MAX VERSTAPPEN COMMENTS ON HIS DNF AT THE ITALIAN GRAND PRIX:

[bonvoyagenoona]

I was also there during Day 1 & 2! 🥲 And yes, definitely hoping to see them on tour soon. I'm still praying for it to happen this year. Was hoping I could fly to Seoul next month but with this Covid thing it seems difficult. 😕 Would love to say hi if we're ever at the same time/place again tho!

YOOOO! I'm Filipina too HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA All the voice lessons I did as a child, my mom definitely had me sing at EVERY chance possible. Co-workers are over for dinner? Ruru sings. A cousin from the province she hasn't seen in 20 years (& I have never met) is over, Ruru sings. Next-door neighbour just bought a new MagicSing, Ruru is there 🤣🤣🤣 My karaoke repertoire is filled with older 'karaoke classics' too, Whitney Houston, Mariah Carey, ABBA and of course, Regina Velasquez & Lani Misalucha. I usually start the night Whitney's I Wanna Dance with Somebody to get the people going. Only when the drinks have been drank do I bust out with the big belters 🤣 people are more generous with the applause when they're drunk 🤣🤣

My Vegas trip is getting better and better! A looot more exciting definitely! And yes, come meet us up for karaoke. I know Yoongles will serenade us with some Kim Hyun Sik for sure.

Aaahh hope you'll get to travel to Seoul sooner rather than later! And that your Vegas trip is fun and hilarious enough to tide you over until then! OMG if they do go on tour, and they play somewhere in California, I will definitely try to go see them there as well as where I live, and it would be so fun to say hi! 💜

LOL NO WAY! Hahaha as soon as karaoke came up, I wondered! Please, MagicSing?? And the BIG SONGSTRESS NAMES? I bet you have such a beautiful voice, amazing when you belt their ballads, keeping your parents and all the Titos and Titas entertained as they watch you with such love! Your upbringing? RELATABLE! We're also a Sharon Cuneta household! How many times have you sung "Ikaw"??? I've gotten to at least 50! 😂

Man, you made me so nostalgic for those house parties, and our karaoke night just got a million times better! Keen to throw in some Korean hits with Yoongles' renditions! Do you sing any Korean songs, too? The only ones I have memorized are Lee So Ra's "Song Request" (omg I die fantasizing about singing it while Yoongi raps in the middle) and Taeyang's "Eyes, Nose, Lips", though I bet my pronunciation needs a ton of work!

Haha, oh man, this made me belly laugh and feel such warm feels at the same time! Hoping you've been having a wonderful day. Throw on some Lani or Whitney and belt it out!

[luvdsc]

hey there bub! i was going thru ur masterlist and i saw in the "about" section that u made eye contact with taemin OMG how did that go AAAAA u got to make eye contact with THE lee taemin? soo lucky :") i bet this happened prob awhile back but how was the superm concert? i'm sure it was amazing n so much fun AAAAA sadly they didn't go here in my city :( but i was able to see NCT dream live during their dream show tour and i tell you WHEW GOSH those boys are so ethereal??? like they look so good in vids and in pics but they're 1000000x better in person??? like pictures don't do their beauty justice?? gosh i could write a full on essay abt this. until now i still cant believe i got to see the dreamies live?? its feels so surreal like a dream, its crazy. i remember the lights dimming and 'dear dream' started playing in the background and i just lost it lol i was shaking and bawling my eyes out n the show hasn't even started yet djkfkjn i first noticed jisung n when i saw him the first thing that popped in my mind was: "he is SO tall and he's soso cute dear lord :")" and the way he dances, a frickin dance king?? he's rlly such a born performer. AND OHMYGOD JENO, the man is rlly WOW, ngl he kinda looks intimidating with his sharp features and smooth dance moves but his eye smiles make my heart mELT. i remember during the encore stage, the show was about to end and the boys were saying goodbye to us, jeno's face was showed on screen, he was tryna eat the confetti LMAO. renjun,, i will never shutup abt this but renjun is confirmed to be a FAIRY!! the prettiest boy :") #RENJUNFAIRYAGENDA he has such sharp yet delicate features and his aura is just so warm n comforting like he just captivates u n lures u in, and when he sings, like u can feel the emotion, hes so talented. all throughout the show, hyuck was just GLOWING (lives up to his name, fullsun uwu) . he's soso pretty n he's my bias so i literally was just in awe when i saw him, i was speechless :') he was rlly entertaining to watch n he was also so attentive to the crowd esp when he saw some ppl that got hurt, he kept telling us to move back a little. OMG HOW COULD I FORGET NANA, jaemin was soo sweet n charming and the way his eyes lit up whenever he looks at the crowd gosh my heart was abt to burst he rlly adores czennies :") jskfvkds hes also super tall lmao hyuck was tryna lift his shirt up tho and of course chenle, ngl but all throughout the concert, my eyes just keep coming back to chenle. out of all the dreamies, he caught my eye the most. like,, THE POWER THIS MAN HOLDS IS CRAZY?? THIS MAN DIDNOT COME TO PLAY!! his stage presence is crazyy ohgod esp during 119 performance, and he looks like a prince in real life. he also played the piano and i remember everyone was just in awe as he played like the whole crowd had heart eyes for him. it was such a fun n amazing experience, the boys were so amazing n talented, they rlly know how to put on such a great show. they work tirelessly n they're so good, like their voices and dance moves, srsly amazing :") ++ it so memorable cus it was my first kpop concert hehe. buying tickets were such a pain in the ass ngl it was so stressful but SO worth it 🥺 i knew jisung was tall but i didnt know he was THAT tall, idk if im just small but they all rlly look so tall JKDFSDJVFF sadly mark wasnt there :( sorry if i made this long, i just got excited and i thought it'd be nice to share my concert experience w/ u as well hehe 😅 i hope you're doing great bub!! <3

- 🐼 anon

omg hi yes, i was lucky enough to score tickets to see superm last year, and i was right up against the main stage railing !!! 🤩 so ten made eye contact and smiled at me, baekhyun also made eye contact and smiled and waved at me (he’s my exo bias and i was like the heart clutching meme when he did that), i yelled “you’re doing great sweetie” when taeyong took a pause during commentary time and he said thank you 🤧, and god taem looked at me for a good 20 seconds smiling at me and i couldn’t handle it and had to blink and look away and he laughed at me 😔 akslhflakshdfla but oh my god, lucas is so goddamn attractive irl it’s insane, and ten is sooo so pretty like i didn’t even pay attention to what they were saying during the commentary time sometimes i was just staring at ten who was in front of me and i was the starry eyed emoji (baek and ten were right in front of me, lucas was next to them), and pictures don’t do taeyong justice at all like that man is absolutely ethereal ✨✨  also!!!!! seeing ten perform his solos, hearing taeyong and mark rap irl and of course BASS GO BOOM BY LUCAS BECAME MY ABSOLUTE FAVORITE WHEN ARE THEY RELEASING THAT SONG??? and i was in tears when taemin performed right in front of me like 16 year old me would be shaking in her boots if she knew she would see god taem in the flesh. actually current me was shaking askdjfhalksjdf i cherish all the videos i took so much (i accidentally deleted the entire jopping video except the mark rap part when i was trying to snip it to post to my insta story and cried rip 😭😭)

YOU GOT TO SEE THE DREAMIES IRL OH MY GOD I’M SO JEALOUS 😭😭 I WANNA SEE THEM PERFORM SO BAD!!! i keep rereading your entire experience and i’m living vicariously through you now aklshdflakjsdhfda oh my god, i wanna see jisung and fairy prince renjun perform live so bad 😭 i got to see hyuck perform three times now with 127, and he’s absolutely amazing, i couldn’t stop watching him dance like he’s my number one favorite performer in nct and the way he dances is heavenly and wonderful and his voice is insane 💖 he truly was born to be an idol 🤧💞💞 i want to write a proper response to each of your description of the dreamies but right now i’m just like no thoughts head empty just heart eyes for every single one of those boys 🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸 aaaa thank you for describing them all, angel, i’ll keep this in mind as i write fics :’) omg and this was your first kpop experience???? you’re so lucky!!!! 💓 also i feel with the buying tickets omg i always have to get up early and keep refreshing on every device to get decent tickets and it’s so stressful askljdfhaksd but it definitely is so worth it in the end! my only regret is opting out of seeing skz last year and going to a party instead rip and omg no need to apologize!!! it’s really fun to hear about your concert experiences, sweetpea!!! 💞 thank you for taking the time to share that with me 💘  i’m doing wonderful and enjoying my weekend, and i hope you’re having a good weekend and doing well also, angel 🐝💛✨

Happiness

Title: Happiness Pairing: MonTeam (Y-Destiny) Rating: PG Genre: Romance Summary: Team just wants to make Mon happy 

“Mon let’s go somewhere together” says Team.

“You mean like doing something today?” asks Mon.

“Hmmm today I actually wanted to stay in bed here with you. I meant like go away for the weekend” says Team.

Mon get’s all shy by Team saying he wants to stay in bed with him all day. Team sees it and says “Are you having dirty thoughts”. Mon’s face turns all red and he has no idea how to respond.

“But you didn’t answer my question about going away for the weekend” Team says.

Mon turns his face to look directly at Team and his eyes are all sparkly. “Yes” is all Mon can respond.

Team brings out a bright smile and kisses Mon’s forehead. He still cannot believe he ended up meeting someone like Mon. Being the player back in the days he didn’t think true love would exist. But then Mon appeared in his life. He still regrets hurting him at first. So now Team will show Mon that Mon means the world to him. And taking him on a weekend trip is one of those things.

Obviously they cannot stay in bed all day since they have to go and eat at some point. Team suggests to get some takeout so they don’t have to leave the apartment. Mon is fine with it. Staying in bed a bit longer with Team is never a bad thing.

A while later their food arrives and they have lunch together. Team says that after lunch he will look up some places to go for their trip. Little does Mon know that Team actually already has planned the whole trip.

“Team how far are you with the trip?” asks Mon a while later.

“I actually just finished booking the trip and we will be leaving Friday at 9AM” says Team. “Where are we going Team?” is what Mon wants to know. “That shall remain a secret” says Team. Mon hates secrets so he starts pouting at Team hoping Team will spill something. “Mon look at you being all cute while pouting. How am I able to resist someone like you” says Team. Mon looked all happy that his pouting seems to have worked. Only for Team to respond with “However no matter how cute you are I will not spill anything”.

Mon who is not satisfied with this answer makes a sad face hoping that might draw Team over.

“Aww Mon come here and let me give you a kiss” says Team.

Mon who cannot get enough of Team’s kisses gets up and has already forgotten about wanting to know where they are going.

Day of the weekend away

It’s 9AM and Mon and Team are at the airport. Mon is following Team since he still has no idea where they are going. Mon however isn’t carrying anything since Team insisted he would carry all the luggage. He didn’t want Mon to get tired.

They arrive at the gate and Mon sees the word Phuket. His eyes lit up. He cannot believe Team is taking him to Phuket. He has never been there before. Team is looking at Mon and sees Mon looks like a kid in the candy store after they have gotten their favorite candy. The only thing Team can do is smile.

The flight isn’t that long but Mon is sleeping on the airplane since he had to get up real early.

They arrive a while later.

“What a great day to be here. The weather is great” says Team.

The only thing Mon can do is look around. It’s so pretty here is what Mon thinks.

“What are you thinking Mon? That it’s pretty here? Well it is but not as pretty as you” says Team.

Mon is still not used to Team saying things like that and starts blushing.

“And you are just too cute as well” says Team.

The first thing they do that day is looking for a place to eat since they are pretty hungry. They end up finding a nice restaurant in the village. After lunch Mon says he wants an ice cream. It’s his favorite thing. Team shaking his head as they just had lunch. But if Mon wants an ice cream then Team will get him an ice cream. This trip is about Mon’s happiness only. Nothing else.

The rest of the day is just spent walking around the village. And they decide to have dinner at the same place they had lunch. They head to the apartment Team has rented and decide to watch a movie before going to bed.

While they are in bed all cuddled up “How was today Mon”.

Mon looks at Team and then gives him a kiss on the cheek.

“Today was such a nice day. And the fact that I got to spend it with you made it even better”.

Team raises his hand to ruffle Mon’s hair and says “I am glad to be a part of it”.

The next day

“Team are we going to the beach today? Tell me we are” asks Mon while he is clinging onto Team. The only thing Team can do is laugh.

“You are such a little kid here. But yes we are going to the beach today” says Team.

Mon cannot hold his excitement. He has never been to the beach. His parents never had a lot of money so trips to the sea were out of the question.

The day at the beach was a whole lot of fun. Mon had the best day of his life. Just as they arrive back at the apartment the sky starts to get dark. “Let’s get inside Mon” says Team.

When they are inside Team suggests to watch another movie and they get all snuggled up on the couch. Not long after a flash lights up the room and a loud bang is heard.

“TEAM WHAT WAS THAT” says Mon, all scared. Mon has always been afraid of thunder and lightning.

“It seems we are having a thunderstorm. Don’t worry Mon we are inside and I am here with you”.

Just as Team said that another flash appears and suddenly all lights go out.

“TEAMMMMMM” screams Mon, while he starts crying.

Team hugs Mon tighter while he caresses his hair.

“Shhhh it’s okay. Just hold onto me” says Team.

Thankfully the storm didn’t seem to last that long. After it stopped Team lit some candles to light up the room. He then went back to Mon.

Mon who still is a bit shaken then says to Team “I am sorry for acting this way. I feel like such a coward”.

Team is a little bit taken back by what Mon says.

“Mon you aren’t a coward. There’s nothing wrong with being afraid of something”.

Mon however isn’t 100% assured and doesn’t dare to look at Team.

“Mon look at me please” says Team.

Mon then looks up only to lock eyes with Team.

Team raises his hand and places his hand on the side of Mon’s cheek.

“You don’t need to hide who you are. Showing you are afraid only makes you human”. And with that Team leans in and gives Mon a kiss.

“Let’s go to sleep” says Team after the kiss.

