DATING SEUNGKWAN INCLUDES…. — sfw

• he’s definitely the type of person to call you pookie.

• he uses the term “gyat” whenever he sees your butt. not in a sexual way, someone pls take away tiktok from him.

• his go to nickname for you is DEFINITELY boo — he thinks he’s soooo creative for this.

• he is constantly thinking of you. whenever he's buying groceries he always asks if you need something, before he makes plans with someone else he makes sure you don't want to hang out, or he thinks carefully about what he says to you incase he hurts your feelings with his jokes.

• he treats you like his personal diary. seungkwan was used to writing in his journal every night before you two started dating. you are the one person he truly feels "seen" with.

• y'all once had a phase in your relationship in which he would wake you up at the crack of dawn to exercise with him.

• one day you decided to drag him to a pilates class. he complained the entire way there, but ended up loving it. now it's HIM that drags you to the class.

• he makes sure you take your vitamins ! he's definitely the type to prioritize your health more than you do.

• if y'all aren't together for the day and you tell him you haven't eaten, there's definitely gonna be a food delivery at your door within the next hour or so.

• he's the type to get SLIGHTLY jealous, but after some reassuring he would let it go quickly.

• i'm ngl, he's not against being the big spoon, but he probably prefers little spoon tbh.

• he makes sure you know all the iconic korean songs word for word from back in the day. if you can't sing every single girl’s generation song start to finish with him, you're gonna get side eyed.

• whenever you two are separated because of touring or work, y'all are definitely the type of couple to FaceTime 24/7 and have meals together. you two also fall asleep while on the call.

• he was SO SO nervous when meeting your parents for the first time he thought he was going to pass out.

• he is NOT a morning person. he gets so sassy, sometimes you have to give him that mom look.

• seungkwan constantly praises you and makes sure you never doubt yourself.

• before you two started dating, it was actually really easy to make him flustered. he blushed with everything you did and every word you said. the rest of seventeen ended up having to play matchmaker because he was too shy to make a move.

• karaoke dates are a MUST !!!!

• y’all are the type of couple to go to disney with matching shirts and mickey mouse ears.

• he would try and teach you badminton, but gets frustrated and ends up just having you be his cute lil cheerleader on the sidelines.

• y’all typically always meet at a cafe to have a coffee or grab a bite on your lunch breaks.

• he has made it a tradition to sing you a ballad on your birthday. you look forward to it every year.

• he forces you to do face masks with him or indulge in self care nights. you don’t care though cause who can say no to a bubble bath with him.

• he would definitely pass the orange peel theory.

• you have a folder in your camera roll specifically dedicated to photos of him that would make good memes.

• you’re really close to both of his sisters and tend to go out on cute girls nights with them. sometimes seungkwan tries to worm his way along to make sure y’all aren’t talking shit about him lol.

• y’all have promise rings !!!

• he actually has your proposal planned down to the t. i’m talking ring, place, and moment.

• he’s such an active person that loves to do a bunch of activities, but it’s nice because it gets you out of the house.

• seungkwan is a person who constantly has to be doing something otherwise he feels unproductive so having you around definitely brings him down to earth. you’re the only person able to get him to relax.

• he always has a bunch of snacks on him so if you ever get hungry, don’t worry. you know who to ask.

• at the end of the day when y’all are cuddled up in bed together, you two typically watch dramas to fall asleep. it’s kind of difficult though because kwannie gets so into it and sometimes yells at the t.v :/

NCT Dream and 7 days with them.

Mark Lee ; Sunday church and brunch date

Sundays with Mark meant that it is the only time that he can live up to his faith. Sure, you're not really of that religious person but you're willing for your boyfriend. You two visit the nearest church around your place and would dedicate a small portion of your morning to attend it. You admire your boyfriend's dedication and faith so you just sit there and try to sink in what the priest's preaches. After church, you two would go out to have a brunch date! It'll compose of pastries and light breakfast while you two slowly sink in the cozy Sunday morning ambiance.

Huang Renjun ; Lazy Monday mornings

Monday mornings are the most dreadful time of the week. It wouldn't help either if your boyfriend is already whining that he's sleepy despite sleeping early that night. You have to drag him out of the bed because he's been pestering you with "five more minutes" every time you wake him up. When you succeeded with waking Renjun up, he'll be clinging to you like a koala bear as you drag him towards that the dining room where you prepared a heavy breakfast for him so that he can be fully-awake. <3

Lee Jeno ; Tuesday cinema promos

Tuesdays is when cinemas at your mall have promos. It can be the time where you drag Jeno to watch a movie with him. He's not really a huge fan of movies but hey, he can't complain when there's a promo. He'll be the type to pick the most random time slot like 10 am or 2:30 in the afternoon because the movie house is usually not crowded (especially on a Tuesday.) you two will watch the movie in silence, probably munch on the promo snacks you two bought and after the movie, you two would go eat inside the mall, reviewing the movie and whether or not the money was worth it. 

Lee Donghyuck ; Vacant Wednesdays

Wednesdays with Haechan can be a weird occurrence. It's that type of day where you two don't know what to do, stucked in the middle of week and pondering whether you two should do something productive or not. Some Wednesday, you two would go out and probably do a small shopping at the mall because you two want to buy out of impulse. Some Wednesday, you two are just in your apartment. Maybe sleeping the whole day away or doing a random deep cleaning as early as eight in the morning. 

Na Jaemin ; Happy Drunk Thursday

Thursdays with Jaemin meant Happy T! You two don't have any classes every Friday, so you two have planned to get drunk on a Thursday night. You two would dress up, do a pre-game at your place with a few bottles of beer or maybe a small bottle of vodka, then go straight to a club where you two dance the night away. Tons of people would either: hit up on you or Jaemin especially when one leaves the other to go the rest room, that's why don't be surprise if Jaemin has his arms around your waist the whole night. Maybe steals a kiss on you or two while giggling tipsily. 

Zhong Chenle ; Friday night-out

Fridays are the best especially when you have Chenle. You two would always find a way to make your Friday night the life of a party. If not going out to drink, Chenle would be the type to drag you to a karaoke bar just to sing your lungs out. Of course there will be drinks but singing >>> anything else. Friday nights are always an adrenaline for you two, one time, you two even rented an electric scooter and drove it around the empty streets of the city at an ungodly hour of 2 am. 

Park Jisung ; Saturday morning walks at the beach

Despite being a rest day, you and Jisung would try to be productive even though Saturdays can be so boring. Jisung would drag you out at five in the morning when the sun is barely out and it's a bit chilly. He'll drive you two at the local beach where a lengthy baywalk can be located. For once, Jisung would always tell you that you two should try to be fit by walking or maybe jogging at the beach. So walking it is. It'll be peaceful walk, with you two holding hands, as you two talk quietly while admiring the beach while the sun slowly rises.

Little moments that I love in Red White and Royal Blue. PART 5 🙈

Henry playing 5D chess by ignoring Alex, forcing him to think about Henry for the rest of the party lmao

Alex literally spends half the party staring at Henry and other half getting drunk (because of well..... *drumroll* Henry)

Alex needing a cushion to save himself from Zahra

His face is so serious, he is battle ready here 🤣

I love this moment! Henry here, totally lost in thought, vulnerable and powerless in the face of his unrequited love, completely alone, that is until Alex finds him (he always does 🤧).

I love how Henrys need to disconnect from the world was always met with Alex's "not without me" even before their relationship started. And Alex subconsciously always needing to be with Henry (remember the royal wedding and his "henryyyYY, long time no see 🤣)

Look at their faces coming out of the red room. Alex is trying so hard to look casual like he did not just fiercely make out with the Prince of England. And Henry trying to stifle a big grin. He fails haha and he doesn't stop smiling until Alex promises to do "bad things" to him 😂

And their brains are so in sync

-"So, are you still..?"

-"Like Stonehenge"

-"Your royal hardness..... or big Ben"

-"Nelson's Column"

this and their deliveries - peak comedy 👌

Alex trying be cheeky and trying to shut the door on his royal highness 😩 "you're late" 😮‍💨

but giving in to his authority 0.2 seconds later 😂 like boy you never really stood a chance, no one or nothing was getting in the way of Henry this time

I love how Alex looks a little surprised at how Henry says they have to "keep it very casual", his face says he wasn't expecting this at all (like hello! He was being romantic, holding Henry's hand while asking to be together again 😩 and Henry told him earlier how he liked him for so long). Alex tries to work out in his head as to why Henry would need them to be casual and can only think of press as the reason (it's not you Alex, he loves you 🥺)

Alex and Henry looking up at each other with bedroom eyes 😍🔥😩

One needs superpowers to survive their looks 🥵

Henry enjoying the heck out of the karaoke and I love how that was the moment picked to show that Alex was in love 🤧😍 it was beautiful! And Taylor with his hearteyes 😩😩😩❤️

Part 1

Part 2

Part 3

Part 4

Seokmin in a relationship

He is really lowkey about his feelings at the start, not wanting too much attention on him or you for that matter.

When you are finally in a relationship he'd be the type to always match your energy. I know a lot of people see him as super hyper 24/7 but tbh he's pretty chill with you. Just always smiling slightly cause he loves being near you.

