a/n: this was originally titled "random ways ot13 annoy you" but i don't know, maybe you're cool with these things. maybe i'm cool with these things. or maybe they really are annoying! ultimately, this is me putting myself out there with a low-stakes writing thing, as well as emptying my brain of Situations™ i put these guys in. anyways, enjoy!
seungcheol
y'all are on facetime and he's getting sleepy. you make note of it and he yells NO! I’M NOT! with a pout. so you shrug and go into a story from work that day. mind you, he is trying soooo hard to listen but his eyelids are getting real droopy. it takes like three rounds of this back and forth for him to finally admit defeat. he does, however, ask you to stay on the phone till you get sleepy too because he is a stubborn clingy whipped leo man.
jeonghan
he will hide things behind his back and have you guess what it is. usually it is a random thing like a pebble from outside or a small plant from your literal apartment. on occasion, it is a cute new thing or a sweet treat and you get very excited. but mostly the first category. you once grew especially exasperated trying to guess and he bashfully revealed a toy sword.
joshua
seeing how happy you get at even the thought of blind boxes, he gets a whole set. he says that rather than opening them all in one go, either of you can open one whenever a pick-me-up is needed. he does not buy that opening all 6 at once is necessary because otherwise, per your impassioned response, you will d*e. then after a not great week, you begrudgingly agree that it was a good idea. you also suggest going to the store and grabbing another one since that's not really against the rules.
jun
in an attempt to avoid a morning alarm because it's the worst sound in the world, y'all decide to get one of those sunlight alarm things. since he wakes up before you (and since you wear an eye mask to bed), he figures it would be sweet if he wakes you up gently with lil kisses and nuzzles. he does not consider how comfy he gets and how easily it is to just...go back to sleep. after a few days of being late to work because of this, you revert back to the stupid marimba sound or whatever.
soonyoung
like hunter gatherers of the modern age, you both save up tiktoks and memes to show each other right before bed. it's a ritual soonyoung loves, trying to find something to make you laugh harder than the night before. he's too excited, turning the screen back to himself before you even get to the punchline. he's cackling and you're like, "wait i don't get it." "oh" and he turns the screen back. you hold his hand firmly, which he gets all blushy about. but really, it's just so you can watch the video before it ends.
wonwoo
how this began, you have no clue. but whenever you're driving, wonwoo will insist on reading the gps directions out instead of having them on the screen. i guess it's to save phone battery or something??? but he does do a good job at balancing that while also holding a conversation. you do insist every time that he can just set it and forget it. but no, he wants to do it.
woozi
you're sitting in the kitchen and you let him know you have to focus on a high-priority assignment. headphones on, phone on do not disturb, and this guy has the AUDACITY to change into the bootiest booty shorts in existence. totally innocent, as if he's not trying to distract you. some slutty song plays through your headphones as he stretches up towards the cabinets to put dishes away. your eyes are about to fall out of your skull; meanwhile, he's not even looking your way (though you do see him blush a little).
minghao
he plops next to you on the couch and notices you're a bit frazzled. as he has before, he offers to give you a massage. you accept and wow oh wow he must have been a masseuse in a past life or something because he gets all the knots out. tension? gone! stress? vanished! knocked? the fuck out! yes, these massages often mean y'all have to skip dinner plans with friends—the only thing seeing you that night is your bed and a much-needed 8+ hours of sleep.
mingyu
mingyu is very much a yapper, and hearing him talk makes you feel like those capybaras sitting peacefully in hot springs. he has a habit of ending his sentences in a way that you think he’s gonna continue speaking but he's like "oh no i'm done!" you start with, "okay cool so—" "WAIT NO i just remembered something else i had to say!" you raise a brow in confusion, then gesture for him to go ahead and say what's on his mind. bonus points for every time he goes, "uhhh. wait i forgot."
seokmin
holidays with seokmin are a blast, though you've learned to really prepare over the years. for example: your place has become the place to be for halloween and it's all because he can't help giving handfuls of candy to every cute kiddo. thankfully, you buy tons of backup bags. he will play dumb if a kid comes back again but pretends they haven't. because all it takes is a toothless smile for him to be like, "awwww, here's the entire bag and a gift card to cheesecake factory from my wallet!"
seungkwan
the second he hears you even sorta sniffle, he gets unbelievably fussy. we're talking 24/7 around the clock you cannot lift a finger without him scolding you (lovingly, gently, trying to be as chill as possible). don't even think about going to the living room to grab your charger. you might as well have broken your ankle! THE THEATRICS OF THIS GUY! he will power walk to the living room to get it for you before your feet even have a chance to touch the floor.
vernon
whenever you go out to eat, he'll order the same thing you do ("you always pick the best stuff," he claims). once the food arrives and you dive in, you catch him stealing bites from your plate. "babe, we ordered the same thing." "yeah but it tastes better from yours," he says with a shrug. y’all end up just eating off each other’s plates. and even when he decides to branch out and order something different, he'll always say that what you ordered was indeed better after inhaling like half of it.
dino
he will listen to you talk about anythingggg including any and every internet trend. he will have so many questions, which is sweet because he is truly paying attention. you do not have the heart to tell him that most of his questions do not have answers. it's all just slop! brainrot! some of these things barely require a braincell to understand! you simply cannot explain Donatella VERSACE 💜 to him when it’s just a vibe. most of these tangents end with him blinking away his confused expression and nodding lovingly.
makeout session headcannons w jeonghan? oh plssss its a need!!
Makeout Session! Jeonghan headcanons
as we all know, he is SUCH A TEASE. he will make it seem like you are yearning for him to just kiss you, but in fact he was playing mind tricks with you
he will go full on babying mode. just imagine him saying “aww does my baby want my kisses?” “have you been waiting for me all day?”
and somehow, you would fall for his tricks (i mean, who wouldn’t) leaving him feeling satisfied
he either pins you against any surface available, or places his hands on your waist to keep you steady. seeing you beneath him, breathing heavily from his teases, makes him fold IMMEDIATELY
he waits. he waits for you to lean in first, acting so desperately for him. he will definitely chuckle first, before giving into you.
unlike his cheeky personality, his kisses are always so sweet, and so gentle when he does it.
he’ll savour you for as long as he wants, playing with your tongue using his. he just enjoys your taste so much he doesn’t want to let go.
when your hands reach up to hold onto his shirt, be sure that he will definitely smirk through the kiss, mumbling something like “you want more? tell me baby.”
he’ll let go for a moment, staring at how breathless you were, and how swollen your lips were from the kiss. he’ll place his hand on your chin, rubbing your lips with his thumb, smirking even more with that teasing look of his.
and little did you know, he will dive right back in to continue the makeout session, because who said he was done tasting you?
Hiii could you pls write about how seventeen gets their s/o to sit in their lap?? Thanks so much
svt getting their s/o to sit on their lap
a/n: i hope this is sufficient for my very delayed return (please).
seungcheol:
✿ it's truly just second nature for him at this point
✿ he'll just casually guide you onto his lap and you don't really question it either
✿ say you're about to sit next to him on the couch
✿ as you're about to sit he'll just lightly pull your wrist in his direction and there you are
jeonghan:
✿ loves to rest his head on your shoulder when you sit on his lap
✿ the simplest "come here" and you're following
✿ he loves this because you don't even have to pay attention to him but he has all the access to wrap his arms around your middle
joshua:
✿ pats his leg when you want to show him something on your phone
✿ "josh look at this thing i just saw-"
✿ immediately, he's sitting up and spreading his legs so you can walk in the space between them and sit on one of his thighs
✿ "let me see, pretty"
jun:
✿ will gradually shift you onto his lap over time absentmindedly
✿ neither of you two really notice but you just wind up there
✿ you were watching a movie on opposite ends of the couch (which is fine) but now you're there??? (no one is complaining)
hoshi:
✿ so annoying about it (i mean this in a loving way)
✿ why should you sit anywhere else when his lap is literally right there??
