wait wait wait. some ppl thought azira was ooc for the end s2?? as if it doesnt make complete sense??? and also i actually have issues with most of the theories bc to me it just seems like metatron (a) was in the right position, (b) had the right words, (c) exuded the exact amount of pressure all to get azira to agree like!!! its a manipulation tactic!! he was almost guaranteed to get the angel on board.
to aziraphale tho i think he has a plan. i think theres more things hes contemplating in that elevator than we realize Including that maybe he felt betrayed that crowley didnt trust him?? that crowley wasnt seeing how They could manipulate heaven into both stopping the second coming and changing the system for the better. like just think about it they always make plans to solve things and get each other out of trouble and crowley solved the biggest mystery of s2 so why didnt he trust aziraphale to solve the Next big mystery aka the second coming?? and im not aaying this as me bc they were miscommunicating but i think that was just one of many thoughts azira had in that elevator
"you wont help me ..? :(.... Fine. >:( I can do it myself."
aziraphales priorities by the end of the gabriel conflict are metatron and heaven and where he stands and how theyve been wrong and messed up and how that can change
crowleys priorities are by the end pf the gabriel conflict are talking to aziraphale and sealing the deal that they choose each other.
theyre just on different pages and tho crowley is fully done with heaven and hell and doesnt even want to bother with them anymore, aziraphale does. and not in the "i trust u" way bc i think he doesnt Trust anyone from heaven but he is Fucking Scared!!! of everyone up there and the Ineffable Plan™ and i gotta be honest the solved s1 but it doesnt mean heaven and hell werent gonna try again??
idk im not against either of them and the things they decided to focus on and i just want them to communicate and i have hope that in s3 aziraphale succeeds in stopping the second coming but that he gets some form of help from crowley and thus they have a chance to rlly talk it out and make up <3
* id also like to add that im proud of them for trying to communicate for the first time!! no it didnt go well and yes they resorted to some things that probably hurt one another but that means they have so much room for improvement!!! u make a mistake once, u think it over, and then u know how to solve that situation the right way!! thats just trial and error its how relationships work <3

im literally like crichton at the end of the finale now (fr struggling to putwords together) but i was being patient and polite with d'argo and chiana but
rightso ifr am struggling with putting things into words tonight i feel fucking . braindead and have done for the past two nights
BUT this is one thing i can sorta express i think like
firstly: i totally dont buy the marriage thing sorry. i dont get why theyre rushing this relationship so much. i just dont fucking buy any bit of it & idc... LOL... LIKE-
im not even against-against them (or i wasnt). BUT i think chiana and d'argo could work if done right, ive said that. or at least theyd be an interesting exploration even if they didnt end up together-together. i can see a version of events and miscommunication, done right, where they do gravitate towards each other since theyre travelling in close quarters like that and they have the wrong expectations and theres fallout and such- but all the way up to marriage? i dont know... i do not see it... like
i can seeeee chiana maybe panicking and just. agreeing to marriage even if she doesnt actually yknow with d'argo but i dont see d'argo proposing this fast. like this is crazy..... give it more than like. half a season of fucking background work, holy shit, yknow? eve n if theyhave been through so much together, like... i think i heard they got married at some point but i seriously expected that to be like s4- bringing it up now?
and like
also
ok
soheres the thing
i dont know how old jothee is. sigh. + i think, even if we did have an exact number... WELL thatsa whole other ramble, but tbh one of my pet peeves in sci fi is people insisting that alien ages would always strictly correspond exactly to human ones wrt maturity (emotional and physical) which makes no damn sense like..they wouldnt even have to linearly correspond, or have the same structure, or same concepts (of adolesence, of being elderly, etc) and i mean they could, but its very much the same as like. only ever envisioning aliens as being strictly humanoid with face bumps like . i do nottt get it....
which i SAY because like. ewww!!! i strictly DONT want to be one of those ppl who is like "teehee, age doesnt matter, its arbitrarryyy to this alien culture [uses it as an excuse]" BUT i also dont want to be like one of those ppl who like "haha, well technicalllyyy this alien is 18 sooooo!<3" bc like . with the hypothetical extraterrestrial race yep! it does become completely arbitrary & banging on about it like that its like... ur completely losing sight of it, doing the math to try and check whether the fucker is legal, is completely, trying to gotcha "haha, its fine if i ship these two" &... missing the point ... of WHY weird age shit is wrong in the first place
bc its abt power dynamics... & its insaaaaane u have to point that out to people sometimes... but its like. p*dophilia is wrong bc young people are . extremely vulnerable. and do not have the power in that position; they are taken advantage of, and the are not capable of informed consent, and its sick in the head, yeah..
