stray kids as romantic tropes

with little to no context

ot8 not proofread guys my bad

bangchan - friends to lovers

like wbk... he's got that friendly aura and i think he'd just befriend you thinking that you were just a pretty person but it turns into something more. he'd be very open about his feelings when he realizes how he feels i think.. and he'd confess with flowers and a nice dinner hoping to charm you but there's no charming needed cause he's just the best guy ever.

minho - college sweethearts

OKAY SO what i think is that it would be a love at first sight oh trust he fell first and harder and like campus would be so fun starting from the day you first saw him until you finally got together like.. he'd be flirty all the time omf like he'd mess with you playfully and hope you would catch the hints. he'd catch himself grinning and smiling after talking to you and all his friends would tease him about you but he wouldn't care cause he is head over heels TRUST!!!

changbin - newly married couple

oomfs i think he'd be the perfect husband i'm not even playing like walk with me... he goes to the gym, he can cook, he would be down extremely bad for his partner LIKE TRUST. his love language doesn't exist cause he uses them all like his rich ass would buy anything you asked for. when people ask him if he's bored of you now that you're married he's just shocked because how could someone be bored.

hyunjin - strangers to lovers

as i have said before he just looks like a stranger you'd meet on a trip and he's just the best person you've ever met like.. you'd stay with him for a while maybe and it would be the best ever: treats for you every morning, flowers, presents, kisses, portraits, paintings, hugs and lots of hopeless romantic stuff. he just has that mysterious aura that makes him the perfect stranger that turns into something more.

han - brothers best friend

he'd be your brothers awkward friend that comes over once in a while and talks to you looking at the floor cause he got no game and he's loser number one but once you get more comfortable he's just so funny like you find yourself laughing at his stupid jokes all the time. i think he would always have a crush on you since the day you met but won't say it cause you're his friends sister.

felix - childhood friends to lovers

liiikeeee doesn't he just feel like it or am i crazy... he's so warm and cute and fuzzy.. you two have been friends forever (there would probably be a lot of like right people wrong time) and you both realize you like each other but are too scared to confess in fear of ruining your friendship so it all remains a secret till it probably slips out from one of his friends and well you know the rest.

seungmin - enemies to lovers

like everyone says this but i think its so so accurate like he'd be perfect in an academic rivals or office enemies; he would tease and annoy you at any occasion and then realize he's fallen for you but won't admit it ever, and i think he'd become even more annoying when he realizes that he likes you just to suppress those feelings.

jeongin - secret relationship

so errrm hear me out okay, it's the way he's so careful with stuff but he's also so secretive about his feelings i feel like when he finally gets himself to confess and you agree he just needs time. that time would be spent hiding every kiss and holding hands under the table and then walking back to wherever you need to go pretending you're still just friends when you're much more, but only you two need to know that.

i might write these extensively and seriously but i just wanted to put this out there cause ive been thinking about it for so long

Ambience Synesthesia tutorial blog

rambled this out because I didn't have inflight wifi otw home and the turbulence was too crazy to draw

Buying the ticket

erm so they only dropped the tickets like slightly less than a month before lol kinda insane

The concert tickets were sold on Damai so you need a CN number or know/pay someone with one who'd buy it for you which is what I did by recommendation (A tier 1280 + 400 'service fee' [apparently it would have been cheaper if they only helped you half way or something but i wasnt gonna risk running into a payment hiccup so]) Iirc they sold it in two batches but I don't remember the ratio split between first and second wave…

I got a ticket for 5/5's afternoon show (so the second last performance), I DID meet an oomf who said they managed to snag a ticket for themselves on their own (without a Professional Ticket Snatcher) so its not too impossible to attain on your own I think??? (I didn't get a CN number until like 2 days before I flew back home soo)

Professional Ticket what?? Uhhh apparently there's a whole industry/scene for this you look for listings on xianyu/taobao etc for people to buy on your behalf, you have to give them your real name and identification number (so for foreigners it'd be your passport number) for verification purposes during entry so yknow yea

getting there

You could cab directly to the venue but my friend signed us up for the free shuttle bus (they had freebies last year but not this time) and before we boarded they gave us like free water and bread (apparently free raincoats too on rainy days) which was nice of them but also insane because. the venue doesn't allow you to bring food/drinks in so a lot of people were leaving A LOT of unopened bottles near the gate and I saw a venue staff just throwing them all into the bin (HOPEFULLY JUST TO CARRY THEM AWAY IN ONE GO AND NOT FOR STRAIGHT DISPOSAL….) They drop you off near the venue but you don't go in directly, there's a 'Doctor break room' where most people are seated waiting to be ushered in batches into the venue, but also a lot of people standing around on one side of the room swapping/offering merch

merch swap

ive been told this is a very concert culture thing but i feel like its kind of different because a lot of these are so high quality ike…you could sell them at Artist Alleys but here they are just distributing for free if you have a E2 60 blorbo lmao or whatever (there seems to be a tiny…? minority that prints official art but most of them seem to be handdrawn/made)

