Work affair. (Yandere!Boss x GN!Reader)

Masterlist

Synopsis: Your boss never cared much for you, until he did.

Red Ludenhart x Reader.

Warnings: Stalking, breaking and entering, alcohol, clubbing, drugging (to reader), death (minor character), forced memory loss,

Your boss was a tad bit strange, but you can put up with the strange behavior if it meant getting paid. Even if your boss didn’t allow you to step outside of his office and the VVIP area of the club that’s okay, maybe he doesn’t want you to be influenced by lazy workers! Or he doesn’t want any of the sleazy non-VVIP customers to harass you! It was all for your own safety. You think.

Red was delighted to learn your apartment was close by to his club. He would always offer to walk you back home when your shift is regrettably over, he has your address memorized, as well as the entire layout of your apartment. The second fact was not something you were aware of however, you should definitely get better locks. It was child’s play to break into your humble abode.

The first few nights he broke into your home he was far more cautious than he is now, Red didn’t know when your bedtime was, but when he decided to install cameras all around your apartment, he could finally have some peace knowing when you were and weren’t awake. And of course to spy on any guests you have over, watching you walk around and commit yourselves to your hobbies on the weekends.

You were the definition of perfection in his eyes. Red wasn’t one for love and that mushy stuff, he’d always preferred the more chaotic parts of his life than the mushy lovey dovey stuff he’s seen on TV. That's what he’s been saying to himself up until he met you, the new bartender. Red has no clue who hired you but he sure as hell is eternally grateful for it.

It wasn’t a love at first sight situation, nor did you meet immediately. You met the owner of the club you work at a month after you started working. It was during the monthly staff meeting when you did. Red was confused by your presence and asked who you were, after introducing yourself to him he brushed you off. Red didn’t care if there was a new employee, as long as you don’t cause trouble you’re not someone important to him at all.

Red thought you were attractive, sure, but most of his staff are– nothing new. Red doesn’t like the main entrance of his own club, usually taking the back entrance for special patrons, and into the VVIP area. So that means months passed, and the only times he’d ever see you are during the staff meetings. He’s sure you do at least the bare minimum since you don’t get a lot of complaints like other staff. Maybe the illogical assholes every now and then would accuse you of something but the floor manager usually has it handled.

It wasn’t until you had the closing shift while Red was still there that he realized how wonderful you are. Normally he’d be back home before the closing shift, today was different. It was a long complicated process but Red managed to convince an investor to put in double the money they originally invested; it was now 5:50 AM. Patrons have been kicked out, evident by the lack of noise, and Red’s sure the staff have left by now.

Red needed to drink something, and he needed it to be as heavy as possible. The VVIP areas didn’t have anything strong so he went to the general area of his club. Red expected the usual emptiness of the club, but someone was still there, vacuuming the confetti off the floors. In the middle of the large empty club stood you, headphones on as you nodded along to the music you were listening to.

This was something he hadn’t seen before; and he just stood there– watching as you cleaned up, unaware of the predator watching your every move. Eventually, tired of standing there Red just walked over to one of the bars around the club, took his favorite brandy bottle, poured himself a cup full, and kept watching. This time he was leaning against the bar counter. It was cute how you were none the wiser of his presence.

Eventually you turned off the vacuum. Turning around you expected nothing less than perfectly clear floors, which yes that you did see, but you also found the owner of the club, smirking at you, glass half empty. You stood there, motionlessly staring at Red as he stared right back at you. Not wanting to get into trouble for whatever reason you sped off into the restricted area for the staff and booked it to the janitor’s closet; just as Red was about to say something to quell your anxieties.

Well, not Red’s interest was certainly piqued. Picking up the vacuum you abandoned he made his way over to the staff only area, waiting to hear some shuffling but all he heard was the staff’s exit door opening and closing. You left. Not a trace of your existence to be seen. Looked like you were all ready and packed to leave, it’s fine, he’ll just put the vacuum back and see you the next day.

And see you he did. For weeks, he would approach you at the end of your shift, chat, and then walk you back home. A month and a half into your newfound friendship he promoted you to be the VVIP’s sole bartender, firing the old one for reasons unknown. Red watched your every move since, in his club, in your apartment, with your friends, shopping. Wherever you are. There will always be a camera following your every move.

Your boss was a nice man for getting to know you, walking you home as the sun rises, making sure no one bothered you, and when someone did he’d defend you like his life depended on it. Normally, you’d fall in love with a man if he did all that just for you. But you were already in a committed relationship. 

Your husband, Richard, is a military man, striving to be the next Chief. He moved away from the city you two lived in right before you started working at the bar– Rich was transferred over to a different city, and you didn’t want to move away from your family and friends, so you compromised. Richard tries his best to come by and visit, he still pays for your shared apartment, and always calls you morning and night. He is the man for you.

Red knew about Richard, of course he would. Red knew everything there was to know about you, and was he concerned over it? No. Red has connections everywhere. Including in the military, so when an unfortunate accident occurs, a misfire, or maybe a terrible case of food poisoning. Whatever it may be, your ex-husband is now dead. Leaving room for Red to be the sincere loving friend. Yes, come running to his arms, cry to him, it’s late and you don’t want to be alone? No worries, he’ll stay the night!

Red’s been doing an amazing job distracting you from the death of your ex-husband. Hugging you when you need, cooking mouth watering dishes just for you, and buying you many things to help distract you from the grief. Like gaming consoles, knitting yarn, books, art equipment, anything! If he ever sees you show interest in something he will immediately purchase it or at least try to get a hold of it. Whenever you show concern or guilt over the amounts he’s spent on you he softly pets you and tells you that his club is very successful.

Over time, Red truly weaseled his way into your life. He spent most of his nights in your bed; although platonically, as you so claim. Red likes to act like a good househusband when he does sleep over, wake up early, cook breakfast, and shamelessly flirt with you. You two walk together to work, he doesn’t dare think of work up until your shift starts.

Red doesn’t like to harm you, but he has been slipping a few pills into your food; a few anti-anxiety meds, with sleeping aids and here comes the perfect concoction for lapses of memory, causing you to forget quite a bit but not too much to be dangerous. He does this for a while, until you mostly forget about the fact that you had been unfaithful to Red by marrying some rando. Once that happens Red pulls back from the drugging. It was easy to do so, with a spare key to your apartment and him cooking you most of your meals.

You stare up at the ceiling with a soft smile on your face, you ponder how you hadn’t managed to fall in love with your husband sooner. He’s always been there for you, he’s protected you from creeps, and he’s spoiled you even before you got together. You were so lucky that you had him. You looked back down, gazing at the handsome man laying his head on your lap. You caress his hair, your perfect man, Red.

Red loves his little butterfly.

All your wips are unreasonably good (unreasonable cause i *can't choose* which ones to not ask about), but after much dilemma and much pondering and much telling my brain to but be greedy, i have finally decided - can you please tell more about

1. Babe the fanboy

2. Kentakim food Battle

3. Winnerdean and the matchmakers?

(yes, 3.)

(you don't have to answer all of them tho, i know in being extra greedy XD)

(also this was too hard to choose, why do they all sound so so good!!)

Thank you so much ! and i will gladly tell you everything about them !

1 Babe the fanboy : this idea came from 2 thing - an interaction under one of my post about Ateez and Pit Babe and that old video of Pavel reaction to Ateez Firework' video :

Babe one day founds an Ateez video on YouTube, more specifically, San's 'Imagine Dragons - Warriors' Performance Video...end he becomes obsessed ! He end up watching every MV and fancam (mostly San and Yunho), binge watching they content and of course, buying the album and merch. At first he tries to be discreet, because he's embarrassed, but that until Charlie comes home with that big ass (sold out) TYUdeongi body pillow (the perk of being friend/brother with a very rich and influential CEO) and the big Sandeoki plushie. And every thing is fine until the day Ateez announce a concert in Bangkok. The pre sale start at the same time as the biggest race of the season, so Charlie fein and illness and bravely face the war that is the pre-sales. After a very fierce battle and the loss of his sanity Charlie doesn't get the VIP ticket for Babe, which make him sad but Babe is already super happy to just have a ticket. And this is when Kim Minsu, fresh from the shower, casually let out that " yes yes the Kim Hongjoong - Ateez's Captain, well he's my cousin" -> cue to Charlie's fainting and Babe giving Kim the cold shoulder, until a few day's later, when Kim give Babe and Charlie ( and the whole x-hunter pack really) VVIP ticket. So Babe meets San + the member in the backstage and end up going in full fanboy/babygirl mode, while Charlie just watch it with the fondest smile on his face

2 KentaKim food battle : here the beginning of the fic (also the only part fully written)

“And what exactly happened to MY kitchen !” Alan was standing before them, arm crossed on his chest, his eyes scanning the disaster in the kitchen before stopping on them. Kim was pointedly looking at his shoes and Kenta…Kenta was starting to feel bad. No, worse than that, he was feeling sick. Heart hammering in his chest, stomach twisting into knots, cold sweat breaking all over his body. Because he knew what was going to happen. The same thing that happened the first and only time Dadd- Tony caught him playing with food like this. Punishment. But it was okay, because he was an adult now. Not a ten years old child, trying to hide behind his friend, his older brother while Daddy was fuming with rage. He could withdraw the pain from the lashes and the cold claws of hunger taking hold of his empty stoma- “Pfff !!!” Hearing Jeff breathy laugh was enough to get Kenta out of those painful memories. He could also feel Kim trying and failing to hide his own laugh next to him. Daring to bring up his eye to look at Alan, he could do nothing but stare in disbelief as the older man got cross eyed, trying to look at the drop of mashed potatoes that ended on his nose. Looking up, Kenta could see some of that mashed potatoes on the ceiling. “Now, could you tell us why there is mashed potatoes all over the kitchen ?” Jeff asked them while gently wiping his boyfriend nose.

