You can hate snail games without shitting on ark. Just saying.
Snail games is fucking awful. Utter dogshit, terrible company that deserves to go under but hating ark because of their actions is just childish.
Ark is wildcards game. Not snails. Snail didn't create ark, ark was made by a group of passionate developers who wanted to make something. I'm not saying it's like that now, and I'm not saying wildcard is flawless, but they are doing their best. They are fighting against a shitty company like snail to keep nfts and microtransactions out of the game while dealing with fuckwads sending them and their families death threats over a dinosaur game.
Hoping that asa, ark 2, and ase fail, 'boycotting' it, and sending people death threats because a bad company is taking advantage of a game studio and their game is dumb as hell and makes you look like a whiny bitch.
#ark se#ark survival ascended#snail games#again#not saying ark is perfect. I've been quite disappointed with a lot of their recent decisions#but I haven't lost hope yet and Im not just going to abandon the game over them#And a lot of wcs decisions can be summed up to heat from snail games#asa#studio wildcard#spookt xt#ark stuff

My friends and I are talking about how games are just dogshit and non-optimal nowadays, and I think the solution is to just go back to making games a physical media again. Limited size, forces you to clean/optimize your code, and doesn't absolutely eat your computer to install it.
Sure, games will be shorter, or look "worse"- but if developers lack the creativity to work around that, maybe they need to rethink their approach to games, you now? How integral is it to your first person shooter for it to look like the real thing? Can your game possibly function without taking up 100+GB on my computer? Why not? If your game was sold on a disc, it was sold as a finished product, or not at all.
As convenient as digital copies has been, I think stepping back from it to return to physical media should be an important step in getting games to be a functional medium again. I shouldn't have to update my computer's storage every 2 years or otherwise keep installing and uninstalling games that I can't even be certain I'll still own down the line.
#nan rambles#when you had to fit everything on a CD you were FORCED to work within restrictions and that meant you had to do the best you could#with the limits you had#You couldn't afford to be lazy or slow about it unless you wanted production to take forever#if you wanted to add a brontosaurus to your game you had to add it out the gate AND NOT MAKE IT A 7GB UPDATE WILDCARD STUDIOS#I'M LOOKING AT YOU YOU FUCKWITS YOU'RE THE MOST GUILTY PARTY I KNOW#not the only but the worst example of it#Nintendo shouldn't have to tell you that your game's too big to even consider having on their system#without you going to a third party to fix your game

Souls of the Ark: Brutal Boss Battles in Ark 2 Gameplay

Introduction
Ark 2 gameplay
With the much awaited successor to “Ark: Survival Evolved,” Ark 2 which has vast open environments, demanding gameplay elements, and improved graphics, the survival game genre is primed for a revolution. In Ark 2 gameplay, a game created by Studio Wildcard, players are envelop in an immersive landscape with prehistoric species. To endure, players must depend on their intelligence, available resources, and specialized skills. Fans old and new will both enjoy Vin Diesel’s job as an executive director and well-known personality.
Better graphics and realism
Iconic elements of Ark 2 gameplay include its updated graphics engine, which promises realistic images. Using the latest Unreal Engine technology, the game has realistic character models, rich settings, and dynamic weather. World species like dinosaurs and other prehistoric animals are depicted with incredible detail. The visual fidelity boosts immersion and adds strategy as players explore a fully alive world.
Players can freely explore the expansive open environment in Ark 2 gameplay. Biomes with unique flora and fauna dot the gaming environment. Different habitats inspire exploration and discovery, from lush jungles to parched deserts. The game has a dynamic ecology where players and creatures alter it. Predators, weather, and natural disasters make survival difficult. This interconnected environment lends richness and insures unique playthroughs.
Crafting and Survival
The survival aspects of the first game are fundamentally retained in “Ark 2”. Building shelters, crafting tools and weapons, and gathering resources are all necessary for survival. Additional products and personalisation options are provided by expanded and improved crafting. In addition to developing technology and taming and riding dinosaurs, you may construct defensive bases. With the help of a skill tree, players can focus on combat, crafting, or exploration.
Plot, characters
More structure is added to “Ark 2″‘s story. Vin Diesel plays Santiago, a seasoned survivor with a mystery past, in the game‘s well-developed tale featuring dramatic sequences and voice acting. Exploration and character interaction reveal lore and plot components in the game universe. This narrative complexity makes the game more emotional and enticing for survival.
Community, multiplayer
The “Ark” experience revolves around multiplayer. Players can team up with friends or fight other tribes in Ark 2’s cooperative and competitive multiplayer modes. Dedicated servers and powerful community tools let gamers construct and run their own servers with custom rules and settings. Players can develop and share new creatures, equipment, maps, and game modes via mod support, extending the game‘s longevity.
AI and Animal Behaviour
In Ark 2 gameplay the AI and creature behaviour systems are much improved. Hunting in groups, caring for their young, and responding to dangers are more natural for dinosaurs and other species. Players must anticipate and adapt to creature behaviours with this upgraded AI, making environmental interactions more complex and rewarding. The upgraded AI lets human NPCs establish alliances, trade, and assault, adding complexity to the game.
Ecological Change and Dynamic Events
“Ark 2” emphasises dynamic occurrences and environmental interaction. Players can set traps or barriers to secure their bases. Games are unpredictable due to natural calamities, meteor showers, and seasonal variations, forcing participants to alter their methods. Players can find rare materials and secrets during these events.
Player Accessibility and Experience
The focus of Studio Wildcard’s Ark 2 gameplay. is on player experience and accessibility. With the game’s comprehensive instructions and adjustable difficulty settings, players of all skill levels may play. Simple controls and streamlined inventory management are examples of QoL features that allow players to concentrate on the immersion of the game without being sidetracked by gameplay mechanics. To address faults and enhance the game, the developers will also give frequent updates and welcome user feedback.
Tech Innovations and Potential
“Ark 2” is a technical first for the franchise. The visual and gameplay realism of survival games is enhanced by contemporary technology like as real-time ray tracing and intricate physics simulations. As the video game industry develops, “Ark 2” will be able to capitalise on new software and technology to maintain its position as the best in its genre. The game will keep gamers interested for years to come with downloadable content and updates.
Ark 2 release date
Ark 2, widely expected follow-up to Ark: Survival Evolved, is set to premiere December 13, 2024. Fans will have an interesting dinosaur survival game with improved visuals, new gameplay aspects, and a compelling narrative starring Vin Diesel on store. Fans of the franchise as well as experienced players should find the game which will be available on PC and Xbox series X|S an interesting trip.
Conclusion
The survival experience in Ark 2 gameplay is more active than in the first game. Amazing graphics, a big open world, well-polished gameplay, and an interesting story will make this game fun for both experienced and new gamers. While Vin Diesel gives the game a Hollywood feel, the clever AI and dynamic events make each playtime fresh and hard. At the rate Studio Wildcard is improving the game, Ark 2 gameplay could become a survival game classic.

MAYBE, BABY
Tattoo Artist!Yang Jeongin x Reader | Clean lines. Dirty talk. No strings. Lies.
🔞synopsis: Tattoo Artist AU. What started as a no-strings-attached hookup with your tattoo artist turns into something much messier—and much more intoxicating. You only wanted a rib tattoo. He only wanted a night. But from the moment Jeongin drags his fingers across your skin like he’s signing his name, the lines start to blur. And you let him. Again and again. Until something shifts. What was supposed to be a fuck-only situationship turns into something terrifyingly close to love.
💌a/n: I have no fucking idea how long this thing is. I blacked out while I was writing and organising the Ask Dump. I present to you a full-course meal with a side of feelings and a kiss on the forehead?? If you made it to the end, congratulations. You now have an Innie-sized corruption kink and a severe attachment issue. You’re welcome. Enjoy??? IDK??? I’m too far gone to process anything except the words “say my name again.” p.s. reblog if this fic ruined you. I wanna know who survived and who ascended. p.p.s. added my Spotify + Apple Music links on my pinned, just saying 😗 p.p.p.s. no strings, my ass. You’re mine now.
⚠️ warnings: NSFW / 18+ ONLY — DEADASS | MINORS DO NOT INTERACT. GO TO BED | Unprotected sex (wrap it irl) | Oral sex (m & f receiving) | Fingering, spit play | Face sitting, thigh riding | Degradation kink (light) | Praise kink (heavy) | Possessiveness / “mine” kink | Bratty teasing, power play | Multiple orgasms, overstimulation | Breathless, sweaty, studio sex | Aftercare (eventually… Jeongin learns) | Lowkey romantic shift under the filth | Explicit language | “No strings” turning into: oops, we’re emotionally attached now | ✨ Tattoo shop + apartment sex ✨
📌 Please read responsibly. Hydrate. Stretch. Ice your thighs.

