obs drabble request for when jk and oc ditch class for the day to do something spontaneous 🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹
our beloved summer; a drabble
Tumblr media
"I can't believe I let you talk me into ditching class."
"Y/N, it's an elective class. And you told me you handed in your midterm paper last week. You'll live."
"I would've preferred to maintain a perfect attendance rate!" You roll your eyes, but you still settle down next to him on a bench in the middle of this empty park near the store that Jungkook just dragged you to half an hour ago. It's a beautiful spring day, flowers blossoming all around you, painting everything in vibrant colors, eclipsing the residual melancholy of winter. Part of you is glad that you let him kidnap you from class; you prefer this to being stuck indoors for most of the afternoon anyway. "Whatever. Take your photo."
Your boyfriend grins brightly like a child in a candy store, admiring the ring on your finger before he kisses your hand. The fleeting feeling of his lips on your skin makes you soften, eases the harmless furrow between your brows that never held much annoyance in the first place.
The thick clay ring on your finger is heavy and uncomfortable, but you have to admit it's cute. Silly and might be more appropriate for a 7-year-old child, but it's cute. It's adorned with SpongeBob's face, two buck teeth and giant doe eyes and all. You would've loved shit like this when you were a kid.
He's wearing a matching one on his finger too, though his is pink instead of yellow, Patrick Star instead of SpongeBob SquarePants.
Jungkook holds his polaroid camera with one arm outstretched, while his free hand raises to fit into the photo, showcasing his ring for the shot. You scooch closer to him, mimicking his pose to display your yellow accessory. It takes him to a brief moment to adjust the angle, and before he snaps the photo, you press your lips to his cheek. You feel his bunny grin widen, and for a second you worry that the brilliance of it might just blind the camera.
The photo comes out a bit blurry, a bit out of focus, though it still managed to capture your happy faces and the rings, the carefree crinkle of his eyes and the pink tint on his cheeks. You know instantly that this is one of your favorite photos that you two will ever take.
"Okay, so what are we doing now?" you ask, watching him tuck the polaroid safely into his wallet.
"I don't know. What do you wanna do?"
"What do you mean you don't know? You abducted me."
He shrugs casually. "We could just sit here then. Enjoy the sun."
"You abducted me just to sit around?"
"Stop saying I abducted you. I'm your boyfriend."
You make a face, as if to try to weasel the last word in and argue that yes, Jungkook did abduct you today. Yes, he's also your boyfriend. Both of these things can be true.
Nonetheless, you still let your head rest upon his shoulder, still let his arm wound around your frame to hold you closer. You don't remember the last time you allowed yourself to be in the sun and enjoy a nice day out without worrying about getting ahead of schoolwork or internships. It's nice, like time has stopped for a while just for you to relish the feeling of warm sunshine on your skin.
"I get sleepy if I stay in the sun for too long," you say, already sensing it creeping up from behind your eyelids.
"Then sleep. Just do nothing for the rest of the day," he murmurs, angling his face to the right so he can press a kiss against your forehead. "I know you barely slept last night."
You didn't tell him that you did, in fact, stay up until 5:30AM, hunched over your notebook, trying to finish a piece that you wanted to submit for an internship application. The only person you did tell was Taehyung, when you texted him in the middle of the night with a bunch of keyboard smashes to complain about how tired you were.
You call his name softly, as gentle as the cherry blossom petal that sways in front of you before it falls to the ground. "Did you get me to skip class just so I would take a nap?"
Jungkook's reply is immediate, a half-steady No, but you know he's lying. He has a tell when he lies, one that makes the end of his sentences come out with a tiny lilt, makes his voice go just a note higher.
Looking down at your hands resting next to each other, you keep your lips pursed as your chest tightens. He'd convinced you to miss class because he knew you wouldn't do it on your own accord just to stay home and catch up on sleep. The rings catch on some light, the pit of your stomach catches on some butterflies. Jungkook is warmer than spring itself.
You intertwine your fingers and close your eyes, mostly because you feel them start to burn and you'd rather not dwell on that thought right now. You'd rather focus on the weight of the ring on your finger and how comforting your hand feels in his, how his thumb rubs over your skin back and forth like he always does.
The thought that Jungkook cares about you enough to make up a dumb excuse just so you would care about yourself more - you'll have to shelve it away for later, to mull over when you're alone.
"Love you," you say quietly, squeezing his hand once.
More petals fall. Another kiss pressed against your forehead. "I love you too."

Ellie Williams hc <3
I’m a new author. Might not update much but I will when I can! Sfw. Not proofread.Free Palestine 🇵🇸
Ellie would definitely be an iPad kid. She would also get mad when you interrupt her while she’s eating ramen and on part 36 of the Lorax movie on tik tok
She prefers silver jewlary over gold. She might have her ears pierced and put small earrings in them. Definitely has some simple black metal rings
The girl can skate. Not saying she’s the best but she can do some simple cruising. But she tried to do tricks to impress you and ends up with bruises and cuts
Cannot talk to women for the life of her. When you met Ellie you complimented her outfit. She got nervous and wanted to compliment you back but damn you were hot. She ended saying “oh thanks nice elbows!” The poor girl never lived that down
Is a Fortnite god. But one time she was so hyped for the game that when she died at 2nd place she flopped on the couch so hard she broke a couch leg. Jesse was laughing so hard you could hear him through the headset
When she was little she used to put on a hoodie and her hair on her forehead and used to pretend she was a boy. She would take pictures of herself on her little iPhone6. You somehow got the pictures and laugh at them every now and then
Ellie actually keeps her nails neat and clean. She’ll clean then and file them so they’re not too long. She’ll even put on a coat of clear nail hardener. And for some reason it’s actually really hot
Has drafts on tik tok of her trying to do the “one line” challenges and a bunch of other tik tok Games. However she also has some drafts of guitar playing and a couple thirst traps here and there
She’s your personal chauffeur and will call you her passenger princess. She will blast your shared playlist and have one hand on the wheel and the other in your hand. She likes to mess with people so at a red light she will look at the car next to her and go 🤨✌️
Your saved as “babe💋” on her phone and your contact photo is a cute picture of you in front of a statue or piece of art from a museum. Meanwhile her contact name is “smelly ellie” with a silly picture of her tripping or making a funny face
*Smelly Ellie calling*
You: Hey Smellie
Ellie: STAWP🧍‍♀️🧍‍♀️
As of her occupation, she might actually be a co owner of a guitar shop that Joel bought. Either that or she might work as a mechanic in Tommy’s shop
She follows NASA on Instagram and liked every picture they post of a new image of a star or planet. She’d also send it to you and spit fun facts about it
Her favorite character on SpongeBob is Patrick. She thinks he’s so underrated and a comedic masterpiece. She watches every episode of the new spinoff “The Patrick Show”
The girl has the weirdest conspiracy theories that sound so weird but she makes them make sense. Like you’ll both be out at a restaurant eating and she’ll start telling you how she thinks the world will end
I don’t know about this one but I think she’d also be interested in the ocean. Marine life is just as cool to her and loves aquarium dates (when she’s not hunting down Abby)
When someone says something dumb on Instagram or Tik tok comments she’ll report them and then forget about it. Then when they reply two weeks later saying the user didn’t violate guidelines she’ll get mad again
I feel like no one talks about high school Ellie enough!! The girl played sports like maybe lacrosse and basketball. Joel was in the stands with her uncle Tommy cheering her on and you were with Dina holding a poster and had made a jersey with her name and number on the back. She was a little embarrassed but loved it
She and Jesse tried to convince Dina to let JJ enter a toddler race for a cash prize of 100 dollars
Sorry if this is so bad omg I’m just starting out but thanks for reading!!! This was fun I’ll definitely do more! Don’t be shy drop some recs!
