[SPEAKER_03]: Consequence podcast network.
[SPEAKER_03]: Borahae, iconic army!
[SPEAKER_03]: Borahae!
[SPEAKER_03]: Oh my gosh!
[SPEAKER_03]: We have so much to talk about as far as the content that BTS is absolutely feeding us, starting with the O-T-Seven Weaver's Live on the Beach.
[SPEAKER_03]: Oh my god, this was amazing.
[SPEAKER_03]: They took a stroll on the beach.
[SPEAKER_03]: Looked like they were coming like from the ocean up towards the edge of the sand.
[SPEAKER_03]: And Jungkook for the majority of it was holding the camera.
[SPEAKER_03]: But we feel like this not only is it full of very cute moments and just seeing them all together.
[SPEAKER_03]: It also feels like it's chock-full of spoilers throughout the whole thing.
[SPEAKER_03]: Like it feels very purposeful.
[SPEAKER_03]: One thing I want to talk about is right at the beginning, Taehyung and Jen ridiculous.
[SPEAKER_03]: And meet all over each other.
[SPEAKER_03]: Taehyung immediately is grabbing Jen and pulling him into a hug, hugging him, like not letting him go.
[SPEAKER_03]: And Jen keeps saying hello.
[SPEAKER_03]: Hello, even like three minutes into the live, he's still just keeps saying hello.
[SPEAKER_03]: And that like seem excited type of voice.
[SPEAKER_03]: So.
[SPEAKER_00]: And he knows that the camera is rolling.
[SPEAKER_00]: He knows that it's live, that the weaver's live is started.
[SPEAKER_00]: Jungkook had already made a comment that people were commenting, and since the comments were popping up, they knew that people were watching.
[SPEAKER_00]: I think Taehyung even talked about like the live potentially like blowing up or like failing of that sort.
[SPEAKER_00]: So Jin is very much aware that the video is going and that it's live, but he continues to say hello.
[SPEAKER_00]: And there is something about him, like it seems like maybe potentially a spoiler, especially because of the way that Taehyung reacts, like Taehyung turning around.
[SPEAKER_00]: He's just as that member who seems to not be able to keep it together.
[SPEAKER_00]: Also, he, it seemed like he was potentially a spoiler too for the tour in twenty twenty six.
[SPEAKER_00]: and they're last O.T.
[SPEAKER_00]: seven live, and they were all sitting on the couch.
[SPEAKER_00]: So it just seems like it would be Taehyung who would have to go and reach out.
[SPEAKER_00]: Touch Jen and be like, oh my God, yeah.
[SPEAKER_03]: He could be like the designated spoiler, you know, the source of spoils.
[SPEAKER_03]: And it seemed like, it made me think maybe Jen is like hinting at a song title or an album title, like how cool would it be to have like an album simply called Hello after all this time?
[SPEAKER_03]: I mean, it's been so long since we, it'll be like six years since we've gotten an album from that by the time they come back.
[SPEAKER_03]: And then also, I can't help but blah, blah, blah.
[SPEAKER_03]: I can't help but to think of because you know, I want HR by age part three, so bad, is Tae Young holding on to Jin so much, just maybe think of the song, hold me tight.
[SPEAKER_00]: And so clever, I had not thought of that.
[SPEAKER_03]: I just wonder if that's something to do with it, you know, because it was obnoxious.
[SPEAKER_03]: It was for the whole like first entire half of the live and they even made a specific shot of just Jin and Taehyung, like in Taehyung, like grabbing him and squeezing him, holding him tight literally.
[SPEAKER_00]: Sunset behind them.
[SPEAKER_00]: It's giving very much age where we age on the beach.
[SPEAKER_00]: All the members together having fun.
[SPEAKER_00]: It's sunset.
[SPEAKER_00]: The sunset colors just remind me of each way we age part one and just the the color coding on that album.
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_00]: And Tagen just the eldest young being tackled by a too young I can't like it really feels very much like age where we age.
[SPEAKER_00]: I think there is the truck.
[SPEAKER_00]: That's where it's the truck.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's like it needs to be parked on the beach right here.
[SPEAKER_03]: They were probably like walking to the truck, LOL.
[SPEAKER_03]: Taehyung also, both him and Jungkook are wearing a gray hoodie, but Taehyung's specific kind of hoodie is so reminiscent of what he was wearing in the music video where he's jumping off the scaffolding in a trauma age.
[SPEAKER_03]: It just looks like it could be the same hoodie.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's just given that.
[SPEAKER_00]: Absolutely.
[SPEAKER_00]: It's the same.
[SPEAKER_03]: Jimmins wearing a towel.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's not the same color of the striping that he was wearing in string day, but spring break spring day.
[SPEAKER_03]: Oh my god, I can't talk today.
[SPEAKER_03]: Take two middle schoolers all day.
[SPEAKER_03]: But he had like has stripes on.
[SPEAKER_03]: I just have to point out Yungi and his typical all his black so cute.
[SPEAKER_00]: He's in black head to toe.
[SPEAKER_03]: would be remiss if I didn't mention like all of army is commenting like hey there's my husband and rm said what's up wife amazing he says I think like miss you my wife feeding into our delusions
[SPEAKER_03]: And then members also responding, oh God, oh God, yeah.
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, just that number is so comfortably and loudly said that, like, young into it.
[SPEAKER_03]: He was proud, you know?
[SPEAKER_03]: He was.
[SPEAKER_03]: He seems like he's in a really good place.
[SPEAKER_03]: All the members do.
[SPEAKER_03]: At one point, Tagang, Jungkook and Jimin specifically talk about spoilers and being like strategic on how they're going to say spoilers or when they're going to say it, they were like, let's do it when it gets like less chaotic on this live, which is like when is it going to be less chaotic?
[SPEAKER_00]: But just when they know more of what's happening with the album too.
[SPEAKER_03]: That's true, when they have more specifics, but it also just seems like they're excited and they want to share.
[SPEAKER_03]: And it's only thing that's like a quote unquote spoiler now, maybe isn't even going to come into fruition later, but it at least gets us thinking, you know, one of the other things that I think Taehyung said to John Guck was that like, oh, it's five minutes to sunset.
[SPEAKER_03]: And that was like that felt like maybe a potential spoiler of because it was a specific phrase.
[SPEAKER_00]: It was a specific phrase and John Cook said something in response kind of like, I get what you're saying, I get what you mean.
[SPEAKER_00]: And I don't know if that was potential a little bit of a spoiler.
[SPEAKER_00]: I love that it was very much the mock nays here at the end of the live that they seem like they were all chatting and trying to like give a spoiler to some degree.
[SPEAKER_00]: And bickering almost about it, like, are you being a little bit about what to say, what not to say, and Jen coming in and saying, don't fight, don't fight, don't fight, like, so bickering.
