watchertv discourse once again proving that no one online knows the difference between “well-off content creator” and “actually rich multibillionaire”
people out here like 'eat the rich' and they're gonna eat doctors and lawyers and three guys who make videos on the internet instead of fkn jeff bezos who has more money than god.

✨ a/n: hi friends. Omg, i didn’t know how much I missed this couple??? I low-key want to write a small one-shot. I toyed with the idea but we’ll see if it actually happens. I literally don’t need more on my WIP list lol. But anyways, enjoy this fluffy cute couple.
✨ have questions or want drabbles? drop them here.
[ SERIES MASTERLIST ]
Jungkook double-checked everything he wrote to ensure the options were fitting for both of you. Before getting out of the car, he stuffed the scraps of paper into his pocket. He pulled on his black Supreme jersey shirt, flattened his joggers, and ran his hands through his hair. His palms were sweating as he approached your door.
Even though the two of you had been together for a few weeks, he was still concerned that one small mistake could set the two of you back a few steps, which he didn't want to happen.
When he knocked on the door, he heard shuffling from the other side. You were scurrying around, slipping on your shoes and hoping not to fall on your face. When you opened the door, you saw your very cute boyfriend holding two pieces of paper. You recognized it right away because you had seen it trending on TikTok. Then you noticed his phone, which was recording what you assumed was an interactive 'choose your date' game.
Your mouth's corners also curled upward to mirror his. You were glad you chose a cute outfit to wear since this was being recorded. Jungkook wiggled his eyebrows, waiting for you to choose.
Jungkook must have used thick cardboard to prevent you from cheating as you deliberated between the two, squinting to see if you could read what was written on it.
“Come on, baby. You gotta pick one.”
You waved your finger back and forth before selecting the one on the right, checking to see what you had selected: sushi. You squealed at your choice, muttering a ‘yes’ as you stepped out of your door.
“Good choice,” Jungkook smiled.
“What was on the other paper?”
“I can’t tell you that,” he scowled, opening the passenger door for you, in which you rolled your eyes.
The sushi dinner was scrumptious—you could eat sushi all day if you could. Toward the end of dinner, Jungkook pulled out another set of choices, dangling it in front of you. Hmm. You had already chosen the right side before, maybe you should go for the left. You tried plucking the left card from his grasp, but he wouldn’t let go.
"Hey!" you protested in pout.
He darted his eyes to the right card, hoping you’d catch his drift. You chuckled, shaking your head. You thought it was your choice, not his. Regardless, you chose the card he desired: ice cream by the pier, but not before taking the other card to see the second option, a DIY S'mores bar. You'd have been happy either way, but Jungkook must have been craving ice cream.
The pier was surprisingly tame for a Saturday night. A few kids running around, parents chasing after them, couples and groups of friends laughing and walking around. And then there were the two of you, newly dating, and getting to know each other properly.
Jungkook held your hand, placing a kiss on the back of it. The sentiment made your stomach flutter. He had been so sweet to you these past few weeks, being attentive to your wants and needs, and leaving you small gifts here and there. You appreciated the gestures but he didn’t always have to spoil you.
You peered at your cute boyfriend, happily licking away at his vanilla and chocolate swirled ice cream cone. He couldn’t choose just one, so he chose both. You figured he’d get the best of both worlds.
The two of you stood outside your door and he stopped you before you could go in. He held up two more cards, awaiting your decision. You sighed before choosing the card on the left, which was: a hug. You could only guess what was on the other card.
Jungkook crouched down, embraced his arms around your thighs before lifting you up, causing you to squeal. You quickly snaked your arms around his neck.
“Jungkook! What are you doing?” You protested.
“Giving you a hug,” he smiled.
“This is not a hug!” You countered, lightly slapping his shoulder, uttering for him to put you down.
He chuckled. “Sorry, I’ve always wanted to do that to someone I was dating.”
You grinned. “Weirdo.”
“Your weirdo.”
“Mm, my weirdo,” you whispered, wrapping your arms around him for a real hug.
You nudge your nose against his, pulling him flush to you. "You don't want to stay?" You hadn't gone past second base but you were itching for just a bit more from him. The tension was killing you for the past few weeks.
He understood what you were saying and was tempted to say yes. He'd love to stay and cuddle and kiss you all night, but he knew where that would lead, and he didn't want to rush anything with you—he wanted to take his time. To be honest, he was sure he'd want to have sex with you all the time if things between you got physical, but you were different, and you made him want to do things differently. You deserved better, better than the previous relationships he’s had.
"Mm, I want to, but I shouldn't," he murmured, lips ghosting over yours.
You frowned at his remark and he couldn't help but chuckle at how cute you were. He placed a kiss on your neck, making you shudder at his effect on you. You were surprised by how long he had been holding out on you, but you didn’t want to ruin such a new thing with him.
“Mmkay.”
“Did you have fun tonight?”
You nodded and grinned. “Can I plan our next date?”
He hummed before capturing your lips with his. “Mm—you make me wanna stay.”
You tugged on his bottom lip, shaking your head, and gave him a devilish smile. “You made your bed, gotta lie in it,” you said, kissing him once more. “Good night.”

