Think, Act: Foolish & Intelligent

I’MBG@iamborngenius “Fools think a lot, while the intelligent act a lot.” _Subhas Yadav Have you ever pondered over the difference between thinking and acting? There’s a famous saying that goes, “Fools think a lot, while the intelligent act a lot.” This adage encapsulates an essential truth about the contrasting behaviors and outcomes of those who dwell in thoughts and those who spring into…

i just have beef with tales of the hidden city cause it's like ... would you rather have Second Hand Embarrassment The Episode, the episode that's about fucking Racial Profiling towards an already heavily adultified black-coded character, nuclear family propaganda that comes down to "well he made us so we should be GRATEFUL to him" (seriously what the hell even was that), or leo vibing for 11 minutes 😭😭😭😭

sometimes trying to write a verse and fit an oc into an established universe is harder than just making a new oc altogether and errrgh maybe it's just not in the cards tonight ;v;

NO BC YOU LITERALLY WOULDNT GET HOW HE’D BE SO QUIET LIKE ???

“papa, i don’t understand what i did wrong,” you’d frown at your man with an annoyed whine. könig, who was a whooping 6’10 would only give you a heavy grunt in response. you’d be on the way back to his car from the mall, dozens of your victoria’s secret and H&M bags held in his visibly large hand. the moment könig reached before you (with help of his tree-like long legs anyway), he opened the door for you, the balaclava on his face making his features ten times harder.

no matter how mad the big bear was at you—or more so, what you happened to get yourself involved in—he’d never disrespect you. anything other than sexually, at least. stepping on the custom made step for your smaller figure, you slide into the huge seat of his completely blacked out bmw suv, allowing him to shut the door behind you. you nearly jump at the visible shake of the car beneath your bottom.

you play with your curls as könig carefully sets your bags on the floor behind your seat. because his was set all the way back to accommodate for his long legs, your seat had the better amount of space for your things. when könig finally got back in the car, he immediately started it, causing the monsterous growl of his deleted muffler to come alive.

and he wouldn’t even break a sweat at you !!! you’re over here going over all your actions for the day, step by step, and all könig could think through his mind was what positions he was gonna force you in when you two got back home.

the sound of könig’s car matched the energy that was coursing through his veins. he know you didn’t do anything wrong; not intentionally at least. but the selfish ass part of him wanted nothing more than for your pretty little ass to sit in the passenger’s seat, overthinking on what the fuck you possibly could have done to rile him up this much.

the ride home is everlastingly silent as the small of your voice breaks the thick tension, “baby,” you don’t know how to further articulate your words. “i know you’re mad at me. i wanna fix it, but i can’t it you won’t talk to me. and you’ve been dead ass silent since we been in the mall.”

könig keeps his cool, though. he knew his silence was practically eating at you alive, shaming you with guilt for something you didn’t even intentionally mean to do. but with the way your pretty body sits in the black skims dress you’re in, accompanied by your black and white dunks—his eyes could practically frame your nipples right through the see through fabric, and he was sure that fucking doorman at victoria’s secret could have as well.

you keep talking. “was it the dude at VS? i swear, i made it very known that you were my man and—“ your words are endless blabber to him as the disgusting and pervasive thoughts cloud könig’s mind.

he looks so sexy in his balaclava, protecting his face from the harsh upcoming winter temperatures. he’s sported in an all black outfit, helplessly matching yours. anyone who saw you two together would automatically know that was your man. i mean duh, he walks around with his hand on your ass protectively 99% of the time.

when you get the sense that the brute isn’t listening to a fucking word you’re saying, you let out a frustrated sigh and turn your body away from him. but the sudden placement of a large hand on your knee takes you by surprise as you eye the man who’s ice blue eyes refuse to falter from the darkening road before you.

the moment könig pulls up in the driveway of your shared home, you can’t help but twiddle with the polish on your acrylics. anxiousness is bouncing off you, and könig could tell. you turn your head and open your mouth to speak, only to be cut off for the first time that night.

“go inside.” könig’s voice is very low, but you don’t miss the command in it. there’s no emotion behind the dark eyes of his balaclava. usually you could decipher exactly what and how he was feeling, but in the moment—

“kö—“ your boyfriend’s snow blue eyes harden at your talk back. with softer features, you whisper, “will you be inside?”

“soon. need to make a call first,” you watch him pull out a fresh cigar pack. “be ready for me when i get in.” you open your mouth to talk back again, but wire it shut when könig lovingly grabs your face. leaning in so the pink of his lips ghost over your full brown ones, he whispers, “now, mama. i won’t ask again. can you listen to that one thing for me?”

with a small gulp, you give him pretty doe eyes, feeling between your legs tingle at his masculinity radiating onto you. in the most confident voice you could muster up, you nod your pretty head at him. “yes daddy.”

könig gives you a nod of approval and runs his hand along the curve of your ass. “good girl. go on, liebling.”

you exit the huge car, already getting idea of what was to come when könig came back inside. with a heavy heart, you head upstairs to your room and slowly begin undressing, hoping that the slower you went, the more your punishment would be delayed.

your hopes were proven to be false the minute you were completely naked and turned around to see könig leaning against the threshold of the door, silently watching you.

you jump in fear at the sudden sight in front of you, but feel your heart beat calm down when könig strolled over to you. naturally, your head tilted backward as a way to get a full view of his face. his balaclava remained on, so you knew he was still upset about the events from earlier.

könig takes his large hand and rests it on your cheek, giving it a comforting rub. “you know i love you and respect you more than anything on this earth, right?” the brown of your skin instantly heat up at his words as you slowly nod your head at his sudden expression, unsure of where he was going with his words. könig’s lips can’t help but lightly turn upward into a small smile. you had no idea what was gonna come.

“good. because for today, libeling, i’m gonna fuck you like you mean absolutely nothing to me.”

They are talking in real life. I should’ve been more specific when I requested it

I’m sorry. I hope you have a good day 🫶🏻🫶🏻

I'D BE YOURS IF YOU'D ASK. (kenan yildiz x reader)

summary : in which y/n ghosts the turkish footballer during their "situationship" whilst talking to another football player

face claim : no-one

notes : thank you for requesting !! lets pretend the copa america isnt going on at the same time as the euros lmao

pairings : kenan yildiz x reader , angsty fluff (?)

Y/n was familiar with the game of footballers. The heartbreak you'd get from talking with football players and then getting ignored out of nowhere, also known as ghosting. After multiple failed "talking stages" and "situationships" with various football players from all around the world, Y/n decided it was her turn to become the so-called ghoster. She enjoyed the sense of control and power it gave her.

As of June 2024, Y/n had been talking with a Turkish footballer named Kenan for about three months. After those three months, there was an undeniable change in the mood. She felt the conversations fade away, the replies becoming drier. After three months, you’d expect their relationship to progress, but instead, it felt like things were regressing.

A week had passed since she ghosted Kenan. She didn't choose the ideal time because the Euros were about to start. She thought maybe her absence would go unnoticed, or that Kenan would be too busy to care. But the truth was, she couldn’t handle the idea of being ghosted again. She took the first step to protect herself.

Kenan realized they hadn't talked in about a week while he was training for the Euros. The days were packed with intense practice sessions, team meetings, and strategy discussions. It wasn't until he had a quiet moment to himself that he noticed the absence of Y/n's messages. He checked his phone, scrolling through their last conversation, dated seven days ago.

He tried to brush off the feeling that she was ignoring him. Maybe she was just busy, maybe he was overthinking it. But as the days passed, he found himself missing her more than he expected. It wasn't just about the attention from her; it was the connection they shared, her way of always bringing his mood up, her way of cheering him up after a loss, the way she made him laugh, and how he could talk to her about anything going on in his life. He realized that he liked her much more than other friends do. He had a crush.

Even while training, Kenan's thoughts kept returning to Y/n. He made an effort to concentrate on the game, but it was difficult. What if she was truly over him? The thought of her abandoning him hit me like a blow to the stomach. Was she talking to another guy? Did she already have a boyfriend? Throughout the training, the worst-case scenarios couldn't stop forcing their way into his mind.

The day of the Georgia vs. Turkey game eventually arrived. Kenan decided to overlook the Y/n incident and concentrate on the match. However, he saw her in one of the VIP boxes as soon as he entered the field, he noticed her talking and giggling with a fellow football player, Kevin Alvarez. A wave of jealousy hit him. Why had she and Kevin come here? Is she trying to make me jealous? Is this some kind of game to her?

Kenan's attention split between the action on the field and Y/n in the crowd during the entire game. Kenan felt that Kevin was taking advantage of her companionship a bit too much. Knowing she was right there, laughing and giggling with someone else, made it difficult to focus.

Despite the distraction, Kenan played well and helped his team to win over Georgia. As the final whistle blew, he couldn't wait any longer. Eager to find out, he ran straight for the VIP box.

Kenan said "Y/n," as he walked up to her. Surprised to see him, she turned round, facing him. "Can we talk?"

Nodding, she followed him out of sight into a more peaceful area. "What's up, Kenan?"

He asked again, his irritation rising to the surface, "What's up? Why aren't you talking with me? And what's going on between Kevin and you?"

Y/n raised an eyebrow. "Kevin? We're just friends. What is your problem?"

"My problem? What is MY problem?! You ghosted me, Y/n. One day we're talking, and the next, nothing. Then I see you here with him, giggling, flirting like everything's fine. Like i"

"Look, every time I get into a so-called 'talking stage,' it always ends with me feeling like I'm bothering the person in question and never in a successful relationship. All I was doing is giving you space."

"Space?" Kenan frowned deeper. "I didn't ask for space. I wanted to talk to you. Instead, you left me hanging, making me think I did something wrong."

Y/n moved reluctantly, her eyes glancing away for a while before returning to his. "I am sorry Kenan. It wasn't my goal to hurt your feelings."

Kenan's jaw tightened, showing his simmering displeasure beneath the surface. "But why didn't you talk it out with me? We could have solved the problem, together."

Kenan shook his head, a mix of exasperation and relief flooding him. "Y/n, I like you. A lot. Seeing you with Kevin… it drove me crazy."

Her gaze eased as she turned to face him. "Kenan, I'd be yours if you'd ask. However, you have to understand that I can't deal with the constant unpredictability of our relationship."