🎧 » Stay Tonight — CHUNG HA « 0:58 ─〇───── 3:37 ⇄ ◃◃ ⅠⅠ ▹▹ ↻
Jeongin was the youngest artist at NO SAINT INK.
When Chan opened the studio—an industrial-meets-artsy little corner spot on the edge of Itaewon—Jeongin was still a baby, barely legal, and fresh out of a back-alley apprenticeship that nearly made him quit the industry altogether. His lines were good back then. His hands were steady. But it wasn’t until Chan saw the sketchbook he kept buried in the bottom of his bag—spine cracked, filled with anatomy studies, linework so fine it looked like thread—that he offered him a space.
Not a job. A future.
“You’ve got hands like a ghost and an eye like a scalpel,” Chan had said, flipping through the pages with the kind of quiet approval Jeongin would chase for years after. “Let’s make you sharp.”
So he stayed.
Became Chan’s apprentice first—studied under him like a monk, learned symmetry, balance, the rules before he broke them. But Chan was a generalist, and Jeongin was greedy. He wanted more than just solid lines. So he floated—between Felix, who taught him piercings and dotwork with the same flirty chaos he used to charm every client in a five-block radius; Seungmin, who drilled design philosophy and made him redo stencils six times until the curves were perfect; Minho who didn’t teach. Not in words at least. Minho was instinct. He only took blackwork clients. His designs were architectural. Cold. Brutally beautiful. Jeongin watched him once sketch a full spine piece upside down without lifting the pencil. And Minho didn’t explain it—just nodded toward the chair and said, “Try it.” ; Hyunjin, who was chaos of a different breed. Rarity. Flash. Pure art. He lit up the room. He painted with colour, emotion, movement. He made skin weep and bloom. So Jeongin learned to feel. Not with his mouth. Not with his words. But through ink. Through hands; And finally—Jisung. The wildcard. He made Jeongin rewrite every script piece by hand—no fonts, no tracing, no stabilizers. Taught him how to letter like a poet on a deadline. Drilled gradient theory into his skull until he could shade a full moon from memory. He also got him drunk exactly once.
But, Jeongin absorbed all of that information. He rarely spoke unless it mattered. Didn’t flirt, didn’t joke. Just worked. Clean ink, smooth lines, deceptively delicate work that always left clients breathless by the time he wiped them down.
And that made him dangerous.
Clients came in expecting the sweet-faced boy in black gloves to be safe. But he wasn’t. He didn’t smile. He didn’t talk. But he saw. He looked through you with those fox-sharp eyes and touched you like he already knew what would make you shiver.
He wasn’t even your artist.
But you asked for him anyway. Over and over again.
And honestly? You didn’t expect to find anyone like Jeongin in a place like NO SAINT INK. You were a digital artist—head designer at a massive marketing firm in Seoul, the kind of job that paid well but chewed through your soul one brand guide at a time. Long hours. Clean lines. Corporate clients who wanted “authentic grunge” and then asked you to make it “less aggressive.”
You came to the shop for the first time six months ago. It was raining. You still remember the way the neon buzzed through the window, warped by the fog. You’d booked the session weeks ago, and if you bailed now, you’d never go through with it.
The piece was for your sister.
Delicate—inked across the side of your ribs. A fine line moth with wings shaped like her initials, its body drawn from her favorite pressed flower. You designed it yourself. Could’ve gone to anyone to ink it. But Felix—who you’d met at a gallery party once—told you to book with the youngest.
“Jeongin’s got the hands for it,” he said. “Real gentle. Real quiet. Real clean.”
And he was.
He barely said five words the whole session. Just pressed the stencil into place, gloved up, and looked at you once—soft and serious—before asking, “Can I touch here?”
That was all.
But when the needle buzzed to life and his hand steadied on your ribs, something cracked open in your chest.
He didn’t talk. He didn’t flirt. But his touch was so steady. So precise. You tipped your head back. Exhaled. And something in you settled. You didn’t think of him again until a month later—when your hand brushed the moth in the mirror, and you remembered how warm his palm had been against your skin. You booked again. And again.
You weren’t looking for anyone. Least of all him. But something… clicked.
Maybe it was the way he watched you when he thought you weren’t looking. Or the way his gloves lingered a little too long during placement. Or the fact that he remembered your preferred ink tone without asking.
You didn’t flirt. Not at first. But that changed the night you showed up just before closing—allegedly to “ask about a touch-up,” but really, you were just bored and restless and wanted to see him.
The tension snapped before either of you said much.
He was the last one cleaning up. You were the last one out the door. The shop lights were already half-dimmed when he finally looked at you across the counter and said: “You’ve been staring at my hands all week. Just ask.”
You didn’t ask. You just kissed him.
That was the first time. The second time, he pulled your panties off with his teeth. The third time, you were already naked by the time he locked the door.
Your current dynamic? No rules. No titles.
Just fucked-up timing and bad habits and “this doesn’t mean anything” muttered between gasps. You swore it wasn’t serious. You weren’t stupid. Jeongin was a fuckboy—quiet, calculating, the kind who didn’t do commitment but did make you scream into his sheets like it was your religion.
“Friends with benefits,” you called it once.
He snorted. “We’re not friends.”
That stung a little. But you let it go.
You told him once, arms still trembling from orgasm, voice flat:
“You’re just easy to fuck.”
He didn’t miss a beat. Just wiped his hand on the sheets and replied: “You’re easy to keep fucking.”
Fair enough.
But then he started looking at you differently. Staying longer. Not reaching for his phone. Brushing hair from your eyes like it mattered. And you? You haven’t slept with anyone else in weeks. Not since the last time he kissed your throat after, then said—barely audible—
“You smell like ink.”
Like it was a compliment. Like it meant something. Like you meant something.
Seoul, South Korea. Tuesday, 2:41 AM.
It started with a text.
Technically, it started with a drunk sketch at 2:41 a.m. on a Tuesday and a half-eaten tub of mint chocolate ice cream balancing precariously on your thigh. But the text came after—blurry photo, minimal explanation.
[YOU]: [image attached] [YOU]: thinking of putting this behind my ear. or on my hip. thoughts?
You didn’t expect him to reply right away. He never did. Jeongin had a habit of leaving you on read, sometimes for hours, sometimes until you forgot what you’d even sent. He only ever texted back when it mattered.
But this time, he answered in six minutes.
[JEONGIN]: Hip. [JEONGIN]: Bring the original sketch. I’ll clean it up. [JEONGIN]: You free Friday night?
You stared at the screen. Blinked. Then typed:
[YOU]: Yeah. I can come.
He didn’t respond after that. Of course he didn’t. Classic Jeongin. Always just enough. Always just under your skin.
The design was something you’d drawn weeks ago without realizing what it was for—a feather, sharp and broken at the tip, its spine twisting into barbed wire that coiled once before vanishing into smoke. It wasn’t pretty. It wasn’t meant to be.
You’d doodled it while zoning out during a strategy meeting about a toothpaste rebrand. But when you looked at it later—really looked—you realized what it was: grief, rebellion, exhaustion. A tattoo for survival. A promise inked in blade and burn.
You hadn’t told anyone else about it. Not even your coworkers. Not even your therapist.
But you sent it to Jeongin. Because you knew—knew—he’d get it. Not just the aesthetic. The weight.
You didn’t need him to ask what it meant. You needed him to take one look and say where. You needed him to act like it already belonged on you.
And he did.
Friday, 9:00 PM.
You’re standing outside NO SAINT INK, hood up, hands stuffed in your jacket pockets, trying not to fidget. The shop’s sign glows dull red in the rain—flickering slightly like always—and the front is dark, already closed to the public.
But Jeongin’s still inside.
You know, because he buzzed you in five minutes ago with a single-word reply:
[JEONGIN]: Door’s open.
Not hey. Not come in. Just… open.
That’s how he is.
You push through the door. The familiar scent hits you first—clean metal, warm ink, faded cologne. The space is dim, soft playlist humming low through the speakers.
Jeongin’s still working. Alone.
He’s at his corner desk, black hoodie sleeves pushed up, sketchpad in front of him, pen tapping silently against his lip. Jaw set. The light above him halos his head like something cinematic—sharp shadows, gleaming ink bottle.
