as you feel your high approaching. You grind on his face slightly in an attempt to speed up the process, but it only lands you a firm swat on your thighs and a growl from between your legs.
"Jungkook! Hurry!" you gasp, trying not to squeeze his head with how much effort you're keeping your thighs open for him. The feeling of your rapidly approaching orgasm burns in your stomach, the fire licking at your toes and causing it to curl. Your pants echo in the unlit classroom, with the punctured sounds of your pussy clenching around his lips the accompanying symphony.
"Desperate to be filled already?" he teases, voice low as he stands, unbuckling his pants and letting it pool on the floor. You never get tired of seeing his cock, tip a purple-ish red as a thin sheen of precum coats the length. Under the moonlight, it looks even bigger, the shadows playing tricks on your eyes or maybe Jungkook's just fucking horny and the idea of getting caught turns him on. It's definitely the latter.
With a quick kiss upon your lips, Jungkook hoists you backwards towards the center of the table, angling your legs so they wrap nicely around his waist. He glides his tip over your entrance, teasing you while coating his length with your juices. "Jungkook!" you warn, bucking your hips to stop his teases. "Please!"
"I'm glad to hear that all the time you've spent with me has made you more polite."
"Fuck you."
"...and I spoke too soon," he chuckles, but mercifully, he doesn't make you wait any longer.
After the amount of fucking, you've assumed that your pussy would have gotten used to his girth, but that doesn't seem to be the case because when he bottoms out, you hiss, clamping your lips tightly to avoid moaning out his name and risk a security guard walking in on you.
"Fuck, baby, always so fucking tight for me," Jungkook groans, hands gripping your thighs tightly as he shudders. He doesn't move immediately, letting his thumb circle your clit to help you relax.
You writhe and moan underneath him, the table squeaking against the wooden floor with your shudders. You manage to get a hold of his tie and you tug harshly, pulling him close to your body as he starts to fuck you, the pace gentle and slow. You kiss him sloppily, drool running down the corners of your lips as you whine his name.
One of his hands leaves your thighs to grip the corner of the desk by your head, hips snapping furiously as he quickened his pace. You pity the cleaning crew in the morning, but you have no time to dwell on that thought as Jungkook continues to drill his cock into your gushing cunt, chasing your high while simultaneously searching for his.
"Touch yourself, let me see you cum," he grunts, pulling away from your body to give your fingers room.
You rub at your clit harshly, urging your orgasm along as the squelching noises ring everywhere in the tiny classroom. As your pleasure steadily rises, so does your voice and Jungkook reclaims your lips to stop you from moaning too loud.
"Koo-" you gasp into the kiss, the fire licking at your abdomen burning all throughout your body. Your mind is numb with thoughts of pleasure and your muscles lock under its weight.
"Yeah? Cum for me, baby, come on," he urges, lifting your ass slightly to drill into the velvet walls of your g-spot.
After a few more harsh thrusts, you're left reeling, vision darkening and limbs shaking as you hiss his name, a surprising shred of sanity left in you keeping you quiet. Jungkook's not far behind, thrusting into you at a sloppy pace before he reaches his own high, fingers digging into your skin as he throws his head back and shuts his eyes in bliss.
As you're both catching your breath, you on the table and him leaning by your spent body, you hear noises coming from the gym floor to indicate that the dance has started. Sure enough, the loud booming voice of the MC filters through the thin walls.
"Do you think people will notice?" you ask, worrying your bottom lip.
Jungkook looks at you with amusement. "I sure hope so," he rasps, giving you a wink.
Standing up on sore limbs, you smooth out your dress. "I'm going to the bathroom to freshen up. Wait for me?"
"I'd love to," he smiles, pulling up his pants and striding towards you, tucking a strand of hair behind your ear as he murmurs. "Keep my cum in you, yeah?"
"What? Fuck no!" you hiss, pushing him square on the chest. But the look he gives you - a mix of wide eyes and a salacious grin - makes you concede anyway and you stomp towards the bathroom embarrassed and eager to please him.
---
You're squirming and people might have noticed, but does Jungkook care? Fuck no. He's swaying his hips and moving to the rhythm of the song, occasionally teasing you by spinning your form towards him when you're trying desperately hard to not let the cum dribble down your thighs. You have sold your soul to a sex god, one so insatiable to boot.
"Come on, dance with me," Jungkook whispers low in your ear, grazing the lobe with his teeth. "What's gotten you so shy all of a sudden?"
"I fucking hate you, Jeon Jungkook," you seethe, embarrasment nipping at your heels. You try to move your body, but with every inch of movement, you feel a telltale drip of something on the gym floor and you turn scarlet. "Can we please go home?"
Jungkook laughs, shaking his head as he pulls you in close. A slow song has started and couples have drifted towards each other, pulled by the magnetic low beats and speaking in hushed whispers. He places your forehead on yours, humming gently to the song. He doesn't try anything too strange, opting to just sway to the rhythm and relishing in the feeling of closeness.
Despite the clamminess between your legs, you dare say that the scene is romantic, akin to the time when he whisked you away to the forest. The love you feel for this man doubles in size as he grins softly at you, kissing your forehead once before claiming your lips. If there's any doubt in your mind before about his affection towards you, it's long gone now.
When the song ends and a more upbeat one starts, he's reluctant to let you go, still dancing closely to the mismatched rhythm. "Let's get out of here." And for once, you couldn't agree more.
---
You didn't notice it at first, but Jungkook's once empty apartment gradually becomes more lively. There's a new plant on the corner of the living room now, books on the coffee table that are solely used for decoration purposes, and he even bought himself a small table in the dining area, a perfect size for the two of you.
