user2 daaaamn, the admin is coming for y'all haters

user3 Of course she had to wear the racing suit... c'mon that's so embarrassing🙄

user3 Yeah but I at least like and respect Kelly... Y/N is a horrible gold digger

user4 well then I'm pretty sure it's your problem, not hers🤷‍♀️

user5 girl stop pretending you care about racing we all know you do it just for pr and cash xdd

lance_stroll As some of you now, I am not very active on social media. Today I'm making an exception for Y/N, my lovely girlfriend I've been dating for almost a year now. She is one of the greatest, most kind, caring and selfless people I know. I don't know where the idea of our relationship being unhappy, one-sided or even insincere came from, but I would like to make it very clear once and for all that these assumptions are as far from the truth as they can be.

In my life, I experienced a lot of hateful comments and reactions myself. It is not something I wish anyone should have to go through and it's disgusting. I love Y/N with all my heart and I hope that one day, she'll make me the happiest man alive and allows me to marry her, build a family together. No one will ever again speak about her in an inappropriate way, or they'll be blocked and possibly face legal actions taken agains them. I am very serious about this.

Y/N, I'm not afraid to call you the love of my life. I never want to see you cry because of some meaningless hater. Love you to the moon and back, sweetheart ❤️

user1 It's just so heartbreaking how Lance himself had to go through so many waves of hate because of his dad and now he had to watch Y/N go through it too...😓

I hope we get some updates from Kai soon, I heard SM requested not to send him letters? And I hope he will be able to rest and regenerate, but social work is so weird, because he's literally home and kinda free, but can't participate in the cb... such a strange arrangement. At least when you're actually in the military you're away. Armchairs saying shit like "oh, he thought the BTS law applies to him?" stfu, cunts for real. But thank you Kim Kai for serving so hard with Rover, the world will remember!

Nope I'm back in Seoul, I'm staying here then going to HK for a moment, idk when I will be back in London and tbh I'm not looking forward to it 😬

AHHHHHHH I SAW SHINEEEEEE TWICE AND ON DAY 2 MINKEY CAME TO MY SIDE AND THEY WERE LITERALLY NEXT TO ME, MINHO TOUCHED MY HAND! AND HE HUGGED SOMEONE TOO. They performed one of their new songs, summer bop me thinks! And DCM DANCE PRACTICE AFTER 1000 YEARS WOW

Omg I hate when the questionable webtoons get adaptations (yes, True Beauty I'm talking about you) idk why they're so popular... maybe a good cast can somehow save it

Can I be a hater again and say that Seonghwa in grills looks so silly, like I'm sorry but asjjsjshahshsdjsjsbs y'all stay safe screaming, shaking and throwing up, but I legit yelled JUMPSCARE when he appeared 😭 guess no matter how down bad for him I am, I still have my limits. He has a villainous face, but he's not a gangster YOU WON'T FOOL ME. Grills make sense on rappers, but otherwise I really dislike them... A biker jacket and grills, oh he really thinks he's a Neo 😬 face card didn't decline ofc he looked hot, just let's keep the mouth closed, amen 🙏🏻 Why can't they do more for the promo pics and why can't they post more photos....

I'd say so far the MG x HJ song sounds the most interesting, overall the songs don't necessarily stand out. And look I like noise and fun, ass shakers are okay, but I need more versatility y'know... They haven't really got me in the trenches music-wise since Deja Vu :/ that was the last song that was an instant hit for me since the teaser dropped. Yep can't believe I'm saying this, bc as much as I like the lore and used to be sooooooo into it, it is kinda limiting at this point

GODDDD LOOK AT THIS MODEL https://twitter.com/ATEEZofficial/status/1661964508825518081?t=MXO020zlvR_OTmI30opndQ&s=19 he's literally wearing YSL sandals (Ten wore the same ones...) so what's stopping them from inviting him to their events I'M SO SICK AND TIRED 💀💀💀💀 and the glasses too?! https://twitter.com/8teez_world/status/1662472208978006018?t=NB54XML0PEs9oD2mTR6c1A&s=19 I don't even like YSL much, cause they've been designing the same shit for years, but I'll get him that sponsorship!!!