✿ even if you sat somewhere else without thinking about it he's jokingly scoffing "so you hate me"
✿ (it's okay, just go sit on his lap and peck his cheek and he's all giddy again)
wonwoo:
✿ pulls you towards him by an article of clothing
✿ it could be your pants loop, the sleeve of your hoodie, or the back of your shirt
✿ he doesn't need to ask you twice :')
woozi:
✿ always asks for your opinion when he makes a new beat or writes new lyrics
✿ "i want you to listen to this" he says with a hand stretched out
✿ he likes to have you sit on his lap while he places the headphones around your ears
✿ he gently presses his forehead to your back as he waits for your thoughts
dokyeom:
✿ perpetually wrapped around you anyway (his love language is physical touch)
✿ it doesn't take long when an arm around your shoulder as you're sitting next to each other moves to your waist
✿ then he figures this isn't close enough and he'll also maneuver you so you're eventually on his lap. he'll quite literally wrap his arms around your middle so he can move you
✿ "this is better" as he nudges his face into your neck
mingyu:
✿ will manhandle you if he has to
✿ you try teasing him just to see him get pouty and as you're trying to get away from him, he uses a little bit more of his strength to pull you towards him
✿ but as you're sat you feel him mumble against your shoulder "do you actually not want to?"
minghao:
✿ i think he's a pretty straightforward person
✿ a simple tucking your hair behind your ears and he's caught your attention
✿ "i want you closer" as he holds your arm to help you move
seungkwan:
✿ dances around the subject instead of just telling you what he wants lol
✿ "did you know that sitting on wooden chairs is actually bad for your back? there's no cushioning"
✿ "oh really? should we order cushions then or-"
✿ "you could sit somewhere else"
✿ "but i need the table for my laptop and i get so lazy on the couch-"
✿ "then maybe you could just sit here" he offers, moving his chair back to welcome you. then it all clicks (he's a dork)
vernon:
✿ also probably someone who just tugs you gently in his direction
✿ i don't think he'd need to use words for you to get it either
✿ even if you're standing around him doing anything else and you feel him lightly pull the back of your sweater you follow him without giving it much thought
chan:
✿ as long as you're in his vicinity he pulls you with him as he sits down
✿ both of you just came home from work? he's dropping himself down on the couch and you're coming with him
✿ has most definitely missed at least once and you both landed on the floor

cast song/dance: is this love by xg
villa boys: scoups, joshua, hoshi, seungkwan, dino
bombshells: jeonghan, wonwoo, mingyu, jun
casa amor: woozi, dk, minghao, vernon
cw/tags: suggestive, regular reality tv trash things, you pick the winner
a/n: this season pissed me tf off. did i watch every single night without fail? yeah. yeah, i did. but i'm going to write svt hcs about it bc i'm convinced my version would be more fun!!! anyway, remember this is love island so some of these guys are dumb, messy, toxic, or all of the above. that's what makes it fun! :) it is not-at-all a reflection of any of the members or how i see them. also, don’t think too hard about how many people are in the villa or how all the casa boys make it back. just enjoy it LOL.
scoups
♫ intro video song: fever - enhypen
he’s the OG guy who gets cuffed on day ONE but nobody dogs on him for it bc they’re kind of intimidated by him (bombshells are a different story; they give him so much shit). he obnoxiously makes out with his partner every moment of the day, and social media is all "do they even know anything about each other?" no. they do not. his partner doesn’t even realize his name isn’t actually scoups. but their physical chemistry goes crazy so whatever i guess. they get kicked out of the room early on bc they’re too noisy at night so they start sleeping (aka fucking) in soul ties. they fight a lot bc they’re both super jealous people. he’s immediately beefing with every single male bombshell that comes in and flat out ignores female bombshells. so much so, that america creates a misogynist scoups agenda. they watch as this man stares blankly in the other direction when female bombshells say hello. simply scoffs when they ask to to pull him for a chat. doesn’t even entertain breathing near any girls during challenges. the islanders kind of get annoyed with this behavior and they start to think he’s boring, but his partner is ofc very pleased with how “well-behaved” he is. but... she doesn't return that energy. she eagerly gives male bombshells her time and she happily kisses people during challenges (“it’s just a challenge!” “I DON’T CARE” “we aren’t even closed off!” “AGAIN. I DO NOT CARE!”), so he’s constantly raging lmao. when casa comes around and the producers desperately present him with someone a little more compatible with his expectations for a partner, he finally starts to open his eyes. he still doesn’t do anything bc as toxic as he can be sometimes, he’s still trying to be respectful! he does bring his casa girl back to the villa, though, and his villa partner has the crashout of all crashouts. he tries to calm her down and explain he just wants to explore, but she won't hear any of it, calling him all kinds of names. he doesn’t know why but he continues to try and get on her good side or at least explain why he brought his casa partner back. she just keeps ignoring him and talking to several guys (who won’t really give her much bc they’re scared of scoups). he’s making them both breakfasts every morning (OG girl keeps throwing the food out or even at him) and he keeps splitting his time between having nice conversations with casa girl and getting ignored by OG girl. and then... movie night happens and he sees what she was up to during her time at casa, and let's just say he's very happy he explored. anyway, she's voted out and he gets to experience some peace with his new partner, who genuinely likes him, knows his government name, and is completely uninterested in making him jealous or raising his blood pressure. both america and the villa like him a lot more after that lol.
💗: wins the heart rate challenge. as a firefighter. or devil. you decide.
INSTIGATOR 🫵🏼 he’s one of the earlier bombshells, if not the very first one; his walk-in song is "1-800-hot-n-fun" by le sserafim. he comes in on a game night where the girls are blindfolded and ranking kisses from the villa boys. he makes out with every single one of the girls (♫ i like to dance when i party / i like to kiss everybody ♫ like, hello?) while the guys just have to watch LMAO. the girls unanimously agree that the last kiss was the best kiss and surprise! it’s fucking jeonghan. he's just hella smirking while the other guys are standing there, angry, clenching jaws and fists, and rolling their eyes and shit. his intro video is typical bombshell behavior: “i’m not here to make friends," “i don’t care who i make mad,” “i’m here for me and for love.” reader, he is absolutely not here for love but he is 1000000% here for the $100k prize. as such, he’s constantly whispering in people’s ears and trying to break everyone else up lmao. but he’s also so charismatic that even if some of his scheming comes to light, everyone still somehow tolerates him. some of them are even delighted by him. he gets a kick out of pissing the other men off by making out with their partners during challenges and plays innocent after, bro-ing it up with them and saying it was just for the game… just to turn around and tell the girls he loved the kiss and he'd like to get to know them (bruh. all of them...?). he never stays in one couple for long, but only bc he’s not really interested in anyone so they’re constantly choosing another guy at the next possible recoupling. regardless, he manages to stay in the game all season either from sheer luck, from friendship couplings, or from america voting him to stay in bc they like his mess and he does put annoying people in their place with his smart ass mouth. karma comes in the form of movie night, though, which is a fucking nightmare for this man lmfao. everyone sees how much he's been lying and gossiping and playing all sides, and the entire villa erupts into chaos. i’m talking multiple guys threatening violence. every single girl (including his own partner) throwing popcorn. his name trending worldwide on social media. he never made a meaningful connection bc he was too busy playing games and after making an enemy out of the entire island, he gets voted out shortly after movie night. but his personality is so funny on social media that america immediately forgives him. the remaining islanders even admit the house is a little sad and boring without him and they all become genuine besties with him post show.
joshua
♫ intro video song: stupid in love - max feat. huh yunjin
long-time fans of love island watch his intro video and immediately know this man should not be in the villa. the intro video goes like this. he says he's never been in a serious relationship bc he's scared of getting hurt. he wants someone he feels safe with and hasn't experienced that yet. he says his dream date can be anything, but that he'll think of it as perfect if the time goes by without him noticing bc he's enjoying her company so much. he says it feels silly to go on love island but there are few things he won't do for the sake of love. in short, everyone immediately pegs him for the sincere, honest-to-god LOVER BOY he is. most of the OG girls skip over him bc they all want a bad boy even if they won’t admit it (scoups gets the most choices to choose from for the first coupling lol), and they can smell joshua's good boy aura from a mile away. the first partner joshua gets is just super bestie vibes but as more and more of the girls get to know him, the more everyone starts to question if they want him instead. really, they’re just not used to men who properly listen to them the way he does (but yes, they still do want him instead). he makes a connection with a bombshell who makes it abundantly clear in her intro video that she’s going into the villa for joshua and only joshua ("it's time for me to let a real man love me, and i know those girls in the villa don't see what i do, but joshua? he is a real man."). she’s very forward with her intentions and being wanted so loudly is a really nice feeling for him. she gets tired of him being pulled for chats by every bombshell that comes after her bc they’ve all seen him on the show and know how sweet he really is. BUT! he stays true to his partner and he constantly recouples with her (he has the CUTEST recoupling speeches btw). both of them are on their best behavior during casa, and both of them are good sports about the other kissing islanders during challenges. she's upfront with every male bombshell that pulls her, informing them she’s Serious™️ about joshua and uninterested. he doesn’t do the same bc he’s kind of oblivious and thinks he’s just talking to new friends. but if girls ask him if he’s "open," he tells them hell fucking no (not verbatim bc he's too nice). they get chosen for the first outside villa date and they close things off. they're also the first couple chosen to go into the hideaway by the other islanders (no one fucks and tells but they glow differently hehe). a fan favorite to win!