The last day

It’s the last day and Team has it all planned. Tonight they will have a romantic dinner at candle light. But before that they will have a sightseeing tour through the province of Phuket. Mon watches his eyes out. So many pretty places. He cannot believe Team took him here. It almost feels like a dream and that he is about to wake up.  

“Are you hungry already Mon? I booked us a seat at this great restaurant” says Team.

Mon nods. He is definitely hungry.

They arrive and the waiter brings them to their table. It’s somewhere at the back.

“Wow” says Mon.

“You like it here” asks Team.

“I cannot believe you took me to a place like this” says Mon.

They sit down and order their food. While they are waiting for their food Team starts talking.

“Mon I wanna tell you a couple things”.

Mon looks at Team and wonders what this is about.

“Mon, when I first met/saw you I felt all sorts of feelings I never felt before. They confused me. For me love didn’t exist. All I had where one night stands and bets with my friends about how quick I could have someone to fall for me. Only to dump them the next day for someone else. That’s how my life was. So at first I tried to push away these feelings and act like you were also just like the other guys I had. But then when we actually spent the night together it felt different. You made me feel something. You made me feel loved. Then the next day when I found out what my friend had said to you I was so upset. That wasn’t supposed to happen. I knew I had to do everything I could to get your trust back. To get the guy back that I guess it seems I was waiting for my whole life”.

“Mon I am so glad you gave me a second chance. I don’t know what I would have done without you. You light up my life. You make my life worth living for”.

Mon cannot believe what Team is all saying. No one has said those things to him before. And Mon cannot hold it anymore. He starts to cry.

“Mon what is going on. Did I say something wrong. Did I hurt you?” asks Team while taking a hold of Mon’s hand.

Team is panicking at the sight of Mon crying. This wasn’t supposed to happen.

Mon then get’s of his chair and walks over to Team to sit on his lap.

“Team, I never thought true love existed either. I always thought it was something that only happened in dreams. And then when you made a move on me I couldn’t believe it. Only for it to be crushed the next day. I was so hurt. Why did I have to fall in love? You never gave up tho. At first I was hesitant to give you a second chance. I didn’t want to get hurt again. But you showed me I didn’t need to be afraid anymore. These tears are just tears of happiness. Of hearing someone saying things to me I never heard before. I am glad to be in your life Team”.

Team raises his hand to wipe away the tears on Mon’s face.

“Mon promise me you stay with me forever” says Team.

“I’ll promise” says Mon.

And with that Team kisses Mon.

[neo-nymph]

NCT NSFW: KUN

Goddamnit I fucking love Kun :’)

A – Aftercare

May or may not know exactly what to do. He tries tho.

Another member I see being soft afterward and really just wants to cuddle more than anything. Doesn’t want you sleeping in a messy state so he gives you a warm bath. Takes off your make-up (if any of it survived), fixes your hair the best he can, moisturizes you skin, all that cute shit. Asks if you want anything else; water, a snack, cuddles, etc. If not he’ll just throw on the tv and hold you til you fall asleep

B – Body part

On you, maybe your hands. Not for any particular reason, he just likes playing with them randomly and feeling them on his chest when you hug him from behind.

Oh himself, probably him arms. They’re not too big, not too small. Just the perfect amount of definition.  

C – Cum

Pulls out purely so he can shoot his cum on your pussy. Literally rubs it around your lips like his dick is a paintbrush. I can see him being into creampies as well. Not really into having it anywhere else cause he’s not a fan of the mess.

D – Dirty Secret

Step-sibling porn; wouldn’t tell anyone cause he doesn’t wanna seem like a creep. This sounds so basic and common but I can see this being his go-to category.

E – Experience

Not a virgin but not super experienced. Likely slept with 2 maybe 3 women so he knows the basics but could still use some guidance.

F – Favorite Position

You riding him; his hands are gripping your hips and his eyes are glossing over every bit of you there is to see. He loves to lay underneath you as it gives him the perfect view of everything. Your pussy sliding up and down his slick length, your breasts bouncing and jiggling about, the expressions on your pleading face. It’s like he has a front row seat to the show you put on especially for him.

G – Goofy

He is leading up to the act. When your kissing and taking off clothes he’s probably a giggly mess smiling into his kisses and such. Leads a little bit into foreplay with some corny compliments to make you blush but not much past that point.

H – Hair

Trims when he has time cause he prefers it over a bush but doesn’t really make it a priority. Gets a clean shave on special occasions like valentines days or your anniversary just to be extra. Likes when you have a clean shave just cause he finds it cute and likes how smooth it feels on his face and lips but doesn’t ever actually ask you to shave.

I – Intimacy  

He’s a little awkward cause he doesn’t have a ton of experience but he really does try his best to make you feel good. Things get pretty steamy (literally, yall are both sweaty after). Very sensual with a lot of wandering hands and pants. Lots of open mouth kisses.

The type to believe sex is the most connected way of showing intimacy, so he tries his hardest to focus on making you feel good first, but sometimes he gets lost in how snug and tight you are around him. Whenever this happens he loses his sense of control and thrusts a bit harder than normal, eyes shut and jaw tight. All he can think about is how good you feel until you grab his wrist and pull him out of his fantasy. Then he’s back to focusing on you.

Non-sexual intimacy would mostly consist of back hugs and snuggles. You’ll be in the kitchen or the bathroom just doing whatever and he’ll wrap his arms around you from behind, resting his face in the warmth of your neck and leaving some gentle kisses. Other times will appear more nonchalant, like holding you close when you're watching a movie. It might not seem like much from someone else’s perspective, but to him, sitting there underneath blankets with his cheek being tickled by your hair, listening to your laughs with your head on his chest is where he feels most in love with you.

J – Jack-Off

Not too often, just as much as anyone else I feel. Possibly more just cause sometimes he doesn’t wanna ask you to help him out if the mood isn’t right. Like if it’s cold out and you’re cuddling while watching a cute movie he’ll excuse himself to the bathroom cause he doesn’t wanna ruin such an adorable moment.

Gets off to common porn, like step-siblings, college girls, solo girls, etc. Mostly goes for videos of you on his phone tho.

K – Kink

Light BDSM. Tying your hands behind you or using something to gag you. Likes hearing your moans muffled and watching you struggle with your arms bind from use, especially when you ride him. It gives him that little bit of control and confidence he needs to get a little bolder and more rough.

L – Limits

Kun is curious but not that adventurous. He’d go along with some of the more basic thrills, not too far past the line of vanilla, but I don’t think he’d be willing to do anything crazier than some roleplay and light bdsm.

M – Motivation (Turn-On)

Sexting in public. Doesn’t matter if you’re in the same room or on opposite sides of the planet. If you send him risky photos with disregard to the fact that he’s in a meeting he gets fired up in less than a minute. He won’t even try to stop you, he encourages you in fact. The risk and taboo of the situation, watching videos of you with your hands in your panties across the table from his boss, demanding you show him just a little bit more, send thrills down his spine like nothing else.  

N – NO (Turn-Off)

Being called Daddy. Outside of the bedroom he’ll laugh at it and throw you a scolding look but he’s not all that into it in a sexual light at all.  

O – Oral

Giving: Soft and gentle. Put your thighs over his shoulders, holds one of your hands while the other plays with your boob. Starts with fat licks just to taste you and warm things up, squeezing your boob in this hand. Then moves on to flicking your clit with the tip of his tongue and sucking on it A LOT. He’s not sure what else to try, but your moaning at his actions spurs him on to continue what he’s doing. Abandons your boob to toy with your clit until you cum but holds your hand the whole time

Receiving: Not sure what to do with his hands. Kinda pets your hair and just watches you with half closed eyes. Might hold your hair out of the way but does it real loose and gentle. Lots of little pants, trying not to be too loud. Groans when he starts getting close and trips over his words when trying to tell you he’s close. Tries not to buck his hips and make you gag but fails. Doesn’t mind if you choose to spit or swallow.  

P – Place

9/10 it’s in the bedroom. Too nervous to do it anywhere that isn’t the dorm or your place. You could maybe persuade him to let you give him a blow job in the bathroom of a public place but he’ll be on edge the whole time.

As for in the house, shower sex occurs every now and then when one of you is feeling frisky or spontaneous. Also on the couch, when you two are home alone; say a sexy scene comes on during a movie, or your ass just feels too perfect on his lap and he can’t wait long enough to get you into the bedroom. 

Q – Quickie  

Not too often. Only in some risky situations that you drag him into if you get him really riled up. *See risk for further explanation*

R – Risk  

The riskiest thing he’ll do it the sexting/watching your videos in public and jacking off in the bathroom as a result. He’ll never be the one to initiate it, but he can’t resist you enough to say no if you want to get dirty in the dorms while the members are home, or blow him in an empty studio or conference room at SM. If he’s super horny or frustrated tho he’ll have a quickie with you in the studio/conference room.

S – Stamina

Maybe 2 rounds

T – Toys  

He’d wear a cock ring if you asked but nothing other than that

U – Unfair [Teasing/Being teased]

Kun isn’t one to tease simply cause he’s not that into the whole begging thing. You could get away with teasing him tho. He hates it when you drag your nails along his length, teasing his tip with the light swipe of your tongue and a peck of your lips, pulling him further and further to the edge just to leave him in agony. Doesn’t have it in him to kill your fun or whip that evil little grin off your face tho. He’ll plead for you to stop with a sad laugh but doesn’t really put forth any effort for you to stop. Once you’re done tho you can bet he’s gonna get more than just a little rough

V – Volume  

Pretty quiet. Doesn’t make a ton of noise other than some loud-ish pants and grunts. Doesn’t talk much either, maybe an “oh god” here and there.

W – Wild Card [Author’s Choice]

I feel like he’s low key a perv.

Wouldn’t be surprised if he’s passing the bathroom one day while your changing with the door cracked open and he stops to watch you and jacks off without you knowing. If he comes home and hears you masturbating you can bet he’s gonna watch you from the door and rub himself until you’re done.

Probably has a folder of NSFW photos and videos of you in his phone for when you guys are apart. Really into you sending him naughty photos and videos of yourself.

X – X-Ray [Dick Size]

Like 5 or 6 inches. Reasonably thick, not too much of a stretch but it’s there.

Y – Yearning [Sex Drive]

Not crazy. Sex happens like 2-3 times a week. Even when he’s on tour he doesn’t get urges very often. Probably only when you send him something scandalous.

Z – Zzz [After Sex]

Honestly I don’t think he’ll be sleepy after unless it’s late at night. He’ll probably be up for a while afterward but doesn’t really have the energy to do anything other than watch a movie. He’ll fall asleep 1 or 2 hours later.

chapter one: bad limp

Beverly Marsh doesn’t trust men – most of them, at least. The only men she does trust are her good friends: Richie Tozier, Eddie Kaspbrak, and Mike Hanlon.

She and Richie had grown up across the street from one another, and he was the only kid who adamantly stuck by her side through the hells of elementary, middle, and high school in their small town of Derry, Maine. They were both the outcasts there from the get go. A kid who was too talkative for his own good, a boy who came out proudly bisexual in middle school, a teen who couldn’t sit still for the life of him; paired with a kid who had bruises on her body everyday, a girl who learned men looked at her wrong at too young of an age, a teen who got slut shamed for very untrue rumors. Then college came, and the two hauled ass to New York City to go to college, sharing a shitty one bedroom apartment and working hellish hours to scrape by. They didn’t go to the same university, though; Richie went to NYU for four years in drama and then went a different route of standup comedy while Beverly went to a smaller college to get a cosmetology degree.

Those years, they met Eddie Kaspbrak and Mike Hanlon. Eddie was at the same college Beverly went to on way to become a Science teacher, and they both worked at a crappy coffee place. They got along extremely well and after a while she introduced him to Richie, the two beginning their marriage-like bickering instantly. It was no surprise to Beverly when they got together in their second year of college. The feisty young man complemented their duo extremely well from the get-go, officially making them into an inseparable trio in no time. Then comes in Mike Hanlon, a sweet boy who grew up on a farm and who was on his way to become the best veterinarian known to man. ("I'm not gonna be the best one, guys, chill." - "Well, we think you will be.") He was Eddie’s room mate and about the time Eddie and Richie started dating was when Mike got pulled in, making their group an even four. Beverly had been hesitant at the time. Her father and every man back home made her wary of how men and boys would be towards her, her own boyfriend no help to that thought process at all, but Mike was quick to prove her wrong. He didn’t stare at her as if she were a piece of meat – hell, he still doesn’t, and neither do the other two (for obvious reasons) – and he’s never anything but gentle.

And then there’s Tom.

How she ended up with a nearly carbon copy of her father as a boyfriend during college is beyond her. He looked harmless back then, Bev remembers; he charmed her way into her life, making her believe everything was fine, but then slowly started manipulating different situations and raising his hand at her and verbally threatening her. She should’ve gotten out of it sooner but something kept her there with the asshole; something kept her from telling her friends, coming up with lame excuses as to why another bruise had formed on her wrist.

Fast forward some years. The even four graduated – Tom, too – and Richie beings to work his ass off to get gigs and all for his stand up comedy career that hopefully won't flop, and Eddie’s searching for assistant teaching jobs, and Beverly is working at really nice hair salon that pays well, and Mike is in Veterinary School. And she’s still with Tom; her friends are starting to catch on, if they hadn’t before. A few more years down the line, Richie gets a big break (okay not that big, but it's a break nonetheless), and somehow becomes extremely popular among the teens after his tweet about his cute but angry chihuahua like boyfriend. Eddie has been an assistant teacher for a couple years now and getting ready to become just a regular teacher; and Mike’s out of Veterinary School, and Bev’s opening up her own salon after a two year business program at a community college. She’s still dating Tom.

