any thoughts about charlie not going to prom? cause we get dees reasoning but not his.

Based on timing I'm assuming you sent the other ask right before this re Mac going to Prom so I will just muse on the concept of the Gang in high school and the idea of their prom here, if that's okay...

Something I think a lot of the Fandom ignores (or maybe doesn't remember or understand?) is that Mac, Charlie, and Dennis went to an all-boys Catholic school.

Mac and Charlie were losers in high school and basically only friends with each other for the majority of the time (and Dooley and Pete, but yk what I mean). Girls were not only a foreign subject to them, but in a completely foreign place (another school). The mere concept of, like, having a conversation with a teenage girl when they were 15 was off the table. Then, in comes Dennis. He seems to be popular and he calls himself a God when it comes to girls and he seems to have the experience and connections (see: Dee, lol), so that's enough to convince Mac and Charlie that he is one (a God, I mean to say).

I think a high school Mac would have been dick-notised by Dennis' ladies-man facade at first and desperate to rise to his level... mostly to impress him, but also because he was a horny teenage boy who had never even been kissed. But he was a loser, just generally embarrassing and dumb, and had literally no game due to looking 12 years old, so I don't think Dennis was all too eager to actually teach him how to be with girls, more like watch me bang them and learn. In my mind, this attitude results in Mac's eventual want to sleep with Dennis' prom date and his indifference to hurting his feelings over it (of course, I think blaming Tim Murphy and creating a rift between Dennis and his friend group was also an aspect here.. but I digress).

On the other side of the coin you have Charlie. I imagine Dennis' "pull" and attitude toward girls wasn't really something that won him over, but the exposure to girls wasn't a negative. He liked the idea of girls, and the idea of being friends with them, if they were like Dee, didn't seem terrible.. and they were pretty, especially the blond one whose name always escaped Dee...

Ok, all that being established as a general idea (of mine, I suppose lol), let's talk about the idea of the Gang [not] attending prom in high school.

The concept of prom for them, a boys' catholic school in the early 90s, would have been less like a typical public school prom (where the whole graduating class attends as a party together) and more like a formal mixer between the all-girls sister school (Dee's). Girls get asked out / show off their catholic boyfriends, while the concept of "going stag" was loser-ish or sleazy.. which makes perfect sense for Mac.

In my mind, Charlie may have been interested in going to prom with a certain girl, but Dee wouldn't introduce them and, honestly, getting high in the basement seemed like a better idea than approaching her himself (alternatively, he tried and retreated to the basement to get high). Mac definitely wanted to go to prom, though, probably worked hard to convince any girl to go with him, but he was/is the worst so literally no one was interested (and Dennis wasn't too keen to help him find someone). I imagine in the end he tried to convince Charlie to go with him as friends, they could find girls once they were there, but the idea was unconvincing and their many prior homosexual allegations coupled with the fact that Charlie ultimately wasn't budging on leaving the house (at a point of Mac pulling on him and trying to drag him into coming along) won the argument.

Eventually, a high Mac crashed prom on his own, mad at Dennis for not helping him out and having learned all his tricks on women from him, managed to isolate her and hook up with her without Dennis really noticing... when it comes out later that his prom date cheated on him with his friend, Mac is quick to blame Tim Murphy.. he and Charlie weren't even there, afterall, they were sniffing glue in the basement all night...

I am living for the Black horror movies.. because we live thee nightmare that everyone sits around and watch globally, and to see real spiritually traumatic transgressions and emotions on film by Black actors provides their Black audience with anew varieties of thoughts. Whole new dimensions of thoughts, pathways and connections -- addressing the dark; thee nightmare.

@/mun-and-his-muse  is the reason i never made my Mana active because i had talked about adding her earlier this year a few months back. but honestly i felt like he would ( and did ) target her wanting a ship but forced it and never asked real consent if i was ok with it. because how he worded it sounded like a duel spirit friend. not something more.

Honestly only considered only very recently ( last week? ) i’ll add Mana back here for a mun that wanted to interact with a Mana muse- and i think of them as a friend! i feel like i can TRUST that mun! but i don’t trust mun-and-his-muse he acted weird to me... now this is only going lightly into it -to vent my feelings and thoughts...

The thing is..hixtape isn't just a mixtape it's THE mixtape. His blood, sweat and tears, his feelings that he hides so many times, his insecurities, his struggles.. it will contains all of that, all the things that hoseok hide behind his powerful sunshine smile. I think the messages in it will hit me as much as in yoongi's if not harder..

In the future, I just want hoseok to smile because he's happy not because he has to.

No matter what, hoseok will spit fire and burn those bars, let's all appreciate and support hoseok and hixtape!

You have a right to be upset if something bothering you but you also need to get stronger so to not give a damn, otherwise you'll just keep hurting in the end. Things won't change, so strengthen yourself.
