#also fun fact ive never been to an aquarium i dont think or i dont remember

[cxsmicmyeon]

You said friends should send their opinions about the Junmyeon thing. And like yeah they tease him but he always gives it back too? He would relentlessly tease Jongdae for instance, when Jongdae is the one who says Junmyeon is his bias in EXO - so you know hyper focusing in on how your fave is the one being treated badly is a weird mindset if you can not acknowledge all the way he gives that back and teases the other members too. Another example I could think of about Junmyeon saying something that out of context could seem quite mean spirited is when during the aquarium visit in climb the ladder he mentioned that Beluga whale's IQ is the same es Sehun's. If anon wants to bring up how members behaviour looks to non fans then how does Junmyeon calling the maknae stupid look to outsiders? I am not saying this to attack Junmyeon but merely to illustrate my point that this kind of thing is something they all do. He isn't the one victim TM in this group. Plenty of times someone else is the butt of the joke. Often even jokes made by Junmyeon. These guys even found ways to clown on Kyungsoo non verbally when he made a hand gesture to shoo the camera away they all copied him. Its like they are us here on tumblr with stupid shit becoming a meme in their group immediately kinda like how vanilla extract was a thing. And you don't have to find every meme funny. Just like you don't have to find their jokes funny. But they are jokes. Among friends. And francly you are doing a little too much self projecting onto your bias if you think he is the only one in the crosslines of this kind of bad fun. Like maybe if we tally up every joke on every aired second of exo content out there we can draw percentages of who they make fun of the most often. But what would be the point of that other than giving fans another metric for in fighting. Like do the solo stans of the members that get made fun of the most get to then go on and hate everyone else. People already hate each other over whose fave has the least amount of views the least amount of screentime the least jobs etc etc. We gotta stop doing this its ridiculous. Because these boys love each other. They have proven over nearly 11 years just how much they love each other genuinely so dredging up who said what about whom in order to sow discourse is in my opinion so so stupid

this is perf. just great points all across rina.

like i have been saying there is no malice or ill intentions with the joking around because they've known each other for so long. also not to mention theyre all grown adults so im pretty sure they can take light hearted teasing lol.

idk i never really saw this as some sort of issue considering the fact thats just what theyre like and everyone dishes it out and takes it. just bc theres teasing doesnt mean they dont like each other as ive said they are nothing but supportive of each other and have been for 11+ years.

i do wanna give anon the benefit of the doubt maybe theyre new to the fandom and arent aware of the dynamic just yet but never in my years of stanning did i think any member was a target in bad intentioned making fun and im kinda upset i was doubting it ngl

exo will always be together and are 9. exo will always be there for each other. i hope this makes sense im tired lol

@daisugaweek2020 , day 2 : AQUARIUM / Museum

Cute date idea : go to the aquarium and point every ugly fish taking turns saying “this u” til there’s no more ugly fish n there’s no other option than Throwing (playful) Hands. Wrestle in public. Its like a hug but more intense ya know.

[babysizedfics]

this is kinda specific n i doubt u can relate but i love aquariums (rehabilitating ones) n i always get a new favorite fish when i leave, even if its just in acnh, n the last time i played acnh i was just lookin at all the fishies n was kinda imaginin if the sides went to an aquarium?? like what they’d wanna stay near the whole time n what they’d want in the gift shop and felt like i wanted to tell u about it since ur stuff always puts me in a good mood

This is cute!! rehabilitating ones is a nice detail thank you for that

i'm gonna say this is very hypothetical, i dont think in little/big universe they would all go to an aquarium especially while the boys are little but it's fun to think about anyway and i want to write them as little!