"When did you buy all this?"
"Yesterday," he grins sheepishly. "My apartment feels so empty without yo- when it's just me. So, I bought some things to liven the place up."
Without you. That's what he's trying to say, isn't it?
"Okay, I'm beat. Do you mind if I shower first?"
"Yes, of course. Unless you want some help in there?" he teases, taking off his tie and looping it around your neck.
You push Jungkook away with a scoff, though your core burns at the thought. "Perv," you laugh, taking off your heels and placing them on the shoe rack. This time, your heart flutters at the two toothbrushes on his cup and at the identical towels hanging from the rack: one white and one black. Slowly, you're letting yourself into his space and you no longer feel afraid.
Merciful warm water makes your skin sing at the loss of makeup, grime, and sweat. You feel refreshed when you pull your pyjamas over your tired body, the adrenaline from fucking in your school dissipates and you feel a rush because holy shit you're so glad you weren't caught. A quiet chuckle escapes your lips, feeling embarrassed and happy all at the same time. You can't wait to tell Jeehyun about your most recent adventure.
"All yours," you comment, kissing the top of Jungkook's head as you sit next to him on the couch.
"Okay, but we need to talk," he smiles softly. You school your face to neutrality, wondering what it was he wanted to talk about. A billion different thoughts race through your brain, but you hold your panic. Jungkook sighs, oblivious to your increasing distress. "We're presenting the project in a few days… and that means the end of the contract."
Your breathing hitches at the mention of your project. Time has gone considerably too fast for your liking. Sure, the two of you have prepared every possible thing to say, even conferring with Professor Na a few times to run through your presentation, but it doesn't feel real. You're not ready to end things yet. Panic seizes your throat while you search Jungkook's face and your heart drops when you notice how calm he's being.
I love you… and I'm sorry.
Why did he apologise that night? Your blood runs cold when Jungkook's eyes meet yours and you muster a smile, praying that he doesn't notice the pain in your eyes. He whispers your name, oh so gently and before he manages to get another word out… you break.
Jungkook frets, unsure of what to do at the sight of you suddenly in tears in front of him. Hiccups form when you try to breathe, and you fist his crumpled shirt in your hands as the words die in your throat. No, no, no. This can't be the end.
He calls your name again, the same gentle voice that one would use on a frightened animal and you manage to laugh despite your hysteria. Jungkook pulls you closer so you sit on his lap, body thoroughly enveloping yours as he sways you back and forth, his hand coming to cradle your head while the other snakes around your waist. He holds you tightly like that until your breathing evens out, and you wipe the last stray tears on the shoulder of his dress shirt.
"You okay?" he chuckles softly. "That's a huge reaction over me saying your name."
You mumble an affirmative response. Eyes still glassy with tears, but you force yourself to look at him. "Sorry, I didn't mean to- the emotions got the better of me, I guess. You wanted to say something, right? What is it?"
Assuming your nonchalant facade, you let Jungkook hold both your hands and you try to not delude yourself into hope. He takes a staggering breath that almost makes you burst into tears again, but he smiles brilliantly at you. That… has to be a good thing, right?
"I like you," he whispers. And you gape at him, unable to formulate any words. Thankfully, you don't have to because he's already launching off into a speech.
"I've been dying to tell you. I want to rip apart the contract and to just confess to you, but I don't know how you feel. I bought the necklace on a whim and told myself that if you reacted strongly to it, that's how I know it's the right time to confess. If you didn't, then that's okay too. But," he takes a shuddering breath, hands trembling as he grips yours tightly, "I don't want to be friends with benefits anymore. I want to date you. To walk with you in public and to write cheesy facebook posts on each other's walls. I like you. I do."
"People don't use facebook anymore, you know," you mumble dumbly, the words catching in your throat. Why the fuck did you say that? You look away, mind searching through ways to explain to him before it's too late. But, you barely get the words out as you're still chastising yourself at your outburst.
He mistakes your hesitancy for rejection and as though he just touched something hot, he rips his hands away from yours, face falling as he stands. "I thought that maybe you felt the same way. God, I'm sorry, pretend that didn't happen. I'll sleep on the couch tonight. I'll, uhh." He paces across the floor, carding his fingers through his hair.
"Jungkook!" Panic. That's all you feel when you see the way his eyes shine with unshed tears and at the way he's trying to be humorous to save the awkwardness of the situation.
"Look, it's fine, you don't have to force yourself to tell me. I got the memo. Just go to sleep, I'll see you in the mor-"
"Jungkook!" you yell, standing up so abruptly that it shocks him awake, stubbing toe on the coffee table as he whirls around you. As he's wincing over his injury, you pad closer to him, standing so close and glaring in his eyes to make him listen. "Can you please just shut the fuck up for once? You just love the sound of your motherfucking voice, huh? Well, fuck you! I like it too!"
His body stops all movements, breathing stilling as he focuses only on you. "What are you saying?" he whispers.
"I like you too, you asshole," you grin through your tears. "I want to date you too. To hell with the contract and all that shit."
It's with an instant burst of energy that he comes and grabs hold of your body, pulling you into a fervent kiss. He wastes no time to strip his clothes off and helps you out of yours, throwing it away behind him to land in a pile somewhere. He guides you blindly into the bedroom, pushing you on the bed to unbuckle his pants. When he's free, he crawls over you, spreading your legs wordlessly as he reclaims your lips.