Kenan held her hand in his. "Okay. So, I want to be your official boyfriend. I want to spend time with you, I want to take you out on dates, I want you to wear a jersey with MY name and MY number. I want a real relationship with you—not just a situationship or talking stage, an actual relationship."

As he was about to finish his sentence, Y/n hugged him. "Finally."

The tension slowly began to release as they stood there. They finally understood that they both wanted the same one thing: each other.

im hoping this is what you imagined while requesting, if not just lmk i can change anything <3

pick a pile - your soul reminder.

༘⋆ Before you begin, take a moment to center yourself and reflect on your current journey. Trust that the universe has a plan for you, and the messages you receive today are here to help guide you towards your next steps. Pick an image whose energy you're drawn to the most. ⊹ ࣪ ﹏𓊝﹏𓂁﹏⊹ ࣪ ˖

──── ୨୧ ──────── ୨୧ ──────── ୨୧ ──────

✧ Pile One

🧿 What the Cards Say: The Empress, VII of Wands, Justice, The Moon and VII of Cups.

What a cosmic storm of awakening you’re standing in. The universe isn’t whispering here — it’s singing your name.

You are stepping into your divine Empress era — whether you feel “ready” or not. The Empress doesn’t ask permission to bloom; she just does. But here’s the twist: your blossoming is triggering resistance — both from others and your own inner protector (hello, Seven of Wands). That fire in you is not for burning out — it’s for standing tall when people question your rise. Justice, Moon, and Seven of Cups? That’s truth vs illusion, baby. You’re being asked to discern what’s real — not just what’s shiny. With Justice in play, karmic balance is being restored. Something hidden is coming to light — something that clears the fog and gives you the power to choose wisely, not desperately. The Moon invites you to trust your subconscious instincts. You might feel unsure or like you’re being pulled in multiple directions — but that’s just your higher self testing your clarity before handing over your next big gift. Dreams, signs, déjà vu moments? Pay attention. You're already being guided. With water and fire showing up side by side — this is deep emotion meeting unstoppable action. Passion with purpose. Vulnerability and power.

Your Soul Reminder: You are not here to shrink to make others comfortable. You are here to bloom wildly, truthfully, beautifully. Let the illusions fall. Let the truth rise. And when it does? Walk through that portal with grace — and fire in your eyes. You’ve earned this.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

✧ Pile Two

🧿 What the Cards Say: Queen of Wands, Ace of Swords (R), The World and Two of Pentacles

This one hits like a quiet flame under pressure. Your energy? Fierce. Focused. But there’s a mental fog you're moving through — and it’s not here to break you, it’s here to refine you.

You are the Queen of Wands right now — magnetic, radiant, and turning heads whether you mean to or not. But here’s the catch: with the Ace of Swords reversed, your mind might be spinning. Overthinking, second-guessing, doubting your voice. Maybe you're waiting for clarity or a "perfect" sign before you act, but the truth is — you already know. The World says a chapter has already ended or is about to, and the only thing holding you back is the juggling act (hello, Two of Pentacles). You’re trying to keep everything in balance — responsibilities, decisions, emotions — but deep down, something’s gotta give. You can’t hold on to the old storyline and step into the new one at the same time. This pile is realignment energy. You’re in a powerful transition from scattered thoughts to solid purpose. From managing to mastering. You don’t need all the answers — just the courage to say, “I’m ready to move forward, even if the path isn't crystal clear yet.” Your confidence is your compass. Your intuition is your sword — even if the blade feels dulled right now. Trust: it’s being sharpened.

Your Soul Reminder: Power isn't loud. It’s steady. And your steadiness right now is creating momentum that will carry you farther than you can see.

Leaving your overthinking for the rest of the day has probably been one of the best decisions you've decided to make on this starting trip. You won't let yourself overthink all that stuff, not allowing yourself not to have fun and think through every Jungkook's action. It shouldn't matter if he did it to get Kiko's attention or not. You know her attention is subtly focused on the both of you, no matter how many times she's trying not to stare at you and act nice towards you. Maybe she just feels bad after you stormed at her, and you can't forget the fact that she's hiding something, according to Jungkook's words.

He told you how he wants to enjoy this trip, regardless if Kiko will be here or not. And she is, yet you can see him watching her whenever he thinks nobody sees him.

After all of you had fun at the lake, you let yourselves dry in the burning sun before it got too hot and unbearable, to change into clothes and play some sport games. Namjoon brought a soccer ball, which obviously led to a soccer game. At first, it was a men vs women game, which could never lead to a complete trouble free game. Surprisingly, you weren't bad as a team like you expected you to be. You were doing pretty good actually, to your standards and mutual strength at least. Unfortunately, and quite obviously, men were better and it seemed super easy for them to win.

"That was foul!" Minjae screamed at them, making sure they heard her across the huge soccer field that you made for yourselves.

"No, it wasn't. Seulgi stumbled on her own, Namjoon didn't even touch her." you told her, replaying the memory you just saw a few seconds ago.

"Y/N! You are supposed to be on our team!" Seulgi laughed, shaking her head at Minjae's attempt to save your already bad score.

Shrugging, you just sent them an apology smile. "I'm just honest."

Looking at Jungkook, you saw him sending you a flying kiss with a smirk, his way of thanking you because they just added another goal to their score.

Then you created a new team, a mixed team so all the men could finally play at least some kind of serious game. You, Jungkook, Jimin and Seulgi. The other team was Kiko, Hoseok, Namjoon and Minjae while Taehyung remained as a referee. Your team won, with Jungkook's energy and skills, you barely had to do anything other than to kick him the ball whenever it somehow stumbled in front of your feet. Regardless of that, you were still proud of yourself for winning, even though it was mostly Jungkook and Jimin's merit.

The rest of the day went like this and before you realized it, it was time for dinner while the sky was getting darker with each passing minute.

Now, the sky's completely painted dark with beautiful stars sparkling in the distance with sounds of crickets echoing through the space. Even the sound of fire sizzling and the warmth that spreads on your face because of it, is oddly calming. You take that moment to cuddle up to Jungkook, who's sitting next to you, with his arm over your frame pulling you closer. Stomach full, all you can muster to do is listen to everyone's chattering and laughter that slowly fades in the distance as you let yourself think. Your eyes automatically drift to Kiko, who's sitting obliquely from you, head resting on Hoseok's shoulder as he keeps laughing and nodding along to Namjoon's funny story of how he broke his sister's bathroom door.

"Hey, are you sleepy?" Jungkook asks softly, shoulder slowly nudging the side of your face as you frown.

"Kinda," you sigh, "But not really. I think the fire's making me sleepy." you admit, appreciating the warmth of it warming your face.

Even though it's July, it gets even colder at night than back in Seoul. It makes sense, considering you're surrounded by hills and more located to the South.

"You wanna take a walk?" he asks, your head lifting in interest as you look around.

"But it's dark." you point out, not seeing any lamps, well instead of the flashlights and disposable torches the boys had brought, that surrounds the space around you where you're camping.

"Oh, are you scared?" Jungkook nudges you with his shoulder again, shaking your whole body with the single movement as you roll your eyes. "Don't worry, I'll protect you." he promises, a cocky grin earning its place on his lips.

"I'm not scared, you moron." you tell him, faking annoyance and it still makes him chuckle at your attempt.

"Sure, whatever you say." he muses, teasing you but all you give him in response is another roll of your eyes and grin that can't be hidden anymore.

"Okay, let's go. But if we see or hear anything suspicious, we're coming back." you tell him, pursing your lips while you stare at him sternly, daring him to say something different.

His nose scrunches and he starts to laugh at you, but nods to your words nevertheless. "We'll take our phones with us and light up our flashlights on, you big baby." he says, jumping to his feet as he shakes his head to ruffle through his hair.

Big—big baby? The audacity! 

Standing up, you dust your sweatpants and take Jungkook's hand that he holds up for you to take. 

"We'll be right back. We're gonna just take a walk." Jungkook informs the group, making them nod in response before they barely pay attention to the two of you leaving.

They are too busy chattering while drinking beer and soju. Or at least it seemed like it because as soon as you're in the safe distance of not hearing them, Taehyung turns around and watches you walk further and further away.

"Do you think they're gonna fuck?" he asks, cheeks red from the fire but also from the amount of soju he's already drank.

Jimin cackles, telling him to stop drinking that much although, his own eyes drift to your disappearing bodies. What they don't see is the look on Kiko's face that makes her straighten and take a deep breath. It doesn't go unnoticed by Hoseok and he wraps his arm around her petite frame, pulling her closer as he presses his nose into her hair.

"You okay?" he asks her silently, making sure nobody else listens to him.

She looks at him for a brief second before her eyes focus on the flame of the fireplace Jungkook and you made. It's almost as if it's mocking her straight in the face. "Yeah, I'm sure." she assures her best friend, giving him a weak smile but he's not buying it.

"Kik," he sighs, but she just shakes her head in response.

"I'm fine, Hobi." she tells him and ends the conversation there, but still cuddles to him even more.

When he squeezes her, she feels at least some kind of comfort and is incredibly thankful for her friend. Hoseok knows, yet doesn't pressure her into anything and even if she's acting like nothing's wrong, he begs to differ but doesn't say anything. He shows his support with the stronghold he has on her body, silently telling her that he's there for her.

"What? I'm just wondering!" Taehyung exclaims, shrugging his shoulders innocently and the simple act makes Jimin snort.

"Stop wondering about your friends' sex life." Jimin reasons, hearing a loud snicker coming from Namjoon's mouth this time while Seulgi and Minjae busy themselves with stuffing their mouth and act like they're not listening to the conversation.

"Don't tell me you don't think they're shagging—"

Hoseok cuts him off by throwing an empty cup at him, perfectly aimed at Taehyung's forehead. "Shut up, Tae." he scolds him, but grins nevertheless to ease the tension that his reaction might have caused.

Taehyung frowns, rubbing his forehead as if the empty cup could've really hurt him but he listens. He closes his mouth and starts to bicker with Jimin, when he gives him another lecture about alcohol and his low tolerance.

"This is healing," you fill the silence with your soft voice, eyes focused on the moon lightening above your heads.

