just some important things to note since yoongi will be releasing his mixtape soon and it is best to clear matters up now before any kind of stuff occurs.

– not everyone will like it, that is guaranteed, but please do not voice such thoughts in direct / tagged tweets to bts or on their soundcloud. yoongi has been working on this for three years to refine it to perfection, he has spent tireless nights awake, hours upon hours of his time to exhibit his one true passion to us. three fucking years because he wanted it at the absolute best. he sat through everyone saying but when will yoongi drop his mixtape and I cannot imagine how stressing such words would have been for him, thinking that he needs to get it out sooner for the fans because that is just the kind of guy he is. now that it is finally coming, please do not throw it back in his face if it is not up to the standard you were expecting after such a long wait.

– this leads me to the fact that there is a post circulating that says his mixtape will ‘contain frank and straightforward stories of yoongi unlike the song his group produces.’ this is all the more reason to not go spreading negativity on his music video / wherever he uploads the mixtape. yes, he is an artist and is certainly used to critique and negative comments, that is basically the brunt of what comes with being any kind of artist in the industry, but please keep in mind that this mixtape is going to be quite literally a piece of yoongi. it will include a lot of personal content about his life and everyone knows how yoongi is not necessarily an open person. he is going to be displaying a raw truth, a side of him that he has kept masked. yes, have your opinion, but please do not blatantly disrespect him because, by the looks of it, a lot of the content in the mixtape will revolve around his own life and experiences.

– please do expect there to be some tracks on the mix that sound familiar. mixtapes heavily consist of samples used from other artists and songs (for eg. joke by namjoon uses the samples that run the jewels made for their song oh my darling) this is completely and entirely legal as long as the mixtape is not advertised for commercial purposes and the creator of the mixtape earns no financial benefit. that is also why namjoon and yoongi will not be able to perform the songs using such samples from their mixtapes at their own group concerts. it is super important to know this before you go claiming plagiarism on their content! everything is completely okay as long the mixtape is free – and no the original artist does not have to be credited, although it is respectful to do so.

 – and so I will end it with the point that yoongi has done all of this for free. he is not gaining any profit, he is not being paid, he is solely doing this to showcase his talent as an individual rapper, producer, and artist without the label of being an idol. three years he has spent on this, and although that sounds like a small number, it is a very long time to be working on something that you are simply creating for non-financial purposes. when you listen to every song on the mixtape, when you watch the music video, please remember that. all of this hard work that he has done on top of three years worth of promotions and creating content with bts was only to show us his potential, to display his capabilities. for free.

like I said, everyone will have their own opinion, some will not enjoy the mixtape whereas I am positive a lot more will absolutely adore it. but please, if you do not enjoy it, think about where you voice your opinions and how you word them because bts do check their social media, and from what I remember, yoongi is the kind of person that avidly checks it for feedback on his work. indeed, the chances of him seeing your comment are slim, but please, still keep it in mind that he may possibly stumble upon it.

anyway! I am super duper proud of him and I admire him and his work ethic around his idol schedules so greatly. I hope you are all ready to have your asses lit on fire by the proclaimed rap god min yoongi. it was nice knowing you all.

edit: please also remember that it is completely okay for people to dislike the mixtape. if they are stating such a thing on their own private blog or untagged on twitter or anywhere that bts will not potentially see it, then that is honestly fine. so basically – do not bully somebody because they say ‘to be honest, I am not really feeling it’ or ‘I preferred namjoon’s mixtape / hoseok’s 1verse much more.’ people are allowed their own opinion, it is just a matter of where it is posted and in what manner it is posted.

let us make this a positive and encouraging time for yoongi, since he deserves the absolute best after all of his hard work.

BTS BON VOYAGE

just watched ep 1 for the second time! <3333

bringing back the memories of my own trips with my friends, doing ridiculous things and being total idiots overseas. im pretty sure i screwed up laundry and the shower tap and other electronic stuff many many times (can never get the right water temperature!!!). probably confused many locals and did many embarrassing touristy things.

so great to see the boys having so much fun tho!! having their trip recorded down in video is great not just for the fans, but for them as well if they look back at this trip in the future ;) 

THEY MAKE ME WANNA GO ON A TRIP TOO!