When his hot tongue licks the bottom of your lips, you whimper, allowing the appendage in to explore what your mouth has to offer. There's a sense of urgency in his movements, like he needs to feel you now, as though you're a dream and he's about to wake up any moment. You want to tell him to slow down, but you can't, not when his fingers plunge deep into your heat, already making quick work of ruining his bedsheets with your slick. Your back arches as he thumbs your clit, goosebumps form on your skin as he moves to kiss your jaw and your neck.
Jungkook, Jungkook, Jungkook, your mind is filled with only him, each version of the man flickering in your memory. Angry Jungkook that hated you in the beginning, soft Jungkook that lets you play with his hair, romantic Jungkook that stole you away to dance underneath the moonlight and so many other versions of Jungkook that you'll surely come to learn about as the seasons go by. And without the threat of the relationship ending any time soon, you let yourself relax and let go, letting him into your body and into your heart.
There's no need for words when the two of you made love that night, eyes staring deep into one another as twin moans fill the space. Jungkook makes you cum quickly, with slow, deep thrusts into your aching core and kisses that leave you breathless, body pliant as his arms hold you tight.
"Is that good enough for a warm-up round?" he teases, grazing his lips on your nipple as his fingers pinch and roll the other one. With ragged breathing, you only manage to utter half of his name, mind foggy with desire and senses going into overdrive.
"Let's see if you can keep up, huh?" you rasp, finding your voice after a few more languid thrusts.
Jungkook grins devilishly and switches up the pace, pounding you hard into the mattress as his hand leaves imprints on your hips. You grind to match his rhythm, nails digging painfully into his wrists. "Oh, baby," he moans, head tipping upward as he shuts his eyes momentarily. "You're going to fucking cum again, aren't you? Yeah? I can feel your tight little cunt pulsing around me. Fuck, gonna be a good girl and cream on my cock, huh?"
"Jungkook, fuck!"
"Yeah? I'm right here, baby. Let go. Cum for me."
Your second orgasm that night brings tears to your eyes as you hiss his name into the air, your walls clenching so tightly around him that it pulls a ragged moan from his throat. He continues his brutal pace, drilling into you again and again until all you see is stars and all there's left is his name, repeated over and over until you're close to the point of oblivion.
Jungkook's hips finally stutter still and you feel the warmth of his seed painting your walls white. Battered and bruised from all the fucking you've done today, not to mention the rollercoaster of emotions, you barely manage a word out before your eyes drift shut and you feel his strong arms pulling you into an embrace, the covers instantly on your body as he kisses your damp forehead.
"I love you," he murmurs in your ear.
"I love you," he says again softly.
"I love you."

CASWELL COUSINS!!!!! THEY'RE THE BEST!!!!
we needed more if this kind of goofiness for the first part of season 2 that only such an iconic duo can provide.
old old movies-
is it even that old, or is Nini being a gen alpha rn-
i choose to imagine EJ being scared of the movie and hiding in Ashlyn's shoulder while she keeps a straight face and then EJ pretending to be tough afterwards
aww redlyn are soulmates.... yknow, if gingers had souls
(please ignore me)
y'all saw how EJ's face *lit up* when Gina logged on? how dare you tell me he doesn't like her
ofc she's no damsel in distress, she's Gina porter, she's amazing.
so do we think she'd be the type to just glare at suspicious people? or bark at them
do they not know that Rini broke up? or is Ms Jenn just wanting Nini to suffer through her heartbreak to make her a better actress....
speaking of, why is Nini in the call? she's not in the show anymore. Unless she is, even after the rose and the song got cut, which would be so unfair to all those that auditioned properly before she even came back but whatever, she's the main character I get it 🙄
big red is a hero honestly, Nini better thank him for changing the subject like that
I can't-
i won't work you over the break-
this woman would 100% work her kids 24/7 if it was legal and idk how to feel about it.
YES GINA USE THAT CHARM
QUEEN
FRENCH QUEEN
SHE LEARNT FROM THE BEST (antoine obvi)
smh the airport lady, eavesdropping on Gina's call.
The way she was so happy to answer EJ's call, "eej"
I love them your honour.
EJ WITH PAINTED NAILS YES PLEASE
great now we need to see Gina, Ashlyn and EJ having a complete spa day and EJ getting really into it and Gina and Ashlyn take pictures of him when he's laying down in a robe with a mask and cucumbers on his eyes.
finally we get to see Gina's side of portwell
the way she considered it as flirting, this is the sign she asked for in episode 6 come onnnnn
no is Asher/jack really doing tiktok dances in an airport-
Ricky is me. I am burrito.
oh Lynne, sweetie, I'm sorry but the blonde hair is not it
is that even the same lady or-
THE BEAN
THE CHICAGO BEAN
THE BIG OLD METAL BEAN IN THE MIDDLE OF THE CITY 😭
jetlag is my go to excuse for anything... I haven't travelled in 2 years.
"welcome to the Lynne and Mike gossip show. where we talk about our depressed son that we both neglect in certain ways! And now a word from our sponsor, Nord VPN..."
SO MANY CANDLES
WHAT DEMON IS LYNNE TRYING TO SUMMON IN HIS ROOM-
is Nina becoming social media obsessed EJ from season 1? AND SHE LIED ABOUT HAVING SONGS TOO PLEASE WHY ARW THEY RECYCLING THE SAME PLOT-
Gina smiling at the picture of her family on Instagram makes me so happy, idek why.