Free Palestine🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸

top 10 best spongebob episodes?
okay, so i'll come forward and say i probably can't give you a top 10. i haven't been caught up with the show for a few years now, and it's been a long while since i've seen most of the episodes, even the ones i do enjoy. so instead what i'm gonna do is give more of a generalized "i remember these episodes being pretty damn good". will probably go out of my way to highlight more niche picks. so uh, these aren't my top 10, just ten episodes i like that i felt like talking about.
all this is under the cut because i don't wanna flood peoples' dashboards talking about Sponge Bob lmao
so first thing first, let's get some of the obvious picks out of the way: i think pretty much everyone knows that pizza delivery (s1, ep 5a), band geeks (s2, ep 35b), graveyard shift (s2, ep 36a), krusty krab training video (s3, ep 50b), and chocolate with nuts (s3, ep 52a) are some of the series' best. probably others i'm missing but like. everyone loves those episodes, countless people have talked about why they're great, i don't think there's much i could say that hasn't been said by other people and said better.
so let's highlight some others that i personally found really good that i probably can say more about!
tea at the treedome (s1, ep 1c)
Tumblr media
man, talk about coming out swinging. this episode is part of the very first block and i think it is so, so strong. i think what makes this episode work so well for me is how they handle spongebob, how he so badly doesn't want to disturb his new friend that he becomes completely passive and can't even ask for water is so good, feels very relatable. i love the way this episode handles his internal monologue, showing his increasing desperation up until he inevitably snaps. ("I NEED IT!") it's so so good, such a good showcase of his character.
patrick's also great here! he hits such that nice balance of "well-intentioned stupidity" that defines all his best appearances. the way he sees spongebob slowly breaking down and tries to remind him to stay classy ("when in doubt, pinky out!"), eventually coming in himself to show spongebob things aren't so bad and immediately being proven wrong, it's all just so good.
my only real knock against this one is that for sandy's debut episode, i feel like she doesn't really get to do a lot. which is definitely a pity, but i dunno, i don't wanna hold it against this episode too much because they definitely give her some great episodes later on, and this episode otherwise nails the character writing.
sb-129 (s1, ep 14a)
Tumblr media
this is a really high-concept episode to put in the show's first season, don't you think? honestly i think this is an episode worth checking out for the spectacle more than anything. don't get me wrong there's some killer jokes, the joke about everything being chrome in the future, the way squidward inadvertently ends up inventing jellyfishing, there's some good stuff, but let's face it. the real reason you come to this episode is for its sheer scale. idk about you, but i can sort of give or take "caveman humor".
but man, this is an episode that goes places. i mean, in eleven minutes, we get a snippet of the future, the past, and the nowhere dimension (the last of which i'll go over a bit later on). on one hand, it kinda feels like the episode has to rush through them all, but on the other hand, it doesn't feel like any of these time periods are meant to be all that fleshed out. they mostly exist to provide an interesting setpiece, deliver a few jokes, and then move the story to the next place. i could see an alternate longer version of this episode feeling like it drags on a bit too much.
and man, that nowhere dimension. i love that scene so, so much. it's surreal, it's memorable, it's a bit unnerving, and it adds so much to this already high-concept episode. that scene's probably the highlight of the whole thing to me (and MIGHT be what elevates it to a personal favorite) but i'd definitely say the whole thing is worth your time.
dying for pie (s2, ep 24a)
Tumblr media
i think this is another of those episodes everyone can sorta agree is one of the best, but eh. i wanted to talk about it anyway because yeah it's just that good. i think spongebob and squidward are probably the best character duo in the entire show, and this is probably the best example of said dynamic. i really like how the plot is set in motion by squidward's carelessness, how his apathy is what forces him to realize how much he actually cares about his neighbor. what i love even more is the balancing act they play with the spongebob-squidward dynamic, the way they're still able to keep spongebob a bit annoying to squidward while still letting squidward genuinely care.
besides all the character stuff, man is this episode just funny. the absurdity of the pirates selling pies that are actually bombs, spongebob's sweater of tears, "Eleven times?!", spongebob's bucket list including showing squidward to everyone wearing a salmon suit and open heart surgery? yeah this episode has a lot of heart (hehe!) but never is it at the expense of the episode's comedy.
the only thing i could maybe see someone holding against this episode is that spongebob having not eaten the pie is kind of an ass pull but like. the writers aren't gonna kill off the main character, come on. and besides, i think the twist ultimately serves the episode well, i think getting that scene of squidward expressing his exasperation over everything he had to go through really reminds us why we love this dynamic: no matter how much squidward secretly cares about spongebob, spongebob's always gonna be a little bit annoying to him. d'awwwww.
squid on strike (s2, ep 40a)
Tumblr media
speaking of good spongebob/squidward episodes! this one is so, so underrated i think. it's not really one of the show's most quotable episodes, but at the same time, i kinda think that works in its favor, if that makes any sense. jokes aren't as good if you know they're coming, so an episode filled to the brim with really good jokes that aren't especially quotable ends up hitting just as hard on rewatches. it might not have the same staying power as something like band geeks or chocolate with nuts, but because of that it manages to always surprise you with just how funny it is.
and to make it clear: this episode is hilarious. mr. krabs trying to charge his employees for things like "existing" and "breathing", spongebob's idea of getting more from his job just being getting to wear a comically oversized hat, the general cluelessness of both spongebob and the population, spongebob taking squidward's anticapitalist metaphors a bit too literally, there's a lot of good material here. probably also helps that this is the episode where squidward says "Nobody gives a care about the fate of labor as long as they can get their instant gratification." so true bestie.
i think what buoys this episode beyond just its great jokes is once again how it nails the characters. spongebob loves his job, sure, but the only thing he loves even more is his good friend squidward, so of course spongebob will become more passionate about the strike when mr. krabs insults squidward! so much so, that he's willing to dismantle the establishment, board by board! and conversely, the one thing that could make squidward give in is the idea that he might be on strike with spongebob forever. as i've said. spongebob and squidward are the best dynamic on this show.
nasty patty (s3, ep 44a)
Tumblr media
this is probably the darkest episode of the entire series, and i love it SO much for that. like, i wouldn't say it's unreasonably dark, they make it apparent from the very first line of the episode that the health inspector doesn't actually die, but we are still looking at an episode of a children's cartoon where the main characters are thoroughly convinced they've murdered an innocent bystander and spend the whole episode trying to cover it up. and it's hilarious.
i think the juxtaposition of such a storyline with a character as innocent as spongebob is what really elevates this episode for me. ("The dark deed you requested is done, sir.") the whole episode ends up becoming this exercise in just how long they can keep up the central joke before the characters inevitably find out what's going on, especially with the multiple fake-outs! i love how there's multiple instances where the health inspector briefly regains consciousness, only to be immediately knocked out again. so good.
and as a result of that structure, it manages to escalate so well, with how they bring in the police and manage to keep coming up with situations where they have to keep the not-so-dead body just barely out of view. the scene where spongebob stuffs the health inspector in his hat (pictured above) is probably the highlight of the episode to me, it just so perfectly illustrates how silly this story manages to get.
fear of a krabby patty (s4, ep 61a)
Tumblr media
so most people agree that the series went downhill after the first three seasons. and they'd be right! the first three seasons are absolutely the show at its peak and the show never managed to recapture its glory days in the seasons that followed. but it's not like they flipped some switch and the show was suddenly bad. hell, if anything, "fear of a krabby patty" (the very first episode after the movie!) might be one of my all-time favorites. in fact, and this statement may sound treasonous, but i think i like this one more than their other 24-hour adventure in "graveyard shift". yeah, i said it! bite me!
of course, the krusty krab being open for 24 hours with spongebob and squidward being forced to work the full shift is about all this episode has in common with that one, as the stories go in pretty wildly different directions from there. i love the way plankton is integrated into this episode. his "dr. peter lankton" schtick is so funny in how obvious his intentions are, leading to some killer therapy jokes and a couple instances of being crushed by a piano.
another highlight of this episode is its distinctive animation style! c.h. greenblatt has a very recognizable art style, you can usually easily tell which episodes he boarded (like dying for pie up above!) but you can especially tell with this one. actually, between its loose, expressive animation and its zippier pacing compared to the classic seasons, this almost feels like sort of like a post-sequel episode? i wonder if this episode would be all that different if they made it in season 11. i don't mean this in a bad way, for the record -- i think this episode manages those traits really well.
mermaid man & barnacle boy vi: the motion picture (s4, ep 67b)
Tumblr media
i don't really have much to say here i just think this one's funny as hell. it's not like it thrives off these intricate character dynamics, or this elaborate well-plotted story, its plot is just a vehicle for a flurry of ridiculous jokes that all end up hitting for me. you know that thing where you see some bad movie and are like, "i could do better than that!" despite having no filmmaking experience? that's the central conceit of this episode, and it works to hilarious effect.
this episode may not thrive off of intricate character dynamics sure, but i still think it uses its characters very well. it does a good job finding everyone's role in making the movie, from spongebob as director, squidward as the makeup artiste, sandy as the pyrotechnician ("Did somebody say BOOM?!"), plankton as the boom operator ("Did somebody say BOOM?!") and of course, pearl as the boatmobile. it does such a good job putting every character in a position where they have extremely high, extremely unearned confidence.
