what sonic game should i play first, and which ones should i avoid, if there are any
hmm... depends on what you want!
If you want a more 2d platforming experience, Sonic 1, 2, or CD are my go-to recs! just stick to the IOS/sonic origins versions that support widescreen! Sonic 3 & Knuckles/Sonic 3 A.I.R. can also be good, but you should play through at least 1 or 2 to really appreciate just how much went into it comparatively!
if you want 3d platforming with focused and refined gameplay, i'd recommend sonic adventure 2! if you want 3d platforming that's less polished, with a splash of a bunch of different gameplay experiences, sonic adventure 1 is super diverse thanks to its hub worlds and how differently every character plays (big is a charming change of pace for example, ignore the idiots that call all sonic fans furries and say Big sucks)! (i'd also recommend emulating Sonic Adventure 1 on dreamcast over playing the DX port on steam/gamecube, but the PC/steam SA2/SA2B Port is fine!)
If you want "Boost" gameplay, which is essentially a 3d platformer if it was more like a racing sim (think Forza or Need for Speed), I'd recommend Generations or Colors! There's drifting, and generally the stages are more like giant race courses with simple obstacles that rely more purely on reflexes than controlling the character in a space!
Lastly, if you wanna try some open world stuff, apparently Frontiers is considered pretty good! It still mostly plays like a "Boost" game but considering the reception of most sonic games since 06, the fact that I've never really heard bad things about it since its release is nothing to sneeze at!
Avoid Sonic the Hedgehog (2006) (unfinished, and the gameplay between the 3 characters is boring and stuck between platforming and the future "Boost" gameplay), Sonic Unleashed (has good Boost gameplay but you have to deal with the Werehog Beat Em Up stages which are Not Worth It), and Shadow the Hedgehog (not as tightly designed as SA1/SA2/Heroes, a lot more Grungy which may or may not interest you)! I will say though, if you get into the Sonic series, you can enjoy pretty much any game released outside of purely unfinished or poorly made ones like 06 and Sonic Boom! The core focus of "Platforming but Fast" is pretty consistent!
Ooh and highlights for spin-off games for me are Sonic Riders (absurdly good mascot racer/snowboard hybrid game and a sort of precursor to Sega All Stars Racing) and Sonic the Fighters (really fun and simple 2d fighter that can be bought and played on the Xbox Live Arcade), and Sonic Robo Blast 2/Sonic Robo Blast 2 Kart (SRB2 is a fanmade 3d platformer that's been actively worked on for 20+ years, and SRB2Kart is a fanmade mod of that platformer that's super popular for being a rly good mascot racer!)
I'll also pass it on to followers if they have personal reasons for recommending some games!

Snowboard Kids 2
Tumblr media
JP release: 19th February 1999
NA release: 1st March
PAL release: 30th April 1999 (AUS only)
Developer: Racdym
Publisher: Atlus
N64 Magazine Score: 86%
Tumblr media
Some sequels try to reinvent the wheel, others try to make improvements on the original while some, like Snowboard Kids 2, just provide more of the same. The first Snowboard Kids was a pretty good game, and so is Snowboard Kids 2. You snowboard through some nice looking levels, using ski lifts to finish a “lap” and use items to hit other racers.
Tumblr media
The story mode feels very much expanded upon, with a little town you can walk around acting as a menu and cutscenes before and after with some silly but fun little animations. In terms of what you actually play, it doesn’t actually change much, so it’s a nice example of how a bit of nice presentation can make something feel much more like a fulfilling experience.
Tumblr media
One of the biggest issues in Snowboard Kids 2 is the track design. The themes are great, and includes space and underwater levels. The problem is the tracks are much flatter, which makes the game extremely slow. The speed issue was present in the first game, but this highlights it even more. Considering the absurdity of the game, the snowboards accelerating on flatter surfaces really shouldn’t be a problem.
Tumblr media
There are a few nice minigames, such as a speed challenge using items and a trick mode. The most interesting was a Paperboy mission where you have to deliver newspapers to houses. Snowboard Kids 2 is in a nicer package than the first, but the lack of speed can just be frustrating.
Snowboard Kids 2 is criminally slow. Yes, we know that speed on your snowboard is dependent on the steepness of the hill. Yes, we know that if you fall or collide with something, you can only accelerate off as gravity allows. WE KNOW THESE TGINS! But in a game where reality gets cast aside with wilful abandon at every opportunity, in the name of things good in gaming, why pick this one law of physics to stick to? In places – particularly after a fall on a flat section – Snowboard Kids 2 is so arse-bendingly slow. It really and truly, purely and simply, utterly and completely MAKES YOU WANT TO SCREAM.
- James Ashton, N64 Magazine #28
Remake or Remaster?
