#no he did not get cancelled for saying he would continue to buy work from white men

pathetic sub!yandere boys ♡

pathetic, disgusting yandere boys that can't help but be obsessed with you.

wc: 1k+ words | masterlist | part two

dom!fem!reader, stalking, begging, unhealthy relationship, mention of fucking

note: THIS WAS SUPPOSED TO BE SHORT

Yandere boys are honestly adorable. But not just any regular yandere boys, im talking about pathetic boys that slowly turn possessive and less innocent the more obsessed they are with you.

The ones that stalk you in and out of school as they take pictures of you when you're not looking, even sometimes up your skirt when you're turned around! The ones that offer to help you with everything during school, blushing whenever you thank him and give him a compliment before rushing towards the nearest bathroom to jerk off cause they got hard from the small praise you gave them. how pathetic!

Yandere boys that would try their best to become your best friend, even going long lengths to hang out with you every second you're free.

You were going to go to the carnival with a friend? Suddenly that friend has to cancel on you because they feel sick, not knowing that your yandere added something weird to their lunch.

A friend asked if you wanted to hang with them later and you agreed? Thats weird because now they're not picking up their phone or answering their texts. Well guess who stole their phone and hid it somewhere where they wouldn't find it.

Whenever you're sad, your yandere will buy you loads of snacks and comfort you as best as they can.

Its cute really, how they try so hard to hide their obsession with you from you, even going as far as to anonymously threaten your friends that tell you how weird and creepy they are.

But everytime your friends warn you, you just smile back and them and say that [character] is just super nice to you and thats all.

Your yandere boy is so desperate for you that it's so pathetic yet so cute at the same time.

They think that you have no clue of his intentions or what he's done but little does he know, you actually do.

You know how they stalk you, how they try to separate you from your friends, how they're absolutely obsessed with you.

And so when you come over to their house to work on a class project, you're not surprised to find a big journal that has a heart on the cover with your name on it peeking out from under their bed when you come in their room. Opening it only to find lewd drawings and pictures of you alongside long paragraphs that your yandere wrote.

Reading the paragraphs and how it describes how every desire [character] has with you, even being specific as to say the exact details that would happen with each situation.

The first one you read includes how they want to get fucked by you, describing how they want to be bent over their bed as they cry and sob from the pleasure you give them.

It continues with you making him cum multiple times as you wrap a hand around his neck, leaning towards their ear to whisper degrading praise to him.

You continue reading the rest, watching as his desires turn darker and darker as they become even more specific than before, as if they actually happened before.

But before you could reach the end, your yandere opens the door with some snacks in his hand. Poor him really, cause he would have never expected for you to find out about his obsession with you.

But you're glad you did because now you get to watch as he pauses at the door, dropping the snacks in shock when he sees you with his journal in hand. Watch as his eyes flood with tears as he begins to shake from fear and shock, his face turning red as he tries to choke back a sob. Watch as he stumbles in front of you, landing on his knees as he looks into your eyes to no longer see any love in them but instead something dark that makes him shiver. Maybe it's disgust, maybe it's something entirely else.

They beg you to forget what you just saw, tears flooding down their face. It's just so embarrassing for them that you found out about their obsession with you. You can't help but coo at them as you tilt their head towards you, pressing your foot against the bulge in his pants because of course he couldn't help but get hard in this situation. That's just how pathetic they are, you think its cute though.

Hearing them let out a pitiful whimper as he lays his head on your thigh, pleading you with their eyes. Big cute eyes that try to convince you that he's done nothing wrong.

The situation is no longer about the journal when he starts to let out adorable noises when you continue to grind your foot against his bulge, making him quickly cum in the matter of seconds.

But even though he just came just a few moments ago, the way you call them pathetic with the disgust in your voice makes him hard again as he hump your foot.

They'll let you do anything to them. Dress them up, degrade him, humiliate them, they dont care! They're yours to use.

Secretly, your yandere is grateful that you found the journal under their bed. They actually wanted you to. They wanted you to get disgusted as you read the contents within their journal.

They hoped that you would punish them for how lewd and disgusting they are and they would be so grateful when you actually do.

Make the situations in his journal that he forever dreamed of come true as all he can do is moan and scream your name as you use him like a toy for your pleasure. Make him fall apart underneath you as his body gets littered with bite marks that compliment his body so nicely.

If he's too loud, shut him up with a choker or even better, your panties. The way his eyes would roll back as he cums for the nth time that night. But you're not done with him yet, oh not anytime soon.

You have to punish him for everything that he's ever done to you.

The whole situation is messed up but no matter how obsessed they are with you, you wouldn't ever trade them for the world. After all, they're your yandere.

ty for reading to the end! ❤ - chaepink

you are in love | 24. match made in ocean

- gyuthegoofy started a video call.

- ynthesexy, hanthebitch, and wonythemvp joined the call.

audio directory: wonyoung, leehan, gyuvin, y/n

—

"so what are we supposed to be looking at here?"

"the fundraiser proposal.... again."

"someone needs to hold me back before i commit a REAL HEINOUS CRIME against that hagrat excuse of a principal."

"i'm so glad you said that over call instead of text 'cause..."

"shut up."

"wait guys focus please..."

"right sorry."

"i'm using all the brain juice i got i swear but this is so hard."

"right? i have no idea how serenades didnt pass..."

"as much as i'd hate singing around with y/n it was a good idea as a fundraiser. low cost."

"matches the school tradition too. i don't know why so many people confess around christmas time, but it could've worked!"

"for real. hagrat lim."

"you're going down with y/n."

"absolutely not! how could the ever-so-lovely scholar kim gyuvin be disrespectful to his teachers! meanwhile school jock swim captain lee y/n..."

"I'M NOT EVEN A JOCK?"

"we're definitely getting off topic."

"oops..."

"anyways..."

"i think we should definitely stick to something on the romance side. it just sells more?"

"yeah, we can make it a little general for people who wanna do it for friends or family too."

"okay so... romance... romantics... what's something you guys would like to receive?"

"flowers without pollen."

"i laughed a bit i'm sorry."

"jellies!"

"candy could be low-cost, but won't the students feel like they could just buy them from the grocery or the cafeteria?"

"flowers could work. it's quite tiresome to pass by florist shops these days, so having them close by is convenient. sorry, y/n."

"i mean... i guess i'll be fine if i take the medicine before leaving?"

"i'm sorry y/n... we'll keep this as a backup idea so we can continue looking for something better and less... life threatening?"

"it's okay guys i don't mind it as long as principal lim gets off our back."

"we'll think of something else y/n... this'll just be the absolute last resort."

"speaking of flowers and y/n's pollen allergy though..."

"i know where this is going."

"I'M SORRY OKAY.... we just, or i, just wanna know!"

"didn't i tell you already??"

"details, y/n... details!!"

"I ALMOST DIED GYU..."

"LMAO PLEASE..."

"okay so you almost died... DETAILS!!"

"fine..."

"stay strong lee y/n..."

"we went to the cafe after practice, we talked about stuff. started with classes and how she's adjusting to the workload of juniors, then how i'm going around with colleges as an athlete. speaking of which, coach gave me a semi-scolding over text earlier today, but moving on."

"god he dumps the pressure of the swim team's success on you as if he isn't the literal COACH."

"for real like y/n is human too... hello?"

"yeah, then when we got to the cafe we had a mini argument over who was gonna pay but the cashier suggested to pay for our own, so that's what we did."

"you're so... anti-romantic."

"what? what did i do??"

"you're supposed to pay for her regardless, like never back down."

"NEVER BACK DOWN NEVER WHAT?"

"NEVER GIVE UP!!"

"but it was a date that dani asked for, so? kinda cancels out right, wony?"

"hm... i guess.. anyways, continue, y/n."

"well... yeah after i updated wony via text when i was in the toilet, we mostly talked about our interests and stuff. so me and movies, music, and mostly swim."

"90% swim. you might've bored her to death..."

"don't say that!"

"i'm being honest! she might've thought you were a fish in your past life or something..."

"she brought up swim in the conversation first actually! she said she swims a lot whenever she goes back home to australia during the summers."

"well isn't that a lovely surprise? match made in heaven!"

"match made in ocean.."

"she definitely knows how to keep y/n hooked that's for sure."

"oh yeah... great pair in that sense!"

"what were the other interests she talked about?"

"flowers, plants, nature in general! she's so outdoorsy."

"this is so ironic 'cause didn't you almost fail biology?"

"so that's where the park part came from..."

"no i did not almost fail bio... it just simply is my lowest scoring subject okay..."

"whatever you say!"

"but yeah that's when she brought up the park, and i just couldn't say no. she was talking about how this specific flower only bloomed in autumn and she wanted to see it at its first day."

"you didn't bother telling her you had an allergy?"

"she sounded so excited you guys i didn't want to ruin that... and i guess i kinda wanted to see the flowers too, they were really pretty! i'll show you pics."

"you couldn't say no to flowers... so you just put your life at risk instead?"

"i had a mask! and i didn't think it'd react that bad again."

"right."

"so yeah that's all that happened, really."

"sounds like you had a fun enough time to almost kill yourself!"

"OH MAN....."

"YES I DID! okay? i did have a fun time! she's really nice, cute, pretty, outgoing and all. we talked about going to a different nature park to rent bikes next time."

"i'm kicking my feet in the air right now you guys have no idea."

"we do actually."

"and don't bother showing us."

"yeah we can go a day without seeing your feet gyu."

"I DIDN'T EVEN OFFER?"

"you'd do it whether we liked it or not, unfortunately."

"she's right on that... AND DID YOU SAY NEXT TIME?"

"SHE DID!!"

"weren't we supposed to be finishing work so we could be free tomorrow? right we were! isn't that right, wony?"

"but... but that's... fine, yeah."

"wonderful! let's get back to work then!"

[chemicallady]

I'd like to say something at this point.

I'm reading here and there that some of you are changing their vision about Noah or reaching the point to ask yourself if you still want to be a supporter of him because of what that blog said about him.

I believe that what happened between Noah and this person is probably true, I don't have any reason to doubt about her. But.

As we say in Italy, you can't fully believe to a story if you ear just one-side bell. Noah doesn't have the chance to tell his side of the story because he has better things to do than care about gossip. More than that, it's a human being. We have to look at the big picture. I don't want to defend him at all costs, I actually really don't care because untill he will be a decent person in public (not saying bullshit like Ronnie, for instance) and continue to be polite to his supporters, we are cool. I think I'm far older than more than half of the rest of this (sometimes really bad) fandom because I was a teen in the years of the emo wave. You maybe don't know about the Used, early MCR, Radke himself, Oli Sykes before Sempieternal...

They were drugs addicted. Always drunks as skunks. Pissing on people, throwing mic stands in the pit, get FULLY NAKED on stage (I'll never forgot about this, Quinn Allman). They did some awful shit in front of they supporters and to their supporters. Things that nowadays would get them canceled. You have no idea (maybe, or maybe you have) of what was Warped Tour 2005. Or maybe it was 2004? I can't recall.

Bad Omens are TODDLERS compared to this people. Innocent, pure babies. They are nice, extrovert maybe but nice. No one can deny that. They dont do drugs, they dont get drunk on stage or fuck around this supporters. They have an healthy routine in tour, they are teaching people to not fucking fight, they don't fuel fights! Its NORMAL in metal to have a couple of injuries at concerts. Collateral damages. I was nine at my second concert and I saw Slipknot. One dude broke his nose in the pit. Blood everywhere.

It's not a fucking Hannah Montana show. Those dudes are suppose to be badass. Noah is not pretending to be someone else or faking a new personality. He is doing is job and he is delivering pretty good shows. In no time he will grab his crotch around moaning like Oli, give him fucking space to express himself and be feral. Like any other metal artist.

Another thing.

Bad Omens vip experience is not expensive. I don't have interest in buy vip pass for 30 second of nothing, I'd rather wait after the gig is over. I met so many artists this way and usually they are more appreciable if they don't have to move to the next city. BUT the costs is not that high. I bought vip pass for LP once and I had to work 3 months to save enough for it. And I was still living at my parents'!

The merch is high quality, they make new pieces every time.... that's their way to get real cash guys. During a tour you have to pay tons of shit: the venue, flights, hotels, your crew. And you pay in advance most of the time. I don't think they are rich bitches rn. They are doing fine probably but still many of them lives with friends. Having flatmates is many time a signal that you can't afford Ronnie Radke house in Paradise Palisades.

I heard that they weren't really nice during the set in Canada. Maybe Montreal or Toronto. Someone felt bad, someone dropped a surfer I don't know. I didn't follow this I here for dirty smutty ff. If I want to see them play I have tiktok. By the way you have to know that most of the time you can't see shit from stage. Because you have lights in your face pointing your eyes. So probably noah just say a crow surfer falling and thought 'here we go again, this people has no fucking etiquette', and he left the stage. Or maybe who owned the venue asked them to do so in case of emergency.

BTW there is no fucking etiquette at their concerts. I stand with him if he's pissed off about that. It's not that hard to understand that you have to stay at the sides if you're not used to metal shows or you don't want to be pushed. Other people is ruining your experience or maybe its simply not for you. I grew up in the moshpit and that's how we like our shit. We have no time for filming or make tiktoks, we live the moment (we, people who like metal music, I'm not gatekeeping. If you wanna learn how to survive the pit and enjoy the experience just message me.)

So, to sum up.

My point is that every one of us has that friend that was a dick with one or more girls we still love him because we know that he's a weirdo an not a bad person.

My advice is stop being obsessed with Noah and just enjoy his work. You dont know him, you cant tell. Don't believe everything, stories are getting bigger and bigger everytime their are told, and think about the fact that straight guys are mostly jerks. They take more time to mature and act like adults. We know that Noah is in therapy now, he open up about it, so he is aware that he is not perfect.

BECAUSE HE IS NOT. HE IS A HUMAN BEING AND HUMANS MAKE MISTAKES.

That's it.

I don't want to fuel fights as well but please stop being ridiculous and acting like he is insulting you personally. It's fine to be delululu but your pushing the limits.

Peace and love.

CBX recent response to SM

Released June 6

1) Re the 2018 Supreme Court decision. This case was different from the beginning as it related to Tao, a Chinese trainee. He was expected to be active overseas when he signed an exclusive contract.

CBX are all Korean and when they were trainees, it was not determined that they would work abroad at the time of the signing of the exclusive contract. While the members were trainees, SM uniformly had all three artists sign an annexation agreement to extend the contract by three years citing the intention of overseas expansion. In the case of Baekhyun, he was assigned to EXO-K (K stands for Korea) and was active in the domestic unit of EXO so it is really unfair that his contract was extended three years for overseas activities.

In the case of Xiumin and Chen, they were not assigned to unit activities in Korea or overseas at the time of the contract signing but were assigned to Chinese activities after the contract was signed.so the unfair practice of extending contracts for trainees who had not decided to work overseas still exists. In 2011, the KFTC ordered SM to refrain from engaging in acts against its trainees by applying an extended contract period to all trainees uniformly without considering individual circumstances of the trainee…SM signs contracts with trainees in advance of their debut even though the contract period starts with the debut. it is not permissible to extend the contract for an additional three years when it is not clear when the debut takes place, what subunit group they will participate in, and whether they will perform overseas. The continued behavior of SM after being ordered to correct themselves twice is baffling and is why KFTC should make a full investigation of all of SM’s trainee and artist contracts.

2) Contrary to SM’s press release, the lawyers and artists have not been provided with settlement documents. On 8 AM on 5 Jun, SM distributed a press release saying it would provide a copy of the settlement data. However, as of the close of business at 6 PM, SM has not provided any settlement data saying that the reports are not ready yet.

3) To the EXO fans, CBX would explain the negotiation process in detail 

A) Signed agency contracts in June 2010 and May 2011 and around Dec of last year, received a renewal letter from SM that added five years to the existing contracts, totaling 17-18 years. during the process, hired a lawyer and because the contract was unreasonable, requested adjustments 8 times but SM did not accept them. There was a steadfast refusal to accept any change and in the end, almost none of the requests were included. We felt the contract was unfair but had no choice but to sign. We heard stories that refusal to re-sign could hurt the members or team as a whole. At the time, SM said that they wanted everyone to make the choice to renew together but said to Bakehyun, you need to sign so other members can get paid. He was told he could cancel the contract at any time since the renewal hadn’t taken effect. At this time, Baekhyun was serving in the military. In order to keep EXO’s activities continuing without interruption, Baekhyun had no choice to renew even though he had a year left on his exiting contract. Baekhyun signed the contract out of loyalty to his members and to protect the team EXO.

B) Despite the fact that the contract was supplied to be delivered immediately upon signing, SM did not provide a copy until CBX requested it…We were puzzled by the suddenness and the haste at which the contract was renewed when there was more than a year left. After the renewal, there were several stores in the media over the SM takeover battle and we couldn’t help but wonder is that why they pulled out the contract and had us renew with a year left. 

C) SM did not give any explanation to the artists regarding (its buy out with Kakao). We had to figure out what was going on from the company’s press releases, as if we were outsiders. It was dumbfounding. During the acquisition process, it felt like the company didn’t value us at all. We were just a cog in the wheel who were just there to to do whatever the company ordered. 

D) While the company and the shareholders described as victims of long time problems such as Like Planning filled the media, no one talked about that the work of artists/staff who worked at SM were also violated for a long time before that. Over the past 12-13 years, its likely a significant portion of profits has been siphoned off inappropriately. Before we can believe SM’s promise that it won’t be like that from now on, there has to be a reckoning with the past that explains it all to the artists, fans, etc, only then can a fresh start be possible. The company was in disarray but the artists were even more confused. Everyone had doubts, but the artists were the ones who couldn’t take any chances. 

E) Seven requests for settlement data. Never imagined this would be such a difficult task for the company…it’s basic right of an artist. ‘Provision of materials’ is clearly stated in the contract but SM insists this is only ‘right of access’. Only a few news outlets and youtubers sympathetic to SM buy this argument.

F) For the fans. If someone is taking advantage of the memories, love, youth, hard work, passion that the members and fans have shared for 11 years, this should be corrected. If the SM community is forcing artists to put up with injustice, we think we should speak out. We value EXO more than anything. We love them and would never betray them, always put them first. Above all, we are not afraid of anything as long as we have our fans.

[lokislittlesigyn]

This past weekend I had .. A truly lovely experience. One that will stick with me forever, I believe.

Story time.

About a month ago I got an unexpected message that Tom Hiddleston would be at NYCC. I'd never heard of NYCC before - though I live within driving distance of NYC. I visited last year to see a Broadway play and visit the Loki figure at Madame Tussauds. But more, in 2019, my parents surprised me with tickets to see Betrayal on Broadway.

When we went to the show, I hoped to give Tom a letter, thanking him for the impact his work has had on my life, and get some art autographed. After the show - which was breathtaking and fantastic and funny and heartbreaking - I stood outside in the bitter cold and watched as Tom stayed outside for 2 hours talking to and autographing things for his fans. I distinctly remember saying his name and him looking me right in the eye - I asked if he'd take my letter. His response? "Of course I will." those words also stuck with me. spoken surely, as though kindness was deserved without question.

I got an autograph from him that day on my Playbill - they didn't allow non-Betrayal works to be signed. But I wanted, very badly, to see him again. Namely for a hug ... And to get that art signed.

In the spring of 2020 I heard about a drivable convention Tom was slated to be at. Tickets to see him were hundreds of dollars, but I was willing to pay.

Then the pandemic hit. Everything was cancelled.

Fast forward to last month. My birthday is coming up and I have no idea what to ask for, I have a steady job and I'm trying to give myself permission to buy fun things so I actually feel something when I get a paycheck. ive legit been getting money and just feeling nothing when it goes into my account. :')

And I did it. I bought a pass. An autograph pass, since the photo passes only allowed a few seconds with the individual - I wanted to talk even for a moment, not stand awkwardly while I try to make myself give a natural smile.

I'll spare you the details of the convention itself - it was huge, and while it was exciting, that wasn't the main draw. Tom was. I finished an art piece and had it printed, and took it with me to give to him. I also wrote a message on the back of it, so there was no risk of the message being lost (I don't know if he actually got my first letter. There's really no way to tell!). That message is private, but the art is not.

It took over two hours to get through the line. As someone with joint and sensory issues, this was .. Quite an experience. if i hadnt had my compression socks on i honestly dont think i would have made it. also i really need to look into what ADA passes they have because there is an ADA line and i continuously tell myself im not disabled enough for that but maybe i am, idk

But I got through the line and went around the corner where they had a curtained-off area, and there he was.

My first thought? "Oh, you're real."

its always surprising to see him in person.

But as happened before, the nervousness and excitement and heart beating out of my chest gave way to a quiet calm.

He took the piece I brought to be signed, and signed it. And I spoke up.

"I made this for you, if that's okay." And I handed him the above artwork.

He took it. Looked at it. "You're very talented."

I thanked him.

And he looked at me again.

Now, it's relevant to mention I am autistic. Eye contact is extremely difficult for me. It feels unsafe, exposed, scary. I can literally get physically unsettled if I look at someone's eyes too long. This man is the only person - not even my mother and father feel safe to look in the eye - that I can not just stand to look in the eye, but actually feel ... peaceful. i think it's because he has lokis eyes.

"Thank you. Have a good rest of your weekend."

He smiled at me, and I smiled back. I thanked him again.

It's a small interaction. It was in the last event on the last day of the con - this man was probably exhausted, and rightly so. I also want to be clear, I don't have any sort of parasocial feelings toward Tom, or even romantic/etc. feelings. Tom is his own person, with his own life and experiences, and I don't feel anything toward him other than a general fondness and gratitude. More importantly, he is married, a husband and a father, and that is so important to remember.

I'm simply grateful to him. Out of hundreds, possibly thousands of people over the weekend, he took a bit of time to look at the art, and say something kind, and to look at me and smile.

Photos weren't allowed in the area, or I would have wanted one. Likewise, there were tables between the attendees and him - I would've asked for a hug otherwise. But I don't regret the weekend, for all its ups and downs. I got to give Tom a present, and I know I'll see him again someday.

And maybe next time, I'll get that hug.

[messrsbyler]

any fluffy / angsty stonathan hcs?

even though there's tension between them that neither can explain (it's attraction and everyone else can tell it is attraction), jonathan and steve get to know each other better since steve continued with his job at family video after they stopped doomsday and since jonathan decided to skip a year to spend at hawkins and really figure out what he wanted to do next in life without having anyone intervene in that decision.

since jonathan is back at hawkins and since movie night becomes a tradition in the byers household once more, jonathan makes a routine to go one day a week at family video searching for new films to watch. at first he asks steve for any recommendations but steve's movie taste sucks in jonathan's humble opinion, so the tables turn and it's now jonathan who is recommending movies to steve

each week steve is more than proud and excited to report to jonathan that he did watch the movies jonathan recommended and they have a nice little chat of the things steve liked, the things he found to be perturbing, and a new list of recommendations they can discuss the upcoming week.

when a really awaited movie makes it to hawkins' theaters, steve buys two tickets. he wants to attend with jonathan, something about the idea makes him feel funny inside, but he also doesn't know how to ask because... well, he and jonathan get along just fine and they've become something close to once-a-week acquaintances now, but going to a movie together is more of a every-day friends thing and maybe they aren't there yet, even though steve, oddly enough, wants them to be there because he enjoys spending time with jonathan and he wouldn't mind if their usual weekly meetings at the family store grows to be more of a daily thing outside steve's job. so, when the time comes, steve plays it cool because he is cool and collected and this isn't a big deal at all, so no reason to be nervous (he is immensely nervous) and blurs out something about buying to tickets for the movie for a date but the girl cancelled last minute so now he is stuck with two tickets, one for him and one for a plus one and maybe jonathan could be that plus one if he has nothing going on or, you know, whatever. it's not a big deal and steve is cool and collected and totally not nervous.

jonathan looks amused but also taken by surprise. "so, you are asking me on a date, then?" he says which is meant to be a joke and everyone and their mother knows it's meant to be joke. steven knows it's a joke by the laugh that follows jonathan's words and the grin on his rather handsome face but for a second steve's brain stops working and goes oh, well. that wouldn't be so bad, now, would it?

from there they go in these not-dates more often and steve even gets invited to one of the byers' movie nights. steve and he get closer and closer until steve can't really deny it. he likes jonathan. in a friend way, sure, but also in a way where he wouldn't mind if jonathan slipped an arm across his shoulders or maybe... even kiss steve, or something...

steve also gets to see what a family looks like. dinner at a table that's not empty, inside jokes, and this cozy feeling that warmth his stomach whenever joyce smiles kindly at him and asks him how work was today. it's nice to not be in a huge and empty house for once.

steve also breaks through jonathan's shell and propels him to do things he wants to do and even be a little selfish at times. steve insists jonathan should live his life however he wants to live it since no one else will do it for him, and this really inspires jonathan to not be so afraid of going after the things he wants for once.

jonathan is quickly adopted by robin and they have a blast making fun of steve, robin in more of an upfront way while jonathan does it in a more sarcastic and quick-jab type of way. both of them keep a layer of fondness in their snarks, though, and steve only pretends to be angry at them but everyone can see through the surface at how much steve loves seeing his best friend and his... uh, friend-who-he-would-totally-kiss-stupid getting along

finally they dare to explore more in depth what their relationship means to each other. jonathan loves to see how well steve fits with his family, how he cares for will and el and has a good time helping joyce at the kitchen when it's her time to cook, how he learns where everything is around in every cabinet and how he now has a spot at the table that no one else can take.

steve is more the kind of reaching out to show his live in little touches; a hand on jonathan's hair, a pinch to his waist, a peck on his cheek. jonathan is a bit shy in that front, but whenever he gathers the courage to start skinship steve is left a little dizzy with a bunch of butterflies flying around his stomach.

whenever they are together, jonathan makes sure to pay extra attention to steve's scars, running a thumb across them and dropping a quick kiss before he gets too shy to continue being so damn soft for no other than steve harringtom himself.

they talk about everything. steve learns about lonney and how hard it was on jonathan when he left, how he had to take on the role of a parental figure for his little brother and become a stable support for his mom. how guilty he still felt some nights for not being there when will was first taken. how he had to adapt to receive a new member to their family while his mom mourned hopper and they all tried to get used to being away from their home. how jonathan finally got his first friend, a real one he could fit with. how he learned to cope with his trauma, maybe not in the best way.

jonathan learns about steve's parents, how they've never been around, how they thought the most expensive gifts would replace love and care. steve learns that steve is not a stranger to loneliness, and how even though he was the so called king of hawkins school he was so alone and lost thinking popularity would give him what his parents denied him, love and respect. but it was all shallow. he learns about robin and how she became steve's best friend, learns about how much dustin actually means to steve, like a little sibling he would do anything for. and they both understand how similar they actually are.

one night during movie night, it gets too late for steve to drive back to his house and joyce offers him to stay which steve happily does. they throw a sleeping bag next to jonathan's bed that is quickly discarded when jonathan tells steve to just climb up (mind you, this after steve complaining over how he is not used to sleeping in sleeping bags and how he could still feel the floor being so damn hard beneath him. jonathan got tired of hearing him whine about it and told him to join him in bed). ever since, steve learned how much he enjoys sharing a bed with jonathan, who at first looked annoyed at steve for not shutting up and for now taking half of his bed but that later into the night rolled over and hugged steve closer in his sleep.

okay, i have more and more and more but that's it for now! i love all type of stonathan headcanons, but those that explore how they got closer and then started dating are my FAVORITE! hope you enjoy and see my vision!!

Finished The Indigo Disk last night, so time for some more PokéThoughts:

For costing more than half the price of the base game, I feel like the story could have been longer. I'm certainly not done playing the DLC yet (still haven't caught the Loyal Three, for example), but I finished the story in ~2 days. The base game probably took me about a week? To be fair, I did start the DLC with a full team of Lvl 100 Pokémon, so that probably saved me a lot of time.

Similarly, for being called "The Hidden Treasure of Area Zero", you really don't spend that much time in Area Zero. Again, this is likely due to having a late game, high level build. Part of the reason it took longer in the base game is because you don't have Koraidon, so you can't just jump and fly to get where you need. Also, I just immediately used the warp point to get to Research Station 4 instead of walking through all of Area Zero again. I hope I didn't accidentally skip any fun interactions, but with how much Game Freak tries to railroad you into doing the plot how they want you to (see my previous post about the DLC), I feel like if there were any cutscenes there, then you just wouldn't be able to use the warp points for... reasons.

That being said, what time you do spend in Area Zero is just as awesome as the first time you go there in the base game. The new music is great, too.

Speaking of new music: Celestial (Remix by Toby Fox)?! Leave it to Toby to make an Ed Sheeran song actually good, I guess.

Performance wise, it's comparable to the base game, maybe slightly better? Only clipped into a mountain once. Haven't noticed any other glitches so far, but it does occasionally seem to run a bit sluggishly. (And it continues to suffer from a lack of voice acting.)

Koraidon can fly now!!! Wish there was an option to invert the y-axis, but it can fly!!! Also, you can BE your Pokémon now!!!

Spoilers?

I like how they tell you Blueberry Academy is in Unova, but it's not, like, attached to it at all. It's just an island. They could have said any region, and it would have had negligible impact, imo. (But I am saying this as someone who hasn't actually played Gen V, so maybe there were things I missed.)

Well, okay, I think it did have one effect. I haven't played B/W, but I know Unova is supposed to be based on America, so when one of the NPCs mentions "BBQs", I was like, "Oh, that's cool. They have barbecues here instead of picnics." Nope! Stands for Blueberry Quests.

