Wooga Squad reacting to Our Beloved Summer Ep. 11 epilogue kiss

Mid-year recalibration

It's been a year since Festa Dinner 2022. A LOT HAS HAPPENED SINCE THEN.

And on January 1, 2023, I posted my "predictions" for the year. "Predictions" in quotes because most everything I write is sort of slightly unserious, not to be taken TOO seriously, begs for you to please use your common sense... also I haz a little sarcasm dripping here and there when I express my thoughts. Drip, drip.

So let's see the status of my "predictions":

Solo albums... wellll, I sort of got that right, Jimin's FACE was released before Yoongi's D-Day. We're still waiting for Tae and Jungkook. RM keeps putting off enlistment to work on new music. I'm gonna have to drag him by the ear to training camp... get yer ass in there so you can come back sooner than later!! But we did get to see him for Festa and I'm thankful for that.

New prediction: Jungkook comes through with a chart topper that doesn't involve a collab.

Speaking of Tae, I said he'd do more acting before music and though it's not really acting, he's been in a few reality TV shows: "In the Soop: Friendcation" and "Jinny's Kitchen." There are rumors he was spotted on the set of a K-drama and now possibly he was in Spain for a movie...or was that for an upcoming solo MV? Surely he'll have at least a little bit of music before he enlists? Honestly, I wouldn't mind seeing him actually acting in a drama... we wait.

New prediction: Piano bar listening party for his solo release.

Military enlistment... wow so far I've struck out. Joon is still hanging around. Yoongi has extended his world tour (which I'm happy to say I've been to a concert). And HOBI IS ALREADY ENLISTED....

😭

So 3 strikes I'm out because obviously their enlistment timing is unpredictable. Right now I'm just hoping that by May 2024 (yes almost a year from now) they'll all be in so we can have a New Year group reunion on Dec. 31, 2025. Of course, I hope they go much sooner though it kills me to know we have to watch them enlist again and again.

My other predictions were hit and miss:

Yoongi did cut his hair so I was wrong about that. Also sad. I loved his long hair. And this NBA ambassadorship came outta left field. The D-Day world tour was the bomb he dropped on us, his big project. Oh well, guess there won't be any tangerine soju coming from his non-existent citrus orchards. Ha!

Hobi DID release more music, On the Street, and it WAS a collab with J. Cole. AND he became fashion ambassador for his fave: Louis Vuitton. God I miss him so much. Instagram is so quiet without him. Everything is so quiet without him.

We finally got PJM1 and it has a name now, FACE and Like Crazy has broken records. Jimin as an artist has broken records as we knew he would and he is still making music. And he's travelling the world being a Dior and Tiffany ambassador and snatching everyone's wig, eating everyone alive and just being Jimin. His constant happy smile has been the most meaningful thing to me this year. I'm so thrilled he is happy.

Jungkook... the Bunkoo has stumped me. The Calvin Klein contract is amazing. His spontaneous lives have been wonderful. Cooking for us has been awesome. None of that could have been predicted. He's the sweetest king of spoilers and support for Jimin's stuff. I also did not predict I would love him even more this year. But here we are.

NOT ON THE PREDICTION RADAR WHATSOEVER:

Jimin on a Fast & Furious franchise soundtrack collab. I NEED MORE JIMIN!

Tae and Jennie "soft" revealing their relationship publicly. Like WHAT? But they did that.

Also blonde Tae... I never thought we'd see a blonde Tannie again.

Attending a Suga/Agust D concert and meeting up with Army friends I met on the internet. HIGHLIGHT OF THE YEAR!

[I can't believe I saw Yoongi in real life. This close.]

2023 is already half way over. I have no idea what will happen this second half of 2023. It's a mystery.

As much as I am reveling in having so much to look forward to every day and every week, and as much as I wish this didn't have to happen...I (selfishly) really want them to get enlisted so they can be back together as soon as possible in 2025 (at any point in 2025). The first time I see them together in 2025, I am going to cry with relief. However I am always the first to say BE CAREFUL WHAT YOU WISH FOR so I know I shouldn't even been saying any of that...

Anyway...

I guess at the end of December, I will be looking back and saying "well, who would have thought THAT would happen?" More of "not on the prediction radar." By December, Jin will only have six months left. Time is flying faster than I thought it would when back on June 13, 2022. After that heartbreaking Festa dinner, we were staring down a bleak two and a half years of being Bangtan-less....well that didn't happen did it?

Dear Yuletide Writer 2022

Dear Yuletide Writer

Thank you for writing for me! I am delighted you share my enjoyment of one of these tiny fandoms, congratulations on your taste :D 

ETA: Mods have asked for us to explicitly state this year if we would like treats: I LIKE TREATS :D

I have rambled about each one to give you a starting point, please write what you feel moved to write. I am very into stories about relationships - platonic, romantic, sexual and all the overlaps. I definitely enjoy an E rated fic but I’m always there for the characters first and foremost. 

