“Alright, I’m making an executive decision because if I let you do any work we’ll get out of here in 5 minutes,” Y/N said as they rolled their eyes.

“Pookie bear isn’t the entire point of escape rooms to escape the room?”

“In the reasonable 2 hours provided, darling”

“It’s not my fault this room isn’t hard enough to escape from”

“Just stand in the corner and look pretty”

“But Y/N, sweetheart, how could I take your job?”

Sending a playful glare his way, Heizou finally stands back and lets you get to work with a joking pout (he’s happy to just have an excuse to look at your pretty face).

an hour easily passes by with heizou's quick comments and jokes, and he’s almost impressed by how stubborn you are to complete the puzzles by yourself.

“…Should I be jealous with how intensely you’re staring into that painting’s eyes?”

“I just know the next clue is hidden somewhere on this painting I just don’t know where,” Y/N complains. “It has to be this painting, all the others have had puzzles in correlation to them and this is the only one left!”

“Aw does my cutie pie need some help?”

“You can help me by using some actually bearable nicknames”

“No promises, but give me a kiss and I’ll consider”

You don’t bother with a response and throw one of the many bracelets you have on (courtesy of heizou) at him. He catches it like the little shit he is.

“Come on you got this! Just this puzzle and you officially have completed an escape room by yourself”

“You’ll do it next time pookie bear”

“Heizou, darling, I will break up with you if you don’t stop with the insufferable nicknames”

“You would never sweetie”

“You’re right, who else would buy me boba?”

Heizou doesn’t respond and takes your hand into his before pulling you close. The two of you walk in a comfortable silence, just enjoying being together out in public. Eventually the two of you arrive at Heizou’s favorite boba place where he tells you to sit down while he gets into the line.

He soon returns with two large bobas in hand ((me personally i love taro)) to the sight of you smiling down at your phone.

“What’s got you smiling so wide darling?”

“I just found the cutest boots ever, and they’re on sale! My followers are going to freak out over this find”

“Well what are you waiting for, show them to me. Those are cute, you said they were on sale?”

“Yeah, it’s that fashion influencer luck helping me out once again”

“Thanks for taking me out, next time I’m paying for everything”

“We’ll see, my irresistible charm will make you distracted enough to forget that promise”

The two of you stare into eachother’s eyes before Heizou starts to lean in. Just as his lips are about to reach yours, the two of you are interrupted by the loud ringing of his phone.

“…Do you seriously have Cupid by fifty fifty as your ringtone?”

“Barbara asked me to and I couldn’t say no”

“That’s fair enough, Barbara is my favorite of the professional disasters”

“…I should probably call her back”

“You should, I’ll call you tonight?”

“Yeah! Yeah sounds good”

Heizou turns away from your doorstep ready to walk home.

“Oh come back here loverboy, you seriously think I’m gonna let you leave without a kiss goodbye?”

Heizou, being down bad, turns around as fast as humanely possible and runs back up to you.

Simp.

tagged by @snug-gyu 🩵 thank you for thinking of me!

Groups You Started Stanning?

not sure if this qualifies as stanning, but i came across xikers while doing the weekly kpop mv session with my bff. but they are such babies that it feels wrong to stan them. but i do really love the vibe of their music. i told my bff that they remind me of dreamcatcher, super anime-esque opening music, but they're boys!

we as a society don't give enough credit to soyeon's big brain

i feel like with (g)i-dle's discography, especially with their latest comebacks, it's been very obvious that they try to incorporate feminism and "girl power" in their concepts. this is so obvious in their concepts and lyrics (think nxde, tomboy, queencard, etc), but they're also using their music as a way to manipulate search algorithms in feminist manners.

with their song nxde (originally named nude until the company argued with her to change it and they settled on a compromise), soyeon had wanted to name it nxde not only because of society's hyper-sexualization of women but also because how that would change search results when anybody tries to search results for "gidle nude" or similar queries. whereas previously it would likely generate much more explicit content, it now primarily shows the group's music video and promotional contents. this intentional naming not only impacts the present search algorithm, but will last into the future as well (think exo's song baby, where even now when you search "exo baby" their songs comes up rather than articles about the married member's wife and child).

in a society where there is a rise in perverse searches and images being ai generated non-consensually, soyeon's choice to name the song nxde not only criticizes society's view of women but also helps make it more difficult for explicit images of the group to be spread online. in addition to the prevention of the group's explicit content, the title also hinders netizens from finding "idol nudes" in general and the south korean public from being access child pornography as well. while pornographic material of any sort is heavily banned in korea, there can still be ways for the content to be spread online. however, k-netz have come out to say that since (g)i-dle's name in korean 아이들 (aideul) is synonymous with the world for child, searches for illicit content is now even more difficult to access as the group's music has replaced the top searches.

soyeon and (g)i-dle are using their song to change not just the search algorithm but using the search algorithm to spread their definition of the word "nude", one that means one's bare self rather than the tainted definition that promoted the sexualization of one's body. this idea has transcended comebacks and fans often reply to criticism regarding their outfits with the song nxde, bringing its message back into conversations; and by trending nxde on different platforms, once again the algorithm can push its message to the masses.

soyeon's impact did not end with her own work, the use of the song nxde was also used by kpop fans on tiktok as the background music for their edits highlighting incidents and female idols who were criticized by netizens and the industry. kpop fans are also finding that they can post about their own experiences with non-consensual sexualization of their bodies through posting and venting through the use of this audio. since its release it's opened new conversations regarding the sexualization of idol bodies as well as the exploitation of women's bodies and allowed for these videos to trend more easily through the use of the song's audio which has been promoted by tiktok's algorithm.

while some might say that soyeon might not have anticipated these growing conversations, i'd argue otherwise, it's obvious that she wanted to start conversations and change society's perception of what is "nude" through the use of her music. with such intentional lyricism and the way she develops songs as responses to criticism faced by the group and women in general it's very unlikely that these conversations were not anticipated by soyeon, rather, it's likely one of the goals she had for the creation of this song.

anyways, stream (g)i-dle and normalize looking into the lyrics of kpop songs.