Dates with him would be really cute . A lot of the time you'd both get dressed to go out and just as your about to leave you'll make eye contact and one of you will say "wanna stay home and order in?" the other will reply with something along the lines of "we could sing karaoke or watch some sappy movie". You'd both be rushing to take off your shoes and just be comfortable at home.

When you do go out it's usually seokmin being hyper and you balancing him out with your chill aura. He'd be arguing with seungkwan during game night and you'd be sitting there smiling behind him.

Whenever you do get all hyper and loud during an especially intense game of mafia he'd be your #1 fan. Like "THATS MY GIRL" and if you do some crazy plot twist inspired by hoshi ofc he'd be screaming up and down (is so proud of you)

The members simultaneously love and hate seeing him so in love with you. Like you'd be all quiet and straight faced in a corner and he'd be infront of you smiling, eyes twinkling lovingly.

Wouldn't be too into pda but would occasionally hold your hand when your sitting down together. Sometimes when at a house party with all the members and their partners he'd think he was in a hidden corner and kiss you GOOD cause he just thinks you look so hot and can't not.

(Sidenote: you guys weren't hidden and seungkwan was gagging at you two)

He'd call you babe or a nickname from you real name when with other people but when you're alone or he thinks no one can hear he'll whisper "hey beautiful/love" with a twinkle in his eyes. Likes to keep the intimacy of such names something between only you and him.

When he kisses you he needs to get more than one. For example while his cooking and you walk into the kitchen he turns and gives you a peck while his hands are busy mixing the soup. Immediately after he lowers the heat and wipes his hands on cloth to pull you in again "one more beautiful" he'd whisper and kiss you with so much more passion, this one would last longer. After, he won't move though, he'd rest his forehead on yours and just breathe in your scent. "I'm making your favourite" he'd say after a while. It takes an effort for him to turn back to the simmering soup. He just can't get enough of you.

He is the most observant person you know. A subtle change in the way you feel is noticed. Whether you are getting excited or overthinking or even falling into contentment he can tell and knows what to do. If you ask him why he always seems to know what you need he replies simply "gut feeling, everytime. My stomach loves just as much as my heart" he smiles brightly. You wonder if he can tell how grateful you are to the universe for bringing him to you.

A/n: seokmin is my bias in svt and I've just been having c4azy daydreams of being with him, I needed to get this out of my system. Please be nice this is my first time writing something. (Constructive critism is always welcome, even though I did this for fun and it isn't anything serious)

[iphyslitterator]

I don't know if this is a point that needs defending, but I feel strongly that Tommy's love language is quality time.

Evidence with Buck:

We've already talked extensively about how Tommy Shows Up to the wedding even sooty and exhausted.

At the bachelor party, he's not especially demonstrative, but he's THERE when he's sleepy and on standby and the party sucks, and he only leaves when he's called in to work.

They don't touch at the medal ceremony (I headcanon that they agreed not to), but Tommy sits next to him, stands next to him, goes through the buffet line with him.

Offering flying lessons and Muay Thai lessons: This isn't really an act of service, because neither of these is actually useful to Buck -- but they are a way to spend time together. The Muay Thai conversation is literally, "Of course you'd rather hang out with Eddie" / "I'll teach you so you can hang out with me too!"

In the first kiss scene and the 7x10 date night, Tommy shares his own feelings of jealousy. Words of affirmation would have stayed on Buck (you're great, you have nothing to be jealous of, your birth father doesn't deserve you); switching to himself puts the quality in quality time (we're bonding, we're having a deep conversation, this is reciprocal).

And with EDDIE. oh BOY:

Goes to his house THREE TIMES in the first TWO WEEKS, I'm still hung up on this, that's so fast.

Muay Thai

Working on cars

Karaoke trivia night

Basketball

Trip to Vegas: Kind of an act of service/gift, but if it was easy for him to get the tickets, the emphasis is more on spending a significant amount of time together.

Again. It's been a few WEEKS.

I suspect Tommy is amazing at words of affirmation when necessary, and I like to imagine he's big on romantic touch. But what we've seen of him in season 7 leans heavily toward Being Together, rather than Doing Things, as the way he expresses interest. Thank you for coming to my TED Talk.

[bucksdaffy]

Okay, let's talk about development. Buddie shippers love to throw shade at Tommy. So, quick question: it's been 5 years now, where is Eddie's character development? Since Season 3, he has been suffering because of his wife and has run away from a new relationship. He's in the same place as in Season 7. The truth is, Buddie shippers don't care about Eddie's character. They see Eddie as an extension of Buck. Buck manages to get some self-improvement. We can see his changes from Season 1 to now. Eddie? They don’t care; they're too worried about karaoke scenes and their only concern is to make Buddie canon

Sorry, that annon got me so nervous

truth be told, the show favours buck, and eddie is often neglected in terms of development. i must admit i actually saw some eddie-leaning bobs express frustration about this early on when it was revealed that a gay eddie arc was under consideration before tim and co ultimately decided on a bi buck storyline. but their voices were pretty drowned out by the constant yapping of how the show could make buddie canon, and now it's hard to see anything else.

i think you're right in saying bobs don't care about eddie as a character. but i'd even go so far as to say they don't care about buck either. superficially? sure because they both are part of the ship they love. but in reality? i wouldn't be so sure about that.

because the thing is they don't seem to think about buck and eddie as separate individuals. they always make one's storyline about the other. there is no buck without eddie and no eddie without buck in their eyes.

when you love a character, i think it's only natural that you want them to be happy. but when you love a ship more, your brain is wired to believe that the only way for them to be happy is if said ship ends up together. i don't want to condemn anyone for their feelings and choices because it's everyone's right to enjoy what they want to enjoy. you can't force anyone to change their view on that. i just wish they admitted they are not actually buck defenders or eddie defenders – they are just full-on buddie shippers, and that's it. don't pretend you care about them as individuals because it's obvious it's not true.

bobs don't care that buck is now in a happy relationship with a man who treats him as his equal, doesn't glorify him, understands what it means to be a firefighter, supports him, and makes an effort to be there for him when he needs him. they don't care that he is good for buck right now. they want tommy gone because he stands in the way of buddie canon (does he really? not the fact that eddie is canonically still very much heterosexual?), and because the audience seems to enjoy him much more than they anticipated. and they don't even care about an amicable break-up anymore – i saw some bobs say they want tommy dead. now you can't tell me you care about buck if you wish for his love interest to die. it's fine if you don't like tommy and if you personally think buck would be happier with someone else. let's agree to disagree and move on. but when you wish to seriously traumatize (one of) your favourite(s) character(s) in order for your ship to become canon? that just shows where your priorities lie, and i can guarantee that most people will disagree with you.

when it comes to eddie, he doesn't have the happiest storyline right now, and hasn't for a while. but if/when in s8 or some later season (provided they get renewed for more) he gets the development he deserves, and finally finds someone who he truly likes (and that someone isn't buck) and treats right, or perhaps decides that being single is fine and lets go of the pressure to be in a romantic relationship, do you think they'll be happy for him? i highly doubt so. they'll still push for buddie canon, not taking into account the individual characters of the story and their needs. what matters is that they get what they want, and everything and everyone else can go to hell.

if that is your stance, i personally think you should just quit watching the show and move to ao3 full-time for your and everyone else's own good. tim and co will not make buddie canon just because you want them to. it has to make sense for both buck and eddie individually first. and right now that is not the case for either of them.

[foxes-that-run]

Perfect

Zayn said he wouldn’t buy the record when he heard Perfect (so salty!). Harry's emotions varied performing it in its short 27 performance run from Oct-Dec when 1D ended. These 2 stand out:

November 20 2015, rather than sing the Bridge Harry said to the crowd "if you think it's so funny you can sing it".

3 days later at the AMAs he rolls his eyes and looks ready to walk out, the camera cuts to a kid who seems to agree. (Bridge is 2:40).

It was only performed 6 more times, in Carpool Karaoke (10:30) Harry stops singing for parts and the song cuts before the bridge, at the Jingle ball he looks away and the last time was new years.

Or this concert he put the mike into the crowd, someone stole the microphone and licked it.

Safe to say he regretted that bridge, it's savage to them both.

Writers

Perfect ties with Fools Gold for the title of the Haylor song with the most writers, at 7. While Fools Gold has all 5 of the band, Bunetta and Ryan. Harry and Louis are the only band members who worked on Perfect with Bunetta, Ryan and 3 others:

Jesse Shatkin, (cowrote Sia's Chandelier)

Jacob Kasher (Maroon 5 collaborator), and

Mozella (cowrote Miley Cyrus Wrecking Ball and Fools Gold.)

To me, Perfect has more media grabbing pop-song than Harry Styles. HS’s best 1D work was with teams of 3 or 4 writers. In fact, Bunetta said Olivia came out in 45 minutes while overworking another "less good" MITAM song.

Timeline

Bunetta also told Rolling Stone about Perfect:

"That one took a long time, just because it was written over a couple different continents. It started as one thing and ended up where it is."

MITAM was made in the summer of 2015. To have been written in a couple of continents and with USA based writers it was probably either side of the BBMAs. It could have been started 'as one thing' in April in South Africa before the BBMAs other songs that reference Style including Two Ghosts started early in the year. The "ended up where it is" with those writers would be after the BBMAs, when they got back to the USA from July. This would be at the end of the album and he was singing it daily within 3 months.

