Re-listening to Malevolent and holy shit the difference in season 1-2 Johns tone to 3-4 is like a chasm. You really dont pick up on it until you go back, but old John was SUPER manipulative, especially with his weird ass "Listen to me, i am your friend Arthur :))) Isn't my voice just so smooth and understanding?? I am an elegant creature and you are acting like a common caveman Arthur, poor you" while John now is just "Arthur. Arthur. Stop ignoring me 😡😡 You can't have friends because it makes me sad and you are SO. MEAN. TO. ME. You are mean to me and i will not forgive you... Im sorry i lied Arthur please pay attention to me 🥺🥺🥺🥺". It really stands to say that Harlan is amazing because i full on believed that John had Arthur's best interests at heart in the begining and that just proves that i would NOT survive in Arthurs shoes for a day.
Thinking about a rdr2 AU where John Charles Arthur Sean and Javier are in an alt rock band (rockstar pun is Right There) and John's the lead singer, Charles is bassist, Javier is on guitar and backing vocals, Sean is drums and backing vocals and I'm trying to think of something that fits Arthur but he is in the band for sure because it's just right ok
Anyway it takes place in 1999 instead of 1899 in the post-grunge era, they're an under-the-radar band trying to make it, but they're also more than a band, they're like family, and they get into crazy shenanigans and have all kinds of fun
All the fans think John's scars are just a cosmetic part of his stage persona but they are wrong :)
The band name would be so cool like "misfits and thieves" or something along those lines
I imagine one of them gets abducted by aliens at some point and comes back a little different because I think it would be funny (most likely either Sean or John due to their absent periods in the game and also I just think they would have been voted in high school 'most likely to get abducted by aliens')
I'm sure someone's thought of this already but it's just such a cool idea
OMG THE MATZ RECORDING BEHIND?? Im a puddle of love for kim hongjoong 🤧
(also he would be so good at guiding an inexperienced partner in bed 🙈)
kim hongjoong, the man that he is 🥹💞 the way he’s so supportive and encouraging. goodness i love him. he was so patient and uplifting for seonghwa it was so sweet😭
now, why you gotta put that thought in my head 🙃 you’re right, he absolutely would be so good at that. so patient, so kind and gentle. he’d constantly make sure you’re comfy and that you’re enjoying it, would 100% focus solely on your pleasure rather than his own. would want to make sure your first time is an experience you’ll never forget. all the sweet whispers in your ear, all the praises and kisses…the encouraging smiles and the way he’d gaze down at you lovingly.
“just like that, angel” “so good for me” “so perfect” “you’re breathtaking, angel” “you like this, hm?” “oh? did that feel good, angel? want me to keep going?” “shhh, angel, i’m here” “breathe for me” “let me see your pretty face angel, don’t cover it up” “tell me what you want” “keep going, angel, just a little more” “you’re so wet, so tight for me” “you did so good, angel”