[SPEAKER_00]: And they just become very playful with each other and brush it off or whatnot.
[SPEAKER_00]: One more thing that I want to say about this live that is just so iconic that you see all over.
[SPEAKER_00]: Armies, twitters, and Instagrams is whenever Taeyang takes Jungkook's phone, Taeyang, I think is moving the camera real quickly, and so the feed cannot keep up, so it's just glitching.
[SPEAKER_00]: We're not hearing some of the audio, some of the screen is just staying still and frozen, and there are these two super iconic shots, one of a real close-up shot of Jungie's face, where he's serving bread,
[SPEAKER_00]: like his cheeks are like real chubby and he's got just like a closed lip smile and he looks adorable and his beanie and then right after that it's Jay Hope and his eyes are like right up to the camera eyebrows like really elevated and lifted and he just looks super goofy and that's still too and I just love the soap moments that you get here because both of them were a little bit more quiet in this live
[SPEAKER_00]: Namjoon felt very much like the leader.
[SPEAKER_00]: Like he was talking a lot about like working in the studio or working on an album.
[SPEAKER_00]: He kind of just shared like we're cooking.
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_03]: I love it.
[SPEAKER_03]: I love that energy and that confidence.
[SPEAKER_03]: Like, Hell yeah.
[SPEAKER_03]: I came up to here.
[SPEAKER_03]: What they're doing.
[SPEAKER_03]: One other thing that we should mention, too, is that when they were handing the camera over Bethany, you pointed this out to me.
[SPEAKER_03]: Like when Jungkook was handing the camera off to Taehyung, you can see like other feet on the ground right next to them.
[SPEAKER_03]: And people have pointed out online that they think that that's like a production crew film crew along with them.
[SPEAKER_03]: because they're probably on the beach filming some kind of other extra behind-the-scenes content that's gonna come out like as a Bangtan bomb later or something like that.
[SPEAKER_03]: But yeah, I thought that that was interesting and also very probable for sure.
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, yeah.
[SPEAKER_00]: It was only like a seven, forty-five minute or seven minute, forty-five second live, but there was so much packed into it.
[SPEAKER_00]: And we're just so grateful to see all of them together in one video stream.
[SPEAKER_00]: It's just
[SPEAKER_00]: So where, and it's feel so good to have that back and feel like a home, watching them all together.
[SPEAKER_00]: It's just absolutely the best.
[SPEAKER_00]: And then after this, Jay Hope also has been giving us so much on his Instagram with his post and his story, we know that they're for sure in the studio because he's literally posting pictures of Taeyang and Jungkook in the studio actively recording.
[SPEAKER_00]: So it's just good to know that they're all together working and
[SPEAKER_00]: Rediscovering music again together and just I don't know.
[SPEAKER_00]: It's wonderful.
[SPEAKER_00]: I agree.
[SPEAKER_03]: I have it so much and also like, I mean, they all look so good in these photos that he's posting on Instagram.
[SPEAKER_03]: Like, thank you.
[SPEAKER_03]: Junkhoesog for for sharing.
[SPEAKER_03]: Like, seriously, that one of him on the beach, the selfie in the white tank top is insane.
[SPEAKER_03]: Like, like, burn it on my cornea's.
[SPEAKER_03]: Oh, he's gorgeous.
[SPEAKER_03]: Love it so much.
[SPEAKER_03]: Another thing that we need to talk about is the BTS happy meal.
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm freaking pumped about this.
[SPEAKER_03]: I already told Jeremy, I was like, I told him all about it.
[SPEAKER_03]: He was like, so we're going to eat a lot of McDonald's in September.
[SPEAKER_03]: And I was like, yes, so many happy meals.
[SPEAKER_03]: I don't know if they will like, if I go in there and I just say can I buy the toys individually separate from the meal or if I have to get the meal because I will buy the toys.
[SPEAKER_03]: But I need to, I want to like go inside and order.
[SPEAKER_03]: Let me tell you guys about this, this collab before I get to into it.
[SPEAKER_03]: So this is McDonald's and tiny, tiny, tiny, tiny happy meal collab.
[SPEAKER_03]: So each Happy Mill comes with one of the toys inspired by BTS.
[SPEAKER_03]: They have already had Happy Mill toys for BT-Twenty-One in twenty-twenty-three, but they were only available in select Asian countries.
[SPEAKER_03]: So this is launching in the US market for us this time.
[SPEAKER_03]: You guys might remember the BTS meal in twenty-twenty-one.
[SPEAKER_03]: I still have my like army and BTS branded bag from that with the purple logos all over it and the two sauces they had two Korean inspired dipping sauce a sweet chili and cagin.
[SPEAKER_03]: I still have those on like my BTS shrine.
[SPEAKER_03]: But it was like the group signature order a ten piece chicken nuggets medium fries medium coke and then the dipping sauces.
[SPEAKER_03]: So they've had some history with McDonald's, but this will be two different sets of tiny tan toys.
[SPEAKER_03]: One launching earlier in the month on September third, and then the second one launching later in the month on the twenty-third.
[SPEAKER_03]: So the first one is the throwback edition coming out September third.
[SPEAKER_03]: And I can't, I'm struggling to like date when these outfits are supposed to be from since they're throwback.
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I am too.
[SPEAKER_03]: The second one, the encore edition that comes out the twenty-third, these ones are so clearly mic drop, they're like, and perfectly, and iconically, mic drop.
[SPEAKER_03]: Either way, I'm either buying fourteen happy meals in the month of September.
[SPEAKER_03]: And asking specifically, I'm going to go inside an order and be like, I need one of each toy.
[SPEAKER_03]: Or I'm going to see if they will just sell me the toys because I will be getting these.
[SPEAKER_03]: I love McDonald's.
[SPEAKER_03]: I am like, I was raised on McDonald's.
[SPEAKER_03]: So I'm unabashedly a fan and I'm a BTS.
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, that's a smart idea and worth a shot to just go in there and see if you can buy all the figurines just because like they might like it.
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes.
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_00]: When the BTS meal came out, I ate a ridiculous amount of chicken nuggets to the point that I was getting sick.
[SPEAKER_00]: Like you're a vegetarian.
[SPEAKER_00]: I know.
[SPEAKER_00]: And I was eating so many chicken nuggets because I had to keep getting the meal.
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_00]: I just had to.
[SPEAKER_03]: So if I'm having to eat like over fourteen happy meals over a span of like a couple weeks like I'm gonna be sick sick me too that's what I'm thinking but thankfully like some of them are kind of smaller like you could just get just a four piece nugget or something with like your apple dippers or whatever
[SPEAKER_03]: But yeah, the cool thing about this meal, this BTS happy meal, it'll be in the US and then almost seventy other countries.
