âHANBIN BAEK // GRAD STUDENT // PHILOSOPHY + BIO CHEMISTRY
international student milking his student visa for as long as possible to stay away from his family
ends donât need to justify means; the means just say what kind of person you are and he doesnât care if his make him a bad one
consider the vibes of a prince cast away from his castle and making a new one just to put the crown back on his head
doesnât believe he wants for anything, but desires things that others want just to see if he can get them first
exclusively picks the side in philosophy debates that makes everyone angry at him
generally pretty good at reading desires and catering to them, and doesnât fail to use it to his advantage for whatever it may be
âmight fuck around and get a doctorate, idkâ
câs get biochemistry degrees also his parents canât complain to him about what his transcript looks like on paper
you do not think heâs a good person
he does not think heâs a good person
idle wealth births particular kinds of sinners
what do you think about Professor Hardingâs death?
Tragic, of course. Never had a class with him though, so I wouldnât be able to give any potential motives. By the way, I have alibis for most parts of that weekâoh, you arenât accusing me? Well hopefully they find who did it then. Open murder cases are troubling, arenât they? I donât really fear for my safety though; if someone has a grudge theyâre welcomed to try.
favorite piece of gothic horror or dark academia: im always like... a bich for poe but pit and the pendulum hits a bit different for me
favorite spooky movie/show:Â uhhhh i really like the ring and train of busan as far as horror goes, but iâm really a weenie that only thinks i like horror movies until i actually watch them
whatâs your halloween costume: once i walked around my white neighborhood as mikasa ackerman with my step mom
If my graphic has not enticed you.... allow me to throw u my plot idea perhaps
Iâm thinking of making a faerie whoâs... chaotic as the rest of them but! She has a... bad habit of just yeeting off to the faerie realm when the going gets tough, and I imagined a sort of... manic pixie dream girl-esque Vibe except she doesnât help ur character growth she just comes in like a whirlwind all hyped and high energy and then sheâs gone and itâs really none of her business how u end up in the aftermath
Except she comes back! Periodically. Whenever she feels like it, and I liked the idea of maybe ur typical Summer Romance (or any season rly) all secret giggles and private adventures and the world at their fingertips until she dropped them like a hot potato and had the audacity to come back like 6 months after ghosting like yooo hows it hanging??
Her whims and fancies change every 5 minutes and she really does have fun while she has fun, but humans are like hyperfixations and they always happen in bursts. But Summer Romance was probably her longest and while sheâs not obsessed with them anymore, she does still pop in when sheâs in the mortal plane to check up on them and theyâre probably sick of her!!! but still put up with her bc itâs fine they know better than to fall in love twice with a natural disaster
unless
but i am also chill with Platonic Vibes and general trying to care about her when she clearly doesnât return the favor equally (even tho she has her moments!!) and generally just rangling her in to have a lil more human decency :â)))!!! grow an empathy bone pls!! thanks for coming to my ted talk and also graphic design is my passion
We living on the edge w... mobile posts and mobile browser tumblr but may I present my Ideas in shitpost form:
ADRIEN FAUCHER / 21 / CHANGELING u ever just.... swap in a changeling for fun and then come back to find out u lost him??? his original family faced difficulties and broke apart, and Adrien ended up being taken in by a wealthy French family who gave him a whole new name, new life, new identityâa bit like losing himself when he never really ever found himself, and so he's never learned he's a changeling. A bit like slapping a cup over a quarter but losing the quarter and you're the magician. Meanwhile Adrien is dabbling in a lab rats esque Thing with all the bare faced curiosity he can manage, and is fascinated by both the domestic and the macabre he finds without knowing he's One Of Them. Maybe he'll find out if he lets a vampire chomp on him for the Experience and nearly dies for it, as a treat
More to come... ruminating on a Howl inspired faerie who flits in and out of the faerie realm breaking rules and hearts but not on purposeâsome things just happen: you're not paying attention and u run a red light, next thing u know you forgot you kissed one girl yesterday and have a new boy today and no one is happy so it's time to yeet back home and come back later when you're bored and they're old
Also sitting on a potentially blood cursed witch who just might make the desert feel cold with how strictly lawful and objective he tries so hard to be.
