Okayyy, potential trope for you. Let's see if I can get your gears turning.

It's nice to meet your idol, right? Maybe it's your favorite actor or musician.

Say, our dear reader finally scores tickets to a meet and greet of some sort. She's been saving up for a while and she's very excited to meet [guy of your choosing]. Said man takes an interest in the reader and invites her to an after party. While initially excited, once there, the reader sees this isn't exactly what it's cracked up to be.

One specifically for Cap. Similar to the plot above but not an AU. Captain America saves the reader's life in one of the many attacks on New York lol. The reader delivers baked goods to Steve as a thank you, but it seems he has other plans. American's Golden Boy may not be as sweet as everyone thinks.

Title: Baker’s Dozen

Pairing: Dark!Steve x Baker!Reader

Wordcount: 1,378

Summary: You just want to deliver a personal thanks to the man who saved your life.

Warnings: Dark, Implied Noncon, Drugging, Burnt Fluff, Meet Cute, DEAD DOVE DO NOT EAT, MINORS DNI

A/N: i had so much fun writing this, even though it took three tries! Unedited and unbeta’d, I do not consent for this or any work to be posted anywhere else by anyone but me. Read at your own risk, and mind the warnings. Enjoy!

The elbow narrowly misses the box of cupcakes in your hands, but only because you turn away just in time, taking the unassuming blow to your side instead. You grunt with pain, and the blonde who’d elbowed you looks back over her shoulder. Her eyes track over you like she’s sizing you up.

“Sorry.” You can tell by the curl of her lip that she isn’t sorry at all. “We’ve just been waiting here so long, I was stretching out.” She’s wearing a Captain America t-shirt, Steve’s smiling face looking out at you soullessly from the image. “Have you been here long?”

You’d been waiting longer than she had—but unlike her, you weren’t there as a fan, not really.

“Yeah,” you reply tartly. “A while.” Her obligational apology complete, the blonde turns back to the tower entrance, standing on her tip-toes to catch a peek of the heroes inside. You were in awe of them, but not like her. Last year, during the invasion of New York, Steve Rogers had personally saved your life. The memory is still so vivid that it sours your stomach.

Horrible, alien chattering, the smell of charred flesh—no thoughts, only cold, clear panic—bodies, under the rubble, under cars, in the street, running—and then him. Cutting down your pursuers with a precision that chilled you to think about.

“It’s okay, doll. Let’s get you out of here, okay?”

You wouldn’t be here without him.

The crowd begins to murmur, people jostling you as they begin clamoring for a glimpse of the people approaching the tower. The low murmur rises, becoming a dull hum and then louder as the street began to echo with the shouts of adoration. It’s like the Avengers are celebrities, not heroes, the way people scream and fawn. You clutch your container as the sea of people rocks you, praying you don’t lose hold of it.

All of them are there—Natasha, the Black Widow, Tony Stark, Bruce Banner, Thor—and Steve Rogers. You try to go over your script in your head again, trying to remember all the parts. Hi, I just wanted to thank you for—

“Tony! Tony Stark!” Someone behind you screams. “I love you!” His head swivels in your direction, and your face burns with secondhand embarrassment.

“These for me?” He asks you, smirking as he gestures to the box.

“I, er, well actually—” The blonde elbows accidentally-on-purpose again, and this time your box slips from your grasping fingers, and tumbles face down onto the concrete.

“Ooops.”

You bite your lip as Tony bends down to collect the card inside, swiping a glob of frosting off of the front of it, before his eyes flick up to you.

“Not for me, then.” He looks over his shoulder. “Capsicle, this one’s all you.” Your heart hammers in your chest at his words, and embarrassed tears begin gathering in your eyes. You’d gone to a lot of trouble to wait here, just to thank him. There were others he’d saved, you know that, but… still.

This was stupid anyway.

Steve pulls the card from Tony’s fingers, and your face heats as his eyes move over the thank you written on the inside. You’d rather hoped you wouldn’t be around when he read it, but then again, you’d hoped he’d actually be able to eat the cupcakes you’d spent the better part of this morning—and yesterday night—slaving over. But instead, they were smashed on the sidewalk, and he was reading your card right in front of you.

“I, I—”

“You made these for me?” He asks, and you swear steam must be pouring out of your ears, from the heat of your cheeks.

“Yes,” you murmur, clearing your throat before repeating yourself, louder. “Yes. I wanted to say, um. Thank you. For saving me.” He flashes you one of those million watt smiles you’ve seen him give on television, and your chest tightens.

“Well I’ll tell you what. Since I didn’t get to eat these, why don’t we try this again?”

“Again?” You repeat stupidly, your brows knitting together.

“Again.” He confirms with a nod and a wider smile. “Why don’t you come by again tomorrow evening?” His eyes flick to the blonde beside you. “Less chance of any more accidents.” Steve winks at you, and you stammer out a yes. “Perfect. Lookin’ forward to it, doll.”

—

This time, security escorts you into the building, your last two cupcakes clutched against your chest. The same blonde is out there again, and she glares daggers at your back as the black paneled doors close behind you. Steve is waiting for you in the lobby.

“You made it,” he says, waving. “Good.”

Stiffly, you hold out the container. “This is, um. For you.” He takes it, and you tuck a strand of hair behind your ear nervously. “I just. I didn’t get to say thank you, that time. I know you probably don’t even remember, but—”

“Thirty fourth street.” He says, softly. You don’t realize he’s talking to you at first, until his eyes find yours. “Right? That’s where you were.” Your heart is pounding so loud you’re sure he can hear it. “I remember you.”

You swallow thickly. “O-oh.”

“Why don’t you come up? I can’t eat both of these by myself.” He says, wiggling the container a little. The delicately frosted roses inside are some of your best work, it had been a particular blow to see them get destroyed yesterday.

“I, I shouldn’t, I—”

“Nonsense. Please, I insist. I won’t consider myself properly thanked unless you eat one of these amazing looking cupcakes with me. Please.”

You hedge for a moment longer before nodding. “Alright. It’s just… I eat too many of them anyway,” you joke, trying to ease the tension. He smiles, heading for the elevators. His room is high up, on a floor that makes you dizzy when you look out of the window and down to the street. It’s more like an apartment than a room, and you wonder dryly if Tony Stark is a decent landlord.

Steve steers you over to the kitchen, seating you at the island. “Anything to drink?”

“Water, please.”

“I’ve got… sparkling? I think Tony stocks this stuff,” he mutters, and you laugh.

“I’ll take one off your hands.”

You fiddle with your phone as he pours it into a glass, and slides it across the counter to you. With barely concealed anticipation, you watch him open up the container, and remove the blue rose cupcake from its wrapping. You take a sip of the water, immediately regretting it as the bubbles spark and burn against your throat.

“You like to bake, doll?”

“I had my own bakery,” you say, chasing a few stray droplets of water from your lips. “You know, before.”

“I’m sure your boyfriend is very proud of your success.”

Your face goes hot. “I, um, I don’t—”

“No? I find that hard to believe.” His gaze feels heavy as it rests on you. “You’re so sweet.” He takes a bite, and the resounding moan makes you want to squirm in your seat. “That’s amazing. Knew it would be,” he wipes a dot of frosting from his cheek, and you take another big swallow of your water. “You know, out of all the people I saved, you’re the only one to come and thank me personally?”

You blink slowly at him, processing the words. You don’t know why it takes you a moment longer than it should.

“N-no? That’s terrible.” The words feel clumsy in your mouth, like there are too many syllables in them.

“Oh yes. You know, I remembered you,” he reaches across the counter to touch your arm, and his hand lingers. “Sweet, soft,” his voice drops lower. “Alone.”

Your stomach lurches, and the room tilts as you try to scramble away from him. The floor—how did you end up on the floor?—is cold beneath your clammy palms as Steve comes around the island.

“You’re sweet on me, doll, admit it. I don’t mind,” he says, dropping to a squat in front of you. Steve licks the rest of the icing from his fingers, taking his time with each. “Because I think I’m sweet on you, too.”

𝐡𝐨𝐠𝐰𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐬 𝐝𝐫 𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐦𝐞

name: aisha leblanc

house: slytherin

circle of friends: liz, lina (cr friends), pansy, blaise, mattheo, theo & enzo and @gaiaexploreslife <33

aisha leblanc core

so in this dr my circle is mostly slytherins, except lina she’s a hufflepuff i scripted in but my other friends are the weasley twins & tom riddle (i scripted him as mattheo’s brother) and i also scripted in that voldy never existed / killed in his era.

little things about me in this dr;

i have an american accent but i speak french, indonesian, korean, russian & spanish (polyglot bcs my mom is literally immortal) i however, am not immortal bcs i’m half wizard. i am a half blood

i’m at the top of my class bcs either here or in any of my drs i will always be an academic weapon (i luv academic validation) my fav subjects are astronomy & charms but my top marks are from DADA & latin, i am good at other subjects as well except herbology (i can’t keep anything alive under my supervision for more than 2 hours)

my background: i started in hogwarts for year 1- 2 and transferred to ilvermorny for third year for family purposes, in there i was in the thunderbird house and that’s when i started my niche (either professionally skate or professionally play chess) i will be transferring back to hogwarts in year 4 !

my family’s heritage is french from the dad side and my mother’s an eternal (mcu overlap) idk i just really like their power. therefore i can practice wandless magic easily, my powers are also more intuitive than an average wizard. i’m still southeast asian in this dr, and my family is known for a long line of intelligent wizards and warriors (eternals) they either got ravenclaw or slytherins. oh i also forgot, my parents are both dead LMAO but i have an older brother

for peace purposes i scripted out the whole doomsday plot of the eternals lol

also i didn’t script any s/o’s or didn’t permanently script my friend group. i want to see where it goes with people in that dr. but i have a few people i don’t mind dating and or befriending;

i don’t mind to be friends with the golden trio but i am older than them so didn’t script it bcs what if they’re annoying yk,

my potential s/o’s are lorenzo, tom, cedric or any other hot side characters lawllll

i did script i was cedric’s date to the yule ball, (can you guess how i’m an attention whore?) but i don’t want a simple friends to lovers arc so idk how that will go i might see soon (god please)

i’m also in a dilemma between making my niche a figure skater, pro pianist or violinist tbh or maybe a pro chess player. maybe i’ll make a few more hp drs for each niche (or i’ll just be all of them in one bcs im crazy like that)

my dr self personality is pretty similar to my cr self, sarcastic, witty, ambiverted kind of more of an introvert, kind of chaotic (adhd) and art enjoyer (poetry, books, music, ice skating) i also am a gymnast in my cr, i’m contemplating whether to also script that in or would it look weird bcs i already do like a ton of things there. other stuff about my personality is extremely similar to my cr so unless asked i wouldn’t disclose lol

my dr self is an animagus! she is a black cat with yellow eyes, she is also an occlumence!

as for the triwizard, i didn’t script that harry became a champion bcs i erased the plot, so it would only be cedric for hogwarts. i didn’t even think to go myself bcs shit is scary. id rather watch those dragons burn ced’s ass than myself.

tbh i made this reality not only exclusively to date (i desperately want to get fucked) but also to just be a badass academic weapon and be hot and miserable in a dark academia way.

pray for me to succeed going there soon pls

Tragic Ending

To be honest I always thought I'd have a tragic ending, and still do.