3 WinnerDean and the matchmakers

Winner has a crush on a racer from X-hunter. No, Not Babe. The other one...no, not Way either ! But the tiny, pretty one....yep Dean! And Winner tries to flirt with him, get his attention (in a very Winner way...), on the track and outside of it (running into each other in a mall, at the bar....) And both his team mate Kim, and Dean friends, North Sonic and Charlies catch on. And it's both hilarious and sooo painful to watch because Dean is to damn oblivious. Winner by him lunch ? it's because he won his race yesterday, off course ! Sensually dancing with him at the club ? Well it's a club duh and Winner may have thought he was dancing with the cute boy he was talking to earlier !! (at least he wasn't trying to put his hand IN Dean pants...) So North and Sonic decide to play the matchmaker, Kim and Charlie tagging along just to enjoy the chaos.

It's basically disaster after disaster, Dean being an oblivious little bean, Babe being the best emotional support/protector/big brother for Dean and Winner just suffering (like the pathetic meow meow he is)

There is a VVIP membership threshold for content monetization. What does Weibo do with this?

This year, Weibo added a VVIP user level.�� HE Tuber However, is membership tiering necessary? What will this operation bring to Weibo? Of course, Weibo will definitely not do meaningless things, which will have a certain impact on the platform. For many reasons, let’s take a look at the author’s analysis.

In the era of full competition, users are the most valuable platform assets.

This is not only reflected in the “war for people” among major e-commerce platforms during June 18 this year. A more specific trend is that as one of the most influential social media in the mobile Internet era, Weibo has adjusted its new membership system.

Since this year, Weibo has made product adjustments many times. This adjustment to the membership system is only a minor change, but it is a necessary step to improve user experience and ensure a healthy content ecosystem based on the platform's user ecological structure.

1. How necessary is membership stratification?

In 2023, Weibo has set a core goal: to promote the growth of user scale, improve operational efficiency, promote traffic growth, and strengthen the core competitiveness of the platform.

Accordingly, products also need to make appropriate adjustments to serve the goals.

The purpose of Weibo’s membership system adjustment this time is to meet the personalized platform services and experience of each type of user based on the user ecological structure.

At present, Weibo's user ecological structure has formed three types of users with obviously different purposes of use, namely:

Content consuming users who mainly obtain information;

Social users who focus on content sharing and interaction;

Head users to create personalized influence and achieve commercial monetization.

Different users have different rights and interests on the platform. Because of this, Weibo has added VVIP user levels based on the existing VIP members and SVIP members.

The existing VIP and SVIP membership systems are more aimed at content consumption and content social users, and the rights settings are mainly based on personalized identity and social interaction.

However, such rights and interests cannot meet the current needs of top users who want to increase the influence of their accounts and monetize their content.

Some top Weibo users have expressed the hope that new members will help monetize their content, and some content creators hope that new members will increase the exposure of their content. Especially the rights and interests related to the exposure among fans, and some people are also concerned about the rights and interests in account management, such as the upper limit of the blacklist, the business card to guide people to follow, etc...

VVIP members corresponding to new operating rights were launched. For bloggers who are willing to create influence, by paying, they can use various tools on Weibo to stack buffs for themselves, achieving a double improvement in influence and monetization efficiency.

In fact, Weibo has previously provided targeted support policies for celebrities and big Vs in various vertical fields. For example, the "Life+" plan covers fashion, beauty, travel, sports, food, mother and baby, digital, automobile and other consumer decision-making areas, bringing more considerable benefits to top users who want to increase fan stickiness and industry influence. monetization efficiency.

On this basis, VVIP members can better serve top users in various fields who have established a certain influence on Weibo, helping them obtain higher content exposure, fan base and long-term and stable monetization income. .

After the launch of the VVIP membership level, Weibo has the differentiation to fully satisfy three types of mainstream user groups - consumer users, social users, and top users. Targeted service measures to meet these three groups are equivalent to meeting the needs of 95% of Weibo users.

Weibo has also been able to achieve a virtuous cycle - each type of user can find rights and interests tailored for them, and produce, consume, and share content according to their own purposes.

At the same time, the attention of users at different levels can be filtered by member weights to form new hot content, attracting more users with the same preferences to swim in the sea of ​​information.

My OnlyOneOf Concert Experience!

On April 7th I was lucky enough to get a VVIP ticket to participate in OnlyOneOf’s Dallas fansign, hi-touch, and concert, and I want to share my thoughts on it! Naturally I will be biased as I’m a huge fan of them, but I hope this information can be informative or at least interesting.

The first thing that struck me was how socially comfortable the whole experience was. The only other groups I’ve seen in concert are Ateez two times and P1Harmony once. While I wasn’t uncomfortable at these concerts, I suffer greatly from social anxiety. Even when I’m handing out freebies I can’t look most people in the eye or start full conversations. Typically I go alone as well, so it tends to be a fun but lonely affair. However, the accepting and warm atmosphere as well as my own self improvement managed to pull me out of my shell this time and I conversed with many other attendees and even made friends with one!

I think too that the attitude of fans reflects qualities of the artist. Through the personas and values they portray in their music, including but not limited to some of the loudest queer acceptance in kpop right now, OnlyOneOf have crafted a space in which their fans can be comfortable dressing and acting the way they want to, enjoying the things they enjoy proudly and behaving kindly. Many of the attendees I talked to spoke of OnlyOneOf as a beacon of hope, comfort, and safety. I think this rings true for me as well.

The fansign was lovely, as I was able to give four of the members my art. Kyubin and Rie, I WILL draw you and give you that art as soon as I can. Unfortunately I was at a total loss of words and couldn’t express what I felt in my heart. I hope they can feel it when they look at my drawings. The group photo was extremely fun, simply because I got to make a heart with Kyubin… what a charismatic man. On the whole, this concert really made it impossible for me to have a bias. The members are so charismatic and lovely in real life.

The actual concert itself was amazing, my first time ever being so close to the stage. No one was pushing or being rude, and I actually had a bit of personal space! The performances were amazing of course, OnlyOneOf are true performers. Their choreography is artistic and beautiful and the way they move is surreal, even more so when you see it in real life. They’re great at interacting with the fans as well, coming up with fun stories and jokes between performances. None of it felt stale or forced which… unfortunately I felt Ateez was when I saw them the second time (a very small gripe for a great concert). Definitely a plus for them as a group.

Vocal-wise, the boys are great but it’s hard to distinguish between the guide and them when you’re so close to the loud ass speakers. Or they weren’t singing live very much. Or they’re so good you can’t tell them apart from a guide sometimes. It could be any of that. The moments where I could here their live vocals were beautiful though, very clean and stable.

Negatives of the experience… to be honest, there were very few. The biggest was the lack of seats. This is a personal issue for me to fix on my end as well, as I have hip problems when standing for long periods of time. Towards the end, I was in a ton of pain, having stood maybe four or five hours. Something to consider when buying something general admission. If you have difficulty standing, it will be hard for you to participate.

The only other negatives are slight annoyances. Typical fans yelling while members are talking because they want their main character moment (probably less than there were at Ateez? I could be wrong tho). Also I’ve heard some very negative things about the woman mainly in charge of this tour on Studio Pav’s side. I can’t verify much but it’s something I’ve been side eyeing. How the hell are you gonna be xenphobic and manage Kpop tours… but I don’t really know her so I can’t say much else for sure. The concert was well organized, the staff were slightly aggressive but that’s understandable considering how rowdy Kpop fans can get.

All in all, I would 100% buy the same ticket again. Only $205 and you get a truly healing concert experience and memories to cherish. I will definitely see OnlyOneOf in concert next time I’m able to, and I will be closely following their musical journey as it hopefully continues for much longer. They’re doing something very special, creating a truly safe space for queer people when it often feels like those are becoming fewer and fewer. I look forward to their continued growth.

[sassyfrassboss]

Yea that was a statement he really intended to spin. They've been trying to get them to meet since they arrived. I think the palace threatened to have the story corrected so that's why he back tracked.

I don't think they'll end up meeting at all this trip. That would require them to drive to BP from frogmore with the kids and the kids won't be attending any events this week so they won't be at BP.