If anything strikes u or u just wanna chat!! Catch me at jinglebell#3216
Name: lee
Pronouns: they/them
Timezone: gmt+9
Favorite supernatural book/show/film: good omens, supernatural but like the earlier seasons, i know i have more bc this love for supernatural rps didnt come from nowhere but i cant think of any of them !!Â
Favorite tropes: vibing with the lab rats sub plot heavily... talk to me abt supernatural curiosities and graveyard aesthetics, Oh My God They Were Roommates (with a skeleton in the closet), lawful stupid meets chaotic calculating, lovers to enemies to lovers, family dramaTM, and more, as a treat :)
What youâre most looking forward to:Â i was eyeing the changeling info but itâs already out so! the rest of the species info bc i love lore :eyes:

choi xiang // 24 // cortado // itâs funny in a rich manâs world
technically the illegitimate son of a politician // mom got sent away to china and raised xiang there // got hauled back to korea later bc dad got #nervous w elections coming up // worst 6 years of his life // got freedom in exchange for not fucking up his dadâs rep // heâs going though his rebellious punk teen phase late // eyeliner game 2 strong // travels around a lot // his trajectory looks suspiciously identical to one song jaewonâs but whoâs paying attention? // jaded with life from his experience with the upper political elite // trying to find fun again // aka maybe if he follows every impulse heâll find things worth it again // likes showing off his wealth // be his sugar babe even if he might ghost at any second // professional dumbass // gives out his number to everyone // asks for everyoneâs number // he came to australia to witness for himself if kangaroos rly look this terrifying irl // and mb bc a certain song jaewon came hereÂ
needs// locals to show him whatâs lit in australia, sugar babes bc he loves wasting money, fellow dumbasses to introduce him to every dumb way to blow money in melbourne, pals 2 get high with, he rly wants a motorcycle help him achieve the dream, makeup enthusiasts to teach him the Ways of doing wings, also if anyone happens 2 speak hangzhouhua he could use some refreshers pls
catch me not making anything fancy but imagine that one kid in like elementary school thatâs ur best friend but not like ur best friend for life or anything, just casual school friends
then imagine he moves away but actually follows through on keeping contact and asking u abt u day and shit even tho ur miles apart
and then imagine every time he floats to the back of ur mind he randomly messages u with a status update that heâs decided to marry his guitar
daeyeon is that kid and bc he doesnât know how to let go i figure he kinda doggedly kept up long distance contact w a childhood friend and now that theyâre both in melbourne he will absolutely act like theyâve been besties this whole time and that the last time they saw each other in person wasnât like 20 years ago.
AKA daeyeon is prone to making dumb choices w a stupidly sentimental heart and needs someone who knows him enough to tell him âthis is a bad idea dont do this to urselfâ and he wonât listen but the thought matters
just got signed to a record company in Australia bless up / loves music more than his life would kill a man for his guitar / not nearly as emo as this makes him seem but it's a brand / still does gigs at bars because he likes small scenes too / may or may not still have a side job tbd / if u don't hit him up for a party ur dead to him / will kiss and tell and move on rip / a bro that's usually willing to do u a solid tho?? / gets attached and doesnât like letting go / cares too much and kinda hates it / the one who uses the eggplant emoji

His face is associated with some wild Japanese commercials and heâs not necessarily happy about it.
[002] open about their private life
Never. Not even to his friends heâs got an issue with keeping everything inside because u know... he poured his whole heart into someone and then got betrayed so thatâs uhh canceled for him now ://
[003] an advocate for any charities
Tbh.... unless itâs a publicity thing his fam sets up heâs just kinda... doing his thing.... taking photos....Â
[004] involved in a relationship for publicity
Not currently but a relationship thatâs not real sure is about to go public by accident. Itâs a mess.
[005] where they are because of dishonest / shady moves
Hisaya got his big break mostly because of his familyâs name, but otherwise he is a good photographer. Nonetheless he still has privileges and perks over others who donât have the connections he does and he doesnât necessarily mind using them.
WHO DOES YOUR CHARACTER
[006] @ / retweet regularly
Hisaya?? on twitter??? thatâs funnyÂ
[007] mention most in interviews
His siblings or parents usually, since theyâre the most relevant things people ask him about.Â
[008] go to when they need some help
Getting help from others?? in this economy?? Hisaya keeps everything to himself and dies like a man as it eats at him relentlessly.Â
[009] idolize / adore more than life itself
It used to be his girlfriend but that didnât work out too hot so now heâs flying solo and convinced heâs not lonely and is better off alone!! But he canât even say he adores himself because said girlfriend accused him of not showing his emotions so now heâs doing expression exercises in the mirror :///
[010] want to end up with (in their dreams)
Upfront heâll say no one, but secretly he just wants that perfect relationship thatâs wholesome and good and where heâs understood u know.....
WHAT WAS
[011] the first thing they tweeted
One of his siblings probably run a twitter for him and the first thing was probably something like âHello Twitter!â
[012] the first event they got invited to
Uhhh I have no idea but it was when heâd just come to the US and his family introduced their adopted charity case to the public. If I knew more events Iâd be able to give specifics but alas...