He doesn’t look up when you walk in.
Doesn’t say anything either.
Just flicks a glance your way as you approach, then turns the sketchbook toward you.
It’s your design. Redrawn. Sharper. Cleaner. But still yours.
He’s added fine line smoke along the base, twisted the barbed wire tighter, bled the feather edge into a fragmented wing. It’s heartbreak. It’s rebellion. It’s right.
“You didn’t say where on your hip,” he murmurs finally. “Show me.”
Just that. No hello. No how’ve you been. Just show me.
With a quiet exhale, you step out of your sneakers, slide your thumbs into the waistband of your jeans, and peel them down slow. The denim sticks slightly from the rain, catching at your thighs before finally falling to the floor. You kick them aside. You’re left in a long tee and a pair of black panties, the thin lace riding high on your hipbone.
Jeongin doesn’t comment.
He never does.
But his gaze drops.
Not in a gross way. Not even obviously. Just… that half-second sweep he always does—eyes dipping to skin, breath slowing, jaw flexing once like he’s cataloguing the exact shape of you for later.
You swallow. Your voice comes out quieter than you expect.
“Here,” you say, brushing your fingers along the curve where your waist narrows into your hip. “I want the feather to sit right above the bone. Barbed wire trailing low.”
He doesn’t answer right away. Just stands, gloves already on, stencil in one hand. He moves like he’s done this a thousand times. Like you’re just another canvas.
But when he steps into your space and kneels to your level—face suddenly inches from your bare hip—your lungs forget how to work.
“Don’t move,” he says, and his voice is low. Focused. The same tone he uses when he’s mid-linework. When he’s inside you.
You still.
His hands are warm even through the gloves. He smooths the skin once—just once—with a barely-there touch, and then carefully presses the stencil into place. It’s cool against your skin. Wet with transfer gel. His fingers trail after it, holding it down, checking placement.
You feel his breath before you hear it.
He’s close. So fucking close. One exhale and his mouth could be on your thigh.
“You sure about this?” he asks, voice quiet now, more smoke than sound. “Once it’s on you, it’s permanent.”
You know he’s not talking about the ink.
You don’t answer.
Instead, you glance down—and Jeongin is still crouched in front of you, one hand on your hip, the other brushing the edge of your thigh like he’s testing the gravity between you.
He looks up.
You meet his eyes.
And that’s when it snaps.
Because the silence between you has never been empty. It’s always been a loaded gun. And now, standing half-naked in the soft hum of NO SAINT INK, it finally fires.
Jeongin rises without warning—slow, fluid, eyes never leaving yours.
“You’ve been thinking about it,” he says, voice low and even. “This exact moment.”
You blink. “What moment?”
He tilts his head, steps closer, so close you feel the heat off his chest.
“The one where I press you against this chair and make you forget what you came in for.”
You breathe in. Sharp. Shaky.
He smirks, just barely. “But you came in for the tattoo. Right?”
You nod.
“Then sit.”
He turns—walks back to his tray like you didn’t just melt a little under his stare. Like he didn’t just say that shit and leave your brain scattered like ash.
He pulls the stool over, checks the stencil one last time, preps the needle—buzzing low now, hungry in the quiet.
“Underwear stays,” he says, glancing over his shoulder. “But pull the side up for me. High.”
You do as he says.
The chair’s cold. Your thighs are bare. Your panties cut high over your hip now, nearly indecent. But Jeongin doesn’t touch you yet. He just kneels again—level with the stencil—and studies it. His hand smooths along the edge, careful.
Then his voice, soft and dark: “Try not to shake too much.”
And then the needle kisses your skin.
“Fuck,” you hiss through your teeth, hands gripping the chair’s armrests like it might help. It doesn’t.
Jeongin doesn’t look up. “Too much?” he asks mildly, like you’re inconveniencing him by reacting to literal pain.
You glare down at him. “It’s a needle in my hip, Jeongin.”
He hums—an amused little sound low in his throat. “You’ve taken worse.”
Your breath catches. “Excuse me?”
He finally glances up. Eyes dark. Unbothered. That faint smirk tugging at the corner of his mouth like he knows exactly what he's doing to you.
“You heard me.”
You grit your teeth, refusing to squirm—even though the sensation is starting to blur now, sharp heat ebbing into something deeper. The rhythm of the machine. The drag of his gloved fingers. The low thrum of tension that has nothing to do with pain.
“You’re an asshole,” you mutter.
“Mm. But I make pretty things,” he says, gaze dipping back to your skin. “Stay still. You twitch and I’ll have to fix it.”
You mutter something under your breath.
He glances up again. “What was that?”
“I said—” You inhale through the sting. “You’re lucky your dick game is unreal.”
Jeongin’s laugh is barely audible, just a huff of air through his nose. But the way his hand slows for a beat at your words? You feel that.
“Oh?” he murmurs, adjusting the angle, fingers spreading slightly against your hip to stretch the skin. His touch is professional. Barely. “Is that why you keep coming back?”
You scoff. “Please. I keep coming back for your artistry.”
“Right,” he deadpans. “Not because you came all over my tongue in this chair two weeks ago.”
Your stomach flips.
“You’re disgusting,” you whisper.
He leans in—just enough to make you feel his breath again, warm across your skin.
“You’re the one who begged.”
“Jeongin—”
“Begged,” he repeats, eyes flicking up, daring you to deny it. “With your thighs around my head.”
You do squirm now, fingers gripping the chair harder, breath shaky.
He smiles. Just a little.
“Thought so.”
Another line starts, slower this time—agonizing in the way it presses in deep, steady, confident. You hate that it’s turning you on. He’s too close. The buzz of the needle is too low. His voice, when he speaks again, curls up your spine like smoke.
“What’s it say about you,” he murmurs, “that you’d let a fuckboy mark you this many times?”
You narrow your eyes, forcing a breath. “What’s it say about you,” you whisper, “that you keep memorizing every place you’ve touched me?”
He doesn’t answer.
But you see it. That flicker in his eyes. That shift behind the usual quiet. He does remember.
And then he says—calm, quiet, almost cruel: “Stay still, baby.”
And fuck—you do. You have to. Because if you move now, you’ll either ruin the line—
—or climb into his lap.
And you’re not sure which would be worse.
He works in silence after that. Not the kind that feels cold or distant—but sharp. Loaded. The kind that listens. Every brush of his glove against your skin is surgical. Every pause is precise. Every inhale from your side? Noted.
You swear he’s dragging the needle slower on purpose.
“I can feel you smirking,” you mutter.
“Am not.”
“You’re such a dick when you tattoo.”
Jeongin’s mouth twitches—just slightly, just enough to confirm what you already know. He is smirking.
But all he says is, “You’re squirming.”
“Because you’re being annoying.”
“Because you’re wet.”
Your mouth drops open.
“Fuck you—”
He tilts his head innocently, like he didn’t just say that with the same tone someone might comment on the weather.
“You get like this every time I ink your hips.”
“That is not—”
“Every time.”
He lifts the needle for a moment, wiping gently—grazing your skin with a motion so tender it makes you shiver.
“Remember that piece on your inner thigh?” he asks, like he’s recalling the weather again. “Took longer than it should’ve because you wouldn’t stop clenching.”
You bite down a moan. “That’s because you breathed on me, Jeongin.”
“And you begged for a break halfway through.”
“I needed water—”
“You needed a dick.”
Your hand flies out and slaps his arm.
He doesn’t even flinch. Just laughs under his breath—wicked, warm, devastating. Still not looking at you. Still focused on the curve he’s finishing.
“You’re evil,” you whisper.
He hums. “Maybe.”
Another pause. Another wipe.
You think the worst is over—until he speaks again.
“Why’d you ask for me this time?” he says suddenly, soft. “Not your usual spot. Not your usual style.”
Your throat tightens. “Yeah,” you say.
He doesn’t ask why. Just keeps going—needle buzzing like a wasp in the quiet. But then—because maybe he does want to know, just not directly—he asks, “You never said what this one’s about.”
You hesitate.
He wipes gently. Adjusts his grip.
And this time, when you speak, your voice is quieter. Flat. “Drew it by accident.”
He pauses. Looks up. Not fully. Just enough that you catch the flick of his eyes.
You go on. “During a rebrand pitch. I was half-listening, just doodling. Didn’t even realize what it was until later.”
He stills the machine and wipes
again—more slowly this time. Then leans back just enough to glance at the stencil he’d reworked from your sketch. Your pain. His hands. It looks exactly like what you were afraid to say out loud.