A remake with all the courses with a bit more speed would be great.
Official Ways to get the game

I also played Nickelodeon Kart Racers 3: Slime Speedway... despite some potential bad news about Nickelodeon All Star Brawl 2, I am on a Nick kick, and wanted some games to play, and it was on sale.
Tumblr media
I don't know if I feel regret or not yet... Mechanics take getting used to, but they're solid. Some casual Kart racers don't copy Mario Kart enough, I find. Well this one feels like Mario Kart 8.
The problem is...
1. some of the character models have very bad looking animations and facial expressions, which is so weird because I'm pretty sure this was released after Nick All Star Brawl 1, which did a very good job with the character faces, and both are handled by Game Mill....
2. The voice clips are a little annoying. Often times they're quoting lines from the show, but they don't make sense in the context, and the line read is just not as good in the show, I am pretty sure Arnold says lines that were originally from other characters even.
and 3... FUCKING FRAME RATE... I don't typically fuss about frame rates, 30fps is perfectly fine with me. I play retro games, I think absurdly high framerates actually look weird and unnatural in video games... But this game is like... 20 FPS or something. It's like Ocarina of Time framerates... which is fine for a 1998 action adventure game, but in 2022... it really isn't acceptable for a high speed racing game. I can't even imagine this being the Switch's fault, this game isn't exactly pushing boundaries...
I like pretty much everything else about the game though. It's a lot of Nick Fan Service, the tracks are neat, it has mechanics that remind me of Sonic Riders and Snowboard Kids, some other favorite games of mine, it copies just enough of Mario Kart while having it's own ideas, and there's lots of courses and unlockables, if it just ran a little better....

Steam Next Fest, winter 2023. New year, new games to try. Some hits and misses this time around. First impressions under the cut.
(Part 2)
Mineko's Night Market – I've been curious about this one for a while, mostly for the setting and artstyle. Visually it looks quite lovely, but gameplay-wise I ran into some issues. The controls were a bit awkward, and I couldn't connect my controller or remap any of the keyboard inputs to deal with it. The demo is kinda short, and showed off parts of the game I wasn't as interested in (a brief walk around the main town to talk to a few NPCs and gather a few resources, and a stealth mission that wasn't particularly compelling). There's probably a lot more to explore here, but the demo didn't really explore any of it. I'll need to see more before I pass judgement on this game.
Pocket Planet – It always comes back to hexagons, doesn't it? Gotta love hexagon tiles. I expected a Dorfromantik-like (seriously there's like two of them every event — the more the merrier, I guess?) but really it's just a straightforward puzzle game. Place tiles, fill out a set area, create certain tile formations (forests, mountains, islands, etc.) to solve puzzles. It's as much Terrace as it is Dorfromantik, and I have to admire a kindred spirit.
Pan'orama – This one, on the other hand, is closer to what I expected. As far as games of this sort go, it adds one interesting element (planning out specific tile combinations to create unique structures with different effects), but I'm not sure how much variety that adds to repeat playthroughs, and the game lacks other elements and some visual clarity in the process. Seems alright, but I've seen better.
URBO – Now here's one that's very much up my alley. URBO has a minimalist style similar to builder puzzle games like ISLANDERS, but gameplay-wise it's closer to a merge puzzle game like Threes or 2048: place buildings on the grid, three of the same type adjacent to each other combine into bigger buildings, go until you run out of space to build. A simple idea, with the potential to be very addicting. Looking forward to this one for sure.
Slopecrashers – An arcade racer. This one didn't leave a great impression, unfortunately. Maybe I'm just not that familiar with snowboarding games, but the controls never clicked with me and none of the objectives felt manageable. And something about the style (characters, environments, UI, audio, etc.) felt... generic, I suppose? I don't think I'll be coming back to this one.
Mail Time – A cute 3D platformer. Simple, but charming. The movement seems fine even if the controls aren't as tight as others I've played, and the area shown off in the demo puts a nice variety into a small space. Most of the game's appeal is in its visual style and characters, which are pretty solid, and the main character in particular offers a surprising amount of customization. It's nice, and that's all it really needs to be.

some video games i grew up with and love:
Rage Racer (PS1) - simple racing game, best OST
Azure Dreams (PS1) - pokemon dungeon crawler with dating and town building side quests. collect monsters, climb to the top of the tower to find out what happened to your father.
Alundra (PS1) - adventure fantasy rpg puzzle game. you Will need the guide book. beautiful art. interesting story. you enter people's dreams to save them from certain death while also trying to fight evil in the real world.
Brave Fencer Musashi (PS1) - silly action adventure fantasy, save the world from evil with two swords as legendary hero Musashi
SaGa Frontier (PS1) - Turn based JRPG, a bit clunky but fun. You choose one of 7 origin heroes, play their personal stories, and meet many other companions to defeat evil together. Only SaGa series game I've played.
