⟨ether and water⟩

my theory on ether and its symbolism in the nct universe and how it connects nct subunits to one another, explains how the dream lab operates, and how nct affects reality through dreams

what is ether?

that's a great question with about six different answers

ether used to be used as anesthesia (a substance that leaves patients numb while conscious). it has been replaced with safer chemicals as it can be a dangerous substance

chemically, ether is a class of organic molecules that contain one oxygen bonded with two carbon atoms. most ethers are hydrophobic, colorless, and highly flammable in their gaseous state

historically ether was once thought to be a “highly elastic substance formerly [that permeated] all space, including the [space] between the particles of matter, and to be the medium whose vibrations constituted light and other electromagnetic radiation.” in simpler terms: a substance that was colorless, massless, and undetectable substance that transported light and sound waves. it was also considered the fabric of our universe

ether (also spelled aether or æther) in terms of mythology was believed to be what made up the air the gods breathed and what heaven was made up of. it was thought to be the regions beyond the clouds, above the terrestrial world. aether is also a primordial deity and the personification of the upper sky

spiritually, ether is a part of the five elements (ether, air, fire, water, earth) and represents “space” and the essence of emptiness of which all other elements exist

nct describes ether as a filtered wave from the sea of unconscious that acts as a “a limitless medium and can connect dimension to dimension, people within people, [and] emotions within emotions.” they claim to infinitely spread ether throughout their journeys

nctmentary episodes one through five

in the first nctmentary we see what we presume to be a bead of water floating in the air. however, i believe this is ether. the bead does not act like how water acts, as it warbles in the air and the way it seems like an oil (a hydrophobic substance); as it reshapes and spreads, colors and color schemes similar to some nctmentary scenes and many scenes from punch are reflected on its surface. we also see nct members (later revealed to be renjun and chenle) mimic the creation of adam painting and ocean waves appear. ether is the space in which everything exists and is created; this ties together nct ability of creation in their dreams

in the second nctmentary winwin says “i see waves in the dream” as he sees waves crashing through the window of a destroyed brick building. later in this nctmentary, we see the same waves appear in the washing machine jaehyun is using; the waves recede to reveal mark holding two bags of liquid, more than likely ether, which drop to the ground. as the bags drop, mark discusses connections between people, which ether can facilitate, further solidifying the idea that the bags are full of ether

we see mark drop one of the bags down a tree in the third nctmentary. nct’s dreams are said to be “connected like the branches of a tree” so it can be assumed that mark is spreading the ether down the tree to other branches and members of nct. later we see renjun and chenle discuss their connection as the image of outer space appears on screen and is quickly replaced with what looks like the same waves winwin saw in the window

in the fourth nctmentary, johnny is talking about connections he has made with people as mark reaches out to the camera and a drop of colorless liquid falls into winwin’s glass. winwin is presumably in a completely sealed room with a concrete ceiling; mark would have needed a non-physical way to connect to winwin to send him the drop as a signal, which is why the liquid must have been ether. we also see similar rippling imagery around lucas’ face to the backgrounds in punch, both of which are reminiscent of how a liquid moves and how the (assumed) ball of ether moved in nctmentary episode one. closer to the end of the video, johnny begins talking about the lack of limitation in the dream lab and water the same color as the waves winwin saw bubbles on screen

finally, in the fifth nctmentary, we see jisung walk out of a sideways ocean onto a plank that is perpendicular to the world; during this, kun is discussing his experience of “dreaming… a dream in a dream.” in the latter parts of the video we see jeno and jisung looking at glasses of a clear liquid that suspend rocks with the message “wake me up” transcribed on them. we also see these rocks in the japanese version of nct 127′s limitless

deeper analysis

we know nct’s dreams affect reality; its why the dream lab was created. “this DREAM LAB is created to break the limits of reality and bring the dreams into reality” (nctmentary episode 5, mark’s narration). however, there needs to be a way to influence reality through dreams and ether is a “limitless medium” that can connect “dimension to dimension,” so the dream lab must be able to manipulate ether to conform to nct’s dreams and bend the rules of reality

in the past & future - ether video, there is a distinction made between the ‘conscious’ and ‘unconscious’ worlds; ether transcends dimensions (worlds) and that is how nct affects reality through their dreams. as nct dreams of new journeys, they spread ether throughout the unconscious world (dream) which seeps into the conscious one (reality)

music videos [overview]

certain music videos also show nct’s connection through clear liquid, which i believe to represent ether. ether in its liquid form is seen most obviously in wayv’s moonwalk and turn back time, nct 127’s simon says and superhuman, nct dream’s we go up and boom, and nct u’s yestoday, without you, and from home. all of these videos have a large amount of water in them or have a glass of clear liquid in at least one scene. i believe this imagery is a piece of what connects all subunits to one another, how the units communicate to each other, and how the units affect the nct universe

disclaimer !! this is not a full theory and is to be added onto and altered, also i’m pretty sure none of this has been confirmed by sm, so take it with a grain of salt <3

Winwin has you seated in front of a mirror, back pressed against his chest, and legs spread to the side as he drags an ice cube along your chest.

His eyes were focused intently on yours as the ice melted over your nipple and made the buds perk up. He did this all too slowly and made it even harder for you to continue to keep your head straight.

“Be a good girl, Y/N” he whispered into your ear as the ice traveled downward and your body shivered underneath his touch when the cold cube made contact with your folds.

Your body squirmed when Winwin inserted the now partially melted ice into your hole and he repeated the process one more time before moving himself so that he was situated in between your legs.

“My pretty girl is leaking” he said and it made you look down at him earning a light smack to your thigh, “focus there, not here” he scolded and pointed to the mirror.

When your eyes looked back into the mirror, the boy attached himself to your pussy, giving small licks up and down your folds to allow himself to get a taste of you. “Sweet as always” he murmured and though you thought that your release would come soon, his teasing only continued down there.

[11:12 pm] you are falling asleep on mark’s chest, both of you so comfortable in your bed during a rainy night. you can hear his heartbeat, and the vibrations in his chest whenever he laughs. he sings songs to you until you drift off into sleep.

Guys I think I cracked NCT China concept

It's based on this triology

Mona lisa overdrive room

NCT VISION is in the control room all this time they have been "controlling" the other units like directors in their own movie

Everything from NCT has been an illusion only NCT Vision is real

You know how they say Mona Lisa eyes always seem to be watching you from every angle...NCT Vision are watching the other units they are the "control masters"

Doesn't the cover of regular album seem similar to the book cover for mona lisa overdrive

Same city setting

[moonbinthewriter]

A concept: Irregular office but it's really just an underground den where they make obscene amounts of cash using totally not illegal methods

Still not really familiar with the boys yet but Taeyong looks like he'd be in charge of spotting and detecting counterfeits

And Johnny would be the cold headed/hearted man who calls the shots

Someone pls send in your NCT guides I'm lost
