#but im an adult and it doesn't really work for me anymore‚ but the concept is so fun so I'm happy i get to read something like that again

[spokelseskladden]

When i was like 12 i used to read those self insert fics where fans gets transported into the world they're a fan of, like either through the isekai method, or like a portal or astral projection idk. Anyway, i started reading Omniscient Reader's Viewpoint and it scratched that itch 12 year old me created, like hell yeah normal regular guy, get some cool powers and hang out with the characters you love, go off king. Also look out for the horrors

So glad that you’re feeling up to writing! Have we seen Matty and teacher’s first fight? Feeling angsty today. Or if you’re feeling more fluff, maybe first time they have to build something together and she’s trying to focus on the directions and well we know how that prob goes….

ahh, thank you, my love! and omg, I love both of these concepts, so I am gonna talk briefly about both of them hehehe.

✿❀✿✿❀✿✿❀✿✿❀✿✿❀✿✿❀✿✿❀✿✿❀✿

The first fight would definitely be tour-related, I think. Matty is stressed at the idea of leaving you after you've only just got together. Time apart is hard for any relationship, let alone a new one. But Matty doesn't communicate that. He just mopes around and keeps on starting petty fights. He's trying to avoid you a little bit, too. If he starts spending less time with you now, then it won't be as bad when he really goes.

He thinks that if you're fighting before he leaves, he won't miss you as much, and it won't be as hard. He's wrong, of course, and if he said that to anyone, they would tell him that. But he hasn't told anyone that thought process because he knows that, and he needs to live in denial a little longer.

And if you're honest, you're freaking out, too. But in a very different way to Matty. You're just scared of how much you're gonna miss him. So you want to spend as much time with him as you can. Which doesn't work so well when he's trying to avoid you.

One week before tour is when it finally boils over. It's 11 pm. when Matty gets home, and you're kinda done with him. So you’re waiting on the sofa when he comes in. He drops his jacket on the kitchen chair and sits next to you with a huff, rubbing his eyes with his hands and sighing heavily. 

So, in the weeks coming up to the tour, it's weird. Matty is leaving home early and arriving late, claiming it is tour practice, but you know that the other boys are home way before him. You try to cuddle with him in bed, but he gives you a quick squeeze and rolls back over.

But you rationalise it to yourself by telling him he's more involved as a creative director, so maybe that's why he's home at odd times and is acting off. You choose to ignore the fact that he comes home smelling of wine and someone else's perfume.

You don't beat around the bush, “are you cheating on me.” You ask bluntly, facing Matty with a blank look on your face. 

Matty choked on the air immediately, coughing out his answer as quickly as he could, “What? No. why would you think that?” he looked at you with wide eyes, and he could tell you were on edge and trying to keep a strong facade up still.

“You've been avoiding me for weeks. You’re leaving for tour next week, and every time I try to spend time with you, you fob me off.” Matty tries to cut in and defend himself, but a sharp look from you shuts him up. 

“And you come home smelling like a bar and some random woman. So please, just be honest with me, Matty. I can't do this anymore. Im exhausted.” Your eyes are glassy with unshed tears. The wall you had tried to build was quickly crumbling as you just became more desperate for an explanation. 

Matty feels his heart shatter as soon as he sees the tears forming in your eyes, and he cracks immediately. “I promise im not cheating on you. I could never do that to you. I've just been freaking out about leaving you when I go on tour. I know my job is hard to cope with, and my leaving for months at a time doesn't help. It’s practically ruined every relationship I've ever had, and I just can't cope with losing you” Matty pours his heart out as he speaks, dropping his head in his hands and rubbing his face. "And it's just some random perfume I found in the studio, I was trying to cover up the fact that I've been chain smoking cigarettes. didn't want to freak you out."

“Oh,” Matty says dumbly, trying to process how you can always be so mature and adult in situations like this. 

