20: Fanfiction?
on god i DO NOT know..... im not gonna say promstuck because thats my answer to the next question uhhhh ok lemme look thru ao3 im gonna be right back. uhh ok so i havent read any of these in a long time so dont judge me if they are bad i am thinking about them thru age 15 nostalgia goggles but i know i read gay cluckbeast like a LOT of times and the moon met the crow as well as like all of the johnkat ones because that was what i was into 8 years ago,, the lack of femslash in the homestuck fandom is astonishing WHERE was the vrisrezi slowburn. the only homestuck fic ive read recently was like. house of dirk. which is funny
25: Have a favorite crossover?
PROMSTUCK!!! probably because it branched off of marchingbandstuck and i was a huge band nerd in high school but deadass it is one of the funniest fanworks in existence i reread it this year and it absolutely holds up. it is the reason i got on tumblr in 2011
ok i did have to google this but actually i think dave probably had the biggest impact on my vocabulary.. i still say âwe are in THE SHIT nowâ like a lot... and all of the sbahj quotes they are just too ingrained in my vocabulary i dont even know what is and isnt homestuck anymore
Myungjunwas quiet for a few seconds before muttering, âIf I sing, will youlove me?â
âI'lllove you if you sing,â Jinwoo confirmed.
Myungjun'ssmile was incredibly bright all of a sudden, and he slapped Jinwoo'sback. âYou'll have to love me, then,â he said, then stood up and hurried off to the stage.
Jinwoo and Myungjun had been bestfriends since the day Myungjun moved in next door. He greeted Jinwoowith a grin and a squeaky, âMy name is Kim Myungjun and let's bebest friends!â
Jinwoo couldn't really reject Myungjun,especially not when Myungjun informed him of his birthday and Jinwoorealized how much older and cooler Myungjun was.
Even when he was in high school, hestill liked to boast that hisbest friend was a university student,and his classmates were in awe over the fact that he was actuallyable to friend someone so much wiser than all of them were.
Ofcourse, that wasn't really the case. Myungjun was just Myungjunâ he was outgoing and loud and sometimes obnoxious, and honestlynot much taller than Jinwoo himself.
He wasthe loudest one in the crowd when Jinwoo finally graduated fromschool, outdoing Jinwoo's own parents, much to their chagrin. And hewas the first one to run up at Jinwoo and scoop him in a tightembrace, ruffling his hair and exclaiming how proud he was of Jinwoofor graduating.
âHaveyou given much thought to college?â he asked cheerfully.
Jinwoohad smiled right back. âWherever you are, Hyung.â
Somepeople called it romantic, but Jinwoo laughed and waved them off.There was absolutely nothing romantic about his and Myungjun'srelationship. They were close, but they were friends,and Jinwoo prided himself on having a friend as amazing as Myungjunwas.
Forhis coming of age, Myungjun even took him to a bar, using his lowlycoffee shop paycheck to buy Jinwoo whatever he wanted.
âIt'sall on me!â Myungjun had exclaimed, waving the bartender over. âFormy best friend in the whole world, Park Jinwoo!â
âYou'retalking too loud, Hyung,â Jinwoo responded, though he was holdingback a grin as Myungjun passed over the drink menu.
âNope,I'll never talk too loud about how awesome you are. Everyone needs toknow.â
âNo oneneeds to know.â
Myungjunstared at him for a few seconds before clearing his throat andcalling out, âMy best friend Jinwoo is so a-â
Jinwoograbbed him before he could finish that, shoving a hand overMyungjun's mouth. A heavy blush fell across his cheeks as he triedshushing his friend. âMyungjun!âhe whispered, but Myungjun was giggling at Jinwoo's embarrassment.âStop it, Hyung! You're humiliating me!â
Inresponse to that, Myungjun licked at Jinwoo's palm, still stiflinghis voice, and Jinwoo gave a slight yelp as he jerked away. âGross!âhe exclaimed, then proceeded to wipe his hand on Myungjun's shirt.The giggles had turned into loud laughter, and Jinwoo scowled as hetried cleaning his hand. âWhy are we even friends? I wonder thatsometimes.â
âBecauseyou liiiiiike me,âMyungjun drawled. âBecause you loooooveme.â
âNo.â
Myungjungave him a fake pout before sipping at his drink. âEven after I'vetaken you out for Jinwoo's big day? Even aftereverything I've done.â
Jinwooshook his head. âEven after everything you've done.â He smirkedinto his own drink as he heard Myungjun whine, and then he reachedover to pat Myungjun's back. âIf you want to make it up to me, youcan go and try out the karaoke they have here.â
Myungjunglanced over at the small, empty stage and grimaced. âEveryone willlook at me. It'll be embarrassing.â
âSeriously?Everyone already looked at you when you started yelling.â
âYou'renot wrong.â
Jinwooshoved his friend. âIf you want me to love you, you have to gosing.â
âIcan't sing, though! You know that, I've never been a good singer.â
âI'venever heard you sing,âJinwoo pointed out. âBesides, if you're reallybad, you can just â I don't know â pretend you're drunk. You'regreat at doing that.â
Myungjunwas quiet for a few seconds before muttering, âIf I sing, will youlove me?â
âI'lllove you if you sing,â Jinwoo confirmed.