Never thought I'd have that good ending and I guess that's why I feel obsessed with the idea of a "Tragic ending" whenever I make films.

The idea that no matter the importance of the character from side to main that they should have a tragic ending the same way I believe I'll have one. Something about that sadness just makes a good story to me.

For example, If I get an Oscar I feel like I'll become a drug addict (sorry this is a little crazy) or just become mentally unstable because to have such a large platform I feel like you have to have something with you. When I do graduate from high school and start making active pushes onto my film maker dream I joke that "I'll end up in *big city* homeless with a dog and shopping cart." Because I don't know how possible it will be for me to become that film maker and creative that I want to be.

I also think that a tragic ending is what MAKES good story telling to me, you grow with a character from the start to the end through the good and the bad and then for all of that to be for nothing is so gut wrenching to me.

I had this idea for a short or feature about two teens that fall in love in the 70's called "Love Hotline" I wrote that with the idea of them breaking up in the end anyways because during that time I always thought if I got into a relationship it wouldn't work.

(I'm currently in one right now and I love her so much and that's why I'm lowkey thinking of changing that script if I ever go back to working on it because she has showed me that not everything has to have that tragic ending and I truly feel as though she is my person and that I do love her a lot, I know we're both kids and that I could be getting ahead of myself (Tbh a lie I don't think that I love her so much and if we do end then all my shit will have a tragic ending and I'll never love again) but I want to spend my life with her so bad)

I just don't see a good ending for me I guess, I don't know why but it's so strong in my head that my ending to my life or whatever will be tragic. I don't think it's a bad thing or that I'm sad about it or that I'm PRAYING that it's a tragic ending (I'm not suicidal btw I'm fine) but that just some how I feel either I reach my dreams then it ends badly, or I never make it and spend my life always trying to chase that dream.

I guess that's why I'm obsessed with this idea of a "Tragic ending" in my work, whether it be short films, writings, poems, or drawings / art this idea of a "Tragic ending" is one that is strong in my mind.

Thank you for reading this is my first little blog post type thing and I hope to make more, I never really got tumblr before but I'm a little bit of a frank ocean fixation and he got me on here lol.

George Anon here! Thanks for replying! I loved your answer and you brought up so many good things. I also meant to say that I was not expecting George to be this paramour of ethical decisions or anything like that, but the way he was written makes him look "weak" because it felt like he couldn't do anything on his own or come up with ideas/things on his own most of the time. He remained whiny through the entire thing and that's why I say it feels like he had no growth. The script didn't give him the same ammunition as everybody else, which I know is intentional but it remained like that in all episodes? I don't know if I'm making sense. And characters like Timmy and Luke, as much as people hate the second one, had some relatable qualities (notice how I said relatable not good, lol) that in a way made you root a bit for them so there was impact when something threatened them, but George... Had none. Of course, as an actor, I know Nick had to perform things he's never done before and learn certain skills so it must have been fantastic for him. As a character itself? For your reasons I mentioned, it's one that could've been better.

oooh thank you for the follow up on this conversation. I didn't entirely get what you meant first and you also bring some interesting points.

I 100% agree with you on George being the product of people with their own agenda influencing him and it is hard to know what he really wanted as himself at least for the part of his life when we see on screen.

I guess it's at this point we should have a discussion about what makes a being what they are, about nature vs nurture and it is hint in the show, with George being what Mary made of him. I guess one could argue that it could be the interest of the character itself, and to show how important the place of a favourite was in the life of a royal court and how someone in this position was the constant target of courting and attacks, gifts and traps, most of the time wrapped in the same paper. But you do make a lot of sense in a way that George is more interesting by the things happening to him than by his qualities and faults.

I think it is part because of the writing, part because of what we know of real George himself. They erase some of the things that could have made him more relatable. What comes to mind first for me is his love for arts and his loyalty and his yearning for pretty, fancy things. And, even if I sound like a broken record, the show doesn't show how much James and George loved each other for me. I guess many people watching the show aren't sure if George really loved James or if he was mostly there for power and for the position when there is very little doubt for me. When it is the very reason why the kingdom did go south during George time. Because James loved him so much he gave everything to a man who had no competence to rule and prayed his son to do the same after his death.

But for a long time, George was this man with no real political mind, no agenda known and who was willing to go with the flow and follow than lead himself. Maybe they should have shown a bit of what he becomes after the king's death, even if we see a bit of what this looked like during the trip in Spain and afterwards. It's not pretty but I guess it's not worst than what Charles would have done/did himself? I'm not sure, but what's sure is there was already a lot of incompetent white men in position of power not doing much while patting each other back.

I still think it was an interesting character to play for Nick, and not because of the riding/dancing/frenching/whatever skills. There was still a lot to play with for him as an actor and a lot of emotions to portray on his face -- submission, pride, tenderness, etc. He was a subtle work this Georgie boy, even if he wasn't for everyone and if his stature was relative.

Not so sure if all of my rambling are adding relevant points to the conversation but my point is, George not being that interesting as a person is also part of what makes him interesting for me as a character.

Uncomplicating the Law

Learning about states and relearning the law:

warning: this little rant may come off as “tough love” depending on your sensitivity level🤷🏽‍♀️

I’ve been on loa tumblr for a while now. I had like 2 blogs before and deleted them. In that time I’ve been up here I’ve seen just about all kinds of “advice”. I put advice in quotes because let’s be real, a lot of the advice up here is bs. Its just people wanting to fulfill their deepest desires of being popular so they spread bs, like what? let’s keep it a buck.

People have complicated the law so bad, its insane. And I am guilty of that. From wasting a whole year of my life attempting to get into the void to affirming & persisting and seeing minimal results, etc etc. I’ve disrupted my sleep cycle, screwed up my mental health (I’m good now), missed out on life, and so much more hoping, wishing, & praying for results.

Then I came to understand states. I would read and read and read Neville and never understood what the hell he was saying so I paid states dust. But it took clarification via twitter accounts (honestly it was @krystalkaeya who first made states so easy and understandable. Love them sm💕), watching a shit ton of EdArt and Manifesting w/ Kim vids for me to be like “DAMN IT! THAT’S ALL I HAVE TO DO?”

I’m telling y’all, I still can’t believe I let THAT much time pass without me getting the life I desire and deserve. I literally took something so simple as manifesting and made it into this whole challenge, this battle. Crying myself to sleep at night, wondering why the hell I can’t live my dream life, get the money, the man, the body, etc. It’s because I made it more difficult than it needed to be. But I am no longer living in regret🥳.

I still remember hearing Dylan James say “Manifesting is NOT a trying process.”

Stop TRYING. Stop COMPLICATING this shit. Manifestation is supposed to be fun! It’s supposed to be easy.

And tbh now as I practice this way of manifesting, I still find myself wanting to do shit. Wanting to mindlessly affirm, script, use subs but I know it’s not really necessary. It’s really all a learning process yall.

I’m not telling anyone what to do but if you aren’t getting results yet (because tbh it shouldn’t take that long) it may be time to pause, re-evaluate, and try something else aka states lol.

NCIS Reaction: High Seas

Wench (@scripted-downfall) reacts [with (maybe) occasional asides by Jezebel (@typicalopposite)]

Oh god. MEN

“Wandered off" code for dying, more like [☠️☠️☠️☠️ Wandered off to the next life]

Ooh, more pretty boat work

THE PHONE WORKS AGAIN

"Gibbs. Talk." Buddy. That's. "Make your voice a mail"-coded.

"On the Enterprise?!?!" DAMN. Didn't realize NCIS extends to space. Er, the final frontier.

Why does this look like the Marvel helicarrier thing

I see that everyone likes Burley to some degree

NOT DUCKY BEING PETTY WITH THE CRICKET BALL

Kate being over-confident again. I pray that she gets lost now. [☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️ Yep I’m already lost ☠️☠️]

Oof, poor Tony. "Gibbs must have told you about me?" "No, actually, Abby mentioned it in passing." "Oh." "Just assigned?" "Two years." "Huh."

We're back to being mean to Tony again. Kicking him out of the room is so mean :(

aksfdj am I in the wrong episode; that mail carrier was in the other episode and there was a body in it alksdjf

[She lost] WHAT DID I SAYYYY

"Any idea who provided the meth?" Walter White, duh [☠️☠️☠️]

[You don’t sound like you’re trying to help out, Gibbs ☠️]

Not Kate still being lost. Oh, right place, finally! [Seems like she’s just tryin to see some nakey men] Yer not wrong. She went to the men's room and then to the barracks, where she wasn't supposed to be.

"Fourth-generation Navy" Damn. I'd watch out for them, then, if they think he shamed their name.

"Well, I've got news for you; he did" Madam, you don't know this. The evidence has not proven this. Don't make a theory before you have proof, and don't slander a man if you don't know for sure. (aka: Kate is aggravating me again)

Wait, I know this dude. [Tony? 😂 me too. Kidding. Wait, he does look familiar.] I know him from The Glades... And he was in a Burn Notice, a Criminal Minds... and some of Big Sky, and I haven't seen those yet, but it’s still interesting to know

"They gotta be ready. Tomorrow, it might not be search-and-rescue" Bravo, dude

"Still, don't you ever lay off, give your men a break?' The implications of Tony asking this given what I've said about Gibbs, though.

He gonna die btw

Dammit, he didn’t die (That. Sounded harsh. I meant “dammit, my prediction was wrong.”)

[Tony jealous] Okay, but you don't see anything unfair about Gibbs showering praise on Stanley compared to how he treats Tony? [No I agree lol Is this the one where he actually praises Tony 🤔] He better

"Had your eyes glued to some little-" Do go on. [☠️☠️☠️ Gibbs, you dog]

Kate’s lost!!!! [Kate’s lost ☠️] Finally getting a comeuppance for her arrogance [Poor guys like, why so angry smol lady?] Dark Angel: A Summary

[You watch 👀 Nooo. You watching them beat it]

"Lost?" "No." Yeah, right. "It's going fine" False. "It was confusing at first" It still is, wdym. Kate, just ‘fess up. 😂😂😂😂

Y'all, the chances this is them actually taking the drugs are not. likely.