Similarity to Taylors songs

It has the same chord progressions as Style and is also very similar to out of the woods as this video on Twitter shows. He called it a love song in the made in the AM interview (6 mins) and that it wasn’t literal in another. I do love this James Cordon bit and I love his Taylor smile so much.

Lyrics

[Verse 1: Louis] I might never be your knight in shinin' armour I might never be the one you take home to mother And I might never be the one who brings you flowers But I can be the one, be the one tonight

Grapejuice, has the perfect (get it) call back to this verse, along with 'Red' and 'Pay for it' and I love him for it:

"I was on my way to buy some flowers for you (ooh) / Thought that we could hide away in a corner of the heath / There's never been someone who's so perfect for me / But I got over it and I said / "Give me somethin' old and red" / I pay for it more than I did back then"

[Pre-Chorus: Liam] When I first saw you from across the room I could tell that you were curious, oh, yeah Girl, I hope you're sure what you're looking for 'Cause I'm not good at making promises

Promises come up again in Woman "Promises are broken like a stitches is", which is interesting if both Woman and part of Perfect are written after the 2015 BBMAs.

‘Know what you are looking for’ is interesting. In "Say don't go" and the 1989 TV Vaults in general Taylor did not get what she was looking for. At 23, dating a 19 year old Taylor told us she didn’t get wavy she needed. Her most recent ex, JG was 29. (yes - JG was the age Harry is now! Imagine if he did that) So I kind of stand by this line.

The start refers to the night they met. Which neither has ever confirmed, I think it was in 2011 (see timeline) Many look at the coat he tries on in the music video, which matches both his Up All Night Tour outfit (from December 2011) and the 2012 Kids Choice Awards. The awards are fun though. The Up All Night DVD also has it.

[Verse 2: Niall] I might never be the hands you put your heart in Or the arms that hold you any time you want them But that don't mean that we can't live here in the moment 'Cause I can be the one you love from time to time

Urgh I choose to attribute 'love from time to time' to one of the 6 other people writing this. To me this line always sounds like a boy-band heartthrob priority playing out in the writers room. No wonder it took time and HS1 to overcome this.

However, this does speak to a theme of them not being available to each other because of their careers and 1D punishing schedule. If I could fly's "I'm missing half of me when we're apart" and Half the World Aways " So you're not my girlfriend / Don't pretend that makes us nothing / Tell me you don't miss this feeling" speaks more honestly to the interplay of his band image, schedules and priorities which Taylor referred to Suburban Legends.

[Chorus: Harry, All] But if you like causing trouble up in hotel rooms And if you like having secret little rendezvous If you like to do the things you know that we shouldn't do Then, baby, I'm perfect Baby, I'm perfect for you And if you like midnight driving with the windows down And if you like goin' places we can't even pronounce If you like to do whatever you've been dreamin' about Then, baby, you're perfect Baby, you're perfect So let's start right now

Here are Haylor themes we know and love, Driving at midnight (Style, HYGTG, Wish You Would) generally going from a high schooler to superstar overnight (placed they can’t pronounce like Cannes), and hidden love/hiding (I Know Places, Slut!)

[Bridge: Harry] And if you like cameras flashin' every time we go out Oh, yeah And if you're looking for someone to write your breakup songs about Then baby, I'm perfect And baby, we're perfect

The camera’s flashing is good imagery and his voice brings to life how personally challenging it was for them both in a way I Know Places didn't with very few words. Taylor also refers to this imagery in Is it over now?

But the break up songs is a low blow and I assume the part he regretted to the point of not wanting to sing it. In a later interview Harry said:

“The only time you really think, ’is this song too personal?’ is if you think about, ‘is this going to be really annoying for the other person?’ Because I do [care],” he finished.

Which I think the break up song line would have been very annoying.

If you made it through that reward yourself with Grapejuice at Wembley 🍇

Breaking Bad Season 4 (MS Paint)

-- HE SAID IT! "YOU! ARE NOT THE GUY! YOU'RE NOT CAPABLE OF BEING THE GUY, I HAD A GUY BUT NOW I DON'T~ YOU! ARE NOT! THE GUY~" I've heard part of the breaking bad remix before I even saw the show.

-- I really struggle to tell if Walt genuinely cares for Jesse or if it's just because he can easily manipulate him.

Hongice week 2024 || Day 2

Chapter 2: Is it possible to die from embarrassment?

Chapters: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7

Human AU

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

Months passed and Li and Emil became close friends. They always met after school to do something like going to the movies or for coffee; but if they had a lot of homework or a group work they would meet at each other's house to work. During these meetings, Li met Mathias, who visited Lukas every day and was like a big brother to Emil. Li became friends with Mathias and his friends. Eventually, Li became popular, but he didn’t care anymore because he was starting to have feelings for Emil.

Li was in his room reflecting on his time with Emil, realising that what he feels is more than friendship.

“What's wrong with you Li? You've been acting weird for days”

“Mei?! What are you doing here?”

“I can't find my pen and I came to ask you if I could borrow yours, but you don't listen to me”

“What? How long have you been here?”

“For half an hour, this is the fourth time I'm asking you”

“Oh, right. It's on my desk”

When Mei went to pick up the pen, she realised something.

“Are you in love with Emil?”

“What?! Why do you say that?”

“You wrote his name many times in your notebook. Besides that your desk is full of pictures of you...that explains why the printer is out of ink”

“Does writing his name and printing our photos indicate that I am in love with him? I don't think so”

“One of the photos is in the heart-shaped frame I gave you last year”

“...I've run out of frames”

“It's the only frame you have; the other pictures are taped on your desk”

At that moment Li realised that he couldn't hide it any longer. He was in love with Emil and he had to tell him.

“How do I tell him that I’m in love?”

“Prepare something nice for him, like sing to him outside his house”

“How about if I invite him here to watch a movie and then I'll tell him?”

“You always watch movies here”

“Yes, but we do it after doing our homework. This time we'll just watch the movie”

“Li, you don't know anything about romance”

“Besides, knowing you, you're going to want to see another Jackie Chan movie," said Yong Soo who heard the conversation from outside, "also, remember that you lost the bet”

Being prom king and queen allowed the whole school to get to know Yong Soo and Mei, so it didn't take long for their popularity to grow. However, it took Li longer to gain Emil's trust.

“By the way, brat, your pen ran out of ink," added Yong Soo.

“You moron!” Mei replied as she gave him a few bumps.

“Back on topic, how do I propose?”

“I insist on singing outside his house”

“To do that you have to lose your fear of singing. That's why you're going to debut tomorrow at the karaoke,” said Yong Soo.

The siblings go to karaoke once a month. Yong Soo and Mei are the ones who sing while Li and Yao just listen to them.

“NO! Of course not! I'm not going to sing!”

“How about singing a duet with someone?” Mei proposed.

“...okay”

………………………………………….

“Why should I sing with Li?” Yao asked annoyed.

“Because he's afraid to do it alone," said Mei.

“Why not one of you?”

“Because you have to debut too," said Yong Soo.

“And why did you wait until we got here to tell me?”

“Li, are you ready for your debut?” Yong Soo asked, ignoring Yao's question.

“Yes, but wouldn't it have been better to practice before coming here so as not to make a fool of myself?”

“Maybe," replied Yong Soo.

“At least we're the only ones here," Li remarked, since it was only them in the karaoke room, "By the way, what are we going to sing?”

“Don't worry, I chose a song according to your standards," said Yong Soo.

“No kpop!” Yao shouted.

“Yeah, I know”

The instrumental of the song Loser, baby started playing and Yong Soo pointed at Li to start singing. Li got nervous and didn't say anything, so they stopped the music.

“Li!” Yong Soo shouted.

“There's no one else, just us," added Mei.

“Well”

They turned the music back on and Li started singing. At first he felt embarrassed, but at one point he felt confident and let himself go, since this is a song he really likes.

While they were singing, Mathias, Lukas and Emil came in, but Li didn't notice, he was more focused on the screen with the lyrics of the song. The one who did notice them was Yao, so he did his best to make sure Li didn't notice so he could sing confidently.

“Aren't those Li and Yao singing over there?” said Mathias.

“It seems so;" said Emil, "but Li told me he didn't like to sing”

“If he was encouraged to go up there and sing, you should do it and so should you Lukas”

“Of course not!” said the brothers in unison. When the three of them went to karaoke, only Mathias was encouraged to sing.

“I will convince you somehow”

When they finished singing, the others applauded. Mathias stood up and raised his arms to applaud them.

“Bravo! Bravo!” Mathias shouted.

Li turned to look at Mathias and noticed that Emil was with him, so he felt embarrassed and just wanted to disappear.

“Hi Mathias!” Yong Soo said as he walked over to say hello. Mei and Yao followed him. Li wanted to run away, but Emil saw him and waved.

“Hello Li”

“Hi Emil,” he replied, looking confident, but he was nervous.

“I liked the way you sang”

“Really? Or are you just saying that to be nice?”

“No, I’m serious”

“Oh, thank you..." Li felt more confident and realised that Mei’s idea might work.

…………………………………………………

“Do you think it will work?”

“Yes, Emil will love it," Mathias replied enthusiastically.

“OK, if you say so" said Li with some insecurity.

