hyung line seeing your natural hair for the first time .ᐟ

pairing : blackfem!reader x hyung line (separate)

genre : fluff n pure cuteness. that's it.

warnings : kissing, pet names, violent threats, cursing.

has links to hairstyles found on pinterest!

backstory : so basically, you guys started dating when your hair was straightened. so they haven't seen your natural hair yet. hence, why they're surprised.

a/n: im so super excited to do this one, due to the fact that poc (that are also stays) people don't get much recognition here on tumblr. the maknae line might be delayed due to my vacation, sorry!!!

feel free to like, comment, and reblog.

word count: 652

bangchan - 방찬

you were putting your hair into this hairstyle, when chan entered the bathroom

this mans jaw would DROP

but he would fall in love all over again (kisses everywhere for the next straight week)

"baby, why haven't seen your beautiful hair like this before?!"

would spend the entire day researching about your hair

listens to you talk about your hair

almost fainted at the amount of hair products you owned

"Jesus Christ, that's like 50 products!"

probably could almost faint at the beauty supply store

when he saw the different color eco gels on the shelf, he just had to ask

"baby what's the difference between the brown and green gel?"

most DEFINITELY would rest his head in it (with consent obviously)

poor channie would bring home the wrong hair products for you

"it's the wrong one? i'm going back"

you would have to convince him it's fine and that he doesn't have to go

moral of this, he just fell in love all over again

leeknow - 리노

you had been doing your hair in the bathroom while leeknow went to go get lunch and ran some errands

he opened the door to find Dori, Soonie, and Doongie at your feet

"i was looking for y- wow."

absolutely flabbergasted at how big your puffs were

you originally thought he didn't like it, due to the fact that your hair was straight when you two got together

"jagiya, it looks so good on you."

accidentally got his hands stuck in it (bless this kitty.)

found out about amount of hair products from Doongie while you were at work

"how does y/n use this many..."

but he didn't judge because he didn't know much about it (also why would he judge his beautiful black girlfriend..??????)

the next morning you were doing your hair again

he had been hugging you from behind, head on your shoulder

the cats were on counter following your every move along with leeknow

was just completely entranced.

had to untangle a cat's paw or 2 out your hair (dori and soonie were curious)

is protective over you, especially to any jokes or certain looks about your hair

"don't mind them jagiya. they're like this because they don't have as much hair as you."

always smiled when you kept your hair out like this and not straightened

changbin - 창빈

you just left your hair in a afro

did a QUADRUPLE take when he walked past the bathroom

"sweetheart your hair was this big and fluffy THE WHOLE TIME?!"

would fall in love all over again (this mf had actual heart eyes)

is completely distracted in the studio until jisung asked him

"changbin what's wrong? this is like the fifth time you've been spaced out."

proceeds to absolutely gush and become a fanboy over your hair

thinks about it all the damn time

the proudest smile on his face when you get compliments

buys literally anything at the beauty supply for you

has been at the beauty supply so many times that the employees just know

practically lives in your afro (loves the feeling and the scent of all the hair products

will most DEFINITELY throw a dumbell at anyone who looks at you and your hair wrong while you two are on your gym date

got matching bonnets for you two

is completely inlove again

hyunjin - 현진

you tied your hair up, making sure it was out of the way

when hyunjin entered the bathroom it was like a play

he gasped dramatically

"i've got an heaven sent girlfriend. i'm the luckiest man alive."

"is it bad...?"

"I LOVE THEM"

taking his eyes off of you was not an option

came back from an errand run with two bags filled with hair products

did his research and found temporary hair dye for your hair type

shaped your puffs into stars with the most delicate touch ever

painted you (for his eyes and yours only)

refills hair products without you having to ask

absolutely adores hair supply runs with you (even if he gets looks, he just wants you to be happy

wrote poems about you and hair

showed his members SO many photos of it

bought so many matching bonnets for the two of you

4. Heck Yeah!!

5. My children! You hurt them! How dare!

6. You have blessed us! May both sides of your pillow stay cool! (Or any other blessing of your choice)

7. Thank you!

8. It even [surprised, shocked, broke my heart] on the reread! Excellent work!! (Only if this a reread)

9. I wish I could leave a longer comment, this fic deserves one! Bravo!

10. 10/10 would let break my heart again

[allthingswhumpyandangsty]

how to ask / motivate your favorite fanfic writers to post new works / update a new chapter WITHOUT rushing them or sounding entitled and rude;

don’t comment “when” or “will there be a next chapter” or “will you continue this?” quite frankly, these type of comments can sound like you’re demanding from your favorite writer, even if it may not be your intention.