Until she’s not. At 26, Beverly has had enough. After nearly seven or eight years of something she grew up enough with because of her father, she gains the courage to finally stand up again to her another abusive man in her life. The other three finally knew the entire truth and with their help and pep talks and comforting words and hugs, Beverly stands up for herself. She dumps Tom. A fight ensues. She acquired a few new bruises and he expects her still in their shared apartment when he comes home from work. But when he’s gone, through tears and cries, she packs up everything. Literally everything. And then she’s getting in the crappy Honda she’s had since her first year in college with all of her belongings and driving to Richie’s and Eddie’s house just a little bit away. They aren't there, though. Richie is on a mini tour for a month and to because it was the summer and to celebrate the fact someone hired him as an actual teacher for the upcoming school year, Eddie tagged along.

Beverly doesn’t trust men, and the full reason why hits her like a train as she sits in her best friend’s and his boyfriend’s home, alone and honestly a bit scared. It makes her sad thinking over how much she loves and trusts three guys with her life, but two harmful men and the disgusting, predatory looks from other men out weighs her best friends’ good intentions. As she sits there, suitcases haphazardly pushed into the living room and body sore, she wonders if she should go to the doctor. It’s only a few bruises and a busted lip, though. Eddie, if he knew, would be fussing over her and dragging her out of the house in an instant to get her checked on from worry – the opposite of what his mother did constantly to him as a child.

The redhead chuckles at the thought of the Kaspbrak fretting over her, but then a few tears are leaving her eyes and suddenly she’s crying again, and wanting to call one of her boys, but she can’t. She doesn’t want to. Not yet, anyway. Richie’s having too much fun, Eddie’s enjoying his break, Mike is already working, having a good time while doing so. They didn’t need to worry over her while they’re living their lives to the fullest.

A bark interrupts her thought process and she blinks, confused for a split second until she remembers Sid. A black lab with too much energy for her own good, just a little over a year old. Richie and Eddie had gotten Sid when she was four months old. They almost didn’t get her all because they weren't sure how often they'd get to spend with the puppy. Both are home more often than they thought, though still both of their jobs restrain them from spending the amount of time they want with the puppy - less often than they first thought, though. Thankfully, both Mike and Bev are available more often than not, Bev the most. They help take care of Sid when the couple can’t, which honestly isn't that much, and the adorable dog has somehow formed into everyone’s pet over time with how often they're all at the Tozier-Kaspbrak house.

Bev wipes under her eyes and cheeks, wincing at her palm pushes into the bruise on her cheek too hard, and makes her way through the house to the back door. She peers outside to the fenced backyard and sees Sid near the back, tail up and ears perked; on high alert. The dog probably heard something she didn't like, or maybe saw a squirrel. Beverly opens the door after she unlocks it, and one hand rests on the door frame.

“Sid!” She shouts to get the dogs attention. “C’mere, girl!” Sid yaps and runs to Beverly instantly, and the woman’s laughing a bit as she crouches down, the dog attacking her with licks. Beverly pets the dog in return and moves to sit on her butt. “Hey, girl. You missed me, huh? I was just here yesterday, though, before your dads left. You miss them, too? Hm, I bet. I do. Yeah, I do, and they miss you, no doubt about it. C’mon, hey- oof, let me stand up, girl. Sid- Okay, thank you. Hey, can you sit? I’ll give you treat! Good girl, let me take a picture.”

Beverly snaps a picture of Sid, the black lab’s tongue hanging out the side of her mouth as she pants, floppy ears forward and dark eyes wide. She quickly sends the picture to Eddie, paired with a text of heart and dog emojis and ‘she misses u!’. She then ushers Sid inside, brows furrowing when she thinks she sees the dog limping, but it was hard to tell. She quickly finds the dog treats in the kitchen pantry, and feeds Sid one right as she gets a reply from her friend.

[from: coffee buddy 11:49 am MNFK SHES SO CUTESJDK I MISS HER TOO GIVE HER LOVE SOME LOVE FOR US]

[to: coffee buddy 11:50 am i'll be sure to give her all the love dw ur pretty lil head]

[from: dipshit 11:52 am SID!!!!!!! THE CUTEST!!!!!!!!!! THANK U FOR UR SERVICE BEV]

[to: dipshit 11:52 am mwah ur welcome rich x]

She smiles at their reactions. It's cute and something she's seen a thousand times throughout the year they've had Sid. One time, she had watched and listened to Richie gush over Sid sleeping with her head in Eddie's lap, his boyfriend drifting off to sleep as well. Unfortunately, that memory ends with Tom calling her and demanding her home for the night, cutting the friends' fun night together short.

Beverly finds herself frowning at the memory and doesn't bother to keep track of Sid as she wanders throughout the house. The young woman stays in the kitchen, her mood coming back down. She brushes stands of her long hair out of her face, her features scrunching up in disgust. She hates it long. Hates the way it gets the way and how she always has to do something with it, always having to get tangles out at the ends. Tom loves her long hair though, and after some persuasion back in college, Beverly grew it out again and kept it at the same mid-back length. Her stomach churns with the realization her father liked her hair long, too. It was the reason she chopped it all off in the first place. Self-hate settles in her, and she can feel the tears coming back as she leans against the counter when her phone starts ringing again. She jumps. The irrational part of her brain is telling her that the caller is Tom, that he somehow found out that she left home while at work, and he's coming over to drag her back. The other part - the rational part - knows that can't be it.

With shaky hands, she pulls her phone back out. Relief floods through her at seeing the familiar number of one of her clients. She sighs and presses the green dot on the screen before putting it on speaker. It was Audra Phillips, a wonderful woman around her age that started coming to Beverly's own salon the moment it opened, always complimenting Bev's work and saying how the redhead should be a renowned stylist for hair, makeup and clothes. "Hi, Audra," she greets, hoping her voice doesn't give off the fact that she had been close to crying.

"Beverly, hi!" Audra greets, happy. If she can tell something is up, she doesn't say anything. "I was just wondering if we're still on for one today? It's just- I'm busy these next couple days and there's a court case Friday, and I really don't want to look like shit. The split ends are bad. And it's my first one, y'know?"

"Of course, yeah," Beverly does her best to sound up beat. "I was actually just about to leave to get everything ready." It's a lie, but the other woman doesn't need to know that. Until Audra called, Beverly's mind had completely pushed away her one o'clock appointment, too engrossed into the early morning fight with Tom and her leaving without his knowledge.

"Wonderful! You are a life saver, Marsh, I fucking love you."

A genuine smile reaches her lips. "It's truly no problem, Audra. I'll see you at one."

They hang up, and Beverly goes to the bathroom after fishing her makeup bag from one of her suitcases. She stares at herself, taken back by the appearance. The bruise on her cheek is worse than she thought, and she had dried blood she didn't know about on her chin from the cut on her lip. Her striking blue eyes are bloodshot and rimmed red from crying on and off throughout the morning, and her bright red hair was a bird's nest. She is a complete and utter mess, and she has no idea how to make it seem like she isn't. But she does her best for the next ten minutes; she covers up the bruise with ease, and does her make up to where the only indication of her crying are the bloodshot eyes. She tames her hair to the best of her ability and just throws it into a ponytail. She keeps what she's already wearing on - a tee from Disney World that she got a some years back when she and her three friends were all free of school - with light skinny jeans and converse. Then, she puts Sid back outside in the backyard, grabs her keys, makes sure the doors are all locks and that the lights are off, and finally leaves.

"-and I've always wanted to start a fashion line. Or do something with fashion, and make up too, which is why I started that- that...what's the word? Oh, well, that thing where people can make appointments for getting their makeup and hair done for dates, or prom, or whatever - oh, a bundle! The two in one. Gosh, I'm the owner and can't even fucking remember these things correctly," Beverly says, wincing as she remembers that she's talking to a customer. "Sorry for my language."

Audra chuckles from where she sits directly in front of Beverly, the woman behind her snipping away at her now wet hair. "You know I don't care about your language, Bev, keep on with it. And don't down talk yourself, sweetie, everyone forgets things."

They meet eyes in the mirror and share a smile. Audra has been at the salon for some time now. Beverly washed the other woman's hair before actually starting to cut it, per Audra's request. During that time they had conversed about a million and one things, leaving one conversation to go to another only to jump back to a topic that had long since been forgotten when one of them remembered something else. It was nice, Beverly had to admit. It was getting her mind off of that morning.

"Would you add fashion if you could? To the bundle - making a three in one deal."

Beverly's brows knit together as she thinks about it. Then, "Most likely. I think it would be hard to do, though. I don't think fashion is one of my strong suits, and... I dunno, the makeup deal probably won't last too much longer and I doubt the fashion thing would, either."

Audra snorts with a roll of her eyes. "You are one of the most talented women I know with all of this," she tells Beverly, hands moving under the cape. "I've never been disappointed once, and the make up you do for the prom and special events are fucking fantastic! Your fashion sense is off the charts when you dress up; hell, even when you dress down. You have the potential to do all three, Bev. What's holding you back?" The question is quieter, filled with so much care; and her other words are full of sincerity. It has Beverly faltering her movements.

She licks her lips. She knows what's holding her back. "Tom," she says simply as she quickly goes back to doing Audra's hair, and she hopes it doesn't sound as bitter and fearful as it felt. "He's always been supportive of this - of the hair salon - but he's always...apprehensive about the makeup. And then about the fashion, he's just so against it."

"What do men know?" Audra asks. "And what does Tom even do?"

"He works at some small business. A financial analysis."

"He's just jealous. Scared, maybe, of you turning out better than him. God, men are so...ugh."

"There are a few decent ones out there," Beverly says, thinking of her friends. A large smile tugs at her lips. "My best friends. Richie's annoying as all fuck, but he's genuinely caring when he wants to be. Usually to his boyfriend, and me. We grew up together, so we're basically siblings. Then there's Eddie - Richie's boyfriend. A damn firecracker. A bit crazy. A mother hen, at times. Oh, and Mike! He's probably the most genuine, nice guy I know. He's over six feet, and Rich calls him a gentle giant. I'd call him the perfect guy, but he loves pranks, and he and Rich get into a prank war three times a year and they drag Eddie and me into them too. They're not perfect - not by a long shot - but they're the most decent guys I know. I doubt there's any 'perfect guy'."

Audra's quiet for a moment. "I'm surprised you didn't put Tom in there."

Beverly's jaw clenches for a moment. "Why would I put my ex in a list of good men?" She says in a casual way and hopes that it doesn't cause dramatic reactions from those around her. It does. Her regulars and few employees know of her and Tom. It was clear no one likes him, and Bev knows that maybe they figured out something had been wrong about the relationship, but she always painted Tom as a good guy to others despite the bruises littering her skin and his harsh words towards her even in public. Audra's jaw drops and Beverly stops snipping the hair and moved her arms to her sides just in time as Audra turned around, and she sets the scissors on a flat surface. A gasp is heard across the building, and Bev turns her head to see her good friend and employee, Kay McCall, standing a few chairs away, getting ready for another customer.

"Did he dump you?" Audra asks, almost sounding hesitant to do so.

Beverly looked back at her, and then at Kay who is walking over at the speed of lightning. "I... Actually, I dumped him," she says slowly. "This morning." It almost feels wrong telling the girls first instead of her best friends first, but there's a sense of relief that comes with telling someone and Bev figures that the boys won't mind.

Kay squeals and pulls Beverly into a tight hug. "Oh, my god, I thought you'd never get rid of that ass!" She pauses and pulls away, keeping her hands on her friend's shoulders. A serious yet excited expression sits on her face. "I know it's no surprise I don't like him, okay, I'm sorry. I know you loved him too but, babe, that boy was a total whack job! He gave me the fucking creeps!"

Audra is nodding along. "I wanted to say something, but we're not that close, y'know? And I didn't wanna piss you off accidentally."

"I honestly thought you were gonna end up marrying him. It was, like, my worst fear the longest time," Kay admits. Her hands finally leave Beverly's shoulders.

"Mine too." Beverly takes in their looks, and she wants to take the words back but it's too late. She doesn't want to tell them what he's done, it's too early and too fresh to tell someone out right, so she doesn't. "I stopped loving him, is all," she lies. But, it's not really a lie. "I felt obligated to stay in the relationship, I guess. Probably a bit scared, too, because we've been together since the end of my second year of college. I finally just ripped off the band-aid this morning."

Audra smiles softly. "Long ones are the hardest to end."

Kay nods in agreement. "Yeah. Hey, I've got a pullout at my apartment if you need a place to stay. I know you two were living together."

Beverly shakes her head. "Thanks, but I'm good for now. Rich and Eddie are out of the city for a month, and I'm already visiting there to dog sit. Might as well house sit, too. I'll call if I decide to take you up on that offer, though."

They share a few more words - not much at all, though - and soon Beverly is back to Audra's hair, and Kay is walking up front where a new customer is stepping in. She licks lips, feeling how chapped they are, and her nose scrunches the slightest bit as her tongue went over the cut. She had forgotten about it, and at remembering it she is grateful that neither Audra nor Kay asked about it. She doesn't know what she would have come up with if they did.

+++

The rest of the day consisted of Beverly having a few more customers, going to the grocery store because she knows for a fact that Richie and Eddie have zero food at their house, walking around fearful, and finally getting to the Tozier-Kaspbrak residence with the sun completely gone because apparently shopping and driving takes a lot longer than she realizes. She keeps the doors locked and lets Sid roam around as she puts up the groceries - she was right, they had no food - and later feeds Sid, noticing that the limp she thought she saw that morning is, in fact, a limp and it looked the slightest bit worse. After dinner, and after letting Sid outside for a few minutes to use the bathroom, Beverly's phone starts to ring and ring, and ping continuously, messages and missed calls from Tom keeping the device occupied. She waits, but the messages and calls come in nearly every second. Every minute. She wants to call someone - Mike, Richie, Kay, Eddie, anyone but Tom - but she can't pick up the phone, because that means looking at her messages. She knows it's not going to happen, but that doesn't stop her from feeling as if even if she touched the phone Tom would find out where she is like some telepathic demon from Hell.