Myungjun'ssmile was incredibly bright all of a sudden, and he slapped Jinwoo'sback. âYou'll have to love me, then,â he said, then stood up and hurried off to the stage.
Jinwoowatched curiously. He hadn't thought Myungjun would truly go forthis. It didn't really seem like a Myungjun thing to do; while he wasoutgoing, he wasn't an attention-seeker. He lacked self-confidencewhen it came to performing or showcasing talents.
(Jinwoorecalled one fine example during an art showcase, where Myungjun tookhis gorgeous paintings off the wall and left after ten minutes, toonervous to have his art appraised in fear he learned they were lessthan Jinwoo told him they were.)
SoJinwoo did feelslightly bad when he saw Myungjun shaking, hands trembling to grab atthe microphone. Still, his gaze was steady and full of determinationâ but when the microphone fell, Myungjun halted for a second.
Jinwootook that second to push his drink aside and rush forward. He reachedfor the microphone at the same time Myungjun did â their handsbrushed, fingers lightly trailing across skin, and Myungjun glancedup with flushed cheeks.
âHere,let me-â Jinwoo started.
âI'vegot it,â Myungjun muttered quietly, and he certainly did. He pickedthe microphone up and offered a soft smile to Jinwoo. âYou'll loveme if I sing?â
Hedidn't know why Myungjun needed such assurance of that, but Jinwoonodded anyway, then stepped back to allow the older boy to pick outwhich song it was that he would be singing.
Themusic started as Jinwoo found his way back to the table.
Andthen Myungjun's singing started.
Jinwoowas certain that every eye in the bar was turned to him, that everybreath had stopped, that every single second on the planet had beengearing up for this point, for Myungjun's angelic voice. It was likehoney pouring forth from his mouth; the words came so naturally, thetone moved along so steadily.
Thedim lights in the bar didn't offer much in terms of spotlight, butMyungjun seemed to grab everyone's attention regardless.
And,most of all, he managed to grab Jinwoo's attention. Jinwoo forgotwhere he was and forgot that other people were around him; he wassolely focused on Myungjun.
Thesong came to a close, and people started to cheer. Myungjun smiledshyly at the faces in the crowd, but his eyes sought out Jinwoo's.
Stilltrembling, he put the microphone back on the stand and rushed over tohis friend. And, just like that, life moved on for everyone else.Only a few made comments on how nice Myungjun's voice was; to them,though, he was just another voice among all the other amateur singersout there.
But toJinwoo, Myungjun was the only one who mattered. He was the only onewho had captivated Jinwoo, utterly and completely.
âSo?âMyungjun sat down again, clearing his throat.
Jinwooblinked. âS-So?â
âSo,how was that?â
Howwas that? It was the best thing Jinwoo had heard in his life, and hestammered, âI-I-I mean, I thought...it, um, it-â
Myungjungiggled slightly before nervously grabbing at his drink. âAnd?â
âAnd?â
âAndaren't you supposed to tell me something now?â
Jinwoofell silent. He had to remember if he had made any promises toMyungjun, anything that he had to say once Myungjun was done singing.Myungjun stared at him with warm, brown eyes and an anxious smile.His fingers tapped at the glass of whatever it was he had beendrinking, displaying his anxiety, and then Jinwoo recalled what hehad to say.
Maybeit was the alcohol, maybe it was the atmosphere, maybe it was hisdamn affection for Kim Myungjun,but Jinwoo couldn't stop himself from leaning forward suddenly andplanting a kiss on Myungjun's cheek.
Myungjun'seyes widened, and he stared at Jinwoo in shock.
âAh,âJinwoo started, and he stood from his seat. âS-So, yeah, that waspretty, um, pretty good.â
Hemade a dash to get out, but Myungjun followed close behind. âJinwoo!Jinwoo, you liiiiiikeme?â
Jinwoodidn't answer, and so Myungjun grabbed his arm and spun him around.When they stood face to face, Myungjun's lips were pulled back in abreathtaking grin.
âJinwoo?âhe questioned again. âJinwoo, do you loooooveme?â
Jinwoobit down on his lip before nodding his head.
âJinwoo?âMyungjun was closer now, and his voice little more than a whisper.âJinwoo, I loooooveyou, too.â
(Jinwoogot kisses that night, which was exactly one-third of what he wassupposed to get forhis coming-of-age day. He mentioned this to Myungjun after they werebreathless and barely standing.