jun
♫ intro song: filter - jimin
this man has never watched an episode of any version of love island in his entire life. he doesn’t know what it is, and he barely understands what’s happening. he was just scouted on social media and thought it would be a fun “for the plot” side quest. america votes that he should be the next bombshell and he arrives after a recoupling (his walk-in song is "move" by taemin). the girls who were left single and vulnerable are obviously over the goddamn moon (heh) and are all over him. girls who are coupled up are also all over him. unfortunately, bc he doesn’t know what’s happening or how any of this works, the asshole producers take advantage of that and tell him to steal a girl… from scoups (his toxic OG partner). he does and obviously causes insane levels of drama even though all he did was pull her for a chat. scoups starts by glaring at him and quickly graduates to yelling at him—telling him he’s being disrespectful, complaining that he should know they’re serious and shouldn’t have pulled her (“how would i know you’re serious…? i got here 5 minutes ago…” *entire villa has to hold scoups back*). so jun immediately wipes his hands clean of that, even avoiding the girls coupled up to chill guys or in friendship couplings who want to get to know him. nope! he sticks to talking to girls who aren’t coupled up at all. he’s DONE being a homewrecker!!! he makes breakfast for all the single girls, makes sure they all get chats from him so they’re not lonely, does whatever they wanna do—pingpong, working out, tanning, etc. basically, it’s giving… he adopted all of them...? he’s literally just being friendly esp bc he doesn’t want to even breathe around the coupled girls, but unbeknownst to him, the single girlies are all falling in love. they're fighting to be the one he couples up with, the girls he ignores are jealous he won’t even give them the time of day, and a few of the guys are kind of annoyed that all the attention is on the bombshell. jun ends up coupling with a girl he feels like is his best friend. she’s also the only one not constantly breathing down his neck so that's a nice plus. surprisingly, he ends up really liking her, and soon she’s the only one getting his breakfasts and playing pingpong with him. he doesn’t even realize how many hearts he broke, and america loves him for how oblivious and aloof he is about the entire process. he's literally just happy to be there and everyone is obsessed with that, including his partner. another fan favorite to win!
soonyoung
♫ intro song: lemon drop - ateez
an OG boy who serves himbo realness. he’s hot, he’s funny, and it seems like there isn’t a single thought in that beautiful head. after scoups, he’s a pretty popular pick for the first coupling, and he ends up choosing whoever he thinks is hottest. that fizzles out fast bc he finds her laugh a little grating and he’s simply too funny to be around someone whose laugh he doesn’t like. all is well, though, bc she finds herself more interested in someone else anyway. he quickly becomes the comic relief in the villa, the appointed class clown. there are so many screenshots of him on social media saying the funniest and/or dumbest things, and he becomes the most quotable islander in love island usa history. the downside is that he goes several days—maybe weeks—without any girls taking him seriously, and it annoys the fuck out of him bc hello!!! he’s hot??? and all any of them want from him are laughs?????? america notices this and votes for him to have a date with the next female bombshell. they hit it off, but when casa comes around, the house is full of girls who know soonyoung is hungry for some, ahem, proper attention and are too willing to give it to him. at the end of the day, he is still just a man. so he brings another girl back to the villa, and his original partner (who decided to remain single and wait for him) is devastated. so he in turn is also devastated (embarrassingly cries really hard in confessional, which makes it really hard for america to hate him). cue days of him not knowing what to do even though it’s clear his casa pairing is literally just based on lust. he just really doesn't want to hurt her even though he wants to be with his OG partner. but then the tweet challenge comes and someone gets “_____ is fr pissing me the fuck off bc why is he wasting his time with _____ when his soulmate is obviously _____!” they don’t even guess him as the answer, but when they read it aloud, he immediately thought of himself and his OG partner, and that was sign enough for him to come to his senses. he tells his casa pairing that he made a mistake and he’s so sorry but bye!!! then, he grovels for forgiveness from his OG partner. they ultimately recouple and make it to the finals without any other hiccups, though there's a lot of joking about this incident ("remember when you left me for a hoe you knew for two days." "no, actually, no i do not."). is that healthy? maybe not. but either way, these two are in luv.
📲: the audience is absolutely floored when they realize soonyoung is not a true himbo, as he is a successful surgeon. or lawyer. or engineer. you decide.
wonwoo
♫ intro song: bouncy - ateez
ohohohoho. imagine this. it’s the heart race challenge, and it’s not like this current season’s bs where they do it as a couple; NO, it’s solo! the girls are out at the fire pit, and the guys go give them lap dances one at a time, by themselves! when they’re done, they’re all brought up to the balcony and are confused about why they aren’t being brought back to the fire pit to join the girls. then, boom. "2 baddies" by nct starts playing and we see a porsche pulling into the driveway in slow-motion. two new male bombshells (whose faces we don’t see yet) get out of the car… in slow-mo. we watch them enter the villa in—you guessed it—slow-mo. we get zoomed in, slow-mo shots of golden tan skin. wide ass shoulders. abs. tiddies. ass. t-aychi-u-n-d-e-r thighs. the camera pans out and not only is wonwoo walking in (in slow-mo) but mingyu is too (also in slow-mo). they’re both dressed in slutty ass cop costumes. they’re smirking at each other in slow-mo. they’re high fiving in slow-mo. they’re winking at the camera in slow-mo. they’re looking over their shoulders in slow-mo. they’re just existing and being hot in slow-mo. you watch love island. you get it. they finally get back to normal speed. they’re introduced and immediately get to doing their thang on the girls, dancing and grinding and kissing and licking and swallowing faces—normal love island things. the guys are all watching from the balcony and screaming in agony (tiger-dressed soonyoung being the loudest ofc). after the game, the producers don’t let them change into regular clothes, so wonwoo is awkwardly trying to cover all his skin as he gets to know the girls. this man has his arms crossed, hands tucked into his armpits, forearms over his tits and covering his nipples. he hunches over when he sits to try and cover his abs and maybe draw less attention to his leather speedos. it’s not working at all. everyone is still ogling him. one girl tells him to hold on and when she gets back, she has a throw blanket. she hands it to him and he gratefully uses it to wrap around his shoulders. he blushes and quietly thanks her, and he’s touched by her observant nature. they talk about their families and interests; they realize they both like games. they talk for a long time, and when it’s time to go to bed, they clean up, meet back in the bedroom, and they sit on her bed and are still talking. the lights go out but they don’t let that stop them; these mfs keep yapping. everyone is begging them to shut up and go to sleep, so they finally relent, and wonwoo goes back to his own bed. from then on, they’re quite literally inseparable and they couple up at the earliest opportunity. these two + mingyu (since he and wonwoo immediately became bombshell besties) are america's three musketeers, constantly voted villa favorites for everything. whenever tiktoks are made of them, there's always at least one (but usually several) "may this kind of love find me EXPEDITIOUSLY" comment.