So baby vee would be pretty nervous, it's kinda dark, its a very enclosed space, and theres some scary creatures and it reminds him of the ocean which is pretty scary so he stays pressed right up to mama's side the whole time because logan talks about sciencey stuff about the animals, and if vee is in a big enough headspace its reassuring that they arent that scary, and if he is in a smaller headspace then really just hearing mamas voice soothes him

i think that vee's favourite bit would be the rockpool exhibits with the shallow open top tanks with starfish and stuff that you can stroke very very gently! papa holds his hand and helps him stroke the starfish really softly and vee squeaks and wipes his finger on papas tshirt to get the weird feeling off but he's smiling and giggling from it

Logan's favourite would be the jellyfish! because they're like floating brains and theyre majestic - and the movement of them is very soothing so i think at some point inevitably during the trip vee gets a bit overwhelmed and freaked out, maybe by the reptile/amphibian exhibit and while papa and ro stay there, mama takes him into the jellyfish room and holds him for a few minutes while they calm down and watch the pretty jellyfish float

i also think there would be a blacklight in the exhibit to show how the jellyfish are UV and glow in the dark too, so its amost like watching a lava lamp! very calming for vee and logan both, and they get to cuddle which is relaxing and logan talks in his mama logan voice about all the fun facts about the jellyfish and what makes them glow and vee is basically falling asleep from it

but because it's so dark in that room, roman cant go in there bc of his nyctophobia, so patton keeps him in the reptile/amphibian exhibit that vee had to leave and it's romans favourite!! he especially likes the turtles and alligators because he's been really into my little pony recently and pinkie pie has an alligator called gummy and rainbow dash has a tortoise called tank and roman is excited to see them irl!!

plus i think artistically he would be fascinated by the textures on their scales and shells and take a bunch of photos to paint them later

when vee has calmed down from the jellyfish and when roman is finally ready to leave the reptiles it's actually been half an hour when they meet up again to go to the bigger fish. Mama is carrying vee now who is sleepy, and logan is quite thankful that he is less aware because here come the shark tanks and he is certain the calm atmosphere would wash away if baby vee got a proper glimpse at their sharp teeth

and everyone expected patton to like the cute creatures and the baby fish most, but actually the sharks are his favourite!! and he stares at them and is like loganberry!! look how cute they are 🥺🥺🥺 and roman is lowkey glaring at them because they keep getting close to the glass near patton and roman is suspicious they are trying to attack his dad so he stands close to him to protect him but patton is just like AWWW LOOK THAT ONES CHUBBY and not find them frightening in the slightest, he gets really tearful when he reads the information plaque about how endangered they are too and logan has to comfort him

in the gift shop the boys are allowed to get two things each! roman instantly goes for an alligator action figure and a sketchbook with a pretty coral reef pattern on the cover

Vee is very shy about asking for presents and refuses to go looking around the shop with roman and hides himself in papas chest, so patton picks him up and carries him around the aisles saying 'oh look at that, that's pretty!' and '*gasp* i wonder if vee would like that.' and of course the baby can't resist looking

patton pretty much makes his way straight to the soft toys because stuffies are a huge comfort item for virgil, he basically collects them and will never get tired of them, and he doesnt miss how his babys head lifts up from his shoulder when they get closer to them

vee is still shy to pick on his own, so patton just picks ones up he might like and talks about how soft they are until vee can't resist and strokes them - and its obvious when he picks one because patton holds up a big pink starfish and says ooh this one feels good! and vee strokes the soft fabric, then squeezes one of the arms and gasps because it has beans in the bottom! and is squishy on top! perfect! and patton sees this and pushes it into vees hands and then vee feels that its slightly weighted, so he cuddles it to his chest and drops his head on pattons shoulder as if to say 'thats it, theres no point in me looking at anything else ive found the perfect one'

patton tries to remind him that he can have two stuffies but virgil whines and hugs the starfish tighter not really understanding that he doesnt have to give up that one to get another, so instead patton picks out a set of ocean-themed baby bath toys that they can play with at bathtime!

patton finds a coffee mug with a picture of a shark that has 'DADDY SHARK DOO DOO DOO DOO' written on it so of course he gets that

and Logan gets a book about what individuals can do to better preserve ocean life! and he checked the contents, theres a whole chapter on how to help protect sharks and he will be relaying the information back to patton once he reads it

Takegou headcanons cause OOOF my mood. @tsukiakarinoniji

Kou absolutely catches on eventually to the fact that hes using training as an excuse to spend time together so she ends up being the one to ask him out without any silly excuses or prerequisites for why. Just like, hey lets hang out, just the two of us so we can enjoy each others company. She probs asks him out to a shopping area, or maybe to a movie?

