You stood back, looking at the loose outline of a song you had just scrawled across the chalkboard wall in your room. You had a good feeling about this one. All you needed was one good afternoon to sit down and put it to music before it would be ready for the citizens of Boston. You had picked up a couple of regulars after eight months of busking, they enjoyed your original songs and had even bought the shitty CDs you'd made with a mixture of covers and original material. Speaking of busking...
You looked out your window to make sure the bright, cloudless sky hadn't changed since sunrise, then grabbed your acoustic guitar and headed out.
The sun shined on you as you made your way through the streets of Boston, past restaurants and studios, across crosswalks and through the crowds. As you passed the Sunrise Theater, your thoughts fell warmly on the fond memories you had already made there. It had been a few weeks since Rumors in the Night started weekly gigs there. The money was doing you well, but you still took to the streets two or three times a week. It wasn't even really for the money, although a couple extra dollars from passerby was a bonus. What you really loved was the performance, sharing a part of yourself with an indifferent world. If you could bring a smile to the face of just one lonely passerby, you felt you had done good.
You set up in the shadow of a bank, in a small alcove where the walls would push your voice outwards. You sat your donation jar at your feet and unzipped your guitar case, pulling it out and beginning tuning. When everything was set, you began to sing.
"Honey, honey, honey / Who could be sweeter than you / Honey, honey, honey / Bitter sweet, but what can I do." 
You were completely carefree, singing on the streets of Boston. This city was beginning to feel a bit like home, although you knew you wouldn't be here for long. Your eyes were still fixed on LA, on the lights of Hollywood. You longed to see your name in lights, headlining at the Hollywood Palladium. 
"Lord it's been good to talk to you / Even sweeter than wine / Don't take the love light away / Cause I'm far away from home / Daddy, all I'm trying to tell you / Lord, I really love you, love you, love you."
This was a good song to warm up with, medium paced and not too vocally challenging. It sounded better with a full band, though. You would have to ask Fatima if you could put it on the setlist for your gig in the park this weekend.
"Honey, honey, honey, hi / honey, honey, honey hi / honey, honey, honey hi."
You watched a child come up and drop a few coins into your jar and you smiled, leading straight into your next song. You ran through Have You Ever Seen The Rain by Creedence Clearwater Revival, Waiting on the World to Change by John Mayer, Silver Springs by Fleetwood Mac and a couple others you had in your repertoire. You liked to finish up with Thank You for the Music by ABBA, it was a favorite of yours but it took a while to warm up for.
"Thank you for the music, the songs I'm singing / Thanks for all the joy they're bringing / Who can live without it, I ask in all honesty / What would life be? / Without a song or a dance what are we? / So I say thank you for the music / For giving it to me."
There was no one around, but you didn't care. This song meant something to you, and you were going to sing it for the world to hear.
"So I say / Thank you for the music, for giving it to me."
As you finished the song, a familiar face appeared in front of you. 
"You take requests?" Frankie asked, a smile tugging at his lips. 
You chuckled, grabbing our water bottle and taking a quick sip. "Yeah, if I know 'em. I was just about to pack up for lunch but one more song won't hurt. For a friend, of course."
"A friend?" he asked, a gleam in his eye.
"An acquaintance. Someone I know. But anyway, hit me."
"Landslide," he said, and you rolled your eyes. "What!? It's my favorite."
"You could pick something a little more original," you teased as you tucked your pick into your pocket and started to pluck the opening of the song. Frankie backed up against the lamp post to your right, settling his arms across his chest.
"I took my love, I took it down / I climbed a mountain and I turned around / and I saw my reflection in the snow covered hills / 'til the landslide brought me down."
The song was well known, and it brought you a small crowd almost immediately.
"Oh mirror in the sky, what is love / can the child within my heart rise above / can I sail through the changing ocean tides / can I handle the seasons of my life," you smiled softly, looking at the faces around you as they stopped to watch. 
"Well I've been afraid of changing cause I built my life around you / but time makes you bolder even / even children get older / and I'm getting older too."
You closed your eyes, letting the music take you over. You lost yourself in the song until it was over and the five or so people around you were clapping quietly and nodding in appreciation. 
"Thank you, thank you," you stooped to place your guitar in its case, watching from the corner of your eye as the onlookers drop a dollar or two into your jar. You looked up when you saw a twenty flutter into the jar, your eyes meeting Frankie's kind gaze.
"No, no I can't-"
"Nonsense," he said, "I liked your music, and you deserve it."
You zipped up your guitar case, taking the bill from the jar and pressing it back into Frankie's hand. "I can't take your money, Frankie."
He chuckled at your persistence. "Alright, alright. You said you were headed to lunch?"
You shrugged, "I was gonna go home, maybe make myself some ramen…"
"On a day like this?" Frankie shook his head, then jerked it to the side, asking for you to follow him. "C'mon, we're getting you some real food."
You huffed out a breathless laugh as you slung your guitar case across your back. "Maybe that's a good idea. I've been living here for nine months and the only restaurant i've ever really been to is the Thai place over on Matthews."
"You can't be serious," his voice was thick with disbelief as he looked back at you. You nodded, confirming your statement was true and he hadn't heard you wrong.  "What about the others, Ezra and them… Are they the same?"
"Ezra's a native Bostonian, but he's not big on restaurants. Julian and Cade both moved here around a year ago and me and Fatima have been here for nine months, we moved together. So we're all pretty new here, except for Ezra." You watched with curious eyes as Frankie waved to a man across the street selling snow cones. He was just so personable, no wonder it felt like you'd known him forever even though it had only been a couple of weeks since you met. He adjusted his gait for a second so you'd fall into place beside him, and for a moment you felt your heart flutter. 
"I'm from Eastern North Carolina, originally-"
"I can hear it, you've got a bit of an accent," there was a twang to some of the words he spoke, something that gave him a bit of a southern gentleman flair. And he was a gentleman, as far as you could tell.
He laughed at that, nodding in agreement. "Folks here say that too. I moved her when I was eighteen but I guess it never really left me."