Jungkook follows your vision, humming in response before he looks at the lake that sparkle with the same reflection of the moon. "It really is," he agrees, "It's cold though." he chuckles, hearing you doing the same.

"Yeah, I thought it'd be slightly warmer. I hope we won't be cold while sleeping in tents." you voice out your worries.

"We'll just have to wear a lot of clothes. But if you're gonna be too cold, just tell me. We can sleep in the car." he says, making you smile at his thoughtfulness.

"How are we gonna fit there?" you chuckle, not being able to imagine the two of you trying to fit in the back of his car, even though his current car is bigger than the one he used to have. Or you could just sleep in front, but you surely won't get any quality sleep there.

"Then I'll sleep in the tent and you can sleep in the car." he shrugs, your mouth pouting automatically at his words.

You'd feel awful and guilty for sure if that happened. Sure, Jungkook is a big boy and probably doesn't get cold that easily, compared to you, but still.

"Jungkook, no." you shake your head.

"Or, we could just cuddle and keep ourselves warm." he pokes you in the ribs, causing you to giggle as you slap his shoulder.

Or, that's an option too.

"How are you feeling?" you ask, nibbling on your bottom lip when you're met with silence and Jungkook's steps halting until he stops.

"What do you mean?" he asks, brows furrowed in confusion.

Stopping too, you walk closer to him and lean against one of the trees that are near the edge of the lake. "Kiko's here." you point out, causing him to chuckle while he hides his hands into the pockets of his cargo pants.

"I'm aware," he laughs lightly, and you do the same because it's nice to see him not depressing over her. "I really wanna enjoy this trip, but I can't help but notice how close she seems to be with Hoseok."

And then you see it. Frown settles on his lips at the mention of Hoseok. Of course, he noticed how close they were and probably still are at the fireplace.

"They're best friends, Kook. You don't think they're dating, do you?" you cock your head to the side, a breeze slightly ruffling your hair.

"No," he shakes his head, frowning once again. "I don't know, something feels shady. They're definitely hiding something, I just have no fucking idea what it is."

The memory of Jungkook telling you about the possible secret that Kiko's hiding crosses your mind, but you're just as clueless as Jungkook is right now. You don't know them that much, but Jungkook does.

"What could she possibly be hiding from you?" you think out loud, thinking about all the possible scenarios that could've happened.

"Whenever I see her looking at me, or even when we were talking at Jin's wedding... I could see how guilty she looked," he says, deeply in thought. "I know her so well, I just know there's something more to this and Hoseok basically confirming that at Jin's wedding just proves my suspicion."

"Well, either way, she's not gonna tell you and neither will Hoseok. How are you planning to find out?" you ask, growing confused.

There's nothing he can do. The only thing is to get your little plan to keep going and finish it before some damage will be done. Surprisingly, playing Jungkook's girlfriend isn't hard so far. The two of you have always been more touchy and comfortable around each other, so none of this feels uncomfortable or foreign to you or Jungkook. Obviously, it all faded away and even stopped when he started to date Kiko which you understand. It was out of respect to her, even though she probably never voiced jealousy. That's what kind of gentleman Jungkook is.

"The only thing I can think about, considering her weird and suspicious behavior, and the fact she seems so fucking guilty about something... what if she cheated on me?" he says quickly, his brain processing his own words while he seems to be stunned he finally voiced out his suspicion. It makes it more real and now that he said it out loud, it makes much more sense.

But even to you, it doesn't make much sense. "You think she'd cheat on you?" you ask confusingly, knowing how Jungkook swore that she's the least selfish person he ever met.

"Argh! I don't know!" he exclaims, covering his face into his huge hands as he groans into them.

Sadness overcomes your features and your body moves on its own, hugging Jungkook's muscular body while you cuddle your face into his chest. His hoodie smells just like him, his favorite fabric softener and that sweet, yet muscular scent he always holds. Sighing, he hugs you closer to him.

"I don't think she'd, but what am I supposed to think?" he asks, voice muffled by your hair as he kisses the top of your head.

"She loves you, Kook. I don't think she cheated on you." you tell him, but he just shakes his head.

"We don't know that." he disagrees, causing you to chuckle as you slightly pull away and look up at him.

Your noses are almost touching from the proximity between you two.

"We don't, but I can see the way she's looking at you. She's trying to be so nice to me," you let out a dry chuckle, causing Jungkook to do the same thing, however his one isn't dry but almost loving at the mention of his ex.

"That's her." he adds, and you fight the urge to roll your eyes.

"But I just see the sadness in her eyes. I might not know her that well, but even I can tell. She doesn't seem jealous..." you trail off, looking back into his dark orbs that shine underneath the moonlight.

"You'll tell me when this gets too much for you, right?" he asks, your brows furrowing in confusion as you stare at him.

"Of course, that's what we agreed on." you remind him, surprised he brought up that topic.

He nods, bringing his back to your face as he gently grabs it and starts caressing the apples of your cheeks. Your eyes flicker shut, enjoying how soft his hands feel against your skin and you happily hum, making him chuckle but not stopping him. Nudging your nose with his own, you whine at his hot breath fanning your face.

"Kiss me, Kook." you whisper, having this sudden need to feel those plushy lips again.

You haven't kissed since you came here, which is quite surprising because you thought you'd, at least as soon as you saw that Kiko's here too. But for some reason Jungkook never insinuated a kiss.

But he listens to you now, kissing you by quickly connecting your lips as he holds your face even tighter. It feels needy and it strokes your ego that he kisses you almost as if he missed your lips. Well, you certainly missed his ones. 

The moan slips out of your mouth as soon as the kiss gets rougher and he slowly backs you, until your back meets the tree again. His hands are everywhere, from gripping your hips to pulling up your leg and hooking it up over his hip to properly feel your thigh, all while he's still kissing you. Your own hands are occupied by nails digging into his hoodie before they trail down to his ass, giving him a squeeze. He smiles into the kiss, but still doesn't pull away. You're gasping for air, causing him to detach your lips but his own starts to work on your neck where he ducks your skin. You're moaning, head leaned against the tree while the wood is too harsh and uncomfortable, but you don't dare to move. Excitement overtakes you're whole body and with your leg that he's still gripping tightly, hooked over Jungkook's hip, you grind onto him. He groans, grinding back where you can feel his bulge. Through the countless amount of layers, you can't feel him the way your body craves to, but it's still enough to make you clench around nothing as you feel yourself getting aroused.

You grind against each other, desperately trying to get ahold of that pleasure and lust that clouds your minds and bodies, but the clothing you're both wearing and position makes it hard. It's not enough, unless the two of you would undress which isn't such a smart idea considering the weather. As if Jungkook thinks the same thing, he stops grinding against you and rests his head on your shoulder while his chest heaves with quick breaths. You're no different, long and loud breaths leave your mouth as you wrap your arms around his frame. Slowly, he lets go of your leg and steadies himself more before he fully straightens himself and grins at you.

"That's not what I was expecting when I asked you for a walk," he jokes, a loud snort coming out of your mouth as you shake your head at him.

It's always like that. You never planned for this to happen, it always just does. Naturally, and you like that because it doesn't feel forced.

"I wasn't expecting it too, but I'm not complaining." you grin, hands brushing through his fringe that got too long and keeps falling into his eyes.

"Trust me," he says, grin disappearing as a darkened look overtakes his already doe and dark eyes. He hovers over you, teeth nibbling on your ear before his mouth brushes your earlobe. "I'd fuck you here, if it weren't this cold."

Your breath hitches in your throat and you restrain yourself from reacting audibly, knowing he'll love that and tease the shit out of you later. You can't believe he just said that. Would he really do that?

"I wouldn't let you," you mutter, mustering a serious and tough expression where you raise your brow and purse your lips to prove your point. "Someone might've seen us." you reason, but the only thing he gives you in return is a loud laugh that makes you shush him straight away, a huge grin spreading on your lips.

"Who? There's nobody here." he says, outstretching his arms like he's the one who's proving his point.

"You don't know that, it's too dark to tell." you shrug, giving his chest a good slap when he smirks at you.

"Exactly, it wouldn't be too hard to tell if we're fucking or not."

"Oh my god!" you exclaim, hearing him cackling. "Just shut up, Jeon." you shake your head at him, hiding that huge grin again from him by walking past him and getting some safe distance from his dangerous and irresistible self.

"Oh, am I Jeon now? Thought I was Kook."

You hear him teasing you, before he jogs over to you and places his arm over your shoulders as he pushes you closer to his chest. You don't protest, not when he's incredibly warm and comfortable at the same time.

"Thank God, you're not my real boyfriend. I couldn't stand you." you grumble, teasing him as you poke his hip before you wrap your arm around his frame, holding him.

"Ah, you wish. I'd be the best boyfriend." he shoots back, making the two of you burst in laughter as you keep bickering and teasing each other for the rest of the walk back.

It just reminds you that nothing has changed. Well, apart from you get to kiss him— amongst the other stuff — now.

When you get back, you give Jungkook a last nudge to his shoulder before you detach yourself from his hip, looking at your friends. Taehyung wiggles his brows, cheeks flushed even in the darkness and you don't have to guess what caused it, considering the stupid amused grin he always has whenever he drinks too much alcohol. You're not the only one who notices it, Jimin tells him something but his best friend just shushes him and waves a hand in front of his face, telling him to shut up.

"You guys done?" he asks, wiggling his brows while staring at you before his eyes averts to Jungkook.

"What's that supposed to mean?" Jungkook asks, confused, reaching for some dried seaweed as he munches on it.

"Ignore him, he's had enough." Jimin speaks up before Taehyung can open his mouth, frowning at his best friend's interruption.

"Where's everyone?" you ask, changing the topic since you've got an idea what Taehyung was aiming at. Whatever it could be, it's not something that should be said in front of Kiko, or anyone at this point.

The seats where Hoseok, Seulgi, Minjae and Namjoon were sitting are empty, and now that you pointed out their absence, Jungkook seems to notice their missing too as he starts looking around.

"They went to sleep," Kiko answers, cuddling herself to some fluffy blanket as she glances at you before she focuses on the flames instead. "I think I'm going too. Tomorrow is gonna be a long day." she says, letting out a chuckle but it seems forced and tired.

