#zero challenge at all to pare that down

[yardsards]

the idea of a capsule wardrobe is so fucking bonkers to me cuz they're like

"you should only have 30-60 items"

and you're like wow that sounds tough

amd then you find out that that's PER SEASON and also doesn't include underwear and socks and pajamas and whatnot

and suddenly you're just like??? that's just a normal fucking amount of clothes???

they make it sound like it's some Revolutionary Minimalist Idea but it's just how normal people dress i think

"every item should be versatile and work in more than one outfit!" is that not how most people shop? like, we don't have money for one-outfit-wonders; that shirt better look good with at least two pairs of pants that we own or it's not worth it

Hello! I saw your requests were open, and I was wondering if I could request what seventeen would be like with a diabetic s/o? If this makes you uncomfortable, please ignore this ask. I don't want to make anyone feel uncomfortable.

Seungcheol

super cautious of foods when eating together

always asking you how you feel and if you need anything

would carry small juice boxes and some snacks with him everywhere just incase you needed it

if you prick your finger to check blood sugar he would be a little bit squeamish at first but eventually get used to it and ask to help you with it

same with insulin! he would be scared but would ask you to walk him through it and eventually would become a pro

if you have an electronic way to check he would always be checking it for you

jeonghan

would bully you if you couldn't eat smth with him

but it's affectionate

“do you want some?... oh you can't rn? haha loser all for myself then >:)”

would get you the same treat when you could have it

he's genuinely very caring and always making sure you're okay!

joshua

another one to constantly check in

asking how you feel and if you think you would need anything soon

great to be in public with, the second you mention your blood sugar going down he would find the nearest shop and get you your favourite drinks and snacks and bring you to a bench and sit with you

he's very worried give him a hug

jun

he would ask lots of questions

about how diabetes works, what's it like for you being diabetic etc etc

generally very curious

would go to any doctors appointments you had with you

personal cheerleader during harder days <3

hoshi

another super curious one

always asking questions about how it works, foods you can and cannot eat, when you can eat and how you know how much or when

would challenge himself to eat the same way you did to see what it would be like

if you prick your finger he would get you tiger band-aids

wonwoo

super understanding

it's a bad day and you don't wanna do anything extravagant or have to cancel plans? no worries wonu is on his way with some snacks and will play games or watch movies with you instead

would carry snacks or a drink for you but wouldn't admit it

“oh you're not feeling good? i have this drink i put in my bag earlier but i didn't drink it so you can have it if you want”

super sweet mwah mwah mwah

woozi

would ask if you could have coke zero

dependent on your answer he would still be happy, rather you both get to share or more for him!

would remind you to check your vitals if you're forgetful or you're busy

like id you're hanging out in his studio and it's been a while he'll turn to you and remind you to check

has a stash of snacks and some drinks for you in his studio that only you are allowed to have

will hit any of the other members if they try to steal a snack

minghao

knew generally about diabetes before he met you but when you two met and got closer he realized there was still a lot he didn't know

did some research on his own and likes to ask questions or fact check with you when he's not sure about something

would make sure his home is stocked with various diabetic safe food and drinks and let you know you never have to ask to take anything

mingyu

hes a little confused and kinda forgets sometimes but he's also very cautious of everything

will offer you some of his drinks or food and go “wait… can you have this?”

“aren't you allergic to that?” as you're having a drink on the couch and you just look at him like ??? then explain its not an allergy

immediately understands

watches you check your vitals cuz he thinks it's interesting and cool

bonus: explain to him how things work and different meanings to things and he will stare at you with big puppy eyes listening intently he's so interested!!

dk

if you had to prick your finger he may be scared and squeamish but he WILL sit there and hold you and tell you he's proud of you

doesn't matter if you tell him you've been doing this everyday for years he will still be your little cheerleader and comfort you

would be the best to be around during a bad day

he's always checking on you and is super sweet

you have the THOUGHT of wanting a snack? he's there with the snack and a kiss to your forehead

always making you laugh and lifting your mood

seungkwan

you're having a rough day? not if seungkwan could help it

he may not be able to fix everything right away but he's gonna do everything in his power to sure as hell try

always at your side, you need anything? he's getting it! don't even move a muscle,

need water? he's already gotten you matching water bottles to be extra cute

will check your blood sugar and give you insulin for you if you let him

vernon

also has snacks on him all the time

some for him, some for you, it's great

if you're having a rough day he would be so down to just go chill with you, he doesn't feel the need to always be doing big things with you. he lives for simple domestic things

may not understand much about what you go through on the daily but would be very open to learning from you

dino

super loving and knowledgeable about your needs

you know your body doesn't agree with certain foods and he's making sure that it's never around you

if you're about to eat something will always ask if you've checked it's okay first

if you're at a restaurant he will call ahead of time and ask about the menu or ask during the dinner to make sure you're safe

makes sure you pack any medicine you need if you're going out or on a trip

you mention you're not feeling the best and he's doing everything he can to make sure you're alright and get you what you need <3

hello baby. 🛷 Sled: how has your writing process changed this year? Or: are you going to try anything new in your process in 2023?

CiCi! I saw this ask earlier then I had to go make dinner and time got away from me. Here we go!

The biggest change has probably been...writing at all? I went from writing exactly zero to working on content all the time and it's been such an outlet for creativity that brings so much joy!

For actual changes, I've definitely gotten better at editing. I find it a lot easier than I used to, and knowing that I'm good at paring things down later is freeing when I'm doing the first draft. Bad line? Future LJ will edit that. Confusing time jump? Future LJ's got it covered. It's a nice feeling!

In 2023, I want to try more scheduling of my writing time. I'm still pretty all over the place with when I write, but I do thrive under setting deadlines so giving myself specific writing time should work better than being willy-willy about it. And I want to try doing more canon content instead of just AUs, even though I'll never stop writing those. But it would be a nice challenge to try some more!
