A small Enjin x reader headcannon -

Enjin with an anxious reader, where during social gatherings senses when you’re uneasy and just grazes the tips of your fingers with his own.

A simple signal to let us know the we can take his hand, that he’s there without adding to the unease. 🥹

Slightly self indulgent imagine:

Alright, so imagine Enjin with a timid reader. He’s fond of her and they are sort of baseline friends at this point in time, but he’s begins to believe that there isn’t must else to them. Which in itself isn’t a bad thing. I’d like to believe it appreciates diverse personalities. One day, perhaps amidst a fairly neutral conversation, the reader lets a bit of her weirdness slip out and he’s just like:

“oop—”

And just as the reader is about to retreat, he just returns the gesture too and they both burst out laughing.

…And then they fall in love 😌

-The end

(I feel this video perfectly describes what I’m going for with this scene.)

Tried to make myself in the game ☺️ I’m pretty proud of how in-game me came out! I can’t wait for the full release!!

This maybe potentially controversial, but I’m choosing not to take part in the Lnd boycott. My reason behind this is as a poc fan of the game with criticisms towards the very same game, whenever someone like me speaks out on this various issues regarding the fandom (the racism and colourism) and the company itself, we get ignored, blown over, pushed aside, told that it’s not that serious, and told that we’re lucky that we even get to PLAY the game.

Lnd is a game that’s accessible to EVERYONE. The very least they could is people of colour to be able to self-insert and immerse themselves fully. And Infold hasn’t even done that fully. It’s not right that you lot tell us that we should consider ourselves “lucky.”

Not only that, but I’ve also noticed the obvious difference in engagement between black/brown content and white content. For a fandom that claims to be lovely and peaceful you can tell there’s distain. We get a fraction of the engagement that white fans get and that much is obvious. With that being said you want us to support you with this boycott? Nope, count me out.

We’ve been pleading to have our, frankly , more serious issues acknowledged for aeons only to receive crumbs and you expect us to bend over backwards and help out? No.

Is the fact that it’s increasingly harder to be f2p? Sure. Is Sylus being tried unfairly? Potentially yes. Is the fact that there’s no option for curly coily hairstyles for poc to use horrible? Obviously. Does it suck that there’s only one body type? Also yes. Is it weird that there’s no diversity amongst the npcs in Lnd’s world? Definitely.

I’ll only consider it fair when ALL issues and acknowledged and acted upon. Not just some, just because it doesn’t affect YOU personally.

Edit- I’d also like to add that the guys who also play the game had a right to want a male MC. Again, they should be able to express themselves and their frustrations, without being told to “stop complaining” or to “not play the game.” The same issue occurs when some problems are acknowledged because it is convenient for a prominent group in the fandom and not everyone else when it should be everyone.

Edit 2 - I've also had another thought. I think the reason why people have been saying Westerners are entitled is because it comes from a mindset of having everything catered to them from baseline. Do you have white skin and straight hair? Well, you can find that in customisations in every game. You've never had to reach out or felt uncomfortable about being unable to express yourself in customisable games. However, if someone with coily hair comes along and asks for options to include them as well, it's now viewed as an entitlement. That we're suddenly demanding too much. I don't think asking a company that makes an obscene amount of money off of their audience and who's catering to the same audience, for additional hairstyles and body sizes. I think it's because those who are in the default category (except for a few) simply can't fathom not being included in things. They literally can't or refuse to even attempt to see things from another's perspective and likely don't care for those who are constantly excluded. Which is why they create excuses for these companies.

A question for the Tumblr Stays: I’ve had an idea tossing around in my head about the reader/us being a host for a show around gaming and this show is really just the celebrity or idol playing video games and discussing things and generally hanging out. So I’m imagining the production team (I don’t know how TV works) sends a invite to Jyp asking if Stray kids would like to take part. They say yes, and the boys join the reader in some gaming fun while talking about things! I’m also thinking for this show there would be like categorises like; horror, open world adventures, and team based games like lethal company for example and the boys would take part in them and stuff and it would be super fun and funny for reader/us to watch and also take part of. But then I had another idea - picture this: boys have fall guys as their final game and since it can be team based they split into teams of four (one group is one game and the other is in the other) but then one of them notices that we/reader are left out and he sweetly (possibly because he’s got a little crush maybe-) offers that we and him take turns with the controller so we get to take part too! Now my question is who’s mostly likely to do that?