You sigh in relief at his words, but can't help yourself from blueting out what you really think. “Well thats stupid.” You say bluntly. Matty shoots up and looks at you confused for a few seconds until you keep talking.

“Matty, I came into this relationship knowing what you do. I knew tour would happen, and I knew everything that would come with being with you. And I still wanted to, because I care about you.” You pull one of Matty's hands away from ringing together and hold it in your stroking the back of his hand with your thumb. 

“Yeah, oh,” you repeat, giggling at Matty's choice of words, or more choice of word. He smiles at your laughter and pulls you into his side. You settle in quite happily, laying your head on his chest and looking up at him. 

“M’sorry for freaking out on you. I can't promise it won't happen again, but I promise to talk to you about it if I do.” You nod at Matty, leaning up to peck his lips and coming back down with a content smile on your face. 

“Thats okay,” you start, “now. We have like 3 episodes of bake off to watch because you've been avoiding me, so can we watch them now? I want to see susan fuck up pastry week and laugh at her with you."

Matty laughs and nods happily, flicking on the tv and pulling a blanket over the both of you, humming as you both settle into the sofa.

✿❀✿✿❀✿✿❀✿✿❀✿✿❀✿✿❀✿✿❀✿✿❀✿

Now, as far as building stuff together, I think you managed to avoid it for a good couple of years. Until you're pregnant, and it's time to build baby Healy’s nursery. 

Matty is on the floor and is flipping around the ikea booklet, trying to figure out which way is up. You're sitting on the chair behind him, trying to secretly google a YouTube tutorial despite his many protests. 

“Wait. That's part b? I thought that was part d?” You hear Matty mumble to himself, and you can't help but burst out laughing at his words. 

Matty looks at you, annoyed before whining and moving the floor to come and sit in front of you with the book in his hands. “You're a teacher. Can you teach me how to read again? Apparently, I've forgotten how.” he pouts and rests his head on your thigh, looking up at you with a mopey face. 

“Mm, im not sure I can. Why don't we just hire someone, baby? What's the point of being rich if you don't use your money to do things you don't wanna do” you say, stroking his hair and fiddling with the ringlets.

“But I wanna build it for them. For Annie, my dad built everything because I was busy freaking out every five minutes. Thought I could build something for this one” Matty explains, placing his hand on your bump.

You didn't actually need to build anything yet. You've still got almost half of your pregnancy left, so there's time. But when Matty puts his mind to something, he's doing it. 

You hum thoughtfully as Matty continues to stroke your bump, and suddenly, you feel a weird flutter you haven't felt before. You scrunch your face and look down to Matty, who is staring at your bump with wide eyes.

“Did you feel that too? It felt weird. Maybe my acid reflux is back or something” You had been having a hard time with heartburn your whole pregnancy, and assumed it was that again. But Matty sitting up and placing his ear against your stomach tells you it must be something different.

“What are you doing? Matty-” You try to figure out what your boyfriend is playing at, but Matty holds his hand up and shushes you. 

“Wait stop talking for a sec.” You pause and huff at being told not to talk, but that fluttery feeling comes again, and before you can question it, Matty pulls away from you with a gasp.

“They're kicking! That's what that feeling is. They're kicking. C'mon, feel.” Matty grabs your hand and holds it to your stomach, and soon enough, you feel a pair of tiny feet pressing against your hand.

Your jaw drops, and you look down at Matty, whose eyes are glassy. He has a massive smile on his face as he places his hand over yours, watching your bump as you both feel your baby kicking for the next 10 minutes. You are both silent apart from the odd gasp when you feel them kick again. 

Matty soon takes his hand off you and grabs the IKEA booklet again, determined to make this crib with no help. And you don't try and get him to give up this time, sitting back and watching happily as he sticks his tongue out to focus as he builds.

Drabblecember Day 9: A Walk Outside

‧˚₊•┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈୨୧┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈•‧₊˚⊹

Pairing: Hasumi Keito × Miyasato Miyuki

• Warnings: None (That I know of, other than canon x oc I guess?)