It's not until she's hearing her own wheezing when it dawns on her that she's having a panic attack over the stupid fucking calls and text messages, curling in on herself against one of the kitchen walls, cheeks wet and make up smudged because of her tears. She hasn't had one in years, not since her first year in college, which is a surprise in and of itself given who she's been dating. Her mind struggles to grasp at what to do - its been eight years - but once she remembers, Beverly does her best to do it. It takes time, much longer than she would like to admit, but she soon calms down. Her hands stop shaking, and her cheeks are starting to dry, and her phone is silent too. Sid is laying a few feet away, staring. Worried. Beverly sniffles. Shakily, she stands and the young dog moves her head up in a flash, eyes trained on Beverly as the young woman moves across the kitchen. Sid then quickly gets up and limps to where she's right beside Bev.

Her eyes squeeze shut as she unlocks her phone to avoid looking at the missed calls and unread texts, and it makes her want to throw up as she does it but she blocks Tom's number, erases the messages and makes the missed calls notifications go away.

Then, she's going to bed in the guest room, exhausted. Sid is at her feet in the bed when she's supposed to be in her bog bed and kennel, but Beverly doesn't care. Rich and Eddie don't have to know, anyway. She's too relaxed. She feels too safe with Sid there. So, she lets Sid stay there, eventually falling asleep.

+++

It's halfway through the morning when Beverly notices Sid is heavily favoring her right front leg as she plays without a care in the world in the backyard. It concerns her, worries her, so she calls the nearest vet and places an appointment at two - and coincidentally, it's the one Mike works at. She doesn't call her two best friends yet, not wanting to worry them in case nothing is wrong. She doesn't go into work. She doesn't want to, simply put, so she doesn't. She's the owner, anyway, and goes in whenever she pleases; the fact that she had no one specifically ask for her on that day was another reason Bev doesn't go in, and she knows the employees can handle themselves. She takes a nice, warm, long shower and brings Sid inside around noon. Then she has lunch, and as the time for Sid's appointment rolls closer, she changes into Nike shorts and the same t-shirt she wore the day before, uncaring of who saw her in it yesterday. She's still emotionally drained from the night before, so it surprises her that she didn't walk out in sweats and a hole-y shirt.

The drive to the vet is fine. Sid stays in the backseat, constantly moving into different positions and standing to look between the front seats, even though her front leg is probably hurting her. Upon reaching the vet clinic, the hope of seeing Mike rises, and she gets out with Sid quickly, locking her car, and then goes inside. It’s not long at all until she’s sitting in one of the back rooms waiting for someone to come in and check on Sid. Not too soon later, the door is opening and she’s hoping it’s Mike, but it’s not. She tries not to look too disappointed, though it wasn’t hard at all given as the guy who walks in is attractive.

She blinks, taking in the dirty blond hair and soft brown eyes; he’s tall, too – about Richie’s or Mike’s height – and at first Beverly, admittedly, tensed up. Here’s a guy who she doesn’t know and therefore doesn’t trust, and her first thought is that he’s going to say something her. To try and flirt. To seem as if he’s this perfect dude trying to win Bev over for a hookup. But then he’s giving her a warm smile before crouching down to Sid who’s jumping in excited at seeing a new person, and she suddenly feels bad for jumping to conclusions.

“Hey,” the guy laughs as Sid licks his face. “You’re a friendly one, aren’t you? Who’ve we got here today?” He’s then looking at Bev and standing up.

Beverly twists the leash in her hands. “That’s Sid. Um, she has a bad limp, and I just got worried.”

He nods and looks back down to the dog, who’s now laying on the floor at his feet, panting as she stares up at him. “Yeah, I noticed it when I walked in. It’s pretty significant. If you don’t mind, I’ll take her to weigh her out there. We’ll be right back.”

“Yeah, yeah. That’s fine, do what you gotta do,” she says. “I’ve never been to a vet before. Sid’s not mine, she’s my friend’s. I’m just dog sitting while he and his boyfriend are outta town. I figured I should bring her myself in case something is actually seriously wrong.”

He smiles as he slips the vet’s leash on Sid with ease, and unclasps the other off of her collar. “That's nice of you to do.”

“I'd do anything for my friends.” Beverly sets the leash in her lap, giving a tiny smile. “She pulls a lot, by the way. Just a warning,” she tells the man.

He nods. “It’s fine. Be back in a jiff,” he tells her and then he’s out of the room with Sid, the dog excitedly walking and pulling. Beverly chuckles and leans back in the chair, blue eyes looking at the framed picture on the wall. It’s an illustration of different types of dogs and their names and where they originally came from.

She’s about to stand up to get a better look when the guy and Sid come back in. He walks the dog to her and lets her reattach the leash before removing the vet’s leash. “How much does she weigh?” Bev asks, curious, frowning at how Sid is favoring her leg.

“Thirty pounds,” he says.

“That’s good, right?”

He nods. “Yes, it is. Female labs usually get up to between twenty-five and thirty-two.”

Bev smiles and pets Sid. “Well, you’re a healthy girl, huh? Other than your leg.” She looks up at the guy, and he’s already looking at her with an expression she can’t read. Its similar to the one Richie gives her once in a while when he’s in a particularly loving mood towards everyone; but there’s something about this guy’s expression that’s so different from it at the same time. There’s no lust, no want, no desire. Almost admiration, if she has to label it. It’s a look she’s not used to, to say the least, and she has to look away and back down to Sid. “So, are you going to check her out, or is there some big shot vet doc that has to come in?” She asks. “Dr. Doolittle, maybe?”

He seems to jolt back into reality at the question, and if Bev were to look up she would see his cheeks reddening. “Huh- oh, yeah. I’m just- just an intern here, trying to get my foot in the door before I finally become a veterinarian myself. No Dr. Doolittle, though.”

Beverly chuckles and looks up. “Shame. I’d pay some real money to have Dr. Doolittle here.”

He smiles, still blushing a little. “I’d pay to be Dr. Doolittle.” Then, “I’ll go get the ‘big shot vet doc’.” He uses air quotes as he uses the words Beverly had said moments before, chuckling lightly as she rolls her eyes with no malice behind the action.

“Alright. Oh- hey, uh,” she hesitates, “I’m Beverly Marsh, by the way. I should’ve introduced myself sooner. Sorry.”

He shakes his head. “Don’t worry about it. I’m Ben Hanscom. I’ll be right back with the doctor, Beverly.”

As he leaves, she can’t help but feel a bit embarrassed about just introducing herself like that so abruptly, but she pushes the feeling away. A few minutes later, the guy – Ben, and she can’t help but think how well the name suits him – walks in with the doctor. They check on Sid, have her walk around for a few seconds, and then the doctor is explaining that nothing seems wrong.

“There isn’t any swelling or cuts or broken bones, so it’s probably just a bad sprain. Nothing too bad, thankfully, but you’ll have to restrict how much she plays for it to get better. I’ll prescribe her some pain medication that you’ll give her once a day for seven days. If it’s not better by this day next week, I suggest bringing her back. It’ll most likely require surgery if that’s the case.”

Beverly nods along to the words and takes the information in, planning on calling Richie once she leaves to explain everything to him. After that, both the doctor and Ben are leaving again, Ben coming back five minutes later with a small, blue pill bottle.

“Give her one forth of these everyday, and it should help,” Ben tells her as he hands the bottle to her. “I hope she gets better. She’s such a sweetheart.”

Beverly stands and holds the pill bottle with one hand, and Sid’s leash with the other. “Me too. Thank you, by the way.”

He sheepishly smiles and shrugs. “I barely did a thing. It’s all the doctor.”

She chuckles. “Well, thank her too for me. Hey, do you know a Mike Hanlon?”

He nods quickly. “Yeah, he’s another intern for one of the other doctors here.”

“Is he here?”

“Yeah. But he’s helping with a surgery on a sick cat. Why?”

She shrugs. “He’s one of my friends. I was expecting to see him, is all.”

“Sorry to disappoint.”

Beverly frowns but then smiles, shaking her head as she gets ready to leave. “You’re not a disappointment, Ben. You seem like a cool guy, and it was nice meeting you.”

He’s then giving her another warm smile, and he’s blushing again. “Thanks. It was nice to meet you, too. And Sid, of course.”

Beverly then says a bye with a smile of her own and she walks out of the back room, and to the front. She pays, not minding having to, and walks out with her phone pressed to ear as she calls Richie, explaining what’s wrong and what’s happening with Sid as she drives home. She doesn’t mention the breakup or Ben just yet. She doesn’t want to think about either too much, and telling her best friend about both would require just that. So, she doesn’t. Richie doesn’t ask, either, because one: he avoids the topic of Tom as well because it just puts him in a pissy mood for the rest of the day and he can’t be in a pissy mood during a gig, and two: Beverly have no indication about the guy who helped out at the vet clinic being attractive in any way.

She sighs as she falls into the couch after giving Sid the correct amount of medicine, turning on the TV, pushing any thoughts about men out of her mind as she watches a rerun of an old 90s show.

Hello, friends~

As many of you know, I put Kim Jongin on blast a week or two ago, because this is the second (2nd) time he's uploaded a picture of himself in dreads to his IG, and I was Sick And Tired™. I've been riding for Jongin since he was masquerading as a dom top (if you don't know, you don't know), so that shit rly hurt my feelings.

Anyway, there's no real reason for me to be bringing this up, I just wanted to assert that Jongin wearing dreads is Wrong.

Moving on…

What I *actually* wanna talk about is what has been a v hot topic in EXO's fandom for years - how badly managed/promoted EXO is.

Now, before I begin, I will not entertain the idea that SM is somehow mistreating EXO because they aren't getting as much of a promotion push than their juniors. While it does suck that SM seems to just throw EXO albums at us and expects us to be content, you will not call that mistreatment.

NCT and Red Velvet getting a bigger promotional push than EXO is not mistreatment, it's just business.

Business that I'd like to explain to y'all, because I've been thinking about recently this, and it rly does go deeper than ~EXO doesn't rly need it anymore~.

So!! The year is 2012. Unbeknownst to my Black ass, SM is gearing up for the debut of their newest boy band, codename EXO, with a ridiculous ass teaser campaign.

No seriously, 18 teasers and you haven't even unveiled a debut song yet?!?!?! Flagrant.

I wasn't with EXO since The Beginning™, but close enough; I happened upon EXO-M's version of What Is Love while looking for sumn to watch on tv, and my wig was immediately blasted to space dust. What is Love wasn't the first K-Pop MV I saw that night (it was either B.A.P's Warrior or miss A's Touch), but it was the one that stuck with me.

See, I had no idea who or what a K-Pop was outside of vaguely knowing a few idol groups friends tried to put me on previously. It was *Jasmine voice* A Whole New World~ for me, and EXO was on the fast track to becoming my very first bias group. MAMA was an overdramatic mess that I absolutely fucking loved, and you couldn't tell me their debut EP wasn't The Shit™.

A heaux still Rolls Like A Buffalo™ to Two Moons, bitch!!

Fast forward one (1) year, and EXO are back (as twelve) with their first album (and K-Pop's first million seller in over a decade) XOXO. Girl, when I tell you replayed that album like it was the one thing holding me together… I was a whole MESS!! I'd become more of a full fledged K-Pop fan in EXO's absence (more on that later), but I was overjoyed to have my boys back.

Now, why am I going over this?!!? This is all fairly common knowledge among EXO L, but many of the current generation EXO L rolled up on EXO during their EXODUS/Love Me Right era. Which was 2015. So you have a bunch of EXO L who, first of all, are part of a whole new generation of K-Pop fans who consume K-Pop very differently than those of us who were fans back in 2012.

K-Pop standom these days is very social media focused, with many of our favorite idols having SNS accounts of their own where they interact with us. K-Pop fans these days are practically spoiled with content when idols aren't promoting/on tour. It rly feels like idols never truly ~go away~, because if they did, it'd leave an opening for someone else to take their place.

Something we saw when group B.A.P filed a joint lawsuit against their management agency and disappeared for a whole year.

This is where, I think, a lot of the "EXO Isn't Promoted" foolery comes from; EXO are not heavily on social media like many of their current generation contemporaries are. They don't do v lives like them, and have very few reality shows focused on them. Coupled with the fact that much of the content we do get from EXO is behind a pay wall, I definitely understand where the frustration comes from.

But let me add another layer to this, kids. It's my belief that SM doesn't feature EXO like that, because EXO were supposed to redeem SM in the public's eye for the JYJ/Hangeng lawsuits. But they, instead, embarrassed the absolute shit out of them.

Ooh, I bet y'all are all sat at attention now.

Level with me here, folks - EXO was SM's first debut since the Hangeng/JYJ cases blew up and rained doo doo flakes upon SM's reputation. SM had just renegotiated contracts with all their debuted acts to show that they aren't the monsters that JYJ and Hangeng were making them out to be. EXO was supposed to be SM's redemption arc, but there was one little problem - a 6ft stunner by the name of Kris Wu.

Fun fact - Suho, Jongin, and Kris were my original biases in EXO. Bet no one saw that coming.

Kris was always an oddball in EXO. Sure, he definitely fit the look of a K-Pop idol, but man's had far bigger aspirations. Ones that routinely got him in trouble with management. Remember that year long hiatus EXO took after their debut?!?! Rumor has it that it was caused by SM exiling Kris back to Canada, because of tensions between him and one of EXO's managers.

EXO returning as twelve was also, allegedly, because SM wanted to keep tabs on Kris, while also trying to bolster EXO K's popularity in Korea. Allegedly, tho.

Kris saw being in EXO as a way to jumpstart a career as a Chinese entertainer, but he ultimately decided that it wasn't worth it in the end. In May of 2014, he filed suit against SM to have his contract with the agency terminated.

Once again - why am I bringing this up?!! This is all common knowledge in EXO L circles. Well, it was extraordinarily shocking at the time.

As I've stated previously, EXO was SM's first boy band since the JYJ/Hangeng lawsuits. They had just finished renegotiating contracts with all of their active idols to comply with new rules and standards set in place by the government. For all intents and purposes, SM should have had no problems, like the Tinashe song.

But they did.