and that's really just where this episode succeeds! it's not complicated, you throw dynamic characters in a ridiculous situation and mine the comedy gold. helps that this episode has some killer running gags.
boating buddies (s6, ep 109a)
Tumblr media
yeah, let's throw a controversial pick on here, why the hell not. so to make things abundantly clear: i do not in the slightest think this is one of the best spongebob episodes ever written. i also totally get why most people hate this one, and i don't think it's unjustified! that being said, when i was watching through season 6, i found this one of the funniest episodes of that season, and after thinking it through a bit, i think i understand why.
i'm not gonna try and dance around the argument that this episode ramps up spongebob's creepiness to absurd levels, or that it's unreasonably cruel to squidward, because it does and it is! HOWEVER. a lot of those criticisms seem to be under the assumption that, like most episodes, we're supposed to root against squidward and for spongebob. and like, that is clearly not the case here. this is very much an episode told from squidward's point of view. squidward doesn't like spongebob, so this episode will show us spongebob's worst side. squidward can't catch a break, because we've all had those days, right? this is an episode that puts the audience in squidward's shoes, and shows us why he's the way he is.
and i dunno, i think when you watch the episode under that pretense, it ends up working! or, at least it does for me. again, i can totally get why someone wouldn't like that characterization even if they understand the perspective this episode is written from. but to me, it ends up making gags like spongebob being able to hear squidward breathing from his house, or the drawn-out blackboard gag set to an orchestral score work that much better. throw in a frenetic boating scene towards the end with that surreal laboratory sequence for a bit of extra energy, and ultimately it ends up being an episode i enjoy. it's definitely not gonna be for everyone, i wouldn't necessarily highly recommend this one, but if you're gonna watch it, at least try to do so with the writers' intentions in mind.
planet of the jellyfish (s8, ep 169b)
Tumblr media
you know, for as long as the show's been on the air, it doesn't feel like you really get those big, outside-the-box episodes all that often. spongebob is a show with a comfortable status quo, rarely deviating from its usual character dynamics, locations, and stock stories, so when we get something like this "invasion of the body snatchers" pastiche, it ends up standing out a lot more among its peers.
i think they made a good decision with this episode to keep spongebob oblivious about what's going on just long enough to mine that for its comedic potential, and no longer. if you had that eat away at much more of the episode, i think it could've dragged, but we get the best material of spongebob's obliviousness (like his awkward conversation with the jelly squidward, or seeing the jellien attempting to bite him and assuming it just wants popcorn), and after that the story lets spongebob find out, lets the story move on, and start building the suspense
i think that the monster movie pastiche does a good job giving this episode a unique flavor, it ends up feeling a bit higher stakes than a lot of spongebob episode, while also using this opportunity to riff on the genre and make a lot of silly and offbeat jokes, like the jellies kidnapping spongebob's spatula for some reason, spongebob freaking out about all his friends being kidnapped... and some random incidental, all the jelly clones hissing at a dude for ordering a patty with mayo (which turns out to be their weakness!), it feels like it does a good job making the most of its genre parody.
krabby patty creature feature (s11, ep 222a)
Tumblr media
oh hey, another b-movie monster movie pastiche. look, i'm not gonna beat around the bush. i'm a sucker for these things, okay? in general, season 11 is probably one of my favorite seasons of the later part of the show's run, i think it generally does a good job feeling fresh with a mix of new character pairings, offbeat story concepts, and a handful of genre pastiches. like this one! truth be told there's absolutely other S11 episodes i could've picked that'd give this list more variety (squid noir would probably be my next choice, consider that an honorable mention) but listen. monster movie episodes are fun, okay?
compared to planet of the jellyfish, i think creature feature is generally a bit more frantic, really thriving from the sense of urgency the story concept provides. less suspense, more action! unlike the previous episode, this episode puts spongebob at the center of the action right from the start, letting him see the situation unfold and ultimately become the one tasked with stopping it. perhaps you miss out on some of the jokes about spongebob's naivety, but the increased tension more than makes up for it. plus we can now use that time to show how the mayhem is effecting people around town, get gags where bubble bass complains about the cheap promotional stunt, or a cop complaining about the zombie apocalypse interrupting his break. good stuff!
this is another episode where i think i have to give a shout out to the animation. i know some people complain about the recent seasons being overanimated, which is a complaint i definitely feel for some episodes, but i think this episode uses its really expressive, really fluid animation to great effect, really selling us on spongebob's terror with these big expressions. i also gotta shoutout some of the character designs for the patty monster versions of the characters, you can tell the animators working on this episode had to have a blast with it, and i feel like the end result really pays off.
and... that's it for the episodes i feel like talking about right now! is this the Cream of the Crop? probably not, but they're all episodes i've enjoyed, and it's nice getting to sit back, elaborate why i like these episodes so much (even if it's been pretty time-consuming LMAO). thanks for asking!

Day 11 of Having a AI Write me Danny Phantom Fever Dream... I mean Fanfic
And here's a new AI generated story, Nicktoons Unite addition and boy is it a fever dream! The prompt? Write me a funny Nicktoons Unite fanfic, now let's hop to it!
Once upon a time, in the world of Nicktoons, SpongeBob, Timmy Turner, Jimmy Neutron, and Danny Phantom were all hanging out in Retroville, discussing their latest adventure.
"So what are we going to do next?" asked SpongeBob, his square eyes gleaming with excitement.
"I have an idea," said Timmy, twirling his wand. "We could go to Bikini Bottom and help Mr. Krabs catch the Krabby Patty thief!"
"I like that idea," said Jimmy, stroking his chin thoughtfully. "But first, we have to figure out how to get there. My rocket is in the shop, and I don't think any of us are certified to drive the Ghost Zone shuttle."
Danny raised his hand. "Actually, I might have a solution. I can ghost portal us all to Bikini Bottom."
"Great plan, Danny!" exclaimed SpongeBob, clapping his hands. "Let's do it!"
And so, Danny summoned his ghost powers and opened a portal to Bikini Bottom. But as soon as they stepped through the portal, they realized something was wrong. The colors seemed off, the water was murky, and there was a strange smell in the air.
"What's going on here?" asked Timmy, wrinkling his nose.
Suddenly, they heard a loud snoring sound. It was coming from Squidward's house.
"Let's investigate!" said Jimmy, pointing to Squidward's door.
They quietly crept up to Squidward's house and peeked inside. What they saw was not what they expected.
Squidward was sleeping with his head on a giant Krabby Patty. The Krabby Patty was so large that it had taken up his entire living room, and Squidward was snoring contentedly with a huge grin on his face.
The Nicktoons looked at each other in confusion. What could this mean?
Just then, they heard a scuffling sound coming from outside. They cautiously went out to investigate and were greeted by a sight that made them all burst out laughing.
The Krabby Patty thief was actually a very fat and very happy Plankton, who was waddling away with a giant sack of Krabby Patties over his shoulder and a blissful expression on his face.
"Looks like Plankton finally got what he wanted," chuckled SpongeBob, shaking his head.
The Nicktoons decided to leave them be and explore the strange dimensions of Bikini Bottom. They encountered a wild gang of jellyfish, a school of deranged anchovies, and even ran into Patrick Star naked on the streets.
In the end, they had so much fun that they couldn't remember what they'd initially come there for, and just went back to their own worlds in hysterics.
The End.
I love how it says everyone else goes back to their own worlds leaving SpongeBob in a messed up version of his, just imagine SpongeBob waving to everyone saying bye and shit then turning around to see his world and just being like "Wait, guys... my worlds still fucked up... GUYS.:
I'm learning a lesson tho, if you ask a AI for a funny story you get along fever dream.

