#He's just waiting for Jay to realize so they could actually make out and stuff

[lunewolf13]

Tim and Jason were munching on Batburgers mid-patrol. Entirely out of the blue Tim says: By the way, I'm bi.

Jason pauses, then swallows his burger: Uh, okay?

Tim: I just wanted to tell you. In case, you know, you think no one would accept you.

Jason: ...Huh??

Tim: Yeah, there's a reason why I brought this up. What I'm trying to tell you is that B told me to tell you that you can bring your boyfriend over for dinner whenever you want.

Jason just stares at Tim, wondering if he's experiencing a fever dream because what??

Jason: What boyfriend??

As far as he knows, there is no boyfriend. Why does Bruce think there is a boyfriend??

Tim being understanding but for a completely different context: It's okay, Hood. I'll tell him you said no. No need to deny it.

Jason continues to be baffled: Thanks. But I don't have a boyfriend.

Tim does not believe him: Sure, sure. So, when's the next time Arsenal plans to visit Gotham?

Jason goes back to eating his burger and pretending he's not totally confused by the change in topic: Uh, this Thursday. I'm gonna help him with Lian's birthday cake, and brainstorm gift ideas.

Tim: Uh-huh. Hope you have guys have fun :)

falling for you (literally)

𓍯𓂃 fluff park jongseong x female reader. works word count: 1500 non-idol au, high-school au, new relationship.

where jay lies to his new girlfriend (and embarrasses himself) just because he doesn´t want to tell her he has never skated in his life.

apparently, the chilly winter air was not cold enough to stop park jongseong from lying through his teeth and getting himself in uncomfortable situations.

regret was filling his insides as he took another step closer to the ice rink, he had arrived earlier to wait for you and prepare mentally for the fact that he was going to be skating for the first time in his life after he assured your entire friendgroup he was pretty much an expert ice skating.

newsflash, he lied.

jay would not consider himself to be neither nosy or a liar, but after he saw you talking with your friends in the empty classroom about how much you loved the winter season and doing the typical cliche stuff in the breaks after school, the only words that registered his mind were love and ice skating.

so later in the day when both of you where in your usual study dates in the library. He heard you ask him if you could go on a date on the weekend he decided to be all cool and nonchalant acting like he got the original idea from the back of his mind of doing a winter-themed date he saw your eyes shine with excitement after thinking that both of you were sharing a brain.

seeing the enthusiasm on your face was one of the things that could make park jongseong melt and what was he if not a simple man who loved making the girl he liked happy?

have you been dating for less than 3 months? yes

but that didn't stop his heart from rushing even faster after he saw you smile with your eyes and his brain feeling like mush after seeing your warm flush. if he could he felt like he would give you the world after seeing you bat your eyelashes, so he did not register the moment he said you could go ice skating until later in the day when he actually remembered, he did not know how to skate.

he didn't know how he could forget that minuscule detail, and he was still not in his right mind when he called his friends to teach him how to skate over the phone in less than two days. needless to say, his friends had a good laugh.

so, here he was, sweating even though it was almost freezing. he swore he could not sleep last night after watching multiple ice-skating for dummies videos. waiting for you to arrive at the rink, hoping he thought of a better idea of a date before he embarrassed himself in front of you.

he could be honest and tell you that he didn´t know how to skate, or maybe say he hurt his foot after last football practice. but no, he kept digging himself deeper and truly believed he cool fool you. and he considered himself smart.

as he saw you being dropped off by your parents car running towards him he waved with a nervous smile in his face. this was going to be a hell of an experience. the small talk between you both was not entirely being registered by his brain, apart from his nervous breakdown he thought your outfit made you look even prettier, seeing your hair half up with a ribbon and it matching your jacket and gloves the blush in his cheeks was becoming more apparent and it was not for standing fifteen minutes outside.

while his hands shook after receiving the skates and he attributed it to the cold he took some good seconds of hyping himself up in silence hoping and praying he would not make a fool of himself so early in the relationship.

it became a blur in his mind whether he was doing a good job fooling you into thinking he was a good skater or if he was portraying baby bambi and after some dazy spins that ended with him smashing himself onto the floor and seeing your surprised face as you tried to help him get back on his feet to get out of the rink as quickly as you had entered he finally realized he made a mistake by lying.

now he was bleeding through his nose and his mind finished processing that he was not able to see you enjoy skating with him because he was more busy focusing on not making a fool of himself than enjoying his time with you.

and he was not successful in either of them.

with regret showing in his face, he sat alone at the bleachers a little thankful that you were the only people at the rink and no one else saw him falling. holding his face up to avoid covering himself in blood while you ran to get some tissues his emotions were all over the place without knowing if the feeling of embarrassment was bigger than the feeling of disappointment.

he heard you come back and while you held his face in place while dabbing the tissue on his nose to clean up the blood, the disappointment he felt for ruining one of your first dates was the thing he felt the most. your worried voice was the only thing he felt not caring of any pain left from his nose or the cold air in the rink. he truly felt bad for ruining it.

"I'm sorry," he said while holding your hand holding his jaw.

you looked at him curiously as you tried to understand where he was coming from "why? jay it's okay it was an accident the ice is way too smooth right now."

he sighed while finally removing your hand from his face and fully holding it in between both of his.

"I lied to you," he said "I don´t know how to skate I just heard you talk about how much you loved it and I just said it. I didn't expect it to be so hard and I was trying to make myself look cool"

he told you as he avoided looking into your eyes as he sighed "and I got so stressed that now I ruined our whole date" he signaled his nose stuffed with tissue paper that was starting to turn red as well "I'm sorry I wasted your evening"

"it's really okay jay," you said comforting him with a smile. “I didn’t waste my evening I really do enjoy spending my time with you even if it's doing nothing," you caressed his hands hoping to calm him down

"but you should´ve told me if you were nervous or if you don't know how to do something," you told him "just like how you help me study when I'm having trouble understanding the lecture you can rely on me more often, I could've taught you"

"I thought I would look lame," he said looking at you with regret

"and do you look cool right now?" you questioned him with a little mischief.

"well, no" he answered shyly making you laugh.

"see? you are not super cool for acting nonchalant, you can just tell me the things from the beginning and I can help you do them in the future" you told him trying to make him feel better "that way we can avoid future accidents right?" you said while brushing his hair out of his forehead.

"okay, I can do that" he said finally smiling, he felt comfort in you not judging him and actually finding him cute instead of dumb for avoiding telling you something as insignificant since the beginning.

he needed to learn to let his guard down with you since you kept encouraging him to be honest and to rely on you more often, he was not used to telling someone everything about him without the fear of being judged but he knew that now he had you in his life he could start opening up and understanding he didn't need to be perfect all of the time.

"now, how about I teach you how to skate?" you said while getting up and looking down at him with a smile "we still have all of the evening"

he looked at you in silence "if you don't want to we can go grab a hot chocolate or some cake" you said interrupting his thought process

"are you sure? what if I fall again?" he asked nervously not really listening to your last option as he saw you extending your hand to him

"don't worry, we'll take it slow," you said "and you can always hold my hand, I'm not letting you go okay?"

he held your hand while getting up and throwing the dried and bloody tissue to the bin "okay, let's do it"

you smile while reaching up to kiss his cheek while excitingly going to the rink again but now jay no longer felt as anxious of falling knowing you were there to help him get up.

and maybe jay fell even deeper in love with you after that day.

- Jay flirts with you constantly, even before you're dating. He loves seeing you flustered.

- He’s used to casual relationships, so when he realizes he actually cares about you, it freaks him out a little.

- At first, he teases you playfully, always testing boundaries—grabbing your wrist to pull you close, slinging an arm around your shoulders, and making cheeky comments.

- When he realizes he likes you for real, he gets a bit more nervous around you, but tries to hide it behind his usual charm.

- He definitely tries to impress you with his athletic skills. Parkour, sword fighting, you name it—he’ll make sure you’re watching.

- Jay is super protective. If anyone talks bad about you, he’s immediately stepping up, ready to fight.

- He’s very physical—hand-holding, sitting close, arms draped around your shoulders—PDA is no issue for him.

- Dates are always adventurous. He takes you on crazy, spontaneous outings—sneaking into Auradon’s restricted areas, rooftop races, late-night swims, etc.

- He loves calling you nicknames like "Pretty Boy" or "Champion," especially if it gets a reaction out of you.

- He lives for inside jokes. You two develop so many that Mal, Evie, and Carlos roll their eyes whenever you burst into laughter.

- Jay tries to play it cool, but if someone flirts with you, his arm is immediately around your waist, and he’s making it very clear that you're his.

- He won’t make a big scene, but his body language changes—his jaw clenches, his usual smirk falters, and his grip on you tightens.

- If you tease him about being jealous, he’ll deny it with a cocky grin—"Me? Jealous? Please. I know I’m the best you’ve got."

- But later, he’ll make sure to remind you why he’s the one you’re with—whether through affectionate teasing, showing off, or stealing extra kisses.

- Jay isn't used to being open about emotions, but with you, he feels safe enough to let his guard down.

- Late at night, when it’s just the two of you, he’ll admit things he wouldn’t tell anyone else—his fears of not being good enough, his struggles growing up on the Isle, and how much he values you.

- He absolutely melts if you play with his hair or scratch his scalp—it’s one of the few things that makes him go completely soft.