Li was in front of Emil's house with some friends, including Mathias and a speaker. Suddenly an instrumental version of "Just the way you are" by Bruno Mars started to play, Li started to sing the song while the rest of them sang along. This caught the attention of Emil and his family, so they all came out to see what it was all about.

After finishing the song, Li confessed his feelings to Emil and asked him if he wanted to be his boyfriend. Emil accepted, trying to hide his excitement but failing, making it obvious to everyone that he was very happy.

“See Emil, I told you he liked you back," said Mathias.

“You don't have to mention that in front of everyone," replied Emil in annoyance.

To be continued...

@hongiceweek sorry I'm late!!

[i-want-all-the-cookies]

Hey, it's me, crawling back after being gone for a while 🥸. Unfortunately I've had to deal with a series of unfortunate events in my life. One of which was losing my notes (AGAIN) 😭. Soo in the attempt to try and get back into the swing of things, I'm gonna post some of my story wip ideas in hopes that it will motivate me enough to actually start writing again.

Note: I'm not including my Jimmy, Forrest, or Philip fics as those have already been started. This is just for wips of fics I only have minimal notes on right now.

Wolf fic

Wolf/Reader or OC

Found friends, unlikely friendship, wrong number, catching feelings for a stranger, dealing with grief

Summary: You're left with an empty hole in your soul after the loss of a great friend. A void that you attempt to fill as you reach out to find some kind of closure. Basically, you wrong dial/text Wolf. He humors you at first with responding, since he's bored and finds your messages entertaining enough to pass the time. But somewhere along the line feelings start to develop, even though he's never even seen your face. Most of this story takes place over messages and almost encounters.

Wolf fated mates fic

Wolf/OC or reader

Enemies-lovers, rivals-lovers, semi forced proximity (both are union members having to deal with union shi), fated mates au, no shifting, mate reveal at age 18, you know before he does, trying to be the bigger person is HARD

Summary of sorts: A member of the union under Yeo-Il. Think Donald's a huge ass but the pay can't be beat, even when having to deal with other union members like Wolf. Especially Wolf. Who you can't seem to get along with from the very first encounter. You both are basically water and oil having to coexist in the same space. But then you turn 18 a couple months before he does, and realize that destiny has played you for a fool, by making Wolf your fated mate. So now you're left trying to figure out what to do next.

Notes: was reading waay to many werewolf stories during the creation of this story idea 🙃

Donald fic

Donald/OC or reader

Oppites attract, aged up characters, both already in the workforce, forced proximity due to work, one night stand not staying a one night stand, very low spice (for now anyway), mostly just sexual tension, expanding on one of my oneshots

Summary-ish: A crazy night out with friends leads to an unexpected one night stand with a dangerous but handsome looking stranger. You check it off as a very delightful YOLO experience, never expecting to meet "what's his name" again. Until you find yourself sitting in a conference room, while your boss introduces the new business partner your company is doing a collaboration with. And if that wasn't awkward enough, you get voted to be the employee to spearhead the details of this new business merger.

Notes: this came about when I mentioned to someone about how cute it would be if Donald developed feelings for someone like the character in my karaoke crackfic. A very opposites attract that just happens to work despite their differences. Only for them to shot that idea down and state he would be better off with someone like one of their own OC's, who's more like him 😐🤨😮‍💨

Welp, challenge accepted I guess.

Jake 7 minutes in heaven fic

Jake/OC or reader

Quiet and reserved character meets popular and outgoing character, opposites attract, 7 minutes of heaven game, forced proximity due to game, aged up characters, college au, college frat party, fish out of water

Summary: You get dragged to some frat party by your more outgoing and social bestie, only to be left alone while they make out with some rando. While trying to blend in and look like you belong you end up getting paired up for a round of 7 minutes in heaven, and before you can even begin to protest, you end up locked in a closet with Jake Ji.

Notes: Haven't decided how spicy I want to make this one. Should I make it more suggestive in nature?  Or should I crank the spice level all the way up 🌶🔥😈

Alright. That's it. Now to wait for some motivation vibes to come and find me.

Also, completely unrelated, but is it just me or have the porn bots uped their game while I've been m.i.a? Like not only are they "following" but now they're also liking posts? And not even locking their accounts, so when you click on the profiles you get an eyeful of "activity"! Like wut in the... left me completely shooketh.

one too many shots | ot23

g: fluff, crack | PLATONIC ot23, female reader | wc: 2.1k | warnings: drunk reader, mentions of feeling high but I assure you nobody's on drugs here lmao

AN: I wrote this "drabble" I know this is too long for a drabble but leave me alone lol during the resonance era and this blog was nothing but a blog i only really use for reading when i wondered how would be NCT ot23 going to be as a friend with you being drunk.

As a celebration for the successful promotion of NCT 2020 Resonance, everyone decided to rent a private villa that could accommodate all 24 of you and a few managers. 

Johnny and Taeil planned the whole get together meaning there would be liquor and a karaoke machine. You know half of the group are heavy drinkers and the other half drink occasionally. Even Jisung, who just turned legal, already had his first champagne and first soju. 

You on the other hand still have a virgin liver. You haven't tasted a single drop of alcohol yet and you're embarrassed to admit that so you pretended that you're a casual drinker. 

You sat in between Jeno and Jaemin, the two people you know who wouldn’t hand you a drink, but to your bad luck Ten is seated in front of you and handed you shot after shot. Sometimes Jeno and Jaemin are taking the shots for you but you always insist that you can drink them yourself. You may try to hide it, but everyone here knows you don't drink and Ten is being cheeky for calling your bluff. 

10 whiskey shots later and 7 glasses of coke for your chaser, you stopped seeing the world normally. You thought your head was up but they're definitely leaning on Jaemin’s shoulder now. Everyone is laughing at you but they all share a concerning look.

Ten was about to hand you another shot when Kun stopped him. “Stop giving her drinks. She can't handle her alcohol.” 

“I wasn't really going to give it to her. I'm just teasing her.” Ten explained.

“Well stop teasing her because she keeps drinking everything you hand her.” Doyoung butted in. 

“Okay somebody help me I'm going to barf-” Jisung went up and ran to the nearest bathroom making Chenle roll his eyes to the back of his head and followed his friend that is currently throwing his gut out in the toilet. Doyoung followed them after. 

You snapped your head to follow the sight of Jisung running across the room, but you quickly realized that was a stupid thing to do. Your sudden movement felt like the end of you, you were so dizzy your gut feels like it's going to empty itself any second now.

Jaehyun sensed what's happening to you, he walked to you and gripped you by one arm as he tried to help you stand up from your seat. “Come on, let's get you to the bathroom.” He mumbled but you took back your arm.

“No, I'm not drunk.” The way you said it proves that you're undeniably drunk which made everyone giggle. Jaehyun gave you a disbelieving look. “What? Jisung’s drunk. Go after him before he flush himself in the toilet.” Your gestures look like you're just flailing your arms in the air and you feel so light you almost feel like you're high.

“Y/N’S DRUNK.” Lucas laughed at you and you snapped your head to him which you once again regret doing but can’t stop from doing it again. “Iiim not drunk bich.” You answered as you pointed your finger at him, which finger, you don't know anymore. 

You hiccuped and gagged that made everyone panic, making them grab anything near them that could catch your vomit. Jeno quickly disappears from your side only to be found on the other side of the room. 

“Faalse alarm!” you said proudly, “They all went back in hehe.”

“Yuck.” Winwin said in disgust, you looked at him offended. His face is red and is also visibly drunk by the way his head leaning on Lucas’ shoulder. 

Taeyong who has been quiet the whole time decided to help Jaehyun get you to the washroom. You fought back and stubbornly folded your arms together. Mark was also helping convince you to go to the bathroom to freshen up but you didn't understand a word he said. He just sounded like a bee buzzing near your ear with a heavy head that he cannot seem to carry anymore. 

“Mark stop talking and head to the bathroom first.” Taeyong said while laughing. 

“Yeah, head to the bathroom first!” you repeated. 

“You stop talking too.” Jaehyun told you as he tried to pull you up from your seat. You lost all your strength to fight back so you obliged instead. 

Taeyong and Jaehyun, as responsible older members as they are, helped you wash your face with cold water and helped you brush your teeth by putting toothpaste on your toothbrush and watching your flimsy hand find it’s way to your mouth. They left you alone for a minute when you needed to pee but Taeyong held on to the knob of the door from the outside to make sure you wouldn't lock it. 

They're walking you to your assigned room when you hear the other members laughing in the living area, “I want to go back.” You whined. 

Jaehyun and Taeyong shared a look, they talked through their eyes and decided to put you to bed already. You've had one too many drinks and you might drink more now that alcohol magically tastes like water to you.

“I think it's best for you to rest and sle-” Taeyong didn't finish his sentence when you saw Jungwoo and Sungchan rounded around the corner. 

“Jungwoo!” and you clung to him like a sloth. “Jungwoo help me get out of here.” You whispered loudly to him that everyone in your vicinity heard it. 

Jungwoo is sweet enough to tell Jaehyun and Taeyong that they will take care of you. Sungchan on the other hand is kind enough to let Jungwoo decide for him that he will take care of a drunken person aka you. 

Jaehyun just shrugged and left but Taeyong left the two with a verbal list of things to do and not to do. After it Jungwoo and Sungchan walked you back to the living room and seated you in between them. 