• Contents include: childhood friends kinda, mutual pining, "It's going to be Christmas soon, Keito" .

•Note: a late start but Im gonna do the rest of drabblecember for writing sample purposes!

• Don't steal my writing please 😐👍

˚ ༘ 🪭 × 👾-; ˳೫˚

‧˚₊•┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈୨୧┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈•‧₊˚⊹

˚୨୧ - 

1: 37 a.m.

Being UNDEAD's producer meant one core thing - Night Shoots. Lots of them.

What a life, right? Only months before had Miyuki spent her nights hidden away and up late after the infrequent shift helping out at her family's shrine - Finally she gets a night shift job,  and her internal systems decide she was supposed to be asleep approximately three hours ago. Is this a prank? Was she getting old? Is this what it means to be a "normal" adult? 

 'Gross.'  she thinks, shuddering at the concept.

Case and point, she was exhausted. 

Returning from an egregiously long and tiring shoot, Miyuki sees UNDEAD off once they arrive at the ES Building. Usually anyone else who's even awake at this hour would only be seen at the dorms, but out wandering about in the cold, was none other than Keito Hasumi. 

Wait, what the hell was he doing out here?

Ye gods it was embarrassing. They've known each other for years, but upon catching sight of him Miyuki frantically attempts to find somewhere out of sight. By the time she finds one though, it's too late. Now in an awkward confrontation mid-sidewalk, they lock eyes. Neither one of them moving an inch until -

 "Uh, w-what are you doing out this late?"

" I could ask you the same. "

They stood in deadlock,  tension as thick as it was cold outside that night. Fidgeting with the trim of her scarf, Miyuki answers her estranged childhood friend

“Work ran late tonight, so…” She trails off, following up with

“You?”

“I wasn’t able to sleep, so I thought I’d catch some air" Keito responds plainly, in a bold attempt to mask nerves of his own. 

"Right…" Miyuki nods, averting her gaze. 

Further dread sets in as she weighs the options before her. She was either stuck walking home in the middle of the night by herself, or stuck facing someone she wasn't quite sure what to call anymore. 

Panicking internally about how in god's name she could POSSIBLY save herself from this dilemma now, she's brought back to earth by Keito asking

"Were you…planning on walking home by yourself at this hour?" 

"Er…kinda? Don't really have any other options…" Miyuki answers sheepishly

Keito sighs, head already in his hand

" W-What?" She asks, baffled

Keito simply shakes his head and replies

"How…Incorrigible. You've worked yourself enough today, at least let me help you this once."

"Seriously? You don't have to, really! I-" She stammers

"I insist." 

Defeated, Miyuki sighs and accepts his offer, beginning the cold journey home in an awkward yet peaceful silence. 

They walk the empty streets side by side, lit by lamp posts and the occasional series of holiday decor. Mesmerized by the quiet scene, Miyuki doesn't notice an uneven sidewalk ahead until she's already tripping  over it.  Not quite falling over, she's caught by Keito's hand grabbing her own, and warned about "being more careful" as one might expect coming from him. They finally reach the Miyasato shrine, but only upon arrival do either of them realize they never actually stopped holding hands after that. Maybe it just felt safer that way? More comfortable?

Regardless, now flushed at the possible ideas and implications in both of their minds, they part ways with sheepish goodnights. Hit with another wave of exhaustion, Miyuki  flops herself amongst the pile of plushies and pillows on her bed. She mashes her face into a pillow and grumbles to herself, cheeks still flushed

"God, I've got to get over this…"

The fandom needs more aus so Im adding one I just made#2

Mp100 au - The whole basis for Reigen and Mob's mentor-mentee relationship is built on a lie that was good for the both of them. Mob needed to know a self-assured adult esper who understood that his powers can be dangerous and has thought about that constructively and productively, and Reigen needs a nephew-best-friend he can help teach and grow so he has a long-term social relation.

