just like my brain, this account is 99% bts: the music, the words, and the hand-holding. ot7. she/her. 30s. fil-am. I read & write #btsfics, and rpf is clearly fictional. 🔞

a photo of a piece of notebook paper with a very spare drawing of seven geese in flight and a stick figure watching beneath them, with the words "first line of wild geese, by pausethestars" over it, and underneath it, the first line from the advertised fic: "Before the world went to fictional wolf shit, before he was forced into caring what alphas and omegas and ruts and heats were, before there were even rumors about people getting sick and then getting weirdly horny, Jimin went on a walk with Namjoon."

I'm forgiving myself for not finishing/posting the ot7 wip before festa, which was my secret Final Goal. But my ot7 feels (and I figure other people's too) aren't going to decrease any in the next few months; the opposite's more likely 💜

Available time & brain space though...a different story
a photo of a small chihuahua-mix puppy with brown and white soft fur. he's standing beside a small basket that's clearly in the middle of being emptied of all its various dog toys--rubber squeaky toys, balls, various plush toys. the contrast of this teeny tiny bit of uncontained mess with the background he's standing beside (the human toddler's playpen, which is also a slight mess of toys/books/etc. but at least is CONTAINED) is kind of amusing. a photograph of a small brown/white chihuahua-mix puppy sleeping on a tile floor, looking very comfortable and very angelic. he is not an angel, even metaphorically, but he is very sweet even when he's a chaos monster. but for now: he's sleeping, angelically.

Checking in to say hi. Doing okay (definition of "okay" adjusted for US-2025). Just busy. We acquired a puppy.

since the word of the day is "poly," here's my #WIPwednesday
a screenshot from a scrivener document, with the following text: Jimin's tension eased. He took a deep breath and nodded. "Me too. I know it can't last forever, but for now, it's what I want." And that was the truth, or at least Jimin's truth, about the arrangement. They called it by a lot of names, actually. Arrangement. Agreement. Relationship. Jimin personally hated the word "polycule" and had successfully banned its usage. His actual preference was thinking of it as just them being them: that being in love and also sleeping together, in whatever configurations, was just a natural and easy extension of the love and non-sexual, non-romantic relationship they'd already worked so hard to build between the seven of them. The fact was that their lives made it uniquely complicated to maintain—to enjoy, to protect—outside relationships. Maybe Jimin was just an old-fashioned hopeless romantic, but asking someone to sign an NDA before proceeding past flirting was excruciating. Worse than going to the dentist, honestly. So he'd built his romantic and sexual life so that he didn't have to do that.

it's been like a week now, but I'm still mulling over how a dumb joke about mario mustaches I wrote a couple years ago manifested into the world but with a different seok than I would've thought! (obvs this is because hobi's thirst trap was targetting jin)
A screencapture of text: "I—" Namjoon turned another page to find a flyer for a meeting of Seokjin's Super Mario Bros. novelization book club. The first listed discussion question was "Please rate, on a scale of 1-10, my projected handsomeness if I had a mustache like Mario and Luigi." Namjoon smiled. He'd be worlds and worlds away by the date of the meeting. Good luck to Yoongi and Hoseok, attempting to moderate that.

I am fond.
BTS Jin is standing near the bottom of a flight of stairs. He's dressed in a black leather jacket, white dress shirt with emphasized sleeves, and then the piece de resistance: precisely creased black trousers with nice crisp points and lines emphasizing the length of his legs. Our perspective from the bottom of the stairs makes it seem as if he's mostly made of legs. Perhaps he is.