You saw Ten lurking around you and now feeling guilty for giving you way too many shots for your first time because he knows there's a chance that you won't remember the good time you've had tonight. 

The night continued with Taeil and Haechan still unbothered with their karaoke machine and Johnny taking out a bottle of Bacardi in the late night. You looked around to see who's going to drink them. All of them are still here, are you seriously the only one who got drunk on whiskey? 

Still trying to look tough, you texted Johnny telling him to include you in the round of rum. 

You have no idea how much alcohol you could only take, but they know. 

Johnny forwarded your text to the other members and they went busy for a minute on their phones before putting them back down, 

“Okay y/n’s going to drink again!” Johnny announced and they all hyped you up like crazy. 

Shotaro is the one handing you your shots. They look like they aren’t shots anymore. He’s been giving you your drinks in a red cup. You would never have thought Shotaro would be this wild to give you rum in a cup but you take it like the tough woman you are. 

The alcohol glides down your throat easier than the whiskey shots you took, now you're having fun. 

Little did you know it was Shotaro’s idea to give you (and Jisung) water instead. A way to keep both of you around for tonight and keep you away from a terrible hangover the next morning. 

They would yell and cheer every time you finish your ‘shot’ and you like it. You’ve been fooled by your friends and you had no clue. 

Your night ended when you asked Sungchan to help you get to your room because you're too sleepy to stay up drinking (water). The boy laughed at you but gladly helped you walk to your room upstairs while Shotaro is following after the two of you, waiting for a chance to help. 

The two were glad that you didn't make it harder for them to take you upstairs. They didn't know which room was assigned to you so you insisted that you can take care of yourself and thanked them immediately. 

They went back downstairs while you chose the closest room to you and tried to walk a straight line into it. You opened the door to see two twin sized beds and one floor mattress, you took the floor. 

You laid yourself down way too quickly. Apparently you already lost your sense of balance and control, you almost hit your head on the floor. 

You didn't know that Yuta and Haechan were watching your struggles and laughing to themselves just by the door. You caught them when Haechan snorted a little too loud, you couldn't help but laugh as well. 

“How long have you been there?” You elongated your words but you delivered it nevertheless. 

Haechan answered you by mimicking your way of talking. 

“Can you help me move to the bed?” You begged them which made them laugh even more. 

You have no idea what's funny but you let them make fun of you as long as they're going to help you get settled on the bed. You have no strength and will to argue with them, especially with Haechan, when the room is already spinning. 

They pulled you on each arm and carefully sat you on the bed. Yuta pulled your legs up to the bed and Haechan guided your head to your pillow. They tucked you with your comforter as your eyes automatically closed to sleep. 

You could still hear them but your body felt like it had already shut down and you weren't able to thank them anymore. You heard them walk out and closed the light. Finally, a peace to yourself.

This peace was broken not long after when four men came barging into the room with loud voices enough to wake up a herd of cows. You recognized them as Hendery, Xiaojun, Yangyang and Renjun. 

“What's she doing here?” Renjun asked, laughing. 

Yangyang walked to you and poked your arm, Xiaojun and Renjun immediately told Yangyang to stop and let you rest but he obviously didn't listen because you woke up from your sleep. 

“Hmm” you sounded. 

“Scoot over, you're on my bed.” Yangyang said playfully knowing that your drunken state would do anything you’re told to and you did. 

You scooted to the side and even left him half of your blanket. You hated it because you're dizzy again, but you didn't bother talking. Yangyang laughed and said he was just joking and he’s sorry for waking you up. 

They continued their conversation in lower volumes, which is still loud, but you appreciate that they tried toning it down. You easily fell asleep again, but felt something wet and cold on your face a little later. 

“What are you doing?!” You heard Xiaojun exclaim in a hushed tone. 

The person beside you who’s responsible for it giggled. “Never forget the skincare routine.” Hendery said, making everyone laugh while he evened out a strawberry mask on your face.

A knock was heard on the door and someone opened it. 

“Is she here?” Taeil popped his head and scanned the room with his eyes. 

They didn't have to answer as he saw you laying down on a bed with a face mask on you. The sight of you is enough to make him smile. 

“Taeyong and I were looking for her everywhere. She should be sleeping with manager noona.” He explained. 

“She's already sleeping here when we came in. She probably went to the closest room to her.” Renjun snorted.

“I'll have her picked up, I can't carry her, she's heavy.” Taeil joked and left for a second before coming back with Johnny behind him. 

You felt someone gently scooped you from the bed and you immediately opened your eyes panicking with what's happening. 

“Shh it’s just me.” Johnny whispered which made you calm down and melt on his chest. You were so dizzy you wondered why you have to move so often but you let them.

Chenle saw you as you're on your way to your assigned room and made a joke about you being Snow White except that you took whiskey shots instead of taking a bite from a poisoned apple. You heard it and wanted to flip him off but unfortunately you cannot move your body to your own accord anymore. Tomorrow you'll avenge yourself and Chenle shall fear you.

Johnny gently placed you on the bed then bid you goodnight and only then you found your peace and slept soundly through the night. 

(Though you still heard a series of screams from Chenle, yelling from Lucas and laughing from Mark. Sometimes you could hear people running in the hallway and some even shamelessly cussed numerous times but what's new? It's NCT afterall.)

[kakashiswilloffire]

hey friend! i saw you are taking requests and would love to submit one if you're up for it!

would love something fluffy and sweet for kakashi. maybe some lazy day off shenanigans with his s/o and his ninken? bonus points if snuggling in a dog pile is involved at some point. reader can be gender neutral.

thanks and congrats on 100!

thank you so much!! i'm not really a dog person so i struggled a bit but i hope you enjoy!!

ao3

words: 2.4k

warnings: none!

It was the first day off you had both had in nearly a month. Team 7 kept Kakashi busy, if not with missions, then with training all day. On top of that, he was still in the on-call rotation all jonin were required to keep their names in, though his shifts were less frequent due to his status as a sensei. You had recently been promoted, and with that, your responsibilities were upped and you had been asked to step in for one of your colleagues who had recently run into some unexpected health issues. The time you had been able to share at home together had been limited to early mornings and late evenings, and frequently, there had been nights where the apartment you shared had remained empty entirely. Your fiancé had been counting down the days until your schedules finally overlapped, and you had exactly twenty-six hours in which you both had no obligation to the outside world.

You were awoken by the fire alarm screeching and a handful of swear words, followed by a crunching of plastic and sudden silence. Gaze flickering to the side, you noted Kakashi’s two-thirds of the bed empty and grinned, holding back a chuckle.

“Everything alright, babe?” you called out.

The reply came with an air of resignment. “Did I wake you up?”

You brought your arms over your head, feeling your joints re-align and pop lightly as you stretched.

“Not necessarily, unless you need help cleaning up?”

“No!” He replied quickly, and you heard the broom skitter across the tiles, dragging the remains of the smoke detector with it. “Go ahead and go back to sleep, I’ll come wake you later.”

Not one to deny the opportunity to rest after how late you’d gotten in last night, you snuggled back into your pillow with a small smile. It only took a moment before you were drifting off again, although not as deeply as you had been. You were dimly aware of the sound of teapot being filled, the burnt toast smell wafting through the open door, and your fiance’s graceful footsteps as he danced through the kitchen.

Wait.

Danced?

You raised your head up slightly, freeing both ears to focus on the sound of the Copy Ninja’s footsteps. His weight wasn’t distributing evenly on each step and the pattern of his footfalls was irregular. Bringing yourself to a sitting position, you suddenly realized that he was humming absentmindedly in the small kitchen.

Kakashi was not known for his stoicism, but the level of professionalism he established outside of the copy of Icha Icha attached to his palm was carefully maintained even in his downtime. When you went out together for dinner or drinks with friends, he told few jokes and mostly at Genma or Asuma’s expense. Gai’s repeated challenges to karaoke contests, both in locations with and without a karaoke machine, had always been flatly denied in favor of watching you and Kurenai choose the heartbreaker duet of the week to belt out. When you found yourself at the rare club, it only took light coaxing to bring him onto the dance floor with you, but anything more than swaying to the beat was out of the question. As long as he was having fun, you didn’t mind him not joining in the way the others teased him to do, but you had wished that he would be able to let go of his responsibilities long enough to really enjoy himself one day.

You slinked out of bed, keeping your movements as fluid as possible as you wrapped the comforter over your shoulders. As silently as you could move, you travelled into the hallway and through the living room, the smell of something acrid and burnt slowly getting stronger. You flattened yourself parallel to the wall, though not touching it to prevent the noise of the comforter dragging along, once you approached the doorway to the kitchen. He was certainly humming, and you couldn’t repress a grin, realizing he must be nearly skipping from the counter to the pantry from the way he moved. As slowly as you could, despite your excitement, you leaned around the corner to check on the man in the kitchen.

Kakashi was wearing boxers and a binder, his most comfortable outfit when secure inside your shared home. To your delight, he had chosen one of the binders without a mask attached, and you had a clear view of the slightly silly grin plastering his face as he shifted intermittently from humming to light, mumbled singing, punctuated by murmuring the ingredients he was using as he reached for them. He was stationed at the stove, stirring a medium pot and tasting from it in between verses of his song, reaching for more salt or minced garlic to adjust. He closed his eyes, bobbing his head side to side at a line he took a particular interest in, the morning sunlight catching glints of silver in his messy hair.

