WIP Wednesday

This is a WIP for @Namkookfest ~ Namkook *Namjoon + Jungkook Autumn fest* Due later this month This is a conversation between Yoongi and Namjoon... ----- “Ew, gross on a lot of levels. If I’m not allowed to discuss Seokjin’s shoulders or things I want to do to him then you for sure are not allowed to talk about the baby of the group in that manner. Is he even legal yet?” Namjoon sighed at Yoongi before he dropped his head on the table. “What is wrong with us? How did we both end up with beautiful roommates that only see us as roommates? And yes old man Jungkook is definitely legal.” Yoongi shrugged before taking a sip from his bottle of beer. “Probably because neither of us will ever act on what we are feeling.Also just because he’s legal doesn’t make it okay.” Namjoon groaned and shook his head on the table, “no. I do not accept that.” He sat up abruptly. “I am going to change my situation. And grow up it's a three years difference, old man. THREE YEARS.” He received a snort a

September Chapter Fic - Chapter 1

They had flown in the night before to a US military base someplace in Colorado. The group was told little to nothing other than it would be an expedition with the US heading it up to another galaxy. They were only allowed one personal item and to make plans that they might not return. The seven Korean men knew it was a great honor that their government had chosen them. Yet, the nerves were noticeable by the three military personnel. Lieutenant Major Jeon Junkook was more than aware of the nerves the four scientists and medical personnel were feeling. He remembered the first time he did a mission and how scared he was. “We will be there soon. Once there we will rest and tomorrow we help the other teams gather equipment before we head out.” He watched the head scientist nod his head quickly before looking away. “Right. Okay then.” When Jungkook looked at Major Jung Hoseok and Lieutenant Park Jimin he could see them both smirking at their leader’s attempt to set everyone at ease. I

So I started a new thing

Recently I decided to do something different with my life. I woke up and I just didn't have a hobby or anything fun to do so I thought well change that. Since I read so much fanfic I thought why don't I try to write it.... And man when I jumped... boy did I jump in with both feet. I signed up for writing fics, I enlisted my own brain power, I made MOODBOARDS ( WHAAAAAAA ), and then I finally realized quickly that it is a lot harder than I originally planned or thought. So, now after a long and tiring day at work I come home and write my fanfic of the guys and their relationships. Sometimes I do the ships that we have discussed in other post and sometimes I pull out a Y/N moment but name them, Turns out that means it's more of an original character .LABELS ARE HARD TO FIGURE OUT... It has been challenging and weirdly rewarding. When I first started I assumed EVERYONE would want to read my fanfic because I did but quickly realized that no one wants to read it. Then I went ba

BTS has theories

The first thing I noticed in this fandom was the theories. Seriously, no joke, when I started in this fandom I would see flashes of things on twitter stating I bet the reason *insert BTS member* isn't looking this way is due to *insert theory* Most of the time I just blew it off I mean let's be honest I had no idea what was happening. Then I stumbled across this Can I just say How is that even possible? Who figured this out? How did you even put together all of these thoughts? Most of the time when I was watching videos it was purely to catch up. I mean after all I didn't become an army until 12/2008 so I was a little behind. However, combining music videos, web toons (which I still have no idea how and why those exist nor have I ever watched one) , reading the books and then coming up with a timeline was just mind boggling. I mean it makes sense and I think I have wrapped my head around it but then something else pops up (AKA a new music vide o) and I

Writing Process

My writing process... while I don't feel is unique it is unique to me and has taken me many years to feel comfortable with. I have talked about it in the past regarding outlining and whether it is better to outline or not. And yes there are times I do an outline and while I don't normally start with an outline I do usually end up with one. Let me explain. Usually, I pick a fest I want to do or a prompt. From there I stew on it for a while to determine which pair I want to use or what main character I want to focus on. Then I just start writing the idea that came from the prompt. For example, if I have picked a prompt it is because I really like it or already have an idea of what I want to do with it. So let's say I picked a Taejin professional cuddler prompt. I usually have an idea of what I want to do with it. Like I know I want Tae to work for a newspaper and he is being forced to write an article about a professional cuddler. The article is focusing on are they scamm