Y'all. You have no evidence of any of this. And why would two separate people give themselves so much they almost die? Unless they're using the same batch and it's contaminated or something, this makes no sense.

[Oh nooooo he dyin] "He dead" more like [Oooof]

Maybe I'm naive but I don't buy that they did it themselves.

[Ahh you and Kate agree] Ooh, I wanna speak about this. I’m finishing this scene before midpoint reaction time. [Ok lol I do think this is the one he praises Tony in. It’s a Gibbs praise. But yeah ☠️😂]

– – –

Midpoint reaction time!

Okay, so. Kate started out annoying me with her "I can navigate just fine, hmph!" routine, but she's gotten better. Her good humor about the getting-lost thing with Tony was endearingly wry, and I appreciate it. Also, she did try to... not commiserate, and console is strong, but... idk, help?

Which brings me to Gibbs, who just. This is aggravating me. I understand that you've said there's a backstory I don't know about. Sure, fine. Whatever. I know that he and Stanley worked together before, and that was a different time. Yeah. Okay. I follow. But he's still being an asshole. And if he's capable of not being an asshole, then it's all the worse that he is being an asshole. And I've never been one of those people who thinks "being really harsh on someone pushes them to succeed in a way that kindness or geniality won't" because, frankly, that's stupid. I've worked in both environments over the years, and yeah, I managed to work decently well in both, but I worked better in an environment where, sure, I was expected to do well and held to that standard (and chastised if I didn't), but also got some kind of positive feedback too. Tough love is great and all, but it's gotta be tough love, not just tough.

Gibbs is clearly capable of maintaining his standards while still praising the recipient — I point to the banter session with Stanley about "this is all you could find?" "At least I don't contaminate evidence while bagging-and-tagging it" — so I refuse to accept that he can't do it with Tony. Hell, he even sprinkles praise into his conversations with Kate. And Abby. (Not really with Ducky yet, but idk if I'd expect that; they seem more like equals, tbh, than a supervisor and a supervisee.)

And, whatever Kate says, I've yet to see a reason that the thing between Stan and Gibbs is substantially different from Tony and Gibbs. (One may develop, but I haven't seen/noticed it yet.) Instead, it feels like a blatant double-standard, and a bit of a shove-it-in-Tony's-face situation. Which might be iffy writing, or might be the intent, idk. [The lack of a difference is likely a writing flaw again. You don’t see it but your suppose to just accept it’s there] DAMMIT, WRITERS, I CAN’T READ YOUR FREAKING MINDS. SHOW, DON’T TELL IS A BASIC PRINCIPLE OF STORYTELLING. Someone skipped the lore dump to get ahead to “solving the problem,” I see. (Callback to this post on main.)

[Which this is all fair. I get why you’re frustrated and when I first watched it kinda frustrated me too. But again I watch it and take it as the haha Tony’s jealous I think it’s meant to be. And not the deeper meaning that’s really fucked up to Tony.] Yeah. I get there are different ways of viewing it, and, again, intellectually, I understand what they were going for. But it missed the mark, in my opinion, because it's... idk. I'm always bothered by mean humor that, I feel, kinda cuts to the core more than it ought. "The Curious Case of Dean Winchester" in SPN? Pissed me the fuck off.

[And see I thought the curious case was hilarious the first time I watched it.] Oh, god, no, I hated it. So much. All the jokes at the fact that he'd literally lost so much — in a sacrifice for Bobby — that he'd come to rely on? The alleged "humor" of him suddenly not being able to do stuff because he's 80 freaking years old, and Sam (in all of his youthful energy) finding it so funny? Bobby being all mocking about "oh, you're such a wuss for not dealing with conditions that popped into your system without any warning; I've managed to deal with that stuff for years (when it happened gradually and came about naturally due to aging and not me betting away my life to save my crotchety-ass father figure). How dare this be a readjustment!!?!?" [😂😂😂 again all fair!] And the added injustice… The reason Bobby's more crotchety than normal? Because he had lost something that was core to his personality, all at once, with zero warning, and had lost the ability to do as much physically as a result. The "humor" is at best so hypocritical, and muchhhhh more blatantly (to me), so mean-spirited that I just. God, that episode turns my stomach. I like the witch doing it, and I like some elements, but I'm never watching that again if I can help it.

Anyway... this isn't a SPN reaction, so back to NCIS :) [😂😂😂] Gibbs just. Bothers me. Even ifffff it's intended well. Which I kinda doubt. It's not cool. And I guarantee that it's not a coincidence that, in the same episode, he was asking the chief if he ever gave his men a break. The writers might be trying to tell-not-show that Gibbs and Tony actually have a decent relationship, and it's a different decent relationship from Gibbs and Stan, but they're show-not-telling that they don't. And that Gibbs might be fine with it, but Tony's clearly not feeling great about it. [Fair. And that’s making me sound like a broken record ☠️ but I do get it]

– – –

I’m an idiot, btw. [☠️☠️☠️ you’re not but go on] I was sitting here through that entire midpoint reaction thinking that Kate had some prior knowledge about Gibbs relationship with Stan, right? But she just joined. She didn’t, at all. [☠️☠️☠️] She just joined. More recently than Tony alfjkdslkasdjfq [☠️☠️☠️]

Also, I'm sorry, but talking to the bodies is such a lonely-person-needing-company move. Which is only making the Gibbs-constantly-interrupts-and/or-dismisses-Ducky's-attempts-to-talk even more annoying. Like, he hasn't done that this episode (to my recollection), but in general. I've talked about it in the past.

Also, Gibbs bringing Stan his sandwich order; damn, but they're really shoving this down our throat, aren't they. Literally. [😂😂😂😂 very true!]

Dude, I'm actually starting to like Kate more than Gibbs. [☠️☠️☠️] This is shocking.

Once again; Stan gets teased, but it’s just. Not the same.

Wait, is Reyes the guy we were talking about earlier? [I think so] Because I don’t want him to be the bad guy asldfj [I also don’t think so 😉] Good!

Kate, that was answered already. I guess he was talking to Tony, but still.

Oof, talk about a harsh workplace environment

DUDE. THIS (using an IV bag of air to induce an embolism) IS HOW JARVIS KILLS HIMSELF IN PUPPET MASTERS; I LOVE THAT FILM

[Plot twist: Ducky’s the murderer.] sldkfjlsjk that’s basically how Jarvis acted in Puppet Masters [“YOURE SUPPOSED TO BE DEAD” HORRIBLE ACTING MR (idk his name)]

Wait, what? I’m sorry, false. Many types of people know that air + blood = death. I knew that [☠️☠️☠️] Okay, fine, I’m in medicine: my sister knows that (mathematician). [I knew that] There we go! [I knew it from the omen… but I knew it] I’m officially making the prediction that Wilkes committed suicide.

DUDE IT LOOKS LIKE THEY’RE GOING THAT DIRECTION. JUST SAYING: IF WILKES DID IT HIMSELF I CLAIM THE PREDICTION VICTORY

I CALLED IT. HAH!!!

Poor Abby alsdjf [☠️☠️☠️ What do you want me to do with all this pee]

Tell me they race. [I think so] THEY’RE RACING

I’m gonna cry if Kate wins

Noooooooo. I called it but nooooo. [☠️☠️☠️☠️]

Dude, I feel like NCIS is pulling these plots outta nowhere. I’m sorry but. Why. I keep asking. Why would they take that much without being more careful.

[You love those men… sir]

I’m pinning my hopes on them not having taken the drugs knowingly btw. I stake my prediction reputation on this.

Jesus fuck, leave Tony alone [I think Kate was trying to help ☠️ just didn’t work] I. Don’t think so. But maybe. Out of curiosity, do we ever find out about why he kept transferring? [I think so 🤔🤔🤔]

If they’re not being slipped it, I’m gonna be mad. Because I repeat. Unless the batch were contaminated. The motivation makes no sense. They’re not explaining why they’re suddenly taking so much that it’s not hidden anymore.

HAH! They didn’t know they were taking meth! I will accept this! AND IT FITS MY THEY-DIDN’T-KNOW-THEY-WERE-INGESTING-IT THEORY! (My prediction reputation is safe!) I win

And I guess the overdoses — or, rather, the now-observed symptoms — were because he didn’t tell them what it was and they were addicted, so they kept taking them without being concerned with adverse effects? One of the few times they don’t aggressively shove the explanation at us and it’s the one time that would be useful. [☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️]

I’m watching at an awkward angle, but it looked like he was smirking alsdkfj

[Maybe it is Reyes] Naw, really? :) [I could have swore it wasn’t tho ☠️☠️☠️]

I hope this dude isn’t actually sick or anything; I hope that’s a con. I suspect it is, but I very much hope so.

Lovely; awesome; very happy now. Glad he’s not seriously sick

Ooh, and Reyes took that pretty damn well, ngl. [Right!?]

Okay, they’re not wrong about Reyes betraying trust, but it does bear mentioning that Wilkes’ family was kinda. Um. Complicit. In him dying. Since his dad kinda pushed him to it.

“You gonna go getting all huggy on me?” = “No chick flick moments”

That. [Hm.] If that’s your version of Gibbs giving praise. I question. [Must be a different episode] alksdjfl;aksjdf;lakjsdf [Cause there is one where someone starts bad mouthing Tony. And it’s a similar situation. But Gibbs goes off. And Tony’s like 👁👄👁 And it ends with like a you like me your really like me moment and Gibbs is like.. now I don’t.] Well, I look forward to it, I suppose. I still maintain, though, that verbal communication is better than assuming that he’d go “oh, look, he deigned to say my name; woot”

Thus does it end!

– – –

Anyway… I don’t have that much to add, really. Decent episode, though I don’t know how to feel about the writing. I guess Stan talking to Tony about Gibbs default setting was good, but I’m not sure it makes much sense. Unless the point is he just. Likes Kate that much that he didn’t do the whole “call by the wrong name” thing? Also, we have no proof that Tony didn’t get called a different name than his actual one on his first days. So this is really illogical, tbh. I feel like it was crammed in at the end to excuse the rest without actually. you know. excusing the rest.

I liked Kate this episode (with the exception of her little “well, he did dishonor the Navy” thing at the beginning) Her banter with Tony — and even, *sigh*, the fact that she won the race — was well done. Ducky was in it a criminally short amount of time; same with Abby

idk. Decent episode, but it’s got some iffy bits. And Gibbs annoyed me, obviously, as I’m sure you’re shocked to hear.