I also don't think that HM would cancel going to the derby to go to a Childs birthday party especially during the jubilee weekend there is no way. It's another shot in the dark from the sussex duo because they NEED that. They need to meet their cousins.

Kind of crazy that they thought schedules would be rearranged just because their kids are coming back to England for the first time in a few years ( and lili ever). This is not the weekend for that, and if there arrival and seating locations are anything to go by I don't think they grasp this. They could have brought them over in January or February, but they didn't because they aren't ready to have hard conversations. They want the full scale media attention and photos, they don't care about family relationships.

I doubt TQ will meet the kids. I just don't see it happening with her health the way it is right now.

I do think Harry and Meghan will go to the Derby tomorrow because W&K won't be there.

Of course H&m thought the BRF would drop everything for them! LOL these two think they are the VVIP's of the family and that the only reason people tune in or show up is for them.

The best celebrity sightings at Fashion Week

February — aka Fashion Month — is one of the most exciting times of the year. Packed full of runways across New York, London, Paris, and Milan, there’s never a shortage of buzz-worthy moments. And though Fashion Week might seem to be all about the latest designer offerings and discovering what the industry will be all about in the coming months, the fashion is not limited to the runway. The front row and celebrity guests attending the event are often at the forefront of the upcoming trends. With Fashion Week underway, we rounded up our favorite celebrity sightings as they graced the shows of their favorite luxury brands. 

Sungjae Lee

Fresh off the relationship reveal with bandmate — and fashion darling — Minah Delacroix, IMPACT!’s frontman, Sungaje Lee is undergoing a rebrand. Venturing beyond his signature laid-back, hip-hop-inspired style, the singer turned up at the Valentino Fall Winter fashion show dressed in a tan suit by the Italian brand. Unexpectedly taking over Milan Fashion Week, the rapper presented a refreshing image that has us all marveling at the power of love.  

Daniel Choi

The members of pop sensation IMPACT are not just front-row favorites, they’re fashion muses! Vocalist Daniel Choi proved this to be particularly true with his appointment as CELINE’s Global Brand Ambassador, just a few days ahead of the French label’s most recent show. The singer then set Paris on fire when he showed up to Hedi Slimane’s show clad in a full leather look that nodded at the designer’s signature rock aesthetics. Red leather jacket, skinny pants, sequined top, messy hair, what was there not to love about Daniel’s killer rockstar look?

Tara Lee

Despite the rampant speculation suggesting that IMPACT!’s Tara Lee and NCT’s Johnny Suh were on a lover’s getaway in France, turns out Tara traveled to Paris to attend Chanel’s Fall Winter show. A VVIP of the brand and longtime friend of the house, Tara was spotted at The Palais Garnier clad in a black dress accentuated by an XXL flap bag and a hair bow. We don’t know if she indeed got to spend time with her boyfriend — who yes, was in Paris for Fashion Week too — but she was surely feeling romantique! 

Johnny Suh

Much has been said about Johnny Suh’s modelesque physique and fashion affinities, but the NCT singer is surprisingly new to the fashion scene. Making his debut on the front row, the singer traveled to The City of Lights to attend Thom Browne’s latest show. Johnny surely made an impactful first showing, dressed in a gray suit. Beyond the screaming fans outside the brand’s atelier at Avenue Montaigne, the singer also proved his popularity by attracting hordes of female fashion editors, who couldn’t stop gushing about him. Watch out, Tara!

Jaehyun

Another NCT member making the rounds during Fashion Week was none other than Jaehyun. Unlike previous seasons, the singer — who is a front-row fixture at every event from New York to Seoul — kept his appearances to the minimum, choosing to attend Prada’s Fall Winter show only. Now, rumor has it that after his split from Jane Durand, Jaehyun kept the rights to Milan Fashion Week while Jane retained the Parisian and London territories, but let’s not digress. Jaehyun slayed his only Fashion Week appearance, decked in a nylon jumpsuit from Prada’s most recent men’s collection and his signature beauty look — that is slicked-back hair, of course. We approve!

Jane Durand

And speaking of Jane Durand, at Paris Fashion Week, the singer proved that her longtime association with Miuccia Prada is stronger than ever. Going from one powerful collaboration to another with the designer, Jane has practically grown to become a synonym with Prada Group — parenthesis, but do you remember the time fans were convinced that Jaehyun was selected as Prada’s brand ambassador thanks to his relationship with Jane? In her latest fashion foray, Jane went from front-row darling to runway model, walking the inaugural and closing looks at Miu Miu. Talk about making an impact!

Enzo Saint Pierre

Enzo Saint Pierre has long been making waves in the luxury industry with his beauty and fashion associations. However, among his most prominent friendships is the one he holds with the French luxury label Dior. The singer and actor is not only one of the brand’s ambassadors and campaign stars, but he is also a regular at all of their shows. At the presentation of Dior’s Fall Winter collection, Enzo put a twist on the maison’s classic aesthetics, opting instead for a striking outfit that featured a one-of-a-kind lurex Saddle bag and a matching sweater. A total head-turner! 

Minah Delacroix  

No fashion talk is complete without a mention of IMPACT’s leading lady, Minah Delacroix. The pop icon, designer muse, and all-around it girl is one of the most sought-after figures in fashion and her growing list of projects exists as proof of her prowess. In her most recent Fashion Week appearance in Milan, she flaunted how effortless her style is. Sitting front and center at Fendi’s show, the singer absolutely stole the spotlight dressed in a simple nude matching set paired with the brand’s new “Minah Bag.” See when you’re a natural?

And, ICYMI, the internet went into a collective meltdown when fans realized Minah's look totally matched Sungjae's front-row outfit at Valentino — yes, they both were in Milan, attending shows the same day!

Under Marula Trees

Rating: Mature (to be safe)

Warnings: Cursing, vague reference to shenanigans in the workplace.

Pairing: Jack Daniels X f!reader

Summary: You’re a host at an exclusive safari lodge and you suddenly have your hands full with a rowdy bunch of Statesmen. 

A/N: Alright, so this is my first stab at writing in around...10 years? I know it’s going to be bad, and the dialogue is horrendous but I have to just bite the bullet and throw it out there. All criticism and corrections welcome, I am super new to publishing on Tumblr. I might change the title because I literally just made it up in one minute. This also starts off a bit slow due to world-building and creating the visual reference points. English is also not my first language so there might be gremlins.

 I was so inspired by (and in awe of) many wonderful writers here, especially @yespolkadotkitty who drew first blood (tears rather!) with her beautiful work @sirowsky whose work I *inhale*, @asta-lily who is immensely talented and encouraged me to write a self-indulgent daydream (which is what this is), @honestly-shite with her immaculate writing and so many more. Thank you for sharing your incredible work. 

Some notes:

This takes place in South Africa - fynbos is a type of indigenous plant type which is found in the Cape Region.

Marula fruit trees are found throughout Africa. If you have any questions please shoot, I am very friendly and would love to explain anything you’d like to know. 

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

“Barry, I booked annual leave more than a month ago, you can’t do this. I...I've already paid for plane tickets, accommodation... a bloody phrasebook!” Your voice broke pathetically at the last part but you were going all in. He needed to understand how irreversible this was. 

Heart racing, you waited for the staticky landline to crackle again. The phone lines out here were really not great and you were internally cursing shitty technology and your shitty boss and you swore to several gods that you were going to lose your shit if he went through with this. 

“Y/N” He sounded tired, even through the poor quality of the call. “Henry is in hospital and this is a VVIP booking. No one else is available, what would you have me do?” 

Your knuckles turned white around the receiver and you hissed  “I don’t know Barry, that’s your problem. I’m not running Nimbali and if I were, I wouldn’t pick this moment to start managing a playpen for rich shmucks.” 

You had a great relationship with your boss but he was plucking at your last highly-strung nerve. You knew the retort had crossed a line as soon as it left your lips. 

“The guests are arriving two days from now...be ready.” Suddenly the phone beeped in your ear and the quip that had been flying out of your throat died at the finish line. 

You stared at the phone. 

“Motherfu….WHAT!?”. You threw the phone clean off the side table, making it wobble perilously. You were furious and had nowhere to channel the energy to, so you took to stalking around in your living quarters ranting to yourself. 

“So Henry needs some minor surgery and can’t stand around smiling at guests? Like he does anything on a bloody normal day?. Oh noooo of course, let’s cancel expensive travel plans!”

Your anger made your speech lean comically towards hyperbole but you needed to seethe and get it out of your system. 

“Did I learn Spanish for shits and giggles? Why yes it appears I HAVE, because OBVIOUSLY. I have the kind of time and money to just oh, I dunno” you threw both your hands up in an indignant gesture “rebook an entire bloody trip to Chile. That’s fine. That...IS...FIIIINE!”

You plucked open the door of your liquor cabinet  and pulled out a bottle of craft gin that you had been saving for a special occasion. 