So it's a little difficult to think of who would fit the bill for Reigen - if I can figure that out, then I know who would be Mob.

Yusuke would be the one to leave the safe water bottle company and make his own office and lie about having ESP to a kid who needs guidance, I think. But would he break that character once he learned the kid DOES have powers? If he's an adult and assuming he grew up pretty okay (Reigen standards) then I imagine at most that he's having a moment of inner panic abt having lied abt this bc he thought the kid was fibbing. And then he looks at the kid being so hopeful and glad and he folds - he'll roll w it! The kid needs the lie right now.

Oh, Masaru could be a good choice? The very kid that Yusuke saves and dies for in canon! Another thought was Botan in a role-reversal au as well as mp100 au.

Suddenly entranced by the concept of Yukina in the role of Shou. "See you later!" She says with a gentle smile. Anthy Himemiya is that u--

In that case I could see Yusuke as Mob and Shizuru and Botan having dual roles as Reigen (being the mentor: Shizuru, being the goofball w crazy charisma rolls: Botan)

Kuwabara siblings sharing the spot for Serizawa would be neat! They're very sensible in canon, both practice and encourage a normie life of studying and working despite their powers, so Serizawa's problem of finding it extremely difficult to control his powers due to his anxiety feel like a sufficient background for what would push them into a terrorist organisation.

Hina as Soichirou... She's been dead too often in my aus and concepts, Rui usually taking the spotlight, it's time for "oh no it's worse when they Lived". Epic divorce-woman ftw. Rui fulfills Shimazaki's powers of teleportation and knows where Yukina is at all times. She would really like Yukina to just stop trying to convince her mother not to be a terrorist anymore. For plot reasons she'll sometimes help Hina out in her plans if it doesn't negatively interfere w the twins' lives.

Hiei as Takenaka who is distressed abt his sister repeatedly running away to pursue their birth mother who at this point kinda scares him and he's not seen her in years. Also very isolated in being an ESP-kid and having no one else like him to talk to, upset to learn the Telepathy club is a lie. We don't see him for SO MANY episodes and when he returns as the twin brother of the There-are-so-many-things-wrong-with-this-child (Yukina).

Kurama might be part of Claw to help out his mother... Perhaps he is a Serizawa? (Speaking like these are actors for a theatre production) Koenma is the child in claw w the wooden dolls who cries when they get OP-broken.

I love Yusuke btw but I can't stand when a MC from one series is transferred as the MC of a different series for an au simply bc the character is the MC. It's just so automatic. I personally also like to use Mob for drawing studies when deciding how to draw Yukina's expressions and write her thoughts and actions, but it also grates on me to spend more than 10 minutes to just switch all the character roles for the personalities most similar (why not just go watch the original...). This is the hater in me! Sometimes I find her.

How the Brothers Would Try to Get the MC Back After a Breakup

I have a much longer one in the works, but dug this out of my old drafts and just had to polish it off real quick. Not sure why I never finished it. 🤷‍♀️

Lucifer

His first tactic is to try and make them try to get back with him.

That means he’s going to go out and slay it! He’s going to make sure he’s looking great and really making a point of just how much he can do and how capable he is in literally Every. Way. If they’re watching, he’s going to be amazing. Period.

Buuut he’ll be sure to treat them super coldly throughout... This isn’t him trying to nicely ask them to come back to him, oh no, this is just making a point about how much they threw away, stupid human...!

If this doesn’t send them crawling back then he’s really in a bad place… He really needs them to come back on their own because his pride won't let him…

If he ever has to ask, it will feel more like a business deal than a reconciliation but that means he’s desperate. Hear him out at least.

Mammon

He’s going to be an absolute nightmare...

I think we all know that Mammon would fall apart without MC and it really wouldn't be a graceful fall…

Man will go through all the stages of grief seemingly every hour, everywhere from "WELL I DON'T NEED YA ANYWAY!" to, "Baby I'll buy ya anything, please come back…!"