"You can take the man out of the south-"
"But you can't take the south from the man," Frankie finished. His cheeks were tinted a little pink, a smile falling into place on his lips.
Momentarily, you paused to admire him. "Do you miss home?"
He shrugged, "Yeah, I miss it sometimes. I go back once a year over the summer, to visit my family. My sister and my nephews are still down there, and my mom and dad. But this is my home now, I don't think I'll ever leave."
You found yourself in front of a corner hotdog shop, and Frankie opened the door for you. The place looked like it was straight out of the 60's, checkered tile and all. "This is real food?"
Frankie looked offended as he sat down in one of the booths. "And here I thought you'd appreciate this," he pulled one of the menus out and handed one to you as you slid in across from him. 
You looked over the menu, looking for something that would catch your eye. "What do you suggest," you asked Frankie, laying your menu flat and tucking your feet up under the booth so you wouldn't kick him.
"This." He pointed out a burger, and you had to admit it looked good. "Best burger I've ever had, I swear on everything holy you'll love it."
The waiter came and took your orders, you got the burger Frankie had suggested and a strawberry milkshake to go with it. Afterwards, you found yourself staring off at the Jukebox by the counter. You wondered what they had in there, and if it was automated or authentic.
As if reading your thoughts, Frankie tossed you a quarter. You barely caught it, watching in confusion as he stood. "It's old school, just like everything else in here." You followed him over to the jukebox, and laughed when he pulled out a pair of reading glasses to see the small print of the track listing.
"What are you, fifty?" you teased.
"Watch it," he returned with a playful glare. "I'm paying for your lunch."
"Frankie you don't have to-" you started, but he shook his head.
"I'm paying, end of story. Can't have you thinking I'm not a gentleman." Your eyes fell on the gentle crinkles by his eyes that showed up when he smiled, and you wondered how anyone could mistake him for anything other than a gentleman. But you kept your mouth closed. "Now c'mon, pick a song, Songbird."
* * * * * * * * * * *
That night you found yourself sitting with Fatima, eating ice cream and watching a baking marathon on the food network. But your thoughts weren't on the contestants' lemon meringue pies. You were staring at the wall, your lunch with Frankie running through your head. Your lunch… date? No, that wasn't a date. That was just a lunch between acquaintances. Between friends.
You began to turn to Fatima, but as always she was ahead of you. She had turned down the TV and was already turned towards you, waiting. "He likes you."
You weren't even surprised, Fatima knew you better than anyone else. Of course she knew what you were thinking. "You think so?" you asked, and Fatima glared at you.
"Yes, I know so."
You tucked your knees against your chest, pulling your spoon out of your tub of Ben and Jerry's and chewing on it a little. Frankie was a kind man, you didn't want to read too much into his actions. But still, he had taken you out to lunch. And payed for your meal. And given you a nickname. "He called me songbird," you mused.
"Thats… That's adorable oh my god." Fatima sighed wistfully, eating a spoonful of her ice cream. "You should invite him to the show on Saturday!"
"I did. Well, I really just told him about it. But he said he'd be there. Is Landslide on the setlist?" you asked, and Fatima nodded. "Good. It's his favorite."
"What would you say if he asked you out?"
"I think…" you paused, but there was no need to. "I think I'd say yes."
End.

Something There (M)
Tumblr media
Genre: Smut, Romance Pairing: 2Jae Word Count: 2.6K Summary: This wasn’t the life Youngjae wanted. But perhaps Jaebeom isn’t the monster he thinks he is.
Tumblr media
Youngjae sighed as he stood out in the large garden, eyes scanning over the frozen ground. Normally winter would be his favorite season, but given the circumstances, he was currently living in, he couldn't fully come to love this place. It was a prison that mocked him. Just beyond the large wrought iron fence was his freedom, a trail that led back home. Just beyond his fingers grasps. So close, yet so far away.
Closing his eyes for a moment, Youngjae tilted his head up towards the sky as the wind began to blow, a chill running down his spine. “Youngjae.” The voice had him jumping and he turned quickly, dark eyes landing on the man before him. “It's freezing out here, come inside.”
Youngjae stared at him before turning away, eyes downcast as he studied the snow beneath his shoes. Anything was more interesting than staring at his captor.
“Youngjae.” he tried again, his eyes boring holes into the young male refusing to look at him.
“I'm fine.” Youngjae breathed out softly. He just wanted the other to leave. He wanted to be alone in peace, enjoying the few things that this prison had that brought him peace. Granted it wasn't a horrible place to live, a large mansion that had everything Youngjae could possibly want or need, and as far as he knew it was all at his disposal. But he didn't want luxuries. He wanted to be home, with his family, his dog. Back in the village filled with his friends and yes some unsavory characters. But every unsavory character made the small village his home.
Instead, he was there, locked away in Im Manor. All for money. While he was sure the amount of money he had been traded for would help sustain his family long enough for the new spring season to bring a bountiful harvest, he wasn't happy about this arrangement. Though better him than his sister. Who knows what horrible things this man would do to a vulnerable young girl like her.
Though more and more each day he was beginning to doubt that she would have been in any peril. No, it seemed that Youngjae was more to the tastes of the Master. Perhaps that's why he had been traded and a deal struck so quickly.
Another shiver ran through him as the wind picked up once more. He let out a soft huff as he wrapped his arms around himself, trying to cling to all the body heat he possibly could. Snow crunched under heavy boots behind him and Youngjae braced himself as arms wrapped around him, pulling him back against a strong chest. Heat seemed to flood him at the extra body heat and he was both relieved and yet so pained, even conflicted. This man-made him feel things that he had never felt before and it scared him. Youngjae didn't want to give in to the sweet words and promises that fell from this man’s lips day in and day out. Surely such things couldn't be real, not when he had been taught it was wrong. This was wrong.
“Jaebum please.” Youngjae struggled to whisper out. The arms around him tightened, pulling a soft whimper from his lips.