- He always acts like he's invincible, but when he's exhausted or stressed, he'll just flop down next to you and sigh, waiting for you to comfort him.

- Jay is incredibly loyal. Once he’s committed to you, he’s all in.

- He always hypes you up—whether you’re training, studying, or just existing, he makes sure you know how amazing you are.

- He dreams of traveling the world with you, experiencing things he never could on the Isle.

- Jay's love language is a mix of physical touch and acts of service —he’s always finding ways to take care of you, whether it’s carrying your stuff or making sure you’re safe in a crowd.

- Even years later, he still flirts with you like it’s the first time, just to see you smile.

my very first love ! — 24: break my heart?

wc: 963

written part below the cut!

"How much of that did you hear?" He asked, he stared back at you blankly, almost as if he didn't believe you were real.

"I think a lot more than I was supposed to." You answered honestly, Riki opened his mouth to speak, but both of your phones were buzzing incessantly with texts from your captains.

He sighed, before turning his phone off and looking back at you. "Let's talk after the show. There's so much I want to say to you."

⌢⌢⌢⌢⌢୨୧⌢⌢⌢⌢⌢

You were set to perform right after Enha, which Soobin was very much unhappy with. Thankfully, though, they actually performed their own choreo this time.

This hardly calmed Soobin down, however, because god— were they killing it.

Their power on stage demanded the attention of the audience and their charisma helped to distract from any mistakes they could have made.

Heeseung shot Soobin a smirk on their way off stage, and it took everything in Soobin not to choke him out right then and there.

For any team, they would have been impossible to follow up.

Not for your team, though.

It was the performance of a lifetime. You don't think you had ever put this much of your blood, sweat, and tears into anything before. And now, here you were, ready to see all of it pay off.

After your performance, you and the rest of the novas sat eagerly backstage, waiting for the rest of the teams to finish performing and for scores to be announced.

This was one of the biggest, most important moments of your high school career, but you couldn't get your mind off Riki.

All the things he told Jiwoo backstage, were they true? Would you be an idiot for letting him back into your life after he had already hurt you so bad?

You were far from discreet, and the way you and Riki kept making prolonged eye contact backstage almost killed you.

Your team, along with all of the others, stood at the wings of the stage as they announced the winners. Third place had been given to a team from Daegu, and you waited in anticipation for the top two.

"In second place," The announcer began, "from HYBE academy of the arts, ENHYPEN."

You watched as the boys' faces fell. However, they sucked it up and put on a smile as they walked out.

"And finally, in first place, the Korean Junior National champions, also from HYBE academy of arts, SUPERNOVA."

You couldn't believe it.

You almost thought that you had heard them wrong. But no, you had won. You actually beat ENHYPEN. For the first time ever, they didn't take away your spotlight.

Soobin made sure to walk out with the biggest shit-eating grin on his face, staring directly at the boys the entire time. He gracefully accepted the trophy, and it almost looked like he was about to cry.

You were over the moon, all the hard work you and your teammates had been put in for the past year was finally paying off. You showed ENHYPEN- and the entire school, that you were done living in their shadows. And as you looked at Riki, he smiled and sent you a thumbs up.

⌢⌢⌢⌢⌢୨୧⌢⌢⌢⌢⌢

When Riki finally found you backstage, you didn't know what to say. You smiled at him, and you wanted to say something, but no words came out.

"Congratulations on your win. You deserved it, really." He said, a soft yet embarrassed smile on his face.

"Thanks, Riks. I really appreciate it. How'd your team take the news?" You asked, out of pure curiosity. You knew that team, and you knew they were most likely throwing nothing short of temper tantrums right now.

"Better than I thought they would, to be honest. Except for Jay, I'm pretty sure he stormed out and drove home." You laughed, and so did he. It was nice hearing his laugh, you hadn't even realized how much you missed it.

It was silent for a while before you finally looked back at him. "About earlier- I didn't mean to eavesdrop, it's just-"

"It's okay, y/n. It's all stuff I wish I would've told you before, anyways, and I hate that I never did." He cut you off, and you were a little shocked. "I never knew why I got so flustered around you before. I have never felt this nervous around someone before, ever. But when it comes to you, I go crazy."

He paused, searching for any hint of emotions in your expression, but kept going.

"I like- No, I love you y/n. And I don't care if our teams hate each other, I don't care if you think we would never work, I don't care if there are a million logical reasons why we shouldn't be together. Because I love you, y/n. And I think that's the only reason we need to tell us that we should."

"Riki, I don't even know what to say." You chuckled, cheeks bright red from the sudden confession. "I agree that there are a million reasons we shouldn't be together."

His face fell slightly as he braced himself for rejection, but you kept going.

"But I love you too, Riki. You make me want to be the best version of myself that I can be. I think we owe it to ourselves to try."

The smile that appeared on his face was so bright, you would've thought he was the one who won a national competition today. He engulfed you in a hug so tight you thought you were going to lose all air in your lungs.

"You gonna break my heart, y/n?"

"Only if you break mine first." You teased, and this time, he placed a chaste kiss on your lips.

⌢⌢⌢⌢⌢୨୧⌢⌢⌢⌢⌢

transfem! jason grace headcanons because i said so 🐺🌩️👓 🩵

- goes by jay or jayce when she's feeling fem (also funny because then her first name rhymes with grace)

- she/he pronouns!!!!

- some amount of gender fluidity in there (she's not fully binary trans but definitely likes being feminine. i'm feeling like demigirl and demiboy at the same time. he's a girlboy.)

- in conjunction with @aroaceleovaldez 's headcannon, he LOVES skirts. 9 times out of ten after coming out, you will find her in a skirt. she likes the long, flowy ones the best.

- realized that his relationship with piper was really just him having gender envy for most of it. remember that scene where piper gets claimed and she gets that "aphrodite makeover" and jason's like "omg, she's so pretty"? yeah, he just really, really, really wanted to wear the dress.

- the all-boys school stint was when she was deep, deep in denial. she spent a few months there and disliked it. heavily (also he doesn't die in this au/headcanon because i said so.)

- thalia was the first person to know because she also fucks with gender like that. he was actually the person who inspired jay to come out.

- like jason saw them doing their gnc thing (in my mind thalia uses any pronouns) and something clicked. it's the "oh wait. could i live like that too?" moment.

- she's not super into makeup but she likes playing with it every now and then. it's just too much of a hassle most days.

- has rose gold glasses. there's no basis to this other than i've had rose gold glasses and i think she would really like them (fem but also a little androgynous).

- is the buffest woman you will ever meet. like holy hera, she looks like wonder woman most of the time. but actually only uses his muscles for cuddling with leo. also her arms look amazing when she's in formal dresses (this is very important to me. i <3 buff women in dresses).

- piper gives jason a bunch of her old dresses from movie premiers and stuff. piper never liked them much and she'd rather they get used by someone who actually wants them. they make a whole day out of it and get the dresses tailored to jay's body so they fit a bit better.

- just. transfem! jason grace <333

[bleed-more]

Hi!

I found your blog because of your ask blog and have been keeping up to date with Tim's asker antics. I just felt the need to get out some opinions in a place I know someone will hear it, and my brain is telling me I can't do shit about Marble Hornets on my own blog until I post my own art about it, so I hope you're fine with me rambling about it here. (If I'm somehow crossing a line of sorts, please let me know.) Also, fair warning. This is long. Very long. I put a TL;DR at the bottom.

I feel like this fandom should appreciate Seth as a character more. Most people kinda just use him as the secondary butt to "brought the dog" jokes, and while that is an amusing line, I feel like Seth has a lot of untapped potential as a character that isn't really thought about because of that joke being spun into his only personality trait. From what I've seen, people seem to entirely forget or ignore a little something about him being the founding member of ToTheArk. He and Brian are the only two characters throughout the entire story to work together successfully. Tim and Brian? They fell out. Jay and Alex? They fell out. Tim and Jay? You guessed it, they fell out. Seth and Brian are the only ones who could actually work together in a functional partnership until the end, but because people only really bring up Seth as the guy Alex yelled at for bringing his dog, that leaves a lot of untapped potential with their dynamic. What kind of person was Seth to be the only person able to collaborate with someone successfully while under the Operator's influence? Were him and Brian already close before it all happened? Was he just the only one with decent communication skills?? Plus, he's the one who started guiding Jay on the path towards answers, which implies that he knows quite a lot about what's going on. I personally imagine Seth to be a similar person to Jeff from EMH. He's calm and collected, good with tech, and quite good with solving and creating puzzles. Intelligent and very caring, wanting to see all the people he cares about make it out alive, so he's doing his best to help get this stuff sorted out for good while trying to maintain a level of anonymity so nobody else he loves gets caught in the cross fire.

TL;DR: People should really start thinking about Seth's dynamics and him as a character more beyond him bringing his dog.

YES YES YES YOU NAILED IT I 100% AGREEE

I have an entire novel's worth of headcanons I've collected about Seth because listen listen hear me out...

90% of the loose ends and plot holes left in Marble Hornets, when filled by Seth, make for an EXTREMELY compelling story that opens up an entire second off-screen plot line with Seth and Brian going parallel with Jay and Tim.

I feel like Night Mind said it best on his "Marble Hornets Explained series":

"When you finally stop to think about everything we've revealed, you begin to realize Marble Hornets was never actually a horror story."

