CHAPTER TWO OF SUFFOCATION LIKE A LOVING CARESS IS UP
RM got injured
Namjoon hurt his knee during morning rehearsal at “The Late Show” and they went to the hospital shortly after. He didn’t look like he was in pain during evening filming, though.

hm should I include a phone sex scene in SLLC
phone sex yay or nay
yay
nay
Look do I think it’s going to be good for the reader when Jonathan inevitably returns? … No.
Do I think it’s morally a good idea to have sex with him when we’re in a relationship with Bruce? … Also no.
But do I desire that man carnally, and am I really excited by the idea of topping to the point where I’m willing to throw it all away in a lust filled haze??? … Yes. As soon as we unblock him THE SITUATIONSHIP IS BACK ON! WE’RE MAKING EACH OTHER WORSE AND GOING DOWN TOGETHER! HAND IN UNLOVABLE HAND!!!
if you want to see the reader make good, healthy decisions… don’t read SLLC. or even STBOTDI. i know y’all are here to see her make the messiest decisions possible and I am here to make that happen ☺️
(I am excited for her dynamic with Jonathan in SLLC. if you can guess what other fictional relationship I’m kinda basing them off of, you get ten points and a sneak peek at the next chapter lol)
potential* smut scenes for the sequel below the cut if you don’t want to be spoiled don’t look (*i say potential bc I’m still not entirely sure if all of these will happen/will have the correct set up to happen)
Bruce:
In the bath
batmobile sex 😌
This one possibly goes along with the one above but idk I kinda want an angry sex scene with Bruce.
edward
Phone sex lol
jonathan
Therapist/psychiatrist roleplay bullshit. Just being weirdos.
hmmmm Reader topping……….
hiya!! so excited for sllc and i know you made a playlist ( banging btw ) and it really got me thinking about my music taste and the vibes im getting based on the first chapter so far..
bruce and reader are giving me very much emergency contact by pierce the veil. reader is still trying to overcome her trauma from stbotdi but also suffering from the absence of bruce in their relationship.
edward and reader remind me of cirice by ghost. edward seeing himself as the best option and maybe how life could’ve been better for reader if she decided to run away with him like he proposed, also the reuse throughout the song of ‘i can see through the scars inside you, i can feel the thunder that’s breaking in your heart’ just feels like a constant reminder that he always has tabs on reader?? idk maybe im reaching here…
since we haven’t seen any of reader and jonathan yet..i’ve chosen falling down by muse. i could sort of see him having this vibe towards reader where he’s annoyed that his plan didn’t work because of her going against him but she still is significant to him, which this song kinda matches their vibes that i’m imagining, but i could be far off lol
anyways sorry for the absolute WAFFLE but i just thought it would be fun to send my thoughts over because this fic lives rent free in my head ;p
oooooh thank you so much!! I've added them to my (personal) inspo playlist! If I get enough recommendations, I might make a crowd-sourced playlist because I do really like having all the songs you all recommend in one place!!
Never apologize for sending song recs (or just general thoughts), I LOVE hearing them!!
Emergency Contact: I haven't heard this song before and I do think that it really captures the vibe of their relationship, at least at the beginning of the fic. They're still figuring out how to go from being traumatized loners to loners-in-a-relationship, which I think is a more difficult transition for Bruce. So there is a lot of tension there, but the reader doesn't want to acknowledge it because she doesn't want to ruin (what she perceives as) a healthy relationship (it is not healthy).
Cirice: I will always accept Ghost (I mean, STBOTDI's title was inspired by a line from Deus in Absentia). Edward (as we will see soon) definitely has a lot of resentment towards the reader and Bruce's relationship, which does manifest in him being patronizing and possessive towards her. But he also has his own ulterior motives which we will see glimpses of soon.
Falling Down: I will not spoil what their vibe will be for this fic, but I do like this song for them :3 That's all I'll say, because we have a few chapters before Jonathan comes back into the fic (as a character and not just a haunting presence in the reader's mind).
if STBOTDI was very Midnights coded, then SLLC is very The Tortured Poets Department coded. I don't make the rules.
I forgot about the whole “Bruceheads/team Edward/Jonathan girlies” aspect lmao
glad to see you all are doing well and I look forward to seeing all of your interactions