“Stop this Youngjae.” Jaebum said softly, his lips pressed close to Youngjae’s ear. “You've been here many months now and I've been nothing but kind and patient with you.” He reminded the other gently. “I would never do anything to hurt you, yet you continually reject me. Your denial will not change the fact that you belong to me now.” His voice came out in a soft whisper, head-turning slightly so his lips brushed against the cold shell of Youngjae’s ear. “Don't you think it's time to give up on this fight and just give in?” He asked lowly.
Youngjae shivered at the hot breath running over his ear and the equally hot voice whispering in it. His heart was pounding in his chest as butterflies fluttered in his stomach. Again, feelings were racing through him that confused him so much, yet Youngjae wanted to give in very much. Because despite the confusing feelings that Youngjae felt there was one feeling that was the strongest, one that he honestly craved and was one of the reasons as to why he didn't fight Jaebum off every time he wanted to touch him, to hug him.
It was want. He felt wanted, needed, and dare he say even loved? Whether or not Jaebum did love him was a question he didn't have the courage to ask. But he let himself think it nonetheless, which is what made it so hard to not give in each time. But maybe...maybe he should. He was never going to leave this place. It was his home now, maybe he should stop fighting his fate.
“I don't want to fight anymore” Youngjae finally whispered, his cheeks flushing at the confession. Jaebum smiled slightly, a soft chuckle leaving his lips as he pulled Youngjae further against him. “But I-”
“You're in good hands.” Jaebum assured him, cutting him off. “Trust me Youngjae. I will keep my word. I will never do anything to hurt you.” He said. Youngjae could feel a soft smile spreading over his lips, knowing that he could somehow trust the other. After all Jaebum has waited so patiently all this time, while Youngjae did all he could to keep the other away and outwardly show how much he hated this arrangement.
“I trust you.”
~*~
Laying back on the large and lavish king-sized bed, Youngjae shifted himself enough to prop himself up on his elbows. His eyes followed Jaebum’s every movement, watching the other male as he drew closer to the bed. His heart pounded harshly in his chest, making it almost impossible to breathe correctly. He was scared and nervous, worried that this wasn't going to be anything he thought it would. Then again he never thought he would be having sex with another man. But there was just something about Jaebum that he couldn’t help but see himself with the other. He was kind and caring, patient, and gentle. He never once showed an ounce of anger towards Youngjae and that was probably the reason why Youngjae grew so fond of him. It was inevitable. Something that happened unconsciously but now that it was brought to light, it actually made him a little happy.
“Will this be your first time?” Jaebum asked carefully, his eyes looking Youngjae over and the other had to flush. He wasn’t making fun of him, at least as far as Youngjae could tell. He was just honestly curious and probably for a good reason. Youngjae may be ‘innocent’ or ‘new’ to many things, but that didn’t mean he hadn’t heard stories. Because he had. He heard all the stories associated with sex and that for women it would hurt. He could only assume it would be painful for a man as well. “Don’t worry, I’ll do my best to make it enjoyable for you.”
A promise that Youngjae hoped the other kept. Chewing on his bottom lip, Youngjae scooted back slightly on the bed, legs drawing up as Jaebum sat next to him. He felt shy, inexperienced, and scared. He trusted Jaebum, he did, but that did nothing to help his fear of the unknown. Even though he knew what they were going to do, he didn’t know how it was going to go, or how it would feel. That’s the scary part of the unknown for him.
“Just relax.” Jaebum cooed out as he shifted and leaned over Youngjae. Youngjae swallowed thickly, falling back onto his back as he stared up into Jaebum’s eyes, flushing lightly.
“I’m sorry.” Youngjae whispered and looked away shyly. “It’s kind of hard to relax when...when…” Laughter filled the other and he looked back at Jaebum as the other continued to laugh.
“We don’t have to do anything right now.” Jaebum assured Youngjae. “We can take it as slow as you want. Just trust me.”
“I trust you but I’m just...scared.” Youngjae whined softly.
“Close your eyes Youngjae. Let me show you there is nothing to be scared of.” Reaching up, Jaebum ran his fingers through Youngjae’s hair slowly before moving them down and stroking his cheek and neck. “Close them.” he urged. He watched as Youngjae closed his eyes, his body still stiff under him. Jaebum smiled softly as he leaned down slowly and pressed their lips together slowly. It was a soft and gentle kiss, his first kiss with Youngjae. His lips were so soft and pliant, molding under his. He could feel Youngjae slowly relaxing under him the longer the kiss continued and he smiled. Pulling back, he dragged his lips down, pressing gentle kisses against Youngjae’s neck lightly. Moans fell from parted lips and Jaebum dared to nip at the soft flesh.
Youngjae panted, chest heaving as strange sensations ran through him. He could only assume this is what pleasure felt like. He had never done anything like this with someone and he never dared to touch himself, living in the small home that he had lived in. He had no experience, but this felt amazing and he liked it, a lot. “Jaebum.” he breathed out. He felt hands slip under his shirt, icy cold fingers running over the expanse of his bare sides and chest. A harsh shiver ran through him, making his body tremble under the other’s touch and Jaebum chuckled.
“You’re so sensitive.” he whispered, his fingers running circles over Youngjae’s body, nails racking teasingly against him. Youngjae whined as he felt goosebumps rising on his skin, his nipples hardening unbelievably so from just the touch. Jaebum’s fingers moved up and circled each hard nub, flicking them lightly, a smile spreading over his face as Youngjae’s body arched and he vocalized how much he loved having his nipples teased. “Do you like that Youngjae?” he asked and smirked, watching as Youngjae nodded his head quickly.
“It feels...really good.” Youngjae breathed out in pleasure, whimpers falling from his lips as Jaebum plucked and flicked his nipples a few more times. Jaebum pinched his left nipple, twisting it slightly and Youngjae gasped out loudly back arching. His mouth fell open and a long moan sounded as his hips lifted and fell on the bed, pants rubbing against himself in much-needed relief and friction against his hardened cock.
Jaebum was so pleased with the reaction of the other, a smirk crossing his features as he used his free hand to hold Youngjae’s hips down some, but it seemed regardless Youngjae was going to buck and rock against the air the longer Jaebum pinched and twisted his nipples. Jaebum moved his hand further down and cupped Youngjae, the younger male jerking and bucking up into the hand. The sudden pressure against his erection has Youngjae practically seeing stars. It felt so amazing and he loved it.