[013] the last (non work related) vacation they took
Does holing himself in his apartment count.
[014] the first thing published about them on lounge
Orphan Adopted in the Wake of Devastating Tsunami
plot twist Hisaya wasnât made an orphan from the tsunami, he was already there, but we donât talk about that
[015] the project that made them want to act / write / sing / etc.
Hisaya literally bought a camera and found he was decent at it and with his name, he was able to gain access to a lot of resources to actually pursue it. He thinks he basically fell into his career honestly, but heâs put forth an effort to improve since then.
WHY
[016] do they put up with all of the bs that comes with the business
Honestly he tries to minimize the bs because he canât really avoid it when heâs part of a celeb family, so he does enough that no one will comment on how unimpressive he is, but not so much that heâs getting into the tabloids left and right. Heâs just trying to live his life, basically
[017] did they pursue the career theyâre currently in
Literally just because heâs good at it. Heâd rather be an author, but his plots are too simply and predictable, nothing new or innovative, and heâs bad at taking criticism. Heâs not about to do something stupid like chase his dream even when it means being ripped apart by the public though.
[018] did they choose the media persona they did
Hisaya can do some Survival Pleasantry but his current media personality is Generic Decent Guy. Again, anything that doesnât make him noticeable.Â
[019] do they hate gossip magazines so much
Gossip is just cheap entertainment that comes from breaching privacy. Hisaya is stressed enough trying to stay out of it that he canât find anything appealing about indulging in it. He does have a policy to ignore gossip until he can confirm things himself.
[020] would they ever make a sex tape
If his partner for some reason had that kind of interest, heâd do it because if itâs someone heâs dating he trusts them and also wants to be open to their interests even if it makes him kind of uncomfortable. Heâd at least try it once for their sake. He wouldnât consider that theyâd use it against him in the future.
WHERE
[021] did they hear their first song on the radio
A car.... probably. He doesnât listen to radios that often, but it was probably on the ride back from the airport when he first came to the US.
[022] did they find out theyâd landed their first project
Probably his... house??? Over the phone.
[023] did they go on vacation after their first big project
I donât think Hisaya went on vacation....Â
[024] do they live when they want to get away from it all
Hisaya lives in some apartment away from his familyâs house, and itâs pretty normal/secluded enough in his opinion.
[025] was their first big press conference
Honestly.... I have no idea my guys Hisaya doesnât do press conference nowadays and he was a kid when it was his first one. His parents dragged him along to them to get his face out there.
WAS THEIR FIRST
[026] project embarrassing
If you count his first commercial project, which his parents set up, then yes. Absolutely. His first book was pretty bad too, just because his writingâs not great. His first photoshoot was... okay, relatively.
[027] talk show appearance a wreck
He didnât actually talk his first talk show appearance since he was a kid, so in a way it was a wreck.
[028] public relationship heavily followed
Decently so. He dated one of his models and the photographer dating a model is ripe for gossip. It was fairly well known, but with little drama that the cameras could catch. The breakup was personal and undisclosed to the public. There was a lot of speculations about why though.
[029] fan encounter awkward / nice / sweet / etc.
Hisaya was more embarrassed than the fan because he didnât know he had fans. It was pretty awkward, but it wasnât a bad experience overall.
[030] relationship (while famous) talked about at all
Oh yes definitely, though he took lengths to make sure it wasnât torn to pieces by gossip.
WILL
[031] they ever open any sort of business
Probably not. Thatâs not really where Hisayaâs ambitions lead him. He just wants to be happy and content doing what he likes.
[032] they ever win a major, prestigious award
Ideally his photography can get him one, but as long as his life isnât difficult he doesnât need that kind of recognition.
[033] they ever host the smn version of saturday night live
He hopes not. Heâs not MC or host material at all.
[034] they ever work tirelessly for years to get a project going
If he feels a certain passion for a photoshoot, and has a personal attachment to it, he would be willing to put in that much effort. But that kind of giant project he doesnât do often, and nor does he consider doing one soon.
[035] they take pictures with fans who approach them on their off time
Hisaya tries his best to not be recognizable, but if especial fans of his find him he doesnât mind taking a picture with them.
DOES YOUR CHARACTER
[036] invest their money wisely
Itâs more like he doesnât invest money often. Hisaya buys nice clothes, some other luxuries that make living easier, but heâs not an extravagant spender.
[037] work only on projects they love
Hisaya isnât terribly picky about his photography projects, but if he doesnât like the director he will refuse to work with them. Itâs more about the people conducting the shoot than anything.