&TEAM

Any

Having watched ‘I-LAND’ about a year late, I was fascinated by the contestants and the narratives woven around them. I definitely left with a vested interest in what was next. And then, excitement, K, Taki, Nicholas and EJ in this mysterious project that turned into &Audition and then &Team! I loved &Audition and Fuma crept up on me (as, as far as I can tell, he did on the producers, given his total lack of presence in ‘Final Countdown’) to become my favourite, so I was delighted when he made the cut. 

I would quite like something that stays more or less in ‘canon’ as in the formation of the band and their idol trainee careers, but clearly there’s a practically canonical werewolf situation going on here and I think that’s fascinating too. Also cool with omegaverse especially as it relates to ~dynamics.  

I’ve requested ‘Any’ and I would like fic for any of these guys, ideally about how they relate to each other rather than just about one of them, and I’m also up for all the ship combos, to whatever degree of heat you’d like to bring. Welcome to bring in the other members too but I’d rather not have ship fic with Jo, Harua, Taki, Maki or Yuma for any of these guys. You can bring in ENHYPEN members if you like especially in regard to I-LAND.

DNWs: Death, suicide/sucidal ideation, self-harm, non-con 

Some thoughts/squee/vague prompts if it helps:

DEBUT FEELS, PACK FEELS, FOUND FAMILY FEELS :D

how much older K and Fuma are than most debuters

K and Fuma in general processing being older/leadership and how they interact

Extrovert Nicholas and Introvert EJ

the way Nicholas looks after everyone

the journey from I-LAND to &Audition & second chances

Nicholas and Fuma’s amazing choreography

K and Fuma’s choreography (and Fuma MADE HIMSELF INTO A CHAIR for K in the final???)

Fuma helping EJ with the ‘Blue Hour’ group

Settling in as the new band  

IN THE SOOP: Friendcation RPF

Park Hyungsik

Park Seojoon

Wooga squad! This whole series just blows my mind, like, one day Kim Taehyung is like ‘I miss my buds, I know, I’ll ask my management to just commission us a reality TV fixed camera series at 3 days notice and we’ll all go snuggle in matching logo pyjamas’… I loved the vibe of the show - THERE WAS ONLY ONE BED - the cooking, the Park Seojoon-is-mathyung thing, the tender wistful talk about how their lives are going and the different ways they’re finding happiness, the general affection and cosy pleasures. 

I would love something either set in the IN THE SOOP timeframe/setting or in the wider history of these guys. My knowledge of them is, I will admit, limited to a certain amount of Hwarang behind-the-scenes and this show, so I am not going to nitpick or factcheck any details you want to invent about their lives - plus this is RPF, it’s all invented! I don’t know or care if either of them has a real life partner and for ship fic let’s say they don’t. I really dig their dynamic, especially in relation to their characters’ dynamic on Hwarang which was supposed to be rivals and came off way more like pissy yearning :D I would also be totally up for squad OT5 poly, or shipping either of these two with some/all other members of the squad, and I love Choi Minho so if you want to bring him in on the Hwarang connection be my guest. 

DNWs: Death, suicide/sucidal ideation, self-harm, non-con 

Some thoughts/squee/vague prompts if it helps:

Just total domestic vibes in the vacation home. Cooking, washing, snuggling, maybe dreaming about living together or how they can’t

THERE WAS ONLY ONE BED

Something something muscle kink

Hyungsik’s singing voice

Did the crush begin on the Hwarang set? 

All the hours spent chatting over video game comms

SNUGGLING FOR WARMTH

Old Fashion Cupcake 

Nozue Sanae

Togawa Minoru

This show was SO GORGEOUS. I’ve watched a fair few ‘BL’ and I just loved that this was about older characters with full lives, making discoveries about themselves and finding happiness. THE DEEP EROTICISM OF SOMEONE WHO MAKES YOU JOYFUL \o/ It was so sweet and also had moments that were so hot (when Togawa put his fingers in Nozue’s mouth, my god). Clearly they were only allowed 1 kiss on screen and frankly, dear author, I just want more of their happily ever after, anything and everything that entails. 

DNWs: Death, suicide/sucidal ideation, self-harm, non-con 

Some thoughts/squee/vague prompts if it helps:

First times - ALL OF THEM, first for the intimacies but also for the grocery shopping together, the holidays, the moving into the same apartment, the holding hands (somewhere safe) in public 

Queerness and identity discovery in a joyful way 

Backstories - who have they been with before? How does that compare? How do they feel about each other’s pasts? How do they discover it?

More little domestic daily pleasures

Curtain fic, honestly