“Oh my god.” Youngjae breathed out and arched himself in every touch the other was giving him. God this was something else, an experience that Youngjae never would have imagined would feel so good. It felt so damn amazing. The fingers moved and pinched his other nipple, causing another surge of pleasure to course through him. “J-Jaebum!” Youngjae reached out, gripping at the hand pressed against him, rubbing and squeezing. His body felt weird, so worked up and like something was trying to come out. He was scared of what it meant and he wanted Jaebum to stop. But the other didn’t. He continued to tease him. “St-stop! I’m going to….pee.” he gasped out embarrassingly
“Shh, no you’re not.” Jaebum whispered softly. “Just relax and let it out Youngjae. Trust me.” Jaebum assured, voice deep and husky, laced with lust. He gave Youngjae another squeeze and palmed him harder.
“Oh god.” Youngjae’s voice shook as he pressed himself further into the bed. He was trusting Jaebum and allowed himself to relax once more, focusing on the pleasure, the feelings. “Ah~!” he choked out a moan and trembled body jerking. His cock twitched within the confines of his pants, under the heavy petting and Youngjae tried to stop it, but he couldn’t. Tension suddenly snapped within his abdomen and he came. His body twisted and trembled under Jaebum, mind lost in the feeling of relief and intense pleasure. “Jaebum! Oh god, Jaebum.”
Jaebum leaned over Youngjae, eyes locked on Youngjae’s face as the other rode out his most likely first orgasm. He could feel a sense of pride swell in his chest knowing he gave Youngjae his first orgasm, touched him in ways no one had ever touched him, and pleased him in ways he never thought could happen. Leaning down, he grazed his lips over Youngjae’s pressing soft kisses to them occasionally, his hand still working over Youngjae’s member. His movements slowed as the trembles began to subside and Youngjae’s body started to relax. “That’s it.” he whispered. “Did you like that?” he asked.
Youngjae whimpered softly and nodded his head lightly, eyes moving to stare at the other. A soft, lazy smile crossed his lips for a brief moment before he caught his bottom lip between his teeth. “That felt...amazing but...I-I-” He was cut off as Jaebum kissed him once more. A soft moan left Youngjae as their lips moved together slowly. Pulling back, Jaebum stroked Youngjae’s cheek and smiled softly.
“It’s okay. We can talk about it later. Right now I want you to just lay back and relax okay? I’ll take good care of you.” Jaebum said as he pulled back. Shifting on the bed, he moved to sit on the edge, his eyes still on Youngjae.
“Okay.” Youngjae whispered. He looked up at Jaebum and flushed lightly, a small smile spreading over his lips as he reached out and took Jaebum’s hand into his own. He didn’t know why, but he felt the need to hold his hand, to touch him, and just be close. He was almost positive what they did wasn’t sex, but some form of it. It had to be. The other touched him in such intimate areas and made him feel so extremely good. It had to be something like that. And the need to touch the other and just have comfort was so overwhelming to him. His smile was matched and Jaebum laced their fingers together. He brought Youngjae’s hand up and kissed the back of it gently before lowering it gently. He never let it go, but he let it rest on the bed next to Youngjae as the other slowly calmed.
“Next time...we’ll do more?” Youngjae asked curiously. He was curious but also excited. If what little they did felt that good, surely having sex would feel even better. He was kind of eager to try it. Jaebum chuckled and nodded.
“Next time. Don’t think about it now okay? Just relax.” Jaebum said and leaned down and pressed a peck against Youngjae’s head. Once more, Youngjae nodded and closed his eyes. He let out a deep, content sigh as laid there, just reveling in the emotions and sensations still coursing through him. He was pretty sure he made the right decision to finally give in, to stop fighting, and just follow the feelings that had grown over the past few months. He trusted Jaebum and he hoped that in the future they could be more than what they were. Youngjae hoped for a bright and happy future in a place he once thought was a prison, owned by a man he once thought was a beast.

toffee!
no dont apologise! i didnt check until just then so np :)
mmm yeah it is a bit trippy. hehe ITS TRUE THO. yeah sadly i think ur right, and tag blocking is probably a good idea. sometimes smut written well or not in excess is okay but goddamn when its abt 01 line and thats the whole fic... *silently blocks tags*
hehe i do that all the time lol this conversation is carrying on threads from a month ago :) mmm yeah ur probably right sadly, same. HA HE DIDNT HAVE A CHOICE and now i have someone to talk to abt them, so thats good! I KNOW felix was actually the one who got me into skz with his iconique gods menu line so i guess i have a soft spot for him. i always tell myself my bias is chan but ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ guess im more whipped than id like to admit. mmm yeah that does make sense dw i hope they do that as well. YES king seungmin hIMSELF. GODDAMNIT DONT GET ME STARTED ON MINHO IN GODS MENU I DIDNT EVEN KNOW HE WAS PART OF THE GROUP UNTIL I STARTED GETTING MORE INTO THEM. BITCH (affectionate) THE LINE DISTRIBUTION HAS BEEN UTTER DOG SHIT but *deep breath* its better now so were moving on adn hoping it stays that way. sis same but i may or may not have gone thru a rlly depressed phase and actively sought out the elimination episodes so i could actually force some tears out of my emotionless shell of a heart but what cna you do? lmaoo i feel that irl, binnie deserves more vocal lines. yesss channies accent is rlly prominent then, i think also the way he structures his phrasing? is more english speaking than korean? but yeah i totally get what ur saying. AJKSAL lmao
okay then! im excited for whenever it gets done! (maybe tag me?) ahh the cold shrivelled heart of a dark au writer beats again at the thought of torturing another poor characters very soul (/j) :(( yeah that would suck not being able to see them. ohhh ur on the other hemisphere to me! were just going into spring rn. mmm smth to look forward to! YES you put it into words. they rlly are pretty independent from the company (remember how jyp rejected that other dudes songs after like 3 seconds and then how he was apparently nervous to show the song hed written to chan cos chan was so good at writing hits ahhh sweet revenge) mmmYES we rlly need a mute and remove notifications button for our brains dont we?