if you’d love a sequel or are wondering when or if the fic will be updated, try something like “I love this so much!” *bonus if you explain why you love the fic or what you love about it* and then add something along the line of “if there’s a part 2 of this, I would be so excited / would absolutely love to read it!”

the trick is to avoid a blunt question like “will there be a part 2?” or “it’s been so long. when will you update?” etc.

honestly, DON’T ever comment something like “it’s been ___ months, ___ years” or “I don’t think the author will continue this lol” that’s one of the most effective ways to make sure your favorite author doesn’t come back to your favorite fic, and it’s just so… dishearteningly rude.

it doesn’t matter if it’s been months or years since the author’s last update, demanding and rushing them will most likely NOT give you the result you want.

reminder that fanfic authors are humans with lives and jobs outside of writing fanfiction, especially when fanfic is something they do in their free time out of love and passion, and you — the reader — get to read their works for free.

rushing and demanding will only make it sound like ‘a task that needs to get done’ for your favorite author, and it sucks out the joy of writing out of love and passion. it can be so discouraging for the authors.

fanfic authors don’t owe you anything.

even if they completely abandon the fic, it still doesn’t give you the right to be rude to them or to ask why they stopped writing or to coerce them into giving you what you want.

I can never say this enough; fanfic authors write in their free time, FOR FREE, out of love and passion. and you get to read their works FOR FREE because they’re kind enough to share their love for their comfort characters with you.

they don’t owe you anything.

it’s okay if you’re wondering when or if they’ll post something new, but it’s not okay to rush or demand from them.

comments are mostly what motivate authors into writing faster, so if you want your favorite authors to post more, comment about what you love about their works, express your gratitude to them for giving you these amazing fics for free, but don’t be an entitled reader by rushing or directly asking when they’ll update.

let’s keep fandom space safe and comforting for both writers and readers.

Hyunjin x reader / Idol x Backup dancer / dom!Hyunjin / smut

**involves!!** tension, orgasm, dance practice, grinding, mirror sex, filling up, dirty talk, cursing, smut with feels, raw sex, strong language, cursing, rough, SMUT

enjoy xx (open for request)

★.•☆•.★★.•☆•.★¸.•☆•.¸★ skzstarl0ver ★⡀.•☆•.★⡀.•☆•.★¸.•☆•.¸★

Hyunjin’s breath is shallow across from you, strands of hair sticking to his flushed cheeks. The choreo is intense—hips grinding, bodies pressed too close for “just practice.” Every lift, every grip, every stare lingers too long.

He’s watching you again. Not just your moves. You.

“Again,” he says, voice low, lips parted like he’s just come out of a dream. He doesn’t look away. “Let’s run the second chorus.”

You nod. Pretend like your heart isn’t trying to break free from your ribs.

The music starts. Heat coils in your gut as you lock eyes in the mirror. He’s behind you, chest against your back, hands splayed over your hips as the choreo dictates. But his fingers twitch—grip tightening. Improvised. His breath brushes your ear.

“You’re getting better,” he murmurs.

“Practice makes perfect,” you manage, though your voice wavers. He chuckles, low and dark, and you swear it vibrates through your spine.

AFTER HOURS

The others are gone. The lights are dimmed. The only sound now is your shared breath and the soft scuff of sneakers on the floor. You stretch, pretending not to notice Hyunjin still watching you from across the studio, water bottle in hand, shirt damp with sweat.

“You’re staying late again?” he asks, approaching.

You shrug. “Wanted to clean up the footwork on that last eight-count.”

He steps closer. “I can help.”

Too close now. His gaze flicks to your lips, then to your collarbone where your tank has slipped. You don’t move.

“Or,” he says slowly, voice dipped in something dangerous, “we could run the whole thing… no counts. Just… feel it.”

You nod, heart in your throat.

The music swells. This time, you let yourself fall into it. There’s no routine now—only instinct. Your bodies move in sync, heat to heat. His hand slides down your side as your hips roll into his. His mouth is at your neck. The mirror reflects every breathless moment—every flicker of hunger in his eyes.

At the final beat, he doesn’t let go.

You turn to face him. Neither of you speak.

He leans in. “Tell me to stop.”

You don’t.

