pssft. sterek was the most obvious case of queerbait in the 2010s. shipped it or not mtv and jeff davis used the ship and the question of stiles’s sexuality as a marketing tool. more than once. which is what queerbait is.

So I am learning some machine learning on Matlab, which the course is basically some codes used to do some stuff (so sorry for terrible vocabulary). I don't really know how to take notes of this or should I do it in first place? I am also doing another course which is more theoretical and practical and heavier than this.

Minho comes home late to find you sleeping in your towel after a shower…
Word Count: .7k
Genre: Fluff, Suggestive
Warnings: Suggestive/mature content (18+ minors DNI), mentions of thunderstorms.
It was around midnight when Minho finally returned to your shared apartment from a long day at practice. He braves the ongoing storm, jacket over his head to keep him dry, as he rushes to the door. He’s welcomed by darkness as he shuts out the sound of the pouring rain behind him. He reaches for the lamp beside him, dim light making the ‘cat tree’ in the living room visible to him.
He smiles when he sees Soonie & Doongie fast asleep but frowns when he notices that Dori is missing. He coos at the two cats, scratching their heads before heading to the bedroom. He figured you were sleeping also by now, so he opens the door slowly to keep it from creaking, also opting not to turn the lights on. He takes a step closer and the sight before him just about melts his heart.
He can make out your silhouette curled up on top of the blankets, facing away from him as you sleep peacefully on your side. Beside your head was Dori, curled up in a similar position, head nuzzled within your hair. Minho’s cheeks go red when he realizes that you are adorned in only a towel, likely having crashed right after you got out of the shower. It explains why Dori is in here because she loves to lick the water off of your hair after you shower.
With a dreamy sigh, Minho carefully gathers the sleeping cat into his arms before walking back out to the living room. He gently places Dori in her spot on the cat tree. He kisses her head before going back to the bedroom. Closing the door behind him, Minho can’t help but train his eyes on the smooth skin of your exposed back. He doesn’t want to wake you, but you have to get up so you can get dressed for bed so you can sleep properly anyway.
Still, he makes no effort to suppress the smirk on his face as he traces his fingers down your back, stopping to allow his palm to grasp firmly at your hip. Supporting himself with his other hand, he leans down to place a few pecks on your cheek which then turn into nibbles at the shell of your ear. Your skin gets goosebumps at the contact with his breath as you begin to stir awake.
“Hi baby,” Minho greets you as he begins to place kisses on your neck. “Sleepy?”
“Mhm…” You respond, turning to face him. His eyes travel down as your movements cause the towel to unwrap, exposing your bare body to him. The growl at the back of his throat is almost inaudible. He reaches down to cup your face in his hand, letting his thumb graze your cheek.
“You know it’s not safe to shower during a thunderstorm, right?” He teases. You just scoff and wrap your arms around his neck to pull him closer and press your lips to his. He sneaks his around your waist, pulling you up to sit on your knees. He stands at the edge of the bed, hands pressed into the back of your thighs as he continues to feverishly kiss you.
You stay that way for a couple of minutes before you reach for the hem of his shirt to pull it over his head. That’s when he suddenly stops you.
“Baby, I’m still sweaty from practice.” He warns, to which you whine in response.
“Minho, I don’t care. Just please touch me, I need you.” Your desperate voice pulls him back in. He quickly sheds his clothes, pushing you back to lay on the bed.
“You’re right, it’s not like I should shower in this weather anyway,” He crawls on top of you, placing a peck to your lips, “Wouldn’t want to be a hypocrite, would I?” You giggle at his banter, making him smirk. Your legs wrap around his waist as he continues to caress your body with his hands and lips.
The sounds of the rain against the window and your responses to his touches are more than enough to make him ready for a long night.
To say you’ve done 100 episodes of Chan’s Room truly shocks me. It doesn’t feel like it’s been that long, since that first day you showed up on VLive and spoke to us so sweetly and warmly. 100 episodes later, and you’re still doing just that. Week after week, being there for us no matter what… Being kind, warm, funny, friendly, offering advice. I have nothing in my heart but gratitude towards you Bang Chan. Thank you for being the most amazing human ever.
summary. y/n is anxious about her future but worry not! changbin is here!
a/n. this is something i personally struggle a lot with so to anyone who has those concerns as well – we’ll be alright. some people have plans for their future since they are a kid and some need more time to think it through.

"what’s up with that frown?" changbin asked suddenly, causing you to blink.
"what?" you frowned, shifting your gaze onto him. he smirked and shook his head, even though you could see the hints of concern forming on his face.