[038] care more about the fame than anything
Nope. Hisaya both likes and dislikes fame, since heâs trying to make it work in moderation considering he doesnât have a choice in the matter. He wonât deny thereâs perks heâd be sad to give up, but he wouldnât cling to his fame relentlessly.
[039] often find theyâve put their foot in their mouth
All the time. Hisaya is shit at talking and it progressively gets worse when heâs flustered. Heâs better at explaining his thoughts in writing, because verbally heâs just a mess when heâs not being scripted for a public appearance.
[040] hide things from the public because they are afraid / ashamed of what the reaction could be
Absolutely. Anything that would be gossip-worthy heâs paranoid about becoming public, because he doesnât want that kind of attention. Heâs under enough pressure just trying to avoid it, living the lowkey life as he is, so the stress from actually bearing his life choices to the public would definitely be too much for him and he knows it. He spent the last few months hermiting, for example. He knows it was stupid, but he doesnât need the whole world telling him that.
DO YOU HONESTLY THINK YOUR CHARACTER
[041] is a good person
Hisaya is a decent person that isnât necessarily good samaritan good. He cares a lot about what others think, and that influences him too much at times. But his heart is generally in the right place, even if he doesnât have the conviction to be doing all that he can.
[042] will have career longevity
I think he can probably let his photography carry him through his life. He has enough drive for it as well as skill to make it last. He does need to decide whether heâs actually happy doing photography or not though, since from the beginning heâs always put most of his heart into his writing.
[043] deserves the career they have
Hisaya could have worked harder for what he has. He does deserve where he is now, since heâs very perfectionist about his work and puts forth the effort to produce his very best, but he also had many advantages that allowed him to get here.
[044] can remain unjaded by hollywood
Nah heâs already got a negative view of fame, and he doesnât consider Hollywood to be that great rather than a giant industry evil thatâs not going away any time soon.Â
[045] will spend the rest of their life with the person they marry
If he ever marries anyone, itâd be after a long long time and a lot of build up, so yeah. I think the foundation that would develop before marriage would be hard to break.
GIVEN THE OPPORTUNITY WOULD YOUR CHARACTER
[046] date / marry a fan
Hisayaâs pretty skeptical about anyone in regards to dating, but heâs not really concerned about whether theyâre a fan or not so sure. If it worked out that way.
[047] star on any type of reality show
Absolutely not Hisaya would never be able to last.
[048] donate to charity / do good deeds without publicity
Yeah, although itâs more questionable whether he takes that initiative on his own before it being suggested to him. Heâs not seeking out places to donate to, truthfully.
[049] say exactly what they think about the ins/outs of fame
Depending on who heâs talking to, he doesnât mind letting his friends know how he feels about fame. To people like the press or his family, heâll watch his answers more closely. He doesnât want his family to feel bad for bringing him into this life, and he doesnât need the press weaving that kind of story either if he speaks out of line.
[050] walk comic con without any security (in or out of disguise)
He probably wouldnât be recognized at comic con so sure. The question is whether heâd want to go to something like comic con.
Please watch this video, all 6 minutes of it. You will not regret it even if this âwant adâ of sorts doesnât speak to you.
This is, I suppose, a small project-esque want ad to film a commercial âseriesâ similar to this one! Background information and details under the cut my friends.
So story goes! My fashion photographer son, Hisaya, was adopted by a rich and famous American family and before he found his niche in photography, they often sent him to Japan to do commercials so heâd maybe find a career in acting. He didnât, but unfortunately he now has a reputation in Japan for doing the best, weirdest commercials they can think of, because that was his siblingsâ sense of humor when picking projects for him.
Those offers still come in, and when they go to him directly he usually rejects them because, really... must he?
But sometimes his family is contacted instead, and thatâs when Hisaya gets a call that heâs been cast for a new commercial and wishes he could disappear.
This recent commercial is a series! And the basic plotline is basically the same as the video! It doesnât have to be gum, per se, but if thereâs a more fitting euphemism product we can go with that instead.
Essentially Iâd like some additional stars for this commercial, both key characters like âChi-chanâ and âLong Manâ and maybe original ones if thereâs interest/ideas? Iâm guessing despite the short length, thereâs also a bunch of cut scenes they can film that are all equally embarrassing and ridiculous, so any ideas go even if they donât make it on air!
Do you have a crazy idea that makes this gum epic even more ridiculous? Is there another character involved in the Chi-chan, Tooru-kun, and Long Man love triangle?
Please message me (andie#2864) if so, Hisaya is the most suffering Tooru-kun in existence.Â