When his lips finally crash into yours, it’s all teeth and tongue and need. He backs you against the mirror, hands on your ass, lifting you like you weigh nothing. Your legs wrap around him on instinct.

“Been wanting this since the first practice,” he growls.

Your nails rake down his back as his hips grind into yours. His hardness is undeniable, pressing right where you need him.

“Take it off,” you whisper, tugging at his shirt. He obeys, and your top follows. Skin against skin, sweat-slick and desperate.

He turns you around, hands gripping your waist as he bends you forward just enough to see everything in the mirror. The glint in his eyes—feral. He kisses down your spine, slow, reverent.

"Look how perfect you are," Hyunjin breathes, voice dark and reverent as his eyes drink you in through the mirror.

Your hands pressed against the cool glass, a strong contrast to the fever in your skin. His hands are firm on your hips, thumbs stroking soft circles like he's calming a storm he started. His cock throbs against your folds, teasing—but not giving in just yet.

“Say it,” he whispers, leaning in so his lips brush your ear. “Say you want this.”

You whimper, voice catching. “I want it, Hyunjin. I want you.”

That’s all it takes.

He slides in, slow, deliberate—inch by inch. The stretch is maddening. He’s big, and you’re already soaked, but he moves like he wants to feel every second of it. Your eyes flutter shut, a moan slipping from your lips as he bottoms out.

“No,” he growls, hand tangling in your hair, tugging your head up to face the mirror. “Eyes open. Watch me ruin you.”

You do.

You watch as his hips pull back, the head of his cock just barely inside you, before slamming forward again, sharp enough to make your knees buckle. He catches you, one arm wrapping around your waist, the other sliding up your chest to palm your breast through your bra, fingers teasing your nipple until it's pebbling under the lace.

"You love this, don’t you?" he pants, fucking into you with deep, rhythmic thrusts that make your ass bounce against his hips. “Being bent over like this—put on display for me. So needy.”

You’re moaning now—filthy, desperate. “Yes, fuck, Hyunjin—don’t stop.”

He slaps your ass, the crack echoing in the studio. You gasp, then moan louder. The sting mixes with the heat pooling in your belly.

"That's it. Be loud for me, baby."

He shifts the angle, fucking up into that spot that makes your toes curl, and suddenly your entire body tenses. He feels it—smirks against your shoulder as he kisses a mark into your skin.

“You gonna come already?” he taunts. “You that cockdrunk for me?”

You nod frantically, tears brimming as your legs tremble. “I—I can’t hold it—”

“You don’t have to,” he whispers, hand slipping between your legs again, fingers flicking your clit in tight, ruthless circles. “Come all over my cock, baby. Let them all hear what I do to you.”

You fall apart.

Your body jerks, waves of pleasure ripping through you as your vision goes white and your knees give out. He holds you there, fucked-out and gasping, while he fucks you through your orgasm, never once slowing down.

Then he’s pulling out suddenly, flipping you to face him, hoisting you up by your thighs with that dancer strength. You wrap around him like it’s second nature, nails clawing at his back as he slams back inside you, fucking you against the mirror now, eye to eye.

“Fuck, I’m gonna fill you up,” he groans, sweat dripping from his temple as his thrusts grow erratic. “You want that, baby? Want me to come in you?”

You moan like it’s the only word you know. “Yes—please, fill me up, I want it—”

With a deep, broken moan, he buries himself inside you one last time, hips jerking as he spills into you, hot and thick. You feel every pulse of it, every twitch as he holds you tight, panting into your neck like he’s never come that hard in his life.

You’re both trembling, stuck between overstimulated and insatiable, but he doesn’t let go.

Instead, he kisses you—soft, almost tender.

“Fuck,” he whispers. “Practice really does make perfect.”

You giggle breathlessly, still impaled on his cock. “So what now? More practice?”

He smirks, that devilish glint back in his eye.

“Oh, baby. We’re just getting started.”

(Comment reposted from Falling Stars)

Soundwave calling the Autobots' humans their pets made me realize something about the way the Autobots and Decepticons think of their respective humans.

Autobots: "The humans are our friends and partners."

Meaning: Trusted allies, if not equals. Resourceful and admirable as a species, fun on a person-to-person level, but ultimately in need of protection in even a light skirmish.

Decepticons: "Danny is Starscream's pet."