[Again, it’s likely that stuff was just to be assumed. Which I agree is dumb.] LKSAJDF MA’AM I DO NOT DO WELL WITH ILLOGIC. WE’RE GONNA HAVE THIS CONVERSATION SO MANY TIMES [Well ma’am idk what to tell you ☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️] “just cry” [☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️]

That’s all, folks :)

oh I've seen several people say that the dialogues look like the meta era. I prayed for their souls when the Flynn fans jumped on them lol. Honestly, the dialogues seem normal to me at the moment, nothing exceptional... although on Twitter they say that it is the best thing they have read lol

I mean... they're fine, so far. Sonic is jokey and quips around, but not too much. The best improvement I've seen is that Sonic talks to Amy for a minute or so. On the other hand, Eggman praises the cyberspace as something not even he could pull off and even notes to not say that around others :^) the rodent like might seem like a nitpick, but if you want to insert callbacks to look like you're a long time fan, I expect you to actually know what you're referencing lmao.

But it's not the awful mess that is the IDW script, and that's all I asked for. So far. There's still time to be surprised.

But yeah, it's hilarious to me how people praised lines like "Careful? Where the fun in that?", being like "ah yes this is something Sonic would say! Finally, some good Sonic!", as if he didn't talk like that in Colors and Generations too :) ah, the bias...

@unpossession prayed:

Dear Lillie,

I’m sorry it’s taken me this long to write you! I’ve been going through a bit of personal trouble at the moment and it’s been hard to muster up the nerve to write anything at all — but I’m getting better now, and wanted to drop you a line to say that I found you completely charming when we met, and to encourage you to keep writing, even if sometimes it feels hopeless or embarrassing or strange. Better to have it all out on the page than festering inside, anyway.

I’d like to invite you and two guests of your choosing to an event my cousin is hosting this weekend at the Greek Theatre! He’s a film score composer and this event is sort of one big mixer-slash-showcase for him to network with people in the industry since he’s new in town, and I’d love for you to come! There’ll be music, and then an afterparty where I’ll introduce you to as many people as I know, I thought this would be a great opportunity to make come useful connections for when you want to send a script out!

Please, please, please say you’ll come! And bring whoever you like, just send me a text with details on who and I’ll make sure their names are on the list.

Lots of love,

Willow!!! Xx

Initially, Lillie didn’t expect to get a response when they traded numbers in that cozy cafe booth. In no way had it gone forgotten, quite the contrary — Lillie had the little slip of napkin with Willow’s number pinned to the mirror in her bedroom, hoping one day she would work up the courage to take the first step — but everything has been so crazy since then. Tabby has clearly chosen Zero over her, and her boyfriend Joshua is too busy with his influencer gigs to come visit. It’s been so terribly lonely, so the notification on her phone sparks a certain anxious excitement.

[ TO : willow ! ✍️📖 ✉️ lillie is typing . . . ]

[ txt ] hey willow, it’s so good to hear from you! please don’t worry about it, i figured you were just busy and if i’m honest i was just a little too shy to take the first step. silly, i know! even though i met you and know you’re very nice, i still get all tongue tied because you’re just SO cool! [ txt ] as for the event — are you sure? that seems like such a big deal and i don’t want to be imposing or anything!! [ txt ] i guess i’m always a little worried i’m gonna mess those kinda things up lol [ txt ] actually! you know what! yeah! i’ll go! [ txt ] but i don’t think i have anyone to bring so it will just be me :’)

#☽ answered. ☾#unpossession #☽ lillie — in character. ☾#SORRY THIS TOOK SO LONG 😭😭😭😭😭

Simulacra Salvationist Filene Taylor Reporting for Duty

Hi there, Everybody,

My name is Filene, and it’s time for the world to have drastic, healing actions, that can inspire and awaken us all. So today is the day I announce my five-pronged strike on the inanimate nations that are attacking animate beings.

The attacks upon Roe vs. Wade, and the American right to privacy, have echoes that afflict everybody with a private life, including all non-cisheteronormative people folk and their families.

Five major goals are of my life at this moment.

1. My adult Queer art. This means NotStung, and Bedtricks. NotStung has always been an attempt to bring about a saved Earth, and a trust to the families involved. A Queer Adult Art company, publishing art, livestreams, and literature of all kinds. “Bedtricks” aka. my furry sona and universe. I figure me just drawing what I draw or think is cool can be good if you are interested specifically in the angles I pick. Only consenting adults, please.

2. SansIsSleeping. Sans Is Sleeping is an attempt to end annihilationists and dominionists, who are attempting to do the same thing done by the Christian guerilla invaders of ancient Europe, who appropriated and hid as the same Muslim citizens, insidiously taking over the kingdom. We’re not gonna have the clock reset or the game end. A charity organization, though I am still honing our cause, aside from a vigil for those mourning. Includes SlumbererSentinels as an entertainment stream. An attempt to entertain with UNDERTALE broadcasts, as a speedrunning community. Maybe one day there will be other runs that involve saving a world in other games where folk are sleeping. I don’t know, lol.

3. VANtics. An attempt to allow a nation of nationless people due to the fact they are creating and subjecting themselves to the scripts of other nations and nations they build. What nations? Inanimate nations, creations of art, rules, and ideologies. Inspired by the non-consentual airing of “normative” commercials, internationally.

4. My legal battles against discrimination I’ve received as a member of many different nations.

5. SWDVCUCCoin. also known as “CUC” coin at this stage. It’s a Sex Worker Domestic Violence Credit Union Charity cryptocurrency. That’s right. Sex Workers, for Domestic Violence, forming a currency to fund victims of Domestic Violence, internationally. It’s a big ask.

This is all beside my human, familial, animate obligations. :)

All this is to save the omniverse, my family, our universe, our Earth, and all Creation, under my God, all Gods, and my Creatrix.

I pray I have the time, I pray you all find me.

Let’s take this one day at a time.

Do you think the pilot for Jensen’s prequel has been ordered? With the way Jared was talking, it seems like his has already been ordered and Jensen wouldn’t know until January (basically now) Also I don’t see why it’s weird that Jensen did a birthday post for dean. Is it because he never made one before? I haven’t been in the fandom that long, so I don’t really know, but I saw a couple saying it could allude to where his prequel is right now. Then again people are saying this podcast was shot sometime last year, not sure when, maybe December, so his prequel could’ve already had been ordered for a pilot. But I’m kinda confused on how his prequel was supposed to be farther along, according to AAs, but Jared’s prequel had been in the works since January 2021 and the Ackles had been sitting on their prequel since 2020, so how come Jared’s is actually farther than theirs. I get they have to do major retconning to even make their prequel work and pray for a miracle to actually get people interested in it, but still, they had this idea months before Jared’s prequel started developing.

Good questions anon! I think there's a lot of confusion out there regarding the timelines of the different projects, (which is understandable because with the pandemic, it seems like the last 2 1/2 years are all just jumbled together), so I hope you'll bear with me as I put together what we know about both prequels!

SPN Prequel: The Winchesters

Oct. 2020 - The Ackles form a new production company, Chaos Machine Productions.

Mar. 2021 - During the SPN Creation Entertainment Virtual Panel Jensen mentions having a project in the works with a writer from SPN.

June 2021 - Chaos Machine Productions announces The Winchesters. A prequel featuring John and Mary, with Dean narrating their lives. A script commitment is listed (meaning they have a writer, Robbie Thompson, who's promised to write a script for the prequel).

Sept. 2021 - Jensen records the Inside of You podcast with Michael Rosenbaum and mentions that the network and studio had signed off on the prequel back in June 2021, hence the announcement.

Dec. 2021 - The SPN Then and Now podcast is recorded at Nashcon where Jensen mentions the script is with the studio and he's waiting for more information in Jan. 2022.

Jan. 2022 - The SPN Then and Now podcast airs.

Walker Prequel: Independence

Jan. 2021 - Walker airs it's first episode.

Feb. 2021 - Walker obtains a second season renewal.

Dec. 2021 - The SPN Then and Now podcast is recorded at Nashcon where Jared mentions the Walker: Independence prequel had been in the works since before Walker aired (so around Jan. 2021). He indicates that they hope to start filming in Jan. 2022.

Dec. 2021 - It's announced that the CW has ordered a prequel spin-off series for Walker called Walker: Independence. (Executive Produced by Jared).

Jan. 2022 - The SPN Then and Now podcast airs.

Both Prequels I'm going to refer you to lol-jackles post regarding the future of these prequels: x

So... to answer your question anon, there's no indication that the Ackles had the Winchesters idea before the Walker: Independence idea. They could have, but there was no work on it until around June and the time of the announcement. And yes, they'll either have to walk a very fine line between canon, or start doing ret-cons.

RE: JIKOOK RED FLAGS 2021

Red flags huh... Kindly hold for me while I transfer your complaints to the Jikook script development team in South Korea. Lol

Seems the fanservice is not fanservicing with the fans and customers.

Bang PD must be doing a shitty job with these subpar edited scripts apparently.

Red flags in Jungkook's behavior towards Jimin... hmmm.

Unable to justify Jungkook's acts...

What the fuxk does that even mean, justify??

Why do we have to justify his behavior? He is not before the Volturi 😫

I wish OP had pointed out some of these red flags so I could better understand their point of view and share my thoughts on them.

'Jimin deserves real friends and not fake smiles like Jungkook does.' Alright then!

Is she saying Jungkook is fake or what?

What makes him fake?

If Jungkook is fake why is OP using Tae Kook as a cautionary tale for Jikook?

Dude couldn't fake his relationship and friendship with Tae in Tae Kook, couldn't keep the fan service and public facade of their relationship going even though I'm sure everyone would have preferred that especially the company and their shippers and yet somehow he is keeping up pretenses in Jikook? Is he fake in his other ships too or is it just in Jikook??

This argument is a slight variation of the Jikook is fanservice but every other ship in BTS is real narrative running loose in the fandom. Jk is real in every other ship but when it comes to Jimin he is faking it with him.

I think the company you keep says more about who you are than the people you surround yourself with. I hope OP gets that much.

People who often keep fake friends and hold on to superficial connections is as a consequence of low self esteem and lack of self love.

If Jungkook really is fake and Jimin still keeps him around the way he does then Jimin needs to love himself. For real.

Jimin used to be that guy and he's addressed this several times in interviews and in conversations. He was that guy with low self esteem who didn't love himself. He just said recently that he once cried infront of his parents because he felt people only wanted to be friends with him when they want something from him.

For a while now, since October last year, he's been talking a lot about fake friends, friends who only use him or befriend him with an agenda, aren't consistent in his life and how he has come to the realization the members of BTS are his only true friends.

I'd assume such revelations come with internal growth or at least flows from it. He is not that same insecure boy anymore.

I think if Jungkook really was such said fake friend we would be seeing a change in JM's attitude towards him and not the other way round.