Taking advantage of his eyes being shut, you whipped back around the doorway into the living room, quickly tiptoeing away. You were so in love, and so happy to see him carefree, your mouth fell open in a silent scream and your hands, corners of the comforter still held in each, flew to your face.

You had to tell someone. No one would ever believe that Kakashi Hatake, master of a thousand jutsu, could be so sweet and cute behind the former ANBU exterior. Quickly, you crouched to the floor, abandoned the comforter, and made the required handsigns, pausing for a moment to remember if it was hitsuji or uma that came after saru, then gently pressed your palm against a squishy couch cushion. With a puff of smoke that evaporated almost as quickly as it was created, Pakkun sat before you.

You brought your finger up to your lips in a shushing gesture immediately. The tiny dog squinted, but nodded his agreement after a beat. This was your third or fourth time summoning him, and the first time you had done with without Kakashi. Animal summons were not your strong suit, and you had never particularly been a dog person, a fact that Pakkun had keyed in to almost instantaneously upon meeting you when you had no more than polite “my boyfriend’s pet” level interest in his paw pads. They were as soft and supple as he claimed, but you didn’t quite understand the appeal of man’s best friend.

You made the simple gestures required to convey that there was something to see and led Pakkun quietly toward the entryway to the kitchen where you could hear the rice cooker being sealed and started. Kakashi had switched to a different song and was now vocalizing the instrumentals softly, occasionally pausing to mime playing the instruments he was mimicking. Your hand found its way over your mouth, your heart melting with the gentle domesticity. Then you jerked away, feeling a soft scratch at your feet.

The pocket-sized grizzled dog glared at you until you bent down, when he pointed upwards toward a mess of hair. You felt a pang of guilt as you realized from this angle, all you could see was the shinobi’s calloused hand pushing silver strands out of his face, the black engagement band glinting dully on his finger. For the wedding in four months, you had managed to arrange custom bands for you both with the Hatake crest engraved into the matte surface. Kakashi didn’t know yet, and you knew that with how mission work was, he wouldn’t get to wear it often, but he would have a piece of his clan’s legacy with him whenever he did wear it.

The feeling of disappointment radiated off of the dog with the headband as you absorbed the fact you hadn’t considered him not being able to see over the counter. After a moment, you held out both your hands cupped together, fingertips resting on the floorboards. Pakkun regarded this, looking from your hands to your face, which you tried to humble appropriately. He sniffed at your exposed palms, then delicately stepped into your arms.

Bringing him up to your chest as you stood back up, you felt him stiffen. Had you moved him too quickly? Were you holding him too tightly? You ran two fingers down the back of his head instinctively and were surprised to find him relax. Kakashi tasted the cloudy liquid from the pot again and nodded firmly, turning toward the doorway. You whipped around, placing your back against the living room wall and clutching Pakkun tightly to your chest. You both held your breath, waiting to see if you’d been caught.

He sang to himself, “almost ready!” and you released your breath. Quickly, you snagged the blanket off the floor and made your way back to the bedroom.

“What’s the occasion?” Pakkun demanded as soon as you had the door shut behind you, jumping onto the bed.

“There is none! It’s just our first day off in a while, and he thinks I’m still asleep!”

Pakkun considered that quietly. “His pa, Sakumo, used to do the same thing. If he thought no one was around, he’d put on a whole concert for himself. Kakashi used to join him, up until his death. Then I didn’t catch him humming again till about a year after Minato’s death. Life had been rough for the poor pup up till about then. But he’s been in there all morning singing to himself?”

You nodded, pulling the gray comforter tighter around your shoulders. You knew your fiancé had been through more than most people should ever have to go through, but to think he might be making a breakthrough with his depression and trauma—to start singing again?

Pakkun made an odd noise that reminded you of a sneeze, then pawed at his eye and seemed to clear his throat. “I gotta tell the others. They’re gonna lose it.”

“Yeah, you should definitely head back and let them know the good news. I’m supposed to be asleep after all, he’ll probably come wake me up in a minute or two.”

The sly dog hesitated, then a wicked glimmer flashed across his eyes. “Or…”

Before you could react, you were engulfed a thin cloud of smoke that smelled vaguely of grass, and your bed began to creak. You jumped up, gasping at the number of variously sized dogs that had appeared in the room.

Pakkun addressed the crew before anyone could ask any questions. “Stay quiet. We’ve got a stealth mission ahead of us. Everyone, this is Kakashi’s partner, the one he’s marrying soon.” He then turned to you and pointed out the pack members in a line. “Bull, Urushi, Shiba, Bisuke, Akino, Uhei, and Guruko.” They were all undeniably adorable, and you’d have to ask your fiancé when he had the time to commission them all matching vests and headbands, but you were still shocked to see so many dogs. Did he really have eight summons? When most shinobi had one, if any?

“Name of the game is observe without being detected. Target: Kakashi. Location: kitchen. Standard formation. Questions?”

With no questions being posed, Pakkun lept up onto Bull’s head and led the way. You marveled in how quietly such a massive dog could move and trailed the pack as they made their way through your apartment.

You heard the timer on the rice cooker ding, then the seal breaking and relished the scent of the steam drifting through the air. There must be a stick of lemongrass in the rice this morning. You could see that Kakashi was beginning to set the table, gathering everything for a cozy breakfast for two.

He was also singing, audibly, with some degree of confidence.

One by one, the dogs all stopped and froze in awe. Akino and Uhei stepped around to the other side of you, and Shiba—or maybe it was Urushi?—popped their head between your knees to try to see. You were surrounded on all sides by the ninken, and you started to feel comforted by their warmth. Together, you all listened to your man serenade chopsticks and bowls as he spun to the small table, breaking into a mock tap routine as the china hit the wooden surface. You felt your head tilt to the right as you let the waves of love rush over you as you watched him carefully adjust the oily, burnt pan in the sink so he could wash his hands.

“Alright, love—breakfast is ready!”

For just a moment, you forgot that you were supposed to be in bed. You didn’t move as Kakashi rounded the corner, freezing when he saw nine sets of puppy-dog eyes gazing wistfully back at him from the middle of the living room, all heads tilted to the right and dreamy smiles plastered on each face.

“Ah! Uh, how long have you, uh…?”

Together, you moved as a pack toward your loved one, tackling him in a ten person hug. When you wormed your way past Uhei, you cupped Kakashi’s face and brought him in for a deep kiss, feeling butterflies in your stomach. He blushed slightly, tracing his thumb along your jawline.

“I love you, and I’m so glad that you feel safe and happy and loved with me,” you whispered fiercely, trying to beam the intensity of your emotion at him without being too aggressive.

He smiled, Sharingan deliberately taking the whole scene in as he lay on the floor with you, pulling you into his arms. Pakkun trotted over to sit on his chest while he brought you in for a firm, tight hug.

“Me too. And I’m glad you got to meet the rest of the clan.” He let the Sharingan fall shut, relaxing against you.

“Would’ve made more miso soup if I’d known everyone was coming over. Have you seen the dog bowls around anywhere?”

We’ve Got Tonight

Chapter 7

“Andy, are you okay? We took care of that crackpot apocalypse cult, but Cas isn’t making any sense. Why is he telling me to check in with you? How did you know about all this?”

“You got all of them? None of them got away? Does Cas still have the second address, Dean?”

“What does...No, Cas, I don’t...Jesus, alright! Yes, Andy, Cas has the address. Why? What the hell is going on? Are you gonna give me some answers, or-”

“Just come to the address, Dean. I’ll be here.” ...

The embers of the fire smoke sullenly in the steady drizzle. The flames died down a while ago, leaving only chunks of wood and ash, but still Dean stands sentinel over the remnants of the pyre.

His hands are shoved deep in his pockets, his face a stoic mask. There are streaks of blood down the front of his shirt from the fight earlier in the night, smears of dirt and soot across his skin that are beginning to run down in rivulets of dirty rain water. His eyes are red and a little wetter than the weather warrants. His clothing is soaked and chilled, but he stopped feeling the temperature a while ago.

He hasn’t moved in hours.

“Cas, I know he had that one night with her, but, I mean...can you at least explain how she knew about that ritual? Why would she do this to herself? And why did she need a hunter’s funeral? Was she a hunter? I didn’t recognize her.”

Cas stares miserably out of the Impala’s windshield, watching his lost friend without a clue of how to comfort him. Sam sits in the backseat, bewildered and completely unaware of how close he came to losing everything. Cas finds himself irrationally annoyed with Sam’s ignorance, despite being one of the main sources.

“I can’t tell you, Sam. She didn’t want me to, and I agree with her. But you should be very grateful, all the same. She saved you and your brother. She saved all of us.”

“Cas, I don’t-”

“That’s right,” the angel agrees suddenly, his brusque tone shutting down Sam’s questions. “You don’t. I’m going to check on Dean.”

…

“I just want to register for the record that you are a damned coward. Don’t give me any of that benevolent wisdom bullshit. You are a sick, sadistic, neglectful bastard, and I’m finding it hard to think of a single good thing you’ve ever done.”

The irate woman glares down at Chuck in his worn vinyl booth until he begins to squirm under her gaze. His eyes flick away from hers, then back suddenly, as if he’s afraid to let her out of his sight for too long.