YOONMIN fanfiction (Yoongi + Jimin; BTS)

☆ fave ♡ fluff ▼ angst ✿ sexual content 

I’ll give you the sun (inkingbrushes)  ☆ ♡ ▼ ✿ Jimin takes the sun with him when he leaves Yoongi on a snowy Thursday morning. 21.475k

we’re just lost stars (aegyofairy)  ☆ ♡ ▼ It’s hard growing up, seeing your imperfections and having to face that you’re in the spotlight 24/7, for Jimin it’s even harder when you’re falling in love with the only person who makes you feel perfect. Someone that probably just sees you as a kid anyways.(or, that one where Jimin grows up, Yoongi takes notice, and basically all of bangtan ship yoonmin).  8.667k 

The 100-Day Love Challenge ☆ ♡ ▼ (jeosheo) For a variety show challenge, Jimin must tell Yoongi every day for 100 days that he loves him. Let’s get this shit started. 19.224k

Cocoa Puffs (madigraye)  ☆ ♡  Somewhere between fake basketball matches and even faker marriages, Park Jimin learns that camp is for fun, and summer is for butterflies. 39.705k

objects in motion (mediest)  ♡ Jimin gets a little handsy (on accident!) (he’s not a pervert!). 2.355k

Strawberry Lube (minyoongz)  ☆ ♡ ▼ ✿  Yoongi remembers little to nothing of their crazy drunken night out. But of two things he’s absolutely sure, one: he’s not gay, two: he just slept with Park Jimin. 82.791k

Out of My System (xxdevilishxx)  ♡ ▼ ✿ Yoongi likes one night stands and he understands how they work. What he doesn’t understand, however, is how he ended up in bed with a probably-not-legal kid crying in his arms about his broken heart, because he’s pretty sure (and correct him if he’s wrong) that a babysitting job was not what he was looking for when he went to the opening of his friend’s new club.  101.711k

[arihanagrande]

Um. I've always wanted to read a yoonmin where Yoongi is always teasing Jimin, but likes him and Jimin likes him like that too and all of the other members are really just waiting for Yoongi to man-up and ask Jimin on a date. Do you know of any fics like this?

i can think of a few: (not all of them have both pining + nicknames im sorry)- wash away my loneliness by melecs- you don’t have to say i love you (to say i love you) by coconutbutter- give love by ddugeun- out of my system by xxdevilishxx- leave before the lights come on by jungtaeh- ringa linga by jeosheo- baby, baby, you’re a caramel macchiato by chyelo

bts fic rec

my latest obsession with bts meaning trawling through the bts tag on AO3 and a list of fics stored in my head.

bts fic recs:

1. Family by justhere

OT7

Summary

Namjoon and his hybrid Jin come across another dog hybrid named Jimin on the street in poor condition and decide to take it home with them. The two already live with two other people and their own hybrids, and it's overwhelming to the injured dog who they soon learn was bred for dogfighting and knows nothing else.

It proves to be a challenge for everyone, but Jin is more than determined to show the new addition to their family what love is and how to return it.

so eagerly waiting the next update. jiminnie here breaks my heart.. 

2. The Mark of an Educated Mind by bazooka

Kim Namjoon | Rap Monster/Kim Seokjin | Jin

Summary

At three o'clock in the morning after he'd been working for ten hours straight and everything he touched came out wrong and all his words were stilted and clumsy and all his music was rough and tangled... for some ungodly reason Kim Namjoon opened up a new browser window, typed bangtan sonyeondan fan fiction into the search bar, and then (god) hit enter.

metafiction on rm reading namjin fics. 

3. Rap Monster by Akatsukisabang

Kim Namjoon | Rap Monster/Min Yoongi | Suga

Summary

Yoongi is awoken in the middle of the night to find a man passed out on his doorstep, and that's not even the worst of his problems. He has to take care of the guy for a week. Well...at least the guy is cute. Too bad he think his name is "Rap Monster" though...

(Also, Yoongi's neighbor is literally Satan, he seriously wants to murder a handful of hospital workers, and how the hell can anyone say with such innocence that their name is "Rap Monster?")