went to see spongebob the musical (in the uk) and i really enjoyed it but i had my suspicions that the broadway / us version was better and i'm watching the pro shot now and it for sure was 😔
thoughts below the cut
i want to be clear that the uk spongebob actor was very good! i was actually uncertain when i saw them in the poster (i thought he might be playing the role too wacky, rather than whimsical), and they totally brought me round. that being said... i'm sorry to say the us guy also TOTALLY blows him out of the water. i won't go into detail but it kind of boils down to, the uk guy "got" spongebob, but the us guy just embodied spongebob down to his core
also again not to be mean (i actually generally make a point of not commenting on specific people cause i wouldn't want them to stumble on it, slim chance though it may be, but. it really was a factor), but the us sandy also blows the uk sandy out of the water. uk sandy definitely did go for a bit of wacky vibe and i just... didn't really buy it as sandy :/
on the flip side, the uk plankton (performed by a drag queen) smashed it so hard. the us plankton is v v v good! if i hadn't seen the uk plankton' y'know? but uk plankton was honestly one of the best parts of the show. the uk costume is also better imo. on the other hand, i think the us show plays a bit more with the smallness of plankton (e.g. the little plankton toy), and it was a shame the uk didn't so much (it really only featured in one moment i can think of)
also, nothing wrong at all with the us patrick, but i did prefer uk patrick (who apparently was on eastenders in the 80s according to the people i was sitting next to?? i was like bro if that's true, they must have been a young kid then cause otherwise they're looking good for their 50s!!)
relatively neutral bc i really enjoyed both versions, but i liked in the uk version how they spelt out B-F-F with their bodies, so i was surprised (and a little sad) it wasn't in the us version. but i liked the us version's letters dancing in the background too. also the uk version spelt out B-F-F in BSL on one rendition (now that i think about it, i think the theatre had one day where they'll do a BSL interpreted performance?) and i really liked that. i'll admit to not being familiar with ASL but i don't think that happened in the us one :(
not a simple sponge amazing in both version - go brendan!
sardine costumes better in uk for sure - much more visually interesting
no night falls joke in the us :(
the sounds in the uk show were really fun (it looks like they went more into the comedy of showing the sounds - a hand just appearing by the microphone to squeak a hamburger dog toy for example 😂) but i'm realising that the us show went more in depth with them - looks like every *single* time spongebob (or another character) moves, the sound effects are right there (which was not the case in the uk - tho it did happen for the big movements).
the uk nailed gary's 'MOW' - the US is a little off tonally imo
mrs puff's outfit in the us is a bit more appropriate i think - you get more of the sense of a pufferfish with the us outfit
the electric skates ON SKATES
the "my leg!" joke (which my sister lamented the lack of in the uk)
i think the spongebob patrick song was more emotional for me personally in the uk - perhaps just because i liked the uk patrick more (subjectively)
i did actually ike the uk avalanche gun more - it blasted air and looked like it actually could cause an avalanche (it was pointed at the audience at one point and it was just to the left of me and i felt this huge blast of air go by me - quite alarming (in a good way!))
the us top of the volcano set - YES
the us mini-sets 🥺 i was sad this wasn't in the uk
the set flowers!!
gary on skateboard!!

Soma, how come you always call me only when I am not sober?! It's as if you have a sixth sense or something or you just want to poke fun at me because you know that I say stupid things while I am drunk! For example, last time when you called...
~insert flashback transition~
Kukki got drunk again and now she's being babysat by Niragi, AGAIN. Niragi left to get something to eat and accidentaly forgot his phone in the bedroom. The phone rings.
Kukki:*picks up the phone* Hello? Kukki speaking. Who is this? *on the other end it's Soma asking for Niragi, without realizing that it's Kukki he's speaking to at first* No, this is Kukki. *ends call*
After another minute, Soma calls again, apologizing for not realizing that it was her on the phone and asking if he could speak to Niragi.
Kukki: No! This is Kukki!*ends call a bit irritated*
The phone rings yet again, the man on the other end trying in vain to explain he needs to talk to Niragi.
Kukki:*this time angry* I SAID THIS IS KUKKI! KUKKI! WHAT CAN'T YOU UNDERSTAND?! *ends the call once again after screaming at him and throws the phone into the wall*
~end of flashback~
Oh wait... On another note I think last time was an accident...
(( Hope you had fun reading this little reenactment of that Patrick scene from that one Spongebob episode, featuring Kukki and Soma! I thought it would be hillarious and since I think Soma was the perfect candidate for the other person on the phone, it was only fair I share it with you! 😂 ))
OH, YES, I REMEMBER THIS. I was calling Niragi because I needed to know if he was allergic to a certain medicine and while this interaction took place I was sobbing in the infirmary, rocking back and forth with tears streaming down my face like 'please, I just want to know if I can give him penicillin I don't wanna have to walk to his room it's so far'.
And Kukki, don't worry about any stupid things you might say or do while drunk! Approximately 70% of the visits to the infirmary are drunk militants and dear God... the things I've heard... they're hard to top.
But next time you could call me, and if I'm not working or with Cass, we could get drunk together! Maybe after a game even.

What was he doing there for 20 minutes anyway?? You'd think he'd call Fang or Ivan after Izzy stomps off and they could cut him down it can't be that hard... on that note I hope we get some more of Blackbeard's old crew insight on him next season I want to know what the dynamic on that ship looks like with some more depth. I HOPE they do season 1 is Stede's season 2 is Ed's season 3 is them coming together properly as a structure I think it'd make sense? There's so much about what Ed was like pre-Stede that's up for interpretation still but we know like, nearly everything about what makes Stede tick
i know you're probably expecting, like, some kind of deep meta here, and who knows what might unravel in a second, but all i can think of is that spongebob and patrick thing, in which izzy is spongebob and ed is patrick
Tumblr media
Ed, hanging off the harness for 20 minutes: he'll be back any second. any second at all. any moment. i just have to wait another minute and he'll come cut me down. any moment now. any moment.
But yes! I want to see and know more about Ed before Stede. We've had a lot of pre-Revenge Stede flashbacks in s1, and we had only two of Ed as a kid. I'd like to see more of him younger and maybe we can have Calico Jack back for some flashbacks and stuff. I'd love to know how he met Izzy, too. Get some actual meat to the past of the relationship and what brought them to where they are now.

Return of the Hash Slingling Slasher ~ Slasher Remake Improved! ~ Pt.3 (1/2)
"Later that night..."
[owl hoots]
[Shows Cafe Guimauve with three big signs that says 'Open Forever ' and 'Whatever']
[Fumito is shown at the counter reading a book]
Fumito Nanahara : [in mind] It's pretty quiet here that I manged to close up shop for a bit. Now here I am in the night, reading my favorite part of the book. No questions ask, no limitations, no bounds of seeing things like in a horror movie. If this place is like a horror movie, I wonder If this is my chance to be here in the night all by myself? But what are the odds of coming to a cultivating conclusion to the next point where everything has each of their parts. No sir, I have absolute confidence on this case. [he hears spooky sounds and the sound of water dripping but he doesn't know what it is] Hm? What was that noise? Eh, probably nothing. [he hears it again and still don't know what it is] Where are those noises coming from? Must've been that crazy feeling [hears it again and finds out what it is] Okay. I know where that sound coming from. It's not me, or not in the kitchen. But what on earth is someone making all those noises?
Saya Kisaragi : [on the ceiling wearing suction cups cleaning, while whistling]
Fumito Nanahara : Man...That is one weird way to hear those noises. [Saya sneaks up on him, whispers into his ear]
Saya Kisaragi : Enjoying of reading your favorite part of the book, Fumito?
Fumito Nanahara : Aah! Jeez, Saya! Don't sneak up on me like that! Did you finish combing your hair and brushing your teeth?
Saya Kisaragi : Yep! I sure did!
Fumito Nanahara : Good! Hope you're willing to get yourself ready to sleep in bed with me, cause it's going to be one sleep over. Before it's lights out for us. And by the way, that spooky noise and sound of dripping water. Was it you doing that to clean the ceiling with those suction cups?
Saya Kisaragi : Precisely, that's the because there's never a time to wash the ceiling during the day! And lucky would might come to our way!
Fumito Nanahara : "During the day"? Since when did places like this would want to have a Graveyard Shift for a night shift for those who want to work at night in any way? Whose crazy idea was it to have a crazy-ass night shift like this?
*Flashback*
Mr.Krabs : From now on the Krusty Krab is open 24 hours a day.
Squidward : [gets up] What!? [crowd of fish barge in cheering and tramples Squidward]
Spongebob : [gasps] Wow! Now we never have to stop working!
*flashback ends*
Fumito Nanahara : Oh for the love of...[growls and says to himself] "Open 24 hours a day", "Open 24 hours a day"! I knew it was that Eugene Krabs' idea for having the Graveyard Shift that it was scariest idea that would be gullible enough to give all the extra credit, I mean if we work here at our work places in any way, this would be the scene of a horror movie, and Graveyard Shift is the name of that horror novel by that novelist Stephen King! People were so crazy about it! More importantly, I have one thing to say this from the Cartoon characters. If I were able to get a midnight snack at 12 O'Clock, who wants a so-called "burger" at 3 in the morning? Like that elder bairn monster from Easter!