Secrets of Evermore (SNES) - your dog runs into a laboratory, now you have to travel across time to get home and face monsters. The dog changes breeds and has special powers each level.
DISNEY. Lion King, Timon & Pumbsa, Toy Story (SNES) Aladdin, The Little Mermaid (SegaGEN) All disgustingly hard for Capitalism(tm) reasons but still very fun.
Heroes Chronicles series (PC) - fantasy strategy game series. Chess with monsters? Interesting but super simple story. One of my favorite games to zone out with.
Might and Magic VI: The Mandate of Heaven (PC) - Fantasy party dungeon crawling RPG, one of my favorites.
Myst (PC) - Puzzle game of the ages.
Syberia I & II (PC) - A good puzzle narrative game, well acclaimed.
Return to Mysterious Island (PC) - Another first person puzzle game. If u cant tell I really loved these. Good game, good anrrative, very short and not as difficult as previous.
Darkfall: The Journal (PC) - scared me as a kid. First person puzzle game with ghosts. Think of a gentler Myst or Riven.
Micro Machines (SegaGen) - Silly racing games. Multiplayer
California Games (SegaGen) - More silly sports games
Ballz (SegaGen) - A super silly fighting game. Everyone is made of little balls. Think of. Round minecraft.

Barbie: Super Sports (PS1) - Barbie skating, snowboarding, etc <3
Digimon World 3 (PS1) - Turn based adventure fantasy, love the card minigame
Digimon Rumble Arena (PS1) - Simple fighting game
Star Ocean: Till the End of Time (PS2) - Scifi/fantasy JRPG, interesting fighting system and lore. I otherwise have never played the other Star Ocean games.
Red Ninja (PS2) - Fun stealth game. Pro And Con: Main Character big titty ninja girl you can easily panty shot.
Yu-Gi-Oh: Duelist of the Roses (PS2) - I wish this version of YuGiOh existed IRL, I fucking love this system. I want to print out all the cards and a mat to play.
The Last Remnant (XBox 360) - A square JRPG. I'll be honest there are so many better games both play and lore, but the unique battle system stole my heart.
Additional games I love but I think are more well known:
Zoo Tycoon
Age of Empires / Age of Mythology
Kirby 64
Sonic, Sonic 2
Starcraft
Warcraft 3 (favorite warcraft game, 10/10 recommend)
Diablo 2
Jak & Daxter (Jak II, Jak III)
Spyro Trilogy
Kingdom Hearts (the first one mostly)
Mortal Kombat 3
Mortal Kombat: Armageddon
Castlevania: Symphony of the Night
Castlevania: Lament of Innocence
Dragon Age series
I have every Final Fantasy up to XIII, but my favorites are V, VIII, IX, and X-2 in that order.
I also have every Silent Hill up to Downpour. My favorites are 1, 2, and 4.
Lore: I played Silent Hill when I was 6 or 7 years old and liked it even though I was bad at it. I played Tomb Raider when I was the same age and was too scared of the bear to ever get past the first 10 minutes.

[ad_1] YANQING, China — The chatter concerning the wind began on Thursday, once Matthias Mayer of Austria finished the primary coaching run down the slope nicknamed “Rock.”By means of Sunday, when the wind pressured a one-day postponement of the men’s downhill, there was once just one matter of dialogue: It is vitally, very windy at the Olympic slopes.“It's all the time going to be windy,” stated Bryce Bennett of america, who would had been the primary racer down the mountain within the males’s downhill on Sunday. “It’s simply how this position is.”The winds had been reasonably constant on the Yanqing Nationwide Alpine Snowboarding Heart, with gusts of 15 miles consistent with hour and up, particularly in the midst of the downhill run. However 4 days after competition first put skis to snow at the Olympic route, the wind has already knocked out two reliable days of festival: Saturday’s ultimate coaching consultation after which, on Sunday, the downhill, Alpine snowboarding’s show off tournament. The race is now scheduled to happen on Monday, between runs of the ladies’s large slalom.Possibly.It's unclear that the winds will subside on Monday, in keeping with forecasts, all the way through what's historically a season when the area that comes with Beijing is at risk of windstorms.Wind could be a unhealthy downside in Alpine snowboarding, inflicting racers to crash as they fly over jumps and knocking skiers off their strains — and out of competition — in the event that they get hit with even a minor gust in the midst of their run. It could additionally wreak havoc with schedules, and has led some skiers to query if a correct race can ever be held right here.Bennett stated he nonetheless was hoping the downhill might be run “as honest as imaginable.” But when no longer, he stated with resignation, “then it's what it's.”Race organizers on Sunday introduced 3 one-hour delays as they waited and was hoping for the wind to subside on an afternoon that was once rather calm and temperate at each ends of the route however blustery on an extended, uncovered heart stretch. The ski officers ultimately gave up, known as off the race and introduced that they'd check out once more on Monday afternoon.Beijing Olympic organizers didn't in an instant reply to a request for remark concerning the stipulations.Discover the Video gamesThe postponement arrange a star-studded day of snowboarding — presuming the wind does no longer save you it