EJ's nails are so pretty, we needed to see it more (unless he had it on for the rest of the episode and I just.... didn't notice🧍🏽‍♀️)
oh not the tiktok kid✋
yes ma'am end this strange mans whole tiktok career
sir take a hint and leave
GINA NO DONT SAY YOUR LAST NAME HE COULD BE A HUMAN TRAFFICKER
Ricky, walking in style✨
weird kid, ok then Lynne, can't you see he's this close to the edge?
not all your fault baby Ricky, Nini sucks a bit more
RICKY YOU DIDN'T COME DOWN HARD ON THE SONG-
YOU ASKED WHAT IT WAS ABOUT AND SHE SHUT YOU DOWN-
PLEASE DO NOT BLAME YOURSELF
ok but the deleting comment thing was very bad
still don't know if I like Jack honestly
hmmm so Nini's calling herself Nini instead of Nina in her little egg seat, while trying to write a song without inspiration.... Nini, honey, Ricky was your muse, he inspired you to write all those songs, even if it wasn't good for the relationship.
that doesn't mean you gotta get back with him, or that you can't write a song that not about him butttt it'll take some time
the rainbow sticker in her box and her rainbow shirt-
anyways wbk she's not totally straight
Jack are you a criminal?
quick, Gina, check his ankle for a tracker
THE YES AND PRACTICE STRIKES AGAIN
the way Gina wasn't into it in episode 6 but she's used the technique twice now
stole her grandma's Pomeranian-
Jack where the hell did you pull that out from-
the fake crying killed me, that looks like so much fun though
anyone wanna raid a first class lounge with me?
wait so is jack not gonna go in with her?
wouldn't he go in too? help look for the credit card? SO CONFUSED
the first class lounge guy was so into the drama though, watch his face when they start arguing 😭
sorry to break this to you Kourtney, but you haven't even blocked the second act yet soooo...
take that as you will
I love how all of them are totally dissing the dance off
that's the most realistic part of this show tbh
shouldn't Nini have asked how she knew....since the start? why is the fact that her best friend has knowledge of a North high secret now dawning on her...
Howie is sweet honestly, at least he's trying to help. but I stand with Kourtney, don't take him back just because he sang an amazing song, and is giving you a heads up on what's gonna happen...
KOURTNEY IS ME TRYING TO LEAVE AN ONLINE CLASS
I hate school
ooo Nini's writing a song about bad internet connection 🤩🤩🤩
I never lie, except when I do-
son that is the creepiest thing you could say to a stranger that you've been "helping"
2 truths and a lie👀
he's an Ariana fan 100%
called it.
OLDER BROTHER-
WHAT-
free spirit? damn so brother porter was in that horse movie
so has she been kissed or not?????????
I feel like she's moved more than 15 times though so possibly
but then if she's moved so much, and before east high she never opened up to anyone, she's never been kissed then?? damn
same though Gina so let's be besties please
heartbreak president is a great song title idea, give Nini a call rn
but wait
is the no strings attached feeling thing about her telling Ricky she liked him? she thought she was moving away so she thought it'd be no strings attached???
guys I think I figured it out insert the "I've connected two dots" meme
THE DUKE SWEATSHIRT
IS THAT YOUR BOYFRIEND'S
OMG I LOVE I LOVE
NOT THAT I KNOW OF???
ma'am did you just kill me
yes you did
Lynne and Ricky have such a weird relationship
YES IT DID SUCK
TODD SUCKS
LYNNE SUCKS
yeah I get that you wanted Ricky to like Todd BUT THAT WASN'T THE TIME
right so we already know that Ricky was so desperate to keep Nini cuz he didn't want to be like his parents, and now Lynne's talking about this-
Richard needs a long hug
yes Lynne, it is your fault. thank you for finally admitting it.
YES DYE YOUR HAIR
BLOND HIGHLIGHTS RICKY WILL RISE AGAIN
"sometimes the best, last thing you can do for someone you love, is let them go."
gotta admit I teared up at that point
not me thinking big red was calling ms Jenn cupcake for a hot second-
Carlos please omg, you're at the "beach" and they're leaving for the pool?
also, why not just do the call from the hotel room please omg
"don't ask me"
"Carlos"
OMG WHAT HAPPENED
big red wants the tea
O M G
SEB IS JEALOUS
JEALOUS SEBBY IS MY FAVOURITE THING IDC
I'm surprised ms Jenn knew how to give Nini permission to screenshare tbh
So lily's been stalking the East high kids and spending time editing this video while she's supposedly in an immersion trip.... right
EJ and Ashlyn's picture is so chaotic, what even is happening there
"slacking off" bestie its spring break, obviously they're confident enough that they'll get it done in time so why not focus on your own musical.
jealous seb = sassy seb
please what if those guys Carlos is posing with are his cousins or something and that's why he's so confused about Seb
6 YEAR OLD EJ I LOVE HIM I LOVE HIM I LOVE HIM
Nini saying she's obsessed with her ex, that's not weird at all 👍
I can just tell Matt had a blast harassing Julia with those puppets.
Jack please dont be like that, "yet"
chances are you'll never see eachother again 🥰
(honestly sometimes I really miss those friends I made on trips and stuff when we'd spend the day or week together, only to never see them again....those were the good days though)
Ashlyn and Nini should write more songs..... something better than this one at least
Nini: "im good"
cue the Tia Mowry (please I can't spell) crying gif
oh I forgot Ricky was in the show for a hot second
1. where did Gina get to film this without people being around
2. did she just... randomly change her clothes???
ok but the transition between Carlos and EJ
*chefs kiss*
now everyone shut up, EJ's singing
oh i think I'm pregnant
HIS MUSCLES
YES KOURTNEY
I love how big red and Kourtney went from being "the best friends™" to the couple in season 1, to kinda close themselves and having their own plots
sebby makes me so happy
props to biggies editing skills honestly
PORTWELL BEING SIDE TO SIDE I CANT
AND SEBLOS OMG
big red lives for the drama
"wow" so true Ricky
no he is not cute, stop it
"holding" ok that's kinda cute
yeah EJ's a lucky guy😌
jokes aside, it's not that hard to exchange numbers-
keep in touch if you want
ok I really like Jack now
if he comes back in season 3, maybe have him be LGBTQ+ ?
like the only out characters they have rn are Seb and Carlos and they're like the sterotypes, yk?