Meaning: That's his best friend, as near to being family as two different species can be, and he's beloved by most of the rest of the ship. Also, being Screamer's pet meant him being hard to kill and damn near impossible to chase off, and that IS a compliment. And both sides have the potential to be so offended by the other's opinion on their humans! The cultural differences! Calling Danny Starscream's pet is both an insult and a compliment, and also just kinda true. 

He comes and goes as he pleases like a half-feral cat, he's a positive influence around the ship, and he's not all that involved in the Con's war, except peripherally as a medical assistant. You don't expect your pet to go to do your job for you, after all.

Meanwhile, the Autobots... Well. They have that annoying, overbearing moral superiority thing going on, where they dehumanize (for lack of a better word) the Decepticons, portraying them to their allies as evil monsters incapable of rational thought, but also, they'd get all mortally offended if Soundwave called their humans "pets" to their faces.

IDK, I'm not wording this well, but just the idea of the bots and cons pitching a fit over the implied level of affection they have for their humans, made complicated by the connotations of the words they used, is funny to me. Also, I love my cat, I respect that she could easily blind me if she wanted to, and her being called my pet tells everyone how loved she is.

Finally, thank you for this lovely update! Beautiful work

This was a comment I got on 'Falling Stars' yesterday, and I need to talk about it!

This is honestly such a cool comment! And it words the way I think about it perfectly! They both very clearly have different ways of perceiving humans. Especially because the term 'pet' is not always a bad thing. Think like for us, I would die for my pet dogs, I know I would. They are some of the best things in my life, and it really is so interesting to think about.

This also really helps emphasize how you can tell the different ways you interact with that person. The Autobots humans demand to be treated as equals, not be talked down to. They would be upset at any implication otherwise, especially if they were called pets.

Danny simply doesn't care how they treat him, and honestly, in some cases, it can be seen as normal, especially around ghosts. And he is totally fine with it. It also makes how you see him interact with the cons so much funnier.

Welcome to Writing Tea & Tips!: Tumblr Community𓂃🖊

Heya there, I'm Writer's Potion, your writing neighbor :)

Did you know that Tumblr recently rolled out COMMUNITIES? Well they have, and I simply could not not create a writers' community where we:

Post memes about writing

Rant about our WIPs

Ask/give out advice and tips

Force the little people residing in our heads PAY RENT.

Currently, you can only join a community on an invite-basis, so PLEASE COMMENT BELOW IF YOU'D LIKE TO JOIN!

limit: 500 members (looking for 499 more of you!!!)

It’s currently only possible to join and participate in communities using your primary blog. You won’t be able to join, post, or reply using a secondary blog.

If you're wondering what communities are, look here.

[wild-karrde]

Y'all... I cannot stress enough how you need to interact with things in order to maintain a fandom community.

I have seen absolutely abysmal interaction with everything I've posted lately, and it is IMMENSELY disheartening. Of course, I create it for me, but I choose to share it with everyone and want to get excited about it WITH YOU. And it seems that every other artist/writer/creator I know is experiencing the same thing.

If you're one of the people that regularly interact or just have hit a bit of a speedbump lately, then please know I'm not talking to you. I'm also not talking to other creators that have to choose between engaging or creating (and sometimes just don't have the bandwidth). I'm talking to the blogs that ask for more and then never comment or share. I'm talking to the people that sign up for tag lists and then are never heard from again. I'm talking to blogs that spam like but haven't reblogged anything since 2022. Y'all, this site thrives off of interaction. That is how it works. You have to help things circulate, and it is so frustrating to see the entire place in a collective slump. I have been blocking blogs left, right, and center that do not share things, and I will continue to do so. But it is such a freakin' bummer to see the state of things at the moment.

Hell, I started a sideblog for Fandom Friday (@fandom-friday), and have only received a handful of submissions after getting asked numerous times when it would be coming back. IT'S BACK. IT'S HERE. WHERE IS EVERYONE????? I figured after a few months' break, that people would have plenty of submissions stacked up, but that has not been the case AT ALL.

Fandom communities are such incredible places, but it's felt like a ghost town around here lately with the writers and artists just screaming into the void to PLEASE INTERACT WITH OUR STUFF. Please show up for one another because it is so very soul-crushing to watch everyone I know just feel completely disheartened. I cannot tell you how depressing it is to spend hours and hours carefully crafting something, being genuinely excited about it, and get almost no interaction or response other than a few likes and comments.

PLEASE INTERACT WITH THINGS YOU LIKE OR ELSE THERE WON'T BE ANY MORE THINGS TO INTERACT WITH.