+ so WITH alien stuff. like fictitious species and things like that, yeah? its very much down to the precedent writers create, and what they construct and what they build...
andthats all to say iliterally. do not know what to fucking think of chiana necking with jothee because like....
literallyyyyyy. my honest 2 god truth. in my opinion? IF d'argo and chiana had never been a thingl; IF you wiped the slate clean, and never had even entertained it... chiana and jothee? they would actually make a HELL of a lot more sense to me.
like i always saw chiana as a very young adult. probs my ageish - maybe like a year or two younger?
and so i think jothee... again. shrugs. idk how luxons would age; fine, if he's technically younger in years, but like... FROM what ive seen of him, he reads like someone also of that age range, maybe a touch younger. but definitely close enough that i can see them very easily gravitating towards each other.
and again. like i think i said before, initially i read chiana and d'argo as more like... a parental dynamic, if literally anything? which is why i wasnt totally onboard with them to begin with- but was willing to, like, go with it because i understand that was my initial interpretation, not the canon gospel - and hey, if they can convince me otherwise then cool. i'm the one who misread it, yeah?
(bc also i will say like: ithink d'argo IS like a good example of being very alien in terms of age, in combination with him also being a bit off, i suppose, bc like... they say he's young multiple times in the show, and they say it was odd he went off and had kidsyoung- so like? to me... i again figure, like, a very young dad who just seems a hell of a lot older. i know guys likethat irl-plenty of them- who matured v fast even if theyre really still. a lot younger, in honesty. and i think thats fair enough.)
BUT YEAH. LIKE. ITS SO FUCKING.., EVEN THEN IT- IT JSUT KINDA FEELS .ughhg. RUHGHGH. like
in isolation. if we had one or the other i THINK it wouldnt be fucking weird. for the reasons i said. i really dont think it would; the writers could make the either or work. but like- both of them...? yeah no- thats what makes it strange, even if you do play fast and loose with how ages work here, bc its like.. that DOES feel like a really freaking. icky shift to me even if i dont think chiana is taking advantage of jotheee or d'argo is taking advantage of chiana necessarily. theres just a strange dissonance, here, and its like.. mmmnn. noo :(
bc like again i said. i dont find chiana and jothee that weird by themselves and thats whatkinda makes it a shame bc i do think they actually suit each other better and especially frustrating bc. i just fucking wish they hadnt done chiana and d'argo at all at this point, bc it hasnt really done much to give us anything at all. and, like i think d'argo and her just feel like an unfolding misunderstanding- and not in the "oh, we balance each other out; we will work towards it" kinda way, but just like a. these ppl dont fit and they tried it butits just not meant 2 be way and thats fineee i LIKE it when you explore stuff like that man but eek they really... ARENT taking the time to explore it in that way. are they. theyrejust kinda botching it and
BC MEANWHILE LIKE. IF WE WERE TO TALK "OH, WHO WOULD BE AN ACTUAL THRIVING COUPLE?" from what ive seen thus far... jothee and chiana have a lot in common that i could easily see them connecting with quite strongly andi think... with the both of them in another environment, it could be messy, but with the rest of the moya crew grounding them it could actually be really sweet for them to find sth in each other. but like any potential of that- yeah. no . its gross now. because of the kinda setup presented
whichis to say
I DONT FREAKIGNGGG LIKE IT WAHHHHHH I DONT LIKEEEE IT I DOJT LIKEEE ANY OF IT. >:(

My favorite Seventeen ship fics on Ao3; Part 1.
Be warned I read a LOT of smut so if that makes you uncomfortable and isn't your cup of tea, just skip the scenes. STILL SUPPORT THE AUTHORS THEY WORKED HARD ON THE FANFICS.
(See here for the most common tropes in these ships)
Also a disclaimer, I as a reader, does not take any of these to heart nor do I apply them to real life and judge the boys whether or not they do anything done in these stories. It is merely fanfiction.
Soonhoon
1. Adventures of Cat and Kitten by SunAndMoon (LadyMorgaine)
Hybrid AU, A/B/O
Top Soonyoung/Bottom Jihoon
Side Verkwan, Jihancheol, Junhao, other ships to be added.