[cuts to the Elder Bairn Bunny's bedroom ]
(Alarm cock goes off]
Elder Bairn Bunny : [with Patrick's voice, turns off alarm clock] Oh, boy! 3 A.M.! [whips out a plate of burgers from under his blanket and starts to eat one of it, cuts back to Cafe Guimauve]
Fumito Nanahara : And you know what else is in this scene? Just look at this whole place I established, It's becoming a ghost town here in Japan! This is ideal of a horror movie or a horror game that we get the feels of being scared straight! No one in the world would ever survive a horror movie or in a horror game that have enough courage in their heart for God's sake!
Saya Kisaragi : Yeah, but aren't we part of a horror thing that is really scary when it comes to spooky madness, like ghost stories? Both you and mother told us that the light will guide us towards to "hope". And to think that the darkness is not hated, it's kinda scary as an evil force. Promise that you'll take me out of the darkness by reaching out to you, and you'll never know why it's hard to sleep alone in the dark, because every person feared their selves to the light. But I am the luckiest person that will ever see the light against, "Hope" it was destined that anchors around the soul.
Fumito Nanahara : You are correct, "Hope" is what anchors around the soul, that's where the light guides you to where it was.
Saya Kisaragi : [walks up to the counter]True. I could never abandoned to everything, especially you. [gazes at Fumito while holding his hand] Look deep in my heart and tell me that I'm your favorite girl.
Fumito Nanahara : [nervously] Well, umm, I...
Saya Kisaragi : Say it. Say it that I'm your favorite and I'll make you understand of how much I love you dearly.
Fumito Nanahara : Well, I...[ the lights start to flicker on and off]
Saya Kisaragi : Huh? What's going on here? What's happening?
Fumito Nanahara : I don't know. But I do know is...what's up with the lights flickering on and off?
Saya Kisaragi : I don't know. But I do know that it's only you doing it.
Fumito Nanahara : Saya, I don't think that was me doing it.
~ The Slasher awaits for his arrival ~

TOKYO REVENGERS CHARACTERS WHEN THEIR S/O GAVE THEM A HICKEY
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
warning: itsy bitsy suggestive.
genre: fluff(?)
characters: timeskip!chifuyu matsuno, haitani ran, and sano "mikey" manjiro
note: the setting is set the bonten timeline.
requested here
Tumblr media
Matsuno Chifuyu
FLUSTERED. DEEP CHERRY RED FROM THE TIPS OF HIS EARS DOWN TO HIS BACK. He will be so flustered that he's stumbling on the right words to say, keeping you away at arm's length.
Your relationship with this man is a mature one despite the constant bicker here and there. (Kazutora will always stand witness at your debate at who is cuter, Spongebob or Patrick) You guys always talk when something bothers you and will always come to reconciliation at the end. Chifuyu likes to keep everything like that than be petty at each other. (You can be petty sometimes because he said Patrick is cuter than Spongebob)
But, let us say that there's a regular customer who visits the pet shop and blatantly flirts with your boyfriend in front of you. Though Chifuyu kindly refuses her every time, you couldn't help but feel jealousy pulse through you when you see her seductively touches your man's arm. You almost punched her once, but Kazutora stops you from the sidelines.
Her visits continued to happen, and before you knew it, three months had passed. Every time that customer visited, you and Kazutora exchanged glances while Chifuyu stayed oblivious to her "friendly" endeavors.
Surprisingly, Chifuyu's stupidity can still go lower than it was, amusing you rather than annoying. Until one day, your jealousy has reached its peak, and you grab Chifuyu away from the woman, smiling at her as you push past the door in the pet shop.
"That's rude, (y/n)! Where are we going?"
"We're drinking."
Okay, first, both of you have a low alcohol tolerance. So when one is drunk, the other should be sober. Though as you expect, it didn't happen as usual, but this night is different than the usual. You were drunk as one can humanly possibly be, and Chifuyu has sober up from your kisses.
You are acting too bold, to be honest, taking your boyfriend by surprise. Trying to steal kisses from time to time, and Chifuyu will break a fuse because he can't process your shameless deeds. If he had enough, he took you out as soon as possible out of the club where you took him in. And, you can guess what happened next.
His hand grips harshly onto your arms as you guys enter a room he booked in a hotel. You were giggling like a child inside the room, flailing your arms in the open air. Chifuyu's aquamarine eyes watch you play around the room, glaring almost in your playful feat. The blush on his cheeks still dusted his skin like cherries waiting for someone to pick them out, and in this case, for you to take responsibility.
"Suddenly acting so bold," Chifuyu rests his hand on his hips, "What's the matter, babe?"
You flop down the bed, "I'm jealous, Fuyu."
"Are you jealous of that regular customer?"
He sits at the edge of the bed, eyes still lingering on your figure. You chuckle when you see that familiar glint in his eyes, one that already begs for your attention. You sit up and put your hands on his exposed neck, touching the hickey you gave him at the bar. Chifuyu might not be as stupid as you think he is, a perceptive guy.
"This hickey looks good on you."
"Everything you gave me looks good, (y/n)."
You smirk as Chifuyu moves his lips closer, "Want me to add more?"
Haitani Ran
Teasing. This man is full of that, and especially when you tried initiating intimacy. But, if he sees that you were down than
Your relationship is another chill one. Don't fuck because we all know how crazy this man can be. But that doesn't mean Ran will be a total asshole because he is a loyal man. A little bit obsessive, if anyone is curious. So, you don't have to worry if he's cheating because he will not do it.
However, no matter how he refuses other girls, we can't deny that your fiance is an attractive man. Thus, other people still swoon over him. He may reject them, but he told you once that he got them wrapped around his fingers. (Well, so are you) That doesn't stop the green-eyed monster from taking over your chest gradually.
Unlike Chifuyu's, your relationship is quiet than filled with senseless banters. Talking won't do much unless one of you finally says something about the elephant in the room. Ran is soft enough to listen to what you have to say and change things according to what you guys talked about.
But, this particular feeling inside of you is different, more malicious than the usual pinch inside your chest. Ran's secretary, an assistant that you've been wary of since day one, has been touching your lover a lot based on what you observed. You didn't care about it at first, knowing that Ran always keeps boundaries at bay, but it happened way too many times to let it slide.
Instead of making a scene, you plan on how to tell Ran, and a golden idea pops into your mind: Wine and cheese. I don't see this man liking beer. He is probably more of a wine guy. That goes the same as you are. Your dates consist of a wine night with those fancy cheese platters. (He bought the tastiest and most expensive one)
This man prides himself on alcohol tolerance, mocking you for having a low one. So, expect tons of subtle teasing during your dates or when he notices your tipsy antics.
Once you are obviously drunk, you boldly take your plan and be touchy with your lover. His expression will be indifferent, but the confusion that shines in his eyes is enough for you to know his state. Words were absent as you kissed, pouring out the frustration you had for a while. As an observant man, Ran probably already knew what you're up to.
"Are you sure about this, my dear?" he asked, caressing your cheek.
You pursued your lips before you nodded, "I...Yes, I am."
"Is it because of her?" he pulls you to sit on his lap, and you silently abide him.
You gaze into his amethyst eyes, admiring his beauty under the dim lighting of your dining area. Ran caresses the expanse of your back, and the heat of his hands left you begging for more of his touches. You yearned for this, for his hands to graze your skin once more. If it weren't for his secretary, you wouldn't be this needy in front of your man.
"Aw, my darling is jealous. It's alright because I'm yours no matter what."
"You're telling me to do whatever I desire?"
Ran smirks at your lighted expression, "I am yours to claim."
Sano "Mikey" Manjiro
He doesn't care. Honestly. Mikey lost the ability to care about trivial stuff. Did you get him a hickey? He'll flaunt it to everyone with his round-neck shirt. Heck, he will even glare if he sees someone looks at him wrong. If you gave him one as a mark that he is yours, then he will abide by your musings.
It's rare to see this man flirt with someone. Have you seen how closed off that man is? He had nothing. (LMAOSOS love you, Miks) So, when you don't have to worry because he's alone most of the time and only talks to you or the bonten executive.