📲: many people ship the three musketeers as a throuple :)
woozi
♫ intro song: back for more - txt
our first casa boyyyyyyy hehe <3 the casa boys are ofc introduced in their swimming trunks and mans is obviously hot and hunky. his intro video is just as hot as he is, and the audience learns a few things: he had his heart broken a year ago and hasn't dated since, he came to love island mostly for shits and giggles, and his friends are convinced this is what he needs to do to move on. he shyly says he thinks his friends have a very different idea than he does of what moving on entails (they just want him to get his dick wet lmao), but he would prefer to make a genuine connection, though as a skeptic of reality television, he truthfully doesn't expect to. he's okay if all he does is make friends and have fun on a free vacation. a few of the girls from the villa are uninterested in exploring connections bc they have their partners already, but the rest of the girls are in the trenches, either heartbroken by a villa boy or overlooked by them. as woozi gets to know everyone, his attention is caught by a girl who's ofc super stunning but more than that, is soooo soft and funny and empathetic and kind, it leaves him sort of breathless… but she’s one of the girls already with a connection. she and her partner aren’t closed off yet and she expresses her interest in woozi, but she also makes it clear she’s really torn about it. she does bring him to the villa, but when she sees how gutted her partner is over it, it throws what she and woozi have going off track. she keeps flip-flopping between the two, and the only person woozi is interested in is her. america definitely ships them bc her OG partner is lowkey an asshole and constantly ogling and talking about other girls, but it’s america… voting can only do so much. so even though they try to vote them onto dates or vote her and her OG partner apart, she ultimately does not get the hint, and she chooses the other guy. woozi’s obviously hurt, but he tries to remind himself he was just here for the plot (he fails). everyone in the villa is sad to see him leave and it’s generally well-known among the islanders that everyone prefers woozi. but aur well. has a jalen type arc where he gets a million followers after exiting the villa LMAO
minghao
♫ intro song: invitation - junny feat. gaeko
another casa boyyyyyy <3 upon being introduced to the villa girls, his connection with one of them is immediate. they can’t stop glancing at each other, smiling, giggling. they basically want the host to stfu and leave so they can go chat already. when the host finally makes her exit, they practically make a beeline to each other but the producers are like uh uh uh! no! group chats first! he’s just giving them his signature minghao glare but that’s not gonna stop him. he shoves another casa boy out of the way to be able to sit next to her. he’ll ask questions and a girl will answer it and he’ll just be like “okay yeah whatever, what about you, though?” and he’ll turn his attention to his girl. lowkey rude? LOL but only in the name of LUV. when they finally do get time together, the sparks are flying and they’re attached at the hip. they’re sharing a bed at night, he’s making her breakfast, he’s holding tea ceremonies for her, she’s showing him how to do yoga, they love all the same music—it’s a match made in heaven!!! … until they get back to the villa. make no mistake, minghao’s partner is single as hell and one of the girls who was constantly overlooked and under-appreciated in the villa, but of course, one of the musty ass men who left her for the first bombshell that caught his attention sees her with minghao and immediately wants her back. NOT ON XU MF MINGHAO’S WATCH LMAO. this man is a menace. he’s making out with her in front of this guy. he’s waxing poetic about her when all the guys are making breakfast. he sees that the dude brought her breakfast before he did and he throws the idiot’s plate out and replaces it with his. in front of him. america is living for his behavior. haters call him possessive, the real ones know he’s just a fucking king!!! and his girl? head over heels in love. not even interested in that other dude, but if minghao wants to keep acting like that, who is she to stop him hehehe. booktok loves him.
mingyu
♫ intro song: chk chk boom - stray kids
kim mingyu starring as himbo islander #2 with a heart of gold. as you know, he comes in with wonwoo hehe. and man, this mf enjoys the attention. he’s chatting everyone up. the girls love him. THE GUYS love him. no one can hate this man bc he’s so funny and ditzy and charismatic. he probably goes a while just bouncing from girl to girl not bc he’s trying to but bc nothing just ever really clicks, and america just keeps saving him even though he’s made zero serious connections, but no one minds bc his vibes are immaculate and he’s very respectful and kind. but ofc, a bombshell comes in and he finally finds his match, and it’s probably bc she’s the only one so far that’s taken him seriously. she’s around for more than just how fun he is; she asks him thought-provoking questions and she sees how emotionally intelligent he is and even though she’s obsessed with the himbo vibes (bc she’s also kinda got the same thing going on), more than anything, she just really likes his personality. he tries to be open and not-at-all jealous about her exploring and talking to other guys, so she gives everyone a chance, but she figures out fairly early on she’s only interested in mingyu. unfortunately, they don’t last too long bc in an elimination where the girls vote a female islander off and the boys vote a male islander off, the girls vote mingyu’s partner off since she’s the newest and they just don’t know her as well. he doesn’t hesitate to leave with her, and ofc, it causes loads of drama bc everyone loves him, and all the guys get mad at all the girls lmfao. they give it a real shot out in the world and it works out. they’re in luv hehe <3
seokmin
♫ intro song: love hangover - jennie feat. dominic fike
same genre as jun in that he has no idea what’s happening on this mf island. his friends applied on his behalf as a joke and he got cast. he was brought to the island as a casa boy, and he’s confused about why they keep calling it the spanish word for house when they’re in fiji but he’s too shy to ask, especially bc everyone seems to have in-depth knowledge about everything that’s happening at all times. like, why does everyone keep talking about america like it’s a person in the room? why are people voting on unimportant things like this? why does everyone keep screaming about texts? he’s so lost and he’s trying so hard to hide it, just going with the flow. he’s talking to whoever wants to pull him for a chat, making people breakfast bc that’s apparently what he’s supposed to do, not swimming bc the girls look at him crazy when he asks if they want to. brought back to the villa in a friendship coupling that ends fairly fast when she finds someone she likes more romantically. jun probably notices how lost he is and explains as best he can (though he’s still a little confused himself), and he’s like, “wait, i can’t fall in love in a month, what???” but all the guys are obv like you’d be surprised!!! so he tries his best, chatting with single girls, trying to be their ideal type, basically kinda forcing connections but it’s clear he’s lowkey miserable about this bc he thought he was just coming here for fun (more like a jersey shore type show than a dating show). he lasts a while bc the islanders keep saving his cutieful, clueless ass, but he surprises everyone when during one recoupling, he pulls himself out of the game and decides he’s going home bc he’s homesick and he just wants to have fun with his homies again without having to eat a girl’s face every other day. he comes home to thousands of new followers and gets tons of sponsorship offers. he accepts one from the dodgers lmao. i honestly see him reconnecting with one of the girls on the show outside the villa and falling for her more naturally in a setting that isn’t essentially a fishbowl for everyone to watch and tap at.
seungkwan
♫ intro song: shoong! - taeyang feat. lisa
OG VILLA BOY! … and resident therapist. he most accurately represents america’s opinion on this show. if the viewers think someone’s shady, seungkwan is the first to clock it on the island. if the viewers find someone annoying, seungkwan makes it clear he does too. basically, the audience now relies on seungkwan to be the voice of reason in the villa. he’s consistently receiving the most votes, both as an individual and as a couple (he’s with another OG villa girl the entire time and honestly, america doesn’t think she serves enough cunt to be with him but they keep voting them best couple bc they love seungkwan so much). she lets that get to her head and becomes insufferable, so he very obviously tunes out of the coupling early on but doesn’t care to formally uncouple. mostly bc this man is billing HOURS talking every other islander through their incredibly suppressed feelings. he’s telling scoups he needs to fucking relax. he’s asking jeonghan if he received enough attention from his parents as a child. he helps hosh unpack his need to please everyone at his own detriment. he’s serving as a shoulder to cry on for all the girls. he’s telling them they deserve better even if some of them are crying about his own friends. you get the idea. he’s having fun for the most part bc hello, it’s still a free vacation, but he is getting increasingly fed up with being surrounded by grown ass people whose frontal lobes refuse to develop. his facial expressions and reactions become the most used memes of the season. so much so, people who don’t watch are using them and just being like “who’s this funny guy and who is torturing him enough to be making faces like this?” salvation comes in the form of a casa girl, who’s been watching his journey on the island and is ready to free him of his therapy shackles. and she does that by… giving him therapy. girly sits him down and is like, “hey, so let’s talk about why you only feel useful and worthy when you’re serving and helping others. why is that?” seungkwan is flabbergasted. and by the end of the convo, he’s crying a little, she knows him so intimately, it’s like they’ve known each other their whole lives, and he does feel liberated as house therapist. he recouples with her and actually starts to enjoy the island the way the others have—he’s making more time for his partner and for himself, he’s being honest when he doesn’t have the mental capacity to listen to ashleigh cry about chad for the nth time, and he’s genuinely falling for his match. unfortunately, their time comes to an end in one of those weirdly voted elimination rounds where no one has any true control of who goes home, and fan (and islander!) favorite seungkwan is booted off the island. a source later reveals that seungkwan got two hours to say goodbye instead of the usual 30 minutes bc everyone was so distraught about him leaving LOL. he gets dozens of invitations for interviews and he and his girl continue to explore each other out in the real world <3
casa boy who is besties with fellow casa boy, seokmin. why? bc they’re both so confused about what’s happening. vernon catches on a lot faster but doesn’t explain to dokey bc he thinks it would just stress him out (and he was obviously correct). he, on the other hand, takes the information well, and goes along with these little chats, getting to know people and kissing a few girls who seem to want it here and there. but he’s also just like ┐(￣ヘ￣ )┌ about everything. he doesn’t realize he’s kind of in a relationship with someone until everyone’s cheering that they “closed things off,” and he’s perplexed about why everyone’s so happy he and his friend agreed they would stop kissing people bc honestly, these kissing games are gross and he’s getting the ick so bad (not at all realizing that he was agreeing to exclusivity with his partner. why does everything have to have a vague term??? if he wanted to be exclusive, he’d ask someone to be his girlfriend. if he wanted to express interest, he would just say it instead of asking someone to go to “soul ties” like WHAT???). so he’s uncomfortably exclusive, trying to figure out how to break it to this girl that he actually doesn’t want to be in a couple at all and that he truthfully had no idea what was happening in the conversation they had about this. as he thinks about it, he’s seen all over the villa by himself, deep in thought as he scribbles things in a notepad. when he finally sits with her, he admits that he doesn’t know what the following means:
closing things off - thought this was deciding i was done dating people here bc the kissing is tiring
soul ties - i don’t believe in soulmates but kinda crazy every single person in here does tho
soul ties is crazy - yeah i agree?