Alpha Tiger Hoshi, Omega Cat Jihoon
Series
There are two books, the first one mainly focuses on Soonhoon but the other one explores the other ships more
Jihoon is a sassy bottom but very needy
Soonyoung is a dominating top but also complies to Jihoons wishes of course
Soonyoung calls him kitten Yasss
They are literally a power couple
Very kinky
The first book is geared a lot towards the sexy times
The second book has been 70% dialogue and storyline
Fluff, smut, romance, angst
Overall very tasty 9/10
2. Vampires Before Christmas by SunAndMoon (LadyMorgaine)
Vampire AU
Top Soonyoung/Bottom Jihoon
Side Verkwan, Jeongcheol, Meanie, Junhao, Seoksoo
Series
There are 4 books  ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Soonyoung is a hottie
He covers all Wattpad book bad boy love interest bases
Mysterious? Check. Jihoon met him in the rain, no idea what he does for work or where he goes when he's gone.
Rich? Check. Comes from old money he says. Owns at leasts two countries probably.
Caring? Check. Nursed Jihoon back to health when he was sick and continued doing so even when he wasn't.
Hottie? Check. The most attractive man out there, Jihoon the lucky bastard.
An otherwordly being? UM HE IS LITERALLY A FREAKING VAMPIRE??? HELLO???
Soonyoung was the embodiment of your wildest dreams like even though Jihoon was actually on the brink of death, like my man fucking touched god, he was still horny when he got close to Soonyoung and kept smelling him like he was ambrosia or something. Then he had a wet dream about him. Understandable.
VERY cute story. Soonyoung got like the biggest dick out there too.
Smut, Romance, Fluff, Angst
19/10 read it time and time again.
3. All eyes on you by aquariusblues
Dance school AU
Top Jihoon/Bottom Soonyoung
Slowwwwww burnnnn
It was maddening how in denial Jihoon was
His perseverance is something to be admired
Soonyoung is the new kid thats friends with everyone
They both keep burning themselves out like please take a fucking break
Wow is that miscommunication I hear? Oh it definitely is, and there is so much of it
This book makes you wanna pull your hair and not in a kinky way
I actually cried when they finally got together
There isn't much smut in here
EVERYONE IS YELLING AT JIHOON TO ADMIT HIS FEELINGS
The rest of the members are barely there
Mostly monologues
Lots of self deprecation and self acceptance
Its beautiful in a sense
But I wanted to throw my phone
This story haunts me at night
Angst, Fluff?, brief smut
7/10 Reccomend this to a friend–so you both can revel in your frustrations
4. No strings attached by aquariusblues
After College AU????
They have their own jobs and everyone is doing their own things?? What do I put here
Switch SoonHoon
Minor Verkwan, Meanie
Soonyoung is Seungkwans cousin
Jihoon is Seungkwans boss/friend
So thats how they got together
Awkward? Seungkwan offered okay its fine
They wanted a friends with benefits thing
But they've been sleeping exclusively with each other
So thats a problem
Or so they think
Soonhoon never want to admit their feelings
They just can't feelings with each other
THIS AUTHOR JUST CAN'T FEELINGS WITH SOONHOON
Emotions are hard
ALSO VERKWAN IS GETTING MARRIED
It was a brief scene but good for Vernon being able to put a ring on it
SEE SOONHOON COMMUNICATION IS KEY GUYS
THATS RELATIONSHIP 101
But their dynamic was adorable
Romance, smut, fluff
8/10 spaced out and remembered it again
5. Code Red by just_a_pinwheel
Police AU, A/B/O
Top Soonyoung/Bottom Jihoon
Alpha Soonyoung, Omega Jihoon
Side Jeongcheol, Meanie, Verkwan, Junhao
Jihoon hates Soonyoung
Then Soonyoung becomes his boss
AND HIS NEIGHBOUR HAHAHAH
Oopsiesss
They both loveee work
Like proper workaholics
Lots of pushing and pulling
They broke up in the middle of it
I wanted to scream
Heats and mating
Of course its ABO
I have never wanted to slap Jihoon so much
Lots of crying and denial of feelings
"Its for the best" NO ITS NOT DON'T BREAK UP
Sorry I'm bitter
They are literally surrounded by the healthiest couples they just can't deal
Soonyoung is just tired
Romance, smut, fluff, angst, violence, gore???
Its a police au so theres gonna be blood
8/10 when will their torture end???