The worst of it comes out when he's drunk and it's also when his worst ideas sound fantastic!

Not above breaking into their room at night just to sing them a poorly-written, sappy love song.

Also not above begging his brothers, Simeon, and even Diavolo for ideas on how to win them back.

If he could put it on one of those airplane banners and fly it across the Devildom, he would. Please MC, he's trying here…

Leviathan

Pity. Pity. So much pity. He is not afraid to treat his own dignity like collateral damage if he has to.

In the weeks after the breakup, Levi would probably be best described as one of those gelatinous deep sea Blobfish thrown on dry land, just with 90% more sadness and wallowing.

Assuming he leaves his room at all, he'll look like complete trash who hasn’t slept in weeks. Just an ultra-depressed otaku covered in Dorito dust and self-pity…

Basically, everything about him is going to scream, "I'M MISERABLE WITHOUT YOU, PLEASE COME COMFORT ME!!!" and considering that may have initiated their relationship to start with, it's not a terrible tactic.

If turning into a pathetic beached jellyfish of despair doesn't work then he'll try begging too. Third brother or not, dignity was never a priority here. Just MC… Always MC.

Satan

Meet our resident drunk texter.

During the day, Satan is going to take more of a Lucifer route and just be as impressive as he possibly can. However, he doesn't quite have Lucifer's level of deep emotional repression through pure spite…

What that means is occasionally he's going to crack and it's rough.

Get a few drinks in him and Satan will just break into a sobbing mess… Any poor soul in the vicinity will have to listen to his incoherent babbling about how many dates he's had with MC, how much he loves them, and why he can't sleep without them anymore…

But the texts… Man, are they something…

Satan: MC yourr the sptinkles to my waffls

Satan: why did you leave me? 🥺

Satan: im in the bat, its really cold  here

Satan: pleaae come home 😭😭😭

Satan: I'd murder fr yo

Satan: i mean love you

Satan: come back please

Asmodeus

Jealousy. Pure, simple jealousy. You think he can’t have three other people on his arms by the end of the week? Don't you know what you’re missing??

If Mammon is going through grief stages, then Asmo is stuck on anger. To think that he, HE, would be broken up with!! The nerve!!!

He'll go out clubbing and fucking and make a big'ol deal out of it for at least a week, but if it doesn't really help his case then he's really screwed… (like, figuratively this time)

After his anger burns out there'll be A LOT of crying and Asmo will make it his mission to get together again!!

That could involve everything from long-winded apology speeches, to dragging Solomon into complicated "Let's date again!" schemes, to dangling himself in front of MC like a carrot on a stick to try and entice them back.

EVERYONE in the House is going to hear about it and it'll drive them all crazy, but hey, anything in the name of love, damnit!!

Beelzebub

Lots of gifts, mostly food.

You'd think he'd be leaving offerings to a pagan god with the amount of food he tries to give MC… The man could actually feed a village with those plates!

To be frank, Beel doesn’t even have to do all that much in the grand scheme of things. A sad Beel is like a sad puppy, it just tugs at the heartstrings by its pure existence!

It also helps that he'd be willing to just… talk about getting back together like emotionally mature adults (novel concept, I know)

If they talk it out and the MC still isn't interested then expect more food and more sad Beel... He'll pretty much be like a depressed Santa Claus with a bag of T-bone steaks.

Be careful how long you keep Beel sad for though, MC, because Belphie isn't afraid to murder you twice. He's keeping a knife in that pillow. Be warned.

Belphegor

He's too busy not caring to even try.

Seriously. He doesn't care. Really. Not at all. Not even a little. Were they even dating? He didn't notice!

In fact, he doesn't care so much that he's going to nap in all of their favorite places, rewatch all of their favorite movies, and listen to their favorite songs because he just doesn't give a shit.

He doesn't care so much that he'll totally still invite them out to festivals and theme parks because it doesn't matter and they can still have a lot of fun together anyway!