good chat - wym they have good chat? just say you like talking to them
pull for a chat - kinda rude we keep stealing people away. why can’t we all just talk as a group of friends
america - why do we care so much about america
his partner is dumbfounded and suffice to say, she immediately recouples, and while vernon isn’t eliminated, he’s left “vulnerable” (whatever that means), and he decides he’s done! he doesn’t want to be using his brain like this on vacation! one moment, he’s laughing with his friends and drinking, the next, it’s morning and the narrator says, “vernon has left the villa. he’s tired of having to refer to his personal glossary to understand what anyone’s saying.”
dino
♫ intro song: get a guitar - riize
our last OG villa boy! he, unlike many of his friends here on the island, is a love island expert. a love island fanboy even. he’s watched every season of every version, and he’s a true believer in the process (though he doesn’t have much data to support this actually works other than his self-proclaimed parents, leah and miguel but that’s honestly enough). this man is eager from the jump. he zeroes in on the girls that are his type, he’s having good chat, he’s delivering his best banter, he’s making bomb breakfasts, he’s bringing the girl he’s most interested in up to soul ties. he wants to be in love and he’s hustling for it! but unfortunately, he doesn’t realize that maybe he’s a little more in love with the idea of love than he is with anybody he meets or couples up with. still, he convinces himself he’s in love with every partner, then when they choose someone else, he’s heartbroken for a day before he’s bouncing back trying to find the next soulmate. seungkwan is in the trenches trying to calm the mood swings that come with this man’s intense heartbreak cycle (“have you ever stopped to wonder why you have such a desperate need for love?” “what no go away i’m heartbroken.”). even with no true connection, he’s kept around bc he’s wholesome and cute and sosososo fucking funny; he, hosh, and seungkwan are truly the comedic relief in the villa from the start. he’s saved vote after vote bc america is endeared by him. the show has a people’s princess and america’s sweetheart (leah and amaya papaya respectively—argue with the wall), and now they have america’s little brother: dino! unfortunately, he can only go so far without a solid relationship, but he’s probably the person who lasted the longest in love island history while single almost the entire time (he’s booted off the episode before the finale). worry not, this man comes home to many many women who are convinced they’re in love with him. he takes to the fame just fine.

tag list: aka my love island watch partners that asked to be tagged LMAO @se0kied0key @jjknj
hey! could you do a reaction of seventeen with a partner who's afraid of needles? thank youuu
Hey anon! Here you go, I hope you enjoy it :)
tw: mentions of hospitals, needles, operations etc
Seungcheol:
“Y/n! That vaccination appointment you said you needed – have you booked it?”
Upon hearing Seungcheol’s voice boom from the other end of the living room, your heart sinks to the pit of your stomach like a pebble that was thrown into a pond. Looking back at him with guilty eyes, you shake your head and mouth a “no”, only to be met with his scolding stare.
“Y/n-ah, you can't avoid it forever,” he gently chides, approaching you as you direct your gaze to the floor and shift from foot to foot. “What about that nursing course you’ve been so excited about? You need the vaccinations to update your medical records to be eligible for application,” he reminds you.
“I know, it's just…” your voice trails off mid-sentence as you contemplate whether you should tell Seungcheol the truth – your fear of needles was stopping you from getting it done.
You didn't have to decide, because your boyfriend can read you like an open book. “You're scared, aren't you?” he guesses, softening his gaze. As you nod slowly, he reaches out to give your arm a comforting squeeze. “What about this – I book an appointment for you and we go together. I’ll be there to comfort you if you're scared. How does that sound?”
“You know what, having you there might make it a little better,” you answer with a small smile. “At least I won't be alone”.
“Let’s book an appointment now then,” Seungcheol declares, taking the phone from your hands and scrolling through the clinic’s calendar. “There’s an empty slot for three days later, and it happens to be my day off too. Does that work for you?”
“Book it quickly, before I chicken out again,” you declare.
You're rewarded with a gentle flick to the forehead and a “tsk” from Seungcheol as he makes quick work of booking the appointment. “Alright, it's done”.
Jeonghan:
”Yah, y/n,” Jeonghan calls from his seat across from you. Your head snaps up, only to be met with his mischievous grin. “I can see the cogs in your head turning — you better not be thinking of running away”.
You groan, knowing that Jeonghan had seen through you. “Okay, fine, you got me,” you concede. “But even if I tried I wouldn’t be able to”.
”Hey, I know getting the cannula inserted is scary,” Jeonghan acknowledges, empathizing with you. “But think about it. Once this operation is done, your wrist will be able to heal easier and quicker and you can get back to doing everything you love doing,” he adds, attempting to make you see the bright side.
“The first step is always the hardest, isn’t it? I’m only watching the nurse and anaesthetist prepare the needle and all, and I’m already terrified,” you confess, eyes darting left and right tentatively.
“Don’t look at them then,” Jeonghan responds. “Look at me. I’m not going anywhere. I’m staying here until they wheel you into the operating theatre. And when you wake up, I’ll be right beside you too. I’ll be with you all the way,” he reassures, and the corners of your lips turn upwards slightly as gratitude blooms in your heart. “Remember. An ant will bite you, you’ll fall asleep and wake up as if you had 10 shots of soju, and you’ll be a cyborg,” he jokes as you chuckle at the mental image that he had painted for you.
“Thanks, Hannie,” you answer, shooting him a grateful smile. “When you say it like that, it does make it sound better”.
When the anaesthetist inserts the cannula, Jeonghan sings to you throughout the whole process to put you at ease. His honey-sweet voice calms you down and steadies your rapidly-beating heart, and you get the cannula inserted with little pain. “You’ll be okay! I love you,” he calls as the operating staff wheel you into the theatre, and the last thought you have before falling asleep is of his encouraging smile. The operation goes without a hitch, and before you know it you’re out of the operation room again.
Indeed, true to his word, the first thing you see when you wake up is him sitting next to your bed with a shiny, metallic “get well soon” balloon with a cartoon print on it meant for children, a sheet of stickers, and a “bravery certificate” he designed and signed himself.
other members under the cut!
Joshua:
“Do I really have to do this?” you groan as he sits down on a chair in the waiting area, leaving one seat in between the both of you to adhere to social distancing guidelines. Joshua shoots you an empathetic glance, having picked up on your anxiety.
“I know you hate needles and injections, y/n. But this vaccine will help to keep you safe, and allow you to go about daily life easier,” Joshua reasons. “You need to be vaccinated in order to go out and about, because there’s checks for vaccination records everywhere now”.
“It’s kinda useless, though, isn’t it? You get the vaccine, and then you get boosters, and even after all that you can still catch Covid. It’s not like chickenpox or measles vaccines, where you’re basically immune to it after the vaccine,” you argue, still not seeing the point of the vaccine.
“I get what you’re saying, but at least it offers a little bit of immunity, right?” Joshua suggests. He really wanted to be able to hold your hand and comfort you, seeing how scared you were. “Even if you do catch covid, you might get hit less hard at least. I’ll try to follow you in and stay with you so you’ll feel less afraid,” he promises.
Unfortunately, because of social distancing guidelines, the nurses tell you that Joshua has to wait outside for you. Fear rises in you again at the thought of facing it alone and your heart begins pounding at the speed of a galloping horse, until Joshua suggests staying with you via video call, which the nurses agree to. “I know it’s not the same, but I’m still there with you, alright?” he reassures you as you nod weakly and follow the nurses in.
“This is terrifying, Shua. They’re already cleaning my arm and preparing to inject,” you protest, cringing at the feeling of the nurse rubbing your arm with the alcohol.
“It’ll be over soon, y/n. Just breathe with me, okay?” He breathes in and out in an exaggerated manner to ensure you can hear him over the call, trying to get you to copy him. “Good job. You’re doing well,” he exhorts, the loving, gentle warmness in his tone putting you at ease. Before you know it, the needle is in and the injection is given, and you’re walking out of the tent pressing down on a cotton ball plastered to your arm.
The moment you’re home, Joshua pulls you onto the couch for a hug and presses a kiss to your forehead. “It was scary, but you did such a good job. I’m proud of you, y/n”.