from going down — that may see the lads’s downhill runs slip in between the primary and 2nd heats of the ladies’s large slalom. That race serves because the Beijing Olympics debut for the American megastar Mikaela Shiffrin.To house the alternate, the primary run of the enormous slalom was once moved as much as 9:30 a.m. from 10:15. The lads’s downhill will then happen at midday, adopted via the overall run of the ladies’s large slalom at 2:30 p.m. The occasions happen on other classes, however their collision required some negotiations amongst organizers and Olympic tv.What no person can say needless to say is whether or not the wind will subside sufficient to permit Yanqing to be appropriate for Olympic racing, or if it's going to flip the competitions into contests of good fortune by which get started occasions and wind gusts supersede ability in figuring out the winner.On Thursday, the primary day skiers attempted the downhill, they stated the mountain was once simply as windy as their scouting stories had prompt it will be. On Friday, a frigid and gusty day when coaching was once just about known as off, everybody agreed with the evaluation of Dominik Paris of Italy, a veteran racer and global champion in super-G.“If the race have been held nowadays,” he stated, “it do not have been honest.”On Saturday and Sunday, the wind was once deemed too unhealthy for racing, at the same time as temperatures had risen into the mid-30s via Sunday, and solar splashed the mountain.It's not unusual for climate to reason postponements and delays at Olympic Alpine competitions.
Rain led to delays on the 2010 Video games in Vancouver, and prime winds did the similar in Pyeongchang in 2018.A bigger factor with the venue at Yanqing is that the highest skiers have by no means raced at the route. With out take a look at occasions or good enough coaching, the downhill run — and the opposite classes — remained one thing of a thriller to the arena’s most sensible skiers. Many are nonetheless not sure what it's going to really feel love to assault the route at speeds drawing near 90 miles consistent with hour.Bernhard Russi, a famed route clothier and the 1972 Olympic downhill champion, designed the route at Yanqing, however simplest after Chinese language officers had decided on the mountain as the positioning for the Alpine occasions.The higher a part of the mountain the place the racing is going down is in large part an uncovered rock face in a spread of mountains that rises from a undeniable at the northwest fringe of Beijing. Consistent with skiers and coaches, the winds are provide all over at the mountain, however they grow to be in particular difficult across the so-called Sugar Soar this is about midway down the two-mile route.Even Shiffrin, who has skied on simplest the educational slopes up to now however might compete in 5 occasions, has chimed in at the wind, which she stated was once more likely to play a big function in figuring out the winners and losers — or in all probability worse.“Preferably, no one goes to stand probably the most in point of fact giant gusts the place you get just about blown off the mountain,” she stated on Friday. “You have got the constant winds after which the minor gust, and each and every so frequently you get a twister gust you get misplaced in.”The worst is also but to return.Beijing has infrequent snow in wintry weather, which is the dry season; but it surely nonetheless has storms, which frequently display up as robust, dry, freezing winds. The town’s climate forecasts every wintry weather revolve round when the following robust winds might arrive.Ji Chongping, the executive meteorologist of Beijing, warned at a news conference on Saturday that the town — which incorporates Yanqing on its northwestern outskirts — may be expecting reasonably robust winds on Monday and subsequent Sunday, in addition to on Feb. 18.Keith Bradsher contributed reporting.

Burnout 3 takedown black box games
Tumblr media
#BURNOUT 3 TAKEDOWN BLACK BOX GAMES SOFTWARE#
#BURNOUT 3 TAKEDOWN BLACK BOX GAMES PC#
#BURNOUT 3 TAKEDOWN BLACK BOX GAMES DOWNLOAD#
Basically, SSX was the quintessential EA Sports Big game. The original SSX was arguably the best game in the PlayStation 2's launch lineup (although I do like me some Tekken Tag Tournament, and Ridge Racer V is no slouch either), and it received a number of sequels that were even better. It’s tricky to rock a rhyme, to rock a rhyme that’s right on time, it’s tricky! Image credit: MobyGames – SSX Tricky (GameCube)The EA Sports Big label would be used until 2008, and in those eight years the branding would appear on various releases such as the Street spinoffs of EA's FIFA, NFL and NBA titles, but by far the most popular and enduring EA Sports Big releases were the SSX snowboarding games. That might cut into the profits, after all. obviously with all the swear words and other objectionable content cut out so as to avoid being too extreme. Well, some middle-aged Electronic Arts executive's idea of attitude, anyway, which consisted of all sorts of EXTREME catchphrases (often from loud DJs calling the action), product placement from popular real-life brands, and a lot of early 00s rock and rap music all the kids were into at the time.