“You added the rest.” you murmur.
He nods.
“It’s better.”
“It’s honest,” he says. “Didn’t want to pretty it up.”
“Thank you.”
A beat.
Then he leans in again, steadier this time. “Ready?”
You nod.
He starts again and goes silent. But not for long as he then parts his lips to talk again. “What does it mean to you?”
You swallow. Then: “Grief. Rage. The part of me that stayed after everything else gave up.”
He exhales slowly. Not surprised. Just—understanding. “You draw like someone trying to survive,” he murmurs.
You huff a laugh. “You tattoo like someone who already died.”
Jeongin chuckles—just once. Quiet. Dark. “Maybe I did,” he says.
Silence again. But not cold. Just… full. And then—without lifting the machine, still tracing ink into your skin—he adds: “I redrew it three times before it felt right. I didn’t want to fuck it up.”
You turn your head. “You never fuck it up.”
“I could.”
“You won’t.”
He doesn’t answer. But you see the flicker in his expression—something unspoken and sharp and vulnerable. The kind of thing you both ignore because naming it would make it real.
The needle hums again. His other hand steadies you with the barest pressure.
“Stay still,” he murmurs. “Almost done.”
Before you know it, he's done and for a second, there’s only silence. Then the soft rattle of his tray—tools settling, gloves flexing, the gentle hush of something opening. He doesn’t speak. Doesn’t say done or look at that or any of the things other artists might say.
He just sets the machine down with care and shifts back on his stool, gaze flicking over your skin with a craftsman’s intensity.
Then—quieter than before: “Go look.”
You blink. “What?”
“The mirror.” He gestures with a tilt of his chin toward the full-length mirror across the room. “Go see it.”
You hesitate—your thigh prickling with heat, the skin raw and new—but then slowly rise from the chair.
He doesn’t watch you walk. Not exactly. But he feels you go.
You stand in front of the mirror, eyes tracing over the tattoo. Your idea. His craft. You stare at it—at you—for longer than you mean to. Behind you, Jeongin moves again. You hear the snap of fresh gloves, the squirt of antiseptic, the fold of paper towels. Then—
“You like it?”
You nod. Still watching your own reflection.
He walks over slowly, crouches behind you again—this time not kneeling to tattoo, but to clean. The disinfectant is cold. His touch is not. You flinch anyway.
“Sorry,” he murmurs. “Stings a little.”
You exhale. “It’s fine.”
He works quietly—wiping carefully, checking for any sign of irritation, scanning the lines with a gaze that misses nothing. Then he grabs the wrap and tape from the tray and starts dressing the tattoo, pressing the edges down gently.
“You’ll need to keep it clean,” he says. “No tight pants. No soaking. I’ll send you the aftercare again.”
You glance at him in the mirror. “You think I’ve forgotten?”
He lifts a brow. “You think I trust you?”
You smirk. “Fair.”
The tape seals into place with a soft press. His palm lingers on your thigh a beat too long.
Then—
“There,” he murmurs.
You look down. The tattoo is covered, secure, safe.
But the tension is not. Neither of you move. His hand is still on your skin. And in the mirror—you catch it: His eyes, locked on you. Not the tattoo. Not the wrap.
You.
That same look he gave you the first time you fucked against the wall of this shop. The look he had when you said you didn’t want anything serious. When he nodded like it didn’t matter—and then kissed you like it did.
He doesn’t blink. Doesn’t move.
Just stares at you like he’s trying to decide if now is the moment—if this is the time he finally stops pretending that you’re just another client, another warm body, another convenient fuck.
Your breath tightens.
And then he speaks low and even: “Say it.”
You swallow. “Say what?”
He tilts his head, fingers flexing just slightly against your skin. “Whatever excuse you’re about to make to leave.”
You flinch. Not visibly, but enough that he feels it—because his hand slides higher. Not inappropriate. Not quite. Just enough to remind you of every time before. His fingers warm against the edge of your hip. Just under the hem of your crooked panties.
You meet his gaze in the mirror. And whisper, “I wasn’t gonna leave.”
A pause.
Then: “Good.”
His hand flattens, slow, spreading possessive heat across your thigh. His voice stays soft—never louder than the buzz of your heart in your ears.
“‘Cause you came here for more than a tattoo.”
You don’t argue. You can’t. Because he’s right. And he knows it—because his mouth brushes just behind your knee, a featherlight kiss that shouldn’t be as devastating as it is. Then another. Higher.
“You always come back,” he murmurs, lips grazing up the inside of your thigh. “Even when you say you won’t.”
Your eyes flutter closed. “Jeongin—”
“I waited,” he says, almost to himself now. “Thought maybe this time you’d ask for someone else. Felix. Seungmin. Minho.”
You shiver. “I didn’t.”
“I know.”
He stands. Rises slowly—like a shadow overtaking light— and moves behind, close enough that his chest is against your back, and his breath fans against your ear. His hand stays where it is, gripping the meat of your thigh. But his other hand—oh, it trails up. Over your ribs. Your waist. Until his thumb drags under your bra strap.
His lips hover at your neck. “And I told myself this was the last time.”
You can’t breathe.
“But you walked in wearing that little smirk,” he says, voice darker now, rougher, “and sat in my chair like you knew I’d ruin you again.”
You glance at his reflection. His pupils are blown wide. His jaw tight.
“You think I did this on purpose?” you whisper.
His smile is sharp. “Didn’t you?”
You don’t get a chance to answer. Because his mouth is on your neck in the next second—hot, open, biting just enough to make your knees weaken.
“You said no strings,” he mutters against your skin. “But you let me draw on you like I’m signing my name.”
You gasp.
And then—his hand slides up, past your tattoo, past the tape, until his palm cradles your lower belly.
His fingers splay. Possessive. Intentional.
Like he’s reminding you where else he’s touched. Where else he plans to.
“Still no strings, baby?” he whispers. “Even now?”
You don’t answer. Instead, your turn around to face him, lips crashing onto his. Hungry. Needy. He groans into your mouth—low and wrecked—like he’s been starving for this, for you. Like he’s been holding himself back since the second you walked in, cocky little smirk and all, asking for him again. Like every time you said “no strings,” it sliced just a little deeper.
His hands are on you instantly—one gripping your waist, the other fisting into your hair as he drags you closer, mouth devouring yours like he’s reclaiming territory he never really lost.
Your fingers claw at his shirt, dragging it up, desperate to feel skin. He helps—yanking it over his head in one sharp motion and tossing it somewhere behind him. You don’t even get a second to admire the view before he’s on you again, teeth grazing your bottom lip, hips pinning you against the counter.
“Tell me to stop,” he mutters, breath hot against your cheek.
You don’t.
You grab his jaw instead, kiss him harder—tongue, teeth, everything.
And that’s all he needs.
He lifts you onto the edge of the sink like you weigh nothing. The mirror rattles behind you, your thighs parting as he steps in close, his fingers already dragging your panties aside.
But he pauses—because of course he does. Jeongin, for all his unhinged quiet-boy energy, never forgets to check. His thumb presses gently against your inner thigh. His mouth brushes yours.
“May I?” he whispers.
You nod—shaking, desperate, soaked.
But he waits.
“Words,” he breathes. “Give me words, baby.”
“Yes,” you gasp. “God, yes, Jeongin—please—”
He growls, low and filthy, and drops to his knees like a man worshipping something he’s already ruined. Because that’s what you are now. Ruined.
Jeongin's hand grips your thigh—tight, possessive—spreading you wider as his mouth descends like a death sentence. The first lick is slow, deliberate, a warning shot. Just the flat of his tongue dragging through your folds, gathering every ounce of heat you’ve been soaking in since the stencil hit your skin.
Then—he moans.
Like it tastes as good as he remembered. Like he missed it. Like he fucking needs it.
You choke on a gasp, hips jolting—only to be slammed back down by the firm pressure of his palm.
“Stay still,” he mutters, mouth grazing you as he speaks. “Wanna do this right.”
And then he devours you. Not sweet. Not gentle. Just—Jeongin. Filthy, focused, starved.
His tongue works you open with slow circles, sharp flicks, then a sudden seal of lips around your clit that makes your vision flash white. He’s quiet, but his mouth is chaos—sucking like he’s trying to pull your soul through your cunt, fingers digging into your thighs like he can feel the pulse from the inside.
You tangle your hands in his hair, back arching off the mirror behind you. “Jeongin—fuck—please—”
His grip tightens.
He hums, tongue stroking deeper, and the vibration nearly undoes you.