Terapagos being tiny when Kieran first pulls him out was the funniest shit

It broke the fucking Master Ball?! It can do that?!

Still not sure I really understand how the Stellar Tera Type works. I know it's not every type at once. I'm not sure how that would work either. Wouldn't they just cancel each other out?

I don't feel like the game did the best job of communicating how much time had passed. Carmine (and later, Kieran) always being like, "You really kept me waiting". I literally did not??? But also, Kieran saying, "I looked up to [Player] for so long", meanwhile I'm pretty sure that, at most, one in-game week has passed since I first met him. I guess if I had played the first part when it first came out, it would've felt like a longer time. (It was probably supposed to be at least a few months in-game.)

Also makes it a little hard to buy into his motivation being his desire to beat me in battle. Wait, maybe that makes it more believable, actually. "You're still bitter about that?" "Yeah? It was just last week..."

But, again, I would be perfectly happy to let him have Ogerpon. He has a personal connection to it! If I keep it, it's probably just going to stay in one of my boxes. (It is pretty cute, though.)

Despite the lack of hugs, I found the ending acceptable. I do still wish you could have hugged Kieran, though. Or at the very least, when he says, "Can we be friends again?", you should have been able to say something like, "What do you mean 'again'? We're still friends!"

Surprise!

Pairing: none? (But you can take it as a Jongdae x gn reader)

Genre: birthday fic, there is a tiny bit of angst due to the situation that is developing, but there is of course a happy resolution.

Warnings: none, but if you see any, please let me know.

Summary: It’s Jongdae’s birthday and you wanted to throw a surprise party, but vendors have been cancelling and time is running out.

Word count: 1K

A/N: Hi! I didn’t intend to write this first since I am working on the Kyungsoo one-shot, but the idea came to mind and I had to write it down. It’s still the 21st here so Happy Birthday Jongdae!

MASTERLIST | MOODBOARD

“He won’t be upset, right?”

Minseok looked at you, but you couldn’t quite figure out what that look meant. It was getting too late already and no one had said anything to Jongdae or even looked at his texts.

“Yeah, okay, he totally would be upset, I’m not dumb! But once he sees all of that he will at least smile, yeah?”

“The fact that you are constantly trying to verify it speaks volumes. Look, Y/N, your intentions were good, but I’m afraid I would have to say I told you so,” Minseok shook his head.

You definitely hate a disappointed Minseok more than anything, but you know Jongdae will like this surprise. Somewhere deep inside you there’s still hope.

“Y/N! Y/N! Y/N! The neon lights came,” Baekhyun came running so fast that his heavy breathing was almost louder than his voice.

“See! We got some good news,” you exclaimed excitedly, but Minseok still wasn’t that amused.

Minseok couldn’t be mad for too long; he was also excited that at least something could be set for Jongdae’s surprise birthday party, but he did tell you to plan it with enough time. He knows that you’re busy too and that’s understandable, but a little more organization would have worked out this time.

“Y/N, Minseok hyung, are you here?” Junmyeon’s voice came from the other side of the door.

Kyungsoo opened it and you could see Junmyeon with a couple of boxes.

“Are those the lights?” Minseok asked.

Junmyeon shook his head and said, “Kyungsoo made some appetizers and I bought a cake.”

“Kyungsoo, I could kiss you right now,” you said as you looked at all of the food that he managed to make.

“Please don’t,” he said as he side-looked at you incredulously.

“I won’t, I won’t, don’t worry,” you giggled at his reaction.

“I would do so if you don’t mind, these look delicious,” Baekhyun commented once he helped set the food. Kyungsoo looked at him just the same way he had looked at you before.

“I bought the cake,” Junmyeon reiterated.

You looked at him, amused, and gave him a quick hug as a thank you. The five of you continued to help set the food when Sehun came in with the neon lights and a flower projector you hadn’t asked for, but it was Baekhyun who brought it. He had seen it for a music video that was being filmed in the building and stole it once they finished. It gave off the right vibe and surprisingly complemented the neon lights.

Once the lights were set, Chanyeol sent you a text asking if it was time to take Jongdae to the party. He had been asking him and Jongin to go for some drinks for the past twenty minutes, and he was running out of excuses.

You: I think you could, the party decorations are not coming and the catering reservation was denied.

Yeol: Then… should I? 🙊

You: You didn’t let me finish 🤣

Kyungsoo made appetizers and the neon lights did come

Oh and Junie is asking me to tell you that he bought a cake.

Yeol: Awesome! Go Exo! 🌟

We’ll take him for some drinks and I’ll buy some to take to the party

I’ll figure it out 🫡😉

You: Thank you so so so so much Yeol

You da best!🫰🏻

Minseok came close to where you were texting Chanyeol and surprised you, “sorry, Y/N.”

“It’s okay, I’m easily scared.”

“No, not about that. I’ve been pessimistic and haven’t even helped you at all. I’ll go get drinks for the party, and maybe some more food if we need it.”

“Oh, Minseok… you don’t need to apologize, I should have listened to you in the first place. Let’s go together! Chanyeol and Jongin will buy us some time.”

You informed Chanyeol about Minseok and you going to buy drinks and food, so you ended up deciding to split the money and buy all the drinks and extra food between the three of you and Jongin. In about twenty minutes, you had all you needed and went back to the party. Your eyes were watery when you saw how the room turned out with the help of everyone. They even managed to get a karaoke machine, but you decided not to ask how they did it. At least, it was good to know that the leader was there with them and couldn’t have let them steal something else.

Nini: We’re here 😎

What was the room number?

Jongin texted you this time. You sent the number of the room, and all of you waited expectantly for them to arrive.

In about ten minutes, the door opened. It was Chanyeol signing you all to be quiet, so the expectations grew. Next, Jongin came in with Jongdae right behind him. Kyungsoo turned the projector on and Sehun turned the music volume up.

“Surprise!” All of you shouted when Jongdae walked in.

The look on his face calmed every anxious thought you had and you could finally smile easily. Jongdae was jumping up and down looking around at how beautiful the room looked. All of the members ran to hug him and you stayed back, marveling at the love all of them share and the happiness that sparkled in Jongdae’s eyes.

Jongdae thanked all of his members and looked at you as he walked closer. His smile was so wide that it warmed you up just to know he was happily oblivious to all of the hard work that was put into this surprise party. Every little bad thing was forgotten now, the present was all that you expected it to be and more.

“This was your doing, wasn’t it?” Jongdae asked.

“Everyone helped.”

“But you are the mastermind. You even get our leader to follow your orders. Thank you so much, Y/N! What would I do without you? What would any of us do?” He hugged you tight, and it didn’t seem he would let go any time soon.

“Happy birthday, Jongdae!”

[dimplessjoon]

I read your first fic and loved it! Could you write something where Namjoon is sick during a vlive with the maknae line and has to run offscreen to be sick, but army hears and gets worried so he posts on weverse a few hours later to tell everyone he's ok, after the boys take care of him?

Thank you for the request. Hope you like it.

**Emeto Warning**

Namjoon's POV

"Joonie hyung, Joonie hyung do you like my army bomb?" Jimin asked showing me the painting on his army bomb.

Today me, Taehyung, Jimin and Jungkook were doing a vlive together. The staff had arranged for us to make BT21 themed army bombs, and that too at home so we didn't even have to worry about going to the company. So far everything was going great. It was chaotic but when wasn't it chaotic with BTS.

"It looks great Jimin-ah" I replied giving him a soft smile.

"Hyung is just being nice Jimin. We all know mine looks the best Joonie hyung likes mine not yours." Taehyung replied jokingly.

"In your dreams hyung, mine is the most amazing one. After all I made it." Jungkook added in.

I zoned out of the conversation and tried to continue working on my own lightstick, though that was proving to be difficult. I made sure to keep a small smile on my face, using it as a disguise, hoping that the others and army would not be able to find out that something is wrong. Today my morning meeting was canceled so I could finally get some rest and catch up on sleep. So, when I woke up this morning everyone had already left for work, leaving me to figure out what I was going to eat for breakfast. Jin hyung had told me to buy something to eat but I wanted to try to cook myself, so I decided to make breakfast. I know I am bad at cooking but I could at least make breakfast without messing up, after all I am a grown man. That's what I thought. Turns out I am not capable of cooking my own food, because ever since eating breakfast my stomach has been aching. I probably messed something up and gave myself food poisoning. It was bearable for some time but it was getting worse. If my stomach does not calm down, I know I am gonna throw up and that's the last thing I want to do right now. I start paying attention to the conversation again when I hear someone calling my name.

"What?" I asked them.

"Hyung, I was asking you which one of us have the best army bomb. It's mine right? " Kookie asked giving me his big puppy dog eyes to convince me to say his.

"All of your army bombs look amazing, guys." I replied trying not to get sucked into their argument especially when it feels like someone is using my stomach as a punching bag.

They start arguing with themselves and I try and paint, hoping it would distract me from the turmoil my stomach is going through. But, it did not work because in a few minutes I stood up and went away from the camera view, took the trash can and started emptying my stomach. Thankfully, I was able to get out of the room so hopefully army couldn't hear me throwing up. I know the maknaes are professional enough to handle the situation so i am not too worried about it. As I continue to throw up I can barely breathe and my stomach is showing me no mercy. After a while, I feel people touching me and I know the kids must have ended the vlive and come out.

"It's ok hyungie, let it all out, you'll feel better in a bit." Jimin says while rubbing my back.

After a couple of more torturous minutes I am finally done, and slowly I get my breathing back to normal.

"Here" Jungkook says as he helps me drink some water after I have calmed down. The water feels like heaven to my sore throat after that awful time throwing my guts up.

"Thanks" I softly say after I finished.

"Let's get you to bed so you can get some rest." Tae says and the three of them help me up and take me to mine and Tae's bedroom. They help me lay down in bed and bring over the trash can, water and some crackers for me.