Truth is, they've both changed in subtle ways. They've both grown and matured a lot. I used to think Jungkook was catching up to Jimin but they are on different growth paths it seems. Jimin has had a lot of work to do on himself as much as JK has.

Seems to me OP just has a problem with Jungkook. Can't help her with that.

Either that or they are just disguising hate and insecurities as legitimate concerns and worry for Park Jimin.

Rather than worry about Jungkook or hate him, I think they should worry about Jimin and pray for him to grow, learn and evolve- he can make better decisions like choosing the right friends or in this case boyfriend if he loves himself.

Personally, I think Jungkook is a good person. I think he is one of the realest dudes out there. Down to earth. Wants what he wants. Quirky. Funny. Assertive.

Jimin has his charms too.

They work well together.

When it comes to JK I think Jimin gat this. Jimin is a big guy. He literally got this man down on his knees begging soaking wet in the rain asking for him to take him back after a fight- I think he's good. He can handle himself and he can handle his boyfriend.

Thanks for the concern but you got nothing to worry about. Jikook are in safe hands with each other.

And I hope by all these red flags talk OP is not talking about the hug in Run, JK complaining about the other teams having Jin and Hobi on their team or him hitting JM with the ping pong balls in the coming Run aired days earlier on Korean television.

If that's the case then I sure hope s/he had the same energy when JK was tryna hug JM and JM was pushing him away in the blackswan behind scenes shoot- thank God Jungkook didn't back down. THANK GOD!

I hope they had the same energy when JK reached out to fist bump JM in the same run episode and JM didn't respond. I hope they had the same energy when JM on several occasions said he wanted to be teams with Tae and not JK. When he said he preferred to travel with Tae, go to Japan on a trip with Tae. When he literally had Tae drive JM away from the Kitchen when he they were cooking...

If we are gonna be anal about these things and call them red flags each time then damn Jikook never liked eachother and JM hates JK as much as JK hates JM-which I know she knows for facts it's total bonkers.

Quit playing around anon.

If sis knew at all what red flags in Tae Kook's relationship looked like or was like they wouldn't be here comparing Jikook and Tae Kook first and foremost and they wouldn't be spewing the hate in disguise they are calling concern for JM.

The only people Tae Kook in Soop came as a surprise to were the people who thought there was something between Tae Kook in the first place or those who didn't notice when things had started to go south between them. Which sometimes happens with Jokers I feel, especially when they can't tell when Jikook are not together.

I mean, unless OP is tryna say Jikook are not together or have broken up right about now. In which case, I respect their opinion but I have to humbly disagree.

In my opinion Jikook revert back to being 'friends' when they are not together and they kinda get extra nice and flirty with eachother as one or both of them would be trying to get the other back from my observations. (Don't take this as fact. Just my opinion🤓)

How is flinging a bunch of ping pong balls at your ex a way to get them back???🤣

How is implying you don't want to be teammates with an ex a way to get them back. Lmho.

I mean unless JK got his Taylor Swift on

When the wounds are fresh, they try to put up boundaries especially JK. He attaches himself to Tae, Jin or Hobi for that emotional support. In my opinion. Chilee💀

Usually you have one or two members looking out for Jk or whichever one is hurting and they try to intervene or insert themselves in between them when they notice one of them acting sneaky around the other. Cough. Jimin. Cough. Cough.

I think it's established now that Jimin can or used to fake interactions with people, keep fake friends around him, give to them, act lovingly with them even when he knew they weren't vibing with him like that. Part of that kumbaya schtick he had going on.

Makes you wonder the things he put up with in Jikook right?

Shouldn't come as a surprise if he kept it rolling with JK even if they weren't together. Dude had a habit of embellishing and glossing all over their relationship, exaggerating certain things, over expressing himself...

May be JK hasn't change changed, may be Jimin just stopped glossing over things like he used to.

May be y'all are just seeing the real dynamic of Jikook for the first time. Because to some of us, this has always been Jikook.

Their front hugs has always been awkward. I mean shut, it was a running joke in the fandom. Jk couldn't hug Jimin from the front, only from the back. He'd tense up when Jimin touched him. Couldn't look JM in the eye unless he was feeling feisty.

They've always roughhoused. Do you know how many times Jungkook scolds JM in the day?

Do you know how many times Jimin hits Jungkook in a day?

He hits JK when JK compliments other members besides him.

He hits him when Jk looks dashingly handsome and leaves him breathless.

He hits him when he is horny.

Hell sometimes he hits him for no damn reason.

'If I hit you hug me' or whatever he said there.

Jungkook does the same thing.

Did you not see him hit Jm when Jimin said he looked erotic in a photo?

Don't you hear Jimin or the members talk about Jungkook lifting them and tossing them around.

When JM says, Jungkook you so strong how do you think he came to that realization?

These are two men dating. Jimin is not a woman. Y'all don't expect Jk to treat him like he is a gal.

Just admit that you are not used to the masculinity in both of them or seeing them act like two men dating eachother. Heteronormativity is a bitch.

They are men. They are competitive. They are aggressive and you are gonna see that play out between them.

As for Tae Kook...

It's was glaringly obvious that boundaries was at the heart of their issue. Tae was doing things JK wasn't happy about and JK was equally doing things Tae was not happy with.

If you love someone show them you've changed.

Change was all JK was looking for.

These are seven boys together all day all year, living within the same space breathing down each other's necks- add all that wandering hands and touchiness culture and there were bound to be conflicts over boundaries amongst them especially as each came into their own.

You don't need a crystal ball to figure that one out.

Jungkook often talked about his boundaries and how Tae wouldn't 'respect' them every now and then. He talked about how JM respects his boundaries and would stop doing certain things he didn't like the moment he asked him to but then Tae wouldn't listen to him and keep going at it.

It's cute at first when two people interact that way, feeds shippers and all but when it becomes a pattern of behavior, a pattern of one person constantly pushing the limits of the other person's patience it's problematic.

That's what a redflag looks like.

The worst part is when their shippers started glorifying those moments of clear boundary breaches and started trivializing it like it meant nothing- not to mention them bullying anyone who so much as mentioned that that was becoming a problem in their relationship.

You couldn't so much as utter a word without being branded a Tae anti.

And no, that's not what we are doing to op💀

There is a difference between noticing and pointing out how one person's actions is affecting another member and merely expressing discontent with how one person treats another- which is what op doing in my opinion.

Jimin is not expressing any concerns over JK- not that I am aware of, and yet here OP is complaining about the way JK expresses himself with regards to JM.

Are these things she is pointing out something JM has a problem with or something she personally has a problem with?

If it's not an issue for JM why is it an issue for OP?

Tae talked about JK ignoring him behind cams- clearly he wasn't too happy about that, JM's reaction to that was telling that that remark was passive aggressive as fuck or perhaps he thought it wasn't appropriate for him to say that on camera, who knows.

If you have a problem with someone, especially someone you are bandmates with tell them. Communicate. Tae wasn't doing that.

Tae Kook were communicating. And by the way, it wasn't just Tae Kook. Vmin weren't communicating too. Same as NamHope.

How many times have Hobi said he feels awkward with RM?

Did JM not call Tae ought for not coming to him with a problem he had with him in the past?

There were moments when you could see Tae's face drop in sadness over something JK would say but then he wouldn't address it or bring it to his attention and things would fester...

Real or not, these are people and people relate with eachother based on social principles and etiquettes. Establishing boundaries being at the heart of those principles just as RM explained in their KBS interview.

For any relationship to flourish there ought to be clear cut boundaries and a conscious effort on both parts to respect and honor those boundaries.

Tae Kook weren't communicating those boundaries and when one of them did the other wouldn't respect it at all and you could tell that from the things they said and did around eachother.

Jk didn't have to say certain things Tae did that he disliked that was affecting their bond, if you had eyes and paid enough attention you could see it as clear as night and day. It was in the passive aggressive comments, the underhanded remarks, the head tilting, the babying him when clearly he wanted to be treated as a full grown ass adult.

When JHope pulled JM into his laps, dotting on him in his live and called him his baby brother or something didn't Jimin tell him he couldn't be an a man, an adult if Hobi kept treating him like that?

Did you see the recent OT7 VLive? Did you see Tae commenting on how JK is a grown man now? Acknowledging the fact? At least now he is trying and making an effort to repair their relationship by respecting and treating JK as an individual- something this anon needs to learn to do too.

Jk does not exist for a ship.

Does JM cross JK's boundaries too? HELL YES. Does he test his patients? Hell yes. If you have eyes you can see when that happens and you can see how JM and JK reacts to those moments.

And you can also see when it's serious and when it's not.

It's all the difference between when they are together and when they are not.

JM for one isn't one to go out of his way to do things to make people hate him just as Suga said.

And for JK I keep saying he is one member who puts up boundaries alot in BTS for himself and for JM and the two people that often breach those boundaries is or used to be Tae and RM. In my opinion.

RM because well he's RM. Nerdish and socially awkward. Says the wrong things sometimes, jokes falls flat- if you've seen Jin nudge him to shut up about the comments he makes on the sexuality of Jimin you'll know what I mean.

Hobi and Suga, in fact all the members except Jimin have complained about how awkward they get with RM sometimes especially Hobi which is crazy because he and RM are Chingus.

Taekook's conversation in Soop was mostly over boundaries no? - Tae asking for JK to drop formalities with him and JK insisting on being formal with him.

Forget ships for a moment, Tae and JM are two completely different people who handle situations differently.

Tae kept saying how JM is his bestfriend, and yet he couldn't even master up the courage to tell JM he had a problem with JM 'stealing' the spotlight during their performances.

He had to send it in anonymously through KKul FM during festa. How embarrassing is that? Especially for JM who is particular and sensitive about his public image!

Jimin called him out on that and asked him why he didn't come to him personally to tell him he had a problem with that- as he should.

Tae wasn't really assertive. He isn't afraid to say his mind but when it comes to his own needs and wants he hesitates to demand things for himself. He is not- was not one to put himself out there it seems.

JK takes things personal too. Together it's recipe for disaster.

JM and Jungkook have totally different dynamics. They don't work the same way.

Jimin let's a lot of things slide especially when it comes to Jk for whatever reason- If you are looking for red flags that right there is one. In my opinion of course.

If ever JM decides to assert himself as the hyung in Jikook there is gonna be a sudden and drastic shift in their dynamic.

It's just as how JK asserting himself in recent times is causing a shift not only in Jikook but in all his other ships including Tae Kook.

And in case anon isn't aware, there has been a positive shift in Jikook's dynamics since October last year not just because of Jungkook but Jimin too.

Rather than crucify Jungkook like Tuktukkers did when he was asserting himself and insisting on his boundaries, complaining that he was hurting Tae- a path that inevitably led to Soop, may be OP should pay attention to why he is changing and what needs to be improved in Jikook to solve that problem- if even it's a problem.