6. Mask Kingdom by just_a_pinwheel
Mob AU
Top Soonyoung/Bottom Jihoon
Side Jeongcheol, Meanie
Both of them are crime bosses its actually really hot
Soonyoung is a BIG flirt
The first time they formally met, Jihoon gave him a blowjob LOL
Soonyoung calls him princess yes please
Jihoon still can't feelings
Im sensing a pattern here
But he comes around pretty fast don't worry uwu
There was one chapter where Soonyoung got REAL jealous and they had some rough sex lol
He BRIEFLY called him oppa during it
Its chapter 21 I gotchu fam
Jeonghan was a bitch for a while BUT THERES A REASON OKAY THATS NOT JUST HIS PERSONALITY
Jihoon is a little twat but I can say that about every fanfiction of him so go figure
SMUT, ANGST, barely there fluff, romance
6/10? Its kinda bland
7. What we were promised by Mistehri
Mafia AU, A/B/O
Top Soonyoung/Bottom Jihoon
Alpha Soonyoung, Omega Jihoon
Side Jihancheol, Meanie, Junhao, Verkwan
Heats and Mating
BTS and Ateez are there too
Yoongi and Jimin are together, I don't know why i felt the need to say that
Yoongi is Jihoons cousin
He's kinda an ass to Soonyoung
Cause he broke up with Jihoon
THERES A REASON OKAY DON'T WORRY
And they both pretended to hate each other after that
Before they got back together theres little snippets of their relationship
Its really heart breaking idk how I could stand reading it
BUT ITS REAL SWEET WHEN THEY GOT BACK TOGETHER
Also there was one scene in chapter 28 when Namjoon mentioned mates where he glanced at Seokjin
Idk maybe I'm gonna attract more armys if I mention them
If you're there for Ateez, they are literally so brief
I think they mentioned Monsta X too at some point maybe
Like I wanted to scream at the both of them
WHY ARE THEY BOTH SO IN DENIAL
FRUSTRATION WITH MANY FEELINGS
But also
YOU CAN'T DIE YOU'RE THE MAIN CHARACTER
Not to say I'm okay with the others dying as well
JUST KILL OFF AN OC OR SOMETHING I MAY NOT STAN BTS THAT DOESN'T MEAN I'M OKAY IF YOU KILL THEM OFF
Graphic depictions of violence
But they're kinda brief
Angst, smut, fluff, romance
12/10 I would very much reccomend
JUST FEELINGS JIHOON YOU CAN DO IT ITS NOT THAT HARD
Also I love bottom Jihoon. Something about someone who carries so much power and authority, just to be a completely helpless submissive at the hands of Soonyoung of all people is just something to be desired.

also 001 zc im springing it all on u
spring it all on me baybee. i’m ready. i’m thrivin
Zay & Charlie
When I started shipping it if I did: oh if i were a viewer, i think i’d be sniffing out this storyline EARLY. literally from the moment charlie leaps up to volunteer to tutor him in 103 and then is all “you’re so unapologetically yourself” with all that Awe i’d be like... mhm. okay. mhm ok mhm mhm mhm right mhm....... although i think i would be skeptical. i would be kinda like (as i think some of you were) are they actually going to go through with this...... are they playing me 4 a fool.... but then when you watch 112 after so much build and theres the RUNNING ACROSS THE CITY TO GET TO THE AUDITION AND AINT NOOOO AWWWYWYWYWYWYAAYWAAYYYYY AND THE LOUVRE KISS LIKE WAHAHAHWAHWAHHHHHHH AHHHHHHHHH -- yeah i’d be in it from there. you don’t see it coming going INTO the first season, but to be honest zc kind of Owned the first season in the later half there. they were subtle in some ways but then they really just brought the mf PUNCH
My thoughts: so. clearly. i love them. fdkjshgkjsg i think i have a lot of fondness for them because they really organically blossomed in the first season in a way i wasn’t expecting. as y’all know, we broke the story for the second season first and then backtracked to s1, and i will be candid... charlie was like... not a person when we first outlined s2 JFGDSKLGKDFGKLFDH. he was in a relationship with zay, and it was supposed to be this big surprise going into the second season, but otherwise we really didn’t like... know what to do with him or honestly had THOUGHT about it. but then as we started working on s1, he just kind of... emerged, as well as their storyline of barely acquaintances to friends to unexpected lovers. and i really really love what they grew to be. they’ve been one of the best parts of writing the show tbh and i have so much fun writing their scenes, even when they’re challenging (cough 208 cough, one of the most difficult scenes i’ve ever written in anything ever)
What makes me happy about them: i love how they see the other person for who they actually are, how they can cut through the bullshit and see the other for how they wish they could be seen (charlie seeing zay as more than the popular “cool” kid that he has to put on as a sort of defense to survive at aaa, and zay seeing charlie for who he actually is beneath all of the facades he’s created to please the rest of the world) and how that allows them the courage to try and actually BE those things. like. charlie may not have ever gotten to a point of really considering accepting his own sexuality if it weren’t for zay, i think -- especially since zay then gave him this incredibly SAFE space to figure it out AND loved him at the same time. i love how they demonstrate such a Balance for one another (there’s that key word again!), like how in s1 a core part of their friendship is the fact that charlie seems to be the only person zay really has who cares about all the things he cares about but also isn’t... a crazy monster the way everyone at aaa is fDJSKFLDG. and zay brings balance to charlie in showing him its okay to have fun, to be imperfect, to throw a swear word around or not give a damn sometimes or do things just because he wants to. and that’s important! that’s major! and then i just love love love how they’re playful with one another but it comes from this very sincere fond place. their dynamic would not be what it is without their sort of teasing nature, but it NEVER feels like it’s coming from a place of animosity, it’s always this affectionate kind of banter. i’m really picky about how teasing translates into romance, and i think the way they make it work is a fave thing about them for me. i’m forgetting like 4324325 things i wanna say here but i love them MUCHO