I'd love to see jack kinda break the mold
Ricky's breaking my heart
that song just hurts
the only thing
now I don't hate Lynne????????
HOW DARE THEY WRITE IN A PROPER REDEMPTION ARC FOR HER
UGH IM SUPPOSED TO HATE HER FOREVER
I mean I don't live her now but she's good
but honestly
"mom can I show you something"
IT WAS SO BEAUTIFUL
THE PICTURE AND EVERYTHING OMG
I'm sobbing please help
Gina saying she's just waiting for the right guy and then EJ coming to the airport to pick her up late at night without her asking, offering to bring her back in the morning so she won't have to Uber, bringing her a granola bar (WHICH IS EXACTLY WHAT SHE FORGOT TO PACK) and without expecting anything in return???
ms ma'am you've got a keeper right there
her smile at the end was so heartwarming I really can't.
this episode was great.
it felt really short but I liked it, great character development for Ricky, Lynne and Gina.
Cant wait for next episode to see more of EJ being the ideal boyfriend /hj

Questions
Cg!Karl
Little!George
//Cg!Sapnap and implied Little!Dream in the end
Karl has a couple videos he needs to edit and to keep himself entertained, George has many questions that need answering from his caregiver
——————
Karl yawned and stretched as he sat up. He ran a hand through his hair as he looked around his bedroom.
After a couple more minutes he finally got up, stretching his arms out before opening his bedroom door and heading into the living room.
What he didn’t expect to see was George sitting on the floor, mesmerized by the colors on a baby cartoon playing on the tv.
He wasn’t surprised that George was regressed, no. He knew about George’s regression and was his caregiver. What he was surprised about was that George was up before him. Normally George is still sleeping in at this time.
When George heard a noise as Karl walked into the room, he moved his eyes away from the tv and looked up at his caregiver.
Karl smiled and sat down beside George “Hi button” he kissed the mentally youngers forehead.
George giggled around the pacifier and handed Karl his bear before standing up on wobbly legs, running towards the kitchen.
A couple minutes past and George comes out with a plate of toast and goldfish, handing it to Karl.
Karl looked up at George and gently took the plate. He handed the little his stuffy back before saying “You made me this, button?
George nodded and sat down beside him, laying his head on his shoulder “beakfast” he mumbled around the pacifier.
Karl smiled and pat Georges head. He didn’t want do disappoint the little by not eating the breakfast but the toast was burnt and goldfish wasn’t really the morning type meal.
“I’m gonna go do some editing honey. Gotta work on videos” He slowly stood but George latched onto his pant leg.
“Wanna come with wanna come with!” George held his favorite stuffed bear in one hand and his bottle in the other. No matter what age he was in little space, he always drank out of a bottle.
Karl thought about it for a moment before nodding and leading the little into his streaming room.
“You can sit here honey and play with your toys okay?” George nodded and sat down on the floor.
Karl hummed as he sat in his chair and turned on his computer. He began working on a video until a finger popped up in his view.
“Whas dat dada?” George asked and pointed at Karl’s editing program.
“That’s what I use to edit my videos, button” Karl answered simply as he went onto google and typed something in.
A few minutes of silence before George’s voice filled the room again “Dada tan we listen to music?”
Karl sighed quietly and nodded “yea we can” he went to YouTube and clicked the search bar “what do you wanna listen to baby?”
“Lion King Lion King!!” George jumped up and down excitedly.
“Lion King again? How about we try Frozen instead? Frozen is good” Karl tried with a smile but he was already moved away from the keyboard as George typed in what he wanted.
In the end the search result was “Lin Kng” but thank goodness for YouTube correcting it.
Karl let out a long sigh before clicking on the soundtrack “Lion King it is”
George giggled happily and continued to watch Karl work.
A couple of moments passed until George had a new question “Dada whas your favorite number?”
Karl looked down at him “Number?”
George nodded.
“Uh I dunno.” Karl shrugged as he clicked on something “Seven is pretty cool I guess”
Satisfied with the answer, George went onto a different question “Do you like kitties?”
Karl nodded “they’re pretty cute”
“Don think Mr. Bun likes kitties” George said, referring to the bear in his hand.
“You don’t think so?” Karl asked, not looking away from the screen.
“Nope. Cause to hims they big and scary”
Karl nodded “Ah, more of a dog type guy?”
George nodded and set Mr. Bun on Karl’s desk “Yea doggies are nice”
Karl nodded in agreement as the two sat in silence once again. Besides the Lion king soundtrack being played through the speakers.
“Dada I don think Mr. Bun likes you” George said, leaning against Karl’s chair.
Karl’s mouth moved to a smile “Really?”
George nodded “Doesn like bedtime”
“Ah, so should I take away his bedtime?” Karl asked, typing and clicking.
“Yea..” George trailed off “I think he’d like it if you took mine away too dada” He suggested.
“Dang, guess I’m gonna have to live with the fact that Mr. Bun hates me”
George sighed and looked down at his bear “I tried”
They sat like that for a while. George asking questions and Karl answering them.
Eventually the room grew quiet and Karl took it as George finally getting bored with the questions.