She stands up, still wrapped in the purple blanket as she bids everyone a goodnight before she goes into her tent, joining Seulgi and Minjae.

"Is she okay?" Jungkook whispers, glancing at Jimin who gives him a saddened gaze before he shrugs.

"She seems a little bit off, but I think it's just awkward for her to be here with you guys." Jimin explains, his voice silenced so everyone sleeping in the tents nearby can't hear you. He gives you an apologetic look which you just shrug off, knowing he's only telling the truth.

"She knew we were coming here, I suppose." you mutter, ignoring Jungkook's side glance before he sighs and grabs you by your shoulders.

"Well, we're going to sleep too. You guys, don't set anything on fire." he tells them, Taehyung already spacing out but still protests whenever Jimin tells him to go sleep.

It's clear Jimin doesn't want to leave him alone, something that wouldn't be a good idea in Taehyung's state. It's funny and cute how they remind you of your friendship with Jungkook. They have each other's back all the time.

"We'll try to," Jimin chuckles, patting Taehyung's head as he cuddles to Jimin's side. "Goodnight."

Approximately twenty minutes later, when you bid goodbye to Jimin and Taehyung, you and Jungkook are happily nestled in your sleeping bags. With a few layers of blankets that Jungkook brought underneath your bodies, it's softer than you expected it to be and you find it comfortable. The only thing that bothers you is the chilly air that makes you toss around as you're trying to keep yourself warm.

"Come here." Jungkook sighs, his own sleeping bag rustling as he pulls out his arms to pull you closer.

"What are you doing?" you mutter, silently humming as soon as you feel his warm chest pressed against your back. You're definitely warmer now.

"Cuddling you, obviously." he snorts, nuzzling his nose into your neck causing you to let out a silenced giggle.

With his large hoodie already on, the very one he brought you from his car as soon as you started to complain about the weather and being cold, you allow yourself to relax. However, Jungkook doesn't stop there and he starts kissing your neck, leaving soft and innocent pecks that make you bite your lip. You don't move, allowing him to kiss you some more while he rubs your body which is difficult to feel, since you're wrapped in your sleeping bag. Unzipping your sleeping bag, you ignore your body protesting by shivering from the temperature in your tent.

"You're gonna be cold." Jungkook murmurs against your neck, his silenced and raspy voice causing you to shiver again. Not from the cold this time.

"You'll warm me up." you tease, turning to your side so you can be closer to him.

He welcomes your hands on his chest as they get underneath his hoodie, feeling his hot and naked skin there. How can he be so warm when you're close to freezing? His toned abs are hard to miss and you wish you could just take his hoodie off, and see the piece of art. You've never been totally mesmerized by abs and muscular bodies, although it's a nice thing to look at. But everything changes when it comes to Jungkook. He's perfect, an amazing piece of man that makes every woman's heart flutter.

"You bet." he teases back, causing you to giggle as he pulls you closer, kissing you this time.

Your lips mold together, the feeling already familiar but never boring. It's something you could never get enough of, especially when he's so good at it. Two minutes of constant kissing and innocent touches, his own hands disappear underneath all the layers of your clothing when he finally finds your skin. Even the littlest touch of his fingertips make your body heat up, and you completely forget about the cold. He spends a few minutes just rubbing your stomach, his touch leaving soft and tingling sensation all over your body, before he hooks them under the hem of your sweatpants. Detaching your lips, you breathe out a shaky breath as you glance at Jungkook.

He's staring at you, dark eyes boring into yours while his hands disappear into your panties.

"Kook," you breathe out, "Guys are here."

And Seulgi, Minjae and Kiko too.

"They're all sleeping," he says, finger circling your clit as you bite into your lower lip to prevent yourself from moaning. "I checked when I went to take a piss."

Snorting, you let out a chuckle of disbelief. "Wow, that's so hot. Thank you." you tell him sarcastically, your words dying down when he starts to part your folds and slips one finger in.

"I'm honest," he tells you lightly, shrugging as if he's not fingering you right now. He pumps his finger, nuzzling his face to your neck as he starts sucking your skin there. "You love when I'm honest."

"Mhm," you moan, back slightly arching when his finger rubs against your sensitive spot.

"You love when I do this," he purrs against your skin, adding another finger as he curls them inside your tight hole that makes you whimper.

Goosebumps appear all over your body, your hips slowly grinding against his palm as he keeps pumping his fingers in and out. The sound of your wetness is muffled by your clothes, but it's still clear to your ears. It should be embarrassing how wet and hot you became just for him. Yes, the little make out that happened on your walk helped, but you both know it doesn't take a long for him to make you crave for his touch, pleading him for more.

"I do," you let out a choked moan, eyes rolling back when he adds another finger, penetrating your heat even more.

Your walls are wrapped around his fingers, swallowing them in with so much eagerness that makes Jungkook proud.

"You're so needy," he growls, grazing his teeth against your jaw before he kisses it. Your hands clutch onto your sleeping bag desperately, all while he lets out a dark chuckle. "So needy for my touch, for me."

You should be embarrassed because he's right. You tend to act tough, not necessarily in these kinds of scenarios, but still. Even Jungkook knows that and whenever he can stomp on the confidence and tease you, he takes the chance and does it. However, you don't feel an ounce of embarrassment. Agreeing with him, you nod and purr at the same time, body desperately meeting his hands as he picks up the pace.

"I am," you agree, voice strained as you try to control yourself. It feels good, so fucking good, but you don't want to cum just yet. You want to enjoy this for as long as it's possible.

"Oh, baby. You know all you gotta do is tell me and I'll give you everything you want," Jungkook feigns sorrow, knowing those words drive you crazy. He feels you clenching around him, your moans silenced by you biting a lower lip, and that's all he needs to be smirking. "I'd have fuck you against that tree, if you weren't scared someone might see." he whispers darkly into your ear, biting onto your earlobe.

It all happens quick, too quick for you to control it or cherish the way pleasure shoots through your whole body, while you're cumming. Your moans in the form of Jungkook's name are silenced by his mouth enveloping yours. As much as he wants to hear you, his name leaving your mouth repeatedly, he can't let anyone else hear you.

He fucks you through your orgasm, stopping when he hears you whimper from overstimulation. Pulling out his fingers, he puts them into his mouth and makes sure you're watching him when he does that. Your heat throbs, both at the sight and the euphoric feeling of your orgasm, yet you don't have enough. Especially not when you see him licking his fingers clean before he kisses you, letting you taste yourself on his tongue and lips. He growls, hovering over you while his tongue attacks the inside of your mouth. Your tongues dance together, moving swiftly like it's the easiest thing to do. Hands disappearing under his hoodie, you let yourself feel his naked back moving forward to his abs.

He can't help it, you're too irresistible even if it's in a freaking tent and in the middle of mountains with his friends sleeping nearby. Maybe even that small fact makes him go feral, grinding his crotch against you. Getting out of your sleeping bag has never been easier, your hands busy trying to take off Jungkook's sweatpants while he takes off his hoodie, along with his shirt.

"Fuck, I need you." he says, before he kisses you again and helps you to take off your shirt. He's met with your exposed breasts, licking his bottom lip at your puckered nipples which he wraps his mouth around.

The sensation is amazing, his warm mouth warming your whole body all over again and just like that, you feel that same need to fill your pleasure needs. Jungkook's movements are eager, so eager that he tosses his sweatpants rather carelessly causing the piece of clothing to bump into the tent's walls. The tent shakes, causing you to giggle as he shushes you by his lips, chuckling into the kiss. He helps you to undress, making sure he heats up your body with his feverish kisses and constant rubbing of your exposed skin.

"Fuck me, Kook." you plead, nails grazing his exposed and muscular back he's flexing while he's hovering over you.

"Oh, I will," he promises, leaning down to kiss your collarbones as he makes up your neck and jaw. "But you need to be quiet, yeah?"

His voice is low, sending another set of shivers down your spine as you gulp, pressing your thighs together.

"I thought everyone's sleeping." you mutter, teasing him with eyes but you don't show it on your face, too focused on him to even lift the corner of your mouth in a smirk.

"They are," he nods, hands disappearing between your bodies as he spreads your legs and cups your heat which is still wet with your cum and another arousal. You're soaking wet, you can feel it slowly trailing down your ass and staining the unzipped sleeping bag underneath you. "But we don't wanna wake them up." he smirks, his eyes dancing in amusement almost as he's teasing you for being loud.

Oh, he certainly is. As soon as realization hits your face, he smirks even more while pulling away. Your eyes drop to his covered crotch, noticing an evident bulge that's growing with each passing minute. Unfortunately, your sight is dismissed when Jungkook starts to rummage through his bag that he put in the corner of your tent. He pulls out his wallet before he successfully gets the condom. When he turns around and meets your gaze, he sees your raised brow.

"You brought condoms?" you question, wondering if he planned on having sex here.

You sure didn't, not that you're complaining. But you're curious and you love to tease him whenever you get the chance. His doe eyes that were darkened just a few moments ago are completely switched to a wide eyed Jungkook, making look so innocent and young that it makes your heart jump.

"Well, not purposely. I always have them in my wallet." he explains, voice sounding soft all of a sudden.

His lips are set into a slight pout as he stares at you, looking wary for some reason. Little do you know it's because of the exact thing you're teasing him about. He worries that he just planned on having sex, even though there wouldn't be anything wrong with that. You both agreed on this, you two fucking. But still, it doesn't sit well with him knowing you might think he planned this. You're a beautiful woman, it doesn't take long for him to resist you. But you're his best friend before you're someone who he has sex with. He really wanted this trip to be about adventure and great memories, and he kind of let it go naturally. Whatever feels comfortable for you and everyone else. He definitely didn't expect Kiko to show up here, even though this exact topic occurred his night thoughts that made him wide awake for the most of the night.

"It's okay, Kook," you giggle, sitting up as you reach for him. "I'm just teasing you." you assure him, seeing his tensed muscles relax before he scoffs.

"Screw you." he murmurs, grinning as he opens the wrapper by opening it with his teeth while his other hand is too busy pulling his length out.