"what’s on your mind, angel? you seem to read one page for seven minutes now" he pointed at the book you were holding.
you just left out a deep sigh.
"it’s nothing, really" you mumbled and put the book away, shuffling closer to him.
"come on, you know you can tell me. i know you well, y/n and i know for a fact that something is bothering that pretty head of yours" changbin said, opening his arms for you.
you gave in and sat on his lap, hiding your head in the crook of his neck. you felt your boyfriend’s fingers softly drawing circles on your arms.
"it’s hard to… put it into words" you mumbled, grabbing his t-shirt.
"it’s okay. big brains think alike, i’ll get what you mean" he giggled and you couldn’t help but to smile. changbin saw it and let out a small sigh. oh how he hated to see you so sorrowful like this "cmon, tell me"
"i’m… scared of the future, bin. it sounds ridiculous but i really am. all the exams, my work… everything… it all depends from me which path i’m gonna choose and… and i don’t know. all my friends know what they’re gonna to in a few years and i… and i dont" you said, feeling like a huge burden was taken away from you just from saying it out loud.
"first of all, it doesn’t sound ridiculous. second of all, it’s alright. you don’t need to know. future is inconsistent. one day can turn your whole life upside down. maybe you’ll win a lottery or something. that’s not the point…" he giggled and put his hand down. "you don’t need to know right now. if you want we can sit down one day and think it through together, hm?"
"mhm" you nodded, grabbing his hand and straightening his fingers just to trace your own on top of his "but i just fell like a… like a weirdo, honestly. people are already starting their careers and i’m stuck… and i don’t know anything… it’s just so… disappointing"
"you’re not stuck. you’re making progress, don’t forget that. either way, whatever you choose to do i’ll support you and i’ll be extremely proud of you" he said and noticed how a big smile formed on your lips.
you put his hand up and pressed your own against his - palm to palm. his hand was bigger, of course, but it made you chuckle.
"although…" you hummed and looked up at him.
changbin slowly shifted his gaze from your hand to your face, encouraging you to speak with his eyes.
"…i know for sure i want to be with you" you grinned.
he thought his heart was going to jump out from his chest.
"i love you" he breathed out and pressed a soft kiss onto your lips. when he leaned back, he put a strand of your hair behind your ear "now, let’s stop bothering your pretty head with that. wanna watch a movie?"
coz braem's finished reading the golden compass and is rather impressed.
notes:
— based on 'his dark materials' by phillip pullman
— somewhat based on skzoo or their general (?) impression so it's not exactly soul-accurate. but it's for fun anyway so, enjoy!!
bang chan - grey wolf
kpop leader's dæmons either are intimidating or elegant and graceful
she is intimidating. and graceful. and pretty.
yet in truth, very loving, like channie!!
chills on the sofa during chan's room, and aggressively nuzzles chan when he gets fuzzy and giggly thinking about the kids or stays
pounces on the kids' dæmons at the same time chan's cuddling or teasing them (or hoists them up his shoulder, whichever)
but would licks and curls about them coz wolves are nurturing
growls at hate comments; chan would stare after dodging them "casually" and she'd stare back pointedly
[btw i really like this picture combo, rather proud of maself]
lee know - leopard cat
(gently) paws/slaps the other dæmons when minho can only stare and be done with the kids
i thought about recent fansigns and how she'd give such big loving soft eyes to the fans behind the glass separator
climbs on minho's back, then settles on his shoulder
when the kids ask for help, minho's tsundere self would be refusing it all and being reluctant
but she'd already be sniffing about the dæmons or any object concerning the problem and just wait for minho to check himself
sits on top of cabinets while minho cooks
and paws his cheek when he sleeps lol
changbin - black leopard
or more commonly known as black panther except the black is actually melanization!
someone in twitter said this i think, but like yeah, with bin's powerful gaze—why not black panther?
the panther forms came out when he starts to learn raps, the more powerful and confident he came to be with his skills as a trainee
and the biggest among the eight dæmons, even more than chan's wolf. bin's very proud of her.
cos then she can give big protective warm cuddles! you bet she let the other's dæmons just pile on him
closed, contented eyes as bin pats her or when bin himself is just pleased at himself and happy and giggly
NO BUT IMAGINE THEM WALKING TO SMTM—
hyunjin - ermine
or more commonly known as stoat! ermine is when their coat get white in the winter
would curl around his neck, and make the cutest selfie combo
zooms up hyunnie's long ass leg to do that
but that would muss up hyunjin's long hair as well so...