#BURNOUT 3 TAKEDOWN BLACK BOX GAMES SOFTWARE#
Motion Blur available for 3rd person camera.Back in the year 2000, everyone's favorite evil software giant EA introduced a new publishing label named EA Sports Big, intended for distributing various arcade style and extreme sports games dripping with attitude.

Also, there are probably more great fics that I’ve probably missed and this list is definitely not exhaustive. I only included ones I’ve read but if there are new sports-related fics I haven’t read yet, apologies if I fail to include your fic. My memory for some fics are also murky and I am definitely not sporty 😅 so maybe I got the wrong sport tagged (in this case, let me know). Enjoy Jock JK! 🎯

~December 5th~
Y/N hurried towards her friends who were already settled at the very top of the mountain, their snowboards and skiis all lined up in a perfect row.
"Last one down pays for dinner." One of them suggested to which they all unanimously agreed to.
"3, 2, Go!"
The racers all started sloping down the snowy mountain, some going to different directions, but ultimately they were all headed south. Y/N shifted her weight to keep balance on her snowboard. Usually she'd show off and do a trick, but right now she was focused on getting down as fast as possible.
"Pick up the pace Y/N!" Her friend teased as they swooped right past her.
Y/N let out a snort as she leaned forward to get more speed and traction. She also decided to move more to the right, where she knew a shortcut that none of the others knew about. She let out a small chuckle at the thought of their faces when they saw her all the way down there.
Her smile faded fast when she saw someone step out right in front of her, a dark haired male that seemed preoccupied with taking a picture he didn't notice she was coming.
"Look out!" She shouted, finally getting his attention.
The boy froze and seemed unable to move. Y/N swerved to the left, a little too fast and ended up falling off her board, tumbling down a few feet before landing on a bed of snow. She groomed softly as she lifted her head, already feeling the aching of her muscles.
"Are you ok?!" The same man who had inadvertently caused her accident ran over and helped her sit up.
"I...think so?" She asked rather than answered.
She quickly stood up, taking off her googles and winter hat to try and inspect what damage had been done not only to her body but to her board. She dusted some of the snow off her and looked up to find the mystery man looking at her intently.
"What? Am I bleeding?" She touched her face and forehead, not a stranger to bleeding due to some of the accidents she'd been through.
"No! Not at all!! Just......"
He smiled shyly, dimples clearly shown on his cheeks as his eyes formed small crescents.
"You're really pretty..." He confessed awkwardly, leaving her baffled and speechless.
"Th-thank you....you're pretty handsome yourself..." She tucked some hair behind her ear.
"I'm San." He introduced himself, holding out a hand for her to take, which she promptly did.
"I'm Y/N."
You were sad that you had to pay for your friend's dinner because you lost, but you weren't to sad because San asked you out for a date the next day.
ღ¸.✻´`✻.¸¸ღღ¸.✻´`✻.¸¸ღღ¸.✻´`✻.¸¸ღღ¸.✻´`✻.¸¸ღ
~January 12, One Year Later~
"Brrr. It's freezing out there."
San shook the snow off him, placing his boots on the corner.
"I told you it was going to snow, but you don't listen." She rolled her eyes at him.
Adding marshmallows to the hot chocolate, she picked them up and set them down on the table in front of the fireplace, then proceeded to wrap one of the blankets around herself. San wasted no time in cuddling up next to her and taking one of the mugs in his hand, sipping slowly so as to not burn himself. Smiling sweetly at her, he scooted closer to her, his head resting on her shoulder.
"Remember when we met last year?" He suddenly spoke.
Y/N nearly spat her chocolate back into the mug.
"Ahhh yes. You mean when I nearly killed you?"
San laughed softly at that.
"Never in my life did I think I'd actually end up dating my almost murderer."
She rolled her eyes at that.
"You were the idiot that wasn't paying attention." She reminded him.
"I was trying to take a picture of a bunny that was nearby thank you. Which you scared off by the way."
They began reminiscing about their times after a year of dating, laughing about their first fight, their first kiss and the times they met each other's respective parents.
"You looked terrified of my dad."
"How was I supposed to be calm? Especially after he said he wanted to talk to me in private?" San defended himself.
Y/N hummed softly.
"What did he talk to you about anyway?"
San shrugged softly.
"The usual...like...if I broke your heart, he was going to break my balls."
Y/N actually slapped her knee at that one, knowing fully well her father would really be the type to say such things.
San scratched the back of his head as he wondered if he should say the next part.