"It was a revenge story."

I actually plan on digging into this fully through Act 3 of @ohgreat-moretapes 👀👀👀 and until then if you guys send headcanon asks here I will answer them!!!! (Just keep in mind some theories I propose about Seth might technically be "spoilers" if you wanna wait for the reveals over at the ask blog. I'll don't think ask blog spoilers will happen too often but just in case I'll put a spoiler warning above posts like that).

@sunnytheopossum is also working on a comic detailing the off-screen rise and fall of ToTheArk which I am SO HYPE for, so go send him lots of love and support too!!!

We need more Seth advocates out there!!! We shall canonize him the way he deserves!!!!

[cookiedough77]

PLEASEEEEEE IM DYING TO KNOW ABOUT YOUR OCSSSSS 🛐🛐🛐🛐🛐🛐

oh my gah

well heres some... refrences i made a while back GAH I NEED TO DRAW MORE OF THEM UH UH UH

man ok so i put alot of their lore into a google doc ill just like copy and paste alot of it here:

Okok more of a deep dive on these guys because i wanna do more with them

OK JAY BACKSTORY

So initially, jays mom like wiped out a bunch of superheroes, like when jay was really young (he cant remember it) and shortly after, what very little heroes were left or heroes who were only “super” because of the gear they had, an order was created, to try and take her down

His entire life he was raised by his evil ass mom, mainly manipulating him inot thinking humans were bad (they are generally human but with so much magic into their system that they really arent anymore i guess, similar to like a vampire or a werewolf or something). Its not that jay didnt believe his mother but more of he knew something was wrong with what she was doing, how she was going about things

His mother was a wanted criminal for years, and she was mainly destructive or whatever because her husband died idk-

Im making this up as i go, her husband died from too much magic intake? Like he couldnt handle it, but jays mother blamed humanity because “they were the ones holding him back from his potential” 

Jay barely knew his father, so its not like he had a super connection to him

Now while he was growing up, he didnt actually see his mother attack superheros, mainly took her anger out on civilian, even then she didnt like kill them or anything. So he didnt see his mother as a bad person….. UNTIL 

A new superhero actually DID show up, or merely, one that was “taken down” and came back, and maybe or maybe not jays mother wanted him to kill whoever it was and hes like “uh NO????” she does it herself and jay immediately wants out of this, but he doesnt exactly have a choice, so he starts disobeying her for like a year, and then…

Another superhero shows up, a young one, a new one, a vulnerable one. Im not exactly sure how kylo and jay interact and stuff at first because i guess its the “beginning” not the backstory idk sooooooo save that for later!!!

Anyway well i guess kylos next which is complicated man

Gah you’ve heard about this, one of a bunch of orphans actually survived some mutation and that was kylo, who initially wasnt even given a name, kylos name shows up later

So because theres a “superhero shortage” the order decided instead of waiting, to just make more, no matter how, they just needed strong enough heroes to take down any threats, including jays mom, and yes i know i need a name for her

Now remember when i talked about kylo having “siblings” yeah so there are others, just none of the orphans, “failed attempts” before kylo, too much of the mutation so they're not really “usable” and they science people are trying their hardest to make them “work” they also dont see them as real people!!! Hahahaha

Anyway kylo was kinda like raised like this, usually isolated from the other attempts because she was “perfect” and it was mainly two scientists taking care of kylo, they were new, and didn’t have much experience in the field, kylo was their first “assignment” and btw idk they’re a couple, and when kylo turned 10 they both suggested before kylo going out and “being a superhero” that she should like interact with real people, she looked human enough, and she could blend in, and learn like basic empathy from other people/kids

The order approved this and those are basically kylos adoptive parents.

BUT not before wiping all of kylos memory!!! Hahah they’ve tested it out before, and decide to use it on kylo, to not mess with anything, and the memory just doesnt “go away” its like a polaroid camera and rolls of memories spills out, and they keep it safe, locked away

So kylo spends like 3 years homeschooled, and realizes that shes “different” than others (kylos parents didnt really explain anything to them (they werent allowed)). So she comes up with a dumb constume like all heros and decides to make good use out of it

This all leads up to the actual beginning of the story which is like i dont even know where to start but like i can tell you that kylo and jay team up, obviously jay has more experience with his abilities and is like the main person to take down his mother, but kylo definitely helps

The order “meets” kylo and lets her stay obviously, and jay… well they’re wary of him, and make him stay in the building (where the order resides) to keep an eye on him, and this is basically where jay stays until like hes 18

Jays “indenity” is quickly released to the public, an requirement from the order, and jay tries to do whatever they say to make him seem trustworthy (because he is, my poor boy), all while, kylo is instructed to not tell ANYONE who they are, and kylo follows the rules at first, but over the years she likes to challenge them alot.

Jay and kylo quickly become friends and trust eachother obviously uh uh, yeah, theirs other villains of course, and kylo and jay become friends even while civilians but kylo is told to “not get so close” but they try anyway bruh idk

A lot of things happen and ill probably draw some stuff out or talk about it because man theres so much up in this noggin and it yearns to be free

Hello lovely people! 🌸

(snippet of fanfic at the end)

Hi everyone! I'm not exactly new here, but I've never really posted anything before. I lurked in the dark, sometimes appearing in someone's comments, but mainly silently devouring fanfic for Azriel because I'm such a sucker for our shadowsinger 🖤

But now that I've got a lot of free time on my hands, I've decided to give a shot at writing something of my own and share it with anyone who'd be willing (and kind enough) to read it.

And while I work on the final scenes of my first fic, I thought it could be a nice idea if maybe I introduced myself a little a bit? I don't know, maybe no one really cares, but maybe someone does? So here it is.

🌸 I'm Italian, so forgive me if there are some mistakes or some weird stuff, but don't feel bad about calling me out on it so I can improve ✨️ it's my first time writing something other than an essay or dissertation in English after all

🌸 My name is Yennifer (not very Italian, I know), but you can call me Yen or Yenni. Whatever you like works tbh

🌸 I started writing when I was 10 and the first thing I ever wrote was a crossover for Harry Potter and Narnia, in which Peter and Ginny ended up together. I actually rewrote the whole thing at 13, then again at 15, and then I started writing a sequel. When I tell you I made that my whole personality for a few years, I mean it

🌸 I studied Foreign Languages and Literatures in university (and hopefully it helped with mastering English enough to use it for fanfics) and I recently graduated. I'm currently waiting and praying for my admission to the Master program

🌸 I've always wanted to be a writer, but since now I'm old enough (22 lol) to realize I'm not sure I've got what it takes to plan, write and finish (they tell me this is an important part of it) a whole ass book, my dream job is translator: reading, writing and languages all in one. What else could I possibly want?

🌸 My favorite authors are Jay Kristoff, TJ Klune and Jojo Moyes. If we stick to classics, I love Oscar Wilde and a few Italian dudes probably not many know

🌸 I love the color blue in all its shades, so I like to think it as fate that Azriel's color is cobalt 💙

🌸 I am OBSESSED with music. I can't live without it and I'm not even exaggerating. If I'm not listening to music, then there's still music playing in my mind and it never shuts up. Sometimes it can even be a bit frustrating. But whether it's real or just in my head, music is playing 24/7 around here

🌸 In case you couldn't tell, I particularly like this flower emoji. I just think it's really cute and a nice change from the usual lil red heart

Now, before I wrap this up, here's the little snippet I promised. Enjoy!

His shadows lunged forward as if they wanted to reassure her, but he held them back. He approached her slowly, stopping just in front of her. He crouched down next to her and waited for her to meet his eyes before speaking.

“Let me help,” he said, unable to hide his concern any longer. He wanted to erase that haunted look from her eyes and he’d do anything to make her feel safe and protected again.

“You’re not alone, Y/N,” he continued, his tone gentle. In his mind, he was cursing himself for not having thought that she might experience this kind of problem. “I could help you. We can do it at your pace and stop whenever you wish.”

She stared into his eyes and it felt like an eternity passed before she nodded. Relief flooded his chest at her trust, her willingness to finally let someone help her.

[...]

Tears were streaming down her face and she sobbed, drawing her legs close to her chest and wrapping her arms around them. She began to rock back and forth and maybe she was begging for it to stop, to never start, maybe she was screaming or calling out for someone, maybe she wasn’t saying anything at all.

As that dark freezing water closed over her and pulled her under, she knew the pain would come soon. And there was nothing she could do to stop it. She was drowning and there was nothing she could do, nothing she could do, nothing she could…

A tender, gentle touch on her cheek. From far away, someone called her name. And among the chaos, the darkness, the crippling fear, she saw a pair of hazel eyes, soft and yet concerned. A male voice assuring her that she was safe, that he was with her.

She wanted to believe that voice, but the water was pulling her under, cold and dark and terrifying. And yet that gentle voice was still talking to her, those hazel eyes still looking into hers, and she tried to hold on to them, to not let it all slip away.

And then someone took her hand and suddenly she felt something thumping beneath her palm. A heartbeat, she realized. Life.

Heartbeat meant life. Not death, not pain.

Life.

That didn't work out...