Donatella followed SKZ, oh Hyunjin is definitely getting that Versace bag!!! Put him on the runaway too 👀 I just need to free Felix from LV and get him a more interesting deal

Yes I am taller than Ten, he wore heels but so did I, so nice try boy. Unfortunately did not manhandle him, BUT I did shoot my shot and said hi also told him he looked great and he responded, so we're best friends now <3 so Black Opium is quite strong, I like strong perfume for fall and winter or evenings

Uhhhhm Krystal at Cannes, meanwhile https://www.koreaboo.com/news/former-girls-generation-member-jessica-jung-blanc-eclare-evicted-not-paying-rent/ I heard she's doing well in China though, she's on the 2nd season of Great Dance Crew too, but everything about her business endeavours has been questionable

I'M SEEING TAEYONG FINALLY. God I really thought I'd have to sit through an NCT 127 gig just to see him, so bless his upcoming album!

Lmao the Bangpink wattpad writers from 2017 are living right now, Taennie, Taelisa content 👀👀👀👀 this is all very amusing to me, especially Army x Blink meltdowns

In need of Refueling, Chapter 1 - Start

Summary: “You?! Why would I trust you? You have brought me nothing but failure. Time and time again; nothing but disappointment!”

His father's words might have been a result of his possession by the White Bone Spirit, but whether or not they were his true thoughts, Red Son vows to prove them wrong. To do so he seeks to attain a power strong enough to destroy his father's immortal enemy. After all, he'd much rather throw fire at his problems.

Word Count: 902

Ratings/Warnings: Teen and up; injury, burns, angst and hurt/comfort, toxic thoughts caused by toxic parents

Notes: This fandom is just starting out and I don't see that many continuous fics for it out there. So I guess if I want to see one, then I'll have to make it myself! I hope y'all enjoy it! Big thanks to @painted-arachnid and @simplyfornardo for helping me bounce ideas off of them. And also thanks to @lemonsqueazie for providing me with "Journey to the West" lore. I don't know much about the original novel or other iterations, but I still tried to keep some things compliant with the lore. You should check all of them out, since they're really great content creators with neat ideas!

Read on AO3

———-

“You?! Why would I trust you?”

Red Son recalls his father’s words the day that the White Bone Spirit had possessed him and they had to be assisted by their own enemy in order to free his mind. He is trying his best to meditate and control his thoughts. He was never particularly good at meditation. He is much better with action than thoughts or words. Still, his analytical mind attempted to focus on the task at hand - trying to figure out a way to bring his father the glory he deserves. But these petty thoughts of that day keep coming back to him. He resists the urge to tug at the tails of his jacket, as he sits cross-legged in his room.

Yes, the Demon Bull King had been possessed at the time, but how much of what he said had been his inner thoughts? They had to simply be the ravings of a demon possessed by another demon.

“You have brought me nothing but failure.”

This is true though, isn’t it? The weather station, the race, the skeleton key - Red Son really had failed every time he tried to defeat that Noodle Boy and Dragon Girl on his own. He always needed help; rescue. He feels flames bristle at the back of his equally flaming red hair, and the tip of his pony tail twitches in the heat.

No! Red Son shifts his thoughts back to figuring out what to do now. He is an engineer; he works out difficult problems all the time! He’ll definitely think of something! He made his father’s armor! That’s certainly been useful! Ergokinetic absorption was such a handy ability - stealing energy to make energy, and the more powerful the substance, the more powerful his father would become! That was the first thing he had presented to his father when he was released from imprisonment beneath the mountain. His father had liked that. Perhaps Red Son could make another piece of armor or a weapon for his father that would be even better! It was the armor that helped give his father strength enough to combat the Monkie Kid! Not enough to defeat him though. And if he couldn’t defeat the Monkie Kid, he probably couldn’t defeat the Monkey King himself. And it was also that gift that allowed the White Bone Spirit the means to possess the Demon Bull King in the first place...

“Time and time again; nothing but disappointment!”

Red Son’s thoughts come to a standstill. His dark eyes blink open, staring at nothing. He has to remember to breathe.

Red Son squints his eyes shut, angry at the interrupting thoughts of his father’s words. But they weren’t his words. Right? He didn’t really think those things. He wasn’t a disappointment! He wasn’t a failure! He just needed to find the right way to prove that he could be useful to his father. That he could be strong!

Maybe that was the key! Some new form of strength! Some new power that Red Son himself could attain, so as to stop being the weak link in the chain of his family. For that he’d need some sort of ancient artifact or power source. That was what his parents seemed interested in anyway. Despite his numerous attempts at providing them with modern technological solutions like the weather station or even the internet, they seemed intent on focusing on older more “reliable” power sources. If that’s what they wanted, then Red Son would try to focus on that, too. Besides, going by the same logic of the very armor that he had made for his father, the older and rarer the item, the greater the power it could potentially hold. Perhaps it would even make him strong enough to help bring down the Demon Bull King’s greatest foe - the very one who had buried him in the mountain for hundreds of years.

That was it! If Red Son could defeat the Monkey King or provide his father with the means to do so, then he would surely be someone deserving to be called the son of the Demon Bull King! Red Son latches on to this thought like a lifeline, pushing down the echoes of his father’s words of “failure” and “disappointment.” Well, he would be neither of those things! Whether or not his father truly meant those words, Red Son would prove them wrong on principal.

He attempts to not get entirely carried away by some of his fantasies, however, with a bit of logic. Where to start? Who would know of an ancient power source and be willing to divulge such information? He couldn’t let his parents know. It had to be a surprise. He could present it to them himself. Perhaps even test it out first...

Habits die hard, and Red Son finds himself turning to the internet for answers. Just because he’s going to find an old school solution, doesn’t mean he has to completely forget about modern conveniences. Apparently the Demon Bull King family weren’t the only demons running around the city. There had been sightings of others, and hints as to what they wanted. But one demon in particular stands out to him. One who is highly dangerous, but incredibly ancient and would be the most likely one who holds the answers he is looking for. And he could find her lurking underneath the city.

It's a start.

Final Fantasy XIV: A Quick(ish) Summary As Told By Someone Too Lazy To Recheck Exact Times/Things

1.0- We don't talk about it

A Realm Reborn (ARR)- for some strange reason the world got like, completely blown up 5 years ago, crazy! You are some dumb kid from nowhere in particular, with nothing but the clothes on your back and a weapon that is little more than a chunk of wood, or a book. Possibly just your fists. You have got 50 levels and a shitload of lore to get through until you reach the first expansion.

Essentially: you don't have enough money for chicken nuggets, your fashion game is nonexistent, and every high level player calls you a sprout and exhibits Concern about your every action (they mean well).

Garlemald bad, Ascians bad, Eorzea uhhh trying to be good but kinda racist/capitalist/pirates with a history of colonialism, Coerthas is French Catholic and in the Crusades with the dragons. Hydaelin... good? Confusing, for sure, often referred to as Mother in text. Primals bad and scary, but fortunately you are immune to their mind-fuckery techniques thanks to Crystal Mom and surprisingly good at kicking their asses. Garleans mad that you ""savages"" keep killing Primals, despite having a whole mandate against Primals and Primal summoning. Ascians mad that you keep killing Primals because Ascians are dicks. People die, there is an amnesia plot, some annoying twerp is annoyingly right about a lot of things and also you can't get rid of him, Moogles, possession, fucking Ancient Aliens Allagans (if it's a problem in ARR, it's Ascians or Allagans aight), and hey ho you go and kick Garlean asses until they throw a giant machine at you that they stuffed full of Primal juice. Such devastation-!

Then there is the slightly post ARR stuff, where we're still level 50-ish but not really into the next expansion. So basically, we meet Dragon Dad who slaps Crystal Mom's blessing off of you to build character, Ascians are once again dicks, Who The Hell Names These Things, wow Lysanderoth you're definitely not suspicious at all, and our annoying twerp is dabbling in politics and for some reason you're getting fond of him?? Just in time for...

Heavensward (Lvl 50-60)- Congratulations, you are now an enemy of the state! We return/flee to French Catholic Coerthas/Ishgard, where we get to room with our Dear Friend, Haurchefant.

Don't mind how all the high leveled players have started crying. This expansion is emotionally devastating, has a great storyline, and also features canonical consensual dragon vore as a plot point. You know that tweet that's all "Church bad because they won't let you fuck dragons"? Yes, that's Heavensward. You will still cry. We embark on an epic road trip with the annoying twerp (ft his existential teenage crisis), a famous dragon killer and sadboi, and a famous lady who advocates peace/fucking dragons. Somehow, none of you kill each other. Instead, you murder a weirdly attractive bug-man with good music and a desire for violence, a giant flying whale, and some old dudes. You also beat up the same Ascian from the first bit, again. And again, in his final(?) form. Dragon Dad has come along to watch your progress, and also check on his kids cause he's actually, y'know, the entire progenitor of the dragon race. Wow! His family is very sad, mostly. But he does like you, so hey, he can adopt you and have one kid that turned out ok and happy! Hahahahha there's no therapists in Eorzea :')

Then we get to deal with "Hey we ended your like 500 year+ Crusade and kind of upended your social structures, y'all good?" (no), something something Warriors of Darkness, something something Urianger sus, then ALISAIE JOINS THE PARTY. I love her ok, let me have this. She's the annoying twerp's twin, and she's more inclined to hitting things that politics and philosophy. She's also kind of crushing on you. Also Minfillia kinda fucks off to nowhere, which is weird, b/c she has been Important but also Not Involved with the plot for like. 8 years.