"He.....also asked....... if I loved you...."
Y/N felt her heart drop at that word. Even though they had been dating for a year, they had never said the L word. She wanted to change the subject, afraid of his answer, but curiosity got the better of her and she had to ask.
"What....what did you tell him?" She fidgeted with the ends of her hoodie.
San shifted so he sat in front of her. Taking her hands in his, he confessed:
"I told him I loved you with all my heart and that.....I hoped you felt the same way..."
He looked at her with hopeful eyes, gulping slightly, afraid that his feelings weren't reciprocated. When Y/N didn't respond for a minute, he let out a defeated sigh.
"All right. I understand." He made move to get up, but Y/N made him stay in place.
"No silly. I was just shocked you actually told my father that." She explained.
"Well I wasn't going to lie. I do love you Y/N, truly I do." His voice sounded desperate at this point.
Y/N teared up and pulled him into a tight embrace.
"Oh Sannie.....I love you too."
San widened his eyes at her words, he felt himself tearing up as well, but he was filled with warmth at the thought that she felt the same, it was not a one sided love. He couldn't help himself as he cupped her face and began pecking her lips repeatedly.
"I love you. I love you with all my heart."
He giggled as he intensified his kisses, turning them from small pecks into more heated and passionate lip locks that had her craving for more. San ended up pushing her onto the floor, his hands placed on either side of her face. They both looked at each other, both wanting to ask the same question but too shy to actually speak out about having their first time right then.
"Y/N.....if you don't want to, we can-"
She silenced him by pulling him on top of her and resuming their makeout session.
"I want to. Go ahead." She assured him.
San kissed her forehead.
"I love you so much."

~December 25, 3 years later~
All of the boys gathered around the tree, already ecstatic at the thought of opening their presents.
"I'm really looking forward to Yeosang's gift for me." Mingi bounced in his seat.
"I told you. I got you socks." Yeosang repeated for the thousandth time, making everybody burst out laughing.
"You know you're just joking Sangie." Wooyoung pinched his cheek, much to Yeosang's dismay.
The clock struck midnight, signaling that it was now time to open presents. There was a lot of noises, squealing and rustling of paper heard, the latter all discarded near the floor, soon picked up by Seonghwa, who hated seeing litter scattered about.
"Perfect for you Hwa. I actually got you a broom and dustpan set." Hongjoong snickered as he held out the cleaning supplies from the house to his friend.
"Shut up." Seonghwa groaned, not at all amused by the joke.
"Calm down. I actually got you something else." Hongjoong held out the actual gift, which turned out to be Toothless slippers and bathrobe set. It made Seonghwa burst out laughing, donning his infamous awkward smile.
"Yah! What is this Kang Yeosang?!" Mingi held out a box full of assorted socks.
Yeosang merely shrugged.
"What? You all laughed and joked that I wasn't serious. Jokes on you bitches. I was dead serious." Yeosang sipped his tea as he stared Mingi down, who merely pouted.
"Look on the bright side Mingi. Yunho might stop complaining about you stealing his socks." Seonghwa patted his shoulder.
"It's not me!" Mingi retorted.
"No one else's feet but yours fit in them!" Yunho accused him.
Y/N and San just laughed and decided to just enjoy the presents they got for each other. Y/N was happy that San liked his presents, but she was saving the best for last, knowing he was going to go wild about it.
Pulling him outside, she closed the door behind them both, ignoring the chaos going on inside.
"If it's another mistletoe trick, I won't mind." San was already puckering his lips.
"No silly....there's another present I wanted to give you."
"Oh?" San tilted his head.
She pulled out a small and thin white box that had a purple ribbon wrapped around it. San shook it near his ear, trying to guess what was in it, but had no clue. He carefully unwrapped the ribbon and opened the box. He had to do a double take as he peered into the contents. He looked at his lover with wide eyes.
"Is this....?" He asked for confirmation.
She nodded and chuckled happily. San's face lit up and he picked her up, spinning her around as he kissed the side of her head.
"Oh my God! This is the best Christmas present ever my love! Thank you!"
Tears of joy started streaming down his face as he embraced the love of his life for a long time. He wasted no time in speeding back inside the house and wave the object around for everyone to see.
"Guys! We're having a baby! You're all gonna be uncles!"
ღ¸.✻´`✻.¸¸ღღ¸.✻´`✻.¸¸ღღ¸.✻´`✻.¸¸ღღ¸.✻´`✻.¸¸ღ
~December 5, Present Day~
San and Y/N made sure the carrier was covered fully by the long and thick blanket. After making sure it was sunny, San opened the door and allowed his sweetheart to walk out. Y/N carefully walked down the steps of the cabin they always stayed in since the day they met. San followed after her, one step behind her, ready to help if she needed anything.