[SPEAKER_03]: So I see countries throughout Central and South America.
[SPEAKER_03]: I see countries in Europe, Australia, all over the place.
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, all over the world.
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_03]: Like tons of countries.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, I mean tons of countries.
[SPEAKER_03]: So that's exciting to see.
[SPEAKER_03]: I will definitely
[SPEAKER_03]: be taking part.
[SPEAKER_03]: You can also, after you get your happy meal, visit happymail.com and scan the code on the box to play a tiny, tan power up game, which will feature the tiny, tan characters cheering you on while you sing your heart out to favorite BTS tunes, which sounds adorable.
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, sounds cute.
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_00]: But super looking forward to seeing this BTS happy meal.
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm for sure going to be going to McDonald's and getting all of it.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, they're probably like planning on a bunch of kids getting it and instead it's gonna be like a bunch of thirty-year-old.
[SPEAKER_03]: Oh, on adults.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's gonna be mostly adults.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_03]: Absolutely.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_03]: They're gonna sell out.
[SPEAKER_03]: Like, I already, I've been McDonald's nearby and I've like pointed it out to Jeremy.
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm like, that's where we're going.
[SPEAKER_03]: Except temperature.
[SPEAKER_03]: We're going.
[SPEAKER_00]: I've got two McDonald's within driving distance right by my house.
[SPEAKER_00]: There you go.
[SPEAKER_00]: Absolutely.
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, yeah.
[SPEAKER_00]: Well anyways, lots of BTS content that we just covered here at the beginning of our episode, but we are actually here for the fanfic files.
[SPEAKER_00]: So stay tuned for that.
[SPEAKER_03]: Welcome back where you're hosts on Kayla.
[SPEAKER_00]: And I'm Bethany and the sustaining BTS.
[SPEAKER_00]: Your favorite informative fan girl podcast.
[SPEAKER_00]: Alright, today we're going to hang out for about an hour and we are going to be sharing some incredible fanficks.
[SPEAKER_00]: If you were new to the fanfic file series, this is where Kayla and I both pick out a fanfic to read aloud here on the podcast for you guys.
[SPEAKER_00]: These were written by other incredible armies.
[SPEAKER_00]: We'll cite them.
[SPEAKER_00]: Let you know, give me the link so you can go and read them or check out some of their other works.
[SPEAKER_00]: But today's theme is the beach because we are so inspired by this recent OT-Seven V live, or we verse live.
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm never going to say we verse live.
[SPEAKER_00]: We say we live.
[SPEAKER_00]: But yeah, it's so super excited to be sharing some of these great stories with you guys.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, before we get into it, we just want to say things iconic so much for being here and for all of your support.
[SPEAKER_03]: If you'd like to support us any more any further, you can join our Patreon at patreon.com slash standing BTS.
[SPEAKER_00]: Thanks for being here for all of your support and of course for listening.
[SPEAKER_03]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_03]: So I actually have two fanficks today.
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm gonna sandwich them between Bethany's because my first one is super, super short.
[SPEAKER_03]: And this first one is actually like what inspired me to look for any of the fanficks.
[SPEAKER_03]: And really it was because of Jay Hope's Instagram posts that we have been talking about.
[SPEAKER_03]: That one video in his post of Jimin and Tae-young playing in the water,
[SPEAKER_03]: I was just dying over it.
[SPEAKER_03]: I needed Vemen.
[SPEAKER_03]: I needed Beach and this is what I found.
[SPEAKER_03]: This is called Ocean Waves by Goblin Child's Sixty Nine, which I think is the best fanfic author name I've ever heard of.
[SPEAKER_03]: But the summary that they gave was Jim and Tae Young's moment in the waves, as filmed by presumably Hoseok.
[SPEAKER_03]: So this fanfic was just published on August nineteenth in reaction to the Instagram posts.
[SPEAKER_03]: And I want to shout them out because they have a series going like this is part one of moments of BTS and L.A.
[SPEAKER_03]: So as BTS continues to like put out Instagram posts and little weverse lives of their time in L.A.
[SPEAKER_03]: I think this author, Goblin Child's Sixty Nine is gonna keep writing little one shots like about them, which I love.
[SPEAKER_00]: That's amazing.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, I have a second one right now that I think is Tagen it might be about the moments that we were talking about in the weaver's live But I didn't get a moment to read that one yet, but I'll go ahead and dive into this one.
[SPEAKER_03]: This is super short and sweet
[SPEAKER_03]: He'll be young, hold my phone, Jimin asks, taking his phone out of the pocket of his swim trunks.
[SPEAKER_03]: I want to swim.
[SPEAKER_03]: House doc takes it without question, but looks at the ocean cautiously.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's cold, you know.
[SPEAKER_03]: He looks down at Jimin's clothes.
[SPEAKER_03]: Only the pair of swim trunks not a wet suit as would be proper for waters like these.
[SPEAKER_03]: You'll freeze your ass off.
[SPEAKER_03]: For other voices, hum their assent, but Jimin doesn't care.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's a perfect day, the band and their crew on the beach, and since they've wrapped up filming, he might as well waste whatever time they have left here goofing off.
[SPEAKER_03]: Jimin shrugs, life is short, he says, looking to Taehyung, where he stands beside him.
[SPEAKER_03]: You come in?
[SPEAKER_03]: Taehyung, as the only other person there dressed to swim, nods, let's do it.
[SPEAKER_03]: He shucks off his shirt, tossing it over to a waiting soaked gin, whom he offers a wink before he takes humans hand, and the two of them run towards the waves.
[SPEAKER_03]: I just have to stop already, because in the weaver's life, like Jim in, he has a towel around him.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's like he's just been in the water.
[SPEAKER_03]: Taehyung is shirtless under the zipped up like hoodie that he's wearing.
[SPEAKER_03]: Like his hair is wet.
[SPEAKER_03]: Like this is right after that.
[SPEAKER_03]: I just love that.
[SPEAKER_03]: The sand is rough beneath his feet and he nearly stumbles trying to avoid a sea shell where it pokes out of the ground threatening to stab his souls.
[SPEAKER_03]: He laughs and grabbing hold of Taehyung's hand as they splash into the sea and it's just as cold as promised.
[SPEAKER_03]: Shrieks have laughed or leave him.
[SPEAKER_03]: Jim and his other hand coming up
[SPEAKER_03]: to wrap around his chest as if to shield himself, though he knows resistance is futile.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's cold!
[SPEAKER_03]: Taeyeon giggles pulling him in deeper as ways we can distract at their bodies.
[SPEAKER_03]: Come on, let's go deeper.