Kris, in many of the infamous press releases he released in reply to what SM was saying to the media, painted a very familiar story to many of us. He alleged that SM greatly limited his creative freedom, and treated him like a manufactured product. I remember him saying he felt like a box, at one point, and that hit me hard. He also alleged that SM worked him so hard that he developed myocarditis (a heart condition), and that there was rampant favoritism (claims that would also be backed up by a lawsuit launched by Luhan).

It was not a good look for SM, fam.

As a result of Kris' suit, the fandom was split. You had one camp that supported Kris, and another that supported SM/EXO. It didn't help that many of the EXO members spoke out against Kris, with Suho (the leader) saying he was being irresponsible and he needs to come back so they can work this out.

Messy™

Later that year, Luhan went onto launch his own suit against SM (which was more supported by the fandom *is totally not bitter anymore*), citing almost exactly the same complaints as Kris while also going so far as to allege that the Chinese members had different contracts than the Korean ones.

And if you thought that was bad enough, seemingly RoD member Tao decides he's done with the bullshit too, and files his own lawsuit against SM. DURING EXO'S CALL ME BABY COMEBACK PROMOTIONS!!

TALK ABOUT MESSINESS, SIS!!

Say what you want about Tao, but he rly does know how to cause a scene, and I admire that.

So yeah… Talk about a public relations nightmare.

Korean netizens were firmly on SM's side during this entire trial, but Kris, Luhan, and Tao managed to deal an even greater blow to SM's rep than JYJ/Hangeng did. Not that I think it's right, but it's plenty clear why SM doesn't rly feature EXO much anymore.

Not only are they getting older (Xiumin just enlisted a month ago), but SM is clearly trying to move past EXO, as a group. Which idk how they're gonna do that when they routinely refuse members who are not Baekhyun or Jongdae solo opportunities, but whatever. With NCT taking off (pun intended) everywhere except Korea, it's going to be quite a while before the EXO name gets retired.

Bahorel’s Laughing Mistress

Modern AU, Courfeyrac, Bahorel, Feuilly and the laughing mistress, 1.7k

I’m not sure if this counts for Feuilly Week, I’ll leave that up to the mod, but I really wanted to introduce my take on the laughing mistress and Feuilly is really important for that!

“So what do you think?” Bahorel asks.

Courfeyrac swipes back and forth between the two pictures. Each shows a pair of incredibly loud trousers. “The second one,” he says decidedly. “Definitely.” He bites the inside of his cheek. “But the first one would go really well with your red shoes,” he ponders.

“Yeah, that’s what I thought,” Bahorel grins. “So I bought them both.”

“What did you ask me for then?” Courfeyrac huffs, waving the phone at Bahorel in pretended annoyance. His thumb slips and the next picture slides into view. Courfeyrac stares at it. It’s a selfie of Bahorel and a girl with a ponytail that seems to be trying to bite his ear. Something like that happening is not in itself particularly unusual, but Bahorel keeping a picture like this on his phone is.

“What?” Bahorel asks.

Courfeyrac turns the screen towards him. “Who is that?” he asks, brown eyes fixed on Bahorel with intense suspicion.

A smirk twitches across Bahorel’s face. “Looks like me,” he says.

Courfeyrac narrows his eyes at him. “Bahorel,” he says, puffing up with indignation. “Are you seeing someone and hiding it from us?”

“What do you mean hiding?” Bahorel grins.

Courfeyrac lets out an affronted gasp and scowls at Bahorel’s shit-eating grin. “I don’t believe you.”

With a smirk Bahorel takes back his phone and texts Grantaire: “Do I have a girlfriend?”

“You told Grantaire before me?” Courfeyrac cries, actually offended now.

Bahorel’s phone pings.

R: Yeah you fucking do and you’re both banned from my car

Courfeyrac makes a series of noises that kind of remind Bahorel of an offended hen. This is even funnier than he thought it would be. Definitely worth being secretive over. “Still not convinced?” he quips and he sends another message.

Baz: ?

Feuilly: ?

Baz: Do I have a girlfriend?

Instead of an answer Feuilly sends back a picture. Courfeyrac snatched the phone from Bahorel’s hand to look at it. It’s a rather crooked selfie, showing both Feuilly and the mystery girl sprawled out on Bahorel’s couch. It’s definitely the same girl. Same high ponytail, suntanned skin, bright eyes and blonde hair. Except there is a blue streak in it now.

“That’s new,” Bahorel says helpfully. “She won a bet.”

“Don’t you mean lost?” Courfeyrac frowns.

“No,” Bahorel grins.

Courfeyrac looks from the picture to Bahorel and back again. The look on his face is hovering between excited friend and wounded princess. “I wouldn’t have told the others if you wouldn’t have wanted me to,” he grumbles softly after a conflicted silence. “I can keep a secret you know, when I try.”

The grin on Bahorel’s face was already fond, it softens a little more now. He holds out his hand for his phone.

Courfeyrac gives it to him.

“Her name’s Risa,” he says, pulling up another chat.

“Your girlfriend doesn’t have a name in your phone,” Courfeyrac says disapprovingly, looking at the screen past his hands.

“She named her own contact, don’t look at me,” Bahorel grins and he sends a couple of messages until there is a reply.

Baz: ?

Baz: Risa

Baz: !

Baz: Risa

😜❤: No 💋

Baz: Habibi ❤

😜❤: No 💋����💋

Baz: Courf wants to say hi.

😜❤: Hi courf  😄

Baz: BETRAYAL

😜❤: Courf sounds a lot like baz

Courfeyrac beams at Bahorel, who leans back with a grin and surrenders his phone. Courfeyrac excitedly types back:

Baz: Hi! This is Courf!

😜❤: Hi 😉 Baz behaving himself?

Baz: No, he never told me about you!

😜❤: Scandalous. I know who you are tho 😊

Baz: Well that’s something

Bahorel watches Courf type away and smiles. He didn’t tell Courfeyrac about Risa because he knew it would be funny, but also because he wanted to be sure first. She had met Feuilly pretty much right away, of course, and not telling Grantaire hadn’t been an option, but he had liked keeping this to himself for a while. He hadn’t dated anyone seriously in a long time. Serious wasn’t really his thing. Bahorel could practically hear Feuilly argue with him in his head as soon as he thought that. He was serious. He was serious about lots of things. He just wanted them to also be fun. Risa was fun.

Beside him Courfeyrac snorts and Bahorel glances at the screen.

Baz: Why are you banned from R’s car?

😜❤: Cause I stole his keys

Baz: Why??

Baz: Did you take the car?

😜❤: No! We just needed to borrow it for a sec

😜❤: Or 10 minutes

😜❤: R can’t take a joke

😜❤: You know his car has a name

Baz: It’s his baby

😜❤: He’s the baby

😜❤: We both kept our clothes on

Baz: Omg 😂

😜❤: 😜

😜❤: Commercial breaks over

😜❤: Feu says hi!

Baz: Hi Feuilly! And bye Risa!

😜❤: Bye courf 😄

Courfeyrac hands the phone back to Bahorel and he’s pleased to see his friend’s face is it’s usually sunny shade again.

“She sounds fun!” Courfeyrac beams.

“I know,” Bahorel smirks. “That's why I asked her out.”

“Where’d you meet her?” he asks eagerly.

“Gym,” he replies.

“I knew it!” Courfeyrac grins. “So that’s how Grantaire knows her.”

“Hm,” Bahorel chuckles.

“I’m still hurt though,” Courfeyrac warns. “Hurt and appalled at your secrecy.”

“Damn,” Bahorel says, rubbing the back of his neck. “I’m guessing you’re going to be even more upset about the baby then, hm?”

There’s a single heartbeat of shocked silence before Courfeyrac gives him a shove and Bahorel’s laugh rumbles loudly through Courfeyrac’s apartment.

.

By the time Bahorel is allowed to leave, Courfeyrac has managed to drag most of the information there is to give about him and Risa out of him. Bahorel swings by his favourite bakery on his way home, but it’s the only thing he stops for. Home has a lot to offer today.

He smirks when he finds Feuilly and Risa still on the couch when he comes home. They are dozing in front of the TV. Feuilly’s feet are resting on a crate and Risa is sprawled out across the couch with her legs resting across his lap. She’s tall and broad enough to take up nearly all of the couch that way. “Well, you’ve clearly had a productive afternoon,” Bahorel teases.

“The eternal student can shut his face,” Risa informs him. “I have just had ten hours on a tour bus and Feu-” She gives Feuilly a tap with one of her feet. “-doesn’t have enough down time as it is!”

“Forgiveness,” Bahorel begs with a grin and he holds out the bag of pastries.

“Sugar,” Feuilly smiles drowsily and he makes a grab for the bag.

Bahorel hands it to him and makes eyes at Risa.

She pretends to take some time to make up her mind before she sits up so Bahorel can sit down on the other end of the couch. When he has, she lets her muscles relax again and flops back down, her head landing in his lap.

Bahorel smiles and pushes the blue lock of hair in front of her eyes. She blows at it and pulls a face at him.

“Courf changed the name of the group chat,” Feuilly informs Bahorel.

“To what?” he asks, too lazy to take out his own phone.

“Bahorelisasneak,” Feuilly chuckles.

“That’s fair,” Bahorel grins.

“Does that mean I’m finally going to be introduced?” Risa asks merrily.

“I don’t think you’ll be able to avoid it,” Bahorel chuckles. He makes eye contact with Feuilly, who looks up from where he’s fishing sticky baked goods from the paper bag. “I told Courf he could tell.”

Feuilly smiles approvingly at him. “About time,” he hums.

Risa looks up at Bahorel happily. “Well, my next tour leaves in two weeks,” she reminds him. “Until then I have time to meet all your friends.”

“Hey now,” Bahorel protests. “You’ve only just come back! The others can wait.”

Risa hums and holds out her hand to Feuilly, who puts a sugar powdered cookie in it. Bahorel nonchalantly stretches his arms out along the back of the couch, but before he can even make a grab for the cookie Risa has caught his wrist with her free hand and is wrestling it down.

“Nice try, thief!” she crows, stuffing the cookie into her mouth. As soon as she’s got both her arms free she pushes herself up and tries to wrap and arm around Bahorel’s neck, but he knows better than to let her put him in a headlock and fights back. It still delights him that he can actually fight back without fear of hurting her. He’s too used to inflicting accidental injuries.

“Nothing much on tv,” Feuilly says, completely unfazed by the small wrestling match taking place partly on his lap.

“There’s never anything on tv,” Risa points out, mouth full of crumbs and sugar. “That’s a given.” She releases Bahorel from her grip and he makes a show of kissing the powdered sugar off her fingers.

“We don’t need tv,” he says wisely. “That’s what treasured box sets are for.”

“Leverage or That’s 70’s Show?” Feuilly asks with a grin.

“Leverage,” Risa says decidedly and she rolls off both their laps and gets to her feet, drawing herself up to her full height.

Bahorel grins up at her. If he had been Grantaire, he would have quoted something about amazons.

“You guys decide which episode,” Risa says cheerfully, walking across the room to fetch the box set. “As long as Elliot’s in it I’m happy.”

“Oh I see how it is,” Bahorel says, trying for his best wounded expression.

“Hey,” Risa grins. “I’m a simple woman. I like my company charming and strong enough to knock out three people in under five seconds.”

She tosses the box set to Feuilly and Bahorel grabs for it as well, scooting over to catch it.

Risa jumps over the back of the couch and sits down on Bahorel’s other side with a bounce. She puts an arm around him. “Oh look, I found one.” She grins at Feuilly. “Or two.”

“Or three,” Bahorel chuckles and he pulls her closer.

Risa laughs and wraps her arms around his neck, in a non-strangely way this time.

Feuilly hides his grin and holds up a disc. "The Stork Job? Or do I need to go for a walk or something?"

Risa laughs again and this time so do Bahorel and Feuilly. Her laugh is infectious.

“Leverage first, walks later.”

In-Law (Part 2)

Pairing: Dean x Reader

Summary: She loved him and she watched him go. In a fit of sorrow, she threw herself in the arms of a stranger, not expecting to land herself in the current situation. 

Word Count: 2268

Warnings: None

A/N: Thank you for your love thus far and thank you for taking your time to read this series! 

PART 1

The breakfast was awkward for the female as she watched her sister and Sam intimately conversing with each other. What distracted her even more was the fact that Dean, her new brother, was brushing his foot against hers constantly. It caused her cheeks to bleed red, to which she tried to hide with her palm.

“Y/N?”

“Hm?” Her eyes trailed over to Sam who seemed concerned by her growing red cheeks.

“Your face is flushed. Are you feeling sick?”

The red on her cheeks grew darker, “No, no! I’m fine. Perfect. Don’t you think it’s hot in here?”

“Must be your imagination. It’s pretty cold in here,” Dean chuckled darkly.

“I hope you aren’t sick,” her sister worried, a frown apparent on her face. “Her colds last forever.”

“Yes, I’m fully aware of that.” Sam smiled at Y/N, “Since we’re all finished eating, I’ll go pay so you can go sleep off that cold.”

She nodded, glancing away from the man as her blush stained her whole face. Inwardly, she was celebrating the fact he remembered a minisicule detail about her that she told him during their rendezvous at the cafe. It meant that he hadn’t forgotten about their time spent together years ago.

The giddy smile that broke on her face didn’t go unnoticed by the older Winchester as he fiercely glared at her with a disgusted look. She didn’t pay attention to him, keeping her gaze on her empty plate, waiting for her blush to die down.

“You guys go on ahead. We’ll meet up by the entrance,” her sister stated as she shooed them off. The two nodded and traveled outside.

Standing ten feet apart from each other, there was an awkward tension between them, but for different reasons unbeknownst to the both of them. Y/N, hoewever, wanted to get to the bottom of things.

“What the hell are you plotting?”

Dean’s eyebrow quirked up, “Excuse me?”

“What are you trying to do? You think it’s funny to embarrass me in front of your brother?”

“Don’t flatter yourself. You’re ruining yourself on your own accord.”

“I know my feelings are none of your concern. Frankly, I could care less about you too, but for the sake of our siblings, we should try to make this work.”

“You don’t care for your sister. This is about you pleasing my brother.”