You deserved to sulk properly, so you poured two generous fingers, adding a sad slice of lemon and flat tonic you fished out of the back of the fridge. 

At least the view was nice. 

You stepped onto the large wooden deck at the back of your house and inhaled deeply. The balmy air was fragranced with the fresh, herbaceous scent of fynbos. Stepping forward, you looked down onto the gently sloping valley beneath you; a panorama of undulations shaded in yellow and green, with the odd rock jutting out to pierce the smooth geography. 

You could already feel some of your irritation dissolving into the breeze. The sun was dipping low, bathing the sky in a deep blush and indigo wash, and every evening you felt like you were seeing an African sunset for the first time. 

Nimbali Safari Lodge had been your home for nearly 4 years now. Looking for a quiet place to finish your linguistics PhD, you stumbled upon an opportunity to live on the estate if you became a host. The job seemed too good to be true - a beautiful, cozy home nestled in an exclusive resort, majestic animals you could see anytime, and meeting new people from all over the world. 

The novelty, however, wore off during the first year. The location and animals were indeed magnificent, but the guests were trying at the best of times, and downright unconscionable at the worst. 

Guests normally ranged from prissy showbiz types who were more interested in sucking the bar dry and lounging by the pool than the elephants, to the rich and terribly spoiled who were only there to take photos with the animals to post to their socials. You had put up with a lot and could hold an infallible smile and professional veneer while doing so. That kind of professionalism was valued at this kind of lodge. 

The lodge prided itself on meticulous attention to detail and an unforgettable experience of wildest Africa, all in the comfort of immaculately air-conditioned rooms and pristine, white linened luxury. Horse riding, an in-house spa, game drives and more. Every convenience was anticipated and taken care of, and no guest request was too much trouble. Discretion also meant that if the guest was the trouble, it would never reach the outside world.  

You sighed. You disliked this group already. They were on your bad side for merely booking this week at the lodge. How DARE they. You groaned inwardly at the thought of catering to their every need while you could have...well..catered to your every need on a beach in Chile. 

Preferably with a smutty book, a hot guy and a taste bypass. 

-----------------------------------------------

You stood around in the lobby waiting for your VVIP group. After a heated call with a, in your humble opinion VERY unhelpful airline, you were in no mood. You stared unseeingly out of the large bay windows, past the tastefully decorated reception area with its large, comfortable leather couches and opulent lamps. 

You smoothed out your outfit absent-mindedly. Although staff were required to wear khaki or beige uniforms (typical!) hosts had a bit more leeway in line with their status. The light cotton-like material of your deep khaki jumpsuit hung softly from your shoulders and cinched neatly around the waist, giving the impression that you were a guest rather than part of the brick and mortar of the lodge. 

A loud bash yanked you out of your reverie, and you frowned at the main doors, which had swung open unceremoniously. Looking back you should have guessed that you would be saddled with the most raucous, ill-disciplined bunch for your sins. 

A silver-haired man with a cigar dangling from his lips was deep in conversation with a younger man, who despite his impressive musculature seemed to have trouble walking in a straight line. Behind them a beautiful woman scuttled in heels, trying to keep up, and another man wearing the most ridiculous all-denim outfit with….with...was that a Stetson? In this heat? 

You had to stop your eyeballs from rolling so hard that they would leave scuff marks against your sockets. 

As the group made a (jagged) beeline for the reception desk, Stetson seemed to notice you out of the corner of his eye. 

He turned lazily in your direction and came to a stop right in front of you. Looking you over leisurely, the right corner of his mouth pulled up in amusement.

It was clear at this point that things were about to go either very wrong or very humorously. 

“Well Sugar there hello” he slurred. 

Combined with a heavy drawl the short sentence was nearly unintelligible and you needed a few seconds for your brain to rearrange the words. 

Misconstruing your confusion for incomprehension his eyebrows shot up to his hairline and he started gesturing, his voice now much louder and speaking slowly. 

“HE-LO. My n-name (he plopped his hand on his chest) is WHIS-KEYYY. WHIS-KEY.  What IS YOUR NAME (wagging a finger in your direction). 

His adam’s apple bobbed slightly as he swallowed, waiting for you to magically understand him now that he has spoken the same language, but several decibels louder. 

“Sir, I speak English. You don’t need to shout���. 

Your clipped tone and disapproving look was rewarded with the widest, most delighted smile you have ever seen on a man. 

This was going to be an interesting week.

Hi Annie! May I request a ficlet with Steve winking at Tony? I just realised I don't remember ever reading a fic where he's the one winking....which seems like a missed opportunity tbh

Hi! I don’tthink this is what you had in mind, but with Endgame reaction stuff goingaround recently, this spontaneously popped up in my brain.

Post-Endgame, everyone lives, Steve/Tony first kiss, feat.Morgan, Bruce, Thor, Natasha. (also on ao3)

+

When Tony told the team that he was thinking of having a few people over at the lake house today, Steve foresaw two possibilities: one, a handful of Avengers crowded on the porch in a rather more cheerful reprise of their time travel proposal of a few weeks ago; two, a full-on party.

They got the party.

Where on earth Tony got the canopies and catering a mere day after the Battle of Earth (as they’re calling it), Steve has no idea, but here they are. Avengers – core, new, ancillaries, allies, friends and loved ones –flood the grounds of Tony’s deceptively rustic home, eating and drinking and laughing and showing off their abilities. Luckily it’s a daytime gathering so alcohol is less an issue thus far; it’s daytime to accommodateMorgan, of course, who declared herself a VVIP earlier and is being bolstered around on Tony’s arm as he introduces her to everyone.

Not that Steve’s been watching them (Tony) walk around and play host, Morgan quietly excited and her father looser and more upbeat that Steve’s seen him in literal years. And even if Steve is watching Tony, it’s only out of concern that Tony not push himself, not after the close call with Thanos, the other close call with the gauntlet, and the freshly accumulated stress of the past five years leading into a one-chance time heist. The episode isn’t even really settled yet, what with the stones under lock and key somewhere in these very grounds, since the compound is a square mile of rubble and very few places on earth are safer than an Avengers tea party slash mosh pit.

Still, it pays to be vigilant. On Tony. Due to his health, and his status as the focal point for today’s gathering.

So Steve tells himself.

He used to be better at papering over his own motivations. If anyone asked, he’d say that he’s distracted from the party by thoughts of tomorrow. There’s still a lot of work to come – rebuilding, networking, accommodating the return of half the world’s population and all its associated complicated trauma – which is so beyond the Avengers’ original purview that they might not even need the team for that. It’s Natasha’s call, anyway. Steve will probably follow her. Clint brought Laura and kids today, but he’ll be leaving tonight. Bruce has his own work elsewhere now. As for Tony, no one knows what the hell he’s going to do next.

Steve certainly doesn’t expect Tony to be approaching him now, with Morgan still making a swing of the crook of Tony’s arm.

“Here you go.” Tony practically tosses a laughing Morgan at Steve. “Free up my hands for me, won’t you?”

“Sure thing,” Steve says, having accepted that he’d never not do anything Tony asks of him ever again. Steve adjusts his grip on Morgan in one arm, and puts his plate down on a nearby table with his free hand. Morgan beams at him, while at the corner of Steve’s eye he just catches Tony’s stuttering smile, as though he hadn’t expected Steve to roll with it.

“You want a drink?” Tony says, eyeing the nearest table spread. “I’m up for refuelling.”

“I’m fine, thank you,” Steve says.

“Wasn’t asking you,” Tony says.

Steve raises an eyebrow. “That’s kind of rude.”

“Yeah, rude,” Morgan parrots, while Tony presses an outraged hand to chest. “He wants lemonade.”

“I would like lemonade,” Steve says agreeably.

“Geez, all right, as the lady demands,” Tony says as he bounds off.

“The lemonade’s good?” Steve asks Morgan.

Morgan shrugs. “I don’t know. We can try.”

Steve’s never held Morgan before, or talked to her properly before today, but this feels a natural extension of the rhythm he’s found again with Tony – the focus of shared goals and risks, the ribbing without hurt, the ability to be earnest without mockery – since that fateful day Tony rolled back up to the compound armed with little more than hope and a time travel GPS olive branch. But that’s not entirely right either, because they never had this easy rhythm off the battlefield before. It was only the shattering and its aftermath – and Steve’s learning the hard way that he had so much more to lose in the 21st century than he thought – that they’d found this.

“Are you staying here with your dad tonight?” Steve says. “Or are you going back with your mom?”

“Going,” Morgan says. “Too many people for sleepover.”

“Makes sense,” Steve agrees, looking out on the raucous mass with her. “It’s a lot of people. Do you remember everyone’s names?”

“Yes,” Morgan says, intense and offended. She presses a palm against Steve’s forehead. “Captain Thor.”

“Actually—”

“Captain Thor with the hammer. May I see it? Thank you.”

“You’re not tired of that,” Steve says dryly.

“No.”

“You know you can just ask actual Thor—”

“Captain Thor.”