[SPEAKER_03]: He says, sputtering as a wave drives ocean water right into his face.
[SPEAKER_03]: Oh my god, it's salty.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yes, Taehyung, it's the ocean.
[SPEAKER_03]: Jim and falls back into the waves, letting the water soak into his hair into the fiber of his bean.
[SPEAKER_03]: Maybe don't swallow ocean water.
[SPEAKER_03]: Might be a good idea.
[SPEAKER_03]: He rises to his feet, tugging on Tae's hand to pull him to the side.
[SPEAKER_03]: Think we can body-serve.
[SPEAKER_03]: Taehyung winces as another wave splashes against his body.
[SPEAKER_03]: And he lets go of Jim and his hand, falling back into the next wave, allowing it to carry him closer to shore.
[SPEAKER_03]: Pearls have laughed or rumble in German's chess, and then he follows suit, jumping into the wave behind Teyang, and together they both drift back toward the shore.
[SPEAKER_03]: It feels almost like flying, this drifting could together.
[SPEAKER_03]: This weightless floating, where for a moment the entire world around him disappears.
[SPEAKER_03]: He becomes vaguely aware of Taehyung's hand reaching out for his, a dot of warmth in this literal sea of cold.
[SPEAKER_03]: Their fingers laced together as they rise from the ocean floor, toes digging into the sand.
[SPEAKER_03]: Jim and looks over at Taehyung, watching the delay as his eyes shine brighter than the setting sun.
[SPEAKER_03]: He smiling so big, lips parted into that boxing shape he loved so much, and oh, how he missed seeing it over the past couple years.
[SPEAKER_03]: Oh, sure, stop it.
[SPEAKER_03]: I know!
[SPEAKER_03]: I was like, I wanted like a BTS reuniting so bad.
[SPEAKER_03]: Sure, he spent time with Taehyung often on since their military service started, but something about seeing the others, even Jungkook whom he served with, hadn't been quite the same with that stressor looming over their heads.
[SPEAKER_03]: Now that they're free, it feels like they're finding each other again, and like they're returning to themselves after so much time away.
[SPEAKER_03]: Tugginess hand, Taehyung pulls Jimin back out into the ocean.
[SPEAKER_03]: The two of them jumping over the waves as Jimin cries out from the impact.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's not a distressed cry.
[SPEAKER_03]: The wave just hits a little lot harder than he thought it would.
[SPEAKER_03]: And he can feel his pants start to abandon him.
[SPEAKER_03]: Oh no, he whisked birds as they come down.
[SPEAKER_03]: Tugginess pants back up as the wave starts to retreat.
[SPEAKER_03]: What's wrong, Taehyung asks, then he laughs, oh, what a shame, I would have loved to see that.
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm sure you would, you fucking pervert, Jim and protests, and then he reaches for Taehyung's pants, his bandmate screeching and protests as he falls back towards the ocean, pulling Jim and down with him.
[SPEAKER_03]: Jimmins giggling as he's pulled under the water, Tae Young's arms wrapping around his waist beneath the surf.
[SPEAKER_03]: He can't see under here, he's practically blind, but he's fully aware of Tae Young's point of closer, of Tae Young's lips finding the corner of his mouth.
[SPEAKER_03]: He takes salt as Tae Young kisses him properly, prudently, tongue prudently at his lips.
[SPEAKER_03]: Jimin is only two eager to grant him access, arms wrapping around his neck as they kiss, lips partying and coming together in this tiny bubble of secrecy.
[SPEAKER_03]: Sure, the others know what they're doing, the others even partake from time to time.
[SPEAKER_03]: But Jimin has Taehyung to himself right now and has him in his arms.
[SPEAKER_03]: No one else can see them like this, under the ocean's surface, no passers by or unknowing watchers, it's just them private and beautiful the way he likes it.
[SPEAKER_03]: Eventually they have to surface for air and German wishes beyond all wishing that they could kiss up here too But that wouldn't be as private and wouldn't be as intimate if they shared it with everyone else Maybe if the seven of them had the beach to themselves, but they don't
[SPEAKER_03]: Jim and reaches for Tae Young's hand, offering a squeeze as he looks back towards the other five.
[SPEAKER_03]: Hosex laughter loud enough to reach them from here as he films the whole thing.
[SPEAKER_03]: Come on, that's enough filling around for one day.
[SPEAKER_03]: He tells Tae Young, I'm cold.
[SPEAKER_03]: Rappin and Arm around Jimmins' waist, Taehyung nods, Yami too.
[SPEAKER_03]: I think Nam Junhyung had the towels.
[SPEAKER_03]: If he didn't lose them, Jimmins mutters, more laughter spilling out from their lips as they return to their family, and the two become seven once more.
[SPEAKER_00]: the end.
[SPEAKER_00]: Wow, that was beautiful.
[SPEAKER_00]: Isn't that so cute?
[SPEAKER_00]: It's really perfect.
[SPEAKER_00]: Honestly, as many fanfecks as I have read, I have never heard of an underwater kiss like that.
[SPEAKER_00]: Where that was the moment of just like secrecy that they got to be intimate with each other and that like moment where no one could see them.
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_00]: cute, but also you can just envision since we have the visual of them out in the waves together, putting their arms around each other, holding their hands, you could see them pointing out, looking for some big waves waiting for the big waves to come.
[SPEAKER_00]: You could tell that everything in this story is exactly what they were feeling, just being reunited, getting to just enjoy the moment as the sun was setting while they're swimming out in the ocean.
[SPEAKER_03]: I agree.
[SPEAKER_03]: I just thought it was so cute.
[SPEAKER_00]: It's so cute.
[SPEAKER_03]: And perfectly timely.
[SPEAKER_03]: It was like exactly what I was hoping to find.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_03]: So yeah, I've got great thick.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yes, real thick.
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay, well mine is not specifically the beach, but it is inspired from the beach because it's Tajan.
[SPEAKER_00]: I could not get over how much Tajan interaction we've gotten recently.
[SPEAKER_00]: Tayang especially has been like yearning after Jen.
[SPEAKER_00]: I feel like he has been all about Jen lately, and also we have this big muscular Tayang too, and I'm just obsessed with it.
[SPEAKER_00]: So my fanfic is called You Got Me Falling by Monomune Love on AO-III.
[SPEAKER_00]: And so the summary is, Tae-young, an artist from Seoul, has been staying at a friend of a friend's farm for the summer, hoping to get some inspiration or at least a distraction.
[SPEAKER_00]: What he didn't expect was to fall ahead of her heels for the farm's owner.
[SPEAKER_00]: So they have a couple notes.
[SPEAKER_00]: They said, please picture Jin wearing the hat from Rungin episode nine.
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, just where they're like taking like chili peppers and stuff.