Jimin likes to push JK's boundaries but he knows when to stop. It's who he is in general.

For Tae... He's had some growing to do in that department. I mean there is a reason JK and BTS used to call him an Alien. He deadass tried to zip up Jin's flap in the middle of a concert- out of love might I add. Lmho.

He talked about 'JM wants to come but I think JK is stopping him.' Still yells let's not look in the camera when he notices JK and JM doing whatever eye fuckery they love to do in 2020.

That to me is very antagonistic and bound to create problems for him and Kook if Kook feels antagonized by these actions.

Two plus two is four sis.

During dynamite when Tae accidentally pulled on his shoulder when JK was holding hands with JM behind Suga didn't you see JK's reaction?

Jimin and JK has referred to him as pure and innocent. He really is. He has a good heart and don't think much about the consequences of things as RM says.

Which is the exact opposite of JK or even JM.

Every ship has a unique dynamic.

A red flag in Tae Kook looks totally different from what I'd consider a red flag in Jikook, Vmin or any other ship. And a red flag in Jikook may not be a red flag in another ship.

All these 'new' changes people out here are wailing about honestly isn't new to some of us at all. This is Jikook, stripped back and raw. Yall just arent used to that aspect of their relationship is what it is.

Y'all are used to the highlight reels.

Y'all are used to the narratives of Jikook.

Jimin is not a woman. He is a man.

Jikook are TWO MEN dating eachother.

They are gonna lean into their masculinity at some point and you are gonna have to get used to it.

They are gonna roughhouse and that's okay too. Comes with the testosterone. Jimin is gonna hit JK's ass on his birthday and leave an impression- that's not abuse OP.

JK is gonna fling ping pong balls at JM and that's equally not abuse. It's how men play sometimes when there is less formality between them.

For as long as I remember this whole JK hates JM has always been part of the Jikook narrative.

Jimin lost his luggage and JK didn't even care.

JM did that and JK didn't even hold his hands. He has changed.

JK doesn't like JM blah blah blah.

Yall been saying this for years since 2014 when I joined the fandom and yet here we are.

If JK saying other teams had a competitive advantage over his team in Run and him bemoaning that in Run to you is a red flag all I can say is bless your hustle.

You are talking about a guy who rejoiced he had gotten Suga for roommates but ended up spending the night sleeping next to JM.

Same guy who said he wanted to ride with Tae ride in a car but then Tae had to drag his ass away from JM's car so he could share the ride with his soulmate.

Please feel free to freak out over your perceived 'red flags.' Time will tell if they really are. Time always tells.

I'm just gonna take a sip from my new virtual mug, root for Vmin, root for Tae Kook, all the while dodging the slaps from Jungkook and certain jokers when I say these things🤣

Seriously though, not to dismiss these issues raised by anon because I take red flags seriously as an alt-shipper. I can probably list several pages of red flags that can potentially lead to another Soop conversation between Jikook. it's just none of the things OP has mentioned in here fall within that list for me. But that's my POV. Her POV is totally valid too.

We are all shipping Jikook in a way that makes sense to us.

As for that run episode she is referring to, I've already shared my thoughts on it.

Jikook seemed excited at the start of the episode. Run editors pointed it out, RM mentioned they had been excited all morning before the shoot- indicating they were together and happy around eachother prior to the shoot. Therefore whatever put 'both of them off' if ever something did put them off during the filming had nothing to do with their feelings for each other. In my opinion.

Nam Jin have said on several occasions they don't like to be roommates and have wailed over being paired on several occasions and yet they live. Jikook will live.

Let's not disguise insecurities as constructive concerns.

Anywho.

Signed,

GOLDY

I3+Bakudeku mutual pining idiots Actor AU @miss-lorali request. I’m an idiot cause my idea is gonna be waaaay longer then I was aiming for lol.

“Okay,” the hiring director motioned for the pair to move closer. “Mr. Midoriya, remember you’re a scientist and Bakugou’s character is here to take you to safety. But you don’t understand why just yet. So, if you are ready, please begin the reading.”

Katsuki gesturing wildly, “pack it up quick nerd, we gotta get out of here before DAV gets here!”

Izuku pretending to complete a file download. He slammed his fist on the imaginary desk. “I can’t make the computer move faster! I don’t even understand what the hell is going on!”

Katsuki, “you’re science experiments aren’t important, we—”

Izuku straightened out, walked over and placed a finger on the larger man’s chest, running it slowly down from his collarbone to his pecs, while lowering his tone and narrowing his eyes. “Oh,” his brow raised, “and what would a grunt like you know about science?”

Katsuki slapped his hand away in annoyance, though a light flush arose on his tinged cheeks. “F-Fuck off!” He gritted back. “Just hurry the fuck up!”

“Yeah, yeah...” Izuku went back to the imaginary desk and pretended to type something. “30 seconds, fast enough for you? Probably like your bedroom speed,” he mumbled the last portion.

“What?!”

“And cut!” The hiring director yelled. “That was perfect!! Midoriya you’re hired!”

“Oh hell no!” Katsuki screamed at the director. “He added lines at the end! How is that okay?!”

“Because,” the woman countered. “It was still perfectly in character, and you know very well that the Director allows actors to ad lib if it fits the scene.”

Katsuki crossed his arms, “I refuse to work with him.”

“You’ve already signed the contract,” her brow perked up, “and may I remind you of the penalty if you quit now?”

“Find someone else!”

“No. The chemistry between you two came through perfectly on camera. It’s done. He’s it. End of discussion.” The woman then ignored the raging blonde and turned to Izuku. “I’ll let your agent know so we can sign the contracts, and I’ll have the full script sent to their office by end of day along with the filming schedule. You did a great job today holding your own and not getting lost next to Bakugou. I’m glad to have you on board with this project.”

“Thank you so much, Ms. Ashido. I was quite excited when I heard about the project and look forward to being part of the team.”

“Kiss ass,” Katsuki sneered. “You’re in. No need for simpering.”

But Izuku played it cool. He wasn’t about to play into the leads temper tantrum. “You might be top as an action star, but I have my own credit successes. So, stop treating me like the hired help, or I’ll make you scream in another way.”

Katsuki’s eyes flashed wide and mouth hung agape. It’s been a long time since anyone’s stood up to him and this smaller, green-haired, freckle-faced mouse just grew a set of balls to rival his own. “H-how dare you?!”

“I dare,” Izuku grinned brightly. “See ya later Kacchan!” He waved as he walked away.

Ms. Ashido giggled. “Oooo, this is gonna be so good! I must say I’d chalked him up as iffy, but he really proved me wrong.”

“Little shit is already giving me a nickname? Who the fuck does he think he is?!”

“Your new co-star.” She patted his chest twice and walked away with a smirk.

“Fuck!” What did he just get himself into?!

That afternoon, Katsuki left the studio in a total huff. And to think, he’d gone in excited to be working with Izuku Midoriya. Their movie credits ran in different circles, but he knew exactly who the man was. Izuku was from all he’d seen a great actor, and the perfect person to play his opposite. The guy looked like a handsome office worker, lean but built well, smaller then himself, and would fit snuggly against his chest in a romantic scene. In fact, it was after one of Izuku’s very first movies as a lead that a crush bloomed for the man. He had expected a quieter guy, but oh, boy! Had he been blindsided! And if that didn’t just turn him on even more!

Hence the dilemma he now found himself in. He’d have to act side by side with a man he was extremely attracted to, but only pretended to be. Katsuki was certain that Izuku’s attitude during the read was the same as his— pretending. Because that’s how you sell a movie. If the audience buys into what you’re selling, box office sales will go up. It’s not supposed to be real emotions. Heaven help him this just might kill him!

At home, he read through the script again noting the section that would be his hardest to overcome. The love scenes. No full nudity, not even close, but there is a section near the end where in a moment of pent up emotions, and the exhilarating rush of emotions, they end up lip-locked. Granted, the more realistic it is, the better, but Katsuki felt the nerves kicking in just thinking about it. He could only pray that in the real moment, and energies are heightened, he simply runs on instinct and acting prowess.

‘Come on, dumbass! It’s not your first kiss scene!’ Katsuki growled to himself in the safety of his own home. “Stupid!” He was making himself all flustered like some virginal teenager about to kiss his first crush! Fuck that! He wasn’t about to show Izuku any weakness! The last thing he wanted was for the man to figure out he was really just an overgrown pining fool behind a mask of anger. He didn’t even know which way the man swung because Izuku kept his life private, very private. A miracle in their world of paparazzi. It meant two things, Izuku really was good at hiding, or simply wasn’t seeing anyone for them to catch. Either way, Katsuki couldn’t figure out what he desperately wanted to know. Did he have a chance?

A month later, Katsuki and Izuku found themselves on location in Europe where most of the scenes would be filmed. The premise of the movie is of a top-tier scientist in the field of chemicals played by Izuku, who is to be kidnapped. But because MI6 caught wind of the plan, they sent in one of their agents played by Katsuki to get Izuku to safety. They barely make it out of the lab in time and now they’re on the run, being hunted by a group called the DAV who want Izuku to create chemical weapons for them. Katsuki needed to somehow get Izuku safely from his home in France, back to England where the MI6 brass waited to secret him into permanent hiding.

“Stop, stop, stop!” Izuku screamed and yanked Katsuki to halt. The moment they stop moving, he collapsed onto his knees, clutching his chest trying to catch his breath from all the running. “W-what is going on?!”

“Look,” Katsuki tried to yank the man back to his feet, but Izuku slumped and played a dead weight. “Damn it, we gotta get out of here before someone sees us!”

“No! I-I can’t keep running like this! I’m not exactly athletic! Now, tell me what the hell is going on!”

Katsuki growled and ignored Izuku’s pleas. He grabbed him instead and dead lifted him up, hoisting the man onto his shoulder in a fireman carry. Izuku bucked, but Katsuki literally slapped his ass to behave. “Just shut up for now,” he snapped and took off running down the alleyway. “I’ll explain everything when I get us somewhere safe!”

“If I’m the victim, shouldn’t you be nicer to me?!” Izuku retorted.

“I’ll be nicer if you stop causing me a headache!”

As soon as they exit the alley, Katsuki quickly surveyed his options. The bad guys blew up his car, so he needed transportation. He saw a man exiting a vehicle and rushed over, pulling a gun on them.

“Gimme the keys,” he aimed at the man’s head, to which they immediately complied. “Now scram!”

Katsuki put Izuku back on his feet. “Get in!”

“Where are we go—”

“Just get in the fucking car!”

Once Izuku is inside the passenger side, Katsuki got into the drivers and hightailed it out of there, heading towards the outskirts of town.

