Relationship Goal #3 - Be with someone who always looks at you like the stars have all aligned in your eyes and the only thing they want to be able to do is kiss you until you’re both breathless ~
Yes, i am 100% a Jikook supporter. My blog is a safe haven for those who love them as well as for those who love OT7. I have zero tolerance for negative asks so if i don't post and answer your ask, most likely it was negative and i don't want to address it and start wars or... Tumblr ate it. Choose your option :) Also, I'm only going to talk about how I view them, not how anyone else should so don't get those panties up in a wad, thanks. Oh and this is gonna be a pretty fcuking long essay so please have your coffee, tea, bubble-tea, wine ready... you have been warned ;)
Shipping has never been my thing and even if i liked a pairing, it was always just platonic. Right off the bat, i liked the VMIN ship. They were just the cutest kids/friends/siblings/soulmates. VMIN became my favorite/first BTS ship - again, it was strictly platonic shipping. Bromance, that cute jazz and i still ship them like that. And besides, who doesn’t?!
One day, after watching a cute VMIN vid on youtube, i forgot to toggle off autoplay and a JiKook vid started playing and i...just... fell and i still haven't managed to get up yet. I tried really hard to just stan them as platonic, like i do VMIN but apparently, JJK is having none of that.
And i really do mean that. JJK was the person who changed my mind on their dynamics - even before the famous G.C.F. video. He is my meme for that whole: You don't choose your ship, it chooses you dictum. After that vid, i got very interested and started re-watching their RUN eps and concert clips and boy oh boy. The amount of staring aka heart-eyes, the way JJK constantly hovers over PJM, the way he's always so attentive to ONLY PJM, the way he always strives to make Jimin laugh...i'm still dumbfounded. I can't remember ever looking at a single man i've ever dated like that or received looks like that back. Because trust me, if someone looked at me with the emotions of their heart spilling out of their eyes the way JJk does PJM, i would never let him go. You know that familiar old saying of one wearing their heart on their sleeves? Well, that is not JJK at all. He is the only person i know who takes it up a notch and wears it in his gaze. And what is subtlety to this boy.
It's almost like this is a drama and i am watching it unfold in real time. We started with the usual one-sided feelings, Jiminie who was so aggressive and open with his affections in chasing around the maknae. I used to just brush those moments off as child's play...but they've become significant in the Jikook relationship. Stepping stones that mired what was inevitable. It's like Jimin grew up and he turned into this beautiful swan that matched his beautiful personality and suddenly, everyone noticed - JJK first. This is where I'm really in awe...Their dynamics started shifting and as Jimin dialed back the public affections, JJK poured it on x10. It almost seemed like the more JJK pushed Jimin for attention, the less PJM gave it and it resulted in JJK not giving a damn what anyone thought except for making PJM aware of his feelings. The hunted is now the hunter ;)
In the beginning, i tried to tell myself, hey, this is all in your imagination, quit trying to see things where they aren't! They're just very fond group members! And as soon as i think that thought, JJK goes ahead and blows it to smithereens. He just won't let me live. Following will be some reasons why it's so damn hard to breathe around these two:
When these two are together, they either sound like they're flirting, look like they're flirting or ARE INDEED FLIRTING. I can't shut up about this. There's this level of intimacy that just dusts the air when these two are standing, sitting, laying next to each other. But you know what's even more marvelous is that that air somehow gets even more intense when they are separated by other members. It's like the members become obstacles they have to overcome to let their love flourish so they amp things up even more lmao. Off the top of my head is the moment recently in their vlive where they were toasting to their AMA performance and Yoongi was in the middle like a barrier but those two...the flirting and giggling and stuttering...I'm sure Yoongs was just like...get me the fcuk away from these lovesick fools. I know i would've been running.