They both looked at each other and smiled. Y/N put the carrier gently down on the blanket of snow as San took out his camera.
"Ready." San gave her the ok sign.
Y/N peeled back the blanket covering the carrier, revealing their tiny 4 month old baby daughter, who was now wide awake and observing her surroundings.
"Smile snowflake." San took a picture of her.
Light snow started to fall around them and the tiny baby reached her hand out to touch this new object that was foreign to her. A tiny snowflake fell on her nose and she sneezed softly when it made contact with her skin.
Her parents couldn't help but coo at how lovely and adorable she was. Picking her up along with several blankets, Y/N showed off the view to her.
"Look darling. This is the exact spot daddy and I met years ago."
San chuckled as he kept taking photos of his two most precious treasures in his life. After getting his fill, he walked up next to Y/N, poking his daughter's cheek.
"Even though you were born in summer, I'm sure you'll learn to love the winter just as much as we do."
The baby continued to be fascinated by the falling snow around her, her arms flailing into the air, trying to catch it, only to fall in confusion every time it melted in her tiny hand.
"I say she already loves it." Y/N noticed her reactions.
"I'm glad she does. I can't wait to bring her here every year to watch the first snow fall every time." San kissed her tiny head before looking back at his wife and repeating the action on her forehead.
"I love you. And I love our precious snowflake too."

yizhan fic rec (2)
part 1
glute bridges by sunstainedsheets
[explicit, 29k, complete]
personal trainer and dancer yibo and graphic designer xiao zhan. GYM AU omg i love this. xiao zhan signs up for a gym membership and personal training sessions where he’s totally not ogling his coach. there’s also a scene with xiao zhan attempting to converse with yibo in korean that got me cackling lmao, our resident koreaboo indeed. it was also great to see mentor yibo here, it reminded me of his prod 101 days when he was so intimidating as a mentor, also... very sexy. anyway i adore this, they’re just thirsting over each other, especially yibo checking out the zhass, it’s okay bobo we’ve all been there
i’d wear gucci for you by Anonymous
[teen and up, 16k, complete]
abo au where alpha yibo and omega xiao zhan are photographed going into xiao zhan’s apartment together so they’re forced to pretend that they’re mated to prevent a scandal. this has become my favourite fics because i’m an absolute sucker for fake/pretend relationships and the way the writer incorporated canon stuff like yibo answering interview questions for xiao zhan ugh guys i love this fic. when yibo was so exasperated near the end and said “i’m wearing gucci for you” & waving his hand i really lost it. JUST READ THIS I PROMISE IT’S A GOOD READ
if you would only let you by gdgdbaby
[explicit, 32k, complete]
ah where do i even start with this one? xiao zhan gets drunk and texts yibo, yibo shows up at his house and whisks him away on a road trip. i felt so much emotions reading this fic, everything was so raw and it really deals with the pressures of being famous and homophobia. this is a super realistic fic and there’s a lot of emotional hurt/comfort, you’ll literally end up wanting to wrap these two in a big blanket and just protect them from the world (lol like we don’t already want to do that). my absolute favourite part was the confession scene, like it was so messy and funny, and it’s just so them, especially the pokemon part lmao. this art is based on that scene and it’s exactly how i imagined it 🥺 this is just so well written and it’s one of my favs!
love in the time of coding by theivoryflute
[explicit, 26k, complete]
hacker yibo and cyber security engineer xiao zhan. yibo cyber flirts with xiao zhan and also flirts with him in real life. *SCREAMS* i never thought we’d have a hacker au in the fandom but i’ve been blessed, this was literally the cutest online romance fic with a bunch of mutual pining. my favourite dialogue is “the whiplash from wanting to ride yibo to wanting to coddle him was severe” i’m literally wheezing, this is a perfect representation of the fandom, also the usernames that yibo picked got me cackling there’s one in particular that made me laugh, you’ll know what it is when you see it so go read this gem!
Peace & Love by ella_minnow
[explicit, 51k, complete]
my favourite writer is back again with this baby! idol dance captain xiao zhan and non-famous dancer yibo!!! ARE WE KIDDING? slow burn sdoc au? I’M SO IN WTF. guys listen to me. yibo has a low ponytail and arm tattoos *goes feral* one of my favourite scenes from this fic is when xiao zhan had to convince yibo to join his team (bro. he didn’t even have to try) because yibo says “no, Xiao-laoshi. I would of course never leave you.” i’m screeching, totally gave me tgcf hua cheng vibes. my absolute favourite scene, however, is when yibo says xiao zhan doesn’t have to worry about sending him home because he’s going to win everything... like... the sheer bde this man exudes in real life and fiction... very sexy of him. i also love how this showcases how well they work together and of course the *whispers* celebratory sex!