Though, your relationship is less affectionate than the others. Since, realistically, Mikey will be as close off to you as he is to others. (Though, you have access to special treatments) But he is trying his best to make you feel his love. It's subtle, but they are there. However, you also have days where you doubt your relationship and think that you might not be good enough for him.
It usually happens whenever he comes backs after months of not talking. (I'm betting my life that he has those episodes where he'll shut everyone off for weeks) And when he's back, he'll eat dinner with you or be in the same room as you. That's all.
So, when he came back after three weeks, you immediately thought of a fancy dinner. Like Ran, he prefers wine over beer since his palette doesn't like any bitter-tasting food/liquids. And that is when you tried being touchy with him, testing the water to see if he's comfortable with you. (Though your courage came from the buzz of an alcoholic high)
"I missed you," you mutter under your breath, sitting on his lap, "So much."
Mikey looks at you and caresses your face, "I'm sorry."
Tears immediately well up your eyes, attempting to escape your eyes, but you take a deep breath to keep yourself from crying. It's been weeks since you had the time to spend like this with your lover. Despite understanding Mikey's state, you couldn't help but feel like you weren't enough as his partner. You also had your limits, and your doubts eat you slowly when he's away. His apology alone was enough to break all of the walls you build-up to this day.
"It's fine," you smile, "I'm fine as long as you come back."
"I will, I promise," Mikey kisses away the tears in your eyes.
His silent declaration of his love, a thank you after all the pain you endured because of him. And, you cry as you indulge in his kisses, letting him unravel in front of you. All of your yearnings pour out of your actions, turning into something more than exchange kisses, more intimate between the two of you.
"Thank you for staying, (y/n)."

i’m bad too 15 || kdy & reader
Tumblr media
title: i’m bad too - drabble series pairing: kim doyoung x reader genre: angst, fluff, smut, goodboy!doyoung, nerdy!dy (basically he’s a dork) & badgirl!reader, hitman!au, oc-isn’t-a-hitman-but-she-could-be!au, word count: 1.8k warnings: none !! a/n: a “leading” chapter, before something actually happens! so, not the most exciting, but... yeah. :D
please let me know if anyone wants to be tagged! taglist: @wownajaemin​​​​ @crescent-iak​​​​ @ncttboo​​​​ @byunbaekby​​​​​ @jinfizz​​ @doyoungyoung​​ @ahgayeah0305​​ @doyobun​​ @sexualitaeyong​ @mrkleelvr​​ @m1ss-foodi3​​
← previous chapter || next chapter →​​
If it’s one thing you’ve learned about yourself, it’s that you hate when Ten chews his food with his mouth open. He chomps it like a cow munching on grass, and sometimes, he even makes those weird wet sounds if the food is soft and squishy enough.
But after laying in a hospital bed for a week, unable to speak, you’re missing the ability to call your big brother ‘disgusting’ across the table, toss something in his direction, and him opening his mouth to show the contents of his dinner inside.
“Are you fucking insane? You let her go into hellfire, knowing damn well she wasn’t protected?” The voice is familiar, loud, and straining, like they’re on the verge of tears but too instilled with anger to let the sadness seep through. “I thought I said to keep her fucking safe if you wanted to work together.”
“I don’t work in the field, Ten. I don’t control what happens at the moment.”
“Yeah, but you set the commands. You give the orders. She’s fucking on her deathbed, Taeyong—“
“Don’t fucking say my name in public,” he hisses through his gritted teeth. “Listen. If it’s not her, it’s me.”
“I’d rather it be you.”
“You need me, Ten. Who is gonna do the dirty work for you? Look at those pretty fingers. You wouldn’t hurt a soul. But your sister—you know damn well she’s got potential to be more. This is just a hurl she’s jumping over. When she recovers—“
“You’ve got to be fucking insane, you think I’m gonna let her go back out there when you put her in harms way?”
Before the conversation could continue, you hear the door click shut, and the shuffling of flat shoes tapping against the cold tiles, reaching to your bedside. You can’t see, your body won’t let you fully awaken, and you can’t speak with this tube lodged in your throat. But the whiff of the cologne that comes hits your nostrils is a familiar one. It’s Doyoung.
He sighs, like he’s been troubled and you can’t even blame him. You told him not to worry, that you’d stay safe, and here you are—unable to move, unable to wake up, unable to breathe on your own, and unable to talk.
You hear his moments; the scuffing of his oversized denim jacket against the leather seat by your bed, browsing through the drawers with each push and slam until he finds what he’s looking for, and when you hear the television turn on, you could only assume it was for the remote.
“I wonder if they have Marvel movies playing,” he says, seemingly to no one in particular until you realize he’s speaking to you, in spite of the fact that you’re very much in a deep sleep. “I know they’re not your favorite, but you tolerate it. I never got to ask what kind of movies you liked. I… I guess I was being a little selfish when you gave me attention that I never considered to ask.”
You wanna tell him that you actually don’t even like movies, in fact, you prefer sitcoms in spite of your very evident opposite personality. If you could, you would tell him that you watch those superhero movies because he’s into them, that if you get to see that pretty little smile on his face, it makes you forget all your problems and… the moment is worthwhile.
Warmth reaches your fingers, and you could only assume that it’s Doyoung holding your hand. It’s a familiar feeling of home, like you’re meant to be here with him, except the current setting isn’t necessarily favored.
“Do you like Spongebob?” He asks, as if you could even respond. “Mm. Doesn’t really seem like your thing, but I feel like you’re the type to not look like you enjoy it, but you actually love it because it’s annoying.”
He’s… right. You want to laugh, genuinely laugh because Kim Doyoung is spot on with his prediction. He knows you better than he gives himself credit for, because he doesn’t change the channel and watches the TV with you.
“I bet you like sitcoms,” Doyoung mentions randomly, eyes still on the screen. “Like maybe not Modern Family, but maybe like… Parks and Rec. You don’t seem like you’d enjoy the Office too much, maybe Michael Scott is too much of a character but Andy Bernard looks like a guy you’d scare to the point he’d piss his pants, but you’d like him.” Again, you think to yourself. Because Doyoung got it right yet again.
He’s quiet for a bit, letting Spongebob play in the background and you could hear the conversation between Spongebob and Patrick. Truthfully, you don’t know what’s actually happening, but the feeling of being with Doyoung like this, hand in hand with something stupid playing on TV is your favorite.
It’s casual. No missions, no guns, no family business—just you and Doyoung.
Tumblr media
Doyoung doesn’t say much on the day you finally wake up. With a tube wedged down your throat, it’s difficult to have a two-way conversation anyways, and seeing you like this probably breaks his heart, so any word that leaves his mouth might be with a stutter and a sob.
Spongebob plays on the television for another hour before Doyoung eventually breaks the glass of quietude, letting out a soft chuckle at something Patrick said. “Sorry,” he apologizes quickly, glancing over at you. “Wasn’t sure if you liked Spongebob.” Although you can’t speak, the soft squeeze of his hand gives away your approval, and a gentle smile tugs on his face.
There's another moment of silence, just before Doyoung lowers the volume of the TV before gathering enough courage to talk. It takes a lot to get himself to speak up against you, someone he sort of feared yet at the same time had strong feelings for.
“I know what you do,” he announces, eyes never leaving the flickering screen with cartoon characters under the deep blue sea do stupid things, unmatching to what he wants to say next. “I can’t say that I totally get it, because I don’t. I’d be lying if I said I did, but… you do those things, and I’m not a hundred percent sure what to make out of it, but I get why it was hard to confess… those things.” He runs his fingers through his greasy locks, accumulating in oils from how long he’s stayed here without going home to shower. “I kind of thought I was going to date someone really simple one day, yaknow? Settle down with a girl who has a job, sweet and kind, with the same end goal in mind. Get married, have kids… all that fun stuff.”
Your nose twitches at that. Because you’re definitely not that.
“But then I met you, which is… well,” he lets out a faint laugh, “... the complete opposite of all of that. You’re dangerous, cold, and oftentimes, I’m left hanging by a thread, confused on what we are and what I actually mean to you.”
If you could, you’d interrupt him right then and there. Tell him your sorrys, belatedly confessing your true feelings for him, let him know you’d be better for real this time, but truthfully, you’re not sure if he’ll believe you anyway.
“And I could just drop everything right now. Just get up, leave, move on. Tell you that I don’t want this anymore, that whatever you’re in, I don’t wanna be roped in and get involved in your baggage.” It’s like you could hear the cracking of your heart as it falls into the depths of your stomach because your chest feels empty when he says that. The worst part is when you can’t defend yourself, tell him that it’s not like that, but in the end, Doyoung does it for you.