i was too unprepared for this lol i did exchange some of my old stickers (missed out on a collapsal plastic fan bc my brain lagged when the guy asked me and i went to my auto 'sorry i dont have any merch' response' :( regretted this bc the room got a little hot from the amount of people in there and i was wearing like 3 layers with that fan on my mind)

from people watching a lot of trades are arranged beforehand on weibo/other sites unless you're willing to yell WHO WANTS TO TRADEEE/anyone wants freebies (a lot of people were also wearing 'Feel Free to Swap Merch/Ask for Freebies' tags) which i was definitely not brave enough to do lol… met up with an oomf i got to know from last dec when i attended an arknights only and they gave me some birbs and charms (bottom of post), there was someone who got a free LGD zine and charm from me bc i posted on wb that id give a free copy to anyone with a Mod 3 swire/swummer LMFAO

I had 2 more people to meet but, uhhh so I bought an esim for mobile data and it would intermittently lose signal here and there which was a little annoying when getting coffee but it just died entirely when i reached the venue and it was kind of Dire because i was waiting for one more friend who was coming over from the fes and i couldn't contact them lmao. told the friend i came with to go in first because I thought if my food got confiscated at least my oomf could see it beforehand LOL

waited outside in a light drizzle for an hour trying to trouble shoot my data to no avail and ended up borrowing a staff's wifi hotspot to get my entry qr code (I actually bought a second data roaming plan on my local sim but i quite stupidly did not check the country coverage and only learned later that night that 'Asia' doesn't cover China kuxiao) she was so nice i was (bow emoji) so sorry to trouble you im a stupid gaijin and she was like no its ok enjoy shanghai!! pien

spent a good 30min next to this board praying for data to no avail

the show

erm anyway because of that clownery above i more or less missed the first piece (the one w the goated hoho) but at least i wasnt the guy next to me who went for a bathroom break right before starset came up

The live singing this year was definitely an improvement I think… I can't really remember the setlist off the top of my head but I'm sure someone else has already listed it out, there were a couple of new pieces that weren't related to the concert groups like a Babel/Kazdel?? one sung in Latin, a Victoria…? one (in victorian ofc) also an Amiya (? just remembering by the visuals they used lol) one in Japanese

ohh yeah so almost every track would start with like a faction logo transitioning in from 3d to 2d which was cool but also amusing because it was honestly bringing quite the 'I will Make Your Company Logo Into 3D Fiverr' vibes

Since I missed the first piece idk if any of The Dreamer(s) got 3D models but The Pilgrim(s why are they all singular) had Kaltsit playing on that piano (there was also a replica of that piano on stage the white one complete with 'Arknights' text on it lmao) and Siege being cool running around in 3D (and ofc Eureka during her denpa number) it was very cool but man... its a pity the other characters in the group just get their live2d png during the beginning and effectively get sidelined lool compared to say Phenomenal Agents idk if i like this tradeoff but that eureka bit was so good sheesh #NOVAFIVE⭐ULTRALIVESWEEP

The other stuff was really great too looking at you Lone Trail medley…!!!!! I might be wrong but I... assume... you're encouraged to karaoke bc they always show the lyrics on screen… I couldn't even hear myself anyway but it was very fun singing songs you can't get on joysound/etc with a whole crowd going at it too (even if most of them would only sing 1-2 lines of the chorus)

Mary Clare did Radiant (they had the lyrics scrolling on the sides very cool) and iirc the Throne group's song...? Radiant was so fun live

Starset did Monster > Telescope and when the latter ended they were like Bye! and we(?) started yelling ENCORE--awkwardly because idk how they do it here (I was half expecting it to be JP style 'an-call-roo' but a bunch of us just yelled en-core en-core here and there until they returned to perform Infected) speaking of yelling.. between every piece when they had to switch sets people would just yell memes or skill names (like Dage's) to pass the time or sth i barely caught half of whatever they were memeing about

did i forget to mention anything else uhhh originium rock turntable for Guide Ahead's boss theme/Dossoles Lobby and they had IS4 medley live throat singing very cool also the dancers they got for silbenherze's boss theme good stuff...

iirc after starset was like a behind the scenes video of how HG prepared for AS and a recorded lowlight video saying some stuff that i forgot LOL just some thank you message basically. 9.5/10 bc no missy/shu EP live

i just realised i forgot to display all the merch from the A tier ticket but w/e. light stick photo ft. merch swaps/gifts from friends and strangers 🥹 (the iffy lenticular card was literally dropped into my bag by an iffy coser (wearing the LT outfit..?!) while waiting for the cab LMAO)

#arknights #bentotexto #will blog about the festival in another post because i dont think theyll let me post that many photos #yeah i got the logos/theresa pillow but im giving it to a friend

i totally agree!! i didnt know how to word my thoughts on it, because just suggesting the two binaristic options of "trans or intersex" felt both limiting and not true to the overall subject. so thank you for putting to words something i was trying to get at!! ive been loving your analysis of homestuck recently so its really nice to be able to just pick your brain about it sometimes.