Fandom: Enhypen

Sickie: Jay

Caregivers: Jungkook (BTS) & Niki

Prompt: 'Sick in an inconvenient place' @sicktember

No one’s POV.:

Jay had already woken up feeling a little off that morning. They had the day off, so he didn’t bother to get out of bed yet. All he had planned to do that day was to head to the gym in the afternoon. Niki had been pestering him for a while, wanting to go work out together and they had been making plans for weeks already. Aware that he’d need his energy that afternoon, Jay simply rolled over and continued to doze for almost two hours. He didn’t have an appetite, so he put off breakfast and stayed in bed instead. “If you wanna go to the gym with Niki later, you should really eat something”, Jake reminded as he picked an outfit to go shopping with Sunghoon, Sunoo and Jungwon, “If you eat right before your workout, you’ll make yourself sick.” Realizing his friend had a point, Jay sighed and rolled out of bed.

When Jay trudged to the kitchen, he found that most of the members had already eaten, while Niki munched some cereal, giving the older an excited wave. The maknae had been waiting for this day for so long, Jay couldn’t help but feel guilty for not matching his energy. His stomach rumbled and he lightly ran his hand over it. It was only now that he realized how bloated it was despite being empty. Not wanting to risk indigestion when going to the gym, Jay decided to have a light meal, just some porridge and fruit. If he got hungry before their workout, he could still eat a protein-bar then. Putting on a smile, he took a seat opposite Niki and hummed: “What kind of workout did you have in mind for today?” – “Hm, I don’t know”, the maknae shrugged, “No cardio training because we do that enough during dance practice. Maybe something for the entire body?” Jay nodded in agreement as he poked at his food. It really had no appeal at all but he’d need the energy, so he forced himself bite after bite.

Though Niki would’ve gladly kept the older company, Jay sent him to go and do his morning routine. Truth was, he wanted the youngest gone, so he wouldn’t have to keep up his façade. When he was alone, Jay pushed the bowl aside and rested his head on the table. He startled when there was a hand on his back and quickly straightened up, looking into Heeseung’s worried eyes. “You okay?”, the oldest asked softly, “You look rather pale to me.” Giving a rushed nod, Jay forced a smile and hummed: “I’m tired still. Kinda regret making plans to go and work out but Niki’s so excited and I’ve been promising him for a while.” – “I’m sure he’d understand if you were sick and wanted to use your day off to rest”, Heeseung mused, studying the younger’s food choice. Furrowing his brows, Jay muttered: “I’m not sick, hyung. Maybe the busy schedules of the past few weeks are catching up to me but it’ll be fine. If I don’t feel good, I’ll just take it easy. I can still be there with him and give him advise and stuff.” The oldest nodded and pushed Jay’s bowl back in front of him. “You should still have something in your system”, Heeseung reminded before leaving to meet up with some friends.

Jay had forced himself to eat most of his breakfast but he just couldn’t bring himself to eat the last few bites, feeling the food sit heavily in his stomach. Though he had been out of bed for a bit now, his energy was still low and he doubted he’d get through a workout without having some caffeine but that would mean challenging his stomach even more. Muffling a burp, he made his way back to his room and plopped onto his bed. Most members were already out enjoying their day off and he was dreading having to leave the dorm. The more time passed, the more Jay was suspecting something was actually wrong with his stomach. Maybe some indigestion brought on by weeks of stress. He’d still have an hour or two till they’d leave for the gym and he didn’t know whether he should ask Niki to go right away in case he’d feel worse later or postpone their workout by a few hours, so he’d hopefully feel better by then.

In the end, Jay did neither. He had spent the past hour sipping some peppermint tea to help his stomach and when that hadn’t helped, he chewed on a slice of ginger, which made his tongue burn but didn’t necessarily help settle his stomach either. Jay winced as he changed into his gym clothes and noticed how bloated his stomach looked. No, he wouldn’t be taking any pictures today. He looked fat. Softly palming at his tummy, he went to get Niki from his room and chuckled when he realized the boy had already been waiting for him. The maknae sipped an energy drink as they made their way to the gym and Jay couldn’t help but envy him. He felt so rundown, there was no way he’d perform well without at least some caffeine but at the same time, he knew he’d make himself sick if he had any.

They were somewhat lucky though, the gym being mostly empty. Jungkook was exercising in one of the far corners and Soobin was just finishing the last round of his routine. Soobin waved at the two as they started to warm up and stretch. Well, Niki stretched, Jay didn’t really dare to. His abs were tense and when he tried to stretch, a cramp twisted his insides, so he decided to really take it easy today beside, he had barely warmed up and was already drenched in sweat. Jay’s felt sore in general, though he hadn’t been to the gym in days and when they picked up the weights, Niki frowned at the dumbbells the older chose. Was his hyung using light ones to not make him feel self-conscious? If Jay had to describe what his arms felt like, overcooked spaghetti was probably the best comparison. He had picked a far lighter weight than he’d usually use but still he struggled to lift it. They had barely started to work out, yet he was ready to go home, his stomach hurting more with every minute.

Niki froze in shock when Jay dropped his weights and rushed over to one of the walls. The older had been mapping out this route since he had first stepped foot into the gym earlier, memorizing the exits and trashcans in case he’d need to make an escape. When his stomach suddenly lurched mid-exercise, he knew he wouldn’t make it to one of the restrooms and rushed over to the closest trashcan. Jay braced himself against the wall as his stomach violently expelled the small breakfast he had forced himself to eat. Over the ringing in his ears, he didn’t hear Niki’s panicked voice, asking him what was happening. Panting, Jay spat into the trashcan and took a seat on the floor as his head spun.

“Pushed yourself too hard?”, Jungkook asked as he made his way over to his dongsaengs. Niki was still rubbing Jay’s back as the older tried to catch his breath, one arm wrapped protectively around his middle as it cramped painfully. Weakly shaking his head, Jay muttered: “Sick.” His voice was scratchy from just throwing up and he swallowed thickly unsure whether he needed to be sick again. “Hyung, why didn’t you tell me you’re sick?”, Niki frowned, feeling guilty as Jungkook brought Jay his water bottle. Tiredly thanking his hyung, Jay took a sip and breathed: “Thought it was just a stress stomach ache or indigestion or something.” – “You’re running a fever”, Jungkook determined, feeling the back of Jay’s neck. “Suspected it”, the younger winced, his skin prickling with goosebumps, “Figured I might be sick when my arms felt so incredibly weak.” – “Wait!”, Niki gasped, “That’s why you picked such light dumbbells?” The other nodded, wiping his eyes. He didn’t want to cry there but he was starting to get overwhelmed. This wasn’t a very convenient place to be sick in.

Jungkook sat with him for a few minutes to see if his stomach would calm down any, while Niki retrieved his hyung’s hoodie from the locker room. “Do you want me to take the two of you home?”, Jungkook offered, studying Jay’s still ghostly pale face. Taking a deep breath to calm his stomach, Jay whispered: “I appreciate the thought, hyung, but no need to cut your workout short because of me. We’ll get home alright.” Niki nodded. He was worried about his hyung but he didn’t want to inconvenience Jungkook either. “I was already mostly done anyway”, the older dismissed, “Have some more water and tell me when you feel ready to move.” Taking a seat on the floor next to Jay, Niki guided the other’s head to rest against his shoulder and Jungkook cooed at the cute sight.

Jay was glad to rest for a bit, the raising fever zapping his energy. He felt humiliated that Jungkook had to go out of his way for him but at the same time, he was incredibly grateful the older was there. “Do you want some gum?”, Jungkook offered as he packed up his bag, “The minty flavor might help with the nausea.” He was right, getting the vile taste off his tongue already did a lot for Jay and he finally deemed it safe to get up. The dizziness still lingered, so Niki wrapped his arms around his waist to steady him. Fortunately for Jay’s dignity, the drive to their dorm was uneventful and he thanked the older for the ride before slinging his bag over his shoulder. Shooting Niki a reassuring smile, Jay rasped: “Sorry, I know you’ve been looking forward to today. We’ll go work out another day, yeah?” – “Are you seriously apologizing for being sick, hyung?”, the maknae frowned, shaking his head in disbelief, “You shouldn’t apologize to me. If you feel like apologizing, apologize to your body for trying to put it through a workout when it clearly wasn’t up for it.”

They didn’t speak another word until they entered the dorm and kicked off their shoes, Jay stunned into silence by the younger’s scolding. “Sorry”, Niki mumbled, “Yeah, I have been looking forward to going to the gym with you but I- I just hate the thought that you’d make yourself suffer for my happiness. I wanted to go and work out together, so I could spend a fun afternoon with you. We could’ve just as well watched movies and I wouldn’t have minded if it meant you were okay, hyung.” Before he could get worked up, Jay pulled him into a hug, reminding: “I really didn’t realize and you know, I wanted to spend a fun afternoon with you too. Actually, I wouldn’t mind watching movies for the rest of the afternoon. Let me just go brush my teeth first.”

Niki sighed as the older disappeared to the bathroom. He still felt guilty but at least he could ensure his hyung would rest now. After texting the group chat to let the other members know that Jay had caught a stomach bug, the maknae made his way to the kitchen and turned on the kettle. He had heard the other’s stomach gurgle when they hugged, so he figured it must still be pretty upset. He’d make some tea and fill a hot water bottle to hopefully help with the cramps a little. Niki left the hot water bottle on the couch and went to his room while he waited for the tea to steep. As he made his way back to the living room, a stack of blankets in his arms, he ran into Jay and smiled: “I hope you already decided on a movie while you brushed your teeth.” The older chuckled at that and got settled on the couch, gratefully accepting the hot water bottle. Sipping his tea, Jay cuddled into Niki’s side and closed his eyes. Sure, they had had different plans but now he was glad, that that didn’t work out.