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_00]: So that's the hat that he's wearing.
[SPEAKER_00]: And yes, very much giving Jin former.
[SPEAKER_00]: And then they said that one of their inspirations was Tae Young in rainy days when he's very like in that artsy mode.
[SPEAKER_00]: He's like painting that alien with the bread loaf.
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, that's the Tae Young we're envisioning on the buff.
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, host military to young host military to young as an artist and then also this story is inspired by Vincent Van Gogh's eighteen eighty-nine butterflies and poppies.
[SPEAKER_00]: So it's just a really beautiful painting that I think is giving just living on a farm, you know, doing some art out in nature.
[SPEAKER_03]: This is like giving me like rom-com like vibes with this setup.
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm very much looking forward to this.
[SPEAKER_00]: I think it could be very key drama, too.
[SPEAKER_00]: Like something about gin with this farmer hat.
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know.
[SPEAKER_00]: Like I'm picturing Korean countryside for sure.
[SPEAKER_03]: Hallelujah.
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_00]: All right.
[SPEAKER_00]: Taeyang wiped a hand across his forehead, when seeing at the slick feeling of sweat on his fingers.
[SPEAKER_00]: He wrapped his hands on his pants and attempt to dry them and put his gloves back on.
[SPEAKER_00]: It was hot.
[SPEAKER_00]: Probably the hottest day of the season so far.
[SPEAKER_00]: He was practically soaked under a shirt and the beaming sun had started to feel like fire against his skin, despite the copious amount of sunscreen he'd slathered all over himself before they started working.
[SPEAKER_00]: All of this to say, there was no place to young could would rather be.
[SPEAKER_00]: He snuck peaks at his partner as they worked, at long fingers and perfectly plush pink lips.
[SPEAKER_00]: At the sweat beating up around his lips and his nose, droplets dripping onto his forehead from his hair.
[SPEAKER_00]: It was just the two of them today.
[SPEAKER_00]: So, Jun had given Nam Jun and Jungkook the day off, and when Taehyung had complained, it was the first day of soybean harvest after all.
[SPEAKER_00]: He explained, it's their anniversary Taehyung.
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm not a monster.
[SPEAKER_00]: Now that they were here, Tae Young didn't mind it so much.
[SPEAKER_00]: He wasn't in a very talkative mood today, and so June didn't seem to mind, quietly humming to himself while they worked.
[SPEAKER_00]: Tae Young loved when he hummed, loved to even more when he heard him singing in the kitchen while he cooked, or through the bathroom door while he showered.
[SPEAKER_00]: His sweet, silver voice, the most beautiful thing he'd ever heard.
[SPEAKER_00]: So, Jen didn't know Teyang listened to him, or at least not how often.
[SPEAKER_00]: The one time he caught Teyang listening, his ears had turned a bright red, and he shoe him away.
[SPEAKER_00]: How are you doing over there?
[SPEAKER_00]: Soak Jin asked, breaking the quiet.
[SPEAKER_00]: Good, Taehyung replied, hot.
[SPEAKER_00]: Soak Jin laughed, yeah, it's pretty miserable.
[SPEAKER_00]: He tilted his head back to look at the sun, holding onto his straw hat so he didn't slip off his head.
[SPEAKER_00]: Water break?
[SPEAKER_00]: Taehyung nodded, please.
[SPEAKER_00]: So Jen's farm wasn't very big.
[SPEAKER_00]: Just a few crops and a neat, with neat little rows in a small, manjury of animals.
[SPEAKER_00]: A couple chickens, a few fat barncats, an old-hound that was mixed named Yoshi, that Taeyang rarely saw the wake, and a couple of alpacas.
[SPEAKER_00]: I just feel like the alpacas is perfect.
[SPEAKER_00]: Like, of course he has to have alpacas.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah, and also having a dog named Yoshi since he's such a Mario fan.
[SPEAKER_00]: Mmm, thank you.
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_00]: One of the chickens had wandered over to where Soak Jin and Tae Young were working and she tried to poke her head in Tae Young's basket of pixoy beans.
[SPEAKER_00]: Tae Young's shooter away gently as he grabbed a bottle of water from the cooler.
[SPEAKER_00]: He handed a bottle to Soak Jin as well.
[SPEAKER_00]: Thanks, so Tureen said, he grabbed a hand towel and dabbed at the sweat on his forehead and neck delicately.
[SPEAKER_00]: Tayyang's eyes followed his every move, his long hands as he pulled off his gardening gloves, gently and twisting the lid of the bottle of water before putting it to his lips, tipping back and drinking a long drink, though bobbing as he swallowed.
[SPEAKER_00]: Despite the cold bottle in his hands, Tayyang still felt like he was on fire.
[SPEAKER_00]: He tried his best, he really had, to not think about Zokjun outside of the context of friendship.
[SPEAKER_00]: It had been nearly three months since he'd come to help him at the farm.
[SPEAKER_00]: Taeyang's still cringe when he thought of that day.
[SPEAKER_00]: His grandfather had run a farm when Taeyang was young and he thought it would be a breeze helping out.
[SPEAKER_00]: He quickly learned otherwise.
[SPEAKER_00]: Less than an hour into planting, he had been out of breath, hands covered in blisters, and knees feeling like they might give out.
[SPEAKER_00]: But that wasn't even the worst of it.
[SPEAKER_00]: From the first moment that Taeyang had laid eyes on Kim Sok Jin, the owner of the farm, and Taeyang's gracious host for the summer, he'd been smitten.
[SPEAKER_00]: He'd never seen someone so beautiful, so perfect.
[SPEAKER_00]: He felt like a butterfly drawn to flowers in spring, desperate for Sok Jin's attention to touch, to taste.
[SPEAKER_00]: And for the first time in months his hands had itched to draw, to create.
[SPEAKER_00]: Wasn't that the purpose of this summer away from home to break his unbearable art block from that plague for so long?
[SPEAKER_00]: He should have admired quietly, but instead he had opened his mouth, flirting shamelessly, and trying to get Sokjin in bed.
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh my gosh, I know it.
[SPEAKER_00]: It hadn't got over very well.
[SPEAKER_00]: And I'll honestly, Sokjin actually handled it with grace, gently but firmly turning to young down and giving him a talk about boundaries for the summer.
[SPEAKER_00]: It had been a humbling experience to say the least.
[SPEAKER_00]: Taeyang wasn't exactly accustomed to rejection.
[SPEAKER_00]: He was used to soul, to gallery events, and after parties that he rarely, if ever, left alone.
[SPEAKER_00]: He'd brought countless artists, and my, at admirers, alike, home to his bed.
[SPEAKER_00]: It didn't go further than that, just mindless sex, but Taeyang didn't mind.