What makes me sad about them: so. hm. yeah. you know how there are those otp ask games or gif memes and there’s always that category that’s like “it’s right, just not right now” ships? i have always disliked that category bc i think people constantly misinterpret it (or its just a poor label to apply to a ship lmao), but i think they are actually a perfect example of what i think that label is supposed to represent. charlie and zay are 100% right, but not right now. they can’t be right when charlie is still trying to figure out so much of his sexuality and his sense of acceptance, because no matter how much they love each other it’s just not fair to zay to have all these conditions on their relationship. like, it’s great that he likes him enough to be okay with it, but it shouldn’t be that way in a truly healthy situation. yknow? and when the rules keep changing or grow to be confusing (i.e. how charlie seemed to be improving in 207 but then backslid majorly in 208), you end up with like... well, miscommunications like 208. and those can be brutal.
Things done in fanfic that annoys me: again, i’m just projecting based on my experience in fandom and observing fandom, but here are a handful of things i think would be common in zc fic that would drive me up the wall. 1) babying and/or pandering charlie to the point that he’s just like... this uwu baby gay that completely strips him of his complexity, surprisingly sharp sarcasm, all his uneven edges and quirks, etc. 2) fetishizing of them both or more specifically, racism surrounding the portrayal of zay 3) a complete bashing of charlie’s faith, as that goes against how he’s written + his arc as a character [ like if you gotta work thru ur own grievances with organized religion then by all means, but it would probably bother me bc of his characterization and im literally not even religious lmao ] 4) banter that crosses the line and goes into that territory of lowkey bullying or tasteless that is a squick for me
Things I look for in fanfic: so of course, characterization that allows for the complexity of both of their characters would be A1 from day one as usual. would always love something that highlights the dance thing since that is... so important to their relationship in the show lmao. people who could capture their delicate balance of banter would be whew!!!! also random but i thought about it earlier today -- when winter olympics rolls around again, who is gonna write the ice skating au? it’s only a step or two away from dance y’all, let’s SEE IT!!!
Who I’d be comfortable them ending up with, if not each other: zay would make the best of any relationship he gets into, but he and riley could be cute as i have mentioned before (altho i naturally prefer them as best friends, but they would treat each other the way they deserve which is important). there’s a character coming in s4 who i actually really enjoy with zay, but that’s a spoiler and neither here nor there... as for charlie, i again will make my vague comment about appreciating lucas x charlie... and that’s all i can say on that.............
My happily ever after for them: god i just. i want them to be happy and in love. and i mean that in that they’re happy with themselves, so they can be happy with one another. like, TRULY happy without all these conditions or strings attached. and to be able to be happy together IN PUBLIC. literally can you imagine. CAN YOU IMAGINE??
Who is the big spoon/little spoon: hmmmmmm again, i think it would vary. but i think my inclination is that typically zay is the big spoon, although i will say i think charlie is overall more cuddly (not that you’d ever assume so in public bc he’s so repressed DSJKFJDSKLGFDLKG)
What is their favorite non-sexual activity: i assume we wanna discuss the ones... that aren’t dance DJSKLFJDKGJFDLKJGKDJHLKDH. aside from the obvious, i really do think zay and charlie like to go out and explore together and just like... share experiences. like going to art museums is a big one, and seeing live performances. art is something that really connects them and i don’t think that can be understated, and one of their favorite things is experiencing art together and then getting the other to talk about their opinions on it. i also do think that while zay isn’t big on literature, he can be swayed if charlie reads to him. art completely aside, i think they like to go to the grand central market and browse / try new things. they also like window shopping, but that’s kind of funny bc their styles are so different so they’ll be like ooh and the other will be like rly. FDNSJKFDJSLGJDSG. omg they should have a day where they just get to dress the other person up all day in different stores... THERES a fun activity... zay is dressed head to toe in GAP and he’s like please set me on fire fJDSKFJDSKLGJKDLFG
send some winter hiatus asks !! or try this one