Holy shit, that article on Holtzy that Michigan just shared…😭😭 (I was in tears on my lunch break). So glad to see him doing so well after everything.
yeah 🥲 so many good bits in there
Holtz is the de facto dad of the Wolverines hockey team. As a 23-year-old senior, he’s one of the older players of the group. Plus, he’s smart — a mechanical engineering major — who has a knack for solving problems. Have a homework question? Ask Holtzy. Craving a home-cooked meal? Holtzy is a helluva cook. Having trouble understanding a certain play in practice? You guessed it. Ask Holtzy.
michigan dad
“If there’s a solution that guys are trying to figure out, they will bring it to Steve to be the judge to decide who’s right and who’s wrong. So, he’s kind of the deciding factor of all arguments and everything,” Truscott says. “One time we’re trying to figure out housing — the right house, who’s living where — and he came up with a solution. He’s always got the answer.”
truly fascinated by the implications of this tbh.
Then team captain Nick Blankenburg got hurt. And Blakenburg, seeing Holtz's gains on and off the ice, walked into the coach’s office and said Holtzy needs to be in the lineup. And sure enough, there he was, finally playing for the University of Michigan Wolverines, ready to harass opposing team’s offenses. Doing what he does best.
excuse me 😭 okay blanks
he just wants to be a good dad guy and study engineering and he succeeded at both

Kiwi here and the NZ Herald is just generally a terrible publication that's well known for its bias and inaccuracies. They took one look at a potential clickbait headline because NZ patriotism and ran with it. That article was quickly disproved and trashed by rbr and reputable f1 sources. If Marko was a long term supporter of Liam he would’ve put him in the seat over Nyck in 22. Have to wait for credited news or we’ll be uplifted to be brought down.
Ok I want to clarify some things about my post last night.
Firstly, I never took the articles’ word as gospel I more used it as a talking point about the Red Bull corporation than saying that Liam is definitely in the Red Bull seat in two races’ time.
Now I’ve cleared that up, I will definitely take better care on where I get my sources from next time or put a disclaimer at the bottom, next time. I just saw people talking about it on the internet and thought I would join in.
Again, I am sorry and I will do better next time 🫡