Ok but their aquarium date-not-date, she is absolutely going to have an awesome time. Wide eyed amazement, ‘Takeru Takeru look!!’ taking him by the hand and pointing at cool stuff. [ bonus if while shes looking at the sea creatures hes looking at her ] Ok but if the aquarium is by the beach they also hang out there afterwards, walking along the sand during a sunset. Maybe even finding cute seashells. She’s ok with wading in the water and splashing aound and having fun but can’t go further than that [ bonus bonus if she kisses him on the cheek when he walks her to her house ]

I have no idea when down the line this happens but I imagine shes clinging to him for a while cause THIS IS PRETTY FREAKY. But as he holds her in his arms she’s slowly starts relaxing like. And she remembers like Takeru would never do anything to hurt me. Like.  No, ok, I trust him. And then once she calms down she starts looking around and it hits her all at once just how BEAUTIFUL the ocean is. Her face just absolutely lights up and shes breathless. And like then her eyes turn from the ocean to Takeru and like in that moment she realizes just how beautiful he is too??

This isn’t takegou but Nagisa absolutely gives him a hard time about about joining. When theyre like why. hes jsut like ‘UMM HE DOESNT HAVE A GIRLY NAME?? Takeru you have to change your name if you join the club” 

Kou and Takeru having a good ol’ sumer study session. Sitting by a fan, cooling down with popsicles. Maybe they end up sitting down to play video games. Kou is a master at mario kart and super smash bros. 

Kou not being able to sleep she texts Takeru to see if hes awake and they end up just going for a walk at night?? Also alternative possibly in college but they hang at a family restaurant at 3am  

[ side note this is like the 3rd time ive been like im going to sleep NO WAIT ]

im like lying here trying to think of hcs for when theyre in human world and things shed do @ him but i still dont have a good idea of like how they interact there and howd they met and IM NOW REALIZING THAT THAT DOESN THAVE TO BE THE VERSE IM WORKING IN I COULD JUST DO THE ONE WHERE THEYRE STILL IN THAT OTHER SCHOOL

Oh man Im remembering like 4 years back at 5am now, but Kou, I establshed this took place at the beginning of season 1 but that entire time Kou has been really focused on being independent for her brother cause she just carried a lot of guilt around the fact that her brother had to put aside his own grief to help her and her mom and that especially ate away at her as she sees like the effects on never being able to really grieve his dad like she did. Like she kind of blames herself for not being able to be strong like her brother. And just being in this place that isolates her from time just gives her time to finally look at herself and try growing and being better for her own sake outside of her brother? As a side note I also feel like Kou is someone who wants to help people and support people and be strong for others the way her brother did for her

I also feel like a lot of what she does is trying to get the gods to like chill out and have fun with her which while she does do that on occassion in the human world she is a more serious girl who’s more focused on getting stuff down and getting it done right before she lets herself play. She tends to let herself go when shes around more childish people who kind of bring out her own inner child. With Apollon around she’d defs be dragging around Takeru to have fun with her. 

5:30 realization : maybe i should like learn more about the kami aso world and what it was like in that school and the duties of being a human rep before writing hcs for it

[glitteryhottubavenue]

I’m starting this a little later

I hope I can get through the next month. I think I can I think I can. I need to go out and record some more sounds of the city on my zoom. I should do that tomorrow. 

This play is really challenging for a number of reasons. 

1 being that I do not know the system very well and so will have to learn that

2 I am challenged to play 2 instruments and do the design, which I love rising to the challenge of so lets see if this can happen. 

3 Its a famous play of something that is close to my heart.

I bought a soprano trombone today. It is so cute and I cant wait to begin learning how to play the darn thing.

Still learning how to type with my right hand which is amazing to me that it isn’t as dexterous as the other hand and I wonder how long it will take before the two can type at the same pace. 

I will practice and play desire by u2 on this soprano trombone.