Steve sighs dramatically, which only prompts Morgan to loop both arms around his neck expectantly. He does a quick surroundings check –Thor’s just a couple of feet away chatting with T’Challa and Hope, and Tony’s coming back over with a paper plate of pizza on one hand and a pair of lemonade bottles gripped in the other – and lifts his free hand.

Physically, it’s very different from the control he exerts on the shield. Mentally, the two are strangely similar, for much like how Steve just knows the shield’s trajectory at each throw, he knows that Mjolnir is coming to him. Today, the hammer sails in a parabolic arc, over the crowd spread over the lawn, and into Steve’s hand. There’s only a minor crackle of electricity in Steve’s hand when it lands, and it says a lot about the people present that barely anyone notices any of this.

Morgan bobs her head silently in approval.

Nearby, Tony huffs under his breath between bites of his pizza. The lemonade bottles are consigned to the table by Steve's plate, though sadly Steve's hands are preoccupied at the moment.

“Which reminds me,” Tony says, “no way that was your first time holding the hammer.”

“I’m sure I don’t know what you’re talking about,” Steve replies, twirling said hammer on its handle.

“Right.” Tony holds out a mushroom slice to Morgan, who eats it without taking her eyes of the hammer. Tony’s smile is pure fondness, the kind of which sends somewhat intense flips in Steve’s stomach. It doesn’t matter that the smile is for Morgan; it just takes Steve’s breath away that Tony has so much love in him and, no matter that things didn’t shake out too well with Pepper, he still has unconditional outlets for that love. When Tony’s attention shifts to Steve, so does his expression to one of familiar wryness, “You knew exactly how to double-wield the hammer with the shield.”

Steve hums neutrally.

“How long you been messing with the hammer without us knowing, Steve?” Tony says.

“How long, Steve?” Morgan chimes in.

“Just a few times, back when we were in the Tower. Which was wrong of me,” Steve says meaningfully to Morgan. “You shouldn’t keep big things like that from your friends.”

Morgan’s focus is elsewhere, though. She’s twisting her mouth in cheeky thoughtfulness – she definitely got that from Tony – and holds a hand out. Steve obliges, and adjusts his grip on Mjolnir before holding the handle out to her.

Morgan tentatively wraps one hand around the handle. Steve eases his grip to the back of Mjolnir’s head, and subtly moves the hammer along with her.

“Worthy,” Morgan whispers.

Steve, grinning, slants a look over at her father and winks.

Tony startles and drops his pizza slice. Not the ground, which would have been neater, but to his shirt, at which the slice flips and flops while Tony scrambles, flails and fumbles, getting sauce and cheese everywhere, before finally salvaging it by stuffing the whole thing into his mouth.

“Butterfingers,” Morgan says primly.

Tony munches furiously, and does not look at either of them. While his daughter continues to bob Mjolnir against Steve’s hand, Steve’s captivated by the pink at Tony’s neck – a lack of sunscreen, or something else? It cannot be something else, because that would be ludicrous. Except.

“Goddamn,” Tony mutters. His eyes dart around wildly, and only for a mere split-second land on Steve before moving away again. Steve feels a prickle up his spine, along with a sense of anticipation and urgency, though without a clear goal to be seen. He’s seen Tony flustered before, but never like this, never because of him.

“Gotta clean up. You watch the madame, yeah?” Tony clears his throat and starts walking away from them, stiff footsteps towards the house.

Steve watches him go, heart hammering loudly over Morgan’s humming a tune to herself.

A shadow falls over them as Bruce approaches. “Excuse me,” Bruce says. “Hi Morgan, do you want another ride?”

“Yesssss.” Morgan lifts her hands up eagerly.

While Bruce sweeps Morgan up onto a massive bicep, Thor appears by Steve’s other side, a hand immediately clamping around Mjolnir. “I’ll take that.”

“And I,” Natasha says, sliding around all three men to take Steve’s plate from the table, “will take care of this.”

“What?” Steve says.

The three of them pointedly move away from him, focused on and chatting with Morgan as they go. Steve’s head swivels back and forth and back, before a sharp oh sends his limbs into action, pushing him into a quick jog that follows Tony’s path up to the house.

Tony’s already inside, having disappeared behind the front door. The whole house technically isn’t off-limits to guests, but FRIDAY has been pretty stern about who gets to come in (and even then, only because the garden bathrooms are occupied). She doesn’t say a word when Steve enters, though, so he follows the sound of running water to the kitchen, where Tony is washing his hands in the sink.

“Like an amateur, really,” Tony says under his breath.

“Hey,” Steve says, which doesn’t get much of a response beyond Tony’s increasingly furious scrubbing of his hands. “You want me to get a change of shirt for you?”

“Right,” Tony says, “because you know where my wardrobe is.”

Steve’s face grows warm, but he presses on, compelled by Tony’s not immediately kicking him out. “Would you buy that as a poor excuse to explore your house? Which is very nice, by the way.”

Tony mumbles under his breath. Frowning he may be, but he isn’t actually angry. Steve unfortunately knows what Tony’s anger looks like, and this is more embarrassed annoyance. Tony turns off faucet off and scowls when Steve offers him a drying cloth. He still takes it, though, and after drying his hands, dabs it at his stained shirt.

“Be careful,” Steve says, “your arm—”

“Oh my god, you can’t quit!” Tony exclaims. “You do not know how to quit! Wait, I shouldn’t be surprised by that.”

“Are you upset at me? Morgan’s with Bruce, I didn’t abandon her—”

“Why are you like this now?” Tony’s voice is shrill. “Why are you so wonderful now? Morgan can’t get enough of you, which is bad enough, but now the fight’s over and we did what we needed to do, and you’re still so—you’re so…”

“I���m sorry,” Steve says quietly. “I know, I should’ve done better by you from the very start. But I’m trying, I’m really—”

“That’s not what I…” Tony shakes his head, a rapid side-to-side motion as though the man’s deeply rattled and has to express it physically. He sighs, the sound resigned and exasperated; it’s apparently a prelude to his tossing the dry cloth away and launching himself at Steve.

Tony’s lips are warm and soft and taste of tomato sauce. Steve doesn’t kiss back, too shocked as he is by the motion at all, which is over before he can even process it. His mouth tingles with the aftertaste, and the rest of him tingles at the depth of Tony’s wide eyes, filled as they are with hope and fear and surprise. Steve’s heart goes into double-time.

“Uh,” Tony says.

Steve kisses back. His hands find Tony’s cheeks, his palms brushing Tony’s facial hair in holding him close. Tony’s hands come to Steve’s waist, fingers digging in to the muscle as though making sure that he’s really there. Steve presses in, breathing rapidly through his nose as he does, and finds Tony’s mouth hot and wet and open.

In the deepening of the kiss comes a collective cosmic exhale. There will have to be talking later, which may help slow the dizzy, confused, ecstatic whirl that is in Steve’s brain, but that is later. For now he’s been given a gift, and he is not strong enough to not grab at it with both hands.

“Gonna mess up your shirt—” Tony says against Steve’s jaw.

“Priorities,” Steve says sternly. He comes back in for another kiss and Tony hums an agreement against his lips.

Playboy Pt. 1

The pics are of what Yuridia's suit looks like of course along with one of the inspirations for her looks alongside Sasha Montenegro & Rossy Mendoza, Turkan Soray.

As ever, forever editing...

Might alter or change the title...

Please be kind...

Let me know what you think!

Enjoy!

...

Late 1972

London, England

...

"Hold still!" The Bunny Mother instructed as she did her best to help her new charge into a black suit. The suit was new in a sense, and similarly, so was the bunny. 18 and a new recruit. She had just come from Los Angeles with a rather unusual name. Yuridia. Yuridia Garcia. Her full name was impossibly long as she herself had admitted. Hearing it once made Joan's head spin & her jaw drop in shock. It was like one of those names straight out of a Spanish drama or swashbuckler. Thankfully Yuridia wasn't offended. She just laughed it off.

She had been sent over for a short while to pad out the holiday shift & to allow Yuridia a chance to show her full potential as opposed to having her options limited in terms of hours & places in the club she was allowed to work as she would otherwise have faced at home due to her young age.

At first Joan didn't understand why they didn't just tell the shy, soft-spoken child with the admittedly terribly sweet, soft accent to come back in three years when they could use her to her best advantage in the LA club...

Save her the trip...

Pick someone else...

And then she met her...

And dressed her...

"Won't need these..." Joan teased as she removed the stuffing & padding from the cups of the suit. A lot of bunnies secretly padded. It was no big deal. A big secret kept from the public...

But no big deal...

The bunny bodice held and hid a multitude of sins...

Not that Miss Garcia had much to atone for at the ripe old age of barely 18...

Still...

You'd be surprised what a suit like the bunny suit could do for a girl's figure...

Across all sorts of body types...

Like it was made out of magic & fairy dust instead of just satin & stays...

Joan had seen it herself firsthand...

And right now even without the padding - admittedly unnecessary on Yuridia - the suit was still working it's insane, inconceivable magic...