Restless nights pt3

The guys drove off from the scene as if they where never there. Makalo foot was a little heavy on the gas, still amped up from the adrenaline of the ordeal. With a slightly shaky breath he glances at his best friend.

Makalo: “As cool as it was to help, it was very scary and stressful . I still feel like I’m in that store. Do you think Jay is nervous when he does stuff like that?”

Ethan: *I can’t believe this actually happened today….I never had a gun pointed at me before. They could of gotten hurt because I called them. What if Makalo’s plan didn’t work?Now Jay is going to get worse because of me. I should of did something. Anything…I should of helped. I’m such an idiot I should of been more careful and payed attention to-*

Makalo: “Ethan?”

Coming out of his head,Ethan looks to Makalo before looking around to see they are at another grocery store.Still feeling shaken up Ethan asks,”Why are we here? I thought w-we were going straight home.”

Makalo parked the car off as cold rain started to fall from the sky. Pulling his hood on he smiled,”Because I want to make hot chocolate when we get back home and we don’t have any mix. I’ve been doing some research.”

Ethan:” Research….on hot chocolate?”

Pulling out his phone ,Makalo clicks google. And with a few clicks,he holds his phone up to Ethan.

Makalo: “Doctor Google said that it helps reduce cold and flu symptoms. And it helps put people in a better mood and reduces anxiety. I’m no doctor, but I think we all need some right about now.”

Snorting from his friends answer, Ethan replied,”You really shouldn’t believe everything google tells you…But I wouldn’t mind having hot chocolate today either.”

Makalo: “See it’s working and we haven’t even made it yet. I’ll be back.”

Makalo open the door and jogged quickly inside to get out the rain, but he’s friend closed the door a bit loudly, because behind Ethan he 

hears a low groan.Ethan didn’t turn around, the guilt he felt keeping him still. He knew he should be grateful and move on, but Ethan couldn’t helo but think of what could of happened if he didn’t call or what if the criminals they were against had more numbers. His thoughts where spiraling as always even though the outcome has long been settled.

The shuffling behind him caught his attention as it got louder and out of curiosity Ethan turns around. In the backseat Jay woke up and with a small since at up to look out the window 

with a confused frown. Wearily he looked at Ethan and ask hoarsely,”Where are we?”

Cringing at how bad his voice sounds, Ethan turns away and replies,”A grocery store. Makalo wants to make hot chocolate.”

Waiting for a reply that never came, Ethan couldn’t help but hear shuffling behind him and the question to why Jay was moving so much. The brunette asked what Jay was doing to only be met with silence once again.

Looking over his shoulder, he sees Jay fidgeting and shivering in the seat as if he couldn’t sit still. Glassy green eyes peered at him through dark bangs before disappearing when jay shook his head and quietly mumble,

“I’m not doing anything…it’s just…really cold in here.”

Ethan’s brows furrowed,” It’s probably the fever that’s making you feel chilly….You were suppose to be resting today. I’m sorry….it’s my fault.”

Jay: “What?”

Not responding, Ethan turns on the heat in the car and keeps his eyes on the rain slicked parking lot.

Jay: “Ethan, what happened today isn’t your fault.”

A dry laugh escapes from him and Ethan shakes his head. He didn’t believe him.

Ethan: “Yes it is. I-I called. I shouldn’t have.”

Jay:”Eth-“

Ethan: “I brought danger to both of you. What if something went wrong and you guys got hurt?”

Jay:” E-“

Ethan: “I could’ve got my best friend killed!

A-And now your worse of then you were this morning, because you used your power to save me! I didn’t even listen to my own advice…. Let the police take care of it, yeah rig”

Jay: “Ethan!”

Realizing he was ranting ,Ethan clamps his mouth shut and feels more guilt when Jay gets trapped in another coughing fit after yelling at him to get his attention.

Ethan: *I’m an idiot. I screw up ev-*

Ethan:”Sor-“

Jay: “Stop apologizing.”

Surprised that jay cut him off ,Ethan stops.

Clearing his throat, Jay speaks…

Jay:”What happened today is not your fault. None of us could have known that those criminals was going into the store. It’s not your fault that I’m sick and you didn’t make me worse. Dont beat yourself up when you did nothing wrong.Don’t apologize for things you don’t have control over.”

Ethan: “But I called.”

Jay: “You called because you felt like it was the best decision,right? There is nothing wrong with that. Don’t overthink your decision. You did what you felt was right and nothing bad happened…So don’t get yourself worked up over “ What ifs”…. Makalos ok, I’m ok, and you’re ok.”

Ethan didn’t say anything, as he’s eyes tested uo and his jaw clenched tightly. But the overwhelming feeling of fear and guilt slowly faded away as he replayed those words in his head. Ethan carried a lot of guilt due to his past and felt responsible for when things take a turn for the worse id he felt he played a hand in the outcome. Feeling his eyes water, Ethan quickly scrubbed his eyes with his sleeve but when a hand lands on his shoulder he feels re rest of the negative thoughts clouding his head  fade when he saw the confident look on jays face. He meant every word.

With a tilt of his head, Jay gave a small smile,”Cheer up, we get to go home soon. And have hot chocolate. To me that sounds like a pretty sweet deal.”

Ethan chuckled and wiped the remaining tears with a soft smile,”Thanks Jay.”

Patting Ethan’s shoulder Jay just nods his head and sits back in his seat. After a few more minutes, Makalo comes back with the hot chocolate mix and they head back home.

When they reached the house Makalo grabbed the goods and hurried inside as the rain fell.

Ethan grabbed the umbrella from the back seat and helped Jay out when he saw him coughing and stumbling. He looped jays arm over his shoulder and shield both of them with the umbrella. The two step inside, Ethan noticed Jay looked a bit paler.

Ethan:”You look a little out of it. Do you feel worse?”

Jay:”I’m…fine.”

Rubbing his eyes Jay shuffled back upstairs to his room, but before he reached the steps Ethan gave him the bag of meds and told him what to take. In the kitchen Makalo got started on the hot chocolate.Taking his wet shoes off by the door, Ethan plopped down on the couch and turned the tv over to the news. He’s eyes immediately widened when he saw a blurry image of Makalo and jay.

Ethan: “Hey, they are talking about you two on the news!”

Makalo: “Really?What are they saying?”

Makalo leaned against the wall, his blue eyes glued to the screen. Jay came back down stairs with his suit gone and in his place was his comfy pjs from before with a blanket draped over his shoulders. Sniffing he sat on the other end of the couch and commented nonchalantly…

Jay:”Well it’s not everyday two strangers come in and take out a group of escapees.”

The screen switched from the reporter to interviews of the hostages 

(P1): "This guy just smacked him in the head with a baseball bat and ran out of there!"

(P2): "The lightning guy was there, but I have no idea who the guy with the bat was. It was too dark to tell."

(P3): "What I don’t get is how we get saved by some strangers while the police just stood outside doing nothing!"

(P4): "That lightning guy is not human… he was dodging bullets—I SAW IT WITH MY OWN TWO EYES!"

(P5): "Honestly, as someone who used to work for the police department, I think these two should be charged with reckless behavior. They should’ve let the police handle it."

(P6): "The lightning dude sounded sick, but his face was covered, so maybe it was just that."

(P7): "And the guy glowed like lightning, and then he ran at him like... like WHOOSH! And then this other guy came in and went BAM right in the guy’s face!"

News Reporter: "The two individuals remain unidentified, and the police report that the store’s security system lost power, leaving no footage of the incident. If you have any information on who these two might be, please notify the authorities."

Makalo: "WE’RE FAMOUS!"

Jay: "Why does everyone think I’m not human?"

Laughing at their completely opposite reactions, Ethan headed into the kitchen to get the hot chocolate. While gathering the cups, he watched the rain. The steady rhythm of the raindrops against the window somehow felt calming, even though the scene outside looked gray and gloomy.When he returned to the living room with the drinks, Makalo was still grinning at the TV, clearly entertained by the witnesses varying reactions to their rescue. Jay, on the other hand, seemed unfazed, wrapped snugly in a blanket. His cheeks were still rosy, but he looked much more relaxed than he had in the car.Handing out the cups, Ethan grabbed the remote and changed the channel.

Makalo: "Hey! I was watching that!"

Ethan: "You can watch it later. We’re watching a movie now."

Jay: "What movie?"

The screen lit up with the opening scene of a boy and his dragon.

Without any complaints from his friends, Ethan smiled and pressed play.

Day 23 of Christmas in July!! @techno-wu

More au, big family interaction stuff, it was super fun to do!

Um, relevant things

1- Kaida LOVES dragons

2- Wu will absentmindedly create teacups and leave them around the house

Oh yeah, and Libber is here

Enjoy!

——

Day 23- Christmas Party

Jay had agreed that they could have one big party at the mansion, relieving Garmadon and Misako of some holiday pressure. There was overall agreement that they’d still go out to the monastery for the actual holiday, but another party to celebrate somewhere else meant less pressure to make the actually holiday one big event at the monastery. Not to mention it was a good excuse to exchange their secret Santa gifts.