[SPEAKER_00]: He didn't want more than that.
[SPEAKER_00]: Until Soak Jin.
[SPEAKER_00]: Something had changed in him this summer.
[SPEAKER_00]: Soak Jin had changed something in him this summer.
[SPEAKER_00]: It had started just as an attraction, and more than that, it returned his inspiration.
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm used as Jim and had called it on one of their weekly phone calls, I know.
[SPEAKER_00]: There's always gotta be vehement friendship always.
[SPEAKER_03]: but also muse, muse, muse, muse.
[SPEAKER_00]: His art block was broken, but it seemed there was nothing he could paint or draw but sokjin.
[SPEAKER_00]: No matter how hard he tried, Teyyan kept going back to the line of his profile, the curve of his lips.
[SPEAKER_00]: He failed to sketchbook and nearly half of another with drawings.
[SPEAKER_00]: Some black and white, some colored various styles, but all sokjin.
[SPEAKER_00]: Teyyan couldn't make his fingers create anything else.
[SPEAKER_00]: It was maddening.
[SPEAKER_00]: He may have been able to handle it if he had stayed nothing more than in a traction, but sokjun was, well, sokjun.
[SPEAKER_00]: He was funny, but serious about his work, loud when he wanted to be written introverted at heart.
[SPEAKER_00]: He never teased Taeyang about hopeless, about how hopeless he was at physical labor in the beginning.
[SPEAKER_00]: Never even brought up Taeyang's failed attempt to sleep with him.
[SPEAKER_00]: He was endlessly patient, even when Taeyang messed up over and over.
[SPEAKER_00]: Even when drunk cook and non-June ground because their task took twice as long because Soak-June insisted on letting Tae-Young help and try.
[SPEAKER_00]: He'd even let Tae-Young help him cook and although the younger man had always been fairly hopeless in the kitchen, Soak-June was a good teacher and he managed to make fear that was not just edible but actually pretty good.
[SPEAKER_00]: God, I just can't seem to cool off Soak-June side.
[SPEAKER_00]: The sun is brutal today.
[SPEAKER_00]: Here young Teyang said pouring some cold water on to his own towel and pressing it to Soak Jin's neck.
[SPEAKER_00]: Soak Jin's shoulders shot up to his ears.
[SPEAKER_00]: That's cold.
[SPEAKER_00]: He has breaking into laughter.
[SPEAKER_00]: Feels nice though.
[SPEAKER_00]: He smiled and Teyang's stomach flipped.
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, it was much more than an attraction.
[SPEAKER_00]: Sometime, over the past few months, Taeyang had fallen hard.
[SPEAKER_00]: Sure, he's so wanted to have sex with Sojoon, but it was more than that.
[SPEAKER_00]: He wanted to hold his hand to trace his lines of his nose and lips.
[SPEAKER_00]: He wanted to curl up on the couch together and watch movies, to lay his head on Sojoon's lap, and feel his fingers in his hair.
[SPEAKER_00]: It was pathetic, honestly.
[SPEAKER_00]: The way that he'd begun to follow Sojoon around like a Lovesick puppy, the way that the slightest praise from the older man made Taeyang and nearly met with happiness.
[SPEAKER_00]: What should we have for dinner tonight, Soak Jin asked raising his arms above his head as he stretched and cracked his neck.
[SPEAKER_00]: Taehyung looked away at his shirt as his shirt wrote up, revealing a sliver of skin from his lower belly.
[SPEAKER_00]: Whatever young ones, Taehyung said simply, but Soak Jin weighed him off.
[SPEAKER_00]: Nah, none of that, you pick.
[SPEAKER_00]: You've been doing so well lately and I want to reward you.
[SPEAKER_00]: He gave Taehyung a sincere smile.
[SPEAKER_00]: Taehyung blashed.
[SPEAKER_00]: Ah, young.
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean it.
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, how about cold noodles, tangas?
[SPEAKER_00]: Maybe because it was so hot outside, and maybe because he knew how much sokjun liked them.
[SPEAKER_00]: Sokjun grinned.
[SPEAKER_00]: That sounds perfect.
[SPEAKER_00]: All right.
[SPEAKER_00]: Moving on to the next scene.
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm loving it so far.
[SPEAKER_03]: This is so good.
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, I love that tang is just like hopeless.
[SPEAKER_00]: Like he is just hopelessly in love with sokjun.
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_00]: I love it.
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay, Taeyeon grabbed a towel as he climbed out of the shower, running it over his hair before wrapping it around his waist.
[SPEAKER_00]: He wiped the condensation from the mirror and examined his reflection.
[SPEAKER_00]: It had only been three months on the farm, but when he looked at photos from earlier this year, he had hardly recognized himself.
[SPEAKER_00]: His hair had grown out quite a bit, his black roots showing since he had given up on bleaching weeks ago.
[SPEAKER_00]: His skin had always been tan, but it had deepened to a rich brown that he hadn't seen since he was young.
[SPEAKER_00]: Definitely not since he had moved to the city.
[SPEAKER_00]: His body was bigger as well, his chest mortified, and his arms much thicker, thanks to the daily workout sessions with Nam June and Jungkook.
[SPEAKER_00]: I just have to pause here and say how much I love that they are like describing buff Taehyung right now because yes.
[SPEAKER_00]: Because the accuracy.
[SPEAKER_00]: This is what he looks like right now.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yes, one hundred percent.
[SPEAKER_00]: It wasn't that Taehyung had been self-conscious before.
[SPEAKER_00]: He knew he was attractive.
[SPEAKER_00]: Hell, he couldn't think of someone who had rejected him before sok Jin Han.
[SPEAKER_00]: But when he looked at himself now, he felt proud.
[SPEAKER_00]: He had worked hard this summer and his body reflected that.
[SPEAKER_00]: When he opened the door and stepped into the hall, he collided with something solid, nearly knocking it over.
[SPEAKER_00]: It was only when he reached out to catch it, nearly dropping his town the process that he realized it was soaked in.
[SPEAKER_00]: Who now was staring at him with wide eyes, his neck and ears, tomato red.
[SPEAKER_00]: I, uh, sorry, he squeaked.
[SPEAKER_00]: Too young realized he was still gripping his arms and let go quickly stepping back.
[SPEAKER_00]: It's okay, Taehyung assured him.
[SPEAKER_00]: No harm done.
[SPEAKER_00]: He could feel his cheeks heating up as well, and he tried to laugh, but it sounded incredibly awkward.
[SPEAKER_00]: I was just coming to tell you that dinner is ready.
[SPEAKER_00]: Sokjin said, seemingly unable to look at Taehyung's face, or in Taehyung's direction even, his eyes glued to the ceiling.
[SPEAKER_00]: Right, good.