Emphasizing every last one of her curves & her mile long legs to full effect!

It was doing her all kinds of favors whether she needed it or not!

Every. Last. Favor. On. Earth!

As Joan fastened the suit around her newest charge, who would be known as "Bunny Yuri" to the patrons of the London club, Yuridia herself fixed her cuffs. She made sure that the Playboy Bunny logos on the cufflinks faced each other when she put her wrists together as was the rule. Made sure the bunnies kissed" as was the rule. "Kissing Bunny cufflinks" was just one of many little details that had to be filled out just so. And she knew failure to do so would result in warnings, admonishments & demerits. Another such detail was daintily perched ears which seemed to "quirk" just so. This was the next thing Yuridia handled as Joan handled yet another detail. Fluffing her bunny tail. Yuridia cast a shy smile in the mirror at Joan, nodding a polite. "Thanks..."

"Any time, luv. It's my job..." Came the reply based in soft laughter.

This shy little thing. What kind of a bunny would she make out there?

Yuridia then gazed in the mirror to inspect her reflection as suddenly another bunny burst through the room.

"Yuri! You're working the VIP room with me and Diana right?" It was Bunny Kitty, panting in breathless excitement for God knows what reason.

"Yes, of course. Although I have a short shift tonight. I worked a split today. Why? Is anything the matter? Any problems? Anything wrong, Kitty? Any changes?" Yuridia gazed at her breathless friend curiously.

"No... Nothing's the matter... Nothing's wrong... No changes..." Kitty sighed after a drink of water, finally calming down. "It's just that we got some very, VERY important people that are being put into your section right now. VVIP... VVVIP!..."

"Oh? Anyone I oughta know, luv?" Joan asked as she made the last few adjustments to "Yuri's" suit.

"Or me? Even though I'm new here and not from around. Or are they more locally known & famous?" Yuridia asked.

"Oh no! No! No! No, they're definitely well known... Internationally known... Internationally famous... Or infamous..." Kitty giggled. "And you DEFINITELY should have heard of them by now!..." I'm not sure if I oughta tell you or just let you go out & find out yourself..."

"Not sure if I should even ask... I'm a little scared now with how you've talked of them..." Yuridia laughed before asking. "Can I at least ask this? How many are there?"

"Four..." Kitty replied in an awed hush, fighting back a squeal as she clenched her fists.

"Well by that reaction, Kit, I have to ask... Is it the Beatles? Have they decided to reform?" She teased.

"Noooo... But you're on the right track... Not the worst guess you could have made.

"Oh wow... That big?... That famous?... That popular?..."

"Just about..." Kitty smiled.

"Mmmm... I see..." Yuridia hesitated, nerves starting to get the better of her momentarily, prompting her to come up with a proposition. "Are you gonna shadow me then? Make sure I don't mess up? Or do you just want to take my table? I take yours? Who knows? They might like you better..." She teased hoping that she could play her nerves off well enough.

"I'd love to! But I can't... The floor manager would have my neck!" She laughed, rubbing the back of her neck for emphasis.

"Did you greet them for me? Tell them I'll be right with them? After I finish getting dressed I mean..." Yuridia laughed nervously.

Kitty nodded. "I did. Though I didn't exactly go into specifics of course." She grinned, motioning to Yuridia in her suit. "Not that I think that they'd have minded of course! But of course that would be against policy so... Your secret is safe with me." She laughed.

"Ohhh... Kitty..." Yuridia gave Kitty a playful shove as she began to blush slightly.

Kitty laughed again. "Why on earth are you so shy? How on earth were you hired if you blush at the drop of a hat?"

Joan swatted at Kitty playfully. "Don't scold her! She can't help it! Besides... You know the boys out there might actually like that... They might get a kick out of it!..."

Yuridia turned to glance at Joan as best as she could without disrupting her work adjusting her suit again. "I assume you have experience... With them?"

Kitty leant in to whisper something to Joan, making her gasp. Yuridia swore she heard a "it's..." or "they're...". Spilling the beans on the mystery patrons' identity apparently as Joan & Kitty both nodded in reply.

"You bet, honey. And they have plenty experience with us. And others!" Kitty grinned.

"Well then, you two!" Joan cut in after giving Yuridia's suit one last tug upwards & her tail one last fluff. "Why don't you be off then! So Kitty you can SHOW our little miss "Bunny Yuri" her patrons for the evening! Now be off you two! Shoo, shoo, shoo!" She laughed.

The laughter was echoed by Kitty who took Yuridia by hand as she thanked Joan one last time & lead her out of the dressing room & through the long corridor to the main floor.

"Kitty..." Yuridia hushed.

"Mmmm?" Came the response.

"Can't I get one last clue? Please? Just one little one?" Yuridia pleaded.

"Can't wait till we get out on the floor & to our section?" Kitty asked with a playful smile.

"Mmm-mm..." Yuridia shook her head.

Kitty just laughed. "Alright then... Here... Shine your light on these..." She paused just a few steps from the entrance to the main hall & presented her cuffed wrists, "kissing bunny cufflinks" and all. But the kissing bunnies weren't meant to be the focal point...

Nor were they...

For as Yuridia shone her little mini flashlight down on Kitty's cuffs she noticed something for the first time...

Kitty's cuffs were no longer pure white...

They were marred...

Marked...

Scribbled on...

Written on...

Yuridia was just barely able to make out four distinct signatures...

But she didn't trust what she saw...

Or what she thought she saw...

"Kitty..." She hushed.

"Uh-huh..." Came the slyly smiling reply.

"Kitty...

Kitty...

Kitty, these are...

These are...

These are...

Am...

Am...

Am...

Am I reading this right?...

Like am I seeing things correctly?..."

"What do you see, "Yuri"?" Kitty teased.

"I dunno...

I almost don't trust myself to read this right..."

Kitty just laughed & pointed across the room to their section. There... Tucked away in a booth... Signing the cuffs for a gaggle of other giddy bunnies were four men... Not just any men... This Yuridia knew as her eyes fell on each member & the accompanying matching scrawled signature flashed in her head in time...

For there...

Tucked away in the comfy dark confines of a booth...

In her section were...

John Paul Jones...

John Bonham...

Robert Plant...

Jimmy Page...

All four internationally popular, famous - and yes Kitty was right, INFAMOUS - members of one of one of the biggest groups on the scene at the time...

LED ZEPPELIN!!!!!

"Oh my God..."

ATEEZ “The Expedition Tour” Hi-Touch in LA

okay so by now I’m sure everyone has heard of the mess that was the concert itself, so I won’t go into too much detail on that. mmt really screwed over a lot of fans though between introducing a vvip package a week before the concert, not offering vip perks to those with vip tickets but to those with the limited vvip package that had no announcement, among the mess that was the queue numbers, and them and the globe not knowing how to direct people or putting in minimal effort to help people. I don’t even want to go into details on the fact that they overbooked the venue so bad that the pit was full to the point where, when hongjoong and staff asked us to back up, people were hitting the back wall and being forced into the lobby area to stand? I also heard those that fainted or left from overheating were denied re-entrance “for their safety.” so there goes $135 down the drain for some... I felt super guilty towards the boys, you could tell they had no clue what to do and were so concerned. not only that but the globe was a terrible venue? the stage was at eye level, so you literally couldn’t see a thing. it didn’t help that there wasn’t a policy against no recording, so with the limited view you really could see absolutely nothing when everyone’s phones went up. I’m not sure if it was a booking availability thing but if kq wanted to go with a small venue, they should’ve chosen the novo (same occupancy size but the stage placement is much better) like they had zico perform at. it was the first stop of the tour so I’m not surprised it was a mess? I expected the pushing, etc, especially as a veteran kpop fan and knowing a lot of the people there were at least 5 years younger than me and for many it was their first concert. slightly disappointed, of course, but it’s not ateez’s fault. it’s solely on mmt and the globe. I urge atiny going to the other stops though, don’t push and be kind to each other. work together, because mmt is just in it for the money. but anyway! they’ll be back! hopefully at a better venue and with a better tour management team so I can try again in the future. below the cut is my hi-touch experience, which made up for a bunch of this mess c:

okay so sonia (@atiteez) and I have a bit of a discrepancy on the middle of the line, as it was an entire blur. I thought it went by age order??? but maybe I’m wrong adklfjsd sonia said woosan was next to each other but I literally thought I saw wooyoung and then jongho but akdjf;lkjsdf I don’t know anymore... I do not know... I’ll just do this by age order. we descended the stairs and immediately sonia went, “oh, he’s first,” and stepped behind me and so, guess who lost their nerve for the rest of the line? because hongjoong was right there? that’s right, this girl! me! lmfao ugh him being first set me up for disaster for the rest of the line. I want to preface this by saying that they are all so humble and kind? each one of them said thank you before I could even speak. each member I stepped up to said thank you to me as I did so. all of their hands/skin were very soft, too, not even kidding. HONGJOONG: in the short amount of space between the stairs and the table line up that had to be crossed I turned back to sonia and was like “why am I going first?” because I told her, if he was first, she had to go first!! (cough traitor) anyway I didn’t have much time to freak out because the line had to keep moving and by that time, hongjoong had finished with the fan in front of me and had looked over at me and I was like well this is it, this is how I go- but honestly hongjoong screams Soft Boy Vibes!! he emanates gentleness, and kindness, and softness. he said thank you immediately as I stepped forward to high five his hand, and I really quickly told him, “no thank you so much,” then I just kind of blanked out and stared at him for a brief moment and left my hand there so he wrapped his fingers around mine and bye if I was trying to say anything at that point, it really was gone. but I managed to get my brain to function enough to lightly squeeze his hand back. his voice sounds exactly the same in person! he really is a kind soul though. his entire demeanor was just soft and kind, his gaze was kind and he had the sweetest smile on his face. he’s tanner in person than in pictures, his mullet looked great, his jawline and nose are really pronounced, and he has the prettiest eyes. and he made eye contact so. brain malfunction from rainah! his hands are about the same size as mine so, not actually a smol boy but we’ll just keep calling him that lol. his fingers are slender though and he had a very gentle touch. SEONGHWA: so seonghwa this precious bub was linking fingers with atiny that went by but you typically aren’t supposed to do that at hi-touches typically? and so I got really nervous and only partially linked fingers with him and he did the same and kind of gave my hand a soft little shake back and forth and said thank you. his voice was pretty deep!! with him too I forgot what I was going to say, mostly because he tripped me up by linking fingers like that? I kind of stared at our hands then stared at him in surprise because I really didn’t want anyone to get in trouble? but he had the sweetest most understanding expression on his face? so I think he kind of knew that I was nervous or that atiny would be nervous. his entire demeanor screams kindness, though!!! even when I stared at him in surprise he had that gentle look on his face. and he had a really gorgeous smile. he’s also much tanner in person than some of the pictures show him to be, and holy cow pictures don’t actually do him justice. he’s really handsome up close. his hands are much larger than I was expecting? they’re masculine, kind of broad but his fingers are long. his touch was really light and gentle. YUNHO: this is the only member... I said the thing I wanted to say to... and I probably shouldn’t have with him because he’s one of the least fluent in english and I think I completely surprised him?? LOL oops I’m so sorry yunho akdlfj;sd. he said hi and thank you and his voice sounds exactly the same in person, too. yunho is like a tall gentle giant I definitely looked up at him. his hands were large but his fingers were long and slender. we kind of did a weird half high-five half lightly held hands thing as I went by. he’s one of the members that it looks like someone cut him out of the pictures and placed in right in front of me... just... the epitome of perfection. he has very strong Soft Boy vibes and very strong Boyfriend vibes. I was really nervous when I made eye contact with him because his eyes were so round and large and pretty and just akdljf;ds it melted my heart he looks like a giant soft puppy! and so I randomly blurted out, “I really like your dancing!” at the last second when he smiled and when I was almost completely passed and he looked back at me and his eyes widened and he went, “oh? thank you!” and smiled but he looked so confused lmao. YEOSANG: tbh yeosang’s interaction was a blur to me because I was still thinking of how I possible made yunho malfunction with Too Much English akd;fjlksdjf but he was a whole entire cutie? he is GORGEOUS in person and his eyes are so pretty!! and he had the brightest smile on his face that just lit up his entire expression. he really looked so happy to be interacting with atiny. as I stepped up he said thank you and bowed slightly. I don’t know what was happening to my brain at this point but I kind of was Gone because I lightly high fived him and quickly moved on and he was one of the members I really wanted to talk to because that boy is so precious and has so many worries!! cries... his hands were larger than I was expecting? but they weren’t that big because they were kind of slender. his high five was very dainty and cute just like him! SAN: okay this is where the line starts to become a blur and sonia said woosan was next to each other but, I interacted with san so quickly that?? I couldn’t honestly tell you what portion of the line he was in anyway. I’m going to be honest I don’t remember much of san. he seemed so tired after the events of the night and just kind of seemed out of it. we thanked each other as I stepped up but all we did was lightly high five. he bowed very slightly and he did smile enough that his cheeks dimpled, which were super cute!!! but the smile didn’t really quite seem to reach his eyes so I just :((( moved on... poor baby boy was just... akdjlf;jsfd I wanted to hug him he looked so out of it. MINGI: HE SCREAMS BIG GIANT BABY!!! OH MY GOD??? mingi in real life is literally mingi in the vlives we watch lmao. he has so much energy and he’s just very LOUD even when he isn’t doing anything? he had the biggest smile on his face and it just took over his entire demeanor and his entire face, his eyes were squinting he was smiling so huge!! his hand was.... huge... like yunho is the taller of the two tall boys but mingi’s hands were broader and larger. he’s the softest boy and I am by no means intimidated by him but I was intimidated by the sheer size of his hand? and he was linking fingers with atiny too as they went by, but I didn’t realize it until later because oh my god I was so surprised by the size of his hand!!! he had his palm out and ready to go, though, fingers spread wide (to be linked with which I didn’t know LOL) and me, intimidated by the size of his hand, just quickly high fived him and said thank you and skittered along!!! he sounded really happy when he said hello and thank you to me and was so excited and his voice is as deep in person as it is in the videos. I remember thinking his nose was really handsome up close but features wise I don’t remember much besides the fact that he has the ability to smile with his entire body. WOOYOUNG: I thought wooyoung was after mingi but?? like I said it was all a blur, either way my hand was hovering in the air already when I got to wooyoung and this boy just... absolutely and literally leaned forward to high five my hand and then take hold of it as I passed by??????? if I was going to say anything to him at all it completely left my brain at that point part of me was in shock he just, did that, and the other part of me was scared of getting in trouble?? I was just like “oh that’s a thing that happened?” he did bow as he took my hand and as he did so he kind of looked up at me when he said his thank you and wow his eyes... are so gorgeous? they’re kind of sparkly?? I’m not wooyoung biased but I swooned! either way I did mange to hold his hand back and he gently shook it back and forth a bit. he said thank you as he had high fived my hand originally and his voice is very light and airy. up close he’s very handsome!!! like, insanely so!! his pictures don’t do him justice because all his features are much more defined in person but also it’s like someone cut him out of a picture and put him in front of me he’s absolutely perfect. his nose? is beautiful? he had a lot of excitement pent up in him and you could tell he was really enjoying everything, you could just see how excited he was from his demeanor. he’s actually around the same height as hongjoong, so shorter than I was expecting, maybe an inch or two difference but I didn’t notice small details like that. his hands though were very masculine and broad, his fingers thicker than seonghwa’s but not as long? his touch was very gentle though, despite like... grabbing my hand... JONGHO: he is a soft precious baby boy whom we must protect at all costs!!! he said thank you as I stepped up and he makes the most intense eye contact with you? I thought the way he looked at atinys at fansigns would be just a fansign thing but he makes sure you know you feel loved like that boy just akdjf;sldjfsd. he’s so handsome in person? tan and broad shouldered and?? the most sparkly and prettiest eyes???? he’s literally. so handsome. pictures don’t do him justice in any way shape or form. I was hoping by the time I got to jongho I could at least tell him something but that boy has some insane Visuals and my brain noped the fuck out. he was really respectful, too!! as he was giving high fives he had his free hand held across his abdomen (which is an etiquette thing in korea) and he gave a small little bow. he said hello and thank you and when he high fived my hand he also took hold of it briefly and kind of gave it a little tiny shake. his voice is... I don’t know how to describe his voice in person but it’s as attractive as he is.

Okay, here's the deal. I feel like saying a few of my thoughts on the Seungri issue. It will most likely make some people angry & I may lose followers over it. But I'm to the point that I'm very “whatever” about this whole mess and the division it's brought to the VIP fandom.

Let me start by saying that I am neither OT5 nor OT4. I am VIP and I will support Bigbang in whatever form it exists. Which, in my opinion, right now is 4. Seungri withdrew himself from the group, from YG, and from the entertainment industry as a whole. You might not like that or agree with it, but it was his choice to make.

Now for the bigger issues at hand...

I don't really mind the prostitution. As long as they were legally of age and were willing participants, then I believe that a woman's right to her body is her own. If she chooses to sell sex for money, that's none of my business. So, no... I don't care if Seungri bought sexual services, either for himself or for others. Of course, it is still illegal and he should be punished for breaking the law, but it isn't a big enough of a deal for me to hate him for it.

I also don't mind the embezzlement or tax evasion issues. Again, he still did it & should be held accountable for that. But, I'm sure that almost all the large businesses do it & it's not enough for me to call for his head on a pike.

Admission of minors into Burning Sun/Arena/Monkey Museum? Eh, it happens everywhere. Not enough for me to warrant the electric chair.

Police/Government Official bribery? Yeah, it's a big deal. Yeah, he should pay up if guilty. Nope... not enough for me to wish capital punishment upon him.