[nandermoenthusiast]

not them having a fucking showdown about which one of them was more devoted to the other………… not them making it a fucking competition and a fucking argument which one of them is more down bad horrendous for the other and STILL they havent had their realisation in the dead of night/day while lying in their bed/coffin that the other has feelings for them

V: 잠만 이 글 너무 명석해보이잖아 (https://weverse.io/bts/artist/0-156513041)

Is it spring outside? Hwacheon just got 17cm of snowfall. But I heard somewhere in Jeonbuk it's been above 20 degrees. South Korea truly is a country where the four seasons are all so clearly present, such a cool nation.

Umm Suddenly, one of my juniors has started making igloos in front of the barracks. I feel like I'm going to have so many memories to take away from this place Yeah.. It's a strange world.

At around this time, college students are probably going back to college, and school kids are probably starting a new semester. For me, finally, my days in the military have fallen to the double digits I feel like Robin Hood, crossing out the days on my calendar. Have I become a castaway? Maybe.. I might have

After we do the evening roll call, I always spend my leisure time reading. Recently, I read Erich Fromm's 'The Art of Loving', which I'd been meaning to read for a while. The art of loving, what on earth could that mean? Love as something that you have to work for.. that doesn't make sense. In a nutshell, this is what the book talks about: In order to be good at painting, or playing the guitar, or being good at studying, we practice hundreds of times to develop our skills. So then why, when it comes to love, the most important thing in a person's life, do we just try do it, with no skill, no practice?

In our modern world, love is something that's intensified by the media and capitalism, and only the drama of it is emphasised but, in reality, love is a determined resolution, a promise and a decision. There are probably many different types, and temperatures, and expressions of love. What about us? Not a one-to-one love, but a one-to-many or many-to-all love, what could we be? What does the person making music make, and what do the people listening to the music hear? What are we gazing at, what are we loving? With what resolution have I been standing in front of you for 11 years? I spent some time with these tender thoughts. The conclusion… I recommend reading the book. (It was published over 50 years ago though, so it does have some old-fashioned ideas)

Three months left now. In terms of percentages, that's 18%. Will I die before then? I'll be sure to greet you in good health. This hyperbolic time chamber… the further I go, the stronger gravity feels. Maybe it's because I have the four lines now.² They move so disgustingly slow, but the hands on the military clock do move, even if you hang the clock upside down. I'll try hanging it upside down, and turning the hands, and tilting it 540 degrees, I'm trying it all. I'll do my best to come back to you with my love and my heart reset.

I have so many things to tell you, both through music and through language. It's spring now, spring's coming! (After the 17cm of snow has been cleared) Right when you start to think "It's gotten kinda hot, hasn't it?" We'll be out and bothering you so much it gets annoying. Until then, I hope you guys are killin it. Okay, I'm gonna get back to the webtoon I was reading. I love you, today too, as always. This is both a resolution and a promise.

I miss you. Early summer, grasshoppers Can you guys please hurry up?!

It snowed. I cleared the snow out. I had a snowball fight. I'm quite good at snowball fights. I became a level 2 sergeant. I'm now the second highest rank here, soon I'll be the first. I recently became a special forces officer. I worked out really hard. I went so hard I broke a rib, it's fine now. I'm on a diet now. I'm 70 kilos. I've read a lot of books. Lee na nuna gave me lots of books. She gave me too many. I cannot read all of them. There is no insomnia here. I pass out as soon as I lie down. But I still find it so hard to get used to waking up in the morning. I miss ARMY a lot so I've been watching a lot of concert videos. I want to dance. I want to sing. A junior of mine said he learnt the whole Black Swan choreo and aksed me to watch. I don't know the choreo. I have forgotten it. I've been watching Buried Hearts lately. Mr. Park Hyungsik is such a cool actor. I watched Mr. Jung Hoseok's I Live Alone episode. I am now Jung Appreciation*. I was very sad that I couldn't go to the concert. It would have been a chance to see ARMY. And uhh yeah anyway I miss you! I love you!🩶

V: How was that, did it sound intelligent?

RM: You pass out as soon as you lie down? So jealous.

RM: You should release an album sometime as Kim Intelligent.

Picture translation: All I have is you

(T/N: A play on the words '호감', 'appreciation', and '영감', inspiration, which was mentioned during J-hope's 'I Live Alone' episode.)