After a while Karl pushed his chair back and stood up “Alright button! What do you wanna play-“ He looked down at a sleeping George, who was snuggled up to Mr. Bun and asleep on the floor.
Karl chuckled “Must’ve woke up a little bit too early for his liking” he crouched down and gently shook the little.
George whined and slowly opened his eyes “Dada?”
Karl smiled “Hey honey. How about we get you into your bed.”
Too tired to argue, George nodded and took Karl’s hand in his.
The two were cuddled up to eachother in bed when Sapnap and Dream got home. George with a bottle hanging out of his mouth and Mr. Bun held in his arms.
Dream gasped and went to lay down beside George as Sapnap lied down beside Karl.
Karl quietly snuggled up to Sapnap “Did Yknow Mr. Bun hates me” he mumbled into Sapnaps chest.
Sapnap chuckled “Did George try to get out of bed time again?”
Karl nodded in response before closing his eyes again and slowly drifting off to sleep.

Hi hello I just wanna say I love your art, it’s really cute aaaa
I’ve been really wanting to try to doodle dnf because I care them so much and they make me so so happy but my brain rot is not strong enough and I’m nervous to post it if I do so basically do you have any advice for just doing it anyway? I don’t know if making a whole new blog is something I want to/should do
Also I wanna join the loving Demi anon gang so I’ll try to send more asks when I stop being Shy(TM)
-🍎🦜
nonnie thank u thats so sweet of u :’> i appreciate it a lot :’> yknow, u sent this when i was actually in massive doubt abt my art and my... personality?!? HAHA so yeah i definitely been there sis and i’m still there sometimes
firstly, this is actually a more common occurrence than people think! i’ve told this story a few times now to artists who felt exactly the same: when i first posted, i deleted my doodles within a minute (LOL) and it was actually sky georgeliker who reached out asking if he could reblog !! (sorry i dont shut up abt this sky HAHAHA u meant a lot to me even unknowingly <3) i think from that moment, i thought, if just one other person enjoyed what i post, i want to!! there’s literally no harm if no one does anyway bc this is a brainrot blog not a portfolio LMAO. and i am so so glad i did because i then definitely met more than one person lol i even met u ;)) people are so so kind here, and it really changed my perception on both my own art and art as a whole
nonnie i’ve never seen your art but i know for sure i would love to see it, and everyone would too :) there’s no such thing as bad art, and even then sharing will help u improve so much faster!! u can talk to me any time about it too, we’ll learn to improve and be kinder to our art together :>
@ making a new blog: i heard it’s more strategic that way! but only if u want to !! for me personally i separate my dnf blog and my mcyt & general blogs just bc i just like being organized, and bc for dnf in particular, i know a fair amount of people are uncomfy seeing the ship so i try my damnedest not to let non-dnfers find this blog lol. but u really don’t have to do this :o just think about what personally makes u happiest!
anyway here are the more practical tips below the cut ‼️ (finally BAHAHA sorry non)
u can take smaller steps and send art to friends first or to discord servers :> (404cord vouch if u wanna find the most supportive mf’s in the planet)
or u can send me ;D
recognize when u start thinking the bad thoughts! point it out and say “i’m thinking bad thoughts, i have to stop. why should i make myself feel bad? why should i think at all?? this is a brainrot blog??” (is this good advice i am questioning myself shgswjsh this is what i do lmaooo)
point out the things u LIKE from ur art, even really little things. pretend it’s a friend’s work, u’ll be surprised how much kinder u are to others’ creations! if u enjoy parts of it, someone else would enjoy it too and more
don’t be discouraged if u don’t get a lot of recognition or notes immediately, most of that is irrelevant to how actually good ur art is. a LOT of my fave artists have like <200 notes every post (and thats a lot!! its just that i wanna give 10000 lol). it doesn’t mean that the people who DO see it don’t love it
tbh i avoid looking at numbers at all like the plague bc it gives unnecessary pressure !! i have no idea how many followers i have lol (but i do check the tags bc (1) ppl r so supportive i wanna cry and (2) ppl r v thoughtful and sometimes gives interesting input to ur art :> but if it pressures u then u should avoid this too imo)
talk to other artists!! :>
DISCLAIMER, it’s completely okay to take ur time!! there’s no real need to post at all if ur uncomfy. that said, last tip off the top of my head is to consider just slamming that post button, it’s free and u can always delete or edit LMAOO enjoy doodling and blogging!!

here's a little how-to on my method of making gifs on my macbook, but giphy capture is also available for windows:
1. download an app called giphy capture from the app store, it looks like this:
Tumblr media
2. when you open it, it will show you a green rectangle and a record button, the green rectangle represents what portion of your screen will be recorded, and you can change the dimensions with the three lines making a triangle in the bottom right of the window. it should look like this:
Tumblr media
3. press record with whatever you want to make a gif of inside the green rectangle, I've used scrolling through my blog as an example
4. click on the little icon that populates at the bottom bar of the app window, and it will pop out a menu and a preview of your gif. you can trim the video down with the sliders and change the settings for resolution and fps from here
Tumblr media
5. click "save as..." and denote what kind of file you want to save it as and to where, you can do "GIF" and be done with this step.
that final gif looks like this:
Tumblr media
if you want to edit the gif in any other ways, like maybe more defined trimming or a different resolution, or if you want to make two videos play together as one gif, you need to open keynote, which should come automatically installed as an apple app. those steps are explained below.
6. for this step, I save the giphy capture file as an mp4, but it should work if you save it as a gif too. you can open a blank presentation in keynote and delete the text boxes, then drag your video/gif into it.