7 is here!!! AKA Map of the Soul 7 by BTS

So you're girl ordered all 4 albums after ordering 1 random from Amazon. Then I had a freak out moment when the concept photos were released because DAMN I really wanted version 2 with the dark angel looking concepts. Next thing I know I had to own them all just in case. Turns out that the 4 set I ordered still hasn't even shipped the day after release. Meanwhile Amazon didn't play and sent me my random album the day of release. And it turns out your girl got version 2 as her random ALBUM the fates sometimes like me. I swear this was to make up for the crap year 2020 has turned into already. Anyway... I digress. You would have thought this was the holy grail the way I stared at it all day at work. Touched it opened and closed it. Squeed with anticipation of being able to fully enjoy after work. (don't get me wrong I streamed the album all day) but to be able to play with everything in there was just too much to process. So the card I got was all 7 and I am no

Fan Fic a journey

My journey into the world of fanfic is an interesting one. I started reading fanfic when I was really into Stargate Atlantis (not sure if you remember that show) it was a spin off of Stargate SG-1 which was a spin off of the movie Stargate. Any who I had gone down the rabbit hole that I tend to get into when I become obsessed with something and that was it. One of my twitter friends had a bunch of stargate fanfic suggestions she posted regularly on her twitter and I thought to myself HOLY CRAP what is that. Turns out there is some fantastic fanfic and some really really horrible ones. So I got off the train and went on to another obsession. Then poof and magically (cause they are totally different) I got sucked down into the rabbit hole known as BTS and I wanted to consume everything they had attached to their names. This included their albums, music videos, dance videos, get to know them videos, fan made videos, and then slowly I descended into the mad world of fanfiction agai

Album Review ~ You Never Walk Alone

This is a repackage of Wings and honestly has all of the same songs plus 4 new ones. I will only be reviewing those four songs on this review if you want to see the other songs check out the Album review of Wings here... Fun Album Facts This album was released February 13, 2017 This was their first album to go platinum (WHOOT!) This album had 2 versions left and right and your girl got the left one... and might end up with the right cause that's a photo shoot I might have to have... Songs: 15. Spring Day This is another one of those videos where I sat back and went huh I don't get it I really really want to get it but I just don't get it. That being said I love the song it's another soft song that you want to think is a love song but in the long run after seeing the English lyric's you quickly realize it's not then you move on with you're life. 16. Not Today Now this song is a song I love to play when I think that I am going to work ou

Rant ... Prepare yourself

Kink and Kink shaming The world of fanfiction has opened your girl’s eyes to some kinks and boy howdy are there a lot of kinks out there. Also, what I have found no matter what fandom you are in there is there weird need from fans to kink shame. I know not where this come from as a reader (If you read the labels) or as you are reading you can always do this weird thing called stop reading or go back. Yet for some reason readers for some reason feel the need to shame the writer for a) writing what they want when then do it for free or b) shame others for reading something like this. I find that unfortunate as no one is forcing you to read. Now I will admit there have been times in my numerous fanfic reading moments when I have stumbled onto something and started reading only to drop my phone and walk away to come back and either have to decide do I want to finish this to see what is going to happen or do I want to walk away from this. Somet

Title : Fall For Me Author : thehazeleyedgirl can be found on twitter at @thehazeleyed Main Pairing : Jimin and Jungkook AKA Jikook Chapters : 5 Words : 25,871 Read In : March 2020 Challenge : none Smut Level : I know there is smut I know there is but honestly the story was so engaging that I can’t remember that part over the storyline. Author's Summary: “ What have you done?” Jimin whispered, his eyes fixated on the ground before he lifted them up to look directly at Jungkook. He was crying, tears streaking down his cheeks. “What have you done, Jungkook?” “I told you not to fuck with a Demon, Jimin. I warned you. It’s too late now.” “You don’t get it,” Jimin was hiccuping, barely able to speak. “I can’t go home now. They’ll cut off my wings.” “Precisely.” My Thoughts: Okay let me catch my thoughts on this real quick and I know that I read this back and March and still just now in May reviewing it but DAMN I had to share this with the