“Yet, I’m still here, right? Because I don’t get you, I don’t get whatever it is you got yourself caught up in, but… after knowing, it oddly makes me… trust you more. So, I’ll stay.”

“Fuck,” Ten curses underneath his breath, getting slightly frustrated with the wheelchair being caught on the steps of your home again. “Fucking shit, nothing here is disability accessible.”
It’s still hard to talk, but a weak laugh escapes from your lips.
“Don’t laugh, you’re the one in the wheelchair not doing shit.”
When he gets you through the front door, and into the hallway, you can’t help but stare at Ten curiously. He furrows his brows at this, hands at his hips with a gesture of his chin. “What’s in your head?”
“Uh,” it’s straining to speak, but if not now, it’s never. “I overheard a conversation when I was asleep. I-I don’t know if it was a dream or… I don’t know. But I heard you talking to someone, uh, someone particularly… with a reputation.”
His body goes rigid.
“Right,” you state, feeling more confident that the discussion was definitely not a dream. “So this entire time, you’ve been working with the organization?” Ten only sucks his cheeks, unable to formulate a proper rebuttal, so you take advantage of this. “This whole time, you let them constantly probe and ask me to be part of them—”
“I told him not to—”
“Well, he’s been asking, Ten, and he hasn’t stopped. I got contracted to be part of them temporarily, not permanently. This was supposed to be a one and done deal, you realize that, right?”
He scoffs. “You think that anything you do with Lee Taeyong could just be easily brushed under the rug? Hell no, you have to be insanely rich to pay off that guy. He thinks you’re talented, you know? What do you think this is?”
“I could just get up and leave—” “In your fucking dreams, kid,” Ten lets out a chuckle of disbelief, shaking his head. “I agreed to work with him before I knew that you were already contracted with him. There’s shady people in the business. There’s so many messed-up dudes who would bend the laws to get what they want. I don’t want that, but I have to protect myself.”
“But—”
“Wanna hear something, kid? Taeyong doesn’t think this accident,” Ten gestures to your wounds, heart tightening at the sight of you in pain. “... this accident, is just… it. He calls this an obstacle. He thinks this is just a bump in your progress, something you need to overcome before you hop back into the field and start training all over again. He’s not gonna let this go, doesn’t matter if I’m his client. Fuck, kid, he has a shit ton of clients.”
Uneasily, you grip onto the wheels of your seat. “Then what do you want me to do?”
“It’s your loss, kid. Either kill Taeyong and take his seat or you gotta work for him.”

I'm spamming you with these I hope that's okay, only pick the ones you actually like aha
"gorgeous gorgeous girls love soup"
hihi anon !! I SEE UR SPAM MUCH LOVE <33 i appreciate ur dedication to the ask game HAHAH so im gonna respond all of yours in this one ask :’’) 🥰 ALSO GORGEOUS GORGEOUS GIRLS LOVE SOUP IS SENDING MEE
....... anon............ im ngl........... im feeling a series for this one :o UR MIND 🤩 okay some of these titles are funny but the last title you sent ties a lot up rlly nicely??? and um. since i am in love with jay (loml) i think i will make these for jay <33 im seeing a lighthearted college au bc everyone knows im a slut for college aus :/ sorry 
also sorry idk why most of these got so angsty LMFAO :’D
gorgeous gorgeous girls love soup
you don’t take the whole sorority girl thing that seriously. you don’t even care about the feud that delta sigma theta has against omega phi gamma; your gripe with jay park lies solely in the fact that he’s an insufferable asshole who nearly got you suspended for starting an argument at your charity ball. now, though, you both have to volunteer at the soup kitchen together for the next two months. 
you thought your issues with this arrangement would be the fact that you couldn’t stand jay, but now things are different when you get to know jay better. and maybe it’s a little hot that he’s part of a band. for once, you think you can tolerate the guy, and maybe—just maybe—you might be catching feelings.
never have i ever
to no one’s surprise, you and jay are a thing, and everyone’s relieved that your only gripe with each other is being deemed as spongebob and patrick by your organizations. now, you and jay don’t really do things, but nevertheless, you test out being exclusive. 
however, a game of never have i ever has you both questioning whether you two will truly work out. more specifically, the prompt “never have i ever been in love” kicks you in the ass (and jay in the heart). 
strawberries and cigarettes
getting close to jay makes you vulnerable, you realize. thus, you both formulate a set of rules to keep your affairs strictly “no strings attached.” said strings start to fall apart at the seams, and you find yourself growing more and more attached to jay. you think this might actually be love. 
there’s a problem, though. you don’t want to be in love, and you certainly don’t want to open your heart to jay park. you have to break his heart before he writes more songs about you.
back to square one
at the ripe age of sixteen, you learned that people will always disappoint you. you realized this when you discovered your ex-boyfriend cheating on you. so, to protect your own heart, you decided to break others instead.
you think you’ve shattered jay’s heart to pieces, but he can’t get you out of his head.
code word: pineapple
okay, so maybe you’ve made a lot of mistakes along the way (jisung confirms this a lot), but you have never been so sure of wanting jay back. the only way to do that, however, is be completely honest about your feelings. you have to tell jay that you love him. that he lights you on fire. that the burns that followed are worthwhile. 
one problem: you have no idea how to confess. 
luckily for you, code word: pineapple was created by your social organizations as a warning for whenever you and jay—fire and gasoline—were in close proximity. it was now time for you to reinvent that meaning.
or, the one where code word: pineapple is how you try to tell jay he’s your home.
baby blue
jay thinks you’re the color red—bold, vibrant, and blunt. but now you’re navigating a full-fledged relationship and have never felt so wary of every little thing. you’re baby blue, but maybe you’re okay with that.
or, the one where you try your hardest to be the best girlfriend you can be. 
hope i never lose you, hope it never ends
college is coming to an end and everyone’s thinking about the future—about internships, about jobs, about marriage. when jay reveals that he wants to go to graduate school across the country while you’re entering the work force, you wonder if your relationship is hanging on by a string. 
for once, thankfully, you both want to make it work.

The secret brilliance behind Nickelodeon All Star Brawl‘s marketing
Lately I’ve been thinking a lot about the Nickelodeon fighting game after it was announced, progressing from mild interest to ironic excitement to unironic excitement for it.  So many jokes and memes have been made about it that they’re almost impossible to avoid.  But when I thought about it, I realized that that’s exactly what the marketing team for this game wanted.  The idea of the game is so absurd that no one would expect it to exist, but they figured out a way to make absolutely sure that it would create just the right buzz to get people like me to take serious interest in it.
Watching the trailer again, I figured out that every character they picked to showcase in that minute and a half trailer were carefully and strategically chosen to cater to as many people as they could.  Even the order of their appearance had deliberation behind it.  Here are my thoughts:
Michelangelo comes first, establishing that the game is combat focused.  After all, who better to show off first for a fighting game than a character that has already appeared as a playable character in at least two of them?  Plus, the Ninja Turtles are the oldest characters in Nickelodeon’s library when you consider that they first aired in the 80′s, before Nickelodeon even started making cartoons.  This is a character that everyone recognizes, parents included.
Lincoln Loud comes next, a more modern character that adults might not know but kids will.  This is to quickly lure the kids, who have less patience than adults, into watching the rest of the trailer, assuring them that it won’t just be older characters like the turtles that show up.
Powdered Toast Man comes next to snatch up the other side of the equation, the adults/90′s kids who remember him from the original Ren and Stimpy show from 1991.  I’m not sure if it’s still airing as reruns on Nick today, but considering I hear very little about the show online, I’m guessing not.  This is a bit of a surprise to the adults who thought it’d be a kids’ game, so it lures those folks into staying for the rest of the trailer as well.
Sandy is important to show off early for a number of reasons.  Spongebob is popular among kids and Millenials, and is arguably the only property here as well known as Ninja Turtles, so they’re luring in more fans.  It also serves to imply that other Spongebob characters will join, as, even though Sandy’s passion for karate makes total sense for her to appear in a fighting game, you still can���t leave out Spongebob himself.  Showing her first implies more possibilities of characters to come, proving it won’t just be a festival of protagonists like Jump Force was.  It also shows off their female representation to keep women interested.
Patrick is just a fan favorite to get out of the way before the sponge shows up, so he’s only here to confirm that the game is going to be full of characters that people actually want to see.