Tumblr media
7. set the slide background to "no fill" if you want to arrange multiple video files to save as one gif together, so that any space between them will be transparent. we're going to change the size of the slide to exactly fit the gif in the next step though, so you shouldn't have to worry about the background color of the slide if you're doing that.
Tumblr media
8. by clicking on the video and going to the menu titled "arrange" you can see the size, pixel by pixel, of your video. this should be the same number that was shown on the giphy capture green rectangle, and in the options when you saved it. mine is 530 x 528 in this example.
Tumblr media
9. now that you know the dimensions, you can click "document" in the top right corner of keynote, and then click "custom slide size" in the slide size drop-down box. enter the dimensions of your video.
Tumblr media
10. your video should now perfectly fit in the slide, and you should see no black outline. if your video looks small, you can drag the edges of it to resize it, staying proportional, to the size of the slide. if you change the slide size before dragging your video in, it should do that part for you.
11. from there go to file > export as > animated gif and choose your settings and file download location, the usual.
Tumblr media
that final gif looks like this:
Tumblr media
but, if you wanted to make a gifset or something with more than 10 images, bc, yknow, tumblr doesn't like that, you could line up two gifs together onto one file using the keynote steps. if youwso, either way works. is too big, so the whole keynote part might not be worth it to you. I believe you can export powerpoint files as gifs too, and there are ways to convert google slides to gifs as well, if you're working on windows.
but, if you wanted to make a gifset or something with more than 10 images, bc, yknow, tumblr doesn't like that, you could line up two gifs together onto one file using the keynote steps. if you wanted to have two different videos play one after the other as one gif, making the second video on a new slide should make it so when you export it, slide 1 plays then slide 2. I think.
this whole process works if you are recording what you want to gif from your screen, but if you have a video file downloaded on your computer already, you can skip right to dragging it into keynote.

MC Server ಥ_ಥ
Me and a group of friends made our own MC server. Unfortunately, the server was abandoned. Me, being the person I am, still feel the server has potential, so I still play/write lore for it. This may be wayyyy out of the usual for my page but lets be honest, who actively stalks my tumblr page? This is mostly gonna be a place for me to dump the failed server ideas/backstories. So, here goes nothing. If you wanna read them, random stranger, feel free to! I wanted this server to last a while, and we made it almost 2 months with about 12 people in total. So, enjoy!
Word Count: 2,603  (11,679 Characters)
**ALL ORIGINS ARE WRITTEN BY SEPERTE PEOPLE, ALL EDITED BY ME, NONAME**
▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧
Character Origin 1, Seven: Seven was born into a life of poverty, shortly after he was born, he got sold to work as a slave on a sea village, quickly being transferred to a sand village outside of a prison. He did is work as a farmer to a small, yet kind and caring family, who adopted him as their own. His name, Seven, coming from a number tattooed on his neck while in the market. During Seven’s time at this small village, they had a fatal accident, having a berserk enderman ruin the home he had grown custom to. He rebuilt the fallen Village, only to have a Piglin army slaughter whomever remained. Seven only escaped with his life, befriending a Guardian named Marvin, who became his best friend (RIP Marvin, we miss you <3). The Guardian helped Seven grow stronger, and learn to fight. A few years later, he came across two children, Tex and Rox. Seven, taking sympathy for the two, took them as his own. As the revenge grew further from his mind, his children grew older. As they grew, he taught them what he knew about farming and combat. His kids grew older and left him, a crazy old man in a dirt hut with the guardian, forgetting the revenge he wished for many years.  On a normal day, Seven had witnessed something unforgivable happen. He had met Oxlo, Void, and Levi. After spending every waking moment together, the three ended up falling for each other, having adopted Levi and marrying the other two, Seven had have a happy life, with his 3 stolen adopted kids and poly relationship. (End Seven.)
▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧
Character Origin 2, Levi:  Levi was born into captivity from a hybrid mother. By the time he could walk, he was taken from his mother, and raised like a solider. Levi had large, beautiful wings, that got removed as a child, leaving him scared and unsure of who he was all throughout his ‘childhood.’ Being he was a hybrid being, he was used on for testing, by horrid endermen. Having experiments done constantly, he had mutated a mouth (basically Venom from the movie Venom) that he had grown to hate. As Levi grew older, he became rebellious against the unfair people. He gained many cruel and inhumane (lol) punishments. During one of these ‘rebellious moments,’ he had expected to be caught. instead, he was left alone to do so. He heard a loud crash and began to investigate. He had walked outside to see 2 large entities trying to fight against the endermen, and winning. Levi took this as an opportunity to escape. He left the end before the two closed the portal to the end. He blacked out and woke up to a short, sandy blonde man and 2, really tall men, resembling endermen, staring at him. After many, many years of building trust and learning how to communicate, Levi became one of their family.  He Moved out many years later, only to return to his home town to find everything left barren and abandoned. (End Levi.)