Junhui:
”Holy f-“ You almost exclaim, anxiety taking over as you catch sight of the nurse preparing the needle. Junhui claps a hand over your mouth just before the curse word slips out, hurrying to shush you and turn you away from the horrifying sight.
”Calm down, baobei. It’s just a blood test, and it really won’t be as scary as you think,” Junhui blabbers, saying whatever he thought of to try to soothe you.
“‘Just’ a blood test?” you question incredulously, looking at him as if he had grown four more limbs. “That’s the most terrifying thing in the world!”
”Trust me, it’s not that bad,” Junhui reiterates, hoping it would calm you down. “And besides, I think we’d both feel a lot better if we could find out what exactly is wrong with you. This blood test will help us figure that out, and get you the treatment you need,” he coaxes, rubbing up and down your arms to further quell the quivers running through you.
“I guess you’re right. As much as I hate needles, I’d like to quickly recover from whatever I’ve been ill with and get back to normal,” you concede. “If this will help, then let’s do it”.
Junhui squeezes your shoulders again as the nurse walks back over with the needle. “Just hold my hand, okay? I promise it’ll be over and done with in a flash”.
As the nurse rubs your arm with the alcohol swab, you inhale and exhale, trying to steady your breaths as you ready yourself for the inevitable stab. All the while, Junhui is by your side, rubbing the back of your hand gently to try to ease your fear. But as the needle makes its entrance, you cringe slightly, feeling the prick that came with it. “Relax your arm, baobei”, Junhui reminds, having noticed you wincing. “It’ll hurt more if you tense up”.
Following his instructions, you take a deep breath of air and relax your arm — and true enough, it didn’t hurt as badly as you had expected it to. “See? It’s almost over. As soon as the nurse takes the sample needed, it’ll be out and we can go home,” Junhui points out, grinning brightly. “You’re doing amazing, baobei”.
Hoshi:
“Come on, y/n,” Soonyoung says with an encouraging lilt to his voice as he drags you into the waiting area of the clinic. “It’s not as bad as you think, really”.
”I thought all my vaccinations were up to date, and I’d never have to do this again,” you groan, reluctantly plonking yourself in the chair next to him. “Who would’ve thought that I’ve actually missed one booster shot”.
”At least now we know, and you can get the missed shot,” Soonyoung comments, pointing out the positive side of things. “Better now than never, right?”
”I’d rather the latter,” you deadpan, and Soonyoung gently nudges you, clicking his tongue in disapproval. “Look! I’m terrified of needles, I’m terrified of pain, and I’d rather just avoid them altogether if I could”. The words pour out of you at a mile per minute, and a shiver runs down your spine at the mere thought of the needle.
”I know, jagi. But travelling with an updated vaccine record would be much safer for both of us, and we’d be able to enjoy our trip with more peace of mind,” Soonyoung reminds you, gently squeezing your hand as a sign of reassurance and comfort. You squeeze his hand back as he goes on. “Besides, I’ll be there with you. I’ll do anything you need to make the process easier”.
”Could you distract me?” you implore, looking at him with hopeful eyes. “Just anything to take my mind off it”.
”Of course!” Soonyoung replies, puffing up his chest like a proud peacock. “Anything, you say? I can sing silly, dance crazy, make funny faces-“
”That’s true, your face is always funny to look at”.
”Hey!”
Wonwoo:
The fever had been raging in you for three days straight, with no signs of going down. You and Wonwoo had tried everything you knew — from the fever medicines you had in the fridge, to the cool fever patches Wonwoo applied and changed for you religiously, to old wives’ tales of taking shots of apple cider vinegar (which Wonwoo had warned was not going to work), only for everything to fall through. Despite you insisting that all you needed to do was to sleep in bed for a few more days and continue self-medicating, Wonwoo was not convinced and insisted on taking you to a doctor. “That’s all you’ve been doing for the last three days, and it clearly isn’t working. You need a doctor,” he asserted, marching you into the doctor’s office.
“They’re going to be alright. I’ll prescribe them with a course of antibiotics, but because this is quite a serious bacterial infection they’ll need an antibiotic injection too,” the doctor muses, typing down notes on his computer.
As you process his words, you turn paler than a sheet of paper, the flush from the fever completely dissipating in that instant. “Can I perhaps…just take the oral medications?” you suggest, hoping that the doctor will accede to your request.
“It would take a lot longer, because it needs to be metabolized by your liver before being released into your bloodstream. Intravenous medication would act much faster, since it goes directly into your bloodstream to fight off infections. Right now you need something fast-acting, because leaving such a serious bacterial infection to fester could make it worse,” Wonwoo explains, hoping that it would convince you to take the injection. Next to both of you, the doctor nods in agreement with your boyfriend’s words.
You shoot a playful glare at Wonwoo. “Okay, nerd,” you fire back jokingly. “As scary as it is, I guess I’ll take it”.
“Don’t worry. You can hold onto me throughout, okay?” Wonwoo says, taking your hand and gently rubbing circles on the back of it. “It’ll be over before you know it, and then you can go home and sleep, just like you wanted to do”.
You nod weakly, feeling too drained by the illness to do anything else. But as soon as the doctor brings out the needle, adrenaline goes coursing through you again, and you’re back in a panicked anxious state, trying to pull away from the doctor who’s trying to administer the injection. Wonwoo notices, and he’s quickly rubbing your back and whispering sweet nothings into your ear to calm you down. “Just this last step, y/n-ah. It’s gonna be over soon,” he assures. “All you need to do now is breathe in and out slowly”.
Doing as he says, you feel nothing more than a mild pinch as the needle goes in, and the injection is done. “Good job back there, y/n,” Wonwoo praises, shooting you an encouraging smile as you walk out of the clinic with him. “You were really brave. Let’s go home, and then you can get the rest you deserve”.
Woozi:
Your knee bounces up and down nervously as you sit on the chair in the consultation room, awaiting your dreaded fate. Beads of cold sweat appear on your forehead as you try to steel your nerves to face your biggest fear- needles. You thank your lucky stars that at least your boyfriend was off work today, so he had kindly offered to accompany you to the dreaded appointment to get a booster shot.
Next to you, Jihoon stands in silent comfort, gently squeezing your knee to try to calm you down. “I know it’s scary, y/n. I’m scared of needles too, so I know exactly how you feel,” he murmurs, gently rubbing your back.
“How do you do it?” you ask, turning to face him for a brief moment. “How do you cope with injections?”
”It’s been a while since I’ve had to have one. But I remember that once, a nurse taught me a simple trick to make them hurt less,” Jihoon answers, brow furrowed as he tries to recall the advice given to him. “Don’t look at it- it’ll be scarier if you do. I’ll count to three before she inserts the needle, and breathe in as it happens. After that, just keep taking slow deep breaths. Can you do that?” He fleshes out a plan to you, and feeling hopeful, you nod. “Okay good. And just keep in mind, I’m right next to you,” he adds as extra reassurance.
As agreed, he counts down for you when the nurse does the injection. “One, two, three, breathe in. Very good,” he whispers soothingly. “Now just breathe in, and out. In, and out,” he instructs, and you do as he says, surprised at how little pain you felt. ”You’re doing great, y/n”.
“I didn’t feel much of anything,” you remark, still shocked as you make your way home with Jihoon. “That trick really helped”.
”Told you,” Jihoon replies with a smile. “If it works on me, it’ll most definitely work on anybody.
Mingyu:
“Shh, y/n, it's gonna be okay,” Mingyu reassures, stroking your hair in an attempt to comfort you. Sitting in the chair, you take deep breaths in and out, trying to steady your rapidly beating heart.
“I don't know why I even decided to do this, Gyu. I knew I was scared of needles, but God-knows-what possessed me to think I could push past it to donate blood,” you sigh, trying to keep the tremor out of your voice as you lean into Mingyu’s embrace.
“That just shows how kind and brave you are,” Mingyu affirms. “I asked you multiple times if you were sure you wanted this, and you were so intent on stepping out of your comfort zone to contribute to a good cause. That's truly admirable,” he adds, beaming at you encouragingly.
“Thanks Gyu,” you reply, grateful for the reassuring presence of your boyfriend in such a scary moment. Unfortunately you catch sight of the nurse preparing the needle, causing you to flinch and turn away.
Mingyu notices and is immediately back at attempting to comfort you. “Don’t look, y/n. It’ll just make it scarier”.
”Well too late now, isn’t it?” you remark, wincing as you feel the nurse already rubbing your arm with the rubbing alcohol. “I’ve already seen the needle”.
“Unsee it, then”, Mingyu blurts, garbling out whatever nonsensical phrases come to his mind to try to humour you, succeeding as both you and the nurse chuckle. “Hey, you survived the prick earlier for the haemoglobin test. You can do this too,” Mingyu exhorts you. “I’ll be here with you throughout. Just take deep breaths in and out”.
