Feel like I need to make Tae fingerguns my entire personality.

Tae's eye contact with the camera. He knows exactly how much he can get away with because it's there, and how this audacity will be recognized and rewarded. Always an icon.

Very interesting interview with the President of Big Hit Music. Seon Jeong Shin knows what she's talking about re artistic authenticity and balance in a demanding industry. Nice values articulated around BTSs comeback, the label's use of AI tech, and the role of fans.

This is an interesting development. In Korea where real people perform anonymously as virtual artists who only appear through the interface of technology, a court has ruled that insulting the avatar is the same as insulting the person who gives life to that avatar.

These very kind words lead me to a bit of a reread and. man. I'm proud of this fic for serious reasons, but it also makes me laugh. I'm delighted by so many little moments. Namjoon sleeping on the floor? every scene in the bathroom? necromancer Disney princess? 2 AM piano oops? JK vs the "vultures"?

Thank you, Hallyu wave, for teaching me of the existence of tteokbokki and arranging for enough ingredients to be exported to Skandinavia so i can make delicious spicy salty sweet satisfaction in my own kitchen. i feel spiritually healed

For a while, i was reading tons of downloaded fics but was too dis-regulated to click back and leave kudos. Even when i managed to comment. I hope this creative community can forgive such lapses. It's fair to assume many hits are from appreciative readers even if they consumed the work in silence.

Reasonable to Want and Possible to Achieve made it to a small but mighty 200 kudos!!🥰🥰🥰💕💕 Thanks everyone who has interacted with this story or sent me a sweet comment. #namkookfic archiveofourown.org/works/619185...

that mixed blessing of guest kudos on a multi chapter work 😣 The repeat anon kudos hack ambiguities the kudos total, a violation of structural design. I know repeat-kudoers mean it kindly but it's upsetting to watch the relevance of kudos as a measure of satisfied readers be undermined.

The real reason Jungkook has such giant, starry eyes is that he has evolved to be optimized for an almost total absence of light

THIS IS NOT A DRILL!!! The production of TWELTH NIGHT with Lupita Nyong’o, Junior Nyong’o, Peter Dinklage, Sandra Oh, Jesse Tyler Ferguson, and Daphne Rubin-Vega is now on the PBS app!!!! www.pbs.org/wnet/gperf/t...

when i see jihope interact my brain yells "TWO DANCERS" continuously because they share that same easy physically, their bodies each mastered tools for both of them to play with together

Writer folks: do you ever write multiple POV fics? and if so, are there rules you try to follow in choosing which view to take for a given scene? do you switch often or per chapter? balance time per view? repeat scenes or use recall to reframe? Stay within the leads or drop into anyone's head?

I've been thinking about this fic and the premise of accommodations for hybrids in a human centric society for almost a year, and it's finally turning into a fic of its own! (and thus warranted a reread.)

A quick V #btsfanart

Trans, nonbinary, questioning people: you are loved, full stop. The world is cruel, and maybe you don't know anybody who supports you, but there are people out there who do. There is joy waiting for you. ❤️❤️

Blue and Grey and I want it to be GAY as FUCK. Gauzy and saturated like 70s French porn. Yearning and yearning and yearning inside the glass walls of an enormous ice castle with broken thrones and half-revealed faces. Singularity but GAYER

Joonie saying hes shy and cupping his cheeks cutely with his sweaterpaws is now my roman empire

in that early stage of menstruation where it's almost possible to believe the abdominal twinges are something else and that lying down will keep the mess at bay. Denial, my old friend, how I've missed you.

I cheered at the oblique Yoongi sign of life from Joonie saying members were gathered for a meeting yesterday. These crumbs will sustain us.

inexplicably perfect

happy Boraday 💜

At some point, the dam will break and we will see a rush of songs from prod. SUGA. Maybe not before the comeback, but soon. He's been busy.

“I wrote ‘Dear Toad, I am glad that you are my best friend. Your best friend, Frog.’” “Oh,” said Toad, “that makes a very good letter.” Then Frog and Toad went out onto the front porch to wait for the mail. They sat there, feeling happy together. 🐸♥️🐸 #Namgi #KimNamjoon #MinYoongi #FrogAndToad

In honor of 15 years, here’s my cutest Namgi contribution:

BTS was the gateway, more towards k-indie for listening, but Kpop is a fascinating music industry in its home market and beyond.

bringing this video of taehyung blushing when an army called him a 'puppy'

Two Years Ago today! Do you remember where you were when this happened? Were you there in person? Were you also at home completely in awe in front of your screens? #방탄소년단 #BTS #DailyBTS #DailyBangtan #BOTD #BangtanOfTheDay

here's a writery tuesday question do you have a recognizable style, or do you prefer to change things up from story to story? do you think you have tells that your readers could identify?

i need to make these socks. i haven't knitted in like a decade, but they are worth the effort www.ravelry.com/patterns/lib...

I designed a horseshoe crab sweater and published it on Ravelry on National horseshoe crab day! If you ever thought to yourself “man, I really want a hand knit sweater with horseshoe crabs on it” boy do I have great news for ya www.ravelry.com/patterns/lib...

is there a tradition of answering fic comments in November? not complaining or prompting, just surprised by the array of replies in my inbox.

Submitted something by deadline 😖 reviewers will be like "was that supposed to be a sentence?" and "no argument found" but maybe the pretty images will be enough for them to let me polish it up later. sigh academia.

Maybe every time Yoongi calls Jungkook "Kid" in fic, he is thinking "Baby goat"

What was your route into BTS? My route in 3 steps 1. Tiny Desk 2. Too many ARMY friends 3. Hosting this acafan discussion on transcultural fandom. Cutting the bumpers was my first time listening to ON, for example. three-patch.com/2020/11/17/e...

These mushroom dumplings with wilted napa turned out super tasty. Thank you @qsyami.bsky.social! I won't show my dumplings because the wrappers were a bit too dry to fold pretty, but the batch in my freezer will be great for soup.

imagine how much he missed them

Hee hee refreshed the Horseshoe Crab fic outline finally. 5 chs of co-workers to fake relationship taejoon, shifter rights and politics, whole cast in Jeju, arts fest administration brouhaha, and at least two fateful meetings on a moonlit beach between Namjoon and this friendly not-a-crab crab.

That stage of the re-dying process where i am ready to quit except this is very much not my colour

new chapter (escape velocity) is up !! 🌎 27.5k total 🌎 the prison break continues 🌎 only a few minor roadblocks, right?....right??

i want to read some fanfic. i have updates in my inbox. If only my mind were around to facilitate.