“I think Kai and Skylor just pulled up,” Libber commented as she walked into the kitchen where Jay and Nya both were.

“I’ll go greet them!” Cole called from another room. “Come on kids!”

Jay heard the scrambling feet of Iris and Essie to go greet the guests.

“All the food is almost ready,” Jay said. “Just some things in the oven. And the table…actually, why don’t we just do it buffet style and people can sit where they want?”

“That’s a good idea,” Nya agreed as she finished washing some dishes. “I’ll get out plates and stuff those, put them on the counters.”

“I’ll go turn on some music,” Libber said happily, practically bouncing off to do that.

“And I’ll…” Jay began, before realizing he was really talking to himself. “I dunno…touch up the decorations…I guess…”

-

Once everyone arrived, it was hectic. Music, and lights, and talking; there was more open space than at the monastery, but somehow it still felt more chaotic.

Dinner was fairly tame, seating arrangements not too different from what happened at the monastery. Really things became much crazier after dinner as they cleaned up.

The children all disappeared, running off to hide somewhere in the house. Coincidentally, Morro wasn’t to be found shortly after that either.

Try as hard as he liked, Jay could not pull Garmadon away from the kitchen. Misako eventually came up to Jay and said it was probably best to let Garmadon help.

“He’ll feel much less awkward and more at peace,” she explained. “I know it’s the same crowd as always, but he’s never been one for social events, and cleaning is his constant grounder.”

Jay sighed, but agreed, only to turn about and find Skylor was helping dry dishes now as Garmadon washed them.

She grinned smugly. “I’d say you can take the worker out of the kitchen and what not, but apparently, you can’t!”

Jay groaned and walked away from the kitchen, opting instead to organize presents.

-

With everything cleaned up, everyone settled into the living room for presents. Had the room been any smaller it would’ve felt crowded. But with just enough space, and great amounts of familiarity, it really was just cozy.

“Why don’t the kids do their secret Santas first, so they aren’t bouncing off the walls waiting?” Skylor suggested, holding a very ecstatic Sora in her lap.

Everyone agreed.

It was always amusing to watch the children, and see what they had gotten, and watch them glow with happiness. Undoubtedly the most exciting instance was Kaida.

She tore through the wrapping paper to reveal a pair of socks. But not just any socks. Dragon socks.

She didn’t hesitate.

They were out of the packaging and on her feet in a matter of seconds. She giggled at the little wings on the side and the silly eyes at the toes.

“Who was it?” She asked glancing around at the others.

“Me,” Iris replied beaming.

“Thank you!” Kaida giggled.

Perhaps the best instance of the adults secret Santa exchange was Wu opening his present.

He was ready to be as surprised as everyone else, because he’d really had no idea what he had wanted.

And although he was surprised, he was certainly not disappointed.

As Wu unwrapped his present, he looked at his, concentrating a moment on it before breaking into a huge smile.

“What is it?” Faith asked, looking over his shoulder. She too smiled, chuckling a little even.

“What does it say?” Kai asked.

“Beware the cups,” Wu responded, barely holding back his laugh.

This earned a fair number of laughs from everybody, particularly those who lived with him, or at the monastery.

“Alright,” Wu said with a deep breath. “Who was it?”

Lloyd slowly raises a hand. “That would be me…got it custom made; seemed fitting.”

“It is,” Faith answered. “The cups can be a tripping hazard.”

Another round of laughter erupted.

It was a good night.

Yeah, I really loved this one!

[onlyjaeyun]

tbh the inspiration hits and I can just write for hours, like I wrote about 10k the other day all at once since the inspiration was inspiring; I just hit that inspiration tree just right and that inspiration just started flowing like maple syrup. I planned on working a bit more on them, but inspo hit for an smau and I've never written one before, so I started writing stuff for it, and I honestly never realized, one how much I hate typing on a phone, and two how much goes into smaus. Like I had to download 3 apps and I realized why I'm a tumblr desktop girly, since I can type like it's no one's business, but I text slower than a grandma. Will I actually write it, maybe, more than likely, once I find my bluetooth keyboard and finish the wips I have that is.

Now that Poison's over it'll be Strictly Business headcannons, but we gotta wait a bit more, we are 3 chapters in and at this point the only thing we could probably say is that Sunghoon would hit if Jay wasn't a cockblock. Since I have no more headcannons, enjoy a little taste of the Sunghoon fic I'm working on:

“Just tell me the truth,” Sunghoon muttered, tired of your silence at that point. He had been standing in your doorway for a good ten minutes, not a single reply had slipped past your lips during that time. Looking at the woman in front of him, he could not stop his heartstrings from tugging, feeling hurt as you stared at the ground dejectedly. From your reaction alone, he could sense you did not want to tell him why you wanted to hide this from him, even now as he stood in front of you there were no words being spoken, he had no idea, but he was not going to let this topic drop. “She’s mine, isn’t she?” He questioned once more, just wanting confirmation at this point. While he wanted words, he saw how your head nodded, defeated almost, like you did not want to give it up, but you had no choice at this point. "How long did you think you could hide that?" He immediately asked afterwards. “Did you not trust me? Did you not love me enough to want me to be in her life? Was I not good enough for you?” 

Each question slipping past his lips was like a dagger to your heart. Tell him the truth, well the truth is that he was the father of your now three year old daughter. How long did you think you could hide it from him, well your mind thought you would have kept it hidden a whole lot longer than just three years, honestly, if you had it your way, he would have never found out about her. Did you not trust him, you trusted him most of all, who you did not trust was yourself. Did you not love him enough, you loved him too much to try to burden him with this. Was he not good enough, as usual he had it backwards, you were the one that was not good enough for him. Despite all the thoughts filling your head, none of them came out, instead only one thing, a simple apology. “I’m sorry,” You muttered, unable to put any of your other thoughts into words. Despite the plethora of words filling your head, begging you to apologize to him, begging you to beg for him to love you once more, to tell him you never stopped loving him; none of those came out, despite how badly they wanted to. You said those words like they would suddenly help the situation, but you knew they would not, they were nothing more than useless at this point, words you were saying trying not to feel as bad as you did. The apology was not for him, but for yourself, thinking that maybe the words falling past your lips might make you feel better about this situation. But the honest truth, it made you feel worse, giving him an apology without any explanation, it was like giving someone an empty gift box, no thought or substance, just giving them what you thought they wanted. Yet, he wanted the truth, he wanted to know everything no matter how badly it hurt, but you knew the truth would not hurt him, it would only hurt you. All these years the truth you had hidden from him, from Sohee, in a way from yourself, would come to light, but internally you had hoped it would not be for more years. You hoped by the time it was exposed he would have moved on, you would have moved on, both too happy to disrupt what you had for the idea of what ifs and what could have been. 

Listening to you apologize in vain, a chill was sent through Sunghoon’s body, it was like ice was chilling his veins. The cold never bothered him usually, even as he stood outside, the gentle snow falling from the dark clouds above during the frigid January temperatures felt like nothing compared to the frozen feeling coursing through his veins. It was like everything froze, himself including, the words you were not speaking resounding much louder than what you did say. His heartbeat boomed within his eardrums, someone could have been screaming in his ear at that moment, and he would have heard nothing. Leaning against the doorframe, he willed his own legs to not give out under him. The photo, the child, your child, his child, he had a child, he had a child out there that he had no idea about. With that thought, his mind went blank, the doorframe being the only thing that supported him from completely falling to the ground in that moment. You had left him because of this, you broke his heart to hide this from him, you had been back who knows how long without even as much as a word to him. Watching as you moved, seemingly welcoming him into your home, out of the elements, safe from the falling snow all around. He moved inside without a word, almost like he was on autopilot. It was like his brain went back to all those days years ago, back in high school when the two of you were dating, and your evenings were spent cuddling on your sofa watching romance movies, attempting to ignore the giggles coming from your mother’s mouth as she spied on the two of you, muttering to your father about young love. Using all his strength to sit on the couch, trying his best not to collapse, despite how badly his body was wishing to give in. He allowed his phone to slip from his hands, falling to the carpeted floor under your coffee table, as he found himself burying his face within his hands. “I will never understand how you could do this.” He said, not even bothering to attempt to make eye contact with you. Emotionally and physically drained, he struggled to find what to say next. “I just, why would you hide this? Why would you hide her? Hide her from me?” Was all he said, before finally looking up at you, his heart breaking with each word.

bestie your way with words is IMMACULATE!!!!!! i'd honestly read everything you give me no matter how long bc it's so easy to read and still so deep and well thought through, you'd be the biggest blessing to the enha writing community 🥺🥺🤍