“You always beg so pretty,” he murmurs, voice muffled against you. “No strings, right? So let me ruin you.”
And ruin you, he does.
His pace shifts—knows the pattern that makes you shake, that makes your knees weak and your breath break in your throat. He works you like a song he’s played a thousand times. Like your body was made for his mouth.
And when he slips a finger in—then a second, slow and curling—you nearly sob. His fingers curl again—precise, relentless, stroking right where you need it. His mouth stays locked around your clit, tongue flicking in sync with every pump of his hand. Like he’s in your head. Like he knows exactly when you're about to fall over the edge and drags you back just to watch you tremble.
“Jeongin—” you gasp, voice breaking. Your thighs twitch around his shoulders, muscles drawn so tight you’re shaking. “Fuck, I’m—”
“Cum for me,” he breathes, lifting his mouth just long enough to say it—wet and ruined against your skin. “Come on, baby. Let me have it.”
And you do.
The tension snaps like wire—hot, vicious, absolute. It hits like a wave crashing through your core, stealing the breath from your lungs as you cry out. Your hands clutch at his hair, your back arches against the mirror, and your hips buck once—twice—before he locks you down again, tongue lapping through your orgasm like it’s the only thing he’s ever wanted.
Your moans taper into a long whimper as he slows, soft licks now, gentle—comforting. His fingers slip free with a final curl that makes your whole body flinch. You sag against the glass behind you, boneless and wrecked, breath catching in your throat.
Jeongin rises slowly.
Wipes his mouth with the back of his hand, eyes heavy, lips swollen.
And smirking.
He cages you in with a hand on either side of the mirror—still fully dressed, still composed, like he didn’t just make you fall apart on a bathroom sink with the kind of head that ruins lives.
“You came so hard you almost forgot your name,” he says softly. “Want me to remind you?”
And you—your hand already at his belt—just grin. Weak. Wrecked. “Only if you use your mouth again.”
His mouth twitches at that—half smirk, half growl—and his hands drop to yours, guiding them as you undo his belt. The metal clinks through the quiet, obscene in how deliberate it sounds. You’re still trembling, your thighs sticky with the aftershock of what he just did—and he hasn’t even fucked you yet.
But you can feel how hard he is. Pressed against the fabric. Heat radiating between you. Dangerous.
“You sure?” he murmurs, breath hot against your cheek. “Because if I fuck you now, it’s not gonna be soft.”
You nod. “I don’t want soft.”
He laughs—dark and low—and kisses you again.
One hand fists in your hair while the other drags your panties down your legs. They drop to your ankle and stay there—forgotten, tangled.
He pulls his cock out—thick, flushed, already leaking—and runs it once through your folds. Slow. Teasing. He watches your face as he does it, watches your eyelids flutter and your lips part.
“You’re still shaking,” he murmurs.
“You’re still stalling,” you shoot back, voice ragged.
That earns you a sharp snap of his hips—just the tip breaching, making you gasp.
“Say it again,” he rasps.
“Fuck me, Jeongin.”
And that’s all it takes.
Jeongin thrusts in—deep, perfect, filthy. The stretch has you gasping, clawing at his back, your head tipping back against the mirror with a soft thud. He groans low in his throat like he’s the one unraveling—like you are the ruin he can’t stop coming back to.
You’re wet. Still fluttering from the orgasm he gave you. And he doesn’t give you a second to adjust. Just starts moving—deep and rough, hands gripping your hips like they’re his handles. Like he owns this moment.
“Still no strings?” he pants, voice cracking as he fucks into you.
You can’t answer. Only moan.
“Still just a fuckboy?” he grits out, dragging your hips forward, fucking deeper. “Even now?”
Your nails dig into his shoulder. You’re close again, already—tension building fast. Too fast. His thrusts get sharper. His forehead presses to yours, and when he speaks, it’s quiet. Desperate.
“Say my name when you cum,” he breathes. “I need to hear it. And you will cum. All over my cock.”
His words detonate something inside you.
You clench around him—so tight he groans, forehead falling to your shoulder for a split second before he snaps back up, hand fisting in your hair to keep you exactly where he wants you.
“Louder,” he pants. “Let them hear you. Let the whole fucking street hear how good I fuck you.”
And fuck, you do. You're moaning, gasping, whining his name like a prayer dragged through broken glass. Your hips grind to meet each thrust—sharp, fast, brutal—and the mirror shudders behind you, rattling with each slick impact.
He’s everywhere. His mouth is on your neck, biting, dragging bruises like signatures down your skin. He sucks just below your jaw—hard enough to make you whimper—and bites again. Possessive. Proud. Like he wants every inch of you marked.
“You’re mine right now,” he growls, breath hot against your pulse. “Every time you fuck someone else, you’re gonna feel this. Right here.”
He drives in, deep, angling his hips until your legs twitch around him.
“Feel that? That’s me. That’s how you’ll remember.”
Your mouth opens—maybe to sob, maybe to curse—and he doesn’t give you the chance. His thumb presses into your bottom lip, demanding, and your body obeys before your brain catches up—sucking it in, lips closing around the digit as your eyes flutter shut.
“Just like that,” he whispers. “So pretty like this. Fuck—don’t stop.”
His cock grinds deeper. Filthy. Perfect.
And then his hand moves—thumb slipping free, wet and shining, before he curls it beneath your jaw.
“Open,” he orders, voice hoarse.
You do.
He spits—hot and slow—straight into your mouth, watching with half-lidded eyes as it lands on your tongue.
Then he crashes his mouth into yours. Kisses you like he’s drowning. Like your mouth is the only thing keeping him alive. Tongue fucking, teeth clashing, breath shared like oxygen isn’t real unless it passes between you first.
The thrusts don’t stop. He fucks you through the kiss—fast, messy, ruthless.
You feel it building again. Pressure winding tighter. Ready to snap.
“Come on, baby,” he whispers against your lips. “Cum for me. Say my name.”
And this time, you scream it.
“Jeongin—fuck, Jeongin—”
Your body breaks. Wrung out on his cock, his mouth, his name. Everything shatters. Every nerve lights up. You cum so hard your vision blacks out, breath gone, hands shaking. You collapse forward, forehead pressed to his shoulder, chest heaving, body limp and twitching from the aftershocks.
But Jeongin doesn’t stop. Truly insatiable.
“Mm-mm,” Jeongin hums, low and cruelly sweet. His pace slows just enough to feel—deep, dragging thrusts that have you sobbing into his skin. “What, you thought that was it?”
His cock pulses inside you, thick and hot, still painfully hard.
“You’re shaking,” he coos, like he likes it. Like he’s proud of it. One hand smooths up your spine, mock-gentle, before he fists your hair again and tugs—just enough to tilt your head back.
“Look at me.”
You try. Barely. Your lashes flutter, lips parted and glazed with spit, wrecked in every sense of the word.
He groans—deep and hungry—at the sight.
“Fuck. You are pretty like this.”
Then his grip tightens, and he pulls out slow—just the head still inside—before snapping his hips forward again, hard enough to make your voice catch on a moan.
“I’m close,” he pants. “But you’re not gonna take it here.”
You blink. Confused. Barely able to string two thoughts together.
“Wha—”
He grins, eyes dark.
And then—he pulls out, dragging slick down your thigh as you whimper, empty and raw.
“On your knees,” he orders, already stroking himself, cock flushed and angry in his fist. “Mouth open.”
You slide down, dazed, trembling, ruined—but obedient. And Jeongin watches you drop like it’s the only thing he’s ever wanted.
Eyes locked on yours. Jaw clenched. Chest heaving.
You kneel, wrecked and flushed, thighs still shaking—and he’s towering over you, fist tight around his cock, breath hissing through his teeth.
“Open,” he growls.
You do. Lips parted, tongue out. Wanton. Waiting. “Fuck—” he chokes, stroking faster now, his other hand gripping your jaw, thumb pressed just under your chin to keep you steady. “You look so good like this, baby. All mine."
He laughs, breathless—half-mocking, half-obsessed. And then he spits again. Right into your mouth.
“Swallow,” he commands, voice wrecked.
You do. Without blinking. Without shame.
He groans, low and rough. “Good fucking girl.”
And then he breaks.
A guttural sound rips from his chest—he jerks once, twice—then he’s spilling across your tongue, hot and filthy, painting your mouth like a claim he’ll never admit to out loud.
You swallow again. Eyes locked. He’s panting. Still holding your face like you’re fragile. Like you’re holy. Like you’re his, even if he’ll never say it.