He doesn't care SO FREAKING MUCH that if they wanted to nap together again or even cuddle a bit it's totally fine because it doesn't mean anything and he's fine and they're fine and this is fine!! Everything is a'okay!!!

See? No complaints outta him. But if they wanted to get back together uh… that's fine too… please...

[time-to-write-and-suffer]

I was wondering what kind of stories would you like to see more of in NA? (I'm not talking about the raunchy porn NA books that dominate the NA market im talking about the actual age demographic for NA😭).

I want to see more like ... more mature protags? Thing is, currently NA is basically just YA with porn, and don't deal with any of the issues of, like, being a young adult (or a "new" adult, as it were).

The thing with YA is that it's usually about, ya know, a teenager figuring out who they are. And that's all well and good for YA, but it just doesn't work as well in NA as a concept, to me. Like, you're still figuring out who you are as a person when you're 18-25, obviously, but the process is different and so are the expectations and so are you. To me, as an adult, it's just not as interesting to read YA anymore because it's usually about ... kids. These books are not for me because these stories are not written for me. And all NA has done so far, as a demographic/genre, is age up the characters a little (or not, if you're yikes) and then made them fuck a lot and say mean words and there's rape and murder everywhere. You don't really get anything actually adult in new adult, aside from what, ironically, teens would consider to be adult. It's the same old "who am I uwu" "you're the elf fae queen king chosen one space ninja 16-year-old" plot that works for a teen but just doesn't hold up for most adults, and aging your elf fae queen king chosen one space ninja to 19 won't do much to change the fundamental coming-of-age story that is usually mainly appealing to people, ya know, coming of age.

And yes I am dunking on SJM and her ilk, because I'm right.

ANYWAY, I want more NA where the protag's struggles actually, like, reflect the struggles of an actual young adult? Like, I want the whimsy and freedom and fun of YA but instead of horny sex shit (which is also fine, don't get me wrong, but that can't be the entire demographic no matter how hard people suck SJM's crusty dick), we actually like, go deeper into the implications of the worlds and into the characters' lives more, in a way that doesn't fit YA but does play on and account for the older reader's capacity for understanding more complex themes.

Like, maybe a fantasy where the protag is like ... a young working class hedge wizard coming in from their little hick town into a big magic college where the people and expectations are entirely different. Maybe it's an urban fantasy story where the protag works as a receptionist or an assistant for a big fancy monster hunting company. Maybe it's a post-apocalyptic story or a dystopia focusing on the life of an underground resistance fighter, who doesn't shoot guns or is the sole symbol of hope for the people, but is like, a medic or a nurse.

To me YA is for teens and a lot of the time, they're about discovering who the protag is, because that's what's going on in the intended reader's life at the time. And I think NA should be about the protag, armed with the previous knowledge of who they are (no matter how shaky), taking that with them and seeing beyond themselves, less about who they are and more about how they fit into the world they live in, struggling to reconcile themselves with the rest of the world. Because that's, presumably, what's going on in the new adult reader's life. The worst of puberty is over, you're probably sure who you are or at least who you want to be, and now you just gotta find your place in the world and how to get there.

Ya know?

I also want more NA stories where the protags actually have this thing that distinguishes an adult from a teen, and that's personal agency. You can get away with a slightly more passive protagonist in YA because they're usually a kid being pushed around by adults (also a must-have for most stories for kids), while NA should IMO have more push and pull and have the protag actively make decisions that have actual impact on themselves and the world and the plot. A lot of current horny NA just ages up the ineffectual girl protags of yore into more fuckable ages but leaves them just as stupid and incompetent as real-life teens (sorry teens, but you'll agree with me in time) and it's just not as fun to read when you're a grown person expecting a level of competence from another grown person. Like are you an adult orrrr what's going on here?

That's just my take though. And I am fully talking out of my ass. But yeah. That's that on that.

Hope it answered your question!

[greenorangevioletgrass]

Okay so this more platonic concept but yknow how there’s all these imagines for readers being Buckys daughter????i want me some Wilson!reader 😤😤 give me all the sam being the best and worst father ever

notes: Sam as a dad is *chef's kiss* and that is a FACT

warnings: gender neutral reader, a lot of mtual embarrassment lol, and a healthy father/child relationship bc we love that!

***

so Sam wakes up crazy early out of habit. he goes out on a run and then goes home to have breakfast

but not before blasting Marvin Gaye or Stevie Wonders downstairs, knocking on your door going "time to school, monkey!!"

he's all about routines but he knows you don't bode well with too much rigidity, so he mixes it up with music and dancing and goofing around

everyone just knows your dad as a very calm and collected VA counselor who's very patient with whatever bullshit he faces in PTA meetings

and he is, when there's actual conflicts. he would sit you down, go "okay. talk me through it," and listen intently and treat you like an adult

at some point you joke "dang i can never throw tantrums with you! i wanna slam the door and crank out loud music to show you im mad at you dad 😖 like a nORMAL TEEN!!!" lmao

but what everyone doesn't know (at least, not right away) is just how much of a dork he is

you can't ever bring your friends over bc he'd try and talk to them using young people lingo purely to embarrass you (you kicked him out of the living room and he went "yeet" and you wanted to DIE okay???)

goofy dad dancing all day everyday and be like "y'all kids don't know what's cool anymore with your justin bieber and one direction and all that. but earth, wind, and fire is THE JAM"

sometimes said dancing affects food quality and he fucks up dinner bc of it sometimes lmao

"were you jamming to james brown?" "..yea" "....is that why this is a little burnt?" "sorry kid"

and for a little now, you've been in the proximity of captain america (which is huge bc a) he's an icon, and b) he's literally huge lol) which is really cool

now it's your turn to embarrass him like "hey dad can i ask for his autograph? maybe a selfie? or an instastory??"

"man be cool, i work with him. also NO!! he's a fugitive rn!"

but you're already coming up to him and be like "mr rogers, can you sign my cap notebook please?" and Steve is surprised. "I didn't know you had a kid."

your dad was about to answer but you beat him to it. "i told him to keep it down. wouldn't want people to find out my secret identity 😉"

sam just sighs and facepalms for about two days straight looooool

BTS didn't begin their influence with psychology with MOTS at all. It began even before with WINGS Era! It's wonderful how Lumpens worked about it. I have once written a critique about MAMA from J-hope (the MV) and I was amazed by all the elements you can find about figure attachment, Winnicott's theory, etc. I was quite surprised when they realized MOTS because I first started my year in psycho when this album was realized and again I have learned a lot by listening to BTS but also searching by myself about Jung theory. Jung was a friend of Freud, even if after some times he didn't agree anymore with him, Freud was still feeling admirable for Jung and his way of traveling the unknown. It sure needs a lot of courage to do it! Jung is amazing for sure. A genius. I'm still learning a lot about psychology, and it amazes me how even if authors have different models, we can interpreted or view our inner world in a new perspectives to understand it. All models give you an angle-inside about the psyche.

Like Jung, BTS for sure have explored a new world, in the exterior but also inside of themselves. I still wonder how they will interpret their map of soul. After all we all have one, I'm curious to know BTS' MOTS and I feel like the next album will be about it. After their journey in the border of BTS psyche, Persona, they have been in a darkness for quite of time and find a light in themselves in their ego with MOTS7, I wonder what they will give know with BE. Because BE is different than I, than the uncouscious or the Persona. BE is LIVE. BE is REAL. But also BE give you the choice to choose your fate, your action, your future. Even if they have an influence of psychology, I'm pretty sure Hitman Bang, as someone who has studied philosophy, has an influence from Rumi too. In short, I'm excited as a philosophy lover and a psycho learner!!

Also for the ones who don't believe about psychology, just read some articles about how psychology helps people. We are all always in contact with psychologists. The consoler at school or at work, the psychologists who worked with doctors about the development of children, teenagers, adults, and also seniors. Psychologists in psychiatry center, psychologists in administration, justice, etc.

And yes, their method has an effect in the cure of people. It could depend of course of what method you choose to begin a therapy with someone.

Just because in psychology, singularity is important doesn't mean you can't study the human psyche in general, as a science. Epistemology is important here. Thanks for respecting us and our discipline. Love you all 💜

I would love to give you some articles to read or inform yourself about but unfortunely my bibliography is now full of French articles / books. I'm pretty sure by learning about the evolution of psychology and psychanalyse (which is for sure different from Freud era!), you can understand why and how it became a science! ☺️

Also, Freud terms can be quite controversial because they are interpreted differently today. He also constantly changed his way of defined his term, after all he was one of the firsts who made the psychanalytical theory 😂 if you ever want to try to read his books, read firstly how some professionals have interpreted Freud's words by taking into consideration the context and his way of writing. I recommand you to read Quinodox' book about it. He explained it quite well in my opinion and he also explained how the post Freudian psychanalysts have developed the theory and model of psycha. Hope it help you all! ❤️😊

This is so insightful and really well said! Its always awesome to get different points of view especially with people like you who have a much more vast understanding of these concepts than I probably ever will! Also, I love the theory for BE! Im so excited about the album and I really think you're onto the concept! Thank you for responding!! Im definitely gonna check out what you've recommended 💜💜💜

some mannerisms ive developed and will not be elaborating on:

- calculating estimations of how much money ill earn in the next 3-6 months, numerous times, in a month

- drinking tall glasses of milk with just a splash of 0 calorie s'mores flavouring syrup u would normally use for coffees like it's water

- waking up at 7:30-8:30am with no alarm on weekends and soaking in extra hours of alone time and letting my brain jump to what i feel like spontaneously researching

- showering every third day bc my hair has finally been producing more normal oil levels. (want to be showering everyday but my mental health tells me to refuse to wear a shower cap)

- mentally checking out of conversations if i just feel like ive lost energy to mask or hide that im tired

- at work, maximizing being myself to reduce energy draining, reacting by instincts, and can just paint it over as trying to be goofy or entertaining to the children

- when i feel like im working too hard at my minimum wage job, i just match the energy of some of my male co-workers

- i am not embarrassed or anxious to tell work when i cant come in for the next day or need to change my shifts because of school. done putting myself through life endurance tests.

- i can notice myself spending way too much time on my phone and online and on a screen on days and times im not working and i dont like it, and im trying to find a way around it that doesn't just include cleaning or eating

- when i eat, i like to feel like im in a mukhbang, and acknowledge out loud how good the food is

- why is it always easier to get numerous consecutive tasks done so long as i have my noise-cancelling over-ear headphones in and MUST have/know my specific music mood playing

- could go a week unable to watch a single video lecture when alone, gets in a call with my partner and suddenly im the productivity champion chugging through videos and typing at the speed of light for the next 3-4 hours

- my music moods are never genres anymore, but go by theme i.e. "songs with male singers that have voices as deep as i think i hear myself in my head so that when i sing along, it sounds the same" or "songs that feel like angry women being angry, justifiably so" or "songs that make me feel hyper-feminine and dainty and diabolical"

to sum it up, im still mentally ill but ive been really looking out for myself for once instead of trying to fit in and make-look like i always have it together

side note, im v envious of people and artists who i observe diving into a project i am also interested in, and yet they're not held back by the fear of not being up the exact skill level i would think it takes to do or start the thing i.e. writing a book, webtoon, character design, original concept art.

I no longer miss the past me i lost in early 2020, she couldn't handle what's taking place these days heh 2 jobs, 2 finals, embracing more adult responsibility like no longer postponing my road test, i think i handle myself pretty well these days.