His life is a walking hell.

Namjoon with amnesia but his destruction skills and aegyo intact. hilarity.

4. Up in the Air by Elemir

Min Yoongi | Suga/Park Jimin

Summary

Yoongi is a Keeper. Jimin thinks so too.

because its yoonmin and HP AU!

5. all you need is love (and pink) by vppa

Kim Namjoon | Rap Monster/Kim Seokjin | Jin

Summary

Most people only have one miniature angel or devil riding on their shoulders to serve as the physical manifestation of their conscience. Poor Namjoon has five, and they're all telling him the same thing: "fucking talk to him god dammit what the fuck is wrong with you"

mini bangtan is the cutest

6. in a sea of people (it's your eyes i drown in) by namgi

Kim Namjoon | Rap Monster/Min Yoongi | Suga

Five times Namjoon notices Yoongi and Jimin's particularly close moments, and five times he tries not be completely, irrationally jealous. He fails miserably.

an occasional dose of namgi~

2. pick me up, buttercup by vppa

- Jeon Jungkook/Kim Taehyung 

AU where your soulmate's first words to you will be tattooed on your wrist when you meet.

7. Soulmate? No, Thanks. by Saniya8

Min Yoongi | Suga/Park Jimin, Jeon Jungkook/Kim Taehyung | V, Kim Namjoon | Rap Monster/Kim Seokjin | Jin

Min Yoongi has been waiting to have his first colour dream since he was 17 because a dream in colour is the dream of your soulmate, whoever they are. In a world where all humans have only black and white dreams the only colour dreams one gets are those of their soulmate, if they have one.  Park Jimin made the worst mistake of his life by getting drunk and driving himself home one day before his 17th birthday. When he wakes up, things have changed drastically, the biggest change being the sexy voice that interrupted his first pleasant dream in a LONG time.

My heart clenched at so many points of this fix… this AU is pretty cool too

8. Save Me, Please by Cadenza_Fire 

- Kim Namjoon | Rap Monster/Kim Seokjin | Jin , Jeon Jungkook & Kim Taehyung | V, Kim Taehyung | V/Park Jimin , Jung Hoseok | J-Hope/Min Yoongi | Suga

Soulmates. Everyone, between the ages of sixteen and eighteen, would have the names of their soulmates appear on their left or right wrist in a light grey ink that turned red when you meet them. 

Jeon Jungkook stood starring down at the black water below him as he stood on the thick cement railing of the bridge. Looking down at his wrists he traced the names Kim Taehyung and Park Jimin, the names of his soulmates who he had yet to meet.“I’m sorry,” he sobbed. “I can’t do it anymore. You both will be better off without me, you don’t need me… I’m nothing…” 

(This story may have possible triggers due to abuse and attempted suicide so please be cautious. You have been warned.)

This is still ongoing and in the early stages, but i love the characterization here and im feeling so overprotective of kookie rn

9. the tone of your hair makes you my soulmate series by bulletproofv 

AUs where your hair changes to your soulmates favorite color when you first first make eye contact.

He’s going to die. He’s going to die of public humiliation in front of everyone, and then he’s going to come back to life and kill his soulmate, because who the fuck draws a dick on their forehead knowing full well that it’ll show up on someone else, too?

- Min Yoongi | Suga/Park Jimin 

Everyone is born with a Soulmate, but not everyone gets to meet their other half in their lifetime. Twenty one year old Park Jimin suspects he will never meet his Soulmate.

Will Jimin develop the deadly condition known as Soul Sickness? And will Yoongi make it in time to save him?

yoongi was such an asshole and jimin was such a cutie my feels exploded and where are these onion-cutting ninjas stop this

how do I explain this giveaway? this used to be a SHINee-biased blog, and the owner a pretty hardcore shawol who would scour the globe for anything remotely SHINee-related.

things have clearly evolved a bit since then, but I still have heaps of random SHINee merchandise lying around. for one, I could make do with a less cluttered living environment, but more importantly,  I’d really rather give all that stuff to someone who would appreciate it more than presently do. thus the birth of this giveaway!