And then—after a long beat of silence—
“You’ll come back,” Jeongin murmurs, voice soft and certain, thumb brushing the corner of your mouth.
“Maybe,” you whisper, licking your lips.
But you both know the truth. You already did.
The air is now thick with sweat, sex, and something else neither of you dare name. You’re still kneeling, flushed and dazed, your breath coming in short waves as you finally—slowly—rise to your feet.
And Jeongin catches you.
No hesitation. No smart-ass remark. Just catches you—hands steady at your waist like instinct. His grip is gentler now, his gaze darker but softened. He brushes a strand of hair from your cheek, his thumb dragging lightly along your jaw, and then he tilts your face up.
“You good?” he murmurs.
You nod, but he’s already moving—already kissing your temple like he didn’t just fuck the sanity out of you. Like it’s reflex now. Like it’s routine.
Because it is.
Pulling up his jeans again, Jeongin reaches for a clean towel from the cabinet—one of the soft ones, the kind he used to never bother with when this all started—and runs warm water over it, checking the temperature against his wrist like you’re breakable. Like you matter.
“I’ll clean you up,” he says quietly. “Don’t move.”
He kneels again. Not like before. Not like worship.
This time it’s care.
You feel the difference when he wipes between your thighs with slow, deliberate strokes. Not rushed. Not clinical. He even murmurs a low, “Sorry,” when you twitch at the sensitivity.
“You didn’t used to do this,” you whisper, voice dry with post-orgasm rasp.
His hand stills for a second. Then resumes.
“Didn’t used to care if you got home safe, either,” he says, not looking up. “But I do.”
You swallow. Something hot curls low in your chest.
When he finishes, he tosses the towel in the laundry bin and returns to you—pressing a water bottle into your hand, then grabbing your discarded jeans and helping you step into them. He doesn’t rush. Doesn’t smirk.
He just tugs them gently up your legs, careful not to touch the fresh wrap on your thigh.
“Tell me if it starts to hurt later,” he says. “Text me if anything feels off. I’ll fix it.”
“Jeongin…” you murmur.
“I know,” he says, voice softer now. “No strings.”
But still—he presses his forehead to yours. Just for a moment.
Something shifted.
You felt it first the next morning—not in your body (though, yes, your thighs ache and your tattoo’s tender), but in your phone.
[JEONGIN]: how’s my favourite canvas? [JEONGIN]: tattoo feelin okay? [JEONGIN]: or do i need to come kiss it better
You laugh—because of course he’s still a menace—but you also… pause. Because he’s never texted you first. Not like this. Not with check-ins, not with half-flirty, half-soft words that make your stomach twist in a dangerously not-just-horny way.
You reply. You always do. But this time, the thread doesn’t end at “come over.”
Instead, it leads to—
[JEONGIN]: wanna get boba or some shit later [JEONGIN]: bring your sketchbook. i wanna see more of what’s in your head
So you do. And he does.
He makes dumb faces behind his cup lid when the pearls hit your teeth wrong. He teases your handwriting. He compliments your line work in the same breath he makes fun of your playlist. He asks about your job—not just the annoying clients but what you actually like doing. When you mention the burnout creeping in, he hums thoughtfully and says: “You should quit and be my studio wife.”
“That’s not a job.”
“Then I’ll make it one. Full benefits. All the orgasms you can handle.”
“You’re an idiot.”
“Your idiot,” he says with a smirk. Then coughs. “I mean—not officially. But, you know.”
And then he blushes. Fucking blushes.
In the weeks that follow, the change isn’t loud.
It’s subtle. Warm.
He starts saving you a seat at the shop when you visit. Starts texting you good luck before meetings. Starts calling you after just to hear your voice when you sound tired. Starts drawing more—leaves his sketchbooks open, just in case you feel brave enough to peek.
He still fucks you like a goddamn fever dream, of course. Still ruins you in every corner of the studio when the door’s locked and the music’s loud enough.
But after?
He doesn’t vanish.
He lets you stay. Brushes your hair back while you’re curled up on his chest. Taps your ankle with his foot until you laugh again. Offers you a hoodie, then scowls when you steal it for real.
Sometimes—when he thinks you’re asleep—he traces your tattoo with his finger. Like it anchors him. Like he knows something changed, too.
And sometimes, you open your eyes just enough to see him looking at you like this—like he feels everything you won’t say yet.
No strings? Yeah. You’re both tangled as fuck.
Your sheets are already half-off the bed, twisted beneath your back, damp from sweat and friction and his mouth.
Jeongin has been between your legs for what feels like forever. Not rushing. Not teasing. Just—feasting.
Tongue deep and slow, then fast and flicking. Then back to slow, like he’s savoring something no one else is allowed to taste.
Your thighs keep trembling. One’s thrown over his shoulder; the other keeps spasming, jerking whenever he sucks that one fucking spot. He’s holding you open like you’re an offering, like you owe him this.
“Fuck—Jeongin, please—”
He hums against your clit. The vibration makes your hips stutter, back arching off the sheets.
“Sound pretty when you beg,” he murmurs. His voice is wrecked. Drenched in filth. “Could make you do it all night.”
You whimper—high and helpless—and try to push his head down, needing more. Needing everything.
He laughs, dark and low, then gives you exactly what you want.
Sucks your clit hard, tongue circling, then sliding down to fuck you deeper. His nose nudges the swollen bud just right, and you choke on a sob.
You’re gone.
You can’t hold back. Not with the way he’s devouring you. Not with the way he knows your body better than anyone. You feel it—your climax crashing through like a violent wave, all heat and light and wreckage. You scream his name—loud, broken—hips jerking as your orgasm hits like a car crash.
But Jeongin doesn’t stop.
He growls into your cunt and doubles down. Licks you through it—messy, wet, relentless. His mouth is soaked, chin dripping, and you swear he smiles against you when your thighs start to close in.
Jeongin finally pulls back—face glistening, lips swollen, breath ragged—and climbs up your body like he owns every inch of it.
He crashes into you with a kiss that’s all tongue and teeth and desperation. No finesse, no restraint—just need. His hands roam everywhere, gripping your hips, your waist, your face like he can’t touch you fast enough, close enough, deep enough.
“Mine,” he pants between kisses. “Mine—mine—mine—”
You’re still trembling. Still trying to come back to earth. But you manage a breathless laugh against his mouth. “Innie?”
He freezes. Just a little. Eyes flicking up to yours, wide and dark and soft.
“Mmm?” he hums, like he didn’t just break you open and eat your soul.
You smile, wicked and sweet. Drag your nails gently down his back. “Remember when I said no strings attached?”
He doesn’t move. Doesn’t answer.
You lean in, press your lips to the shell of his ear, and whisper: “And you said—maybe, baby.”
He exhales—shaky. Vulnerable.
You pull back, meet his gaze, and smile softer this time. No teasing. Just truth. “Well,” you murmur, threading your fingers through his hair, “I think that maybe was about more than you let on.”
You smile, smaller this time. “Because I want the strings now. All of them.” Your thumb then brushes his cheek. “You’re mine. And I’m yours.”
Jeongin stares at you.
Still. Silent. Like the earth just tilted on its axis.
Then—finally—he exhales. A soft, stunned sound. His eyes flutter shut for half a second, and when they open again, they’re wide and warm and wrecked.
“You’re really gonna say that to me while I’m still hard?” he mutters, voice hoarse, mouth twitching like he’s trying not to smile.
You giggle. Actually giggle.
And Jeongin melts.
His hands slide down to your hips, squeeze once—possessive, reverent—and then he’s rolling, flipping the two of you in one smooth, easy motion until you’re straddling him, flushed and still catching your breath, hair wild around your face.
He looks up at you like you’re the only thing left that makes sense.
“Let me fuck you properly, baby,” he says, voice low, hungry—but laced with something new now. Something real.
You smile—wide, wicked, his. You lean down, kiss the corner of his mouth. “Then shut up and show me, Innie.”
He groans—low and fucked-out—and lets his head fall back against the pillow. “Jesus, baby—gonna be the death of me.”
You roll your hips once, just to be a menace. “Thought you said you wanted to fuck me properly.”
His hands fly back to your waist like instinct, like gravity. “I do,” he pants. “But if you keep doing that, I’m gonna wife you instead.”
You freeze—then burst out laughing. “What?”
He grins up at you, smug and wrecked. “You heard me.”
You blink. Stare down at him. “You’re such a little shit.”
“And you’re on my dick,” he shoots back. “So maybe we’re both exactly where we belong.”