You do as he instructs, inhaling and exhaling deeply as you feel the needle make its way through. “And it’s done!” Hearing Mingyu’s confident announcement, you open your eyes to find the needle in your arm connecting you to a blood bag, hooked up to an IV rack. “You did well, y/n. I’m very proud”.
For the next 10 minutes, Mingyu stays by your side and tells you all kinds of jokes to keep you entertained, until the nurse removes the blood bag and tells you that you’re all set to go. “When we get home, have a good rest while I prepare a steak dinner for us. Eat up and replenish your iron stores,” he says, pressing a kiss to your forehead as he holds your hand, leading you out of the clinic.

“Modu uril chyeodabwAaAa~”
Seokmin’s comically out-of-tune voice rings out through the clinic, a far cry from his usual angelic vocals. His clumsy dance moves add on to the hilarity of the situation as he mimics the infamous “Boys’ Planet” performance of his group’s hit song “Hot”. Across from him, you're laughing like a hyena, a far cry from the anxious state you were in earlier. Even the nurse beside you was trying to hold in her laughter as she readied a vaccine dose.
You had a vaccination appointment for today, but because you were so deathly afraid of needles and injections, you had almost backed out of it completely. Seokmin, knowing this, volunteered to come with you to the appointment to hopefully ease your nerves and provide some comfort. “I’ll be there to entertain and distract you,” he promised. “You’ll be so amused, you won’t feel a thing”.
“Are you sure? As embarrassing as it sounds- I’ve cried at every single injection ever since I was a kid,” you confessed, scratching your head sheepishly.
”Y/n, it’s not embarrassing,” Seokmin responded, wrapping you in a warm embrace. “Everyone has their own fears and it’s perfectly normal. Hey, I still scream at the sight of bugs!” He brought up his own fear, hoping that it would make you feel less ashamed. “Jagi-ah, don’t worry. I promise I will make this the first time you ever walk out of an injection laughing instead of crying”.
He was right. “BaMi EoMnEuN nAt HaNeUrEuN bUlGeUnSaEk” the horrible singing and wacky dancing continues as you double over in laughter, abs burning from the exertion. Who knew you’d end up enjoying your vaccination appointment so much? You continue chortling away, thoroughly amused by the antics of your boyfriend. So much so that, you fail to notice the needle making its entrance and exit and the medication going through your veins.
“And you’re done! Just press on the injection site for about two to three minutes,” the nurse says, interrupting Seokmin’s clown show as she secures a cotton ball over the injection site with a plaster.
“Wait, that’s all? It’s over?” you exclaim, mouth agape in shock.
“You’ve got a very good boyfriend. He did such an amazing job at entertaining you, you didn’t even feel a thing,” the nurse chuckles, gesturing at a beaming Seokmin.
Linking your arm with his, you prepare to leave the clinic. “He’s the best,” you reply with a confident smile.
Minghao:
”I’ll never understand you, y/n,” Minghao splutters, looking at you incredulously. “You can stay calm after getting bitten by a wild monkey, but you freak out over a tiny needle?”
Your hiking date in the nature reserve had taken a nasty turn when a macaque, apparently after the snacks in your bag, turned aggressive and bit you in the leg. By some miraculous power you were able to stay calm, stumbling away from the situation while reassuring concerned passersby that you would be alright. Minghao’s meditation efforts from the morning must have paid off, as he too kept a cool head and called for a Grab to take you to the Accident and Emergency department of the nearest hospital. Which is how you end up sitting in a consultation room, bandage wrapped snugly around your ankle to keep the wound dressing in place, and awaiting an injection.
“It's not tiny, have you seen the size of that thing?!” you argue, eyes going wide in fear as you point at the terrifying piece of equipment.
“It's tiny compared to the jaws of whatever beast took a bite out of you earlier!” Minghao insists as he shushes you and turns you away from the nurse who's preparing the syringe.
“Okay, but the doctor has already cleaned and dressed the wound, surely that's enough to stave off infections? Why do I still need an injection?” you question, gesturing wildly in confusion and fright. “Not even just one, multiple jabs over the next few weeks”.
“The disinfectant will keep bacterial infections of the wound at bay, yes, but it's not enough to prevent viral infections that could have already been transmitted into your bloodstream through the bite,” Minghao explains, squeezing your arm gently to try to comfort you. “All these vaccines will do the job for you”.
“Why can't I just take medication orally then?” you argue, still not understanding why you needed an injection of all things.
“It’s too slow for such dangerous viral infections,” Minghao clarifies.
You sigh, still shaking slightly in fear. “I'd rather not have the injection, if I can help it”.
“So you think catching tetanus or rabies is a favourable alternative?” Minghao counters, an eyebrow arching upwards as he stares at you.
“No! But like- okay, fine, guess I’ll take the injections,” you huff, slumping over dejectedly. “When’s the needle coming?”
“It's already been in and out of you, dummy. The whole time you were arguing with me, the nurse came, administered the jab, and left,” Minghao snorts.
“Oh”.
Seungkwan:
Sniffling, you cling to Seungkwan’s arm with one hand as you ready the other for the dreaded jab. Whether you were sniffling because of your horrible flu, or because you were sobbing in fright, you will never know. Adding on to the horrible sensation, embarrassment tinted your cheeks as you were well aware that you were bawling your eyes out even before the actual ordeal had begun, though you were not a child anymore.
“Oh no, y/n,” Seungkwan murmurs in empathy as he quickly sweeps you into a hug, stroking your hair and whispering sweet nothings to you. “You must be really scared”.
Too afraid to say anything else, you merely nod your head in response. “Everything will be alright, okay? I know it seems like a lot, but you’ll be really proud of yourself for getting through this,” he exhorts, squeezing your shoulders gently and leaving a kiss on the top of your head. “Is there anything I can do for you? To make you feel less afraid?” He asks, sincerity in his gaze as he lowers himself to look at you.
“Distract me. Do something, anything to make this less scary,” you sob.
”Alright then. What about I sing to you?” He suggests.
You mull over his proposition for a moment. “That could work,” you reply, still reeling from the sheer amount of cortisol running through your system.
”Alright then. Just breathe for now, okay?” Seungkwan keeps you in his hold, continuing to stroke your hair and whisper reassurances to you.
When the dreaded moment finally arrives, Seungkwan holds your hand, singing “Candy” softly in his usual heavenly voice. As you take in the beautiful notes, you feel yourself calm down, your pulse steadying and your breathing becoming less erratic. The feel of his hand in yours makes the situation better too, knowing that you weren’t alone in your scary predicament. You squeeze his hand back in a show of appreciation to him.
Seungkwan is still holding your hand as you exit the clinic and make your way home. “It was scary, but you sat through it. I’m so proud of you”. He encourages you, kissing you on the cheek again as he promises lots of cuddles when you get back home.
Vernon:
The look of horror that had crossed Vernon's face when he saw the hues of green and yellow oozing from your wounded knee was unmistakable, and before you knew it you found yourself surrounded by the smell of antiseptic and sitting in a consultation room. “We’ve been cleaning it for weeks, and it somehow looks even worse now,” Vernon explains when you ask why he had rushed you to the nearest doctor for something so seemingly trivial. “I know it seems like no big deal, but better safe than sorry”.
The doctor grimaces as she checks your temperature and casts another worried look at the injury. “38.2. You're lucky you came, because the infection is starting to get really bad,” she says, disposing of the cover of the ear thermometer in a swift motion. “I’ll prescribe you with some medication and an antibiotic cream, but you’ll also need an injection of antibiotics”.
Your blood runs cold at the words, and Vernon seems to notice because his hands are immediately rubbing up and down your shoulders in silent comfort. As the doctor motions to her nurse to begin preparing the apparatus, he turns you away from their direction before you can see anything. “God, I really wasn't prepared for an injection today,” you groan.
“Hey, don't worry, it’ll be over before you know it,” Vernon states matter-of-factly, hoping the certainty in his voice would help to ground you and calm you a little. “And besides, I’m here with you,” he reminds you, deep voice soothing you like hot cocoa on a stormy winter day.
“You're right,” you reply, turning back to face him with a smile. “And like you said- better safe than sorry. I wouldn't want the infection to worsen,” you acknowledge, now feeling fully ready to accept the injection.
Vernon says nothing, but grunts in understanding as he continues rubbing your shoulders. As the nurse approaches with the needle, you close your eyes and prepare for the jab. “Just keep breathing”, Vernon instructs, hand remaining on yours. Doing as he says, you feel nothing more than an ant’s bite and in a flash, the process is over.