she'd sneeze, and hyunjin would laugh
they paint together! paw prints!!
would stand on its hind legs when hyunjin's confused
shrieks a little when hyunjin's (dramatically) surprised but would immediately nuzzle his prone/shocked form
han - siberian flying squirrel
THIS TINY WHITE FLOOF
WITH BIG EYES
IMAGINE 3RACHA ASSEMBLING AND THIS FLOOF IS JUST THERE BETWEEN A WOLF AND A BLACK LEOPARD
dives in between jisung's harnesses and the odd cuts in his stage costumes
or his pockets!
hangs upon his collar, everytime—easier access to nuzzle jisung's cheek and comfort him
the mirroring confusion look in their eyes at times
glides out to the other dæmons' head when they're cuddling or han's teasing everyone
felix - american yellow warbler
happy cheerful little twitters!
especially when yongbok's cuddling the members
then would settle on other dæmons head for some while
sits on felix's head usually—likes to perch on heads!
flies in a flutter or bounces about when he's excited
pecks the other dæmon's head when he's annoyed
but it's also a form of affection
alongside flying around the others while chirping nonstop
seungmin - golden retriever
chases everybody around when seungmin's in a mischievous mood
stares and wags it's tongue
and barks after seungmin says "dda!"
even more when seung makes a mischievous statement and everybody lol-ed
otherwise a good, happy boy
especially in public events—the press just coos over them (unaware of the seungmin 'main maniac' agenda...)
would just lick seungmin's face all of a sudden and make him laugh
i.n - fennec fox
still shifts when he debuts, up to two years later
the hyungs got dramatic when she obtained her final shape
but jeongin is somewhat relieved and reflects a lot about maturity (this maknae...)
zooms about when jeongin's excited
that jackson wang meme where he says "cute" with a flat face? yeah.. that's the mood here.
always on jeongin's lap—interviews, fansigns, during makeup in the waiting room
rather quiet—but will definitely shrieks and barks when the hyungs are tackling and cuddling jeongin
themes: hints at reincarnation, slight angst, reader jumps off of a building but doesn’t die dw
Glimpses of him.
That was the only thing you’ve had to go on for months. There were many nights you would awake in a cold sweat, gasping for breath as you tried to recall the images that plagued your mind during your sleep. Your ribs expanded painfully with the air you breathed in, face wet with tears you hadn’t even realized were there until you felt them drop off your chin.
He was gone the minute you had opened your eyes. The first few months you didn’t get it. The same image—the same scene, same eyes on an endless loop night after night for months on end. At first the face was blurry and the only features you were able to make out were his eyes. Those deep red eyes that you had fell for over and over again. But each night was the same, you watched as the warmth and love they held change abruptly into a desperate and deep sadness; a sadness that remained deeply imbedded in you even as you regained consciousness.
For months you were left in a state of confusion. You had no answers for the things—the man you were seeing in your sleep. Occasionally, you would see flashes of him, the sound of his laughter, the image of his curly hair rustling with the wind, the feeling of his naked skin against yours. Each day, the pain in your heart grew unbearable.
i want to be the mary shelley, why women kill, black eyeliner, "she would've made such a lovely bride what a shame she's fucked in the head", oscar wilde, jekyll and hyde, makeup running, "i love you ain't that the worst thing you ever heard / he looks up grinning like the devil", the picture of dorian gray, edgar allan poe, frankenstein, halloween, the 1800s, "beauty is terror. whatever we call beautiful, we quiver before it.", billie eilish, doc martens, the bell jar, meave wiley, "nothing ever ends poetically. it ends and we turn it into poetry. all that blood was never once beautiful. it was just red.", dark red lipstick, sylvia plath, carrying your late husband's heart around, black cats, type of girl, but i'm little and insecure.
them finding you asleep with their skzoo plushie ♡
a/n. have a nice day/night!! :D
˚₊· ͟͟͞͞➳❥ bang chan — he told you not to wait up for him if he’s not back home by 10pm. you both knew you’re gonna stay up anyway. but when chan came back from the studio and heard soft sound of your snoring and favourite tv show playing in the background from the living room, he knew you didn’t manage to stay up this time. he turned off the tv and came up to your sleeping silhouette when his eyes met wolf chan tightly hugged to your chest. his heart skipped a couple of beats and smile creeped up on his face (how are you so cute?! how is that possible?!!). chan pecked a kiss on your forehead and carefully moved you to the bed, looking out for the plushie not to fall out from your embrace. shortly after that he laid down next to you and quickly fell asleep too.