YES CORRECT i totally agree. some people jsut dont give it a try, adn assume its bad cos its korean smh racist assholes. yes! im coming up to my 6 month anniv actually! sis sAME, i feel like theyre being tugged into appealing to the western american market and theyre not staying as true to their artistic flair as a group, especially with only writing english songs atm. *sigh* ah well, at least theyre bringing recognition to the kpop world. AHUH dead on, theyre going to be discarded pretty soon and then where will bp be? theyll prob go solo paths which is rlly sad but what can you do when the company is run by a prideful asshole? yg is not going to last much longer in the big four if they keep this up.
hehe you get it. oooh very cool! whos ur ult? (sorry if youve said this before) mmmm yeah good decision, i feel liek thats probably a wise decision. this is my first album release as a kpop stan (not counting mixtape oh) so i think ill get it for sentiments sake. yeah! im excited for the new music! mingi was the one who got me into them, but atm my bias is seonghwa followed by san, wooyoung and ateez but jonghos high notes man *swoon* he, yeah atm ive got jake, jay, nikki, jungwon and sunoo down so just trying to get the rest :) heh, yeah kard i rlly only got into cos of bm, ive seen him like interacting with a lot of idols and he seemed nice so i decided to check out the group. ikr gunshot man *another swoon*
no noe! i didnt know what it was until i got it lol. thx toffee ill try and take that to mind :) yeah lol im on a waiting list thats not going to be free until late september so hopefully i can hold on until then. hope ur okay, that sounds like it sucks, hope you can find someone. maybe ill just take you along on my phone and the therapist can get a two for one patient deal lmaooo. mmm, sorry no i havent mentioned it before, i dont rlly talk abt it much. uhhh basically hypermobility? if you google it, it doesnt seem bad, jsut joint flexibility but ive got the severe end of the stick, leaning towards ehlers danlos syndrome so thats fun. basically it just makes it hard for me to exercise, run, jump, stand or just walk for long periods of time and gives me a lot of joint and muscle pain so... thats fun! but obviously so many other people have it worse than me, so i try not to complain. normally in young people it will improve as they get older, but my doctor said bc its severe in me, its unlikely to get much better. but again, i dont have the worst lot in the bunch, so its all g.
oh its good that its not the bad type of rain, a light sprinkling can be relaxing sometimes. aww thx darl, the concern is appreciated but it went pretty well and i managed not to cough too much on stage or kill myself trying to run around to the other side of the stage in the pouring rain so thats good! oooh tea buddies! my dogs a labradoodle, but shes a bit more of a feral poodle lol not much labrador in her at all, unless its her relentless urge to hunt down every bird that has ever walked this earth smh :((( hopefully they can come back on soon, does uni have dances?
ahhh a mood if i ever heard one. hopefully things will get better for you soon, ik anxiety sucks ass. ooh thats always good! when its sunny here, its always melt ur thongs to the pavement hot so the nicely cool sunny days are a lovely change. hehe impatience is not so good for you, but good for us that get to see ur beautiful theme early. ahh no worries, itll come eventually hopefully. and if not, then just things that make you not anxious are good. it doesnt have to be black or white, sometimes gray is good. mmmmm sames i have midterms this week to catch up on and then two weeks of end of terms so thats fun! i hope u can overcome that a little, heres some channie to be ur motivation https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a8LWyNjzOww. hah! i hear that all the time, he seems to be everywhere. did you see that tiktok of hans slowed back door rap, i stg it sounded EXACTLY like namjoon, it kinda scared me. also teh beginning of another day, sounds so much like joon i swear.
that reminds me! idk ur biases! i feel like this should be smth i should know so please! feel free to elaborate!
ahh im glad, i was worried it is. mmm same, so no hard feelings if either of us misses a day or smth. ill start worrying if weeks/months have gone by, but if its just a little while thats more than fine. ill just picture you studiously completing notes and i wont worry lol
<3 w.a. 🐺
at some point i really think i'm going to start blocking accounts because blocking tags won't be enough. i saw ask tags the other day and it just made me want to bleach my eyeballs.
i could talk about god's menu felix for hours man. the teaser for god's menu that featured his part on the bridge made me look forward to the mv release. you: biases chan, also you: lixiesbabyhands. yes you are more whipped than you think. i can't believe orange haired minho was given NOTHING during that era but they kind of made up for it in the b-sides. i also hope it stays that way. the distribution for this era was pretty fair.
"torturing another poor character's soul" in all honesty, i used to live for this. 2017 me leading up to early 2020 wrote nothing but angst. i have another aussie friend on twt and tbh i'm still really (O.o) about the seasons! jyp should be terrified skz could easily take over that company. heck if skz grow old and start their own company, they'd probably do a great job at running it. PLEASE. i have issues on muting/notifications both mentally and in real life. sometimes, i just wish to disappear.
some people in my country are just disgusting tbh. not only racist but homophobic too. they label kpop as 'gay' and it DISGUSTS me. it's a problematic behavior/mindset people in my country need to fucking get rid of. anyway, HELP ME 6 MONTHS??? and i've been in this shit for like a decade eye. tbh, i’m not fond of kpop groups trying to appeal to the western audience :// it feels like they’re losing their identity in a way. yes recognition but at what cost? yg has my favorite groups but that’s one shitty company when it comes to promoting.
okay my ult! it’s haechan from nct but i consider chan an ult too. like a close second above my whopping list of kpop boys. oh yes! you should get the album just for like a keepsake? remembrance? how did mingi appeal to you? omg did you start getting interested in ateez back when he was still on hiatus? NOT YOU BIASING THE SAME PEOPLE I DID WHEN I FIRST STARTED STANNING. the infamous ateez thot-line. jongho is easily one of the best fourth gen vocalists out here, no one can change my mind :( good luck with memorizing the rest of enhypen! just in time for the comeback too. i hope i’ll get into kard soon but i’m pretty content (and a tad bit overwhelmed) with the amount of groups i stan right now.