Taking off his boxers, your mouth salivate wishing you could see him instead of being met with his outline. Judging by the way his hands move and body rustles against the blankets, you know he's giving himself a few pumps before he puts the condom on.

"You're about to." you fill the silence, smirk audible in your voice as he chuckles and gets closer to you.

Adjusting your positions, so he's nestled between your legs, he gives you a kiss and lets his mouth stay on yours while he slowly fills you up. You know it's his way of shushing you, knowing you'd most likely whimper at the sudden stretch of his hardened length. The both of you are trying not to get caught after all. When he's all in, he detaches your lips as he leans his forehead against yours waiting for your signal. As soon as he registers the small nod and little 'go on', he pulls out slowly before he smashes in his way back. With each thrust he makes, the harder it gets to control your moans and even though you've never been that awfully loud, no matter how many times Jungkook teases you about it.

Your legs starts to hurt from the missionary position and with a quick squeeze of his bicep, Jungkook slows down and questionably tilts his head. Without saying a word, your palms sprawl against his chest as you push him while sitting up. He gets the message, laying down immediately while he slips out of you in the process. Hovering over him, you let your legs to rest against his side while you grab his length. Pumping him, you wish you could see that lustful glint in his eyes and the vulnerability that he doesn't show that often:

"Baby," he moans, hands gripping your hips.

Chuckling, you position him against your entrance before you sink down onto him, your eyes rolling back at the pleasure and stretch.

"Fuck, so tight." he groans, nails digging into your skin the entire time he fills you up. He doesn't stop even when you start to ride him, setting up a slower pace that makes less sounds. Nevertheless, the sound of your thighs meeting Jungkook's can't be manageable and it's clear to your ears.

With Jungkook's help, he starts to roll his hips into yours as he meets your thrusts, sending another wave of pleasure through your body with different intensity. It feels amazing, his length so deep inside of you, all while he keeps hitting your g-spot. Slowing down, you circle your hips as you kiss him. You really want to savor every minute and feeling he makes you feel, you don't want to cum just yet. Jungkook is in no rush, kissing you back slowly as he lets you take control. He lays there, enjoying the way you move your hips. After kissing for a few minutes, you start to pick up your pace which becomes tougher, considering how long you've been in this position. Your thighs already ache from the stretch, but thanks to Jungkook who notices your struggle, he starts to meet your thrusts like he's done before.

Everything is slow, yet sensual and intense. It makes your head spin and your heart swell with foreign and wonderful feeling. You can't go all wild, knowing there's everyone just a few meters away from you while you're surrounded in complete silence. But even without this little fact, it still feels right. Maybe it's because you're both lazy and sleepy, just wanting to enjoy the pleasure and something different. If you knew better, you'd say this is how making love feels like.

You almost slap yourself at that, knowing you're nowhere emotionally near that. But it feels nice to have him this close, it's different from the sex you had before.

Considering you've had an orgasm and your walls are still sensitive, you feel yourself tightening as your arms fail you and you fall onto Jungkook's chest. He takes over, still laying underneath you as he grabs your hips and starts to pick up the pace. Even from his submissive position, you may say, he's able to take control and hit all the right spots within your walls. Hands gripping your ass, he spreads your ass cheeks while his nails dig into your skin again. It's the first time tonight when it feels, what can be considered, as a rough move.

"Kook," you whimper, mouth pressed against his shoulder with eyes screwed shut, as you feel another orgasm approaching you.

"Shhh," he reminds you, letting out a grunt when he sets an almost animalistic pace. His balls smack against your ass, the sound already too loud to be heard outside, but you don't stop.

Pleasure washes you all over again, your mouth ready to leave the loudest moan as your whole body shakes. What you do comes naturally, in the desperation to silence your moans, and you gently bite onto Jungkook's shoulder while he keeps fucking you.

He grunts, your teeth digging into his skin although, it's nothing unbearable or too painful, but it shocks him. Few more pumps and he's coming into the condom with a silenced growl. His thrusts get sloppier with each second, before he completely stops and his length starts to twitch. You wish you could feel him cumming inside of you, despite the littlest feeling of him filling the condom, it's nothing too recognizable. When he's done, he sighs and drops his head down while he hugs you closer to him. His arms leave your ass and they wrap around your frame, gripping you tightly making you giggle.

"Fuck, that was amazing." you comment, pecking his shoulder where you bit him. It's too dark to see if there's any mark, but you hope not. You made sure you weren't biting him too hard.

"Yeah," he breathes, chest heaving with harsh breaths while his length starts to soften. "That was... different." he chuckles, hands gently caressing your back that makes you hum.

"I could fall asleep like this." you murmur against his neck, cuddling to him even more.

A soft chuckle leaves his mouth, his hand gently slapping your ass. "No, you can't sleep now. You gotta pee and put some clothes on, you're gonna get cold like this."

He's right, now that your lust has been fulfilled, you can already feel the real temperature in the tent. Your skin is no longer hot and that same rush of heat that came with each moment of pleasure is gone. Even though your body still tingles from the intense orgasm, it's just not enough to keep you warm anymore.

"Nooo," you whine, cuddling to him even more while your perked nipples rub against his chest. He bites his lower lip, cringing when his length slips out of you and you whine again. "Can't you just cover our bodies?"

You try, knowing you're just teasing him and you'll be shivering any minute. Jungkook groans at your stubbornness and you smile.

"No, now come on. Go pee." he slaps your ass again, making you jerk as you pull yourself up and stare at him.

"What if something's out there?" you ask, simply out of curiosity and maybe out of fear as well.

"I'm going with you, big baby," he grins, rolling his eyes at you that you can't see. He's sitting up, hoisting your bodies in the process. "But we need to put some clothes on."

Sighing, you put your clothes back on, cringing when your juices meet the material of your panties. Regardless of that, you fully dress yourself and let out a hum of content when you're warm again. Jungkook does the same thing, disposing himself of the condom full of his cum as he makes sure he'll throw it somewhere safe. You're both stumbling out of your tent, seeing there's no one awake and there's complete darkness around you. Good.

But still, when Jungkook lights up the flashlight on his phone, you're both grinning at yourselves and you just know, you're going to be sleeping heavenly tonight.

🍓🌙 STRAWBERRY MOON • PICK A CARD

What Are You Harvesting & Releasing This Full Moon? 🌕

Hello loves! 💌

Welcome to this special Strawberry Moon pick-a-card reading 🌕🍓 I hope you’re all doing well and being gentle with yourselves.

As always, let’s keep things kind & supportive.

This full moon is about ripening, release, and reconnection—so let’s dive into the guidance waiting for you…

**NOTE: This is a collective reading, take what resonates. Take a deep breath & close your eyes. Try to pick one pile or two that you are the most drawn to.**

Pile I. Pile 2. Pile 3.

✦ PILE I.

🍰 Song: In the Kitchen—Mree

✧ Cards Pulled: Queen of Swords

Three of Cups (rx), Eight of Wands (rx), Two of Cups (rx)

The Chariot, Wheel of Fortune, Knight of Wands

Six of Wands

Ten of Wands (rx), The Lovers (rx)

Four of Cups (rx)

…

This was interesting, before I could pull for the rest of cards— the Queen of Swords flew out. This signals cutting through the fog and gaining mental clarity about a direction you want to head in. You’re in a state where you are done being stuck or afraid to cut ties or advocate for yourself. You’re done being emotionally manipulated or dragged for the benefit of others. Major clarity era incoming. You’re shutting toxic ties and cycles and honoring your higher selves.

For you, I see that this period is about harvesting the wisdom from fake relationships or connections that didn’t work out. You know what isn’t a connection and now can work on and call in what is. You are releasing and closing cycles that are dragging you. There’s no more running into situations recklessly or acting in erratic ways. There’s major karmic cycles that are being fulfilled, you’re gaining better control instead of being whipped by new ideas or heartbreak.

You’re being supported by the universe and your spirit team in learning these lessons the hard way. No matter how difficult it must felt, you’re getting your recognition from your spirit guides and the universe. I’m getting the message that they want you to know: you’re more capable and strong willed than you think. Trust your instincts and intuition moving forward. You are always being divinely guided.

To continue harvesting this moon energy for growth you need to drop past burdens. You’re not cattle, you’re not meant to carry what doesn’t belong to you. You need to also stop choosing people and situations that drain you because they are familiar and comforting. If you want to grow and attract your desires you need to be more deliberate in your actions. Actions speak louder than words. If you want love, stop going back to familiarity that costs your peace. When you continue on this path and nurture yourself, you stop waiting for life to feel like something and start living it. If you want success, act like you already have it. The second you stop fantasizing about life and start living it — everything shifts.

✦ PILE II.

🍰 Song: Kiki’s Song —Mree

✧ Cards Pulled: Two of Swords (rx)

The Lovers (rx), Three of Swords, Six of Pentacles (rx)

Death

Five of Wands (rx)

The Hierophant (rx), The Chariot

…

After a loop of hesitation or doubting there comes inner clarity. You could’ve been in a lot of doubt about a particular situation—could have to relate to work, school, relationships. But, under this full moon what is being harvested is powerful: clarity from inner paralysis.

You are no longer in limbo of action vs stagnation. You are making choices to move forward in your life. You are burning through overthinking, doubts, emotional clutter, heartbreak, lack of self worth, and other imbalances. You are giving up cycles of over giving your time and energy while not feeling enough. This is huge shadow work energy.

Like a phoenix rising from the ashes, the energy of transformation has come. The Death is telling me you are shredding off old identities and fears about outcomes or self. Deep transformations and transitions in life are reshaping your life in the way you move and interact in the world.

To use this moon’s energy for growth you need to stop withholding your own breakthrough. You’re at a threshold of inner change, but you’re resisting it. Allowing for your transformation to happen, you break old systems, routines, or structures in your life that use define you and now hold you back. This helps new opportunities pull you into alignment with your life’s purpose and power. You begin to gather momentum and autonomy over your life. Momentum = direction. You’re rebuilding yourself leaving old tools and systems in the past to gain new ones to better serve you. You cannot carry big dreams on a mindset built on fear and limiting beliefs of “what if it doesn’t happen?”. It is time to let it go & allow yourself to breathe.

✦ PILE III.