You groan, drop your head to his shoulder. “God, I hate you.”
“Liar.”
“Maybe.”
He pulls you down, chest to chest and kisses your temple, wraps his arms around you like he’s never letting go. And then—just to make sure you know? He grinds against your already soaked folds.
You gasp. “Fuck—Jeongin—”
He smiles.
“Say my name again. Say I'm yours.”
“You're mine.”

What's your work schedule like? How do you manage to complete so many art projects? (I can barely even start /cries)
Most of the time my job stays pretty firmly in the 8-5 window, and most of the time I make it home for lunch. (I do work in-person 99% of the time.) The studio co-op is reserved for student use on two weeknights and mornings on the weekend, so on the other three weeknights I usually get home, get out of my suit and heels and into work clothers and head to the studio by 6 or so, pausing to grab a quick snack and pester my pets. I'm usually at the studio until 9p-1am and then go home, so those nights are not super useful for non-pottery activity. On the other weeknights, I get house chores done, or do photography for finished work, or make non-pottery art, or do my grocery runs, or whatever. It's a bit over an hour of drive time to and from the studio so I usually have a fic or audiobook on triple speed to pass the time.
Weekends are the wildcard--I have a couple DnD campaigns and a surprisingly active social life, and often shove more pottery time in on top of that, so it's not unusual for me to be at the studio until well after midnight on the weekends too. Because I have keys to the studio and can basically be there whenever I want outside of student hours, I adjust my ceramics schedule around other things a lot.
Now that it's getting light out in the evenings, I tend to get to and stay at the studio later into the night!
#sometimes I've got dead time at work while I'm waiting for my case to get called#like right now actually#need to get screenreader that goes faster than 3x

It is 2 in the morning when I’m posting this so yippie brain-rot!!!
Anyways alphabet under the cut :D
A = Affection (How affectionate are they? How do they show affection?)
Very. I mean you are kind of the only person who’s ever bothered to get close to him!
He was extremely clingy when the two of you were just friends, but now that you’re his partner? That’s increased tenfold.
He’s very unpredictable so he’s pretty much a wildcard when it comes to ways he’ll show affection.
Sometimes he’ll gently pull you along by grabbing your wrist, sometimes he’ll nuzzle into your hair or neck, maybe he’ll cup your face like you’re a glass sculpture that might shatter, and sometimes he’ll just pick you up and twirl you around. Honestly? This lovable director will show you any kind of physical affection under the sun.
I do think he particularly would like to hold your hand though. He likes the warmth of your hand in his, and how it’s so small compared to his. It’s like your hand was just made for him to hold!
Overall, any physical affection is fine by him as long as he gets to touch or hold you!
B = Best friend (What would they be like as a best friend?)
I fear having this man as a best friend because that means chaos.
Yes being in a romantic relationship with him would be chaos, but a friendship I feel would be more chaotic somehow???
Will break your door down to get an opinion on a new show he’s been working on, and will absolutely pester you until you comply.
Would probably get you to star in said show and then poke fun at you the entire time. Lovingly of course mind you!
Lots of talk sessions where the two of you just talk shit about other people because this man lives for drama, like wants the tea on everyone.
Would break into your house at 2 in the morning to steal food like a fucking rat (I say this in a loving way).
Anyways being besties with him means say goodbye to your doors because he’s kicking them all down to get your attention.
C = Cuddles (Do they like to cuddle? How would they cuddle?)
Cuddling is definitely a must!!! Like he would love to cuddle!!!
This man has no preference to cuddling he just wants to hold you close to him! Definitely big spoon no questions asked, but he also loves having you lay on his chest.
I think his favorite way to cuddle though would be on his side with you snuggled into his chest. You would probably look very small compared to him like his body would basically envelop yours, but hey he’d be very warm at least! Mr. Puzzles would probably just lazily comb through your hair with the goofiest smile on his face, whispering little words of affirmation under his breath as he did so.
D = Domestic (Do they want to settle down? How are they around the house?)
Oh definitely! But, after he becomes all rich and famous! He wants the best life for you after all!
Definitely a housewife though when he’s not busy working on his shows, like this man is a workaholic. I genuinely think he enjoys cleaning and repetitive tasks in general, helps him think.
When working on his shows or stressed? Yeah no the living space can easily become a train-wreck as he gets increasingly more frustrated over whatever he’s working on.
You could probably leave the studio on any given day, and either come back to it spotless or a wreck. There’s like a 50/50 shot whenever you leave.
E = Ending (If they had to break up with their partner, how would they do it?)
Nuh-uh, not happening, you are literally stuck with him now, and he is NEVER LETTING YOU GO. :)
Yeah that’s definitely not concerning! Good luck my guy because Mr. Puzzles has some attachment issues, and will not leave you no matter what you do!
But hey! You probably won’t get to leave him either! At least he won’t let you without a fight! (Get this man some therapy or something)
F = Fiance(e) (How do they feel about commitment? How quick would they want to get married?)
Very big on commitment honestly part of him wants all of your attention to himself, but he loves you enough to not go that far.
I think he’d be kinda iffy on marriage. On one hand he could throw this big event for the two of you, letting everyone know you’re his.
On the other, he’s fine not getting married at all! As far as he’s concerned as long as you’re completely committed to him romantically there’s not really a reason to get married?
Honestly whether he gets married to you or not would depend on your preference.
Would probably still get you an engagement ring of some kind no matter what your answer is, just so others’ know you’re committed to someone.
G = Gentle (How gentle are they, both physically and emotionally?)
Oh my god this man? Gentle as a feather physically. Emotionally? He tries to be as gentle as he can, but that temper gets the better of him sometimes.
He holds you like you are glass about to shatter, like he’s holding the most precious thing in the world.
Cups your face in his gloved hand and just admires you like the most beautiful art piece ever created. Might even lightly bump his screen against your head wondering how he got so lucky.
Most of the time he’s a bit aloof regarding your emotions he likes to tease you after all!
But in serious moments his tone will get noticeably softer as he listens, and tries to help you with whatever you are dealing with in anyway he can.
Now granted, Puzzles gets frustrated easily, and might lash out at you occasionally or straight up manipulate you, but he tries to make up for it.
Just be patient with him.
H = Hugs (Do they like hugs? What are their hugs like?)
Yes.
Hugs are a constant thing with this man he loves to hug and hold you. Though he will probably pick you up to hold you.
Most of the time he’ll come up from behind, pick you up, spin you around a bit, saying something like “There’s my little angel!”, and then hug you!
Definitely puts his screen to your head and makes a loud “mwah!” sound.
He’s a dork when it comes to hugging he wants to make you smile, that and he just likes having you close to him.
I = I love you (How fast do they say the L-word?)
After you get together?
All. The. Time.
Not in a bad way of course he wants you to know he absolutely adores you! Words of affirmation are part of his love language after all!
Says stuff like “I love you my precious starlight.” or “Gosh you’re just so cute! I truly do love you when you give me that look my dear!”
He is serious every time he says it though, but will not hesitate to fluster you with that phrase.
Can imagine him saying “I love you.” in a low husky voice to make you weak in the knees.
He likes to see you get all red in the face and become a stuttering mess. He’s a tease like that. :)
J = Jealousy (How jealous do they get? What do they do when they’re jealous?)
Puzzles has attachment issues this man gets extremely jealous very quickly.
If he thinks anyone is getting even a little touchy with you? He’s walking over, putting his arms around you, and talking to the offender with fake enthusiasm and venom in his voice.
The person doesn’t get the hint? Lightly veiled threats start coming out.
Would resort to violence as a last resort.
If it’s a more light version of jealousy he’ll probably dramatically pout in the corner with his arms crossed until you come over and give him attention.
He’s very dramatic with jealously like a dog not getting attention when it wants it.
K = Kisses (What are their kisses like? Where do they like to kiss you? Where do they like to be kissed?)
Uhhhh I mean he has a TV for a head he can’t exactly kiss you per se.
But Puzzles tries to make it work! Most commonly he’ll gently tap his screen to your head or hands with a little electric shock to give the illusion of an actual kiss.
Is not much for you kissing his screen though since he’ll have to clean it afterwards…
But you want to get this man to melt into you? He loves being kissed on the neck, or on the bottom of his TV, might as well send sparks through his entire body. Would definitely love neck bites as well.
Honestly would not care where you kiss him he’s just happy getting your affection.
L = Little ones (How are they around children?)
I think he’d be pretty good around children at least outwardly.
Probably would be trying to entertain them with cartoons or little puppet shows.