also because i like adding a prompt for you to respond to that isnt just my praising you, how do you think this whole conversation affected kankri on beforus? textually i think its pretty clear, that in contrast to karkat's closeted archetype, kankri is more meant to be that one guy you knew in high school in the GSA club. well intentioned but definitely too caught up in the literal linguistics of it all

happy to help :) and happy to respond to more asks. as you can see.

i have never thought super long and hard about kankri in this respect because well he is very messy lol and i've never been able to land on a single interpretation of him that i think entirely fits within homestuck's themes. which is probably fine because probably nobody was ever meant to put all that much thought into him anyway. but i think the caste-oriented interpretation of mutant blood maps pretty easily onto the queer interpretation here, in that kankri is very much a gay guy who doesn't want to acknowledge that being gay doesn't totally absolve him of the privilege of being a guy.

i guess there are holes in that interpretation, not least of all the fact that it's never really insinuated that kankri is Actually gay in the way karkat is lol? all of his noteworthy romantic feelings in both lives are toward women; his quadrant-transcending relationship with the disciple is definitely "queer", so you might jokingly categorise him as "gay for girls", but i don't think he ever even really comes across as LIKING women that much. and he dislikes women in about the same way you'd expect a straight guy to dislike women. in this sense asexual kankri is a very amusing interpretation even if it very clearly is not true.

kankri being "the troll version of gay" also kind of comes with the implication that maybe being a special little gay guy comes with perks and privileges on Beforus which is, again, funny to imagine but prooooobably not the intended message hussie was going for? lol? unless it was. oomf @odddaysgeorge's interpretation of the message behind Beforus immediately came to mind when i got this ask: "having all their basic needs met and their identities affirmed turns these queer teenagers into neurotic entitled perverts complaining about fake problems." i don't necessarily agree that the intention behind Beforus was this antagonistic, my read on act 6 is that it broadly approaches queer topics in pretty good faith, but it's certainly not an inaccurate read on meenahquest. and i certainly think "move aside entitled gayboy, a real feminist is talking" is a sentiment that broadly aligns with hussie's attitude toward the girl alpha trolls versus the boy alpha trolls. it's just that. again. i can't even be that sure that kankri is even supposed to be gay. so you see what i mean when i say this shit is messy

Pomp and Circumstance

( ive been wanting to make a college roommates au for a while !! it was requested by @lazyscoutnumberone but i also wanted to make one based off this post by @amolecularmachine, @spobforpresident and @shoelace-and-friends !!! i wrote more but this seemed like a good place to cut it off so i might post a lil more later !!! c: )

Sportacus carried his small, heavy suitcase up the flights of stairs effortlessly, his muscular body shaking with more excitement than exertion as he climbed the 48th stair (if he’d counted right, that is) and pushed open the door to reveal the small, crowded hallway of college students moving into their new dorms, just two days before the semester officially started.

“Oh boy!” he said, aloud, and before he could see all the odd glances in his direction he turned his attention to the key in his hand, the one with the number E23 engraved on the head. He looked back up and, suitcase in hand, began to follow the numbers as they got higher and he moved down the hallway.

E20...E21...E22… E23!!

With a wide smile on his face, he knocked on the door. There was a clatter inside before it swung open.

Sportacus was met with a sturdy chest that led to a thin stomach, both clad in a purple and mahogany striped turtleneck. He looked up to see a disheveled-looking pompadour perched above two eyes, grey and dark and beautiful like a stormy sky. Sportacus took a step back and shook his head to refocus, and stop himself from staring. He looked back at his roommate and smiled.

“Hiya!” he said.

The tall adolescent’s face was pale and deprived of sunlight, but a light red colored his cheeks intermixed with specks of pale, doughy white. His soft lips parted into a sneer.

“Yes?” he asked impatiently. Sportacus either didn’t hear or ignored the attitude.

“Hello! You must be Robbie Rotten! I’m Sportacus, your roommate!” Sportacus chirped. Robbie sighed softly and stepped back to let the elf in.

“You didn’t have to knock. Don’t you have a key?”

“Yeah!” Sportacus answered, pulling the key out of his pocket to show Robbie. “I didn’t want to walk in incase you were changing or something!”

Robbie scoffed and shut the door as Sportacus gently put down his suitcase. The tall boy slumped to where it was and moved to pick it up.

“I’ll show you to the bedroom,” he grumbled, and almost immediately once the suitcase was off the carpeted floor Robbie dropped it back down with an ungraceful oomf. “What do you have in here? Weights?!” he exclaimed. Sportacus laughed.

“Yes!” he said, and picked it up effortlessly. Robbie watched him jealously and then mumbled something to himself and led Sportacus forward into the one bedroom and to the modest double-decker bed. It seemed Robbie had already chosen the bottom bunk, clothes and toiletries and candy wrappers were strewn across it.

“Oh, nice! Do I get the top bunk?!” Sportacus cheered.

“Uh, yeah,” Robbie answered. Sportacus trotted to the latter and pulled himself and his suitcase onto the bed, and then layed down on his back and looked at the roof. He could already tell that his college experience with his education and his wonderful roommate would be a good one, and he couldn’t wait to get to his class in two days and meet all his classmates.