🍰 Songs: When you come home—Mree

✧ Cards Pulled: Four of Pentacles, Justice, Six of Pentacles

Seven of Pentacles, Six of Cups (rx), Nine of Cups (rx), Eight of Pentacles (rx)

Ace of Cups (rx)

Four of Wands

Six of Swords, The Emperor, Three of Cups (rx), Five of Swords (rx), The Lovers

…

Before I could finish shuffling, The Sun and Five of Cups came—and it seems this pile holds lot of light and potential within but doesn’t see it. You seem to be stuck on the things that are not working out rather than things that are. You are grieving ideas, situations, or dreams that didn’t work out. It’s valid, but it shouldn’t overshadow your potential.

This full moon is teaching you how to receive and give equally. You’re learning balance through boundaries. Perhaps you’ve held too tight to people or things that drained you, thinking control is love. Now, you are realizing that control and holding to things/people make them slip faster. You’re choosing fairness in the ways that you approach relationships and connections with yourself and others.

You’re releasing past investments, plans, relationships that didn’t work out and past nostalgia illusions that kept you locked. You are not blindsided anymore and are seeing things for what they are. You are realizing what you thought you wanted isn’t something you want anymore. You’re letting out of the idea that in order to get love and success you have to overwork yourself. You’re at the stage of forgiving yourself for past mistakes and trying so hard to please to others.

Oddly enough, what’s giving you support is emotional numbness. You may be numbing, dissociating, or distracting yourself from how you feel and as unexpected it sounds—it’s helping. You’re emotionally detoxing to ease into healing.

Use this moon’s energy to come back into union with yourself and ground yourself. Allow joy and celebration to come back into your life whether it’s with your family, friends, spirit guides, your person—or just you, sitting in the sun for longer than usual. Let these moments rebuild trust and love in yourself. Celebrate the little moments and joys of life no matter how small. Take care of yourself the way you wished others would.

If you stay this path—of letting go, forgiving, and reclaiming— you will gain structure and balance in your life. By letting go of past baggage that made you feel small, you will gain more tools, opportunities, and love for yourself and others.

🌕 That’s all for this Strawberry Moon Reading! 🍓

Thank you for being here for my second full reading—it truly means a lot. I love reading your comments about which piles resonated with you. Thank you for trusting me with your energy and your time.

I hope to see you in the next reading. Until then, be gentle with yourself & take care…

With love, cherwi <3

Finished rewatching Wizards so have my brief bulletin-point notes on it, specifically on all the weird inconsistencies, ect

some of these may be me overthinking tho but

- Blinky being the only one visibly beaten up even though we know they all fought The Green Knight, call me a conspiracy theorist but I feel like it’s a subtle thing from the writers to say “hey, look at the pathetic scholar that can’t defend himself and isn’t a competent fighter!”

- Arthur being related to Morgana even though that puts into question previously established lore saying Morgana is “as old as me [Merlin] if not older”

- Merlin being loyal to Arthur even though that goes against his whole moral code, he should be his own independent force

- Claire being very wishy-washy on Morgana from hating her to liking her to hating her again

- Claire constantly saying “I miss Jim!” And “I miss my shadow staff!” Gets grating after 4 episodes but you can call this more of a personal preference, I can see what they were trying to do but it just came off as annoying to me

- why is Callistas village above ground, not even in hobbit hole houses but like a literal normal above ground village you’d expect humans to live in moreso than Trolls

- Callista saying she was captured so young she doesn’t remember her original name which fucks up the previously established way trolls age unless Arthur and the lot are all immortal

- the Trolls acting like they’ve known Callista previously even though as stated she’s been captured for- what’s hinted at- her entire life

- Blinky being insistent he goes by Blinkous yet we get no explanation on why he changed to Blinky

- them claiming Blinky is a pacifist even though they had him enthusiastically say he wanted to torture Arrrgh and boil him

- never having Dictatious say “even the word hopeless isn’t void of hope” for a motivational speech

- Steve

- Having the amulet not already be an established concept even though it’s said in Trollhunter Daylight was used multiple times against Gunmar- and Callista fought him once..

- Acting like Killahead was always a human and troll affair when it wasn’t, yes the trolls were fighting for the protection of humans yes that was one of the reasons but it was specifically a Gumm-gumm vs good troll fight outside of Merlin and Morgana and that was away from the main battle ground. Adding more groups and factions at Killahead does not make it more “epic” or “grand” just unnecessarily cluttered

- Callista reading the inscription of the Amulet from the back like an idiot

- Blinky suddenly caring about Arrrgh after one friendly interaction eating socks when he wanted to (enthusiastically!) torture him

- Dictatious being dragged into the Darklands being made to be a gag when that is one of THE most important character defining moments for both him and Blinky, this moment affects so much later down the line but sure! Make it a gag!

- the show nerfing other characters to make Douxie look better. Examples being when they capture Bular and how they hand over the creation of the Amulet and sealing away Morgana to Douxie instead of Merlin. The original Amulet creation scene was the perfect show don’t tell way of showing us how strong Merlin is, how it’s emphasized Merlin created one of- if not the most- powerful items in the series with his bare hands, no help from giant machinery or Douxie mainly, like he DID NOT need another wizard to combine the pieces

- Bagdwella having a proper weapon but not Blinky and Dictatious who are much more major characters also we saw Blinky wielded proper weapons in the original Killahead

- the weird gross redemption of Morgana that completely ignores and brushes under the rug all the fucked up shit she did- someone get Angor Rot on the phone

- speaking of Angor Rot, how was he the one to scoop her out of the ocean what is going on with that guys lore

- turning Jim back into a human even though one of the reasons Trollhunters was so special was the fact actions had consequences like how they addressed Jim messed up after returning from the Darklands, a not thought through plan that resulted in the release of Gunmar, you get what I mean

- Gwen being more of a plot device than a character I care about

- Why couldn’t Douxie just leave the seals where they were. Like just leave that realm without grabbing them and it’s not accessible to anyone anymore, or could he not leave without grabbing them, could the arcane order access it still somehow?

- why did he use the actual seals as bait against The Order instead of a look-alike decoy

- Morgana did not deserve to go to heaven I want her and the past Trollhunters to trade places- yes this needed to be its one point

- Blinky acting like the shadow realm wasn’t safe anymore now that Morgana was alive again when they trapped her in the shadow realm, it was never safe to begin with, am I missing something?

- Merlin’s death, they should’ve removed the Steve puns Jesus Christ can you act mature for ten seconds

- Merlin and Douxie trying to be Blinky and Jim 2.0 and failing miserably

Edit bc I forgot to add it in but: Them completely changing Draals motivations on being Trollhunter. From wanting the Amulet to honor and avenge his father, showing how competent of a warrior he is just like him and to follow in his footsteps to just wanting the Amulet because he feels like it 😼

I can go more in-depth on any points if desired

Saturn and Mars, Inertia vs fire🔥

This one had to be written—it’s the perfect clash of energies: Saturn, the slow and heavy, and Mars, the bold and unstoppable.

Saturn

Saturnian energy is dense, calculated, and unforgiving. It holds you back, makes you second-guess, and clings to every little thought or memory as if letting go would somehow unravel everything. It’s guilt, fear, and the overwhelming sense of responsibility that makes every decision feel like a life-or-death situation.

Saturn is inertia. Once you’re caught in its loop, it’s like quicksand—hard to escape. You hold onto past emotions, people, habits—anything familiar—even when it weighs you down. It delays action, tests patience, and makes every step feel like dragging a ball and chain uphill. Saturn is that energy that keeps you calculating every move, constantly asking, What if I mess this up? It's too much inertia and too much clinginess, it makes your mind feel heavy.

Mars

Mars, on the other hand, is everything Saturn isn’t. It’s bold, immediate, and full of action. Mars doesn’t hesitate—it takes charge, owns its choices, and doesn’t waste time regretting them. It’s the energy that says, “I made this decision, and I’m going for it.”

Mars is actually considered as a malefic by modern astrologers , be it Manglik dosha, strong mars influence or anything. Mars doesn’t make one obedient, that’s why people hate it, they are usually wild , think of that kid in your class who just didn’t care what teacher or others thought of them and wrecked havoc . That’s mars but it’s also the warriors in a battlefield who would defend their territory with their lives. Having strong mars or mars in 1st house gives lot of testosterone, women with such placements grow some facial hair too. But in reality mars is benefic, mangal literally means benefic in Sanskrit. But people nowadays want others to follow them be easy to handle. Mars prevents that.

There’s no dwelling on the past or wondering if you should’ve done something differently. Mars is all about pushing forward, moving fast, and embracing whatever comes with it. It’s raw confidence and the freedom to act without overthinking. Where Saturn clings to the past and hesitates, Mars is ready to leap forward, leaving the old behind. It’s about vitality, momentum, and the thrill of making things happen.

How Martian Energy Remedies Saturnian Energy

For example, consider a boy who graduates, but then just sits around his house for years, overthinking everything—his past, his future, and every possible decision. He just keeps calculating which move would lead to what, and doesn’t take action, stuck in his routine. He wakes up late, eats, sleeps, and does this for 2-3 years, gaining weight and getting lazy. This is classic Saturn energy—stuck in inertia, too much thinking, and no real change.

What he needs is Martian energy. Mars would give him that itch to just stop overthinking and get off his butt. Mars doesn’t care about the calculations, the results, or the fear of failure. Mars says, "Just move, just do something." It’s the drive to act without worrying about everything else. Warriors with strong Mars energy don’t sit there calculating the consequences of battle. They don’t wonder about the families of the soldiers they face(poor them , how will they cope?) or whether they’ll survive and what their kids or family will do. They just charge forward with a battle cry, all in, without hesitation or fear. That’s Martian energy—the willingness to act, to fight, and to move, no matter what. It’s the antidote to the inertia of Saturn, breaking through the weight of hesitation and getting things done.