˚₊· ͟͟͞͞➳❥ changbin — changbin returned home after long day at gym. he frowned at the painfully dull sound of silence. he saw the dinner you prepared but you were gone. at first he panicked a bit but then he heard a shuffle coming from bedroom. after he stepped inside and saw you, peacfully sleeping, a grin creeped on his lips. but when he saw dwaekki trapped in your embrace, his grin widened. he took a picture and send it to the boys bragging about how cute you are.
˚₊· ͟͟͞͞➳❥ lee know — it was a long, exhausting day for him. he just wanted to plop down and fall asleep in your arms. so when he found you already asleep, he felt a bit dissapointed. but then he noticed leebit tugged along with you, being held close to your chest. this adorable sight made all of his stress and annoyance wash away, replaced by a growing feeling of overwhelming cuteness. lee know laid next to you, placing a soft kiss on your nose and fell asleep, soft smile on his face.
˚₊· ͟͟͞͞➳❥ felix — felix got an urgent call in the middle of your movie marathon. he apologised and promised he'll be back soon. hour, two, two and a half... turned into four. he almost broke down the door and knocked a vase over in a rush to check if you're not mad at him (spoiler alert: you weren't) but instead he found you asleep. in the same position you were, laptop almost falling from the bed but... you had bbokari squeezed between your shoulder and your cheek. felix instantly melted at that sight! he moved the laptop to a safe place and propped you into a laying position so your back wouldn't hurt when you wake up and then he fell asleep next to you, with a soft smile one his lips.
˚₊· ͟͟͞͞➳❥ han — han couldn't be more excited to meet with you tonight. a promised k-drama marathon that we waited for so long!! but when entered your place, his smile was replaced by a puzzled expresson. "aich, y/n, you're not asleep, are you?" was first what left his mouth. he was about to add something more but his mind went blank when he saw you - indeed - asleep on the couch, almost falling from it. he dropped his things to tug you in safely and prevent from meeting the floor. but then something dropped on the floor. he took a glance and let put a giggle when he saw it was quokka. "should have told me you just wanted to cuddle" han hummed and soflty pinched your cheek, placing quokka back between your arms.
˚₊· ͟͟͞͞➳❥ hyunjin — hyunjin huffed when he saw you asleep. you promised you'd wait for him but well. he was about to wake you up just out of spite when he noticed something small trapped between your arms. his brows narrowed when he realised its jiiret. his hand flew over to dramatically grab his heart. now, now... you look so adorable, holding the plushie so close!! he isn't going to wake you up... but just this once!!
˚₊· ͟͟͞͞➳❥ seungmin — "Y/N!!!" (how this did not wake you up-?). radio silence. you were supposed to meet him and go on a date you planned for ages but you didn't show up. seungmin was worried so when on top of that you didn't pick up, he decided to chek up on you. his worry was replaced by... well, even bigger worry when he saw you asleep by your desk. papers, pens, books... and your head resting on something beige. he came up and saw it was puppym. "go to bed at least, dumbass" he murmured, softly poking your arm. he helped you get to the bed without tripping over anything and then handed you puppym with a sly smirk. he won't let you forget about it.
˚₊· ͟͟͞͞➳❥ i.n — talking on facetime, even when i. n was in the same city was someting normal for you. this night he was working late and when you were already laying in bed, he called you. while giggling about lee know, he and others entered the room i. n was hiding in. he had to talk about something with them , so he muted himself. and as much as you tried to stay awake, your eyes felt too heavy. you grabbed foxi.ny pressing it tightly to your chest. in no time you fell asleep and i. n realised when he didn't see you moving. chan peeked over his shoulder and started giggling. when they teased i. n about being in love, he just couldn't resist to take a screen shot!! his poor heart was about to explode from overwhelming cuteness!!
he's definitely the type to pin you up against a wall in the dressing rooms while everyone's rehearsing, pressing kisses to the column of your neck, hands gently trailing up your shirt and caressing your warm skin as he mumbles in you ear about how badly he wants to fuck you, feel you deep and feel you clench around him. how badly he misses being buried so deep inside you, how much he misses hearing your whines and moans as he stretches you out with his cock. his knee is slotted between your legs, hands gently guiding you to grind against the fabric of his pants, smirking over how easily you fall pliant in his hands; almost like putty. pressing kisses to the shell of your ear, as he purrs lowly. "such a good girl, you're so wet just from a little dirty talk? wonder if i can make you cum from just using my thigh."