“...What?” She was beyond stunned by his words, rendering her speechless.

“It’s written all over your face. The only thing you care about is being a Winchester and  getting down my brother’s pants, which is why you feel bitter by the fact your sister married my brother.”

“Well shit, you have me all figured out,” she snapped, sarcasm heavy in her words.

“I want to be a Winchester so bad, I’m pissing off the younger one!”

“You’re probably finding some excuse to whine to my brother to steal him away from your sister.”

The hand that connected with his cheek was as loud as a clap and everything around them fell silent. “You’re disgusting.”

His cold gaze locked with her hurt ones, causing his lips to press together in a tight line. He didn’t expect that reaction from her.

“Y/N, Sam wanted to ask you for a favor before you -Oh! What happened here?”

Her eyes averted away from her sister, “I’m leaving. Just drop me a text of what you need and I’ll do it.” Her voice wavered, and she quickly stalked away to the parking lot, leaving her sister in a confused state.

“Dean, your cheek is red. Did Y/N do something?”

Dean directed his attention to his sister-in-law and shrugged, “Don’t worry about it.”

Right on cue, Sam returned from paying the bill, his eyes instantly went straight to the hand-print mark on his brother’s cheek, “I suppose you finally got to know Y/N then.”

Dean exhaled loudly. He didn’t think he would meet such a troublesome girl, let alone, a messed up one like her. But the power behind her slap really peaked his interest.

“I don’t think I read the text right, but you want me to what?” Y/N asked her sister on the phone. She paced around the living room of her medium-sized apartment, dressed in an oversized shirt and elephant printed socks as part of her sleepwear.

“Please show Dean around the city, and where his office will be.”

Y/N grabbed and threw her purse several times onto the counter in anger, then stalking to her refrigerator to look at her calendar. She clicked her tongue at her availability, granted it was her day off from work. “Can’t Sam--”

“We’re family now, so we need the both of you to get along.”

We get along quite well in bed just so you know, she mentally said. Outside the bedroom? Not so much.

“Shouldn’t you take him? He is more of your brother-in-law than he is mine.”

“Y/N, it’s important to me that you get along with Dean. I’m happy you are friends with my husband, it really is great, but I need you to at least be on better terms with Dean.”

A sigh tore through her throat as she rubbed her temple with her free hand. There was still an ongoing debate in her head, but the gnawing feeling of hurt triumphed over her mind.

‘Her husband,’

Thos two words sliced her deeper than what the idiot older brother said.

“I understand Dean can be difficult. He’s just awfully protective of his younger brother, so having another person in their circle makes him more hostile,” her sister explained. “I’m not going to ask what happened between the both of you earlier today--”

“Okay, okay. Fine,” she groaned. “I’ll show him around.”

There was a sigh of relief from the other end. “Thank you, Y/N. I knew I can count on you!”

Glancing at her watch, she huffed in annoyance as the seconds ticked away. It was already past 10 in the morning and far too early for her to be up on her day off.

Unfortunately for her, Dean was still a no-show which further irritated the female. Being an event planner, it was all about promptness, molding this pet-peeve of tardiness in her.

“Jerk,” she muttered under her breath as the hand landed on the 6. “10.30, and he--”

“Is here,” a familiar voice interrupted. Startled, she whipped her head to the side to see Dean smirking at her.

Wearing a black tshirt that clung onto his body nicely, a red plaid flannel over it, and dark blue jeans. This man was too handsome. He had the kind of face that stops you in your tracks. I guess he must get used to that, the sudden pause in a person’s natural expression when they looked his way.

“I’m doing you a favor, and you’re late.”

The plastic bag he held onto was ushered into her hands, “I was told you like this.”

She sent him a suspicious glance, but the way he crossed his arms meant that he was unhappy about something. She pulled the bag open and peeked inside.

“I do like this type of snacks, but why are you giving me this”

He didn’t want to say anything, but her persistent silence refused to let it go.

“I was harsh on you last Monday.”

He wasn’t going to apologize, that much she was sure of. If she demanded an apology, she felt he would create another war between them both, which would undo the thoughtfulness of the present him. Plus, all she wanted to do was please her sister and Sam.

“Thanks for this,” she mumbled.

He shrugged, “Let’s get this over with.”

Shaking her head softly, Y/N guided Dean away from the plaza and into the subway. When they arrived at their destination, she pointed at one of the tallest buildings in the city, citing that this was his building. She refused to enter with him while he inspect his office and speak to the man he was taking over for.

It took less than an hour for him to return, all the while she waited patiently at a nearby fast food restaurant.

“Typical,” Dean muttered as he joined her in an isolated booth. He faced her with a scowl, arms crossed as he eased into the comfort of his seat.

“You didn’t enjoy your time with your boss?” the female hummed as she took a sip of her beverage. The remnants of her lunch were scattered around the table, evidence that she had eaten without him.

“You enjoyed your lonesome lunch?” he roterted.

Her eyebrows twitched, though she noticed his discomfort. “You must he angry that I ate a delicious burger while you had to endure with those business people.”

“For starters, that man is not my boss,” he corrected her, his hands reaching over to grab a fry, throwing it in his mouth. 

“Secondly, I think you make a bad tour guide. You failed to feed me. No wonder your event company is so low-leveled. It has incompetent employees bringing it down.”

“Oh sure, go ahead, make fun of my job too. There’s a lot about me that can’t match up to the Winchester’s name, that I agree, but at least I have the decency to shut my mouth when I’ve crossed the line,” she replied acidly as she referred to what happened last week.

He remained silent, analyzing her angered expression.

“So you’re a person who owns three cats and loves her job.”

“...Is that an insult?” She cracked a smile, “That has to be the dumbest thing I’ve heard you say.”

“You’re laughing now?” He scoffed.

She attempted to stifle her laughter, but his words replayed in her mind.

“Cats? Freaking Cats? Here you were, insulting my family and me, and then pull that lame insult out of your ass? It’s hilarious!”

Her laughing was contagious, even to Dean.  His narrowed eyes softened up as a small smile formed on his lips. “You’re weird. I bet you don’t have any friends.”

“And you’re very childish, also an asshole. You probably only have enemies,” she stated between giggles. “But at least I’m the best at my job.”

“Yeah right,” he chuckled as he glanced away. There was amoment of silence as Dean pondered over her statement.

“Hey, wanna test it out?”

“Test what?”

“How good you are at your job.”

Her eyebrows rose with interest. “Go on, I’m listenng.”

“The Winchester firm is celebrating the retirement of the man I’m taking over. I’ll recommend you to be the event planner. If you don’t fail, they’ll probably hire you as a permanent planner.”

“That sounds like the perfect challenge.”

“If you fail, which I’m 99% sure about, you’ll be left in the streets for sure and the Winchester family will ruin you.”

“...My brother is an asshole.”

“I’m not your brother.”

Their eyes met, and she could feel his heated state burning through her. The sexual tension proved they couldn’t consider each other as siblings even if their own siblings married each other. Not even that marriage could hold back the connection these two owned.

“It’s a deal then.”

His smirk grew, plagued with his permanent cockiness. However, she was ready to prove him wrong.

The next few days, Y/N anxiously waited any phone call from the Winchester company regarding her employment. She was completely wrapped up with the challenge that Dean proposed, she hadn’t noticed how large scale the party proved to be;  she hadn’t realized that Dean’s position was so far up in the company ladder that they could in fact ruin her.

She only found out an hour upon her return from the excursion, googling the name of the retiring man. Apparently, he was third in command, and for Dean’s young age of 25, it was a huge accomplishment for him to be presiding over that job.

He wasn’t lying when he warned her how the Winchester company would ruin her if she happened to fail.

“Y/N, can you come to my office?” her bass called, gaining the attention of all the employees on the floor. The middle-aged woman signaled her over with two fingers with a stern gaze.

“We need to talk.”

That’s never a good sign.

Her heart sped up as she fumbled out of her work space, her feet hastily traveling towards the grand office her boss occupied.

“Y-yes?” She quietly closed the door behind her and sat in the chair across her boss’ table.

“I don’t know what, why or how, but we are going to be the event planners for an event hosted by the Winchesters.” Her eyebrows rose, intuitively guessing it was she that arranged this.

The marriage between her sister and Sam was no secret in the business world as it caught quite the attention; a no-name engineer marrying the soon to be CEO of Winchester Enterprise? Yeah, that was an eye-catcher.

“That’s great!”

“You definitely had something to do with this since they asked for you to be the head planner.”

“W-what?” Now that came as a shock to her.

She had expected Dean to request a more experienced person to be in charge, but it was apparent that he was taking this challenge far too seriously.

“I know you are more than capable, but you have never done an event this large scaled. This is an important company we want to impress, so I expect no mistakes. Do I make myself clear, Y/N?”

“I won’t let you down!” Y/N replied determinedly.

Challenge accepted, Dean Winchester.

WOULD YOU RATHER: INAZUMA EDITION - PART 2

1. Go to a dinosaur museum with Shinsuke OR go to a book club with Ichino

I wanna see Shinsuke get super excited about dinosaurs, it’s so cute! He can teach me all about his favorite kinds~

2. Let Shindou teach you how to play the piano OR let Kidou teach you how to cook

I am musically-challenged and cooking is a more useful life skill. Although I can already cook... But Kidou can make me better : D Although I prefer Shindou to goggle-boy...

3. Eat Tachimukai’s super super spicy curry OR eat curry that Kogure made for you (with an evil look in his eye as he passes it to you)

I’ll take my chances and pray it’s not spicy - I can’t do spicy food at all!

4. Make onigiri with all the managers for a team of your choice OR make chocolates with one manager to give to only one of the boys

I didn’t realize this was so difficult... Okay, I’ll make chocolates with Aoi-chan to give to Sakuma! ...Although the timeline is not right... I wanna make onigiri for all of GO Raimon too! Damn you, me! This was a tough one!

5. Bake a cake with Tenma, Shinsuke, Hikaru, Kyousuke, Masaki and Aoi OR Be a manager for Inazuma Japan

I imagine self-defence would be useful

10. Cuddle up under a blanket with Fei OR eat strawberry and cream cake with Tenma

11. Have Manabe help you with your homework for the year OR visit a planet of your choice from Galaxy

IF I was still in school I’d pick Manabe. But I’m not so I pick visiting space.

12. Have Gouenji buy you a giant teddy bear OR have Sakuma buy you a penguin keychain

FFS I want both the giant teddy bear for my apartment and the keychain BUT I guess I could attach the penguin keychain to my keys. And I love Sakuma : D

13. Make high-quality chocolate with Shindou OR make traditional Japanese sweets with Kirino

As much as I love Ranmaru, if Shindou could teach me how to make chocolate I would be so happy! I also feel like Shindou would be a better cook than Kirino... ^^’ I can buy Japanese sweets, but I need Shindou to teach me the art of chocolate~

To be honest I would be interested in both types of show BUT I like Midori more (we can talk about hot guys haha)

21. Plan a surprise birthday party for Kyousuke with Tenma OR plan a welcome home party for Yuuichi with Kyousuke

Oh wow, a party for Yuuichi would be so touching. I hope it happens. But I love the idea of planning a party with Tenma for Kyousuke. Extra bright and colourful decorations!

23. Go to a host club and have Minamisawa be your host OR go to a maid cafe and have one of the managers be your maid

As much as I wanna see Aoi-chan in a maid costume, I can’t turn down the chance for Minamisawa-senpai to be my host for an evening~

24. Go shopping with Kirino to pick out a birthday gift for Shindou OR Have Kazemaru and Midorikawa go shopping to pick out a birthday gift for you

Of course I would choose the first one, haha. I would love to go shopping with Kirino for his best friend~

25. Let Fudou cut your hair OR let Burn and Gazel ‘mind’ your house for a week

FFFF- I feel like my hair will grow back even though it will look awful at first but if anything gets damaged I have to pay for it... I don’t trust those two. OH WAIT! I’ll have to get a straight perm again and that’s really expensive... But I was going to get it done anyway in January... How long does it take for hair to grow back? My students won’t take me seriously. But I don’t trust those two with my house at all! What if they annoy the neighbours with their arguing? What if Burn sets the place on fire? I know I’m insured but I can’t risk it-

26. Eat the okonomiyaki from Rika’s shop OR eat the managers’ hand-crafted onigiri (not Natsumi’s!)

-I guess if Aphrodi comes with them it should be safe, right? I just got a new sofa, AND I cleaned the whole apartment today, I don’t want them to mess it up!

27. Visit Korea with Aphrodi, Burn and Gazel and get a personalized tour OR visit the Nara deer park with the Break Trio, Kazemaru and Fubuki

I already visited the deer park (but I wanna see Kaze’s reaction to deer!) and I wanna eat Korean food! Aphrodi will be a good tour guide : )

28. Hang out in America with Ichinose, Domon and the rest of team unicorn OR go on a European tour with the captains from FFI

I don’t know either teams at all but since I’m from Europe I wanna visit America. Wait no, Fideo! I pick Europe! Italy : D

29. Prepare for Raimon’s cultural festival with Kazemaru and Gouenji OR go on a camping trip with Tatsuya and Midorikawa

I wanna fall asleep with them right now

PART 2 of BTS FAN QUESTIONS!

27. What’s your favorite Bangtan Bomb? Ok, I feel like the English Speaking one is to cliche to answer. Instead, I’m gonna say the SOPE-ME video with Yoongi & Hoseok, since they are my two main biases and they are so great haha. https://youtu.be/nac1hoha570 28. What is your favorite choreography? WHAAA this is so hard - there are so many!! Possibly Blood Sweat & Tears, because it is very sexy. 29. Which album cover is your favorite? You Never Walk Alone

30. Do your friends like BTS? I have a few friends who enjoy BTS’ music, which is nice that I can share that with them. But no one who really ‘stans’ BTS like I do :( No one to share the fangirling with. 31. Name three of your favorite funny moments. 1) The video where there’s a firework on stage and Min Yoongi freaks out and so does Hobi. And then Yoongi just runs off the stage. And Namjoon is all cool, and Jimin is just laughing and dancing. Lmao This video made me laugh for 10 min straight because of all their reactions: https://youtu.be/SBY3H1zxuRI

2) The whole English speaku on the plane video is still so damn funny, will forever laugh at that.