[SPEAKER_00]: I'll be right down.
[SPEAKER_00]: Great.
[SPEAKER_00]: Sokjin turned on his heels and disappeared down the stairs.
[SPEAKER_00]: Two minutes later, and some articles of clothing later, Taeyeon walked into the kitchen.
[SPEAKER_00]: He reached down to pet a sleeping Yoshi, but the dog didn't move.
[SPEAKER_00]: Passed down and snoring like an adult man.
[SPEAKER_00]: Taeyeon chuckled as he stopped over him.
[SPEAKER_00]: So, Jin seemed to be less flustered than he had been outside the bathroom, but he saw a triple meeting Taeyeon's eyes while they ate.
[SPEAKER_00]: His ears still tinged with a bit of pink.
[SPEAKER_00]: Young, it's so good, Tae Young praised around a mouthful of noodles.
[SPEAKER_00]: It was kicked perfectly, even better than Tae Young's mom would have made, and that's saying a lot.
[SPEAKER_00]: I have a surprise as well, so Jen said, between bites, Tae Young cocked his head.
[SPEAKER_00]: What is it?
[SPEAKER_00]: So Jen Grind.
[SPEAKER_00]: watermelon, bingsuil.
[SPEAKER_00]: It's in the fridge.
[SPEAKER_00]: Taeyang gassed.
[SPEAKER_00]: Jumping out of his chair, he practically flew to the fridge.
[SPEAKER_00]: You made this yourself he asked?
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, it's kind of a pain in the ass, but I thought you might like it.
[SPEAKER_00]: So often said smiling.
[SPEAKER_00]: Don't tell the other boys they've been begging me to make some for days.
[SPEAKER_00]: Taehyung brought the bowl back to the table along with two spoons.
[SPEAKER_00]: It was made the way he liked it, with actual shaved watermelon, not just ice-topped with fruit, though there were chunks of fresh watermelon as well.
[SPEAKER_00]: All topped with a thick drizzle of cream, Taehyung dipped his spoon and took a big bite, practically moating, moaning at the delicious taste.
[SPEAKER_00]: It's so good he groaned.
[SPEAKER_00]: I haven't had this seven years, so jeon nodded.
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm glad you like it.
[SPEAKER_00]: His ears were pink again, but Taehyung wasn't sure why.
[SPEAKER_00]: Thank you so much, Jen.
[SPEAKER_00]: Today Young said, grinning, you're the best.
[SPEAKER_00]: Ah, it's nothing.
[SPEAKER_00]: Jen mumbled, taking a bite of his own.
[SPEAKER_00]: Watermelon juice drippling down his chin and staining his lips, turning them in even darker pink.
[SPEAKER_00]: Today Young's heart stuttered in his chest.
[SPEAKER_00]: What?
[SPEAKER_00]: When are Namjoon and John Goot getting back?
[SPEAKER_00]: He asked, trying to distract himself from the way sokjans tongue ran over his lips, catching the stray juice.
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, they're not coming back until tomorrow.
[SPEAKER_00]: They got a hotel in town.
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh!
[SPEAKER_00]: Such a nodded.
[SPEAKER_00]: We have the house for ourselves tonight.
[SPEAKER_00]: He said.
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh my god.
[SPEAKER_00]: It was an innocent statement but something about the tone of Sochan's voice made Tae Young pause.
[SPEAKER_00]: But he didn't continue.
[SPEAKER_00]: He went back to eating so Tae Young wondered if maybe he'd imagined it.
[SPEAKER_00]: Want to watch a movie?
[SPEAKER_00]: He's a Justin.
[SPEAKER_00]: We could.
[SPEAKER_00]: Soak dinner green.
[SPEAKER_00]: But I actually wanted to talk to you about something.
[SPEAKER_00]: Tang, some twisted.
[SPEAKER_00]: Soak Jen's voice sounded uncharacteristically serious.
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, okay.
[SPEAKER_00]: Talk about what?
[SPEAKER_00]: I looked in your sketchbook.
[SPEAKER_00]: Soak Jen confessed.
[SPEAKER_00]: I know, I know.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's like going through someone's diary.
[SPEAKER_00]: I know, right?
[SPEAKER_00]: Tae Young felt like he was going to throw up with Sok Jin confronting him.
[SPEAKER_00]: He could only imagine what he thought as he opened the pages saw all the drawings within.
[SPEAKER_00]: The close studies of his lips and eyes of his hands, which, okay, this author must have a thing for Jin's hands.
[SPEAKER_00]: Like, I feel like I gotta go look at some handpicks of Jin's.
[SPEAKER_03]: I bet you find them now because he's been playing the piano on his tour.
[SPEAKER_00]: Sure.
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm sure there's many.
[SPEAKER_00]: At the worst he'd be angry at the least he might pity him.
[SPEAKER_00]: Taehyung just hoped that he'd be as gentle as he was previously letting him down again.
[SPEAKER_00]: I just can't.
[SPEAKER_00]: He's so whipped.
[SPEAKER_00]: Like it's it's so funny seeing Taehyung whipped.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_00]: But that's how he's been lately with Jen.
[SPEAKER_00]: He's been whipped.
[SPEAKER_03]: Literally all over that beat.
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, and not even that.
[SPEAKER_00]: Like, he's just any moment you see of them together.
[SPEAKER_00]: It just seems like Taehyung is checking out Jen head to toe.
[SPEAKER_00]: It's so funny.
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_00]: So, Jen continued.
[SPEAKER_00]: I shouldn't have, and I apologize for violating your privacy.
[SPEAKER_00]: To be honest, I thought I was one of Drunk Goeks.
[SPEAKER_00]: I opened it to check, and well, I saw.
[SPEAKER_00]: Young.
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm so sorry.
[SPEAKER_00]: Taeyang said staring at the table and wishing he could melt into the floor.
[SPEAKER_00]: I promise it doesn't mean anything.
[SPEAKER_00]: You just have a very nice face for sketching.
[SPEAKER_00]: He cringed at the poor attempt at a lie.
[SPEAKER_00]: Don't be sorry, Sergeant said his voice quiet.
[SPEAKER_00]: They're nice.
[SPEAKER_00]: Taehyung looked up, eyes wide, flush, climbed up, soak jeans, neck as he spoke.
[SPEAKER_00]: Lovely, actually.
[SPEAKER_00]: I've never seen, I mean, no one's ever drawn me before, at least, not like that.
[SPEAKER_00]: You're not upset?
[SPEAKER_00]: Soak jeans laughed and disbelief.
[SPEAKER_00]: Upset?
[SPEAKER_00]: Why would I be upset?
[SPEAKER_00]: Taehyung shrugged.
[SPEAKER_00]: I thought you'd think I was an obsessive freak.