Myungjun'sresponse was bumping his nose into Jinwoo's cheek and murmuring, âIfyou want to forgo those gifts, I can kiss you exactly thirty-seventimes.â
âMm.Sure. Why thirty-seven?â
âI'vecounted the amount of times I've wantedto kiss you. I'm going to make up for it tonight.â)
no!! but i want a fern on the left side of my ribcage and i still want a homestuck light tattoo in honor of the two loves of my life (rose lalonde and vriska)
50. Whatâs your favorite kind of weather?
mmmm im from seattle and im cold rn so im gonna say 80 degree sun but u know what? wind storms slap as long as ur inside
honestly it would just have to be like who tf is this bastard bc he is the first panel of homestuck⊠idk he is a sweet & silly boy and i love him i think 14 y/o me liked him mostly as a foil for other characters i loved bc i tended to ship him a lot (namely karkat dave and vriska *comphet shudder* i still love a pale johnvris tho)Â
Impression now
wow ive been through a lot with this boy⊠idk he honestly has grown a lot but not in any sort of way i could relate to? like i always loved him a lot but as the post act five updates started rolling out i just found it a lot easier to identify with dave rose and jadeâs character growth? and the way that he started to get so immensely dissatisfied with his situation KIND OF historically mirrored me falling out with homestuck like. in 2015 when i started college and it was on hiatus near constantly i sort of stopped engaging with the fandom right alongside john starting to disengage from the narrative itself lmao but yeah
hes a good kid. goku-aligned. epilogue âepic divorce manâ john do not interactÂ
Favorite moment
oh boy i absolutely LOVE his act 5 interactions with the trolls⊠and the kids honestly all of them he is a smug bastard who loves his friends and enthusiastically gets to know a bunch of alien children threatening him with death lmfao the âhi karkat!â log still gets me to this day.Â
OH and the âhaha spiders are grossâ one @ vriska
ok i uhhh got into it im just. heres some more
story wise though i think my favorite part was after he got stabbed by jack and was reborn for the first timeâŠ. i fucking love that panel. this one i have drawn it 1000 times
Idea for a story
LOL i have no idea uhh. i rewrite the epilogue but instead of john being unfortunately heterosexual and marrying roxy while emotionally involved with terezi of all people ?? not the point anyway he actually talks with his friends about shit because i swear that boy is the most compulsively heterosexual character in the story hes worse than dave bc he was completely isolated with his twin sister on a ship for the majority of his formative teen years⊠im going no where with this i would just like john to have some emotional vulnerabilityÂ
Unpopular opinion
hes the worst beta kid⊠im sorry again i LOVE john but not as much as i love the rest of them. i feel like a parent saying which child is my least favorite im sorry john you were half of my age 14 otp tho johnkat 4ever but not really because karkat turned out to be probably TOO emotionally vulnerable for him john would hurt that boys feelings
Favorite relationship
oof ok i sort of just started going into this johnkat still holds a very dear place in my heart (@ promstuck ) but unfortunately i just dont think the post act 5 characterization aged that ship very well. johndave is cute but kind of boring (im sorry hayden) but tbh with the way john grew up?? i like dirkjohn a lot i think they could be good together because john has more of a fucking backbone then jake and would be a perfectly affectionate dick to dirk. he needs that. Again Epilogue John Do Not Interact
Favorite headcanon
hes really bad at video games. like genuinely so awful no one in earth c can believe he actually survived sburb
i literally had such a huge crush on azula when i was younger. my age 15 tumblrâs âwifeâ tag is almost exclusively pictures of her. now im mostly just pissed because she was 14 and deserved a redemption arc just as much as zuko did likeâŠâŠ she was a kid who was trained to be ruthlessly competitive and taught that if she wasnt perfect or stepped out of line once she would literally be banished.. like yeah she was a wee bit sadistic but also she just like. canonically has a Lot of issues i wish we got to see them explore her character more (im sorry upon rereading this im just like. god dammit it is so painfully obvious how much i stanned vriska as a kid im so sorry i just really like female characters playing a complicated villain role i have stupid lesbian disease)
Favorite moment
oh fuck idk she has so many good parts⊠her entire devolution in the last episodes is SO compelling and cool ⊠the way shes animated there is so fucking amazing
the whole beach episode is amazing⊠the âi dont have sob stories like all of youâ scene kills me in more ways than one
Idea for a story
episode titled Azula Goes To Therapy she goes vegan and joins a lesbian commune for 11 months
Unpopular opinion
i dont think any of my opinions for her are unpopular tbh... she is gay. she probably would watch a lot of shitty reality tv in her spare time. bad girls club on at all hours
Favorite relationship
i wanna say its ty lee/azula but HONESTLY she was really fucked up to both ty lee and mei so im gonna say its azula / her weird disembodied relationship with her own trauma i would like to have seen that explored more in the story