3) Them watching their Blood Sweat Tears MV is good

AHH IDK I cant think of my faves

32. Favorite Suga moment? Serious moment? His Tony Montana performance with Jimin Funny moment? His “J-HOOOOOOOOOOPEEEEEE” 33. Favorite J Hope moment? THE NO MORE DREAM DANCE BREAK VIDEO. The sexiest thing ever.  Funny moment?  34. Favorite Jin moment? Any of his winshield laugh moments, I could watch him laughing for hours it makes my day 35. Favorite Jungkook moment? Jungkook imitating all the members (Jin, Jimin, Rapmon) Also him lip syncing the Linkin Park song was so funny ALSOOO his Rainism dance..... SO GUD 36. Favorite Jimin moment? God, Jimin is such a performer. Any time he is performing on stage on camera he knows how to be sexy. Love his ‘LIE’ performance

I love his Cypher passion because I totally feel the same way LMAO the Cyphers are so lit. 38. Favorite Rap Monster moment? It’s R-A-P MONSTER not D-A-N-C-E MONSTER Any time he’s being a smarty pants is also great

39. Name four things that remind you of your bias. 1) The obvious: sunshine 2) When I hear despacito on the radio, I think of him singing it and it makes me smile 3) Whenever I am dancing (ie - Zumba class) I think of Hoseokie... his dancing is amazing and inspires me. Sometimes I try to dance as if Hoseok was there watching me. 4) I tend to say some of his quotes at times “I HATE SNAKEU” “DIRTY WATER ON MY FACEU” “OH MY HEARTEU IS..OMG” 40. Have you ever seen them live in concert? How many times? Yes, I saw them on April 1, 2017 in Anaheim during their Wings Tour. It changed my life.

41. You hear BTS in public- do you go off or pretend not to care? Oh, I definitely would freak out. Matter of fact, that happened to me once when I heard Dope at the ice cream shop. I have a realllyyy hard time hiding my love for Bangtan.

42.If you had to put them in order, what would your order be? Hate doin this cause I dont want anyone to be at the bottom :< They’re all amazing. 1) J-Hope 2) Suga 3) V 4) Jimin 5) Jin 6) RapMon 7) Jungkook (sry Kookie, but you’re a lil youngin to me :<) 43. Do you have any merch? Errrmmm, not ‘official’ merch - but I have lots of photocards, posters, and some knock off wings tour merch since it all sold out too quickly for me to purchase. I wanted to buy a ton of stuff during the concert but I was stuck waiting in line for my GA wristband. 44. What’s your favorite hairstyle on each of the boys? AIIISHHH. This is hard. I realize I’m pretty boring with their hairstyles, I rly like brown/black hair on KPAP boiz. J-Hope: Black hair, one of my favorite looks is during the RUN MV. Kookie: Brown hair, his doesn’t change that much tbh Tae: Light brown hair, love his hair during Not Today. Jin: OK JIN WITH PINK HAIR THO. THAT WINGS PHOTOSHOOT. Jimin: Blood Sweat Tears hair. Need I say more? Rap Monster: Not Today hair. Suga: This one is hard because I really, really love a lot of Suga’s hairstyles. But I think Agust D blonde is my fave.

45. What would you get your bias for christmas? I’d get him pretty flowers and plants to grow in a garden, because he is my sunshine. <3

47. If you were to pick an outfit for your bias, what would you get him? First off, get him a simple black choker necklace becasue I just love the way Hobi looks in a choker. Maybe a nice blazer or jacket. Dark black pants. And those studly shoes he was wearing during the BBMAs. 48. Which of the boys would you want to get drunk with? I think Tae would be pretty fun to get drunk with ;) 49. Which of the boys would you want to have a movie night with? Maybe Namjoonie, because I feel like we could have an awesome, meaningful talk about the movie afterward 50. Which of the boys would you want to go shopping with? I’d say Jin, I bet he would be fun to shop and look at clothes with <3 51. Which of the boys would you want as your best friend? My bias Hoseok...I’d be in love with my best friend though. 53. Which of the boys would be the best boyfriend? I’m pretty sure they’d all be amazing boyfriends. I would love to see Hoseokie or Yoongi as boyfriends. They are my two loves.  55. Which boy is the most like you personality-wise?   Ahhh this is hard. In some ways, I do say J-Hope. I try to always be as fun and upbeat as him. 

56. Talk about the three things you like the most about your bias. His incredible smile. It’s what made me fall in love with him during the wings concert. His fun, upbeat personality that outshines everything. He’s always so upbeat and adorable. I love how he always calls us “his hope”. <3 <3 “I’m your hope, J-Hope”. His amazing dancing skills. 57. Talk about your bias’s sense of humor. Ehehehe, J-Hope is always laughing and making the others laugh. Thats why I love him. He is just so much fun. 58. Talk about your bias’s face and why you love it. Again, I think all of the boys have amazing smiles. But in my honest opinion, Jung Hoseok has the best smile in BTS. When I saw that big grin, perfect teeth, and energetic smile on stage I just couldn’t take it. 59. Describe your dream date or hang out  with your bias. Auughhh - hard to say. Spending any time with Jung Hoseok would be perfect - but I’d really do anything to get to know him more as a person beyond what I see on camera. Also, maybe a dance lesson date would be nice since I love to dance and he’s the best at it ;) 60. Do you think the way the boys act in public is how they really are? Hmmm, idk. Honestly, I’m sure they have moments off camera where they can be divas, dramatic, argue and everything. We never see that on camera, but I’m sure it happens a lot. However, we do see a TON of their day-to-day lives through vlogs and bangtan bombs and shows. So I feel like the personalities they show on camera are similar to their day-to-day personalities.

I Give Up Q&A

@daeyeonis

igu was great I cried like every chapter ok fam but- why the hot dog lmao

Im assuming this is for the Q&A since there is a question involved. Dood…why did Hot dog dress up as a hot dog for Halloween? Because chanyeol told her to go for funny over sexy. Why did i choose a hot dog costume? Its the second thing i thought of after a crunchy taco. A friend of mine owns a crunchy taco costume but we are mexican so its a familiar funny food item to us, but i was thinking about my international readers who might be more familiar with a Hot Dog, so i went with that. I literally make this stuff up…i just randomly picked something and then once drunk Yixing referred named her by her costume (was it chapter 21?), well the nickname stuck.

Anon Did anything go down between Baekhyun and Sehun on behind the scenes?

The real conflict between the two came from the bet that the EXO members made about Baekhyun and Hot Dog …they placed secret bets on the day the lovely couple would make up and get back together. Sehun had picked the night of the halloween party so he knew he had to pull out all the stops and use every trick he had up his sleeve In order to win. Sehun knew that Baek was the protective, jealous type and he used that to his advantage, getting Hot Dog good and drunk and hanging around her all night, being as flirty as he could be and making sure that Baekhyun saw all of it. When Baekhyun found out that Sehun got Hot Dog drunk on purpose and hung out with her all night within the eyeline of Baekhyun, just so that they would makeup that night and Sehun would win the bet, Baekhyun didn’t speak with Sehun for a whole week. At that point though it was kind of hard for Baek to stay mad when he and Hot Dog had made up and that happiness was so all consuming. Baek forgave Sehun after some expert whining and groveling.

Anon So…. does Junmyeon ever approve of Baek and Hot Dog’s relationship

Junmyeon approved after he met her during the dinner with Chanyeol. He found her to be intelligent and level headed and seeing the efforts she made to fight for their relationship after the breakup really made a good impression on him. He still makes sure to remind everyone of the importance of discretion and avoiding scandals, but he considers her part of the family now.

Anon Do you remember Baekhyun’s small notebook from chapter 19?? “You turned quickly and grabbed the small notebook you had resisted earlier off his nightstand and lifted it up…” Can you tell us now😅

Anon What about the notebook in chapter 19? What’s its secret? epilogue dood

Anon @ hotdog; did u get to read whatever was written on baek’s lil notebook?

the notebook will be in the epilogue.

Anon how many time passed from chapter 1 to chapter 28?

@jhopeismybutthole What amount of time did IGU take place in? Did main character hangout with other exo members after the costume party? Did baekhyun ask main characters dad for his blessing before officially proposing?

Baek and HD met in March of 2016, They celebrated their 100 day anniversary in July. Broke up around 200 days in October and got married just after their 300 day anniversary in January of 2017. :D

Things were a tiny bit awkward for HD and the other EXO members after the costume party. That was the night Baek and HD officially made up and Chanyeol, among other members heard them make up. It took a good couple of days before she could even look Chanyeol in the eye after that, but they all assured her that it was nothing that hadnt happened in the dorms before. Sehun was just happy to have won the bet. Kyungsoo was hoping Hot Dog and Baekhyun would work out because Baekhyun was far less annoying when he was in a relationship than when he was single, and Jongin always made it a point to strike up conversations with her when she was around. Just because they made up didn’t mean it was time for HD to neglect her super affectionate, rather needy boyfriend, and she continued to spend as much time with him during his off time as possible.

Baekhyun didn’t ask her father for permission to marry her. His reasoning was, they were already married, and it’s easier to ask for forgiveness than permission. What’s done was done and he figured they were both about to be in a shit load of trouble anway, they might as well just go all the way.

Anon From where do you get ideas for the upcoming chapters?? I mean what you done with BHXHD in IGU I apparently wanted to know FROM WHERE you get the ideas btw I love you dood

From wheeeeeere? From my brain dood. I tend to pull from the living world around me. I’m always paying attention to things and people, plus i also have a degree in psychology so i have a pretty good understanding of human behavior. I read a lot so i understand how stories are structured and i write the kinds of things that i would enjoy reading myself, so usually these things translate well into my stories. I also listen to lots of music and find inspiration in nearly everything i watch and hear.

One of my most helpful brainstorming methods is talking the plot out with a friend. I have two people that i like to discuss the stories with and usually this helps me think of things, or ideas for things that i hadn’t considered before. :D

Anon Q&A IGU: Did you have the ending planned from the onset?

Nooo, i never know where im going with these stories when i first start them. Ill usually have a general flow of where i want to go, but its so vague that it usually gets modified along the way. Around chapter 15 i said to myself, okay i need some sort of a plan or this thing will be 100 chapters of all smut and nonsense. It felt like it had no real plot. So i had some ideas and some talks with friends about what would be a fun direction to take it. By chapter 26, i had a definite plan for 27 and 28. But i usually dont plan very hard. I let the story write itself.

Anon Did minah get to go home safe?

Minah did get home safely. Unfortunately the two men she had been eyeing all evening went home with each other so she stumbled home alone and rather grumpy. Her disgruntled mood changed to guilt and worry when she found out what happened with Youngshik and Hot Dog and she vowed to kick him hard in the nuts if she saw him again. She never got the chance before the police took him away to be dealt with.

Anon How will their parents react to that marriage omg.. like are they going to repeat a ceremony for their families and friends or (I can imagine Baek doing this) just showing them a picture from their drunk marriage and being like “we got married c:” ?

This will most likely be addressed in the epilogue.

@peter-pan-princess Is 2AM in the same universe as IGU and All His?

yes, IGU, All His and 2AM are all in the same universe. That means the Jongdae who was dressed as Minseok’s lady at the halloween party, is the same Jongdae who is dating Minhee, Minseok’s sister. And the dress he wore actually belonged to Minhee. She also helped with his makeup. The pictures that were leaked of Jongdae were actually an ex he saw briefly before he got together with Minhee.

Did Sehun ever get over his crush on Hot Dog?

sehun is a brat and he never had a real crush, he’s just a flirty guy who likes girls and likes to see what he can get away with. He’s also not to blame for any of it really, but the shorties Baek and Kyungsoo see him as a little bit of a threat because he’s tall and pretty and the girls seem to like him. Hes unintentionally playing against their insecurities.

@mexbaekhyun DO THEY END UP HAVIG KIDS???? I NEED TO KNOW

This will probably be addressed in the epilogue

Anon a weird question but what’s baek & hd’s fave positions in bed bc i feel like i know but i need a confirmation vdhwbdw

This story was so smutty you know what their favorite positions in bed are. But okay okay. Baekhyun really enjoys watching her during sex, so any position that puts her right into his line of sight is a good position. Not that the others are bad positions, he still likes sex in the shower, sex against the wall, sex with her bent over the kitchen table or the arm of the sofa but his favorite, favorite thing in the world is watching himself disappear over and over again as he sits up on his ankles, rolling his hips. She enjoys being on top and he’s always more than willing to give in to her. The memories of her riding on top of him with her head thrown back as she cums are what gets him through some of the lonelier nights when he’s away on tour.

Anon lmao I was thinking how cute baek would be if he got hotdog knocked up but he’s an idol and that would be like reeeeaaaalllyyy inconvenient but still cute tho. They’re goals 👌👌

Unplanned pregnancies are really inconvenient regardless of one’s profession. HD is super careful to always take her pill every day but honestly, anything is possible and Baekhyun and HotDog’s relationship trend seems to all be about the word “Whoops”…if it happens, it would most likely be unplanned and a very real shock for both of them.