"How did you get sick hyung, you were absolutely fine when you went to sleep last night." Jungkook asked

I was embarrassed to tell them what had actually happened but I knew they would not let it go so I sighed and told them.

"I cooked breakfast this morning. I probably messed something up and got myself sick." I reply not meeting their eyes.

The three of them look at each other for a couple of seconds before bursting out in laughter.

"Oh My God Hyung." Jimin says while laughing.

"We should have expected this. God of Destruction strikes again." Taehyung said.

"Haha very funny. Laugh at my pain you three." I say, I know it's funny but they could at least wait till I am not feeling like shit to make fun of me.

"Oh hyung, you are a literal kid. IQ 148 my ass." Jungkook says.

I just glare at them. After they have calmed down a bit they give me some medicine and get into bed to cuddle with me. I sigh, as much as I was not a very touchy person, cuddling with these kids always made me feel better. Then I suddenly remembered about the vlive, and how they had suddenly ended it.

"By the way what did you guys do about the Vlive." I asked curiously. I trust them and I know they probably covered up for me, but I was still worried about the army's reaction. An idol just doesn't run away from his own vlive like that.

"After you went we just joked around and said that you must have needed to go use the bathroom urgently, but then you started throwing up and we could hear you inside so army started to get worried." Tae says

"So, we told them we are sure everything is fine and comforted them and then ended the Vlive." Jungkook adds

"God, I can't believe I messed up. I was hoping you guys couldn't hear me inside." I say. I ruined the Vlive and worried the armies. Not to mention the company would probably have to go through the trouble of handling the whole situation.

"Hyung stop. I can see the gears turning in your head." Kook says.

"You were sick and did your very best. You did absolutely nothing wrong. Okay. Now stop worrying about it. Just post an apology on weverse and explain to the army I am sure they are worried, and everything would be fine." he adds.

I guess he is right. I can't change what already happened so I nod and take my phone out and post on weverse telling army I was feeling a little sick which is why the vlive ended and apologizing to them for worrying them. After that I put my phone down and sigh. Even though I was feeling much better than before my stomach was starting to hurt again so now I just wanted to sleep before I have a round two against my body. The maknaes must have understood that cause they snuggled closer to me as I fell asleep.

One more drabble for today. Enid buys Wednesday a stuffed golden retriever to cuddle when she’s away <3

It took barely a week after their relationship officially began for Wednesday and Enid to push their beds together. They spent nearly every night wrapped up in each other, the world quiet, as they talked inches apart and pushed for as much physical contact as possible. Wednesday was reluctant to let this develop, but once it had she was even more hesitant to let it go.

Enid, as part of one of her many clubs, was going on a camping trip. Wednesday was not invited, nor interested in interacting with anyone other than Enid nearly ever again.

Wednesday absolutely would not admit it aloud, but she was anxious to be away from the blonde. She’d seen her parents inability to be away from each other and though she had been loathe to recognize it, she couldn’t deny the stark similarities between their feelings for each other and her feelings for Enid.

She knew she could distract herself enough during the day, but she expected to miss Enid the most when they were apart for the night.

Enid entered their room the day of her trip overly cheery, in Wednesday’s opinion, holding something behind her back.

“I got you something.”

“Oh?”

With a wide grin Enid pulled the gift from behind her back and presented to Wednesday a golden retriever stuffed animal.

Wednesday quirked a brow.

“You always say I remind you of a golden retriever. And I know you’re going to miss me when I’m on my trip. This is for you to cuddle since I won’t be there.” She pushed it forward more. “I even sprayed some of my perfume on it.”

Wednesday continued to stare at it. Enid scoffed. “Come on, I’m not going to ruin your stuffed animal hating reputation. I keep your other secrets, don’t I?”

Tentatively the shorter girl reached out and took it. “I’m not making any promises that it will actually be cuddled. But I appreciate the sentiment.”

As expected, however, when Enid was away Wednesday couldn’t sleep.

After turning over for the umpteenth time Wednesday sighed. She looked down to see Thing offering her the stuffed animal.

“I’m not touching that.”

He pushed it forward, silently conveying how much he knew she needed it.

It only took a few more moments for her to grumble and grab it from him. She held it to her chest begrudgingly, immediately being overcome by the comfort of it’s softness and especially the scent of Enid that she’d sprayed all over it. She cursed the contented sigh that crossed her lips as she finally relaxed enough to sleep.

Within a few hours Wednesday’s sleep was interrupted, however, by the sound of the door closing softly. She turned her head to see Enid trying to sneak towards her.

“Why are you here?”

“Three people on the bus got food poisoning so they just turned it right around. Trip is cancelled.”

“Oh.”

Enid approached her and smiled wide at seeing the girl clutching the stuffed animal.

“Did it help?”

Wednesday squeezed it protectively. She saw Enid’s face and knew she wouldn’t get away with a lie. “Maybe.”

“Would you like to cuddle with me instead?”

Wednesday nodded, letting the toy roll onto the floor and leave her arms open. Enid climbed into them, pressing a kiss to Wednesday’s forehead before getting comfortable with her back pressed to the other girl’s front.

“Goodnight, Wednesday.”

Wednesday tried to hide the way she was once again overcome by how comforting the scent of Enid was, but she could feel Enid smirk.

“Goodnight.”

ten years later

Enid smiled wide as she quietly closed the front door behind her. In the middle of the living room was her wife, asleep on the couch and gripping the stuffed golden retriever she’d given her years ago. Enid had been away for a few days and was late getting home. Presumably Wednesday had wanted to wait up for her, some true crime show playing quietly on the TV in front of her, but had fallen asleep.

She kneeled down in front of her, laying a hand on her cheek before pressing a kiss to her lips.

Wednesday’s eyes fluttered open and a sleepy grin covered her face at seeing her wife. “Hi.”

Enid giggled. “Hi.”

Wednesday leaned forward for another soft kiss. “Come here,” she requested.

“We don’t both fit on the couch, baby. Do you wanna go to bed?”

Wednesday looked down at herself, suddenly realizing where she was. “Oh. Yeah.”

Enid stood and Wednesday moved to follow, yawning as she sat up first. She noticed the stuffed animals she had been holding had fallen to the floor.

“You didn’t see me with that.”

Enid laughed, leaning in for another kiss as Wednesday stood. “‘Course not.”

(Madam President)

©Scientific Morality.

All my life, I’ve been told that I exaggerate. Little did I know that this gave me the talent to work for the American news media! You should have seen the headlines of my local newspaper, the Los Angeles Herald Examiner. For example, there was “The Biggest Rainfall Coming to L.A.! Many Will Drown!” And (my favorite): “Communists Rob a Grocery Store!” As it turned out, some Russian tourist had taken a red apple without paying for it. At the neighborhood food market, you could buy The National Enquirer. My favorite headline of theirs was, “I Had Gay Sex With John Wayne!” Of course, this was all designed to get you to buy the tabloid.

Well, nothing has changed since then. On cable T.V., they want you to watch their commercials, so they try to captivate you with sensationalism. “Oh! My! Bob!” or “Donald Trump wants to be dictator!” The fat fuck must have somebody tie his shoes for him, for Christ’s sake! Yeah! That’s right! Then there are the mouth pieces of the Right: Nick Fuentes, the Gilbert Gottfried of the gentile race! I am terrified of him. Matt Walsh, the Catholic mental case with a Fidel Castro beard. Dennis Prager, the covert narcissist who thinks God worships him. He would do anything for attention. If he was guaranteed survival after committing suicide, he’d do it. “Look at me everybody! I’m special!” Indeed, you are, Dennis; indeed you are!

Like the Navy versus the Army in football, the two-party system is going to last forever. Both parties are controlled by the 1%--the Conservative elites and the Liberal elites.

With all of these apocalyptic predictions and end-of-the-world scenarios, why even bother to vote? They want you to stay home.

Want to upset a conservative? Tell them that Trump is no different than Biden. Or tell a Liberal Democrat that Biden is like Trump! Watch the steam come out of their ears—like Herman Munster. They are both senile, old farts.

We’ve got the presidential primaries coming up, however, that’s all heading south. The Democratic Party’s Central Committee wants to cancel the primaries. The Democratic Party has already done so in Florida, but three other Democratic candidates are fighting the decision. Good luck on that score!

One candidate who’s caught my eye is Independent, Marianne Williamson. She is from the New Age Left. Though I despised the New Age movement in the 70’s, some new agers I’ve met are very Anti-Authoritarian Left. They and I are from the same generation of late Baby Boomers. We are both the romantic idealists of the counterculture. I can’t vote for Abbie Hoffman, he’s dead! So, I’ll vote for the Hippie candidate.  Williamson’s policies are like those of President Franklin D. Roosevelt. FDR never survived to implement his “Economic Bill of Rights,” so maybe she can continue FDR’s reform of America.

She is not Christian. So, what! I don’t give a poop if she channels Elinore Roosevelt! If she can help put America back in order, my vote is for her.

And now, what’s this shit about Trump wanting to make America fascist? With what army? The orange puke can’t even navigate a ramp! To accomplish it, he’d need the support of the 1%, the U.S. Military, the CIA, FBI, Wall Street, mainstream Protestant denominations, and other establishment entities. Do you really think that Trump has the support of the CIA? Me neither.

With all the hysteria going on, I say, bring it on! Hail, Trump!

Just kidding.

Marianne Williamson for president! I’m not kidding.

Fallen | 4. The Present

Warnings: allusions to depression, mentions of getting drunk

Word Count: 2,805

Previous | Masterlist | Next

When you returned to school after summer, you didn’t expect to be greeted in such way. Hyeseul had arrived the week before, and had all but turned your dorm into a nightclub, minus the people. You had to admit, she did outdo herself, which wasn’t surprising considering all of her artistic talents.

And while you wanted to enjoy the changes, you couldn’t help but continue replaying the previous day’s events over and over again.

It seemed your boyfriend knew you better than you thought, as he immediately caught on to your mood when you reunited the next day.

“I think it’s officially over between Sunghoon and I.”