please hold on though, feel free to vent here if you like. thanks for the offer tho HAHA but like i’ll try to get checked here too when the cases die down a bit. i’m sorry to hear about your condition though :( please don’t ever overwork yourself to the point that your joints/muscles would ache. it’s completely valid to complain about it tho. i get that you have others in mind but keeping that mindset really doesn’t do you (like you internally) any better? so if you need to, vent your frustrations out and don’t keep it in.
oh my god, about your performance last sunday. was the stage out in the open? glad you didn’t cough too much and did well on your concert. i’m proud of you! i can never understand dogs and poor birds T_T uni doesn’t have dances unfortunately. i think there’s just one party at the end like a graduation ball. what year are you in anyway? if it’s something that you’re fine with sharing. if not, it’s cool.
good luck with your exams! and thanks for the link! AHA what a cutie. i think he does this motivation thing once in a while during his lives and it’s just comforting. yeah joon and han my irl just freaked when we made that discovery. ult crumbs for her. oh god not me forgetting about every biases when you asked. you can ask for my biases in a few groups just list down the one’s you’re interested in knowing. 
i missed yesterday because i was grinding and finishing what if we stay + school work. finally did it today. i’m sure i’ll reply in like a day or two, definitely not a month unless i state otherwise. if i ever decide to abandon this blog, i’ll let you know.

Broduce 101: Episode 10 (Quick Livestream Recap)
This post contains spoilers. 
We go straight up to the Regal Chair of Doom for the elimination opening.
There are a few hair changes! Minki is dark haired again, while Sanggyun had an ashy blond dye job and a trim.
They’re not sure what the cut off is because of the rumours and the doubt BoA’s script had provided last episode.
Hyunbin ambitiously wants to be first, and the trainees laugh their heads off at this proclamation.
Entrance pose time!
Pledis trainees come in by imitating Nu’est maknae Minki’s disjointed shoulder trick.
Little Lee Woojin does the thigh touching move from sexy concept song Open.
MMO trainees, Daniel and Jisung, dance to Sistar’s Touch My Body. It makes me feel low key bitter because my girls :(
RBW Lee Gunhee did some hip swinging.
Extra as hell, Fantagio Ong Sungwoo brought a bag with him to recreate his now iconic moment from the work out episode.
WH Creative Seo Sungyhuk did some of IKYK choreo. Cutie
YGK+ Kwon Hyunbin did the robot.
Popular WinkDeep boys Maroo Park Jihoon and C9 Bae Jinyoung did twin moves
Ardor and Able hilariously recreate a reference to Noh Taehyun’s viral stomach scratching picture.
Starship Jung Sewoon did the world’s tiniest Nayana gesture.
CUBE chicks do a Twice Knock Knock reference.
OUI Donghan did a weird dance move on the floor. 
Only top 20 gets through. So this rumour was right. It’s like Mnet’s playing two lies one truth lol
BoA gets ajumeoni claps as she enters. That dress looks like something from Red Velvet’s closet though.
Fanservice to soothe the pain begins with cute dorm footage.
Snack time is abound in the dorms once again. One trainee carries what looks like a fuckin mountain of cup ramen across the room at some point.
They reveal a bit of first week footage with the HOTSHOT boys depositing their luggage in the waiting room. Sungwoon’s massive show insole falls out and he gets embarrassed, all ‘When did this come out??’
Sunghyuk has a bit where he comes into to visit his hyungs and gets scolded for his informality. He gets visibly scared by Jihoon’s sternness, leaving with his tail between his legs until Ong-ssi calls him back.
Ong-ssi: Why’d you come in here?
Sunghyuk (looking like he may cry): For...no reason.
All the hyungs: Oh, that’s good! :D I’m glad you came to see us!!! :))
Sunghyuk almost passes out in relief when he realises they were teasing him lol
There’s a cut of how the boys all pull out make up to touch up when production staff calls for a break, yanking out their compacts and pat-patting away at their faces.
Jisung eomma is the funniest of all of course, whipping out the compact with a flourish and patting his too red lips to blend them out.
Ong-ssi puts on a few dozen coats of tinted lip balm and gets ticked off by staff for the red lips visible across the hall 
Jaehwan touches up Baekho’s nose for him 
Another cut is product placement for face packs, its a sponsored bit (you can always tell when Samuel’s acting, bless him) but they play around well with the differently coloured mask creams.
Sungwoon gets 101 written on his face by his dongsaengs, Jihoon makes himself up like a panda while Baekho gets a beard. He’s very pleased with it. A universal cutie.
Deffo more natural PPL than the herbal supplement.
There’s a cut of early morning shower singing from vocal kids RIP FNC Yoo Hwiseung, getting screentime once he’s been kicked.
Sad practice shots with Jaehwan’s acoustic guitar backing and singing of Nayana. I ALREADY FEEL BAD FOR THEM FUK U MNET
Cut to more cheerful trainee time.
Noh Taehyun once again has to heatedly defend himself because of his stomach clip after already having to clarify he’s not a crybaby. He claims the clip was from after a rehearsal sesh, and he was hot and sweaty so, “I WAS FANNING MYSELF I WASN’T SCRATCHING MY TUMMY EVERYONE!!”
CUBE kids explain their initial awkwardness. Their company wanted them to be clear hyung-dongsaeng on the show, but they were friends while they were trainees earlier. This means Seonho can’t use banmal with him anymore and has to remember to call Guanlin hyung. It doesn’t affect Lai Guanlin, but Seonho is still adjusting lol 
Minhyun likes sweet boy Seonho, but the younger kid keeps hugging him and is really fond of skinship. 
Minhyun: It’s like he’s my girlfriend...he needs to dial it down a bit.
Seonho: It’s just because I love my hyung???!
Daehwi gets a stool to stand on for his individual bit, and is mildly indignant about it. He doesn’t think he’s that short and pulls out massive insoles from his shoes before also ratting out Sasuke Uchiha cosplayer Bae Jinyoung’s use of insoles.