Do you feel your theatre experience impacts your d&d experience and vice versa? If so how?
An intricate one
I think poem first then full answer under the cut. It's long and indepth.
Does a shoe influence a dance?
Will the thread effect the weave?
Do I age with time?
Or does it age with me?
So, to try and determine how theatre has influenced anything in my life is incredibly difficult. But the biggest thing is helping to sus out when audiences may lose focus.
I have been in professional theatre since I was 7/8 I think, amateur theatre since I was about 6 maybe it's real hard to remember. So naturally everything I do is influenced by it.
My background varies from acting to dircting and lighting design so how theatre impacts is more identifiable.
Part 1 acting
So I was a good actor but not a great one and I think if a great actor were to play a ttrpg they wouldn't do well at it if they approached it how they approach acting.
When I would perform a role I would be thinking constantly about what my character would do right now, how I'm meant to move to this position, the next thing is a big moment so I need to prepare for it etc.
A great actor doesn't do that, they just do the stuff they don't think about it. It does mean that great actors can be terrible fits if the character I too different from them but if it's the right character it's seamless.
However the tendency to think in depth about each action is incredibly useful in ttrpgs especially combat focused ones like dnd or PF as the alienation of the mechanics fits nicely with the alienation of thinking though each action and intention.
Although apparently everyone does improv and everyone recommends improv I've never had a great experience with it and that is entirely because most aee comedic. I can't help but find it funny and feel the pressure to be funny.
However the few times I've done dramatic improv it's been brilliant and I've been able to hone that to a T in TTRPGs I've never before had the scope to perform dramatic improv like that before.
The final acting thing I can think of is my voices, I hated my voice after it broke for some reason, can't possibly imagine what would make me, a trans girl, hate her deep voice.
But because I hated my voice I inhabited a number of different voices and accents and would spend hours in the playground making weird noises just to stretch and flex my vocal skills. To this day it's really difficult for me to not slip into the accent of people talking to me.
Doing lost of different voices helped immensely with acting and has been invaluable in TTRPGs as a player and gm. Obviously no one needs to do a voice for TTRPGs but I can separate characters in my head by their voice and the wild thing is that similar characters will accidentally slip into each others voices more than similar voices do.
Part 2 Directing
This is easy, directing and GMing are almost a 121 parallel.
1. Organising a group of disorganised performers/players
2. Ensuring the table/rehearsal is safe and comfortable
3. Steering said disorganised group towards a conclusion, theme or ending that aligns with the script/adventure and each other
Like, running rpgs is how I get my theatre fix during the slow times.
There are a number of things that I have learnt from directing which I tend to apply in rpgs. A lot seem obvious but common sense ain't so common.
Dramatic irony: incredibly useful to engage the audience/player. Obviously this requires a game where secrets are a thing but if that is the case having some information that others don't can pull players in especially if they hold only a part of the puzzle and are trying to figure out the rest
I am a creative editor not dictator: in theatre there are directors who accept no challenges to their vision. I am not one of them, I believe in the inherent nature of actors/writers/designers as creative and that when we collaborate we make something better than we could have made alone. So when I GM or play I take that attitude with me. There is no right answer, most of the time I will have a number of idea of how to solve things but whatever the players suggest I am more inclined to enact that what my original plan may have been.
Part 3 theatrics/design
When I run in person games, I will narrate an opening cinematic, think game of thrones/civ 5 openings with camera cuts and transitions focusing on actions the characters have done in the last session and giving hints to what may come up in the story.
I will plot this narration to music, try my best to time it correctly, and spotlight moments from each character to make them all seem badass. Sometimes I will incorporate character backstory scenes to give background if we are going to be focusing on one characters arc over others for the session.
I think this has become my signature style as a GM and, personally, it makes for an epic opening. It also is a clear indication of "the game has begun" which is an issue I see with a lot of GMs where there isn't a hard start to the game and it can get a bit meandering and slow to start.
Another related element which is tough to enact in game is the rule of inverse (I just made up that phrase)
The rule of inverse is if you have slow slow fade to black or snap to black transitions through the entire play you maintain the one you use until THE MOMENT, the moment when everything changes, the tonal shift, the revelation, the denouement/climax etc. At that point you change how transitions happen snap transitions if you were fading or slow fades if you were snapping to black.
This highlights the "everything has changed" sense and sets the audience on edge.
In TTRPGs its very helpful to have a sudden shift in energy to let players know something has happened or changed, that we are now in another phase. This is generally changing the frequency of rolls and opportunities to act drastically.
If speeding things up it may result in limiting player agency in the moment if they are unsure of what to do but you can mitigate this by either adding an IRL timer and/or taking a moment to tell the players things are different now, (you can stop this being jarring and pulling players out of immersion by setting a key phrase to indicate that this is happening)
Anywho that's how I approach TTRPGs with a theatre background.