Do not think he’d actively put himself in a situation to be around children though. I don’t think he likes them very much.
M = Morning (How are mornings spent with them?)
Puzzles would get up without waking you, get dressed, get some coffee, and then would make the two of you breakfast.
You typically tend to wake up before he’s finished, but if you aren’t then he’ll gladly give you breakfast in bed!
Would make fun of you for being a sleepyhead though.
Mornings with Puzzles would start off quiet, but get progressively louder as you both wake up a bit.
N = Night (How are nights spent with them?)
I feel like nights go one of two ways.
Either A. Chaotic as hell or B. Actually nice
A chaotic as hell night includes Mr. Puzzles having some sort of mental break which results in him overworking himself and refusing to go to sleep and/or him frantically at a board with a bunch of papers on it trying to come up with ideas.
While this rarely happens it can if his shows aren’t doing as well as he would like or if you’re gone for long periods of time. The best thing to do here is gently talk to him and get him away from his area of work to help him calm down. A nice cup of hot tea or hot cocoa would help as well!
A nice night is more common though since Puzzles does think sleep is important. Probably ends with the two of you winding down by either cuddling in bed or watching TV (an actual TV though not his head he likes being able to hold you) while you two have blankets and/or hot tea to sip on.
Alternatively you two will cuddle in bed and just talk about whatever comes to mind until you two fall asleep.
O = Open (When would they start revealing things about themselves? Do they say everything all at once or wait a while to reveal things slowly?)
He’s pretty open about his past but not so much about what he doesn’t want you to see.
He shares stories from when he was a kid a lot, mainly about his mom, (I get a huge mama’s boy vibe from him) or his struggles making friends and connections until you showed up.
Also talks about his frustrations about getting into directing shows and how no corporate big shot would give him a chance so that’s how he made his own company! Also loves talking about ideas for new shows or really anything that comes to mind this man has no filter and just says what pops in his head.
He does not talk about things he doesn’t want you to know. Mainly that he smokes but he’s also definitely done some fucked up stuff in the past to get where he is today so he keeps that under wraps.
Wouldn’t want his darling angel to worry about those little hiccups~
P = Patience (How easily angered are they?)
We are literally talking about the person who sang about how ‘patience is a virtue uttered by fools’ this man has close to none.
He gets very frustrated and angry when things don’t go how he planned them to. He also can get frustrated if you don’t tell him things.
While he never tries to direct his anger at you he tends to lash out when frustrated and says things he doesn’t mean. However, he would probably apologize in the end if he really hurt you with his words.
Would never think of getting physically violent with you though he would much rather cut off his own head again than do that.
It would be very odd hot to see the man who holds you so gently be able to so easily make a sizable dent in a metal object.
Definitely has punched many holes in the walls and covered it up with something.
Q = Quizzes (How much would they remember about you? Do they remember every little detail you mention in passing, or do they kind of forget everything?)
My guy.
My buddy.
This man will remember every little thing you have told him about anything you like. He has a little notebook dedicated to writing little details about you so he doesn’t forget.
Knows just about everything you’ve either off-handedly mentioned about yourself or straight up told him.
Has various things written down like your favorite color, food, drink, cartoon, etc. Like literally anything you can think of that you could say about yourself he probably has written down.
Also has a page just describing how much he loves your looks down to the littlest detail but that’s not as important.
R = Remember (What is their favorite moment in your relationship?)
When you two officially became partners.
He was so anxious to ask on the inside but kept the outwardly performance up as he was desperately trying to figure out how to go about it.
He broke one night and frantically made a board full of ideas for what he could do, but none of them were good enough! You deserved so much more than-than this!
You just so happened to walk into this scenario but Mr. Puzzles didn’t notice you as he was too focused on his board. You heard him muttering to himself about how “this had to be perfect” and “no, no that wouldn’t-”.
You eventually got concerned and walked up to him, accidentally scaring the living daylights out of him by the way, and as he tried to stutter something out you realized just what the board was about.
You then looked at him as he was still trying to come up with an excuse and just looked at him with wide eyes as you just blurted “And here I was scrambling to figure out a way to ask you out myself.”.
Puzzles just stared at you wide eyes and shouted “Wait really!?”
Anyways that night ended with you two just watching a movie on the couch and you’ve been together ever since.
S = Security (How protective are they? How would they protect you?)
Oh very protective.
Like you get scary tall guard dog partner privileges.
Most of the time if you’re with Puzzles no one would really dare to try anything because of how tall your TV man is, but on the off chance some asshole wants to try his luck?
Well Puzzles most definitely has a kill count.
In actuality he’d probably make threats towards the person, never getting outwardly aggressive as he doesn’t like to be the one fighting, but if the aggressor tries to touch you?
All bets are fucking off.
Despite what his personality may suggest to you if it comes down to it this man can pack a punch if need be. He is deceptively strong for how he looks and could easily beat a man to death if he wanted to.
While the fight would not end with the aggressor’s death as Puzzles does not want to kill someone in front of you, there is a good chance that person might end up mysteriously dead with no evidence tracing the murder back to him later down the line.
This man is slightly unhinged when it comes to keeping you safe.
T = Try (How much effort would they put into dates, anniversaries, gifts, everyday tasks?)
This is Mr. Puzzles we’re talking about he’s going all out!
Would definitely have a fancy dinner or something equally extravagant. I can see him liking to slow dance with you in a ballroom if given the chance.
If you prefer more casual dates then hey he’s up for that too! He’s paying though no ifs, ands, or buts about it! He loves movie dates and stargazing as date ideas.
Anniversaries are an all out occasion he’s standing his ground on that one because it’s special date and he wants the entire day to be special to the both of you.
Tries to get you gifts he knows you’ll like instead of fancy things though.
Okay maybe one or two pretty rings and such but mainly things you’d actually enjoy or give that big smile at receiving. I think gift giving is one of his love languages after all so expect to have lots of little trinkets.
He tries his best to make you smile everyday so he tries a lot for you.
U = Ugly (What would be some bad habits of theirs?)
He has some… unfavorable aspects of himself he doesn’t want you knowing the true extent of.
He does not want you to know he smokes as he thinks it’s an undesirable habit and always deflects any questions about why he might smell like smoke or any cigarettes you might find.
His temper also gets the best of him at times leading to him lashing out and making dumb decisions that he tends to regret if he thinks about it too much. Though he has wrangled it in around you it can be explosive and violent when you aren’t around to witness the full extent of it.
He is also very obsessive with you and he knows it. It’s definitely toxic obsession as well because at his worst moments mentally he has debated keeping you to himself and not letting you leave. He’s also considered sabotaging all of your relationships so you only rely on him and no one else.
A dark part of him wants to keep you all to himself so no one can take you away from him ever.
Thankfully, he respects and loves you too much to act on those thoughts but god rest the poor soul that does anything bad to you because odds are…
Their life is on a very short timer.
V = Vanity (How concerned are they with their looks?)
Oh my god yes.
Yes he so is.
He wants to look his best around you 24/7 all day every day and somehow does not even have to try for it.
He needs to always look presentable because a good director should always look ready all the time!
Is dramatic as fuck if his shirt gets wrinkled or something like damsel with their hand on their head going “my poor husband” dramatic.
He’s very silly like that and you love him for it.
W = Whole (Would they feel incomplete without you?)
Yes.
You are the only person who ever really tried to get to know him, who puts up with his silly shenanigans, and who he fell in love with.
Truthfully without you? He’d completely lose it mentally because you are his rock. The one person he knows can pull him back from the darkest corners of his mind.
Not that you’d ever know this but Mr. Puzzles does. He knows that now that he has you he would not be able to live without you and continue to pretend to be even remotely sane.
X = Xtra (Random HC)
Plays his dreams or soft static on his screen when he’s in a deep sleep.
Claps his hands when excited and fidgets with his suspenders a lot.
Also makes tons of motions with his hands while he talks.
Y = You (How would they talk about you?)
This goes one of two ways.
Either he’s all giddy and cheerful like a schoolgirl with a massive crush or sounds very concerning as he talks about you like a follower would a god.
Pick your poison because both are accurate it just depends on how he’s feeling that day.
Z = Zzz (What is a sleep habits of theirs?)
Will. Not. Let. Go.
Like if you wake up before him you are not getting up because he has the grip of a koala and probably has his arms and legs wrapped all around you.
But sometimes if you wake up before him he ends up in the funniest positions like sprawled out in ways that should break his bones. It can be very funny and disturbing at the same time.