Stormblood (Lvl 60-70)- Return of Lysanderoth! Briefly. Before he fucks you over, again. And a bunch of other people, honestly. But hey, this puts Eorzea in open contention with Garlemald for the first time in years, instead of them hovering in an uneasy cold war. For the first goddamn time in the game, you canonically get your ass kicked. Hard. So hard you decide fuck it! And go overseas to Fantasy Japan/China to visit some nice people you helped out earlier. You get catfished. You meet a weeb. There's some pirates, and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. There's Ravana take 2, this time in a slightly more 'Forever 21' phase. Wild, young, free, REJOICE.

You attempt to inspire rebellion (since your character doesn't talk much, this is quite difficult). Garleans crack down, and hey look, the dude who kicked your ass is back! Prince Zenos Yae Galvus, as by this point you've hopefully learned, even if you're bad with names like me. He kicks your ass again, but this time we break his helmet, and wait shit is he... kind of hot? Maybe? Fuck?? He pins you to a wall and tells you to find him later, it's all confusing and prompts strange butterflies in stomachs. (Side note: as a lesbian, I am making some assumptions here. Mostly based off of how I reacted to the idea of Tsukuyomi doing the same. Mm.)

Then he promptly fucks off, and to work off that sexual tension you square up and work with local friends on Rebellion! You get help from some neighboring nomads after proving you're cool enough to tame a bird, and this proves enough to free the area from Garlean control (for now). We go back to Eorzea, and prepare to kick Zenos' head in. He's playing hard to get though, so we gotta get through some other folks, learn hard lessons about war/colonization, and feel bad. AND THEN WE KICK HIS- oh no wait. Is he... coming on to us again? Oh jesus man, get a therapist, oh my god, this is awkward for us both. Turns out he's kinda depressed and just wants you. To fight him. To the death. There is some bullshittery and he becomes dragon. Fails to kill you, so he kills himself. (Spoiler: it doesn't stick)

The Garlean Empire is now pissed off at you, and Eorzea in general. Everyone is kung-fu fighting, but oops, Garlemald is preparing to commit ~war crimes~! Someone is doing something weird, which is making your Scion friends fall into comas, which is both very convenient and highly inconvenient, cause all of you are kinda needed right now! Zenos, or something in his body, is causing trouble as well. Look, even when we thought he was dead he was causing trouble.

Shadowbringers (Lvl 70-80): We find out what's been making our friends pass out- someone from another dimension has been trying to yoink you over to them, and like all attempts at using the Rescue spell, it just sometimes leads to hilarious accidents. In this case, some epic lag, so although your friends have only been out of it for a week or two at most, they've been in this other world for 5 whole years in some cases. Turns out, Garlean war crimes are all an Ascian plot (what isn't, by this point), and mysterious Crystal Exarch is hoping you can save this world and your own.

At this point, Yoshi P, the lead developer, pulls out a gun and asks if you've been doing all those side-quests and optional 48 man raids. He worked very hard on those, you know. He put in lots of lore. Then he asks if you remember all those dangling plot hooks from previous expansions. We're addressing a lot of those. And adding more. You are sweating and nodding frantically while scrolling a wiki on your phone.

You get to feel like you're in an Otome game, because there's two dudes being weirdly polite and interested in you, but also real snappish to each other in terms of "fuck off she's mine". Alisaie and Alphinaud off-screen character development. Urianger still sus. Thancred now a dad? Y'shtola still so good. A lot of things happen, and you get progressively sadder as the expansion goes on. You get a nice, great big burst of hope and love, and then SOMEONE is a DICK with a GUN. (It is not Yoshi P.)

Now you just feel bad. Your character feels bad. This is all build up for the A) some motherfucking revelations and B) the utter catharsis of "If you could take one more step... would you?" "What, all by myself?" "THROW WIDE THE GATE"

I have shed legitimate tears over Shadowbringers ok, between the music, story, and pacing it is an Experience. Oh my god tho, all the music from Shadowbringers is so good. La-HEE

#ffxiv #theres some spoilers in there but its all p nondescript #again: i aint checking exact facts here folks this is all in good fun
