the golden fruit duology ❧ jaemin [masterlist]
❧ series word count: 32.0k
❧ warnings (vary by part): it wouldn’t be a starlightkun fic without some cursing!, mentions of death/dead people but like in the context of him being hades, probably more legal jargon than there should be but i tried to make it as easy to understand as possible i promise (and if you can’t understand some of it, it’s probably not plot-relevant anyway), oh there’s a short scene with a weirdly graphic depiction of eating fruit à la denethor and the tomato in return of the king (iykyk) sorry if that gives you the ick, it gets pretty existential at some points but never overtly angsty
❧ genre: fluff, greek gods/goddesses au, hades jaemin, human reader, it’s another nades au but this time two years late to the trend!, paralegal reader, bit of a ham-fisted persephone allegory, inspired by the gods/goddesses assigned to the work it unit in 2020 for this video, with appearances by aphrodite johnny, bestie jeno, coworkers kun and sicheng, and galactic-threat level menace yangyang
❧ author’s note: omg hiiii i’m back! anyway, enjoy this fun little nades au i’ve prepared for y’all w all the love in my heart! not super accurate to the original greek myths, i was just having fun with hades as a concept rather than a strict characterization. i also watched mike flanagan’s ‘midnight mass’ and read john milton’s ‘paradise lost’ during the time i was writing this so get ready for some slight spiritual/religious iconography and overtones

I like to feel your muscles taut and relax, the sinews that bind them pull and release, your blood pump through your veins. I like knowing that all that you are, has miraculously come together and is here, with me.

Thoughts on the whole debate of people writing Elvis as gay/trans when he was straight and cis? I don’t think Elvis would like it, the man was prideful and would probably hate to see his name associated with those works but I also don’t think he would like 97% of the fics written about him on here regardless if it was m/m or not. I think the solution is to just stop over-sexualizing him altogether
hi anonnnn. I missed half of this debate tbvh but I know that there's fics like that out there on this app and possibly other websites. I made a comment on this, talking to a friend in our Discord server, saying what I think about it. I'm guessing that's why people are in my DMs right now, lmao. Anyways, I don't know, I rarely read fanfiction because I'm simply too busy with work and life and I'm a picky reader woops
But that's not the point. It's not about me reading it because I don't. It's about how Elvis is portrayed in lots of these fics and that's also what I said in Discord. And yes, it's fiction, but I do agree with you, nonnie. Though there's absolutely nothing wrong with writing fanfiction, it's an outlet for people and I'm not stopping anyone from writing it. All I've ever done is state my opinion on things and if people want to be so extremely offended by it, then that's not my problem. Like I can scroll past those fics (which I do), people can scroll past my opinion too. It's not about me (or people who agree) not liking these fics, it's how Elvis is portrayed. How he's put in a box/having put a label on him, but if people wrote fics about a gay person being straight and engaging in heterosexual intercourse, there would be a freaking storm of shit.
To me (see, this is the start of someone stating their opinion), it's just strange to be writing about him like that and like you said, anon, I don't think he would like to be written about like that, but I'm not stopping anyone from doing so or telling them that they're disgusting or anything else in such direction. I'm only giving MY OPINION.
Some people might not put their opinions on some things on their blog, some do. I do. And if anyone is offended by that, it's honestly not my problem.
Most people already know how I feel about Elvis being oversexualized. When it comes to fanfiction, I think there's a time and place for everything. If one writes only smut, then yeah I feel like that hyper-oversexualizes him and that's definitely not my cup of tea but there's plenty of amazing fanfic writers out there who don't do that. But like I said (because some people don't seem to understand this so I'll say it again), I can't stop anyone from writing what they write and that's not my intention. It. Is. An. Opinion.
Honestly, I don't have much else to say and this is the one and last time I'll speak on it, because people wanna be petty and send hate on anon (bc of that thing I said last week, lol. You know.) because apparently they don't have much of a life outside of this app or they're scared to come off anon, who knows. This is what I think about it and I'm not going to change my opinion. I'm not telling anyone they have to agree with me and if someone doesn't like what I have to say, they can kindly unfollow.

this is just a very questionable shin jidai english tl
sorry~
Throw a punch for a one-hit Kill
Let’s bid farewell to the old era
We’ve defeated it for good
We’ll make a declaration here and now
It’s time to raise the curtains on a new era
Let’s raise a ruckus
How long are you gonna remain here? You’re such a burden
Isn’t it about time for you to leave?
Even though you glare at me for my bad manners
I’m sick and tired of your outdated rules
I don’t need your boring instructions
Who cares about expectations? I’ll just fight head-on
Don’t make light of my abilities
Even a fallen mic onstage still counts as a drop
We’ll sing till our throats completely burn dry
We’ll dance till our bodies collapse
The current era has gone stale and we’re longing for more
So let’s fight it out the moment our eyes meet
Throw a punch for a one-hit Kill
Let’s bid farewell to the old era
We’ve defeated it for good
We’ll make a declaration here and now
It’s time to raise the curtains on a new era
Let’s raise a ruckus
Competing and clashing with each other for all eternity
Keeping our distance from each other
Affirming that we’re necessary to each other
Entrusting our lives to each other, we live on
You’ve been cast out of the leading role
You’ll never be able to erase your loss from your memory
Feeling sympathy for you, as you ran away tearfully,
I should’ve apologised with a “sorry” before you got hurt
I turned down your challenge for a fight,
I’d only be seen as a villain if I clashed with you in your victimised state
Don’t show me this side of you
I’ll be sure to forget it all by tomorrow. bye bye
There is nothing that cannot be broken
There is nothing that we cannot achieve
There will definitely be a future for us
So let’s fight it out the moment our eyes meet
Fire a bullet for the Kill
A single hit to your vitals spells the end
We’ve defeated you for good
Let’s show the new generation
A gamble of life and death
Checkmate
Hurry up and realise that you’re no match for us, that you’re way too weak for us
You don’t even have the right to speak to us
We’re the only special ones around
Too bad for you, just give up already
Can you hear us?
Are you wavering?
Are you feeling joy all the way down into your cells?
We’ll transmit it to you through your skin
Empty your thoughts and just feel it
It’s the birth of a legend
We’re passing the torch to you
You can’t move forward if you keep grieving forever
Just abandon your fate
Having accumulated things like feelings of pity,
We will
Throw a punch for a one-hit Kill
Let’s bid farewell to the old era
We’ve defeated it for good
We’ll make a declaration here and now
It’s time to raise the curtains on a new era
Let’s raise a ruckus
Competing and clashing with each other for all eternity
Keeping our distance from each other
Affirming that we’re necessary to each other
Entrusting our lives to each other, we live on
Let’s sing
Let’s dance
With this song
We’ll defeat it all