“Trailing car... And cut! Perfect!” The director called out. “Thirty minute break to reset for the next scene.”

“Kacchan, wanna get some lunch with me?” Izuku asked as they stepped out of the car.

“No,” Katsuki replied and quickly walked away, leaving his co-actor standing there with a sad, pouting look on his face.

‘Don’t turn around!’ He screamed at himself. Just co-workers, he reminded. Don’t get too close to that cute... freckled... “Fuck!” Katsuki screamed the moment he slammed his trailer door behind him and fell back against it. ‘Why’d I slap his ass!’ He groaned and ran a hand down his face. It wasn’t in the script and apparently the director didn’t mind it. ‘You did it cause you wanted to...’ his conscience chimed back. “Fuck you.” That’s not true...

A few minutes later there was a knock at his door. “Go away!” Katsuki snapped, he didn’t want to be bothered. Then a second knock, and a shuffling sound. “Go the fuc—” He whipped the door open to find no one standing there. “What the?” That’s when his looked down and saw a wrapped sandwich and a piece of paper tucked under it. Katsuki picked it up and closed door, opening up the sandwich to eat it. He was hungry, just didn’t want to take Izuku up on his offer. As he ate he opened the note:

I just wanna be friends :) that was a taxing scene, so you must be hungry. See you back on set. -I

It had been Izuku.

“Tch.” Katsuki bit down on the sandwich. ‘Didn’t have the balls to stick around though.’ But despite his grumping, he couldn’t help the light blush filtering onto his cheeks and warmth filling his body. Izuku was just too damn nice.

Filming an action movie was a lot more taxing then the consumers might realize. Thankfully, stunt doubles did the hardest scenes for the pair, but close ups and cardio elements were all them, and to see Izuku keeping up with him left Katsuki pleasantly surprised. Too pleasant. Moments in close confines, of him holding or dragging the man around left his libido in agony by end of day only to be relieved by a hand it didn’t want. Almost four months of agony had left Katsuki’s mind a buzz, trapped in a cycle of false realities and wishful thinking.

It was the last day of filming, and the scene Katsuki had dreaded had finally arrived. So much so, that he’d convinced the producer to hold off on filming it till the very end despite it taking place two-thirds of the way through the movie itself. Screw it, they can edit and splice it in. For a lot of actors, the intimately romantic parts were the hardest to accomplish, because conveying such raw emotions and making it believably real for the audience took great finesse.

They were holed up for the night in a small run down inn Katsuki managed to find after crossing the French border into Belgium. They were both exhausted, Izuku’s character more so, unused to such physical demands. DAV always managed to catch up to them within a day or two, so it left them little time to breathe, and Izuku was at his breaking point.

The smaller male pounded on Katsuki’s chest while tears streamed down his face. “I can’t keep doing this! Why can’t they just leave me alone?!”

Katsuki grabbed Izuku’s flailing arms gently to stop him. “I don’t know why.” He pulled the man towards the bed to sit down, taking a place beside him as he did his best to console. “But I promise I’ll keep you safe. We’ll get to safety soon and it will all be over with.”

Izuku sobbed harder, burying his face in Katsuki’s shoulder. His fingers gripped tightly to the man’s torn shirt. “You can’t promise me that,” he mumbled. “I’ve caused you so much trouble, maybe it’s best if I gave myself up to them.”

Katsuki pushed the man back and forced Izuku to look up at him. “Don’t you do that! Don’t you dare! You think I’m gonna just let them take you?!” His voice cracked as he channeled real emotions of the fear of losing this man. “You... I’m not letting them take you away from me Hitomu!”

Izuku looked up when he heard the pain behind Katsuki’s words to find tears pooling and clouded ruby red eyes. He held the man’s gaze for several seconds, staring, lip quivering. “I don’t want to leave you either, Takeo.” Izuku’s fingers slowly uncurl, smoothing out and lowering to Katsuki’s firm abdomen where it came to rest just above the waistline and pressed in firmly. “I feel safe with you.”

Katsuki’s breathing slowed as his eyes widened. Shit! He’s not ready for this scene! He thought he was, oh how he wanted to just rush in and steal Izuku’s lips! But his mind froze as glistening emerald eyes held it hostage. What was his lines? Are there any lines? Fuck! He couldn’t think straight!

“Cut!” The director yelled. “Bakugou, what’s the problem? You hold the gaze for a second then kiss him. Do you need a break?”

This was the first time since making it big that Katsuki’s messed up a scene like this. He took a moment to snap out of his trance, then yelled back. “No! Let’s just get this over with.”

“Alright. Places people, let’s take it from the last line Midoriya. Action!”

Izuku repeated the last line, “I feel safe with you,” adding a deeper grip to the waist band of Katsuki’s pants.

Katsuki’s eyes lower, half-lidded as he reached out and caressed Izuku’s face gently, cupping the man’s cheek before leaning in and landing a solid kiss. His mind was barely holding it together to keep his actions gentle.

Izuku reacted accordingly, once again his fingers gripping to the fabric of Katsuki’s clothes as the kiss was deepened considerably.

Katsuki’s hand trailed up and behind, tangling into his co-actors green curls. He let go of any control and lost himself in their embrace, in the feel of Izuku’s supple lips against his own. In that moment, they were no longer filming a movie scene, but transported into the blonde’s fantasy, of so much more that he’d love to do this man’s body. His eyes rolled back and fluttered as Izuku trailed heated kisses down to the nape of his neck, pressing firm nibbles and light mewling whines.

“Kacchan...” Izuku huskily whispered too low for the microphone to pick up.

But Katsuki heard it loud and clear, and he responded with a rumbling groan that went straight to his groin. Izuku had used his nickname... Not the characters name! His nickname! And damn did it sound sweet to his ears! Katsuki’s too far gone and doesn’t stop the decent, even as the smaller male applied pressure, allowing Izuku to guide them deeper onto the bed. Hands followed curves and groped flesh as they moved under the confines of shirts in the makings of a sex scene. Izuku truly felt wonderful against him, moving in time with his movements like a perfect dance. It was only once on his back, with their bodies semi-entwined, that the director finally yelled cut, and Katsuki’s fantasy came to a screeching halt.

“Brilliant work guys!” The director congratulated his two stars as they made their way off the bed. “I think we can call it a wrap!”

Applause rang out on the set as everyone was high-fiving or shaking hands, patting the two men on the back and adding to the job well done message. Izuku was blushed and beaming, but Katsuki still flustered from the scene, ignored the jovial repartee and beelined it to his trailer for some privacy. It was a miracle no one noticed the slight pitch in his pants, because now he was fucking horny! If the director hadn’t stopped them, who knows how far things would have gone. The sound of Izuku’s voice whispering his name continued to repeat in Katsuki’s mind like a siren, but he couldn’t give into it.

“This was just acting!” Katsuki screamed in the safety of his trailer as he punched the wall as hard as he could. It’s a fantasy! A goddamn fantasy world! And it’s over! “Stop thinking about him!” At that moment, there’s a knock on his trailer door followed by his name being called out.

“Kacchan? What was that loud bang?”

Fuck! It was Izuku again!

“Kacchan?” More determined pounding on the doror. “Kacchan, c-can we talk, please, I need to talk to you.”

“I’m fine, go away!”

“I’m not going away, we need to talk about what just happened!”

Katsuki growled and slammed the door wide open, ignoring the throb of his hand. “No, we don’t! It was just a scene Izuku!” But after shouting his piece-of-mind, he’s taken slightly aback at the teary-eyed man who looked like he was on the verge of crying.

“It wasn’t just a scene for me, Kacchan.”

“What the fuck are you talking about?” Katsuki questioned, though again his whispered nickname sprang back to the forefront. Had Izuku said it on purpose?!

“Did you feel nothing between us?” Izuku’s lip quivered as he spoke. “Was the passion that came out on set just acting?” His voice cracked. “If you say yes, I-I’ll leave you alone. It’s just— I took this job because... I like you, Kacchan. I’ve liked you for a long time and thought maybe... but— that’s okay, just forget it,” he turned to walk away unwilling to take the rejection face-forward. “Thank you for the opportunity to work with you.”

Katsuki stood in his spot completely stunned by the confession. But the further Izuku moved away from his trailer, he quickly realized he was about to lose the very thing he’d come to desire. He raced after the man and grabbed him by the shoulder, spinning him around, and slammed his lips into the stunned Izuku. It was filled with an even more heightened passion then before, now that there was no audience watching them. He nibbled at the man’s bottom lip, eliciting a groan, while Izuku’s hands grabbed desperately onto his shirt, holding tight.

“Fucking nerd,” Katsuki mumbled with a smile while threading his fingers through Izuku’s hair. “How could I not want you too after you’d riled me up since the day we met.”

Izuku blushed in embarrassment. “S-sorry for coming on so strong. I just got in my head that I needed to look cool and not a pining mess. I really wanted to work with you.”

“Tch, I guess I can’t really talk, because I acted like an asshole, so I didn’t look like a pining idiot.” Katsuki laughed. “Guess we’re both pining idiots.” He kissed Izuku again and lowered his voice to a sultry tone. “Wanna finish what we started?”

Izuku giggled as his hands tugged at the man’s waistband. “Most definitely.”

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Silly Bonus: from a chat with a friend lol

As they start to walk back towards Katsuki’s trailer, Izuku takes hold of the man’s hand. But now that the adrenaline had worn off, Katsuki immediately flinched from the pain. Izuku stopped and lifted it up for inspection, seeing the slight swell of the man’s knuckles and drying blood. “Oh my goodness, Kacchan was that noise from you punching the wall?”

“What? No!” He pulled his hand back and hid it behind his back.

“You’re bleeding, we should get the medics.”

“I’m fine, it’s fine, it’s just ketchup.”

“Ketchup?” Izuku’s brow raised. “Really?”

“Really.”

Like We Always Do | Kim Sunwoo

Inspired by always and the vlive videos he has listening to keshi

Pairing: Kim Sunwoo & Female reader AU: Collegeboy!Sunwoo Word count: 1,851 Warnings: FWB relationship, mention of alcohol, drinking, mention of having sex (but not describing it) Genre: I don't really know what this is lol feel free to give it a genre? Author's Note: Initially I had a plot but while I was proof reading, the plot didn't match anymore lol I hope you enjoy reading it though!

You didn't know what to expect when college started for you. You didn't expect to meet your two best friends, Changmin and Chanhee. You didn't expect to meet their group of friends, especially Kim Sunwoo.

He wasn't the approachable type unlike the rest. Though you had difficulty reaching out to Younghoon at first, but you later realized that he was as crazy as your best friends were, especially if he was with Chanhee. They bicker a lot.