04/07/2025

Today I finally started journaling I never thought I would find myself back on tumblr. Just to be able to write out my feelings but ofc history repeats itself. Right now I'm going through this huge transformation and I don't know how long this will go but right now I am feeling better. I have HS( Hidradenitis Suppuraativa) basically I get hair bumps all over my body especially my private areas. Luckily I have started eating more clean and now I actually have more engery to do stuff btw I did just clean the kitchen and the bathroom. I feel less in pain I still take pain pills just in care ya know because you never know when the pain is about to hit. But right now my health isn't having me overthink rn it's people. My friends, my parents, and my boyfriend. I just feel like right now I feel like I have to beg people just to play with me. I understand we are getting older and everyone is getting busy but I'm always trying to text everyone in my opinion I have to text everyone first and keep up with them instead of them thinking of me. Maybe I'm thinking of the situation wrong but that's how it feels with Jay, Coach Hottie(Darnell), Pup, Trin....etc. My parents right now just bug me every time they get which I get they are parents. The main thing on my mind rn is my boyfriend. So I have started to develop feelings for Coach Hottie he is a man that is always working on himself. He seems healed at the moment from a distance I wanna date him he is so much better than my man. I am currently dating Jaylen for almost 5 years I forced him to buy me a promise ring then I moved in with him and its been hell since. Shit it's been so bad I gave him back the promise ring. I now look back Jaylen never wanted more for us I always did and I have to understand that. But I could be going through a stage where I just hate my boyfriend but ever since made the move to move in together it wasn't that bad at first but then I realized he's a fucking slob. I always have to remind him to pick up his clothes, he never puts anything fucking back I just hate how he fucking lives. Then he doesn't hang out with me really he just thinks us playing video games is just enough well it FUCKING ISNT. I over communicate I'm the one who always does the talking and he keeps telling me all I do is complain. I want to stop.... I just know if I do I have to break up with him. I hate the way we live. Living in a dirty apartment literally messes with my mental. I feel depressed everytime I see nothing is put where it belongs. I can't handle it my chest feels tight everytime I breathe. Especially since I'm able to write this. I want someone with emotional Intelligence like Coach Hottie. He makes me think and want to do better just to be with him. I don't think he wants to be with me though. I keep trying to text him which I mean he always texts me back but he never text first. Am I chasing a dream of us being together. Maybe I'm making him seem like the greater option which right now as I know he is. His body is also very sexy I want to make a move on him but I feel like its weird and I don't wanna ruin it. Crazy part is none of my crazy toxic tactics will work he is a man that has no time for the foolishness of a 25 year old. Btw he's in his 30's but that's better than a fucking man OLDER THAN ME that still hasnt grown up and doesn't know what he wants. I know job wise I'm stuck on what I want to do but atleast I am making healthier choices. I am tired of waiting for him to change I want him to be like Coach Hottie but if he changes will it be too late. I have felt like we've been broken up like 5 to 6 months ago. I keep trying to let him love me and try to love me back but my body keeps reacting. It doesn't want him to hug me or touch me damn I don't even wanna l fuck him. I only fucked him last time on my period and I bet he was surprised because I never let him fuck. I try the hands off way but that doesn't work. I tried being nice, babying him and that shit doesn't work. He is a bum ass nigga that never wants to change and I have to face that. Til next tomorrow!

[wetbloodworm]

TRverse clinging onto a scrap of my attention, holding on by a fucking thread. fighting for its life.

roommates/suitemates!! talking about combos i find interesting

magali and hazel in one room, dani and corliss in the other. getting to be in the other half of the suite from magali is the only kindness i'll give corliss. still gonna get pestered to hell. everyone else gets along just fine.

eva and nicole, delja and skye. idk if i'vd had eva and nicole interact before but i think they'd get along! nicole would respect that eva isn't super social but they'd find a nice balance. meanwhile nicole the psych major would be vibrating trying to Be Appropriate with two hot messes living in the other room. can't not psychoanalyze them a LITTLE, just. keeps it to herself. meanwhile i dropped skye on delja because it's funny to me to associate her with another character who's a serial killer in the original canon. skye's toned down in College Edition but she's still a mess, and a bit intense, and oh suddenly i want them to kiss actually. delja how does this keep happening to you. also jay has his best friend/ex in one room and his next romantic interest in the other. that could actually be how he and nicole meet. i also vaguely remember him and eva interacting in the og canon? they got along, though jay was also using her to get at magali in that version so like. not a GREAT friend. maybe things will be better here, as much as they can be with jay

jay and dmitry, sebastien and oscar. i've made jay and dmitry friends in crossovers before, and also occasionally they smooch. i HAD to make them roomies. i can see them being FWBs for a bit until jay gets Eyes about nicole and dmitry gets Eyes about blaze, keep being friends after. jay and sebastien went to the same high school and MIGHT'VE known each other? my instinct is they were both at least semi-popular, might've had overlap in the same social groups. oh im figuring stuff out here actually that'll be a separate post. trverse interest still kickin. anyway i still have no clue who oscar is so we'll see what's going on there later

gabe and damon, jordan and owen. gabe and xander date eventually and damon and jordan date eventually so it's funny to me to have them swapped like this. literally the only reason they're set up this way.

michael and theo, malachi and zach. most of the attending former MMCverse cast stuffed into this suite. michael tormented theo some in MMC so elements of that will probably carry over. sorry theo. malachi and zach date eventually. both of them will probably get along with theo while side-eyeing michael. additionally theo gets absorbed into that friend group more when he starts ?dating? anah, since it and malachi are besties. oh they could meet via malachi bringing him along to a friend hangout sesh, like hey you wanna get away from your roomie a bit and chill with my friends instead?

wait i just realized juliette isn't assigned yet. the fuck. juli get in there you can room with panya

still need three more people for the girl's dorms. tempted to bring lily from MMCverse over but would she really come over with raphael. maybe she doesn't know he and michael get into the same school as her. she's theoretically friends with raphael, they're at least exes and bandmates, but i think she was probably looking forward to getting some space.

(lily was previously named jadon - like as of five minutes ago) but looking it up now that's typically a boy's name? not that i'm generally concerned about that, it's just she's trans and i think she'd name herself differently. looked up common transfem names because i thought it'd be cute to pick one for her, found both lily and lilith, and if i make her full name lilith i can keep up the biblical name trend for the former MMC crew lmao.)

okay lily and anah are now rooming together. more MMC matchups. also raphael hates anah in og canon, give them ways to interact and clash here. and i think anah could be good for lily. i like them becoming friends a lot actually!

PE AU: Scene 18-19

Scene 18:

Background stuff in this scene is all the same.

Audrey: “Do you think they actually paid for those?” She eyes the girls thanking Mal for their new hair. “She did it to Jane’s hair too, and Fairy Godmother’s not happy about it.”

Ben: “What’s the harm?” He thinks it’s good that Mal’s learning to give back.

Audrey: “It’s gateway magic! Sure, it starts with the hair. Next thing you know, it’s the lips and the legs and the clothes–” He starts to see her point about how it could be a problem, and looks to Mal as he chews on his lip in concern– “and then everybody looks good and then… where will I be?” He looks back at Audrey, all his prior concern shifting to her.

He stares at her with furrowed brows until he lets out a sigh and seems to steel himself for an important confession, his expression turning into disappointment, as if he can’t tolerate her anymore.

Ben: “Listen… Audrey—”

Her expression shifts with fear and anger before settling back on her cutesy look.

Audrey: “I will see you at the game after my dress-fitting for the coronation, okay?”

He’d really rather talk, but– as they are in a public area– he relents.

Ben: “… Okay.”

Audrey: “Bye, Bennyboo.”

Ben: “Bye.” He doesn’t smile or wave or even look at her.

With Audrey gone, Mal and Evie make their move.

Mal: “Hey, Bennyboo!” She teases him as she pops up from behind.

He jumps, but manages a polite smile when he realizes it’s her. “Hey.”

Mal pulls Evie forward with the bag of cookies.

Mal: “Evie just made a batch of cookies. Double chocolate chip. Do you want one?”

She elbows her, and Evie holds the bag out with a shy, but eager smile.

He kind of winces, clearly feeling bad.

Ben: “Oh… I– Uh… I’ve got a big game.” He almost leaves it at that, but then realizes that doesn’t explain anything to them. “I don’t eat before a big game. But thank you so, so much. Thank you. Next time? Or I could eat one if there’s any left later?”

Evie lets the bag drop to her chest, unable to hide her disappointment. Mal uses Evie’s pitifulness to her advantage.

Mal: “It’s okay. We completely understand. ‘Be careful of treats offered by kids of villains.’”

His eyes go wide, guilt overtaking his expression.

Ben: “No, no, no—”

Mal: “I’m sure every kid in Auradon knows that.”

Ben: “No, that’s not it. I really do want one. I just—”

Mal: “I get it. You’re cautious. That’s smart. Oh, well… More for me, I guess…”

She starts to lead Evie away, making Evie look from her with shock and back to Ben pleadingly.

Ben: “Wait!”

They stop and wait to let him continue.

Ben: “One bite wouldn’t hurt. Right?”

Evie beams and holds out the cookie and Mal slips behind him as he takes a bite. She waits for him to chew a bit.

Evie: “How are they?” She presses to get his attention on her.

Ben: “They’re good– They’re great! They’re amazing! They’re, uh… I mean, they’re chewy and… and you know, they…” He blinks, looking back at the cookie, trying to refocus his mind. “Is that walnuts? I love walnuts.” He looks back at her and forgets the topic all over again. “I mean, uh, you know, the… The chocolate… The… the chocolate… The chocolate chips are…” He gets lost in her eyes for a moment, but tries to shake it off. “I’m sorry. Um… Uh, they’re… They’re warm and soft. And they’re sweet…” He finally caves, unable to care about whatever he was talking about anymore. “Evie, have you always had those little golden flecks in your eyes?”

Evie practically glows at the compliment.

Jay approaches, throwing an arm around his shoulders.

Jay: “How you feeling, bro?”