Jake didn’t say anything, only held you tighter than before. It was warm and comforting, and you were grateful he didn’t say anything.

That was the last time Sunghoon was mentioned in any of your conversations.

  Your first class of the semester was shared with Sunoo, a film study course that was required for your younger friend and an elective you couldn’t find time to take the previous year.

At exactly 9:00am, the lecture began, and you had to work hard to fight off the fatigue that tried to overtake you.

But you would walk into your Statistics lecture an hour later and become thankful that you chose film study as your first class of the morning.

By noon, you were done your classes for the day, having learned in first year to get all of your courses done and out of the way in the morning, and have the afternoon free whether for studying, or meeting up with your friends.

And true to your final words to Sunghoon, you didn’t return home that winter break, or any of the breaks that followed, until your brother’s graduation.

  On Halloween, Hyeseul managed to get herself drunk enough to spill all about her family.

Hyeseul came from a surprisingly rich family, having everything money could buy, except her parents’ time.

Her parents were always busy, her mom an attorney for a mega-corporation, while her dad was a famous doctor, dedicated to honing his skills, but never having time for family in return.

You also learned that she had a fear of meeting new people, something you couldn’t have guessed based on how well the two of you got along immediately after meeting. When she told you the stories of her youth, however, you understood. People wanted to get close to her because of her wealth, or because their parents wanted something from her parents, and naturally, she started to worry that people were pretending to like her to get something in return.

You couldn’t blame her for wanting to keep her background a secret and start new where no one knew her, ensuring that people were wanting to be her friend solely because of who she was, not because of her family.

You became closer with Hyeseul after this, you yourself sharing things about your family, including your mother’s death and everything that happened after, sans stories about Sunghoon. When you shared, you hoped she would forget them since she was that intoxicated, but she remembered everything and you bonded over your childhood stories.

  During the holidays, Sunoo was the only other person staying behind with you, you out of your own choice, and Sunoo, because of the anticipated snowstorm that cancelled all of the buses home.

Jake and Heeseung had left the week before, having initially thought that all three of them would head home the same day, but Sunoo had mistaken his exam date and had to postpone his trip. The other boys had already arranged their trip, that they had to leave Sunoo to catch up.

Hyeseul had gone home for the holidays as well, her Christmas gift from her parents to go on a cruise during the break. She asked you if you wanted to join, but you declined, wanting to see the campus in all its beauty, without anyone else crowding it. It wasn’t if as you could afford it, though Hyeseul had offered to pay for you, but you were glad of the turn of events.

When Jake heard that Sunoo couldn’t make it back home, he was a little relieved that you wouldn’t be alone for the holidays. You had already declined his offer to stay at his apartment while you were on campus, but Jake knew you would agree if Sunoo was there too, knowing that you would worry for your younger friend feeling lonely. And he felt safer knowing you were in his home with a close friend than alone on campus.

(You questioned why Jake felt safer that you were staying with another male).

On your first day with Sunoo, you spent the entire day watching movies. Sunoo had a lengthy list of holiday movies he wanted to watch, ranging from kids’ cartoons to horror movies, so you laid out some blankets in the living room, changed into pyjamas and had a movie marathon.

The last thing you remembered was looking at the clock screen that read 4:30am before you fell asleep.

When you woke up, it was already noon, and Sunoo was still sleeping, facing the couch. When you looked outside, you saw that the roads were all but blocked, the snowstorm having made its presence while you were asleep, and 5 missed calls from your boyfriend.

You walked into the kitchen and called Jake, who sounded worried when he picked up.

“Are you okay?”

You were confused, and realized he might have been worried because you didn’t pick up, “Of course. Sunoo and I were watching a movie all evening, and fell asleep really late. Sorry if I made you worried.”

Jake let out an audible sigh, “And the snow?”

“It’s coming down pretty hard. The roads are blocked, so I think we’re effectively stuck in your house.”

There was a slight pause, and you could hear some rustling before Jake continued, “The apartment is equipped with a backup generator if the power cuts out, but there are extra blankets in the storage room beside the entrance, and hand and foot warmers in the box above the washing machine. There’s a portable propane stove under the sink and there should be a box of bottled water in the pantry. I think there’s enough non-perishables to last you for a few days but-“

You cut off your boyfriend with a giggle, “You’ve prepared everything, haven’t you?”

“I’ve had it all set up since you first said you wouldn’t be coming home with us. I wanted to make sure you’d be safe and comfortable while alone, but I didn’t think you would decline to stay at my place.”

Jake’s words warmed you heart. He respected your decision when you said you didn’t want to go home, and didn’t try to convince you otherwise when you declined his offer to stay at his apartment. You weren’t aware he had prepared this before asking you to stay over while he was away, and you were thankful that he didn’t push you to stay over even after having prepared everything.

“I love you.”

You could picture the smile appearing on Jake’s face on the other line, “I love you too.”

Shortly after your phone call with Jake, Sunoo woke up. You stared out the window at the snowstorm, and guessed that a power outage might really happen in the next few hours. Not wanting anything to spoil from the fridge, you made a quick meal with what there was, making some extra for supper.

You also made a mental note of what you used to restock the fridge before Jake returned, though you also knew Jake wouldn’t mind.

A few hours later, the power really did go out, and the building manager came around to inform everyone that there were some issues with the backup generators but that they were working on getting it running soon.

You didn’t mind the darkness, but you did mind the cold. You grabbed all of the extra blankets from the storage room, and lit the candle that Jake’s next-door-neighbour graciously dropped off after learning of the faulty generators. Both you and Sunoo were wearing several layers, with your warmest jacket on top, and wrapped yourselves in the blankets.

Luckily for everyone, the powers came back sometime during the night, but you were long asleep that you didn’t know until you woke up.

Though you initially wanted to spend the break on your own, taking time for yourself (you planned on walking around campus absent-mindedly with a cup of coffee, or cuddling up in your warmest sweater by the window to look at the winter scenery), you were glad you ended up having Sunoo around, your younger friend telling you stories after stories and ensuring you were always smiling.

As the end of the break drew near, you wanted to get a head start and get your textbooks and other supplies in order before the stores became busy with returning students. You were running out of space in your notebook, and you could use a few new pens, a certain someone (Heeseung) having stolen most of yours during your study breaks.

“This one suits you,” Jake stated, having gotten back two days earlier than expected, and now refusing to leave your side for the remainder of the break.

You looked at the pen he had chosen, a black one with a panda bear at the end. When you glanced at your boyfriend, he had a large grin on his face, and you knew he chose it on purpose. You laughed and elbowed him, telling him, “You’re not helpful.”

You left the store with two large paper bags, Jake insisting to carry them both, even though you knew they were both heavy. You walked to your dorm to drop off your new materials before heading back to Jake’s apartment, where you would stay for two more days until Hyeseul returned from her trip.

  You weren’t sure what you were thinking when you applied for a double major at the end of your second year. With only two years left to go (though, you were still 60% certain that you would need an extra year to graduate), that meant most of your remaining classes would have to be dedicated to meeting your major requirements. But, when you mentioned that you were considering journalism or public relations, your advisor suggested taking some sociology courses to provide you with additional perspectives and theoretical approaches, you acted on a whim and applied for a double major.

You didn’t exactly enjoy sociology as much as you enjoyed political science, but you enjoyed how your sociology courses allowed you to present your research as an Op-Ed, and you did find theories in sociology that helped you to question current policies and government processes.

(And you would be surprised when you received your first A+, ever, in the sociology course you took this term).

  In May, you accompanied your brother to various colleges, despite his protests that he did not need a “babysitter”. After several months apart, it was nice having him nearby, and visiting different colleges certainly took your mind off of the boy who kept trying to plague it.

You weren’t sure if your brother had been told by anyone, but like everyone else, he didn’t dare to mention Sunghoon’s name.

Part of you wished that your father would join as well, but you knew he was busy after receiving a promotion at work, and likely would be on yet another business trip. He did call often, to check that you and your brother arrived at each college safely, and you had to remind him time after time that you had already survived two years away from home and was more than capable of watching your little brother each weekend.

In June, you decided to take on more hours at your job, to save up before studying got the best of you again. You worked at the dental office on campus, and as most of the clients were students, many went home for the summer, leaving you with some peace and quiet. Your most frequented visitors were Heeseung and Sunoo, both of whom were supposed to be studying for Spring finals, but you couldn’t say no when they brought coffee and dessert whenever they came by.

In July, you were surprised when your former step-mother called and asked to visit. You were still working extra hours at the dental office, but as always, she was understanding and worked around your schedule.

Your former step-mother spoiled you during her visit, buying you food and new clothes, and you even introduced her to Jake. After her visit, you felt even more certain that she would always be a part of your family, regardless of how short your time with her was, or how late you first met her.

  Third Year

It was the last day of your fall semester when Jake asked you to move in together. You spent most of your weekends at Jake’s apartment anyways that you immediately agreed to the offer, spending winter break moving all of your stuff. Hyeseul was both happy and annoyed when she found out that you were moving out, happy that you were pursuing your happiness, but annoyed that she was losing her roommate.

When Sunoo and Heeseung learned of the news, all of the boys naturally found out, leading to Jungwon and Jay coming to help with the move as soon as their exams were over.

You were returning from the washroom when you heard Sunghoon’s name being whispered. It was the first time you’d heard his name since you told Jake that you had a fall out, and a part of you was curious to find out what was going on. Quietly, you found a comfortable position as you tried to stay hidden from view while listening in on the boys’ conversations.

“He doesn’t really leave his room outside of class, but at least he’s there. His parents called last week and said they were glad to see even that little bit of life back in him,” Jungwon shared.

Jungwon had been accepted to the same school as Sunghoon last year, on a Taekwondo scholarship. You were surprised to not have known that Sunghoon returned back to school, but it dawned upon you that Jake may have asked his friends to refrain from talking about Sunghoon when you were around.

“He avoids the athletics building like the plague though, even though he could get to his classes quicker if he used the pedways that goes through it.”