Mars in vedic astrology is called purushottam(the ultimate masculine). Those who are going through saturn Md or have a weak saturn are advised to worship and embody the enrgy of lord Karthikeya(god of war) or Hanuman to overcome the adverse affects of saturn , these two deities embody strong martian energy and helps one overcome adversities

Tokyo, Japan, is a perfect example of the positive side of Saturnian energy. Tokyo embodies saturnian energo to the core, so understand saturn you can study tokyo. The city runs on strict order, discipline, and routine. Trains arrive on time showing the punctuality aspect, people use public transport , and students clean their school toilets. This shows the humilty which saturn signifies. The compact living spaces, people live in such small houses showing restriction and work so hard .Everything is organized, clean, and everyone contributes to maintaining the system. The sexual restraint and everything.The adherence to routine, despite the challenges of a densely populated city, has led to its development and success. The people continue this cycle of responsibility and order, driven by Saturn’s pull to maintain structure and stability.

On the opposite side , a hugely populated city in India, showcases the negative aspects of Saturn’s inertia. Despite efforts to clean and maintain order, garbage piles up on the streets, and people continue to throw litter despite campaigns to encourage proper waste disposal. There is no order and the population is huge. Public spaces are often dirty, and people resist change, whether it's keeping their environment clean or following simple guidelines. This inertia extends to bureaucracy as well—administrative tasks are delayed endlessly, and people find themselves caught in endless cycles of inefficiency. Poverty, laziness, and a lack of motivation to improve contribute to the stagnation. Still complaining about how the Mughals and Brits ruined their culture which is kinda true but you have e to get 2 it, it’s over .Saturn’s energy here creates a system of stuckness, where nothing seems to move forward despite repeated efforts, showing how the same force that can build structure can also trap people in a cycle of stagnation and delay. Only a very strong , changing force can help the city move above this.

Different cities and even countries embody different energies. I love the place where I live , it’s calm and serene.

India as well.

The United States embodies Martian energy through its boldness, action, and drive to push forward. The country's foundation is built on independence, innovation, and a constant urge to conquer new frontiers. Americans often focus on immediate solutions, embracing risks and taking action rather than overanalyzing situations. It's unapologetic invasion of Iraq and afghanistan and spending a large sum of the tax money on R&D of weapons and military without hesitation or stressing too much about consequences shows the martian spirit. They can go to any possible length to get what they want and dont care about others. The culture of competition and success, seen in business, sports, and politics, reflects Mars' spirit of moving forward and overcoming obstacles without hesitation. The US thrives on speed, adapting quickly to challenges and constantly striving for more.

Idk about other texts but in ancient texts like Ramayana, the people in trouble or the protagonists never go on thinking like, why did I have to do that? It would have been different of that happened or they did that. That energy isn’t benefic in nature, in such cases martian energy is crucial to navigate through the difficulties

In conclusion, Saturn is like a glue or heavy weight that makes you feel burdened and cling to things. It makes the idea of change or moving forward difficult, as if you’re carrying an extremely heavy backpack. Imagine it’s freezing cold outside, and you’re in your cozy bed at 3 a.m., and someone asks you to get up and go out. That’s what being under Saturn’s influence feels like—holding onto comfort, resisting change, and feeling the weight of responsibility or fear, making every action seem harder than it truly is.

In opposition, Mars is like waking up on the morning of a beach vacation—no plans, no overthinking, just excitement to go with the flow and live in the present. It’s the energy that gets you out of bed, ready to explore, take risks, and enjoy the moment without worrying about the past or future. While Saturn makes you hesitate and weigh every step, Mars thrives on instinct and action, pushing you to just move forward and figure things out as you go. It’s freedom, momentum, and the thrill of simply doing.

Have a good one 🫶

oh?, choi san

classroom crush! ateez san x gn! reader (nonchalant vs oa lmao) FINALLY SOME FLUFF wc: 2.2k warnings: none that i know of a/n: i've done so much of this storyline i think this might be the last one of it

San remembers his first day as a returnee, striding down the hallway to his room, notes and pens tucked in his arm. Upon entering his room, was delightedly welcomed by one of the regular students- you.

"Hi, is this seat taken?" San asks cautiously as he points at the seat beside you, crouching to hear you better. When you turn your head to look at him, but instead, your jaw drops.

"Well aren't you fucking gorgeous," Is that even a whisper? San was astonished, blinking at you. It was needless to say that he was intimidated by that single line, feet discreetly stepping back and escaping the situation. "Sorry. Slipped. No one sits there," Your poker face confuses him more. You're a weird junior. You quickly focus back on your phone, as if you hadn't just said the most compliment San could ever receive.

"Ah, thanks... But I think I'll just find ano-," When he whips his head around to find another seat untaken, he panics. You don't look awkward at all, but San is. He doesn't want that. But there aren't any seats left, and he isn't close with anyone to strike a conversation just to switch seats with him. So he dejectedly takes a seat, scooting farther, maybe just a bit, away from you.

The day just wouldn't end like that, San just had to forget to bring an index card- the whole class did. And you just had to be prepared for it. Out of all his blockmates, it just had to be you. It makes everything hard for him when you hand all of your classmates a card one by one, when it all came down to him.

"You have one?" One was already hanging loose between your index and middle finger, handing it to him. It takes him a few more seconds before he shyly takes the card and thanking you softly, and he glances at you to see if you're really unbothered by the thing a while ago.

You really were.

At that point on, San had considered you a friend (he hopes you do too) that he can count on. Being a returnee wasn't easy, and you helped him adjust to the environment quite easily. You were someone who was blunt, straightforward. Unlike San, who overthought every situation he had been, and will most likely overthink the coming situations.

"Oh San. Hello. Are you at the room right now?" You quickly ask right when he answers your call. When he hums, "I forgot my extra shirt under my desk. Do you mind bringing it over here to the gym? Please and thank you."

Like you gave him a choice. He chuckles to himself, just agreeing and immediately getting into action. He retrieves your extra shirt for PE (which he, thank god, had taken already and passed the last year before he went for LOA) and jogs to the gym, where he finds exiting students already. When he asks a familiar face of where you are, they just point inside the gymnasium.

At last, the gym only had a number of students getting ready to leave, and he still doesn't see a strand of your hair. When he tries to reach his pockets for his phone, he sighs when he realizes he left it at your desk.

He cautiously walks to the changing room, where he tries to shout out loud, bravely, calling for your name.

"y/n... please come out, I have your shirt and there's no one else to ask a favor for," He thinks if you're even still there. But when he hears footsteps approaching he perks up.

Not until he sees you, though. He immediately turns red, and I mean literally red, and immediately- when he sees you only covered with a towel. He stands frozen in place, shirt in his hand reaching out to you.

"What, first time seeing a person half naked, pretty boy?" Your nonchalance was killing him inside. You thank him as you retrieve your shirt, asking him to wait for you since he was there already. As if you had just done the most normal thing friends do.

Or was San just not used to this friend-thing relationship that was normal for you?

"Hey, y/n. How are you?" San starts, the chair scraping the marbled floor.

"Good. You?" You reply simply, not even glancing at him.

"Good too," San nervously chuckles, but you don't buy it. With a simple whisper of 'spit', he folds. "Well... Not good, actually. I haven't been feeling well the past few days and I really want to stay in today but I had a quiz this morning. I really want to attend this class since I'm here already but my body's declining. Would you be so kind to share your notes for today?" San rambles, immediately feeling sorry for the inconvenience already.

"Okay." You answer, nodding at him. He waits a few more seconds to see if you'll add onto that, but nothing comes out. So he immediately thanks you, standing up and ready to leave when you grab his sleeve.

"Right, here. I've been meaning to give this." You throw him a small paper bag full of meds, "Get well soon. Miss you already," He doesn't know whether that was sarcastic or not. He doesn't care. What matters were the medicines in his hand, released from the pharmacy dated to three days ago, when he started feeling under the weather and has been doing everything to hide it.

He feels... weird. You're weird.

He remembers all that. That's how it has always been for the two of you. All along, he thought that he was the one who... he doesn't know. He doesn't even know, but all along he thought it was a him problem. Not a you problem.

So why were you here, in front of him, confessing your love for him?

Not the pretty-boy-adoration level, but a serious kind of level.

"I like you, Choi San. I think it's been for a while already." San couldn't figure you out until the end. So he figures that maybe, all this time, it's not a romantically-inclined interest he had for you, but a rather type of 'you're a weird-fun that's why you keep me on my toes' kinda thing.

And he doesn't want that. He doesn't want that for you because you deserve better. Just because you were a fresh air for him, doesn't mean that he'd only keep you to have his own part of fun.

"Uh... y/n..." He doesn't know what to say. He hopes to keep the friendship you've been building, but he also needs your keep of the decision for that. "Sorry, but..."

"Okay." You shrug, smiling at him. "It's fine. I get it. Don't worry, we can go back and act like nothing happened, right?" You didn't even let him finish. But he thinks he dodged a bullet there. Because of how he knows himself, he would've fucked it all up without meaning to if you let him finish. "Let's go back to the room?" You pat his arm, and you were back to being... unbothered. Like you didn't just get rejected.

Did San read too much romantic novels? Watch too much movies? To expect more reaction from you?

But apart from all that's raging his mind now, he follows you back to the room, and just like you- it feels like nothing happened. Maybe, it was better that way.

But when he asks your friend Yeonjun why he was going through your desk, and answers you asked to bring him your extra shirt and bottle of water to the gym, he's dumbfounded.

Not that he had some grudge for Yeonjun, but... hadn't you always asked him with that? I thought we're back to being whatever you were before the confession? Why was he now looking at Yeonjun like just committed a heinous crime?

But he lets Yeonjun off the hook (partially because Yeonjun was now sprinting out of the room to get to you and he didn't had the leisure to confront Yeonjun about it) and stares at the empty seat beside him, left with only traces of you.

Maybe, just maybe, Yeonjun crossed your mind first this time around, than San.

But well oh well, it happens again.

"Yeonjun, can you pass me the scale ruler, please? Oh and could you grab these plates unharmed and go with me to the office to drop these off before class ends," San was sure prior the confession, you had always asked him around. But now... what the hell?

"We can go now," Yeonjun stands up with no complain, getting all of the plates to go with you while you prepare. Why is Yeonjun acting like all of this is normal? Like... isn't he finding it weird that he's now the one getting asked around, not him?

San could now rip his hair all out for all he knows. He thought you wanted to go back to normal? Why is he noticing even the littlest changes now? Why is he so frustrated anyway?