Ben: “I feel… I feel… I feel like…” Finally, his mind settles into place and a goofy grin spreads across his face. “Like singing your name! Evie~! Evie—!”

Mal clamps a hand over his mouth.

Evie’s heart is over the moon.

[I figured here would be a good enough place to mention my headcanons for the VK’s manipulation skills (as it pertains to this AU):

Obviously, Mal is the master manipulator of the group (unless she accidentally gets emotionally involved), as she’s canonically meant to be.

Jay’s skills are in being unnoticed. He can handle deception he’s prepared for (like lying about what he hasn’t stolen), but, otherwise, he’s usually too brash.

Cruella didn’t want Carlos to know how to manipulate because then he could use it on her. He’s smart enough to have picked up some stuff, but mostly to know when Jay’s messing with him. (He’s the good boy of the group; he wouldn’t use that knowledge.)

The Evil Queen taught Evie “male manipulation”, but she didn’t take to the meaner stuff as it clashed with the “do what they want” part (and she doesn’t like the way it makes her feel), so she tends to trip on her words. It usually comes off as “cute,” so they don’t get mad, but it added to her lack of confidence in everything outside of her looks.]

Scene 19:

After the winning tourney game, Ben has an announcement.

Ben: “Excuse me. Excuse me, can I have your attention, please? There’s something I’d like to say…” It’s quite awkward until he yells, “Give me an ‘E’!”

Crowd: “‘E’!”

Ben: “Give me a ‘V’!”

Crowd: “‘V’!”

Ben: “Give me an ‘I’!”

Crowd: “‘I’!”

Ben: “Give me another ‘E’!”

Crowd: “‘E’!”

Ben: “What does that spell?”

Crowd: “Evie–?” the crowd breaks off in confusion.

Ben: “Come on! I can’t hear you!”

They decide to humor their soon-to-be king.

Crowd: “Evie!”

Ben: “I love you, Evie! Did I mention that?”

Audrey: “Huh…?” She runs off the field in embarrassment as she realizes this is really happening and he isn’t just messing with Evie.

Ben: “Give me a beat! Whoo!”

Doug is just glad this means she’s not falling for freaking Chad, so he’s honestly a bit giddy himself when leading the band.

Doug: “Uno, dos, tres, quatro!”

Evie: “Oh my—!” She breaks out in laughter, flattered, but also quite embarrassed and overwhelmed. “Cookie!”

Mal: “What was in that cookie?” She’s kind of genuinely concerned, but seeing Evie having fun makes her smile anyway.

He sings the most R-I-D-I-C-U-L-O-U-S song any of them had ever heard. (During which, he throws his gross, sweaty jersey at Evie, but at least she’s excited by it. (← Mal’s feelings.))

He makes his way up the bleachers to Evie and tries to kiss her, but Mal pushes him back. She does let Evie through to tightly hug him though.

Ben: “I love you, Evie! Did I mention that?”

Audrey drags Chad up to where they are and snatches the microphone to make her own announcement.

Audrey: “Chad’s my boyfriend now!” The crowd goes silent; this is just embarrassing. “And I’m going to the coronation with him. So I don’t need your pity date.”

She kisses Chad, at which point Ben takes the microphone back.

Ben: “Evie! Will you go to the coronation with me?”

She excitedly grabs the microphone to cheer her response.

Evie: “Yes!”

Ben: “She said yes!” He announces to the crowd (who cheers to fill the silence), then hugs her again.

Jay: “Let’s go, Ben!” Jay runs up the bleachers next. “The whole team’s waiting for you!”

Ben: “Yeah.” He gives Evie one last blazing smile before following him.

Evie: “Bye!” She waves after him, and Ben waves back as he heads back to the field to celebrate.

Announcer: “What a victory. What a day for the Auradon Knights. Finally winning back the trophy after so many years.”

Mal is focused on Audrey fuming as she drags Chad off the field.

Mal: “I feel really sorry for Audrey.” She hears herself say before she really had time to think about it.

Evie: “You do?” She’s surprised.

Mal: “Yeah…” She watches Audrey until she’s out of sight, then immediately faces Evie, a genuineness Evie had never seen before blazing in her eyes. It’s… hopeful… in an almost desperate way. “I feel like, if she were talented like you, and she knew how to sew and knew beauty tips, that she wouldn’t need a prince to make her feel better about herself.”

Evie stares at her with wide eyes, seeming to understand her point, but then chooses to just focus on the compliment instead and switches to a bright smile.

Evie: “I guess I am kind of talented.”

Mal: “You are definitely gifted.” She insists further.

The smile leaves her eyes a bit, but it’s also softer and more genuine.

Evie: “Thanks, M.”

[The crowd should’ve been way more confused and surprised by Ben suddenly declaring his love for another girl. But, if I had to argue in their defense: they didn’t like Audrey, Mal was giving everyone cool hair, you could claim they noticed Ben going out of his way to talk to her a lot, and it’s not like they were going to oppose their soon-to-be king (to his face, publicly, at that moment). So, in the case of Evie, it’s for the first and last reason that they went along with it.

Mal seems like the kind of character who wouldn’t trust love spells/potions.

If they thought about it, I suspect the writers’ excuse for why Evie didn’t romance Ben (other than “it’s supposed to be Mal”) is because she was (hoping to be) dating Chad. But, aside from them not being together, she was raised by a villain and is literally chasing after men in power; I don’t believe she has any qualms with “moving onto better prospects.” But them “dating” does add an interesting perspective to Chad’s spite in the next scene…]

[seattlesolace]

shopping with enhypen

Heeseung

Takes him ages to get ready, just like how it took you ages to convince him to come shop with you.

When you’ve arrived at your destination, he almost whines from not wanting to go in with you.

Ends up going in anyway because you demanded.

Surprisingly responsive when it comes to asking for his opinion.

Then you take too long to browse and he excuses himself to go to the restrooms.

Never comes back.

When you’re done, you spot him waiting for you with a sheepish smile on his face.

Promises to treat you dessert for lowkey abandoning you while shopping.

Jay

Is delighted that you finally asked him to tag along shopping for clothes.

On the way, he asks you if you’re getting a whole outfit or just buying capsule pieces.

Insists that you try on certain pieces instead of eyeballing it and assuming they would fit.

Gasses you up whenever you walk out the fitting room.

When you take too long, he waits patiently by your side, sometimes scrolling his phone.

Sometimes window-shops clothes for himself too.

When you’re about to pay, he walks to the register with you and beats you when it comes to handing over a card to pay for it.

The shopping bag never lands on your hands either, since he’d be the one carrying it around voluntarily.

Sunghoon

Sulks in the beginning but goes anyway, even dressed up neat for the outing.

Lets you drag him everywhere, even to the undergarments section.

Whenever you hold a dress up or any other type of clothing, he approves, but then comes up with a better option.

Almost all the time, until it makes you question your own sense.

Asks you if you could take him shopping after you’re done, since he suddenly wanted to get new items too.

Pays for the items he picked for you, claiming that you deserve them.

Meets a mannequin that is dressed exactly like him and pouts when you tease him for it.

Splits carrying the shopping bag with you, so he can hold some bags in one hand while the other is holding yours.

Jake

Is somehow more excited than you because you’ve never taken him shopping with you before.

Walks by your side all the time while his eyes scan the whole place.

Asks a bunch of questions, from dumb questions to even dumber questions (like, if Velcro was invented first, do you think there’d be zippers?)

A whole hype man from the way he reacts to every clothing item you present to him.

Sometimes reacts too loud, it’s embarrassing for you.

Waits patiently while you pay at the register.

Instantly takes your hand in his when you’re done.

Drags you to a café to chill and have cake because he’s hungry after all the shopping.

Sunoo

He’s the one who actually proposed the idea of shopping together.

You two would go to every store and really browse the stuff that you like.

You lose him in the men’s section because he is in the women’s section looking for you.

Uncontrollable laughter once you both find each other.

Says yes to everything you choose and compliments you when you try it on.

When you’re done shopping for your stuff, he loses interest in shopping for himself, so you both go to the arcades instead.

You keep leaving your shopping bags unattended, so he keeps picking them up for you.

Promises to always go shopping together next time whenever he is free.

Jungwon

Agrees to go shopping with you immediately after you ask.

But then on your way there, he realizes he actually has an errand to do.

Promises to find you in whichever store you are in once he is done.

Spots you browsing for clothes but seemingly so focused, he just doesn’t want to disturb you.

You send him mirror selfies from the fitting room to ask for his opinion, and he’s right outside the store replying to all of your texts.

Actually gives honest opinions and replies like a bot—instant.

When you’re done, you walk out of the store only to find him holding up two cups of latte, smiling as he asks “had fun shopping?”

Walks back home with you, linking arms, sipping on your lattes.

Ni-ki

Hesitates at first but then realizes it’s the only way to spend time with you for that day.

Acts disinterested as you browse for clothes but secretly wonders how you will look like in them.

Whenever you ask for an opinion, he treats it like a yes-no question and either nods or shakes his head.

To make him more enthusiastic, you introduce the idea of shopping for him.

His face lights up and tries to politely reject it, even though he has been eyeing a jacket the whole time.

You notice it so when you pick up the jacket he just sighs in adoration.

Defends himself and swears that he did not go with you just to get treated.

You’re fine with it but demand him to pay for dinner, which he happily agrees to.