It was a weird day for a number of reasons One being that I got a phone call that really put me in my place regarding some work stuff but it’s also family stuff, like chosen family stuff that I am having a hard time growing with apparently. There is this weird circle that I seem to have created with two of the people involved in this event and I am so perplexed as to why I have these feelings of being threatened and or just unsettled in what I thought was my own environment. I got super attached to somenone and it eats at me from time to time because it is still there. I feel all torn up about it and wonder exactly what is to be done and they in turn like someone else. or so they tell me. Ive always assumed that their feelings for another person was the same feelings I have for them. The fact that it takes my breath away just thinking about this person is really perplexing and I cannot rationalize it when I think of the bigger picture and what I want in my life and how and when and who and what I want to do with all of that. I’m really at a loss and they are so willing and happy to take up with other people and I just want to be special to them. But instead I have reckoned that I am once again second fiddle. Hmm I have heard that before haven’t I. When I used to play sports. That was a weird time in my life because I didn’t quite know how to make it in college and then turned to theatre. I always thought that was what fate had in mind for me but from time to time feel a little upset that I never made it to the olympics. Anyway I have a career I’m building and if I made it to the top at this point then I only have down to go after that. Though Ive always wanted to plateau at the top. That would be fun. Mostly though my major concern is money and while I’m womanifesting money (500,000! its coming I can feel it.) I am on a budget and yet like to shop at whole foods so you can see my first world dilemma.

I walked around weho today and was astounded at the amount of a-fucking rad shops and b-rad looking people. Where have I been living? under a rock apparently. 

I just want this show to be good. I think I am very greatful for the time I get to be there working on it. Much earlier than most sound designers and I get to play in the space so we’ll see how we can make that shit work.

I can make that shit work. ANd play the fucking soprano trombone. I almost forgot the name of it. I went to a dispensary (Finally a recreational marijuana law passed in the state of california in 2017 the year of our lorde) and they had a “pop up shop” for the show Disjointed and were selling strains based off of show on netflix. But I can’t believe that it is still illegal and all for a chance to crack down on people of color. You know, that’s fucked up. And they’re still doing it today and not letting the incarcerated pot dealers out of prison even though it’s becoming legal in most states. PEOPLE ARE IN JAIL BECAUSE OF POT AND IT’S LEGAL NOW. thats fucked up. 

I’d like to write a something about this case of injustice. It would be great if I wrote a musical. Why do I have reservations about writing a musical. Ive never done it before is I guess the main reason and what if it isnt good is my next reason but my reason for doing it is because a-you like music and b-you like musicals. Start writing you fool.

There are several different options I have to go with. 

A Sleater Kinney Musical

A Riot GRRL Musical

A musical about a lesbian couple somehow 

a musical about transmen

a musical about a festival

a musical about a queer love triangle

a musical about 2 lady pirate lovers

a musical about beyonce

a musical about a tom robbins novel (book?)a

a musical about the state of america

a musical about taking your vitamins

a musical about the theatre tech

a musical about what its like to work in an aquarium

a musical about what it’s like to work in a food truck

a musical about eating your vegetables 

a musical about the experiences of tomboys

a musical about an anime show

a musical 

hmm that’s all I have for now

a musical about hippos

I mean I guess I could literally write down anything and see what sticks

a musical about hats

a musical about bats

a musical about rats

a musical about shoes

a musical about columbia

a musical about the rain in the wintertime

then I start wrinkling up my nose and want to stop

why do I keep having a rift with c what is this distance, what is she treating me like and what is their relationship with j why does it irk me. why do I get so sad when I hear about these people. I miss them? Why do I want to be in j’s arms so much they have a life and its very well established and I just fantasize and fantasize and need to get it out, purge myself of this arraignment because it cannot be healthy for either one of us. I mean unless we kept it light but I keep obsessing and not learning my lesson and keep putting my fingers into the fire. It’s s a button I can’t stop pressing and I dont know why. I also get sad when I don’t get attention but know I don’t really warrant it. Like for real yet I feel like I need it or want it or deserve it yet I am not owed a goddamn thing by anyone and would rather concentrate on work than move on I guess. 

I think it’s a connection that will prove to be something in time but not now. I am just so drawn to it. motherfucking flame. Why though, can’t I just like someone my own age and style. I would need to meet such a person in real life and since I don’t have a life but the rehearsal room right now it will be interesting to see what happens next. At least I have pretty people to look at in the rehearsal room. I can knock this one out of the park. I know it!