Hi, i just wanted to ask if "And the day after that " was edited already? I wanted to read the newest version!
Hi anon!
Not me in my feels because???? Okay- so I do have chapters 1-7 (because it's longer) completed. My guess is it'll have 5-6 more chapters after that. I have started chapter 8 though (the climax because Tom telling his dad to piss off- UGH). I mean, if you really waaaaannntttt chapters 1-7, I have no issue putting them up and then marking it as incomplete since I've been working pretty hard on it lately (I mean you tell me?). I was just telling @kuesaa actually that I wanted to get it done today or tomorrow (but the weekend is probably more feasible) - tagging Kuesa for proof that I actually said it haha
I do also have a Tom Villa in the works called no matter the cost. A small spoiler for OTM, you'll meet Tom and his fiancé that Hamish mentions in chapter 1 at the finale. That's the OC that's in NMTC. Okay shutting up now- I could talk for way too fucking long about Tom. Snippet of NMTC below.
Happily ever after. It exists in fairy tales, at the end of every romcom movie ever filmed— the guy always gets the girl he’s so desperately in love with. Credits roll as your date wipes her tears delicately with one of those cheap brown paper napkins and you think to yourself, ‘Surely, this could be me one day?’ There’s someone for everyone and they’re just out there… somewhere… waiting.
Eh. Probably not though.
See, Tom Beresford-King has one goal: make Juliet Chapman fall in love with him. It’s what his dad wants— nay, it’s what his dad needs him to do. Juliet’s family is their only competition in the world of business. It’s imperative that they merge with her family’s company (only to crush them, of course— as if they’d keep it separated and in one singular piece).

Hello, May I ask how you do these 3D stuff and what app you use?
I use Daz3D as the application. It's available for both Mac and Windows.
For Isobel, I created her using a shape and skin I found that I liked and I tweaked it until she fit the image I had of her in my head.
For Anna, Sparrow, Aly, and Damien, I pretty much stared at their face claims while adjusting everything. Honestly, They were in stages with a lot of input from my darlings @applbottmjeens, @alypink, @revnah1406, and @kaitaiga.
My favorite 3D render artist is @loneghostwolf, her stuff is absolutely incredible and I aspire to get as good as her some day.

Hey sorry but I think you’re missing the point of people just saying “I can’t afford this and that sucks” full stop. That’s not hating on them, it’s just feeling disappointed. Of course art shouldn’t be for free, and personally I don’t blame them for wanting to move and grow. But it’s a bummer if you can’t afford it. Sorry if this bugs you even further but I wanted to say this!! Hope you have a good evening ❤️
It is a bummer, and if I couldn't afford it, I would also be bummed!
But people are not just saying they can't afford it and that sucks.
They are leveling accusations at Steven, at Ryan, at the company as a whole, that are just patently not true and frankly, in the case of the vitriol directed at Steven and Ryan, actively fucking racist.
People are accusing Watcher of selling out, accusing them of being greedy and selfish and alienating their audience on purpose as if that is a choice a business that wants to keep running makes on purpose.
People are upset and I get it. But people have also gotta realise that "damn i can't afford this now that sucks" =/= "the entire company should be burned to the ground".
The reactions today have been wildly outsized to the actual issue at hand and to be honest, I think a lot of people who are big mad don't actually like Watcher all that much, based on the things they're saying.