His friend is not happy, and has to reveal his own massive foam shoe inserts.
Bae Jinyoung: They’re only 2cm!!
Staff: Only because you’re pressing down on them like that.
Auntie Jisung, true to form, mentions Daniel’s night talking. 
“Mom, you’re embarrassing me!!” - Kang Daniel, probably.
Red lip tint fans Daniel and Sanggyun get called out for their always pink lips, and Daniel gets his own back by pointing out that Yoon Jisung also always wears tons of it. 
Kang Daniel called my boy with his ludicrous pink lips an ajumma!!
Sewoon loves his awkward wink edited with post its on his face and the Jaehwan and Sewoon vocal ship continues to sail.
Hosts Auntie Jisung and Ong Sungwoo for basketball manga oppa times
Ong-ssi: Why are you here? Did you trainees only come to have fun here on the show?
Auntie Jisung: Yes. I did. 
They chant ONGSUNG ONGSUNG ONGSUNG for themselves. New comedy MC duo, I loaf
Speed quiz is first up, with sexy waves from OngSung MCs.
Showtime team do okay, Samuel flips onto his back to act out samgyetang. I died. How do you even think of that.
IKYK: Moonbok hard carries. He’s so pretty but that hairstyle...a topknot and scarf wrapped around his head..I wear my own hair like that for house cleans. Taedong quivers for a bit  when he gets his word, before dancing The Boys for SNSD. 
Open: Daniel does a piss poor imitation of Baekho, who laughs like a baby the whole segment. Seonho gets Ahn Junyoung (the P101 main producer) and wavers for a bit before yelling, ”Ah! PASS!” 
Oh Little Girl: Ayn Hyungseob has apple hair! He struggles to convey swag, imitating Baekho and Daniel to no avail. His team finally gets it only because Lee Euiwoong hears Noh Taheyun say, ‘Ah, Hyungseobie definitely has none of this at all!!’ 
Never: Lai Guanlin passes because he doesn’t know the word...twice; he can’t read Hangul well and the words are too difficult. One of them is an old fashioned Korean flute like?? It’s a hard word and how do you act it out? Poor kiddo
IKYK team wins this segment. 
Next game is a game where duos come forth from each team; one trainee does an elephant nose spin, and then runs to apply lipstick on his waiting teammate.
My heart soars at Sanggyun and Jisung representing Showtime
Sewoon falls multiple times and when he gets to Euiwoong,  he keeps shaking. Euiwoong gets more and more impatient and Sewoon finally gets shoved by an annoyed hamster.
Jisung veers off and falls like fifteen times before getting to Sanggyun. After, Sanggyun looks at himself and thinks it’s sort of sexy. “You look pretty!!” says excited Auntie Jisung, gleefully.
BNM Jonghyun has a scary determined look throughout.
Kim Yongguk can’t even spin straight, falling over every two spins like a new born puppy. He crawls to Kenta, who waits patiently to have his whole face attacked viciously with red lipstick 
Kenta, when the trainees go into splits and Yongguk is still stabbing his cheeks with lipstick: WHY? WHY??
Lee Daehwi remains perfectly, characteristically competent, calmly dabbing on Wartortle GodJonghyun’s lips like a seasoned make up artist. 
Yoo Seonho gets to draw again on a caring hyung picked by him, so he picks Daniel
Jaehwan picks Emperor Hwang for redoing the segment. Jaehwan runs lopsided and dementedly fast to draw on his hyung, frightening poor Gunhee on the sidelines.
Seonho applies eight hundred layers of red on Daniel’s mouth lol
The next game is team jump roping and posing for a photo 
This was hilarious - you have to look them up, I died laughing at their faces mid air. These are the pictures I’m getting blown up and signed if I ever see them in person. 
Open team wins overall, and receives the PPL face packs.
After this dose of healing (this is what Jonghyun calls the segment, with another of his ha ha HAs) cuteness, we go back to elims.
The rankings from last episode are finally revealed for the highest ranking from the live audience. To no one’s surprise, Daniel won the 220,000 benefit.
1 and 20 to be revealed last for the suspense
Jung Sewoon ranked 19. 
Woodam and Donghan have a depressingly self aware discussion about how they know they’re lucky to have this far.
Joo Haknyeon is 18. The boys are all shocked but he’s had awful press lately. He’s losing grace swiftly, and this is his first time falling out of top 11.
BNM Im Youngmin has fortunately made it at 17, despite the (totally undeserved) hate he received. He even apologised, for some reason
CUBE Seonho was 16, he almost fell out his seat with shock as his name was called.
Ren, Hyungseob and Jaehwan all make it in succession.
Minhyun’s apparent ‘mistaken’ reveal of his rank was at 12 but it’s Pledis Kang Dongho at 12. The trainees all imitate Baekho’s Boy in Love head bob lol
Pledis Minhyun makes it at 11. He’s handsome on the big screen, and sings at BoA’s request. All the trainees have a shim koong.
Lee Daaehwi at 10. I’m grateful he stays top 11 though a cutie 
MMO Yoon Jisung makes it at 9!! YES HE’S BACK IN TOP 11 I LOVE MY AUNTIE!!
So do the trainees, they’re all more excited than he is at his rank, there’s a veritable swarm as they congratulate their eomma.
Samuel’s having a breakdown from nerves.
Auntie Jisung’s ugly crying is slightly muted this time - his company must have scolded him. Daniel is super relieved his hyung’s back in top 11, and Jisung thanks people for supporting him and his dream.
Ong Sungwoo is safe at number 8. BoA asks him to do his Ong-slate bit, which of course, he does with every bit of over the top acting he can.
Nation’s leader Angel God Jonghyun dropped to 7, but at least Wartortle’s safe.
Good shot of the empty Nu’est seats as Jonghyun thanks the voters for supporting him and his fellow Pledis trainees.
Brand New Music Park Woojin makes it to 6! He still has an eye patch on, I hope he’s recovering well. BoA asks him to do his famous snaggle-toothed smile. A cutie.