The boys didn’t seem to clue in on Jungwon’s words, but it clicked with you. Whatever happened with Sunghoon either happened in that building, or with the people who frequent that building.

But it wasn’t your concern anymore.

  Jake was surprisingly a good cook, and the two of you tried your best to even out the housework. At least once per week, you would do everything together, finding joy in the little things in your now shared life.

You also learned Heeseung should not be trusted in the kitchen, unless to make instant noodles, and ensured the food was always ready, or near ready whenever Heeseung came over.

As you navigated the ups and downs of living together, while juggling school and work, time flew by, and exams were already over, and you were returning home for the first time in two years, although only for one weekend.

All of Jake’s friends gathered as well, for Niki was also graduating. You didn’t see Sunghoon, but Jungwon had mentioned to Sunoo (and you overheard, not so accidentally) that Sunghoon had stayed back to catch up after pausing his studies.

Your brother was accepted into his top-choice university on a STEM scholarship for a Bachelor of Science, though decided to remain undeclared for his first year to explore his options. Niki would head off to complete a combined kinesiology and arts degree in contemporary dance.

With the exception of one person, it felt like your life was falling into its correct place. You couldn’t ask for a better group of friends, Eunyou and Hyeseul bringing a different outlook to life, but both making your days together worthwhile. You were also faring better in your own studies, and felt more than ready to tackle your final year of university. You had the best support by your side in the form of Jake and his friends, and counted on Heeseung to make your study breaks entertaining, while Jake would be your shoulder to lean on during your more difficult days and vice versa.

Everything felt almost too good to be true, but you weren’t going to think too much about it, and enjoy what the present moment currently had to offer.

For Victor: 4th Entry

Happy birthday to our grand miracle in life, Victor Li.

Sweet Serenity

How does one get rest? Most people get it by sleeping… some by doing what they are passionate about… and others by just being in the presence of their beloved.

What about Victor? How does LFG’s successful CEO find time to rest despite being known as probably the most workaholic person in Loveland City?

MC: Knock, knock. How is Mr. Victor doing?

Hearing the girl’s voice, Victor turned off the monitor with interview questions before turning his attention to her.

Victor: A certain dummy seems to be slacking off today. I believe she told me she’d do her best to be more productive as a New Year’s resolution. 

MC: I am being more productive, my dear CEO. I’ve been out and about these past few days and… is it wrong to miss you? 

She was teasing in her tone but Victor didn’t mind indulging her every once in a while.

Victor: Mmm so you do admit that you’ve become a workaholic instead of working at a healthy pace. Who was the one who told me to get some rest more and not work like a horse?

MC: That’s… hmpp maybe this was a bad idea. Goldman told me you didn’t have anything on your schedule this afternoon so I decided to visit but… I’ll probably leave then.

Why does it seem like Goldman is becoming more of her secretary than mine? Victor silently thought before letting out a soft sigh.

Victor: And here I had already planned a bountiful dinner later this evening at Souvenir. Maybe I should just cancel that and have Goldman reschedule my meetings for today then.

He knew everything there is to know about this one girl and there is no question that she will always have a soft spot for food… specifically his cooking. MC stopped in her tracks and gave him a hopeful look.

MC: On second thought, I am an understanding girlfriend aside from being an amazing producer. I don’t mind the least waiting for you no matter how long it takes.

MC: How I missed the great chef of Souvenir’s cooking! And of course, pudding.

Victor: The gluten is full again. I’m glad. 

Rest… Peace… Tranquility… Maybe it was when she eats everything he cooks happily despite claiming she needs to go on a strict diet. 

MC: I am not a gluten. The food is just too delicious. We should never deny blessings as the elder say, right? But Victor… 

There was a long pause before it was continued.

MC: Did you know a friend got in touch with me today? She’s from Loveland Business Magazine. 

Victor quietly listened to MC as she spoke already having an idea where the conversation was headed.

MC: She asked me if you don’t mind answering the question they gave you for an interview? If the question was a bit intrusive, they said you didn’t have to answer it. I wanted to know what the question was but my friend told me it was up to you if you’d share it with me. 

Victor: That friend of yours must be smart to not let you know. A dummy shouldn’t be too nosy. 

She was just too kind and oblivious sometimes. Victor knew people would try whatever they can to get close to him whatever means necessary even if it meant going through the people he loved her. But then, even if he worried, there was no doubt in his mind MC could handle herself. The trust they had for one another was built in this lifetime.

Victor: About the sample question… it has something to do with how one rests. 

MC: That question does suit a workaholic capitalistic tyrant such as yourself, CEO Victor. I’m sure the citizens of Loveland are also indeed curious about how you rest while handling a business empire.

MC can’t help but let out a small giggle. Even though she is coquettish at times, she spreads happiness and light into his days life.

Victor: Not going to ask me what my answer is?

MC: After knowing you for so long, I’m sure you’ll let me know if you want to. It’s fine I suppose. I’ll just have to buy the magazine to know. My friend and their magazine will have a boost in sales thanks to a certain greedy cat.

Victor: A dummy through and through. If there’s anyone who knows the answer to how I rest, that would be you.

Hearing this, the girl’s face reddened before thoughtlessly shifting the conversation to another topic. 

MC: CEO Victor is his own person. What I think may be different from yours. It’s always been that way but of course, not all the time. Anyway, he should really also stop asking me too much. After all, I still have a lot to learn from the most successful person in Loveland.

Victor: I believe I need to learn more from you on the aspect of birthday surprises that are not as subtle as to speak. Indeed there is still a lot of you to learn including the element of keeping surprises a secret. 

Victor was the one who had an upcoming birthday surprise but it seemed as though MC was the one left in shock. There really was nothing that the girl can hide from Victor. 

Gazing tenderly to MC’s flabbergasted form, Victor always knew the response to that question.

Rest could be obtained through various forms. Sleep, relaxation, hobbies, work, passion, travel, love… Every single person has their own kind of rest.

Looking back, there was a time where his rest still involved working himself to the bone. Maybe throwing in some hobbies from cooking, equestrian, and fencing. 

But for Victor now? Rest is a person. 

Rest is her. Her scent, her voice, her feelings, and her love.

The serenity in his life.

[Author’s Note]: It’s been a long while since I’ve written stories for him. Although a day late, I wish my favorite mlqc guy a happy birthday. May our little Vic, MC, as well as all of you guys stay happy today and every day.

Chapter 6.

〔Heeseung POV〕

Dean: "If you wanted to go this school to protect her you didn't have to mind control the staff"

Heeseung: "If I knew you were the Dean I wouldn't have gone through all the trouble"

Dean: "She looks the same as she did 10yrs ago, how?"

Heeseung: "When she was sealed, she reverted to that of a child"

Dean: "Wouldn't They recognize her now that she looks the same as back then?"

Heeseung: "Yes, That's why I'm bringing all of us to this school, If anything were to Happen and the seal needs to broken or if it's broken on its own then not just I but we must all be around her"

Dean: "I have some of my personal here as staff I will inform them as well, if I knew she came to this school I would have had them watching her from the beginning"

Heeseung: "We didn't have to worry as much back then because She had Rose with her, but with Rose not being here it will be safer if we had more eyes on Yeseul"

Dean: "If anything comes up let me know right away"

〔Yeseul POV〕

As you headed down the hallway you were wondering why Heeseung was also here at the school, you had never seen him before but then again it was a really big campus. You continued making your way down and found a door labeled Counselors Office, you knocked on the door to see if anyone was in. You heard a response from the other side of the door and so you went in. You had asked her to see if she had your schedule for this semester, as she handed you the piece of paper you thanked her and headed back out when you noticed Heeseung walking your way.

As you were gonna walk up and say hi you received a Message from chan.

Chan:

Yeseul, Do you have anything planned this afternoon?

Yeseul:

nothing in particular, do you not have a shift at the

club today?

Chan:

Shift was cancelled due to some renovations they

want to do, so i am free for the next two weeks.

Yeseul:

will you be okay, income wise?

Chan: Yeah ill be fine, I actually only work there to have something to do.  But I wanted to ask you if you wanted to join me on  some errands today, get you out of the house for  a bit. I can pick you up from the campus.

Yeseul

Sure! I'll meet you out front of the school.

After putting your phone back into your back pocket you noticed Heeseung was already gone. You turned your head to see if he had walked past you but just like when he helped you home you heard no noise and no steps he was just gone. You headed towards the front of the campus to wait for Chan but as your getting closer someone runs into you sending both of you down.

Yoona: "Oh my god I am so sorry" She says as she stands up and offers you a hand.

Yeseul: "It's okay, Don't worry about it" You grabbed her hand.

Yoona: "My Name is Yoona, Nice to meet you"

Yeseul: "Nice to meet you Yoona, I'm Yeseul"

Yoona: "I do got to go, but I'll See you around, Bye bye"

She was already turning around as she was saying Good-bye, She gave off such a bright and Happy Feeling. You even thought she was really pretty, the way her Brown hair shaped out her face, she had Dark brown eyes, with a slim nose and some pretty plump lips.

You hear your name being called out so you turn around to see Chan waving at you. You wave back and start making your way to him. You both walk to his car and he opens the door for you, you thank him. As he starts driving you ask him what errands he needed to run today, the first stop was going to be at a a warehouse, he said he had a custom made piece for his place from there he wanted to go buy some new clothes and you were probably also gonna get something new after he offered to pay for dinner.

Arriving at the warehouse he had told you to wait in the car as he went in to finish signing off on some paperwork before he headed back out with the workers to place the item in the back. As they got closer one of the workers looked over and wouldn't stop staring until Chan had told him something and he immediately looked away.

Yeseul: "What did you tell him, for him to look away so scared?" you asked as he stepped back into the car.

Chan: "Just that if he didn't stop starring his eyes would see the inside of his stomach" He said sarcastically.

  Yeseul: "Chan, really?" You turned to look at him.