Jacob, Eric and Kevin became your second group of best friends. Especially when your classes didn't have Changmin or Chanhee, you'd either have one of the three instead. But you weren't always so lucky to have classes with them either. When you had physical education, you were alone. You got acquainted with your classmates in that class, all except one. Kim Sunwoo.

Whenever it's that class, he acts like he hasn't seen you before. He would avoid eye contact with you, he wouldn't stand next to you or near you which you thought was very rude. He even asked if he could switch partners with someone else when your teacher asked you to stretch in pairs. But that didn't work, so for the rest of that school year you were stuck with him as your stretching partner.

Finals was getting closer and that made you a home body. You didn't meet with any of your friends, and they didn't meet with you either since everybody wanted to try hard for the finals. Your studying was going smoothly until you had to work on your physical education finals project. Your finals project was to create a video about different ways to exercise at home. When the topic was given, you already had ideas, you just needed to execute them on video. "Now that we got the topic out of the way, I’ll be assigning your partners. Remember, this should be a team effort. This is either a pass or fail grading."

Your mind went blank. Especially when your professor said that you would be paired up with someone. You were praying to all the gods that you knew to be paired with anyone except Sunwoo. But it seemed the gods weren't in your favor.

Days after the announcement, he went to your apartment as you guys arranged in class. As much as you wanted to meet up outside or in a cafe, Sunwoo thought it would be much better if there weren't any people so you could brainstorm peacefully. He had a point, and he offered his place, but you didn't want to take any chances. So, now here you both are, brainstorming in the living room with snacks and a few cans of root beer.

"How flexible are you?" sunwoo asked, very randomly at that. "Um, I don't know? I mean, I did gymnastics when I was younger, but I didn't continue that anymore. Why?" you were nervous to ask for the reason, but it could have something to do with the project. "I thought about doing yoga. It's one way of exercising, plus it comes with meditation and a whole lot of core work to do some poses. So, I thought, why not do this?" he pushed his laptop monitor to you and showed you, his research. A couple of tabs were open that had different videos about yoga and a few articles about it were open too. People who knew Sunwoo thought that he wasn't a very good student, and that's what you honestly thought as your first impression of him. That impression you had though is long gone. You saw how serious he was while researching and compiling all your resources together. When he said he'll give you his part of the project, he delivered. When you both decided to work on the video at his place, you initially thought he'd turn you down in an instant, but he didn't. He cleaned up his place a bit on the day of the shooting and even prepared some yoga mats he borrowed from his sister.

From morning till late afternoon, you guys were working on the project; creating a script, thinking about yoga poses you'll both be doing and individually while one of you explains, and editing your first draft. Working with Sunwoo was productive. Surprised? You were too. He was the one who took the initiative on editing the video while you take a rest. "You can take a nap on my bed. I’ll work out here in the living room." he offered. It was a sweet offer, but you turned him down gently and said that you'll help him edit, even if you weren't the one using the laptop.

An hour later, you fell asleep without knowing. Sunwoo stretched his arms and legs then looked over to you only to see you asleep. Your head on the arm rest, while your legs were curled up to your chest. He figured you'd be uncomfortable, so he gently took your legs and placed them on his lap after removing his laptop that was previously there. He saved the video before closing it shut and eventually, he too fell asleep.

5 hours later, you woke up. Still feeling groggy but you managed to sit up to stretch an arm and rub your eyes. You looked to your right and noticed your legs on Sunwoo's lap. You blushed instantly and thought about removing them, but you didn't want to startle him. You checked the time on your watch, and it was almost 11pm. You needed to go if you wanted to catch the last bus ride back to your place, but you didn't have the heart to wake him up. Moving an inch closer, you took this opportunity to look at sleeping figure...and admire it in between.

You noticed how his nose was perfectly pointed and how his lips were so plump that you suddenly started wondering what it would feel like to be kissed by him. Startled by your own thoughts, you lightly shook your head and let out a small chuckle. People have always talked about how Sunwoo wasn't partner material for projects, but he was the exact opposite. He contributed a lot than you expected, and you were thankful to have a partner like him.

For the next few days, your schedule would have Sunwoo in it. Even after finals week, you would hang out whenever you were both free. When your final grades were given out, both of you passed and you wanted to celebrate with him. Only if he was up for it. "What do you have in mind then?" he asked. "Hmm, well, what do you do when you want to celebrate?"

"Stay home." he chuckled when he saw you rolled your eyes. "I’m serious!"

"I’m serious too. I just stay home. I only go out when the guys want to hang out." you sighed, crossing your arms and pouting. He found that cute, but he wouldn't tell you that obviously. "Come over to my place. We can watch a movie, have dinner and dessert." it didn't sound like a suggestion and an invitation. It felt like he was really telling you to come over, which you didn't mind since you've been there a couple of times during and after finals week.

After your last class, Sunwoo waited for you by the school entrance. Both of you went to the convenience store first buying some snacks and drinks (this time you went for alcoholic drinks) in case after dessert you'd get hungry. Arriving at his place, he told you to make yourself comfortable like always. You plopped yourself down on his couch, removing your cardigan and placing them on the arm rest. Sunwoo was in the kitchen preparing your instant dinner and taking out a bottle of soju.

A bottle of soju turned into bottles. The movie that he put on was dismissed, just playing in the background while you both take turns drinking as you played spin the bottle. It's usually fun with more than two people but you guys were having the time of your lives. It started out as a wholesome round, telling each other secrets you've never told your closest friends and such. Until Sunwoo started becoming flirty with you. You went with it at first thinking that he wasn't serious in doing it, but the more his actions got bolder, the more you started to realize that he was really hitting on you. Was it the alcohol? You can't really blame it on the alcohol. Was it the game you were playing? That's not it either, for sure.

"Are you flirting with me?" you boldly asked when the bottle pointed at you.

"What if I am?" he gave a small smirk.

"You better be responsible for doing it, mister." you said with a joking tone.

He let out a chuckle, you did the same and silence came into the room. You were just gazing into each other’s eyes, both showing a flirty smile, not realizing that Sunwoo have moved closer. Your cheeks were heating up. He probably saw a faint blush on your cheeks when he moved closer to you.

Slowly, he continued to move but this time he sat in front of you. You looked down on the ground and saw his hand slowly approaching yours to lace both your fingers together. Your cheeks were burning up. You didn't want to look at him because you were getting nervous, anxious and shy. But he made you. He lifted your head by putting his index finger and thumb under your chin, his eyes found yours and you couldn't help but stare back at him. Should you say something? Should you do something? You were starting to panic that you did something not like your character.

You kissed him.

You kissed him so abruptly that you didn't even had the chance to close your eyes, like how they kiss in the movies. You were about to pull yourself back but Sunwoo pulled you closer; he cupped your face, slightly tilting his head to kiss you better. You were melting. Your eyes shut slowly, and that kiss evolved to something else that involved getting in bed, getting naked and a lot of moaning.

Whatever you guys did that night, kept happening. Your friends didn't know but your best friends surely did. You couldn't hide it from them. But they told you to be careful. Being friends with benefits with someone is tricky. As Chanhee said, "There will always be someone that will fall in love in this kind of relationship." but that wasn't you.

That really wasn't you, because right after you graduated university, you went abroad. Sunwoo knew and you said goodbye to him. You didn't keep your plans a secret and neither did he.

He would always think about you though. Remembering the first time you met, your finals project, your first time in bed with him and your continued relationship as friends with benefits. He wished that he could turn back time and go back to those days.

Like we always do.

A little fic thingy I wrote from a script I'm going to turn into a comic at some point. I did change it up a little from the original script but that's okay lol. Just a little story about Henry and the Projectionist.

TW: Death, unhappy ending

Henry ran as fast as his tired, aching legs could carry him, feet sticking in the ankle deep ink, spurred on by the bloodcurdling shrieks of the raging creature hot on his heels and guided by the light that shook as the Projectionist chased after him. Rounding a corner, he spotted a Little Miracle Station, one of the many boxes scattered throughout the studio put there so one could hide from the monstrosities that inhabited it. Thinking fast, he got in the box, shutting the door just as the Projectionist came around the corner. The man(? Did he even still count as a man? Henry wondered) seemed confused, not knowing where Henry had gone, and began to walk away. It seemed that he, like the Ink Demon and all the other inky creatures in the studio, didn't have much of a sense of object permanence, or maybe he was only able to see moving things. Henry watched him go, his heart aching at what had apparently become of his good friend Norman.

Norman.

Henry wondered if the Projectionist would respond if he heard his name. Perhaps there was still a shred of humanity left within him? There was a slim chance from what Boris had told him through notes, those times when the boy he used to be- Buddy- was in control of the wolf's body and mind. Sammy Lawrence had murdered Norman as a sacrifice to the Ink Demon, Buddy had told him, and the Ink itself had claimed his corpse. The Projectionist was more or less a zombie, a dead man reanimated.

Still, there was a chance, tiny though it was, and Henry got a crazy idea. It was risky, he knew, but he needed to find out if the Projectionist still had a trace of Norman left in him, like Boris had a trace of Buddy and Alice had a trace of Susie. That, and he couldn't bear to let Norman go on like this. If he was completely gone, putting him down would be a mercy, Henry thought, like putting down a rabid animal. Even though he was only armed with a Gent pipe, it might be enough to do the job if he had to.

He took a deep breath, steeled himself, and exited the Little Miracle Station. The Projectionist was some distance away now, so Henry ran after him.

"Norman!" he called out.

The Projectionist let out a screech and turned to him before starting to charge him, but Henry stood his ground.

"Norman, stop!" Henry ordered, praying to any god that might be listening that this would work.

The Projectionist stopped and seemed to stare at him, the light from his projector glaring into Henry's face.

Henry took this as a good sign and went on.

"Are you still in there, Norman?" he asked. "Can you hear me?"

The Projectionist- no, Norman, Henry told himself- began to slowly walk toward him.

"It's okay, Norman," he said softly. "I know you didn't want to turn into this. It's not your fault."

When the Projectionist reached out to Henry with his thin arms, Henry's heart lifted. Surely this was a sign Norman was still inside this creature? Henry reached out to him in turn.

"I'm sorry this happened to you, Norman." He walked forward to meet the Projectionist.

Upon reaching the creature he thought could be his friend, Henry looked up at him, squinting in the glaring light.

"You don't have to hurt anyone anymore, okay?" he tried to reassure him, and tried not to flinch as the Projectionist took his face in his hands, surely leaving inky handprints on his cheeks, but Henry didn't care. He was getting through to him, he was sure of it. But something wasn't right.

"Norman?" he asked. "What are you-"

CRACK.

Silence.

Henry lay on the floor, his head turned at a wrong angle, and the Projectionist stared down at him before kneeling down to tear into his once-friend's corpse.