“You still got a little time with him. Better to have loved and lost than to-”

She leans down in front of him, resting her hands on the table and bending until her nose is inches from his. He can smell the lavender and clover that she told Dean about, can smell the blood and the scotch, but most of all he can smell the smoke.

She continues to stare him down silently, her wrath evident in every line and angle of her body. His irritation rises, and his lips thin with displeasure until they almost disappear into his beard. He clicks his tongue at her, cocking his head to the side.

“I could have just let things run the course that they naturally did the first time, including your ‘highly successful’ deal with Crowley. Aren’t you humans always moaning about getting second chances? I gave you the chance to fix everything that went wrong the first time!”

“Considering I had to die both times for the world and the Winchesters to still be safe, I’d say there were still some holes in the overall plot line.”

He glares at her, resentful and sullen, unwilling to budge. “You made your choices, both times around. Free will, and all that? I could have just let you all die, let you live with the consequences of your choices just like every other human in history. I didn’t have to give you that rewind, you know.”

“Then why did you?!?”

Her furious outburst echoes around the empty tavern. She takes a deep breath, forgetting for a moment that she no longer needs to breathe at all, but the action serves its purpose, and her anger is temporarily eased. He takes advantage of the quiet to push his point, trying one more time to get her to see his side.

“I wanted to give you, them, another chance. I couldn't see many ways out of this...tangle. So I put everything out there that I could think of to help you, and I hoped you’d make the right choice. And you...did?”

But this woman, this impossible, irritable, flawed human, is clearly unimpressed that this is the first time in existence that he’s bothered to explain his reasoning to anyone.

“For the record, regardless of where it sends me, you are a complete dick.”

He holds her gaze soberly, his expression going neutral with only a tinge of regret, before finally raising his hand in a sort of farewell gesture. Then she’s gone, and he is alone once more.

“For the record,” he mutters as he lowers his hands to the typewriter in front of him, “you’re not wrong.”

I know it's late; I know you're weary. I know your plans don't include me. Still here we are: both of us lonely, Longing for shelter from all that we see.

Why should we worry? No one will care girl. Look at the stars, so far away.

We've got tonight, who needs tomorrow? We've got tonight, babe, Why don't you stay?

Deep in my soul, I've been so lonely: All of my hopes, fading away. I've longed for love, like everyone else does. I know I'll keep searching, even after today.

So there it is girl; I've said it all now, And here we are babe. What do you say?

We've got tonight, who needs tomorrow? We've got tonight, babe, Why don't you stay?

I know it's late; I know you're weary. I know your plans don't include me. Still here we are, both of us lonely. Both of us lonely.

We've got tonight, who needs tomorrow? Let's make it last, let's find a way. Turn out the light, come take my hand now

We've got tonight, babe, Why don't you stay? Why don't you stay? .....

ASANO GAKUSHUU X READER HEADCANNONS

Before you ask......don't ask. Yes I like assassination classroom too.

This is a HC about Y/n and Gakushuu attending the same high school.

Ohh boy do I tell you this boi fell hard for you.

And by 'fell' I mean literally fell.

It was one of those rare occasions his father being the disciplined father he is made Gakushuu walk home from school just because he didn't eat his roasted asparagus in dinner last night.

He didn't really mind tho. His home wasn't that far and he liked to see what's going on in the outside peasant world sometimes.

As he was passing a convenient store, he heard some commotion in the alley behind it.

He ignored it and started to walk his way, but he saw a glimpse of a grey uniform skirt and snapped his head towards you.

He saw you, clad in Kunigioka's grey uniform and surrounded by three tattooed bulk men.

"Come on little girl, just keep us company for some karaoke. You see my friends and I we all are really bad singers and would love some help."______"What makes you think I'm good at singing?"________" Oh I can tell you are naturally good at it little bird! Your angelic voice is like as sweet as honey to my ears."________"Back off."_________"What?"________"I said back off you pathetic excuse of a human being before I break your willy and shove it down your throats."________"YOU STUPID BITCH!!!"

He raised his hand, but before he could even swing you neck sliced him in the throat and kicked him down there. He clutched himself as you once again kicked him in his ribs and hope that the blow was enough to keep him down for a bit. You grabbed your heavy aluminium water bottle (those things hurt guys😭 not that I've been hit by one but I accidentally hit myself. it's a great, heavy yet non-obvious self defense tool so carry one around👍) and swung it towards one of his friends. A sickening clang could be audibly heard as you hit him in the head and Congratulations!! You eliminated one more player.

You turned around and swung it towards yet another person who skillfully twisted and yanked your aluminium bottle away from you. This person was similar to your build and was standing in a defensive position, so you kicked the only thing available to you, his shin.

You were surprised as you heard a rather boyish yelp as your victim fell to the ground and grabbed his aching leg. Only then you realized......

Shit it's the previous headmaster's son.

"Oh no!! I didn't mean to kick you are you okay?"_________"I'm fine thank you."

You moved your hand towards the part of his leg which was sprained and saw that he flinched. Clearly he was in pain and seeing that he took care of one of the guys who was hitting on you felt bad so you took him to your house to treat his injury no matter how much he refused.

That was it. That's how he fell for you.

He expected himself to fall for someone who was at the same level of genius as him, but apparently he was wrong.

Why you ask he fell for you? Because you were the only one who can kick his ass purple and speak sweet words to him at the same time.

Seeing that you were an average student, not too good not too bad, he didn't really have a problem with sharing his feelings for you with someone.

The first one to notice it was not Ren, but Karma. Or you could say that Karma found his theory to be correct as he eavesdropped on Gakushuu telling Ren about how he felt for you.

Ren, knowing his manipulating skills encouraged Gakushuu to manipulate one of the teachers to transfer you from class C to class A.

And so you did.

Gakushuu, Ren along with Karma and you. This was a particularly chaotic classroom.

You weren't really complaining, as your grades got better the day you stepped in the class. But you can't shake the feeling that ten pairs of eyes were watching your every movement.

(And lol that was so true😂)

Gakushuu only respectfully watched you and your subtle movements. The way you'd chew on your pencil or nails when you were stuck, the way your eyes turned big round and innocent every time you didn't understand a concept, the way you'd pick on your peach fuzz on your face when you were anxious. Every single habit, every little thing he loved about you, he would have it memorized. Heck when he was feeling stressed out about his future company finances (yes he's planning big) he would pick on his own peach fuzz and smile like an idiot as his heart relaxes and flutters at the same time.

Ren however, watched for your responses to guys. Every time the handsome professor walked in, (admit it, we all have one at some point in our life😏) you would sit up straight, your spine rid of any slouchiness from studying. The way you would cross your legs so your skirt rides up just a bit, and the way your gaze turned sly and your smirk naughty, yes this boy is serious about helping his best friend. Heck he would even come up to you and talk to you to get some type of reaction towards him, but figures out you didn't really like him (ouch!😢)

But Karma stared. And by stared I literally mean stared. Bore holes in the back of your head by staring at you too much. He didn't understand that a guy as corrupt as Gakushuu would fall for a disheveled angel like you. It's not that you weren't beautiful, but the combination of scary principal's son and a smol fluffy bean didn't seem very safe. At times you would even find Karma behaving as an older brother to you. And you weren't one to complain but rather happy that someone in here truly cares for you than judge you for your grades.

Add 7 other girls who were suspicious of you and that's all the people who keep staring at you during the time you're in class.

Every morning you hand in your homework, it was always Gakushuu. You would hand in your homework, he would scan it once and turn around to check others'.

But you knew better than that.

After school was over, you would make your way to the hallway but a strong grip held you back.

"We need to work on your Social Studies. You suck at it."______"But shuu!!!"_______"No buts. Get in the library and wait for me there."

He would drag you to the library and make you study your worst subject (which isn't fun at all🤢) but he would make it a LOT easier for you to understand.

Of course Ren gave him some tips to flirting. Hold her pinky, look in her eyes, compliment her and yada yada yada yada yada......

He did try one of them, but he almost had a heart attack from his heart beating so fast that he decided not to listen to his minio- I mean friend anymore and do it his way.

And honestly he loves his way!!

He loved the cute nicknames you made for him while you whined for him to release you. He loved it the way your face lightens up when he explains there was an easier way to solve an equation.

All the nervousness is his system had vanished.

He also got to the point where when you got an obviously easy question wrong, he would pinch your cheeks while grinning wide.

This made study time a lot easier for you.

You weren't aware that he was like that for and with you only. Only you made him feel that way.

But you found out soon when he got TOO comfortable one day and let it slip out.

"Y/n I think I have a crush on you."

As soon as he said it, blood rushed to your cheeks and drained from his.

Both of you were staring at each other for a hot minute before you broke the silence.

"You're kidding aren't you? I'm not even that smart or that much of a genius in anything. I- but-"

"Y/n I know that. But it's just something about you that I love. I- I can't express in words how much I adore you."

You were starstruck.

Asano Gakushuu. THE Asano Gakushuu likes you!!!!

But you still refused to believe yourself AND his words. Wondering if he was turning into a playboy like Ren.

All you could say was "Then show me."

The library was quiet and you two specifically picked up a spot away from other students, the librarian and surveillance cameras so both of you can goof off. Who knew that this was also the perfect place to kiss?