It does upset me that he knew what kind of things his friends in the group chat were up to & seemingly did not speak up against it. It's not his place to police his associates, but I still would have expected something beyond, “Stop it, you'll get in trouble.” or telling them to delete chats & switch phones. I would go so far as to say that he's an accessory after the fact. And, while I'm disappointed that he did not report his friends to authorities, I can also see why he didn't. After all, he was a member of that chat & if he was also up to his neck in shady business dealings and hookers, then he wouldn't want to report anything to the police... no matter how fucked up it was. So, yes... disappointing, but understandable. Still not enough for me to “cancel” him.

Only two things about this really, really bother me.

The drug dealing in Burning Sun.

The supposed things that went on with some VVIP members of the club.

Now, if you are not up to date on those topics, I will not be getting into the details of it here.  Suffice it to say that it's extremely fucked up. And if Seungri knew, in depth, about either of those things... then yes, I would get behind the crowd that wants him to pay dearly. (Especially the VVIP stuff. My god, I had nightmares about that shit after reading what supposedly went on.)

Like, I'm sure that he knew drugs and sex were going down.  It is a club, after all. But if he knew the depth of the depravity... damn.

The bad thing is, that we will most likely never know for sure.

I mean... you can say, “Well of course he knew what was going on! It was his club. He was a manager!” OR you can say, “He was a major celebrity! There's no way that he was involved in the day to day operations. He wouldn't have had time for that!” I can see both sides of the argument as being a possibility. And, lord knows, that he's not going to be forthcoming with information about it any time soon.

On a personal level, I am done with the man. He hurt his brothers with his selfishness. He hurt my daughter with his actions. He hurt my fandom with his carelessness.

That being said... I don't agree with trying to erase him from Bigbangs history. That's just silly, in my opinion. He was there & was an integral part of the group. Trying to act as if he never existed is futile and childish. As for me, I have come to separate the art from the artist. I will not let him diminish my love for their music & personalities.

I also see a lot of people trying to read things into past statements from members of Bigbang. And, while I do agree with the majority of you, that there was some major shade being thrown Seungri's way, some of y'all are delusional with the “interpretations” you are trying to push. It's like full blown fucking conspiracy level bullshit. Seriously, we will not know how the others feel until such time as they choose to make a statement about it. Stop peddling your little theories around! It's just making things worse.

Also, people really need to educate themselves about this issue and Korean judicial process before they blindly speak out about things or attack other people. (I'm talking beyond AKP,  Soompi & Kpop Twitter.) If I see one more post about Seungri's arrest warrant being rejected & the police announcing that they won't seek another so that proves that he's innocent... I'm gonna scream. Pre-trial detainment warrant. Look it up. (For the record, I actually agree with the judges decision on that one.)

What angers me is a lot of the media coverage. There are way more important things going on here than anything that Seungri did. High ranking government official cover-ups (tied to both the former and current Presidents), rampant police corruption, Chaebols getting away with some pretty scary shit. Non-celebrities tied in with the group chat that were disturbingly depraved. (I'm looking at you Mr.  Kim) Group chats of reporters spreading the videos from the “molka” group chat and making fun of the victims. And other Kpop idols that were engaged in activities that, at least at first glance, seem to be way worse than anything that Seungri was involved in.

And yet, all the media wants to talk about is Seungri. Why? Because it sells.

It's disgusting.

They put his name into headlines where it doesn't even belong just for clickbait. The story isn't remotely about him, and yet, his name is thrown into the mix. That's not journalism. It's sensationalism. There's almost no coverage of the stories that really matter! I don't know why I expected better...

Lastly, I will say that I like to think that almost everyone is redeemable. Everyone is human & everyone makes mistakes. The same is true of Seungri. (Unless of course  it is proven that he knew about the VVIP stuff. In that case, eff him.) But it's my personal belief that the man is a sociopath & he needs help. It is my hope for him that can see what he's done (to himself and others), admit his wrongdoing, and get some professional help so that he can grow as a person and move on into a better life.

I wish peace upon all the victims in this mess, both the physical victims (group chat victims, VVIP/Drug victims) and the emotional ones (Bigbang members and VIPs).

I hope we can all heal & move on from this at our own pace.

[suggable]

HI! long post ahead! I just really want to write down the Day6 concert because I don’t ever want to forget this night hjsdkfld!!! 

Soooo in spite of the awful organization and long wait I can certainly say this has been one of my favourite concerts EVER like seriously pls if you like Day6 try to attend one of their concerts because hOLY SHIT and if you don’t like them idk what!! are you doing!! with your life !!!

That being said I’m gonna complain for a bit here. Just about a couple of things so bear with me (and as a psa for mydays attending other future concerts in Europe) So, the ticket sales....Idk if this depends on the venue or the concert managment aka mymusictaste but! I don’t think it’s normal that out of a total of 1000-1500 tickets max 400+ tickets were VVIP and about 500 tickets were VIP...like what’s the point of having VIP in the first place then? I didn’t care that much bc mine was just VIP but I guess someone that has spent 160 euros on a VVIP wouldn’t be happy to know there were other 350 people before them! PLus idk how the high touch went but do you expect the artists to meet 400 people? Insane and absurd...

Second issue was the queuing system. an absolute mess....so this “fanbase” (aka a popular twitter account) decided to organise an unofficial queuing system before the actual official venue organised queue...so we got a number drawn on the hand and VVIP and VIP got separated even though we both had the same early entrance...so VVIP got preference...and then we had to wait for the official numbered bracelets but of course they didn’t match the previously assigned numbers bc that’s what happens when you use a marker for numbering...such a big mess so so stupid BUT WHILE WE WERE WAITING WE CAUGHT A GLIMPSE oF YOUnGK insideTHE VAN ALL OF A SUDDEN NO ONE WAS EXPECTING IT AND I DIDN’T REACT FOR A FULL 5 SECS LIKE IT WAS A FUCKING VISION AND THEN IT WAS LIKE WOAH WAS THAT YOUNGK??!! so yeah worth the wait

anyway! after all the waiting (in the cold by a river for hours RIP my throat) we got a fairly good spot inside, just about 7-8 meters from the stage and thank god I’m kinda tall jhhjdjs we got a somewhat centered spot, like in between Sungjin and Jae. So the whole concert was AMAZING THEIR ENERGY THEIR TALENT THEIR VOCALS THEIR VISUALS THEY’RE SO FRIENDLY AND NICE AND WARM AND FUNNY AND GORGEOUS AND I LOVE THEM SO MUCH AHHHHJKDSL

About the members! Wonpil is the sweetest boy in the universe!!! Like he was so so nice during his ment ahhh it was such a shame bc he was the furthest to the right from us so we couldn’t see him all the time but wow his vocals!! and his fucking piano skills what a GOD what a cutie I adore him!! i’m sad I didn’t get to see more of him but he was so far T_T

then YoungK...what a man...like he looks unreal seriously..his nose omg his skin looks like porcelain! and those moves I’m deceased...also he has this really intense stare and whenever he looked in our general direction...chills but then he has the kindest smile the dUALITY also his bass skills are seriously good and his smooth dancing and his improvisation and he was so so hyped during the last part and smiling non stop!! and of course he had to talk about food during his ment akjsfjkkj he said he’d loved paella and jamón de bellota fskdjbkj

Dowoon is the cutest boy on earth pls he was so smiley and happy all the time and mouthing along the lyrics and his ears were so so red how cute is he!!! and he was so happy when we hyped him!! also he is INSANELY TALENTED like the way he plays the drums!! I wanna cry he’s so good! he was super cute during his ment ahhh

Jae is The Man...he was so so hyped all the time and so happy and would interact a lot with us and seemed to have such a great time ahhh he’s so nice also mad improvisation skills wow and his voice is so dreamy!! he said he was really impressed with us and the way we shouted and he said several times he was having the greatest time!! what a nice guy I want to be his friend so badly

And I’ve left Sungjin for last because this man has wrecked me jdknsal like for real I had the visual of the 5 of them most of the time but my eyes were glued to him!! he is fucking gorgeous someone help me!! his expressions while singing! the way he would smile at us while scanning the audience ahh his fucking raspy voice!! HIS EYES ARE SO SHINNY and they hold all the galaxies ahhhh to sum everything up i’m so fucking in love with this guy and when I thought it couldn’t get worse he gOT SO EMOTIONAL WHEN WE SANG HAPPY BDAY AND THEN AGAIN DURING THE MENT and HE WAS ABOUT TO CRY and i was tearing up too because he seemed so genuinely touched like he wasn’t expecting this at all and I love him so much!!! definitely new bias 

so yeah it was a great concert and so long too!! like 3 hours but it felt so short and i had so so much fun!!! and they’re amazing and they loved us and i hope they come back soon and i’m so thankful i got to see them and hope everyone enjoys their concerts as much as I have!!! also i don’t want to spoil anything but the setlist is very well thought like they combine songs by mood! 

omg this is so long and I could still keep talking but i’m drained !! i really wanted to write it down bc I need to remember everything!!!