Oblina was personally a shocker to me, as I barely remember Ahh Real Monsters from my own childhood, but I remember enough to know that she wasn’t the protagonist, necessarily.  I also know it’s relatively obscure in comparison to Spongebob or Ren and Stimpy, so they proved that they are willing to take characters from more obscure shows that the young kids won’t remember.  This solidified my interest as I could tell that they are doing more to cater to the 90s generation than just confirming Powdered Toast Man.
Nigel Thornberry is arguably their most important addition at the halfway point.  Outside of Spongebob characters and maybe Stu Pickles, I would say Nigel is the internet’s favorite Nickelodeon character to use for memes.  The marketing team had to have known this.  After getting some of the core audiences hooked, they now have the memer crowd invested, ready to spread the word about the insanity of this game’s premise across the internet.  This is exactly what happened, and why the trailer has 2 million views on Youtube right now.
Lucy Loud is shown off quickly to remind the younger crowd to keep watching, and to add a little bit more female representation.
Spongebob is shown off a little bit late, but since we were expecting him to show up, it’s just to make sure the casual fans who only know the big names stay watching.
Helga is an older character, but I recently saw a young kid wearing a Hey Arnold tee shirt at the supermarket, so I’m positive it’s being shown as reruns on Nick today, so most Nick fans of all ages will be excited about her.  Moreover, since she came immediately after Spongebob, who is a protagonist that was introduced after Sandy, a side character from his show, it gives an implication that Arnold will also appear.  Although he is not introduced in this trailer, it allows the fans to speculate that he will soon be showcased, perhaps in the next trailer.  Also, she’s the fourth female character shown, confirming that the game is being fair and inclusive to both sexes and not simply catering to male gamers, like say, Jump Force or Dragonball Fighter Z.
Reptar is another shocker, because although Rugrats is very popular and well known throughout the generations, he is a very, very minor character in the show.  He is literally a fictional character within a separate fictional universe.  The marketing team threw him in to show off that just about any character from any Nick property, no matter how minor or obscure, has a chance of making it into this game.  Again, this forces the fans to speculate about future announcements with even more creative thinking, as we now know that it won’t just be major characters joining the fray.
Zim is a well thought out choice because he caters to a specific crowd that I’d describe as the alternative niche.  That is to say, there are people who are fans of Invader Zim who don’t watch other Nick shows, so they are luring in the folks you’d expect to see at Hot Topic and the like.  It was an edgy show with a feel and fanbase unlike other shows of its era, so it’s important to use him to diversify the roster.  They also showed off Gir as his assist, and although that may deconfirm him as playable, it still pleases the fans, who often prefer Gir over Zim.
Danny Phantom is the only character that comes strictly from the 2000s era, so they are making sure to maintain the attention of the teenagers who watched that show as kids.
Leonardo seems like an odd choice to end on, maybe even anticlimactic, since they started with Michelangelo, but it makes sense when you think about it.  They couldn’t show just 1 turtle, or else it might imply that the game’s roster was small.  But if they showed all 4 turtles, they would have needed to leave two other characters out of the trailer to make room for them, and they didn’t want to make it look like a Turtles fighting game with guest characters.  So having exactly 2 turtles allows them to show off enough characters from other properties, while also confirming unofficially that the other turtles would appear later, since you can’t just have 2 of the 4 turtles in the game.  By leaving it open like that, they’re giving an implication that the roster is going to be huge.  So big that the turtles were just a small portion of it.  They end the trailer this way to leave the crowd speculating again: how many characters will appear in total?
The only characters that curiously don’t show up in the trailer are the cast of the Avatar franchise, who are quite popular.  However, one of the stages shown is clearly the Air Temple with Aang’s glider in plain sight, implying that Avatar characters will be announced later.  Another smart move to instill hope in the fans.
Finally, the Rollback Netcode announcement that came afterward solidified a very important group- the serious/competitive gamers.  For those who don’t know, rollback netcode is relatively new technology that speeds up online gameplay to cut down on input lag, which is super important for fighting games in particular, as they rely on strict timing more than other game genres.  It’s so new, however, that not all competitive fighting games use it.  Popular tournament fighters like Super Smash Bros, Tekken, and Dragonball Fighter Z have not implemented rollback netcode for their games yet, so of all games, Nickelodeon All Star Brawl beating them to the punch is causing a stir.  This is a sign that the devs are putting serious effort into making the game enjoyable online, which could potentially help its chances to be taken seriously in competitive settings.  Only time will tell if that truly happens, but it’s a sign of quality, nonetheless.
So ultimately, this short trailer and announcement manage to cater to dang near every crowd that may want to play it: Kids, teenagers, young adults in their 20s and 30s, parents in their 40s, men, women, memers, casual fans, alternative fans, and serious gamers, and opens up a ton of potential for speculation regarding new announcements.  That’s a fantastic way to start off and explains why this game, which for all intents and purposes should have been nothing more than a thought experiment that people joke about in the car with friends, has been trending so much for the past two weeks.  Congrats to the marketing team for what they put together.

hii here's something for your platonic matchup event! (also your blog looks so cool!)
in short, I am a ambivert. I'm introverted more when I am in public or around others who I don't know, I actually can be really shy and start hiding. literally I start awkwardly smiling every time I am feeling awkward or embarrassed, but I am polite if I am at someone's house or anything.(l have crackhead energy) v extroverted around my family + friends, loud and talkative lol. I rant- and I will go on for hours about anime/manga or anything tbh (my theories and random talk about it.). I laugh all the time, I can be funny at times,also a clutz- never trust me with anything!! oblivious and kind of dense- I have a v caring side to me, I am the therapist/mom/fun friend with others (I'm not a fan of physical touch sometimes, but if someone needs a hug, I give them one). I would say negatives is that I am not so very vocal person, I just prefer keeping my emotions inside (trust isses). + very blunt, It can come off as harsh so i say sorry a lot. I am really moody- mostly I get irritated but I don't lash out I just shut down (which happens if I don't like what someone says/does or I am being ignored.). If it helps I have been described as bakugou katsuki (when I am mad), and atsushi kinugawa, + sara chidouin + ranmaru kageyama.
for my looks// I'm around 5'2-5'3, I have black (in the front it is sort of orange/brown bc I tried dyeing and then failed. so it fades from orange/brown to black.) medium length curly hair (it's the kind that gets so poofy when dry-) so I usually keep it in two low buns or straighten it. I am an hourglass shape (ish) I have some chub (around my stomach area and chubby cheeks).
some hobbies of mine// writing, gaming, watching anime, makeup + fashion (mostly just window shopping and making pretend outfits), reading manga.
likes// chocolate milk.sweet foodz. lazing around
dislike//loud noises.arguments.bugs ( I scream+run etc.)
i look for a friend who is very loyal (they aren't two faced either, like they could talk about someone but then act all nice around that person the next), we could have fun and joke around w/ eachother. Someone who is a very caring friend too, and can comfort me if I need it. FUNNY! I love people who I can tell a joke too. chill friendo, we can just sit next to eachother and relax ( probably like what spongebob and patrick are- just randomness all around!)
take your time!!

HII!!! Thank you for the compliment+requesting! I match you with...
ෆ ISABELA MADRIGAL
( while writing this I was thinking about isabella AFTER her transformation,, but you could think of her before casita broke down in this if you want!! )
- When you and Isa first met and she tried talking to you, I imagine you probably awkward-smiled at her ..and she found it .. endearing! and funny;; IN A GOOD WAY OF COURSE,,
- Isa would definitely be more than willing to listen to whatever you're interested in.... She might look uninterested but shes listening to every word you say.
- If you ever trip while you're around her she'll make flowers to soften your fall! Would also take you to Julieta if you get injured, ^^ would also make sure that you don't have to hold anything fragile in your arms,,, for your safety and everyone else's!
- You and Isabela would have a mini dress up session in her room!! She would ask you for your opinions on her outfits since she knows you'd be honest on what you think.. She'd let you borrow anything in her closet :D
- Isabela would come to you whenever shes sad and needs to vent a little about her feelings.. Shes also willing to listen to you though and would never force you to tell her anything you aren't comfortable with telling her! 。゚(゚´ω`゚)゚。
- would ask you to do her makeup... Kind of a weekly thing.. she'll ask you to do some kind of crazy look and you just have to try and recreate what shes asking for,, Would love anything you do to her face though!
A Song that reminds me of your guy's friendship:
