Hi! Thank you so much for writing for me. I'm honestly honored!

My username here is the_angst_alchemist, but if you post it on Tumblr, then please tag BritishSass. (also, if you need any info on literally anything about my thoughts, then just send me an ask, I won't mind it at all.)

General likes:

-I love nightmare fics! I've written some myself, but any sort of thing with that is always a thing I love.

-Ghost-hunting would be an incredibly fun time ^_^

-I ship Bob/Helmut, Lucy/Ford, Lucy/Cassie, Otto/Ford, and Fred/Boyd/Gloria/Edgar, so if you're gonna include ships, those are mine.

-I'm a-okay with trauma, torture, etc.

-I love seeing Bob and Otto being buddies who argue a lot.

Do Not Wants:

-Leave Raz out of danger, oh my god, leave him out of danger PLEASE

-Do NOT portray Augustus as a bad dad. I am being serious.

-Don't portray Crispin as a good guy.

-Don't harm any rats or owls. Those two are my comfort animals.

-Vomiting squicks me out.

Extra prompts:

-The trick-or-treating one is specifically because I think it'd be cute to have a story of someone taking either Truman or Raz out trick-or-treating when they're young! It's just there if you absolutely cannot do the rest.

-I think that a ghost-hunting fic could be super neat, especially if you could include Thorney Towers folks as the ghosts, maybe? Up to you, though!

-If you've seen Mystery Skulls: Animated, that sort of plot is equally as cool to me! Totally up to you on what characters.

For art, i would prefer something cute with a couple's costume for Bob/Helmut or the psychic 7 dressing up together! ^-^

Good morning Crimson! Were you able to watch the concert? Weverse and Naver were total messes! Thankfully I caught some thanks to some Twitch streamers, but I missed a bunch of songs. Watching the concert got me wondering - what is the one song you'd most want to see them perform live? And if you could go to a concert of theirs anywhere in the world, where would you want to go?

-Midnight

Hey Midnight! I wasn't able to catch the concert due to Weverse being a mess. I also set my alarm nearly an hour after the concert started by accident so I had missed the little there was on Weverse. On Twitter, I tried looking through my timeline but couldn't find any Twitch links, though I did see some clips of UGH!, Boy with Luv, 00:00 O'clock, Cypher pt. 3, and Mic Drop and I was able to watch the full Run BTS performance on there too. Hopefully the performances will get uploaded on YouTube by HYBE so we can watch them in a decent quality (I swear half the time for these performances that are uploaded by random people they are not the best quality or they don't include the full performance).

I hope you enjoyed the concert! Idk if the guys will be attending the end of the year awards yet, so for now this is the last OT7 schedule for a while (that I'm aware of).

Out of all of their songs that they could perform live, it is really hard just to pick one. Personally, it would be nice to bring some of their older stuff back (which to me is pre Love Yourself. Wings is already 6 years old!). While they have performed some title tracks like BS&T, We Are Bulletproof pt. 2, and Boy in Luv, we almost never get b-sides. It was nice that at the Busan concert they actually did perform some stuff like Cypher pt. 3 and My City! I'd also love if they could perform some of mots:7 in front of a live audience since we haven't gotten to experience many of those songs in person.

Since the concerts for the world tours tend to mostly have the same set list, it can be hard to choose a particular place since I'd be getting the same thing and I'd probably just end up choosing a place closer to me to save travel expenses. But if I could truly go anywhere to see them and not have to worry about money, I'd either chose NYC, London, or Seoul. Maybe even Paris.

I hope this was good!

You all know the trope of the Corrie Commanders becoming increasingly closer and protective of Fox as the war goes on, and sometimes become even hostile towards the rest of the CC's.

That, but they are really just competing over who Fox likes more. Thorn and Cody have a fistfight about it on the streets.

彡A LOVER SO BEAUTIFUL THAT HE ALMOST DIES

☆. contains: bf!satoru gojo x fem!reader; fluff fluff fluff!!!!!!, reader almost gives him a heart attack smh, they're very cute and very much in love wc: 1.1k

walking through the door, his eyes immediately start scanning the crowd in search of you. suguru mumbles something about getting drinks and wanders off, leaving bf!gojo to his mission. and then he hears it. his ears perk up at his own personal favourite sound - your laughter. it bounces off the walls, muting every other sound in the room and it makes the corners of his lips twitch upward. god, he can't wait to see you.

and finally.

there you are.

a group of people step aside just in time and it's like something out of a movie. everything is in slow motion and everyone in the background blurs, all except for you. you're facing a friend of yours, not noticing your beloved boyfriend almost having a heart attack, before said friend nudges you toward him. turning around, you greet him with the biggest smile.

satoru feels his heart explode. he's standing there like a fish out of water, his mouth hanging ajar. you look like an angel. the lights are hitting you perfectly, making it seem like you're the only person in the room. finally regaining consciousness over his body, his hand flies to his chest with a big sigh, making you giggle. excusing yourself, you start making your way over to him and his eyes almost pop out of his head. it's like he's seeing you for the first time again.

he keeps his hand over his heart, trying to make sure it stands in it's place and he seems to be speechless. that's a first. there just aren't words good enough to describe you. sure, he can keep calling you his angel but in reality that just won't suffice. he needs to start making up new words for the love of his life. a whole new language just meant for you.

when you're just about two steps away, satoru releases another deep sigh, letting his eyes close and head hang back. you're killing him. you really are. he lolls his head to the side as he looks at you with his one opened eye. if he were to look at you with both of them, his heart would surely give out then and there.

now stood in front of him, with an unwavering smile, you beam at him and his dramatic antics. raising a hand, you brush a stray white hair from in front of his eyes, fingertips gently brushing over his cheek - a pinkish hue now embellishing his face.

satoru stares down at you and all he can think is how fast could he get a wedding ring? is there a store nearby? would it be open at this hour? how silly would it be if he just dropped down to his knee right now? would you say ye--

"you're drooling." you say with a giggle. you're trying to remain cool and calm and collected but in reality, his reaction is making you sick; the butterflies in your stomach are about to burst out of you and you can feel your ears burning. god, you hope he doesn't notice.

he does. how could he not. he's now extremely focused on your current state, how even though you try to keep your eyes on him, they seem to keep flickering down to your fidgety fingers. how even though, a big grin adorns your face, a deep blush creeps up your skin - a hint of shyness poking through.

"a-am not." he nevertheless wipes his mouth with the back of his hand, smiling. he takes your small hand into his big one and urges you to do a spin for him. "c'mon, show me."

laughing, you do as he says. still holding onto his hand, you do a full 360 and demonstrate your outfit, making him groan and grasp at his heart once more. do you know what you're doing to him?

"you are ridiculous." he is truly the most dramatic person you know.

"you are the most beautiful girl on the planet." but also the sweetest.

your eyes soften while his are filled with pure admiration. you are the one for him. a comfortable silence falls between you, gazes and fingers locked together. bound together. it's just the two of you in this crowded room.

"thank you." it comes out as a whisper. "you look so handsome." you raise your free hand to trace over his tie and up and over his shirt collar. you can smell his cologne, it's the one you gifted him last year and it warms your heart.

he leans down to your ear and whispers back. "i think i'm having a heart attack."

"you- wait, what?" you pull back at his serious tone but you're still met with just a stupid smirk. "that's not funny, satoru. heart attacks are a serious topic."

"and i am so serious, baby. dead serious." he places your palm over his heart and you feel it strongly thumping in it's cage. "told you."

"maybe it's trying to escape, have you considered that? maybe it's fed up with your antics, hm?" you tease.

"well, maybe it's making it's way over to you, to crawl into your chest, have you considered that? maybe it just wants to stay with you forever, hm?" he quips back.

you flutter your eyelashes at him, trying to find the words to show how much you really truly appreciate him and his silly words. so you take his other hand and bring it to your chest, where he meets your very own pounding heart.

"hm, maybe we should exhange them? you know... maybe they'll calm down?" and it's the seriousness in your voice that really gets him. satoru feels himself turning into putty. it's like he's melting away. you and your touch and your words and your heart - it's all too much for him. his mind goes back to that proposal scenario. he wants you to be his and him to be yours. he does want to exhange hearts.

he leans down to press a chaste kiss on your nose. "i love you." he has said it before but he doesn't tire of it. you need to know.

pressing a kiss on your cheek. "i love you." he says it again. his affection is making laughter bubble in your throat and you don't want this moment to end.

another one on your other cheek. "i love you."

and finally, he presses his soft lips to yours, hands still holding each other's hearts. "wan' to have your heart and wan' you to have mine." he mutters against you.

another silent giggle escapes your lips and falls straight into his mouth. he swallows it proudly. "promise?"

"promise."

My story for you is coming along, Crimson! 👀 How is your own doing? What is your favorite part of the writing process, and what is your least favorite? (For me, it's coming up with the summary!)

-Midnight

Hey Midnight! It's nice to hear from you! I'm not so far along with mine unfortunately. I have just finished one for Jimin's birthday and have another story for another Halloween event that I'm in the middle of writing, so I definitely have had a handful recently! Plus I've been kinda busy irl with other hobbies and university, so I don't always have the time or energy to write smh. I currently have the summary and have started writing, but haven't gotten very far. I'm almost done with the set up/ first scene. But I hope to write more soon. Maybe once I finish my first draft of the other Halloween one.

My favorite part of writing is split between coming up with ideas (which happens quite often with me) and writing certain parts of the story. Depending on the scene and story, some parts can be so fun to write, especially the smut, though that can sometimes be hard as well since I don't want it to be too long or too short and want it to be enjoyable for myself and the readers.

My least favorite has to be the editing and writing up the smut warnings since I sometimes forget to write down the warnings as a write so I have to go back through and find everything I need to put down. Editing can be much easier with beta readers since they can notice mistakes I can miss, since I usually don't brush things through with a fine tooth comb and just look for grammatical and sentence structure errors, or I may adjust a think or two occasionally.

I'm rereading RWRB bc ofc I am and I've just finished Chapter 8 - the one where Zahra catches Henry and Alex together and I've got stuck on this underrated exchanged:

'"Would it make any difference at all if I told you not to see him again?”

Alex looks over at Henry, looking rumpled and nauseated and terrified at the corner of the bed. “No."'

It just makes me so soft. Alex is so fucking sure about Henry, but no one (not even Alex himself) understands to what extent yet and idk its just really cute to me. Zahra could literally kill them both and Alex literally couldn't care less; he's more concerned with making sure Zahra (and Henry) knows that there's nothing Zahra (or anyone) can say to him that would stop him from wanting to see Henry. Because Henry is who he wants. Henry is it for him. Henry is worth all this.

Plus I always look at it as a subtle reassurance to Henry who is quite literally terrified at that moment - that not even Zahra finding out would make Alex want to stop seeing him.

God I really hope this exchange is in the movie 🤞🤞🤞