“Don't forget to apply the cream and take the medicines at home,” Vernon reminds you as you hobble out of the clinic. One of his arms is slung around your waist and the other is holding your hand as you make your way back to the car. “I will, don't worry,” you reply. “And thanks for looking out for and caring for me,” you add, gratitude filling your heart as you slip into the passenger seat.
“Anything for you, y/n”.
Dino:
“Y/n, please. Just this one time, you need it to get better,” Dino pleads. Fear, desperation and worry are written all over his face at once. “You really really need this surgery- or else I don't want to think about what could happen to you”.
Weakly, you lift your head to meet his gaze, still holding on to your stomach due to the immense stabbing pain you felt there. The same pain that had caused you to collapse onto the floor, a shriek of anguish ripping from your throat just an hour earlier, and sent Dino speed dialing an ambulance and rushing you to A&E quicker than the speed of light. There, the doctor had diagnosed you with appendicitis and sent you for an emergency operation to get the aggravating organ removed.
However, one obstacle stood in the way- your deathly fear of needles. Despite being in a tremendous amount of pain already, you couldn't handle the thought of having to get the cannula inserted. Still looking up at Dino, you shake your head ever so slightly. “I can't, Dino, I-I’m scared,” you stammer, with what little strength you have left.
“This could save your life, y/n,” Dino reasons in a shaky voice, hoping to break through the tidal waves of fear and anxiety crashing over you in the moment with plain, simple logic. “I’ll hold your hand throughout, until you go for the surgery. And when you wake up I’ll be right here waiting for you. So please- just this once, okay? You’ll not need another jab for a really long time after”.
With the urgency and potentially life-threatening circumstances looming over you, you take a shaky breath and slip your hand into his, seeing that the doctor was here with the needle. Closing your eyes, you accept the slight prick and realize that it was nothing, at least compared to the excruciating pain you were already in. But through all the fear, pain and anxiety, Dino’s hand never left yours, his touch grounding you and reminding you that even in such scary circumstances, everything would be okay. You open your eyes and find him looking back at you with a small smile, as if to reassure you of the same thing. “It’ll be alright, jagi. I’ll see you when you're done, and I love you”. He finishes, pressing a quick kiss to the back of your hand. You flash a quick smile at him, waving feebly as the medical team prepares to wheel you into the operating theatre.
When you awake, you're greeted with the sight of Dino’s relieved face. “Y/n! You're done!” He exclaims as your eyelids flutter open and you sit up groggily, the effect of the anaesthesia still fresh. Noticing your apparent drowsiness, he gently pushes you back down and beckons you to rest. “It's okay. Now you should rest. Take all the time you need here, and when the doctors clear you for discharge we can go home together,” he murmurs, and you drift back to sleep with a smile, feeling his fingers gently run through your hair.
->first time meeting the boyfriend of their teenage daughter (Part 1)
-> d/b/n visits them at home to eat dinner together
Seungcheol
"... took him long enough"
he was well aware of this boy who dated his daughter for several weeks now
but having literally no information about d/b/n nearly killed him
if it wasn't for his s/o Seungcheol would have already hired an private investigator
he's very protective over his daughter
one wrong move and the boy can say his prayers
wouldn't be easy to impress either
wears a poker face throughout the whole dinner
will observe d/b/n closely
to his daughter's despair Seungcheol would interrogate the boy without mercy
making very clear whose daughter he is dating
and that breaking her heart was no option if he treasures his life
would give his daughter his honest first impression of d/b/n after he leaves
Seungcheol would try to say good things about d/b/n -if there was anything that he saw as a positive character trait-, but would not hesitate to tell his daughter about the things he views as problematic about d/b/n
"And it's not only me who thinks that way... Kkuma could also sense d/b/n bad vibes!"
wants no "gangster boyfriend" to break his precious daughter's heart
Jeonghan
"So she's that age now...huh"
having a younger sister he should have seen such a situation coming
but why so soon??
knowing how significant the first relationship can be for a teenager, he tries to not scare the boy away
would offer d/b/n a weak smile and introduce himself
his s/o would be the one to ask d/b/n some questions and start a conversation now and then
while Jeonghan would observe the boy infront of him quietly
how is d/b/n treating my daughter?
is he politely to s/o?
what does these answers tell me about him?
how is his body language?
"You like Monsta X?"
it was the first time Jeonghan spoke in a while this evening
"Uhm.. Who?"
"You don't know this K-Pop Group?..... I see, so you´re that kind of guy....Interesting"
he then would continue eating
knowing very well that d/b/n would be so confused now
nobody said anything about not messing with the boy a bit
would ask his daughter later in the evening if she was pleased with how the evening went
their conversation would be filled with honesty
Jeonghan would carefully listen to his daughter´s impression of the evening
"So... do you like him?"
" He seems... decent"
"Dad!? Do you just dislike him because he doesn't know the K-Pop Group Monsta X ?"
"Nooo! ...It´s more because I'm not sure if I will ever think that someone is good enough for you"
his daughter rolls her eyes while smiling
"But now that I'm thinking about it... Not knowing Monsta X... How did you manage to find such a person?"
"........I was honestly shocked too Dad !"
Which member(s) should I do next?
Thank you for reading it <3
Omg!! I saw you wrote for seventeen so i gotta ask for a minghao x spiritual black reader & like them just drinking tea tgt, meditating, going on nature walks etc
Xu Minghao || Spiritual reader
Warning • none
Genres • fluff
Pairing • Minghao x Black Reader
a/n: I wrote this 5 in the morning so sorry if it's all over the place 😀
for Minghao meeting you was like meeting a soulmate.
When he saw you in the herbal shop picking our tea leaves he's swore he fell in love.
You're the one that made the first move...well not really you thought he worked their and asked him what's the best combination of tea to relax and get rid of insomnia.
Through that conversation he found the courage to ask for your number.
Skip to the dating part (I'm a little lazy)
Anyways! you two were the it couple.
Everyone loved you! You both gave off such calming and relaxing auras
You were both so accepting and opened minded to anything or anyone you came across.
But it was such a shock to people to find out you two were such an introverted couple.
You just like to stay to yourself and your two wonderful kids.
Yes, you two are parents! you owned two beautiful cats. 😁
A Bombay cat and an American shorthair.
You took those rascals everywhere, especially when you went on your weekly nature walks.
Going on nature walks were more your thing and Minghao just grew to love it.
You loved to walk around and find new nature trails to explore almost every week
And you also went hiking just to find good meditating spots.
“Ooh, hao look this spot right here! It's perfect” you beamed setting down your yoga mat. He loved when you got overly excited about nature.
The spot was perfect it was on top of a flat rock near a beautiful waterfall.
Meditating and listening to nature has to be your favorite thing to do with him, besides reading.
But on days you two couldn't go walking due to the weather or just not enough time you'd stay home and meditate in your greenhouse
You both didn't spend every second together! You both loved your alone time.
You could be reading in your room and Minghao just waltz in with a hot cup of tea and sits it right besides leaving a sweet kiss on your forehead.
“Here baby it’ll calm your headache”
“Thank you baby” you smiled closing the book to pick up your cup.
a/n: kind of in my yearning hours mayhaps.. also the posting drought is over !
you came home after a long day, one of those days where you felt like you were on autopilot. the hours passed terribly slow but fast at the same time. it didn’t make sense but you were glad to be home.
you were glad to settle into bed after a simple dinner and you were glad that your boyfriend’s strong arms held you so lovingly. your head rested on his strong chest while your arm was draped across his middle.
his arm that was on the same side of you was folded so he could tangle his fingers in your hair, scrunching together here and there to soothe your scalp.
“you’re quieter than usual today” he notes.
you plant your chin on his chest to look at him.
“am i?”
another finger scrunch into your hair. “mhm, you’ve had a day, haven’t you?”
you sighed, laying your head back down, your ear was right on top of his heart so you could hear the steady rhythm of it. “i don’t even know how i got through it, but it was hard.”
his other arm comes to wrap around you, now tracing lines up and down your back. “but you did get through it, ‘cuz my baby is so tough.”
“the best part was coming home to you,” you replied, burying your face in his chest to inhale his scent.
“come here” he encouraged, pulling you up gently so your head could rest on his bicep instead. this way, he could look at your face better.
he pushed your hair back from your face and this gesture made you close your eyes in relaxation.
“let’s hope tomorrow’s better, hm?” he said, placing a kiss to your cheek. “don’t want my baby to have another hard day.”
you hummed in agreement, nuzzling even closer to him. “love you, you know.”