Hyacinth by stickyriceu
[explicit, 76k, complete]
racer yibo celebrates after a competition and meets hyacinth’s number one host, zhan-er. slow burn with LOTS of pining and angst. i finished this in one sitting and i’m still screaming over it, it’s so good!!! genuinely felt my soul leave my body reading this because zhan zhan with shoulder length hair? tied up in a messy bun? *SCREECHES* everyone go read and get your angst on, don’t worry, there’s a happy ending ;)
Song of the Sea by LaMachina17
[explicit, 48k, complete]
mermaid xiao zhan and pirate yibo !!! xiao zhan meets yibo and has one very exciting night with him so he ends up following him aboard their pirate ship! i’m literally on my knees praising this fic. i will re-read this until i die, it’s perfect. AND THEY’RE CAT DADS IN THIS FIC TOO. seriously i don’t need to say anything else go read this gem
The Dragons by MadFilaments
[explicit, 31k, complete]
xiao zhan is his village’s marriage offering to dragon lord yibo. are you kidding me? shapeshifter yibo? arranged marriage fic? YES. this is one of my favourites, i always re-read it because the way their relationship just naturally progresses in the story warms my heart 😩 AND they call each other husband and i just *melts* they’re ! so ! domestic ! there’s angst but it’s not too bad and i’m in love with yibo’s speech about how dragons love forever *cries*
golden hour by Deinde
[explicit, 35k, complete]
professional snowboarder yibo teaches actor xiao zhan how to snowboard in a show! OH MY GOD THIS WAS SO GOOD *SCREAMS* it’s literally just them flirting and being absolutely thirsty for each other, especially in the photoshoot scene dear lord. i’m so annoying, this fic tab has been open in my safari for forever and i forgot about it until i watched ddu’s snow sports episode so don’t do the same thing as me and go! read! this! fic! immediately!
Falling In Love by beeswaxing
[mature, 65k, complete]
celebrities yibo and xiao zhan star in a we got married/hello baby inspired reality show! oh my god. the domestic fluff in this i am reeling, THIS IS JUST ADORABLE. this is definitely the domestic kid fic i so desperately needed 😭 and the way the writer added in those canon bjyx details is just perfect, everyone go read this please!!
Legend of the Jade Rabbit: The Musical by emma_screams
[explicit, 12k, complete]
high school au with lion hybrid yibo and bunny hybrid xiao zhan. this fic has musicals! it’s really quite fluffy, yibo literally calls zhan zhan “bunny gege” and i’m just *SCREECHING* also i love protective yibo 😭 i really love this it’s so cute & has a very refreshing plot!
pick me, pick me up by domeeneec
[mature, 10k, complete]
college/uni wrong number au where xiao zhan keeps accidentally calling yibo to bail him out of his bad dates and yibo ends up becoming his “personal dating assistant” this was the FLUFFIEST. although there is some light angst when xiao zhan drunk dials yibo and cries about not being able to find love, but i swear this is super soft and fluffy!!! READ THIS FOR SEROTONIN
Ruby and Gold by aces_low
[explicit, 16k, complete]
mob boss xiao zhan and his trophy husband yibo. HELLO? MURD3R HUSBANDS YIZHAN? this was such a fun read! trigger warnings for blood and violence though so look out for those! yizhan will literally not hesitate to beat you tf up in this fic they’re so badass here but they’re so soft with each other. xiao zhan literally calls yibo gǒu zǎizǎi and tiánxīn i am. Melting. also there’s a proposal. it’s unromantic but still so romantic, i love it. i also saw this art and i think this would be how they look in the fic
To Be Human by purplemonster
[teen and up, 19k, complete]
humanoid yibo and ceo xiao zhan. xiao zhan tests out his company’s newest creation and falls in love along the way. android aus always hurt me so. good. and this one’s not an exception. it’s pretty slow burn and definitely angst-y but it has a happy ending! i love the domesticity, i have no idea why i love grocery scenes so much? but anyway this is perfect for a rainy day and you’ll coo at the ending
Falling by brooklinegirl
[explicit, 42k, complete]
yb and xz behind the scenes while filming. this was such a melancholic read for me (even though there’s so much papapa) because they pine SO HARD at the start, don’t get me wrong though, it’s also cute because there’s so much canon flirting!but my heart really broke when filming was ending and yb’s thoughts were “We could run away together. Miss our flights. Stay here in Hengdian, or fuck it, go somewhere where no one knows us and just...” *sobs* pls go read!!!
What’s Your Emergency? by bluefloral
[general, 2k, complete]
police officer yibo and single father xiao zhan! yuan, xiao zhan’s son calls 911 for help with his math homework and officer yibo helps him 🥺 this was such an adorable short read!