They can be quite fiercely protective of one another. Jimin is affectionate with every member, true, but no one can deny that he's particularly soft for JJK, as proven in a Run ep when he gave the extra food flag to JJK and made his own teammate/soulmate V beg for his lol... There's also BV2 when he tries to win a meal for JJK with the table game, when he offers his bed space to JJK...Jimin is always trying to feed JJK when he loses in games, making sure he's comfortable when they're sleeping, encouraging him to speak up, say whats on his mind, and JJK reciprocates in kind, albeit more quietly; waiting for PJM’s slow butt, defending PJM when others poke fun at him, complimenting him when he's unsure (especially when it's unwarranted), even going as far as defending PJM before anyone can tease him! An example of that is during BV2 when the boys were cooking for one another and Jimin made that dish that tasted like pickled pollack roe. I'm sure JJK didn't want the other's comments to hurt Jimin's feelings (even though it didn't come off that way) so he pepped up with the whole "I love pickled pollack roe" even though no one else cared. Thats the kind of love and devotion JJK shows to PJM - it’s quiet, uplifting, supportive and it is endearing beyond all. And don’t forget...whenever the groups play games, JJK always finds a way to cheer on Jimin, even if they are on opposing teams. Talk about being sweet on someone. I'm actually quite jealous.
Satellite Jeon has got to be my most favorite JJK. I've, in all honesty, never seen anyone orbit before until Jungkook. He can be at the opposite end of the stage and somehow, come hell or high water, he will make it to park beside Jimin. Like Jimin is his security blanket and he needs that source of comfort and warmth. I am just overly fond of that one vlive for Hobi's birthday when freaking JJK worked his away behind the camera to stand right behind PJM. As if that wasn't enough, he had to place his hands on PJM's shoulders to make it be known that "hey, I'm right here behind you." We see you, Jeon, trust me, we do. It's really endearing to watch Jimin's personal hoverboard in action. In interviews, during speeches...there are so many circumstances where he either moves to stand closer to Jimin or moves to stand where he can see Jimin more clearly and i haven't seen him do that with others. It's like Jimin is a magnet for his eyes. Love songs always quote: I only have eyes for you. And Jungkook proves that quote true.
G.C.F Tokyo broke me out of my musings of them being just friends permanently. Who does this?! Who goes out of their way to cart around a huge camera all day and take videos/photos of someone else on a vacation? Either a photographer who is working or a LOVER. Obviously JJK’s profession is not that of a photographer so...yeah. Listen, I love my siblings/friends but you’ll never catch me lugging that around while im on vacation, no way. After i watched that video, i sat in silence for a good long time. Can you imagine the planning that goes on behind something like this? It’s no overnight thought-process. Neither is the piecing together of it. The amount of time, dedication, love, affection JJK put into this video is heartwarming. Seeing PJM the way JJK sees him is breathtaking. While sitting there in the afterglow of that marvelous tribute, i realized that in this world, all i ever want is for someone to love me, see me, the way that JJK sees PJM. I want that glow that PJM emitted while frolicking freely with JJK, that happiness that is threatening to burst out of both their chests, that pure, unabashed tenderness for one another.
I’d have expected something like that from PJM, the open, brazen, affectionate little bean. But to have it come from JJK the introvert, shy, always in his own bubble guy... It’s baffling. I’ve always thought JJk was quite a chameleon. There's layers upon layers upon layers with this man. If i were to compare them to food, i would say PJM is decadent mousse in a glass cup where you know and can see the layers and appreciate them thoroughly. JJK is that delicious chocolate cake where you have to cut inside the cake to see how many layers are present. He's an awesome anomaly. And...maybe that is why they fit together so well. What JJK lacks, PJM makes up for and vice versa. Jimin is all things dainty and Jungkook is all things masculine. It's a perfect fit.
None of us know them personally. We can only ship from afar so please ship respectfully.

damn. i didn’t think it was this long. If you got through this, kudos to you, my friend :)
U sound like u really know bts have u been a fan a long time?
thank you. i've been a fan since pre-debut. I remember watching their vlogs and saying to myself "i hope they succeed, they are really sweet boys." And look where we are now. The world is at their feet and they still remain the most humble boys, ever. Sometimes i think of their success now and remember the times we (old ARMYs) voted til our fingers almost fell off during INU for their first win and it really...really is heartwarming. Thank you for loving our boys.