Samuel’s proper freaking out but he makes it at 5. He thanks all his Showtime hyungs by name but forgets Jisung, adding him last when he realises. Jisung, my drama queen, pouts in mock offence 
Goodness, you can really see the relief on Samuel’s face when he sinks into his chair, my poor kid.
BoA calls out Ha Sungwoon and Bae Jinyoung for the next two possible ranks
Ha Sungwoon can’t stop yelling in shock for being in the top 5, he just screams endlessly. When the camera points at him for the shot right before BoA announces his name, he thinks it’s someone else in his row because he really wasn’t expecting it.
ME NEITHER MATE THERE IS SOME FAIRNESS IN THE WORLD I LIVE FOR THIS RISE
Bae Jinyoung is 4. The two pick voting helped him climb back up, WinkDeep sails. In celebration, he does the aegyo bit from his intro.
Sungwoon makes it at number 3 (more slightly muted screaming)
I’m that tear waterfall pokemon gif, and so is he, sort of. This caught me off guard but I love being wrong about this sort of stuff.
Popular kids, teen pick Jihoon and noona pick Daniel for top two. 
Daniel and Little Woojin exchange non-forced reassurance as they wait for his rank to be announced.
Sidenote while watching the livestream: That Cha Eunwoo kid is in a lot of ads for a rookie. He’s rather handsome.
MMO Kang Daniel ranks number 1. It’s his first time, he never thought he’ll be Jihoon’s rival, but he’s deeply grateful. 
Which puts Park Jihoon at a safe 2. He thanks his fans for their continued support. His consistency has been incredible, he’s never left the top of the pyramid. 
Last trainee for the cut off at 20. These shots of my eliminated talented boys makes me sad.
They draw out my pain by showing the ranks from 35 upwards, and having the trainees speak as they get booted.
Bye little maknae Lee Woojin, star vocal Park Woodam, RBW meme Lee Gunhee and musicial kid Kim Yehyun
All of I Know You Know got booted. My sweet boy WH Creative Seo Sunghyuk cries. The Vibe knight boy Taedong and blond pretty kid OUI Donghan are composed. They must have all expected this.
Oh, Donghyun. His BNM trainees look like they’re going to cry as he asks the voters to support them.
Sanggyun spits some sugar coated bitterness, Noh Taehyun and Takada Kenta are graceful.
Visual dark horse Moonbok, who got played by Mnet the most, leaves the show too. He really speaks very prettily. 3
BoA says this isn’t the end for their careers. I wish I can be that optimistic.
Yuehua Lee Euiwoong doesn’t make the cut. You can see Hyungseob’s face fall.
YGK+ Kwon Hyunbin is eliminated at 22. He says a nice ment too, but lasting this long considering his background and skillset is just miraculous.
It’s between Kim Yongguk and Lai Guanlin for rank 20. 
Honestly, I’d never have guessed this in a million years. Kim Yongguk, maybe, because of his lack of clear broship, but Cube chicks must get a lot of their hype from teenagers. 
Lai Guanlin makes it by the skin of his teeth. 
We have to say goodbye to Arctic Fox Kim Yongguk. This feels so unfair, he had such a nice, melancholy tone. 
Daniel leads the ending salutations to the national producers.
Last voting period opens, and it’s one pick. This season has been super makjang for real. Far out.
We cut to a new day, the top 20 trainees have gathered for final evaluation mission. BoA reminds them this is the final, debut mission for the live broadcast finale.
The trainees will be split into two teams to perform one of two songs, Super Hot or Hands on Me. I’m keen to hear these songs, the composers are really well known. The choreography has to be created by the trainees themselves.
Harvey Mason and his team created Hands On Me, the demo sounds like a laid back jazzy track that will probably go the IKYK way (hashtag bitter).
Ryan Jhun, who composed Nayana and EXO’s Love Me Right, my favourite EXO title song by far, wrote Super Hot, which is more funky, fast paced. 
I take a minute to thank Mother Mary for the lack of EDM. Let’s hope it doesn’t jump out on me when I hear the full songs.
Positions depend on rank, with low ranking trainees picking first and the higher ones possessing the ability to replace them if they want the position.
Im Youngmin’s penalty for leaking spoilers is that he has to take what’s left over, so he picks first and can be replaced.
Seonho ambitiously displaces Haknyeon for sub-vocal 3 on Super Hot, pushing him down to 4.
Hyungseob pushes Joo Haknyeon further down to 5 lol
Then Daehwi pushes him to rapper 1
Jonghyun comes in to shove him to the other team, as vocal 6 for Hands on Me.
Dead. His fellow trainees seemingly have no faith in him at all. 
Jaehwan takes his rightful place as main vocal for Hands on Me.
Sewoon had picked sub vocal 1 on the same song earlier, wanting to sing with Jaehwan. 
Minhyun continues to be a Joseon level strategist by pushing Sewoon to a different team. Samuel moves him back but to a lower vocal position. 
Daniel changes Sungwoon’s team from Hands on Me sub vocal 1 to Super Hot but promotes him to main vocal  on there so it works out well.
Everyone on Super Hot understandably wants to be centre considering the timing of the mission and they all sing the main chorus line to compete. 
Samuel has to create the choreo and formations as the strongest dance trainee. His teammates come up with a bunch of unhelpful suggestions and he’s stressing out again.
Ong-slate opens on Hands on Me discussions.
They’re discussing leader, Ong-ssi surprisingly nominates himself and receives the position.
Again, everyone wants to be centre and audition with the ‘killing part’ but they don’t show centre pick.
We see the eliminated trainees crying at the eliminations again before next week’s trailer and ranks. 
Below is a comprehensive list of this week’s rankings. I’ll post the entire set this time, because we’re down to only 20 :(
Kang Daniel 
Park Jihoon 
Ha Sungwoon 
Bae Jinyoung 
Kim Samuel 
Park Woojin 
Kim Jonghyun 
Ong Sungwoo 
Yoon Jisung 
Lee Daehwi
Hwang Minhyun 
Kang Dongho

Ahn Hyungseop