Looks: Light blue, messy hair, dark blue eyes, scarf covering his mouth/nose, unhinged and slimy mouth, white and blue tshirt, black jeans  (you can tell this one is my, NoName’s, OC cause he is a lot more detailed LMAO)

Character Origin 3, Tex:  Tex is 15-17, a strider hybrid. He comes from a Nether village called Riften, but now resides in Toadstool Field. He works as a dealer and supplier for the Midnight Mafia. He can easily build and mine, and is also good at navigating the Nether and finding gold (piglins wanted gold all the time so he grew accustomed to getting it) he's obsessive and goes into a blind rage near piglins, and gifts objects and builds often. Tex was a runt in his village, so when it was attacked by piglins when he was 6-8 he was left behind for a offering, after years of being with piglins he came to despise them. He escaped around 11-14. (He isn't good with remembering his age) He had multiple siblings, but cannot remember them very well. He assumes they are dead along with the rest of his village and now only is comfortable around Seven, Void and Levi Tex has pointed ears, and scars from water/staying with piglins. He has sharp teeth. He cannot see well, water is hurtful to him and his memory is bad but he can easily swim in lava/fire resistant. He is twitchy and quick, he has curious movements and is very touchy and talks quickly and mumbly. He wears a magenta sweater, black overalls, purple flowers scattered about and no shoes Tex wants to be renewed in his new family's eyes, he wishes not to be known as a runt he thinks everyone sees him lower bc of him being a runt. Tex doesn't understand human feelings/ striders don't have many emotions, his anger was very new to him he is scared of Piglins/hoglins and hates water
Looks: Messy, dark hair, pointed ears, black eyes, fangs, darker, loosing fitting clothes

Character Origin 4, Amber:
So amber was born in a town called Fransin in the nether and lived there with her single mother, she was bullied a lot as a kid because she didn't have spare money for the nicest clothes or shoes she stayed there until about 15 when her mother had kicked her out because it's the same as her mother did when she was younger, she stumbled upon a portal and went through which lead into dark woods and after wandering around for a bit she came upon Toadstool Fields. She was a bit scared, but after meeting the town's folk she adjusted to the overworld, yes she had a few bumps along the way (especially when her friends suggested they go swimming, as she’s part blaze), but she has grown more and made more friends, plus they even let her build her own home! She has always been grateful because they've always helped her and given her everything she needs, especially since she grew up kinda rough
Looks: Light brown hair, Golden eyes, ash colored freckles, Bee striped shirts
▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧▧
Character Origin 5, Rox: When Rox was young around 4, she was made as a science experiment, (hence the endwalk state that will eventually happen later) she was later sent out to the street after all of those tests (for over 3 years), that she hated so dearly, After about one week on her own in the world, she was soon adopted by seven. She was taught how to fight and defend herself. As she got older, he became smarter and was filled with anger from the past. (hence chaotic good and neutral evil yknow?) So yes, around 16, she married milly and has been with her for a year now, she is just trying help people with her bakery and fight people if necessary (Since she’s in the mafia clan thingy).

Character Origin 6, Void: Void was born in the end, to a noble Enderman, though they don't remember that. They don't remember their original name, or their parents, or anything about their life. All they know is that they're not welcome in the End anymore, being ostracized after a series of unfortunate events in the End. Their first interaction with the Overworld wound up in them in a village and slaughtering everyone in it due to someone making eye contact with them, shortly afterwards picking up the masks to avoid eye contact and avoid looking at the scars on their face. They fled the premises with their sister Redacted and hid deep into the woods, starting on making a mansion for themself and their sister, where they would be safe. They want to keep all those dear to them safe, bordering a bit on possessiveness with the protectiveness. They have a lot of secrets, and in general are an unknown entity to those around them. They're extremely morally ambiguous and run a mafia, with their pet as their right hand man. 
Extra: -Redacted is not Void's blood sister. -Void has worn their masks for so long they don't know what they look like. -Void only takes their mask off to threaten people. -They have such a love of birds because the first mob that didn't run away from them was a parrot. -They hate government because one tried to kidnap them once and study them as an Enderman, using water torture against them. Void escaped and killed a few people, grabbing two masks off the wall as they went to hide their identity.  -Void's eyes are different from fellow Enderman, and if you look into them it's an unpleasant experience for you both. -Void is a peaceful entity until provoked, just like Enderman. -Void has an immense hatred for sand. -Void likes gazing at the stars because it reminds them of gazing into the void in the End, which is where they got their name from. -Void has a dog named Spark because shortly after they found him they were struck by lightning, which they found hilarious.
Looks: Tall  (height unspecified), Dark, fancy clothing, Mask (smile, no he isn’t dream), dark, messy hair)

Character Origin 7, Milly: Milly is a neko hybrid, she's part feline, part human. Her existence came to be when her mother, a neko, and her father, a human, fell in love. She grew up in a small town which wasn't very popular, she wasn't picked on but she did get pushed around by some people growing up. Despite bullies, she had a normal upbringing; her parents were nice and supportive, teaching her everything they could. Her mother often told her how horrible the world can be, teaching her how kindness is a must and how no matter what, she should always help people in need and keep up a smile if she could. Milly followed this advice the best she could. While her mother taught her things through talks, her father tried to teach her things physically: he told her how he agreed, how the world was horrible, so he taught her to fight- to defend herself and protect others with her fighting skills and feline abilities. Although Milly loved her parents and the friends she had, she grew adventurous when she turned the age of 15- she wanted to explore, to see and meet more than she has. Her parents respected her wishes since they loved her dearly, they gave her all the supplies and advice they could before they hugged her goodbye. It wasn't long after that she met Rox, an enderman hybrid who she grew to cherish being around. So, her and Rox got married at 16 and  She moved in with Rox, in the smp she loved living in for all her days. Hence where the story starts. 
Headcanons: -Milly has about five cats she keeps, she loves cats. -She likes to draw, collect flowers, bake sweets, and help out people. -She's a lawful good person and pacifist -She likes dogs but they don't like her :( -She has special feline characteristics: she can jump two blocks higher than a normal person, she can purr, she will take random naps sometimes during the day, she has fangs, and she gets distracted by cat toys sometimes
Looks:  Long pink hair, light pink eyes, collar (it has a bell), white shirt and a pink skirt