His last resort was now two weeks after the confession, and everything has changed for him. Maybe just him, because he had started even noticing the smallest changes in your actions, or if it even changed- from the looks of it of other people's point of view, it didn't. But for him, a lot has changed.

"y/n, do you want to go get materials for the next project together later?" San encourages himself to initiate an offer, while the both of you were alone after a while, Yeonjun having something to cram on during break.

"Oh, San. Sorry, I already promised Yeonjun that I'll help him with his requirements later." You reply, biting your sandwich and glancing at him, then back to your book

"Tomorrow?" San was desperate. He wanted to make things right, but he doesn't even know if there were things to correct in the first place. Why does he feel so responsible and desperate when he's the one who rejected you?

"...You want to meet on a Sunday?" You slowly set your book down, gawking at him.

"That's a problem now?"

"Oh now your attitude's a problem." With his snarky remark, you immediately rebut it with yours. You were getting confused of how he has been acting, like... he's also confused. You were back to acting how you were before you confessed, only San wasn't.

"What about my attitude, huh?" San presses, scooting closer to you to annoy you more lividly. You scoff, amused at the newly found attitude your senior had.

"What the hell is your problem, San?" You scoff in disbelief, a smirk in your lips at the amusement.

"You know what, now that we're in the topic anyway, let me ask you that. What the hell is your problem, y/n?" He starts, eyebrows furrowing into confusion. Yours raise, because what the hell was he talking about? "You confess and okay, I rejected you, I was expecting that you will never talk to me again because that's how it usually goes, but then you say that we can go back to acting like it never happened."

"So? I did!" You almost try and fight him, if it weren't for his palm flying to your mouth to shut you up.

"You! Didn't!" San rebuts, "It's always Yeonjun here, Yeonjun there- did you not like me anymore just like that?! Have you moved on quickly? Do I deserve getting ignored because I was too ignorant of my own feelings?!" San was now mad at himself. He always was.

Because if you answered yes to all of his questions, the blame falls into himself.

He let you go that easily. Just like that. All because of his uncertainties, really?

"Of course I still like you, idiot! Do you think I get over feelings fast like that?!" You push his hand away, your panicked state was a reflection of his panicked state. You were supposed to be the cool one here, but hearing San panic made you panic.

"Then why the hell are you avoiding me?!"

"You're crazy, I'm not! I'm acting the way I am!" You exasperatingly fight back, because you know you're right. "You're overthinking things like how you always are, okay, I get it." You calm down, because if you weren't no one was going to. "I'm sorry, okay, I didn't notice this time around, I'm sorry I should've been more careful."

"Why are you apologizing now... I should be. You must be so confused of how I am acting right now..." San starts, shoulders drooping, lips turning to a pout. "I've only come to agreement to my feelings just now, y/n. I'm so sorry I came too late," San grabs your hand, caressing it.

You almost turn into a ball at how San was acting, feeling all giddy and happy at the same time.

"Really? San, I don't want you saying anything at the heat of the moment, you can take your time. This might only be because you were overly cautious of my actions after my confession which made you confused. You can take your time, San." You caress his hand with your other, smiling at him.

"No, I've just been trudging it out longer. I've been feeling this way ever since we met. But if I told you that earlier, it would've been weird, wouldn't it?" With a chuckle, you pull San for a hug, one that had been long overdue.

"Fuck Yeonjun, he can cram all by himself."

Whenever people compare Hazel and Timmy its like why r we making two bad bitches fight, they could easily be best friends guys, like I fully think Hazel would help Timmy kinda think his actions though and help him actually process his emotions while Timmy would help Hazel to try not to overthink things and that everything will be ok in the end. Cosmo and Wanda love BOTH of them guys, yes there's a difference in status (IE. Hazel doesn't need Cosmo and Wanda as her parental figures, being more like aunt/uncle vs Timmy who kinda does, and has more of an adopted kid vibe with them) but that doesn't make Timmy or Hazel bad characters!! Nor does it make Timmy or Hazel a worse godkid, I legit just think they both show different styles of godparenting respectfully, and I think that's perfect? It was obvious that Cosmo and Wanda were doing something different with Timmy, Him being proclaimed the favorite, as well as the amount of time they spent with him in general. Timmy was a lot more neglected then Hazel, and I think Cosmo and Wanda had more of a parental attachment to him.

Hazel though has different problems, she has more severe anxiety and is in a new place that she's having trouble adjusting too! and unlike timmy, she experienced a loss of a caretaker when she was a kid, which is a different type of pain than having no caretaker. Comso and Wanda don't try to be Hazel's parents though, rather just another adult figure in her life that she can go too!! Yes I think that Hazel is a lot more fortunate than Timmy and I won't lie one of my criticisms for the new show is the fact that she too happy, which contradicts a lot of the OG's shows' logic that Godkids have to be miserable, but I think this was done for a writing shift, so that so much humor wasn't focused on the cynical tried to be funny outlook they had with Timmy, but actually focused on the fun a godparent CAN be! Hazel is still an amazing protagonist and cause of her we get more fun adventures with Cosmo and Wanda, and adventures in her world too!

I also think that Timmy in general is a more compelling main character but that's cause of my own preferences and beliefs. Im sure there are so many kids rn who watch A New Wish and see themselves in Hazel, like how so many of us saw ourselves in Timmy! I think there's a lot of misinformation and mischaracterization between both of them, and it sucks ALOT!! Im not super into a new wish as I am compared to the old show, but I can respect both protagonists without trying to make the other one seem any less. Saying that Timmy is worse then Hazel just feels like were writing off his characters to the bare bones that were kinda fucked up by butch Hartman himself. If you actually watched and took time to see his character, you'd see how he always just wanted to be a part of his family in the end, that a lot of his wishes were suppose to be somewhat selfless, and meant for the people he loved to be happy!! The "selfish" wishes he made were made out of emotional distress, which, what 10-year-old isn't experiencing at all times??? He had severe circumstances that its hard to draw the line as to what was just cartoon exaggeration vs what his reality is, cause as the show went on his parent's disdain for him felt very real.

He still stood up though, and he put his fairies safety above all else at times, and its so sweet, and shows how much Timmy really was part of their family. He is very much an average kid who no one understands and its sooo funny that it ended up being like that in the general public as well. Timmy did the best with what he had and tbh it was amazing!! I really loved the found family of it all and I do think he belongs with Cosmo and Wanda <3 BUT I THINK IN TERMS OF SHOWS, THEIR BOTH GOOD PROTAGS!! they just have diff storytelling/different circumstances and both are experiencing a different style of godparenting

im saying this as one of the top 10 Timmy Turner fans ever btw

...huh...

Why didn't the salt writers focus on Chloe? Like it would be awful for Marinette, Lila, Sabrina, and probably Adrien characterization wise. Was Chameleon that effective at frying everyone's brain?

Oh boy. So there were...... a few factors.

1.) Because Chloé is a character who, within canon, is a jerk and often gets comeuppance for her bad actions, it's harder to qualify anything that goes along with this as 'salt'. Because it is in character to an extent.

Now some fics would have her worse than Canon, but that's more the tone of the fic. Like Canon is cartoony and g rated so the bullying is like putting gum on seats. But if your fic is more for a teen and up audience then toss in a slur ya know? But it's only as out of character as say canon's cartoon 'no one gets hurt' vs us making a murder au.

But anyway. Most things that would qualify as salt/bashing aren't treated as such because it's within the realm of what she'd do. Thus aren't called as such and certainly not tagged.

1.5.) While there were criticisms of characters before, Chameleon really kicked off a lot of over-analyzing character's flaws.

Everyone looked at Alya with a critical eye and how she had previously tried to expose Ladybug's identity(something that could put LB in so much danger) or the way she gave Mari the push to talk to Adrien when the girl was overthinking things

Adrien got this too. The way he didn't put his foot down with Chloé all the time, or his flirting with Ladybug, or how he'd thought of giving up when LB kept keeping him in the dark about things.

These flaws got twisted into malice. Now they think Alya is just a gloryhound who doesn't care who gets hurt as long as she's praised for her journalism, and who is a rabbid shipper who is fine putting people in uncomfortable situations to get her ship going. Meanwhile Adrien was somehow both the most passive doormat that victim blames anyone who dared to not take abuse lying down but also down to ignore the Akuma in favor of sexually assaulting Ladybug and throwing a tantrum when he didn't get his way.

But the thing with Chloé is that all her actions previously were /supposed/ to be shitty. There's no way to twist it, no revelation of toxic behavior hidden under a sweet facade. She was just a bitch and we knew it and there's no new information to get out of that.

2.) Chameleon aired in Season 3. Where Chloé was getting more wins and development in a good direction. She had her backslides ofc, but most of her screentime was spent doing a lot more good.

Meanwhile other characters such as Alya for example had some bad moments. Like on top of everything with Lila we also have her taking that photo of the Ladynoir kiss and posting it without permission in Oblivio, or Startrain where she risks a lot of danger because she thinks Chloé(a teammate she's supposed to trust in such matters)is making shit up for attention, or hijacking Juleka's big moment in favor of trying to push Adrienette and causing Reflektdoll.

So yeah Chloé kept having good moments. Up until Miracle Queen but that's a different conversation

3.) Chloé is one of the few people who didn't "turn against" Marinette in Chameleon and didn't believe Lila's lies.

Now that's somewhat because she didn't even do much in Chameleon. Pretty sure she didn't even get a line she was just in the background.

But she and Sabrina are the only ones who didn't change seats. She didn't weigh in on the Mari vs. Lila fight over sitting next to Adrien. She wasn't fawning over Lila at any point.

Now this does get kinda confirmed later in Miraculer. Chloé doesn't know/care who Lila is, and doesn't believe her lies. This now makes her better than everyone else in a vs. Lila plot because she has the potential to ally with Marinette either because of redemption arc reasons or because she hates Lila more

4.) Combining all of the above got this weird narrative of like. Marinette couldn't forgive the classmates, because they were friends who betrayed her. But she could forgive Chloé because when she did shitty things, they weren't friends.

Which... I get the idea but I do have mixed feelings on it.

5.) Racism. Like some of it is just undertones. But Chloé is white and she's often juxtaposed to Alya who is black. And one of these girls gets a LOT more criticsm than the other