He gently took your hand as he first stared at your eyes and shifted his gaze to your lips. You acted confident as if you knew how to kiss but god knows you kicked the ass of your first boyfriend before he could even hold your hand.

His gaze stayed on your lips as he licked his and visibly gulped. You wanted to throw a snarky remark but seeing the boy was as edged as a cat you wouldn't dare.

Bringing one of his hands up to your cheek he slightly tilted his head as he came near you before stopping right where your lips weren't touching his but you could feel his minty breath. Obviously waiting for you if you were okay with this, you decided to close that painful space between the two of you.

As soon as your lips touched his, he was in charge. This wasn't a particularly deep or fast kiss. You weren't digging your tongues in each other's mouth but rather just moving your lips to each other, as if giving silent yet intimate messages to each other. His lips slightly glided over yours, and you definitely knew that the way he was kissing you, he was an expert hidden within an amateur. The kiss wasn't heated or passionate in any way, but it was sinfully sweet.

It lasted for about a minute, but felt like an eternity.

Pulling away he stared at you again softly before saying "Thank You" and intertwining your fingers with his.

You were too shocked to react to anything. You were an average student. You got into fights. Your mom always yells at you to behave. Your dad keeps telling you to improve your temper. Why the hell does this boy like you?

He noticed you were staring at him the same way you stared at the blackboard during class when the professor was teaching the quantum theory for the first time.

Now that this boy had finally kissed you, he was bold enough to reach out his thumb and running it over your lower lip before popping it in his mouth.

"Pineapple flavoured lip balm, huh? I thought strawberry was the preferred choice when it came to anything for girls. Including......" his eyes lowered to your legs which felt like they were bare naked in the tiny skirt.

"Shuu!!!! Don't stare at me!!" You shoved him away as he laughed and you covered your face with your sweater paws.

"I'm sorry dear. You are just so adorable I couldn't help myself." He said while stroking your hair.

Little did they know a certain playboy on the other side of the library was paying attention to them the whole time and a redhead was poking his head from above one of the bookshelves.

Light on me Ep 7&8

I know I'm late and all but whatever. I had a very nice vacation in the meantime and spend today catching up with "Light on me". Last week's episodes definetly have a different vibe than the ones before. There's a lot of posessiveness and pairings that won't work out at all. I just want to tell every character they are wasting their energy here but well, they have to learn their lesson by themselves. Sounds like I'm talking about children... but watching them sure feels like watching children find their way. Even though the story annoys me a tiny bit, I still have to give the writers all the credits. The characters act like high school students still trying to find their value and struggle with insecurities. For some people, it's better to live alone but they can't because they are too young to move out. Some people have to learn being all loud and noticeable is not always the best way to go. Some need to see they need to define themselves on their own and not let their personality depend on another person's. And some people have to open up more to the world in order to navigate through it. I just think all kind of personalities are mirrored here and it's what makes "Light on me" interesting to watch. Even the conflicts seem to be played out in realistic ways and disappointment is never misplaced, drama is always ready to follow and that happens naturally.

During these two episodes the motive of jealousy materializes itself more and more. Now, things become more serious and we all know, stuff will happen this week - more specifically, tomorrow. Feelings will be spoken of and tears will be shed, probably. All out of jealousy.

So-Hee

If we're talking about jealousy here, we'll start with So-Hee because she is the one who gets more specific and even addressees the topic towards Tae-Gyeong to bring her point across. Last week, it became obvious, she will be a problem or cause a mess. She likes Da-On a lot, even told him, but he doesn't take her compliments and confessions seriously, so she's stuck with him in the friendzone and doesn't know how to show him she's honest.

"I once knew everything about Da-On, but since you showed up, there are things I don't know."

Tae-Gyeong is a threat to her but at the same time opens her eyes that she needs to listen more to Da-On in order to win his heart. She just declared him as hers but she can see there are things Da-On is hiding from her. Still, she takes every chance to be next to him, but also to observe if he will ever give her his heart or not. She feels he doesn't see her anymore and this fear of Da-On slipping away is so grand, she shows up at Tae-Gyeong's surprise party to "congratulate" him. Da-On might believe that but the others all know that's not her original intention. Nontheless, Da-On switches seats with her.

This way, she's a lot more in charge and takes every chance she gets. She even says "Da-On is nice to everybody" to lift the feeling of being someone special off Tae-Gyeong's heart. She's desperate to hold on to this idea in her head. But like Tae-Gyeong says "Da-On is not an object she can own".

Da-On

So-Hee can hope all she wants, Da-On obviously has a crush on Tae-Gyeong but is too afraid to tell her because that would mean breaking her heart and her giving him a look of disappointment.

Da-On is crushing n Tae-Gyeong so hard, it's so obvious, so nobody will believe this lie ever. Even Tae-Gyeong hmself knows. Still, I think this crush originates in admiration beause Tae-Gyeong doesn't hide and at the same time, Tae-Gyeong didn't know Da-On before, so he doesn't have an opinion about him. He doesn't know who Da-On is. He has no expectations thus he can never be disappointed of Da-On. That's what Da-On thinks at least, and he feels some sort of relief. Tae-Gyeong listens to him, pays attention, knows when to be next to him to support him. Also, he can tell Tae-Gyeong about his life without the fear of hearing something like "I'm sorry it's this way". Yes, Tae-Gyeong pities him, everyone would, but what's most important here is to find the right words and Tae-Gyeong does. "You can be honest with me. You're allowed to" is all Da-On needed in this situation. Still, he gives Tae-Gyeong too much hope and in the end Tae-Gyeong feels let down.

Their bond surely is special. They both see the opposite of their own personalities in the other. It's like they both feel like they will learn from each other. Last week, I wasn't sure, if Tae-Gyeong would return Da-On's feelings because it was just Da-On touching him and not the other way around. Tae-Gyeong never made a move with the intention of touching Da-On. Yeah well, this week, that changes.

Shin-Woo

And to talk about the endgame of Tae-Gyeong, we have to talk about Shin-Woo. He is so obviously jealous, it hurts Tae-Gyeong doesn't get it. Shin-Woo is just his weak spot, I guess. Tae-Gyeong is very curious about Shin-Woo, always seeking for a pattern in his actions and feels like he needs to solve this mystery in order to live in peace. The more he explores and discovers, the more he likes Shin-Woo. Shin-Woo liked Tae-Gyeong from the very beginning and is pretty direct for his whereabouts.

"I'm just nice to people I like."

At the same time, I think, he doesn't just pull away because he's shy but also because he has fun watching Tae-Gyeong figure him out.

His face right here shows love, amusement and frustration at the same time. He goes the safe way and gives Tae-Gyeong a challenge. But since Da-On acts up more and more, Shin-Woo sees his position as a special friend on a leave and starts to act less discrete. When Tae-Gyeong is sad at the party because Da-On left and didn't come back, Shin-Woo ties his shoelaces to cast the attention on himself. To make Tae-Gyeong see him. To show Tae-Gyeong he is still there. That's why the moment after when Tae-Gyeong wants to leave and return Da-On's bag, Shin-Woo's gaze is so heartbreaking.

He feels Tae-Gyeong slipping away and he made a last effort to convince Tae-Gyeong otherwise, to not follow Da-On that night and Tae-Gyeong knows that. He hears how desperate Shin-Woo sounds, how his face turns all sad and that it's not necessarily only about karaoke.

"I'm sorry. Next time."

Later, when they are all on this trip, Shin-Woo again, tries to force Tae-Gyeong's attention on him. He helps Tae-Gyeong carry the cartons, he goes to the souvenir shop with him, he eats next to him, he stops Tae-Gyeong's bleeding without even asking what happened. These are all signs of his jealousy. He makes sure Da-On sees him spending time with Tae-Gyeong.

In the end, we get this scenery:

This is exactly picturing Shin-Woo and Da-On fighting about Tae-Gyeong and one of them has to let go in the end. One could see this scene as some sort of forshadowing. Tae-Gyeong arrives with an injury, Shin-Woo is the first to act and help. Then Da-On shows up, casting attention on him and claiming he will do it. But then Shin-Woo steps in again and talks him down, so in the end it's Shin-Woo taking care of Tae-Gyeong. I see a metaphor here guys.

Conclusion

To summarize, So-Hee likes Da-On but Da-On likes Tae-Gyeong. Shin-Woo likes Tae-Gyeong as well and they are all jealous of one another basically. The last person, Namgung, will be part of the mess next week, I guess. He and So-Hee will probably kiss or something because she is sad and he likes her no matter what he says.

For me, it's obvious Tae-Gyeong and Shin-Woo will be endgame as well as Namgung and So-Hee. I think Da-On has to be alone for a while. There's still very much pain behind the sentences "Nothing at home belongs to me", "My mother has a lot of things that are more important than me" and "I thought I was used to her indifference towards me but I guess I'm not". He has to heal on his own and accept himself. Not everybody with big insecurities about their personality is a quiet and shy person, it can be everyone and not every overthinker is silent, you can be anxious and just cover it with happiness and laughter, so Da-On is not obvious, but he needs to love himself before he can really enjoy he bittersweet feeling called love without having doubts everytime.

I'm excited for this week. Let's see what will happen. Jealousy will kick in with everyone of them.