I really want to see a drabble about JK and OC having a little competitive game between them over whether the baby will say mama or dada first! And I want to see the crazy about of teasing the winner will give the loser.
hehe i love this drabble prompt! it’s so fun <3 <3
The apartment was in a constant state of mess. Bam’s toys. Iseul’s toys. Jungkook’s toys—well, action figures, you should say.
You glanced at the clock before returning your attention to Iseul, who was strapped into her high chair. Her pouty lips and cheeks are stained from strawberries because she insists on feeding herself.
Little Miss Independent.
You only had a few minutes before Jungkook would come through the door, announcing ‘daddy’s home.’
“Come on, baby girl. Can you say ma-ma?”
Iseul grabs her plastic fork, tapping it loudly on the tray, completely ignoring your request.
“Ma-ma,” you repeated.
Iseul turns to you with her big doe eyes; Bam’s laying by your feet, waiting to eat any food scraps that Iseul drops. She pokes her pancake strip, then waves her fork around, causing the pancake to drop on the ground, and Bam jumps at the chance to eat it.
She smiles, kicking her feet, excited she’s fed her best friend.
You huff, but you can’t get upset at your eight month old. Those eyes and cheeks always get the best of you, and you blame Jeon Jungkook for helping you make such a cute kid.
The beeping from the keypad can be heard and it’s another day where you’ve failed to have Iseul say, ‘ma-ma’ first. And being the daddy’s girl that Iseul is, you were determined for her first words to be ‘ma-ma.’
The door opens then shuts.
“Daddy’s home!” Jungkook takes off his shoes, setting his things down before shuffling through the hallway, finding his favorite girls at the dining table.
“Ah, there are my girls!”
Bam gets up, walking over to also get some love from him. Jungkook kneels to greet his four-legged friend.
“Bam, have you been keeping an eye on my girls?”
The doberman sniffs and licks Jungkook’s face as an answer to his question.
Iseul is squealing excitedly when she sees her dad. She’s squirming in her seat, waiting to be released.
You rake your hand through your hair to find a piece of pancake lodged in, all thanks to Iseul. Tilting your head up, you wait for a kiss from Jungkook, and you pout when he kisses Iseul instead.
He narrowed his eyes. “Have you been cheating and teaching her to say mama all day?”
You scoffed, putting your hands on your waist. “How dare you accuse me of cheating!”
“Mum-mum,” Iseul babbles, still waiting to get out of her seat.
The two of you turn to her.
You gasped. “She said mama!”
“No, she said mum-mum,” Jungkook countered.
“Same difference!”
Jungkook pulled up a chair to sit beside you. “Okay, baby girl. Can you say da-da? Da-da?”
“My sweetest girl, can you say ma-ma?” You nudged Jungkook’s hip with yours and he glared back at you.
Iseul looked at you then Jungkook, clapping her hands and cooing. She threw the rest of her strawberries and pancake on the ground.
“Ba-mee. Ba-mee.”
Of course, Iseul’s best friend comes running when he sees food on the ground. Bam gobbles everything up, including the previous crumbs on the ground.
Iseul’s giggling and clapping. “Ba-mee. Ba-mee.”
You and Jungkook looked at each other and laughed because the both of you lost at your own game. Iseul’s first word wasn’t mama or dada, it was Bamie.
You sighed. “Now, can you stop withholding kisses from me now? Because we both lost to Bam.”
Jungkook grinned from ear to ear, hooking his arm around your waist, bringing you closer to him. His eyes are locked in on your lips, then shift to your eyes. “Nope.”

thoughts on if any NCAA players are going to be called up to their NHL team, now that everyone's season is over?
i’m always surprised when i get questions like this bc like. i’m all vibes and fun times and @workingforitallthetime is the brains of the college hockey scene.
but
we’ve already seen frank sign who was at the top of my list of those likely to sign. cutter will obviously be next unless something changed in him last night (feels unlikely but hey you never know). beyond michigan and bc tho, my knowledge ends. i thought maybe rut would give it a shot but after that loss, i wouldn’t be surprised to see him and the rest of his class stick around around for another go
idk maybe la has more/different feelings to add