Chan: "He shouldn't had been staring so hard, plus you looked uncomfortable"

Yeseul: "You aren't wrong about that"

You both headed off to the next stop, Shopping. It was at one of the malls in the city, but this one had a lot of luxury brands. Your first stop was a shoe store, you split up from Him wanting to go check out some new shoes for the new semester at school, you found these cute black platform boots with a small silver chain and a heart hanging from each side while Chan got your normal looking running shoes. 

From the shoe store you headed to one of the clothing stores he wanted to stop at, he ended up buying a new pair of work pants with a new red button up shirt, he said it was mainly for work since he hadn't gotten new work clothes in a while. Then you both headed off into one of the stores you had wanted to visit, You had picked out 3 different outfits. The first being a cute 2 piece set the color of wine, the second was some light grey open bottom jeans with hearts on them a cute cropped white top it was simple but cute, and the last was a simple black skirt that hugged your waist line with a red crop top that was off the shoulders.

While trying on the outfits, you weren't sure which one you liked more so you asked Chan for his opinion not knowing that the entire time his ears were the color of tomato's. You ended up going with the second and last outfit, they were your favorite out of the three. After going into a couple more stores you guys had finally decided it was time for dinner so you both headed out.

    You both had decided on Korean BBQ, Chan had asked what you were craving and that was the first thing that had came to mind. As you both walked in you had sat down and looked over the menu, both of you had ordered water to drink and went with an order of the Spicy Pork and smoked pork belly.

Chan: "I never asked, but what are studying into in college?" He asked as we waiting for them to bring the food.

Yeseul: "I am not 100% sure what I want to study into just yet so I am taking a couple different courses, its the reason I am going to this College. It is only my second terms so I have until the end of this one to decided on what I want to do." 

Chan: "There are a lot of different careers out there"

Yeseul: "So, you said bartending was something you do on the side? Do you have another Job?"

Chan: "Not really, There some things i do with my friends that you met last time and we have been for a long time so we all live a pretty leisure life"

By that time the food had arrived and Chan took the liberty to start grilling the meat.

Yeseul: "You know its crazy, living in a world where some of us are mortal while the others are not" you say as you take another piece of meat.

Chan: "I Mean its been like this since the world has begun but only some of the supernatural is always talked about so a lot of other species get buried underground" He sounded slightly annoyed by that statement

Yeseul: "Vampires are always the Hot Topic but a lot of it is just bad news"

Chan: "How do you feel about werewolves?" He stared at you waiting for an answer.

Yeseul: "I haven't really heard much about them honestly, all I know is that some of them work for VTC and its rare to hear of them ever doing anything against the law"

With that comment Chan fell into deep thought, It wasn't Like all Werewolves were good but With how strong headed the VTC was no matter who or what caused any issues it would always be blamed on Vampires.  

After eating you could tell Chan was deep in thought, you wanted to ask if everything was okay but you didn't want to pry.

Yeseul: "Thank you for giving me a ride home and for inviting me out"

Chan: "No worries, I had a lot of fun with you today, If you wouldn't Mind would you like to hangout again?"

Yeseul: " I would be okay with that"

You could see a smile form on his face. As you said your goodbyes you headed towards your apartment. As you reached your door you noticed a letter was stuck in your door, so you grabbed it and took it in with you. As you placed your items down you headed to the living room and sat down. You opened the letter and to your Shock it said:

If you would like Rose to be set Free show up at the abandoned Movie theatre on 2nd and Main street. ALONE

But Rose was supposed to be dead.

I really fucking love it when you bite back

So I was supposed to have a date with Ferret on Friday. He canceled, because he apparently got a call from a friend who really needed him eye roll. This is the second time he's canceled with me, and on a Friday night!! So I hit up Jaguar. We had a date scheduled for Sunday, but I asked if he was free, and he was, so I went to his house. 

While I was making those plans with Jaguar, I was also messaging a few people on dating apps. A new person had sent me a message, and I debated for a really long time on if I was going to match with him or not. Everything on his profile seemed like we would get along, but with one major red flag - he’s 25. I decided to go for it and see what happens. I have been trying really hard to be a little less picky. I just want to meet interesting people, do new things, have some fun. I obviously have to be attracted to them, but beyond that it’s so hard to know if I click with anyone until I meet them. He started by asking how I’m battling social interaction and my injuries - an oddly thoughtful question. I have a blurb on my profile with information about the accident, and it’s proven to be a heck of a conversation starter. Then he gets my super obscure reference to the Daniel Sloss Jigsaw special! He is the second person to ever get that reference. We talk about both being extroverts and overly social. He says I’ve already checked off like 5 boxes for him, so he’ll just need my red flags. I give him this list: “I have a master’s in therapy. I will absolutely know more about you than you want me to. I’m poly, and it’s not a choice - if you can’t handle that then it’s a red flag. I live with my ex, but it’s fine we get along. We broke up 3 years ago and I’m working on buying a house in the next year or so.” Then I ask for his - pointing out that he already has one for being 25. He says his age is definitely the biggest one, his PhD consumes his life so he can be stressed and busy, and that he’s very stubborn so will try to outdo me on who knows who better. We agree that we’re both pretty okay with each other’s red flags. I am so attracted to ambition, so being in a PhD program probably outweighs his age. He studies risk sciences and loves to argue. We banter back and forth for several messages, while I’m getting ready to go to Jaguar’s house. There’s a hint of a challenge and a ton of flirting. My favorite message: “The sexual tension in an argument. Don’t even get me started.” I told him I was getting ready to leave to go out, gave him my phone number, and asked him to text me. He did, immediately, saying I’m going to be impossible to take on a date because I’m so busy. I agree it’s true, and say he’ll just have to fight for my time. We continue flirting while I’m on my way to Jaguar’s (responding at stop lights or using voice to text). This boy has strong "fight me" energy, and I am so, so into it. I’m calling him Scorpion.

I get to Jaguar’s. He's an engineer who can't stay still, so his house is really cool. He showed me all the work he's done on it, his archery / axe throwing set up in his back yard, and all his 3D printers. We had dinner and drinks, and talked for ages. We bonded over both being over-thinkers, and not being able to shut off our minds. He’s been through a lot in the last year. He went through a break up, his ex took his daughter to live near family several hours away, and one of his dogs died. He has only been in the area for around two years, and doesn’t know very many people around here. We were sitting on the couch talking, and he asked if he could kiss me. I said yes. It was a really good kiss, that immediately led to more kissing. We made out for a while, then he asked me if I wanted to go upstairs. I said yes. The sex was also really, really good.

Betrayal of child actors who were thought to have grown up

Actors who used to be child actors who were praised for “growing up well” are noisy due to various controversies.

‘A well-bred child actor’ seems to be a thing of the past now. Numerous child actors have grown wonderfully into their 20s, and have delighted viewers with starring roles in dramas, but some child actors have been embroiled in controversy and raised eyebrows.

First is Kim Sae-ron. On May 18th of last year at 8:00 AM, Sae-ron Kim was driving drunk in Cheongdam-dong, Gangnam-gu, Seoul, and crashed several times into guardrails, roadside trees, and transformers. Sae-ron Kim, who was caught by the police who were dispatched after receiving a report, was pointed out as a fluke to buy time by requesting a blood test instead of a breathalyzer test. As a result of blood sampling, 0.2% came out, far exceeding the level of license cancellation (0.08%).

At that time, the transformer was severely damaged in the accident, and electricity supply was cut off to 57 places including nearby shops, but it was restored in about 3 hours. Kim Sae-ron said, "I should have acted more carefully and responsibly, but I couldn't. He apologized, saying, “I sincerely apologize,” but public opinion was cold.

It is also known that Kim Sae-ron worked part-time at a cafe because life became difficult during self-study. Her sympathy opinion seemed to be formed, but she was captured by Kim Sae-ron, who invited her acquaintances to her birthday party during her self-reflection. Kim Sae-ron wrote on her birthday card that she made herself, “The preparations are the body and alcohol.” The sincerity of Kim Sae-ron, who is self-isolating due to her drinking accident, is once again questioned.

Kim Sae-ron, who became a 'nuisance' from a 'well-bred child actor', failed to renew her contract with her agency, and she was indicted without detention for violating the Road Traffic Act (not taking action after a drunk driving accident). It is a situation where her comeback is uncertain as her self-restraint of her insincere attitude adds to the shame.

Following Sae-ron Kim, Ji-young Kim of “Silkie” rose to the limelight over a debt controversy.

The controversy over her debt to Kim Ji-young was sparked by her Mr. A, who revealed that she was Kim Ji-young's ex-boyfriend and housemate. Mr. A said, “I didn’t want to expose it, but she thinks about it for six months and uploads it. She had lived with Kim Ji-young, and Kim Ji-young ran away from home due to domestic violence, and even though my parents owed hundreds of millions of dollars, they paid another debt and even rented a room for me. Her rent, of course, was paid by my parents,” she insisted.

She continued, “She said Kim Ji-young left her house one day and she went into hiding. She said she was dating someone else and told her not to contact her. She confidently said that she would give it all to herself if it was money related, but she never contacted me.” So is her mother. I don't like seeing people who live thoughtlessly on TV. I will get off as soon as I pay the money back,” he added.

In addition, Mr. A said, “If you add up all the money Kim Ji-young spent, it will be tens of millions of won. Even if she dies, she should receive this money.”

Lee Sang-jae, a former member of Mnet’s ‘Higher Rapper 4’, also lent her money to Ji-young Kim and said that she did not receive it.

Kim Ji-young issued her official apology for the debt-related controversy.

Through SNS, he said, "First of all, I sincerely apologize to everyone who must have felt disappointed and confused by this incident." I'm sorry and I'm sorry again. I'll tell you about other progress later. I'm sorry."

Somi from the movie ‘The Man From Nowhere’, drama ‘Come! Kim Sae-ron and Kim Ji-young, who received a lot of love and anticipation for the silkyi of 'Jangbori'. Until recently, they appeared in variety shows and showed their growth and became a model for 'well-bred child actors', but they were disappointed and even betrayed in the controversy they caused themselves.