I do honestly believe that Baekhyun would be an amazing and very devoted father and the two would tackle the challenge of parenthood together, despite the obvious inconveniences. :D

princemalik: you?

mkarim: christ lmao

mkarim: yeah we play a bit in bars and stuff

mkarim: small venue stuff

mkarim: we're playing at charlie's on friday after pablo's band, you should come, are you in LA?

princemalik:  nah I don't live in the states, actually

princemalik:  that sounds really cool though, maybe you could get someone to record it for me?

princemalik:  that's not weird to ask, is it?

mkarim: no we post live vids on our channel you can check it out

mkarim: we're called endeverafter

mkarim: shame youre not close would be cool to jam sometime with a guy with music like yours

mkarim: you thinking of starting a band of your own?

princemalik: yeah absolutely I'll check it out

princemalik:  I've been talking to some of the guys in my class about it, the guitarist's dad owns a bar in the city he told us when we get some songs together we can play there

princemalik: so, do you speak Arabic or did you google my name?

mkarim: right on you gotta take him up on that let me know how it goes

mkarim: lol I speak it I was born just outside cairo

mkarim: I take it youre native too?

princemalik: yeah, I will.

princemalik: hey, me too.  When did you move out to the states?  What's it like?

mkarim: maybe five ago

mkarim: its amazing I love the city here

mkarim: so much to do, tons of clubs, people are just generally into more stuff

mkarim: I could never go back after being here its like a whole other world

mkarim: its expensive though

princemalik: yeah?  Worse than Cairo you think?

princemalik: I've always wanted to visit, it seems like everyone is more chill there, more accepting, y'know?

mkarim: definitely steeper. I got an apartment I share with three other guys rn

mkarim: they definitely are

mkarim: are you in school still?

princemalik: oh wow that's a lot, sounds like it could be a lot of fun tho

princemalik: yeah I am, you?

mkarim: yeah, second year. I think I'm done honestly though getting tired of this and the bands doing so well, we're getting signed in a few months, probably start touring

princemalik: holy shit you're getting signed?  That's amazing, good for you guys.  You gotta make sure the tour comes through here lol

mkarim: lmao yeah just for you your majesty

mkarim: what are you studying

princemalik: that's right, a private viewing just for me lol

princemalik: music theory

princemalik: what about you, something boring?

mkarim: yeah

mkarim: the only way my dad would pay for me to move here and go to school was if I studied what he wanted

mkarim: worth it to get away from him so I figure why not I can drop it out once I save up my own money

mkarim: sorry you don't need to know that shit

princemalik:  it's alright

princemalik: don't get along very well with your dad, huh?

mkarim: no

mkarim: do you live at home?

princemalik: that sucks, sorry man

princemalik: yeah, with my father and my sister

mkarim: older or younger? she into music too?

princemalik: older and nah not really

princemalik: she's more into like clothes and stuff

princemalik: you have any siblings?

mkarim: ooh fashionista lol

mkarim: no its just me

mkarim: that I know of lol

mkarim: isn't it late there now? youre like ten hours ahead aren't you?

princemalik: yeah she makes her own jewelry and everything she's pretty good at it

princemalik: yeah but it's the weekend tomorrow I'll just sleep in

mkarim: fair enough

mkarim: so what else are you into

princemalik: not a lot, with school and practice that takes up most of my time y'know

princemalik:  I read a lot, mostly keep to myself

princemalik:  what about you, you seem pretty outgoing.  I bet you have groupies already

mkarim: hahahaa yeah I guess kind of

mkarim: we go out a lot here like I said theres a lot of places to go

mkarim: do you party?

princemalik: yeah, sometimes

princemalik: there's some really nice clubs here but my dad is pretty strict so I've gotta get creative

mkarim: lol youre 20 man why do you stay at home? move out, get your own place, party any time you want. why let him rule you?

princemalik:  I don't really have a job right now, I couldn't afford living on my own anyway.

princemalik: he's not too bad

mkarim: if you say so

mkarim: I gotta get going. rehearsal. i'll talk to you later, prince lol

princemalik: alright lol see ya

princemalik:  you up yet?  How did your rehearsal go?

mkarim: hey sorry I hardly go on the chats here

mkarim: jon keeps bugging me about everything hes really annoying lol

mkarim: you can text me though that might be easier?

princemalik: yeah absolutely just send me you number

mkarim:  5552814

Hey it's the king.  So how was rehearsal, you go to any wild parties?

the king huh lol it was fine, just practicing for friday. probably having an after party then we'll see we'll see ;)

Hey, I didn't name myself lol.  Nice, have fun.  I'm going out Friday night too, it's not gonna be anywhere near as wild as your party though I'm sure.

whats your sisters name I bet its like Amira or something lol. you gonna party or got a hot date?

No lol it's Ishizu.  Just clubbing with some friends, I'm not really dating anyone right now.  What about you, you got a girlfriend or something?

or something. nah not really with anyone now.

so I listened to a few more of your songs on your yt, you've got good chords man. i'm still reeling that you put all that together by yourself.

That means a lot, especially from someone with as much experience as you, thank you.  Hey, if you ever need some guest vocals you know who to call lol

haha yeah if you ever flew to LA to sing. wouldn't be bad though we all suck, we could use someone like you. shame. what do you play most?

Mostly just sing, keyboard.  I started learning guitar years ago but I'm kind of a wuss with my hands I hate he callouses lol. What do you play?

lol aw the poor royal hands. I love guitar, i play bass mostly though.

Got the short end of the stick huh?   You're really good at the vocals too, you have a good voice for it.  You could be lead if you wanted to.

nah i don't think ive got the right stage presence for lead or something. i like bass its ok

That's something you learn, though, right?  You seemed to handle yourself pretty well in those videos.

ahh you watched those eh yeah they're kind nsfw I guess but so are the songs

Yeah they were really good though, you're very good looking.

ahahahaa thanks. You make any videos?

What, of just me?  Nah, that's kind of weird and embarrassing lol.  Maybe if the whole band thing takes off we will.

nah do like acoustic stuff. Girls love that shit. Besides, if you're good looking too it'll get you more views

Do they? lol  Yeah, maybe I'll try it.  Something with my keyboard, maybe.

yeah and then link me. That's not weird to ask right lol

Nah it's only fair I guess.  I'll have to borrow my father's camera no way my phone is gonna do it.

lol okay well good luck with that I look forward to it

Did you still wanna see that video?  I'm kinda nervous about posting it honestly.

what video?

oh yeahhh oh yeah send it over

I sent the link in our chat.  Promise not to laugh too much.

i promise

damn thats good man.

i mean it sounds as good the camera allows but you look great too man lol your views will definitely skyrocket if you post that

Oh wow thanks lol.  Yeah I think I'm gonna do it.  May as well start getting myself out there, y'know?

you absolutely should. i swear its a lot easier to get noticed here though i think, like we've only been playing a year maybe and we're growing fast. it's just LA

A year??  That's so fast.  Man I've gotta get out there some day.

you sure do. how was your weekend?

Boring.  I spent most of it helping my father clean out the garage, wrote some new stuff.  What did you do, Mr. Rockstar?

lol what happened to that party you were going to? i went out man I don't even remember what I did last night we got so fucked

I didn't end up going we'll probably go this weekend instead.  Actually I might have some friends over Tuesday while my father's out of town.  It must've been a lot of fun then lol.

that sucks. sounds like a shitty weekend. does your sister live at home with you guys i can't remember if you told me

Yeah, I did she does.  If I'm extra nice to her she won't tell on me lol

lol better start doing her chores then. you wanna show me some of your new stuff? do you start with lyrics or music?

I already did her laundry today lol.  Sure, how do you want me to show you?  I always start with the lyrics, it helps me get an idea of where I'm going.  You write any of the stuff for your band?

yeah some of the lyrics but the lead does most of the music, he's just got an ear for it. whatever is easier for you, depends on how much you have I guess? we can call if it helps.

Not too much, its mostly bits and pieces.  Yeah we can call if you want that would be cool.

Alright give me a sec

USA/Canada Part:3

 I reach Rock Bottom.....AGAIN!

REPUBLIC, NEW ORLEANS

An interesting city, I always shudder when I see the Dome downtown tho’, after hearing the stories of life just after Hurricane Katrina. A lot of homeless people here too. It immediately strikes you in every city we visit how many there are. From New York, stretching to San Francisco, Detroit being particularly bad hit, they are everywhere;(

Ah well…there but for the grace of god eh people? Hotel is nice and close to the gig and after an early night I am able to hit the gym, which is nice. Another gig off the list today, and I must admit this is a long tour and I am feeling it very much. I suppose that’s the problem of having so much on at home with the Legal cases, such a shame it ruins everything. When they said,

‘Cocaine is god’s way of telling you you’ve got too much money!’

They definitely should have said Litigation! Jesus!

Anyway nice walk to the gig and we are off. Gig goes well until the JD set, when two kids start pogoing and an older lady at the front takes offence and goes mental, punching one of these guys twice in the face, as fast as Jason Statham! Must be one of these Hockey moms we hear about. It calms down but she shows no remorse even when I warn her to take it easy. What a girl! She looks like Sarah Palin on steroids. Apart from that the gig goes well, strange how I am starting to recognise a lot of the audience members from when we have played a place before…my memory seems to be improving…must be all the exercise. I walk home with Andy Poole, particularly nice in the light of the Supermoon we’ve having at the moment. Bed is welcome. Early-ish start to…..

 TERMINAL WEST, ATLANTA.

 Getting a bit fed up with airports I must admit. Longing for a train station;)

The only fun to be had here is, Pottsy having lost his passport, has to use his driving license to travel, and it singles him out as being foreign and ‘Of special interest’ (I always said he was special;) so he gets a ‘special’ very intimate pat down which is funny to watch, his facial reactions being very interesting to the shall we say…probing;) Nice quick trip and after doing my laundry (again) we are back at another gig. This goes very well from start to finish, with an older audience than usual. Another sell out, which as the guy said, ‘Pretty good for a Tuesday night!’ Glad to get back to bed….knackered! Later start today, which is nice and the last flight for a while too.

 PLAZA LIVE, ORLANDO.

I have been here many times with the kids over the years, so it seems like an old friend. I used to think it was hilarious when a huge plane load of English families after no sleep on the flight, would arrive and get taken straight to the hire car place and given a left hand drive motor, then being let loose on America’s roads, sleep deprived, jet lagged, with a car full of screaming children. Watching them from a safe distance, go the wrong way round the roundabouts was my favourite (I was lucky, I had driven here a lot). I look out of the Gym window onto Orlando downtown, and it is very pretty. But again, has it’s own fair share of wandering homeless (at least it’s warm here I suppose:). It feels to me like there is revolution in the air. The divide between rich and poor seems so marked. They co-exist at the moment but it makes you wonder? It really does;(

The gig venue tonight is where poor Christina Grimmie got shot by an obsessed fan, and it’s only when it is drawn to my attention, that I realise how many mentions of guns we have, in this particular set. New dawn fades, Perfect Kiss, love Vigilantes, 1963, in particular. Our own fault, The Hacienda’s legacy I suppose;(

It’s a big hall this one, it goes well, not great, but we play tight and after a dedication to a new ‘Friend of Bill W.’ on New Dawn Fades we are done. Crawl to bed. Rest in peace Christina.

 CULTURE ROOMS, FT, LAUDERDALE 18/11/16

It is 10 years ago today that New Order split up, in Buenos Aries, Argentina.

I do wonder if they’ll ever get back together? But to be honest we are more at each other’s throats now than we were then;( Ah well, got a much better anniversary coming up on the 27th! Nice drive, and our driver is Keith who used to engineer at Amazon/Parr Street Studios in Liverpool. A lovely man, who came to Orlando, Florida to engineer a Deep Purple album for three months. It took 15! He met a girl and never went back. Can’t say I blame him, the place and the weather is lovely. Gig is great from start to finish. Fantastic.

 RITZ THEATRE, TAMPA

Another lovely drive! So strange watching the Alligators sunning themselves on the waterways by the side of the Freeway. We stop for a ‘Bojangles’ chicken dinner (on my recommendation) I thought it would bring back great memories of my first time in New York in 1980 when I lived on it for days (wonder if I put that in the book?) but today it is shit! Absolutely inedible! Good thing Terry Mason wasn’t here he would have been devastated. Meet Tony Mikaledes with his partner Mary for dinner, which is nice. Tony was a commercial/indie Dj in Manchester and then went into promotion, working for Island Records and Factory Records and managed my Revenge project for a short while. He has lived here for years and loves it. Ybor City District where we are is ‘Rockin’ with a great atmosphere. Another great gig from start to finish and we have great fun watching the trannies making there way to The Showbar next door (Chicks with Dicks our Crew used to call them;)!

ORANGE PEEL, ASHEVILLE.

Early morning and the two flights to get here wears us out.

Pottsy has still not got a passport, so is still travelling on his driving license, legal but gets that extra security from the TSA again. Today again, nearly every ‘Nook and Crannie’, poor devil. This is a nice place, very small town America, but can you believe it? Boasts the Moog Synthesiser factory. Robert Moog invented his synthesiser in the mid 60’s and the factory is still here in Asheville. Barney loved the Moog sound always has. From the first time Martin Hannett introduced us to via his old Moog Modular system for Joy Division’s Unknown Pleasures album.

As soon as we got one ourselves in 1981, it was used to great effect on Power, Corruption and Lies, Blue Monday, Lowlife etc etc., and many, many others, I bet he still uses one today;) We have a lovely trip round the factory and it is great to see how many new ones are being manufactured and shipped. If your wondering why I look weird in the photos, it’s because I have my gym kit on….honest!

CAT’S CRADLE, CARRBORO.

Nice drive makes a lovely change. This is a lovely town and a great gig we have played a few times before. Tonight is no different and another ‘Sell out’ greets us very, very warmly. Gig goes very well from start to finish. We are getting very professional if I say so myself. Flying tomorrow so rush to bed for some much needed shuteye;)

 HOWARD THEATRE, WASHINGTON.

Short flight to another strange place for us, at the world famous 9.30 Club we first played as Revenge, then Monaco, then The Light twice, but never did well, not much reaction? So much so that we have not been back here for 5 years;(

Thankfully, tonight could not be more different. We smash it! This is a wonderful old theatre, which was used to for all the old soul acts, James Brown et al. Washington seems to have been gentrified since the last time we were here, in 2011, it was rough, which is strange for the Capital city but I am sure Trump will sort that out even more now eh readers?;) One thing he may never sort out is the Rats! My abiding memory ever since the 90’s at the 9.30 is that the place teemed with Rats, and tonight is exactly the same. As we smoke outside they are everywhere and fearless (No cracks about being in good company with the Politician’s, please). Sign for some lovely people outside and then back to bed.