[SPEAKER_00]: Are you?
[SPEAKER_00]: The question caught a young off guard and he laughed.
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, no, at least I don't think so.
[SPEAKER_00]: I just, I don't know.
[SPEAKER_00]: I like drawing you.
[SPEAKER_00]: Such and swallowed.
[SPEAKER_00]: Is that the only reason?
[SPEAKER_00]: Tang was quiet for a moment.
[SPEAKER_00]: You know it's not.
[SPEAKER_00]: I do.
[SPEAKER_00]: You already turned me down once, saying, said, smiling weekly.
[SPEAKER_00]: Soak Jin Scott.
[SPEAKER_00]: All you wanted to do was get in my pants.
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't believe you'd have done those drawings if that's all you wanted.
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't believe you'd look at me the way you do if that's all you wanted.
[SPEAKER_00]: Tae Yang felt like he had been stripped bare.
[SPEAKER_00]: He hadn't realized sok Jin could see right through his facade.
[SPEAKER_00]: It was a vulnerability.
[SPEAKER_00]: He hadn't experienced before and it made him want to crawl under the table.
[SPEAKER_00]: So is this like an intervention or something?
[SPEAKER_00]: You're trying to let me down easy and remind me that it'll never happen.
[SPEAKER_00]: He said his voice harsh or than he intended.
[SPEAKER_00]: Sok Jin blamed.
[SPEAKER_00]: What?
[SPEAKER_00]: No.
[SPEAKER_00]: Why would you think that?
[SPEAKER_00]: Like I said, you already turned me down once.
[SPEAKER_00]: So Jen shook his head, saying, and like I said, all you wanted to do back then was get in my pants.
[SPEAKER_00]: I wanted to talk to you tonight because I like you.
[SPEAKER_00]: You idiot.
[SPEAKER_00]: Taehyung's mouth fell open a bit.
[SPEAKER_00]: You what?
[SPEAKER_00]: So Jen rolled his eyes.
[SPEAKER_00]: I said I like you a lot.
[SPEAKER_00]: You like me?
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes!
[SPEAKER_00]: Like like romantically, Seokjin dropped his head to his hands and groaned Kim Tae-young.
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm gonna kill you.
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, I like you romantically.
[SPEAKER_00]: Unfortunately, you are very handsome and despite my best efforts, I have fallen for your charms these past few months.
[SPEAKER_00]: It's been quite annoying.
[SPEAKER_00]: Tang's mouth curved into his mouth.
[SPEAKER_00]: You think I'm handsome?
[SPEAKER_00]: Soak them scoffed.
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, of course I do.
[SPEAKER_00]: Have you seen yourself and then numb June just had to show you his home, Jen, that absolute traitor.
[SPEAKER_00]: Tang burst into giggles feeling a bit giddy.
[SPEAKER_00]: You like me?
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, I like you.
[SPEAKER_00]: You're very sweet when you're not acting like a pretentious art snob or a fuckboy.
[SPEAKER_00]: Hey, I'm not a snob or a fuck boy.
[SPEAKER_00]: Tay on cross-desarms.
[SPEAKER_00]: Exactly.
[SPEAKER_00]: Soak-jin said smiling, but you acted like it when you first came here.
[SPEAKER_00]: I wanted to tell you, and gee, and German to take you back to Seoul and find someone else.
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm glad I didn't, and that I got to know the real you.
[SPEAKER_00]: Me too.
[SPEAKER_00]: I did look of some of your artwork though, you're very talented.
[SPEAKER_00]: Taeyang rose up in his chair, his body filling with warmth.
[SPEAKER_00]: You think so?
[SPEAKER_00]: I do.
[SPEAKER_00]: For some reason, Sokjin's praises meant more than anything else.
[SPEAKER_00]: Taeyang had realized how much he needed to hear it from someone like him.
[SPEAKER_00]: Someone who wasn't caught up in the art world, or even someone who hadn't known him for years like Jiminer Yungi.
[SPEAKER_00]: Thank you, he said sincerely.
[SPEAKER_00]: It was quiet for a moment outside the sun with setting and the kitchen was filled with an orange and pink from the small window about the sink, which I just love that it's sunset.
[SPEAKER_00]: Like giving the beach again.
[SPEAKER_00]: It's five little sunsets.
[SPEAKER_00]: Right.
[SPEAKER_00]: So what now Teyang asked finally a bit nervous?
[SPEAKER_00]: Well we could watch a movie, I guess so, Jinsen, or you could come upstairs.
[SPEAKER_00]: Teyang's heart pounding upstairs.
[SPEAKER_00]: I like to show you my room.
[SPEAKER_00]: So Jin said smiling playfully, I'm particularly the bad if you're interested.
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, I'm very interested.
[SPEAKER_00]: So Jin rose through his feet and walked around the table holding out his hand.
[SPEAKER_00]: We'll come on then.
[SPEAKER_00]: Taehyung took it and instead of heading for the stairs, he pulled so Jin and close, unable to wait any longer.
[SPEAKER_00]: He had held the back of his neck as he kissed his mouth the way he wanted to for so long.
[SPEAKER_00]: So Jin returned the kiss eagerly, slipping his tongue between Taehyung's lips.
[SPEAKER_00]: It still tasted a bit like watermelon, and he felt divine.
[SPEAKER_00]: Lips so soft and plush that Tey Young didn't know how he'd ever stop kissing him.
[SPEAKER_00]: And yeah, when they practically parted, they were panting, such as people's blown wine.
[SPEAKER_00]: Tang was painfully hard.
[SPEAKER_00]: Sorry, kissing alone.
[SPEAKER_00]: So they proceeded upstairs.
[SPEAKER_00]: So Jin said, let's go ahead and go upstairs before I just have to fuck you on the kitchen table.
[SPEAKER_00]: Taehyung stopped in his tracks, wait, but that sounds fun.
[SPEAKER_00]: So Jin says, no, it's unhygienic.
[SPEAKER_00]: Come on.
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh my god.
[SPEAKER_00]: So the end of the story, they make it all the way upstairs, et cetera, et cetera.
[SPEAKER_00]: And I just wanted it after all of that.
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm just not going to read it.
[SPEAKER_00]: This is what happens.
[SPEAKER_00]: Taehyung says, I was thinking of extending my stay here a bit.
[SPEAKER_00]: If that's okay, I'm not quite ready to go back to Seoul yet.
[SPEAKER_00]: As if I could ever let you leave, so Jin said, making Taehyung laugh against his shoulder.
[SPEAKER_00]: Of course you can say, as long as you want.
[SPEAKER_00]: I just have more inspiration out here, you know.
[SPEAKER_00]: That's what it is, so John said.
[SPEAKER_00]: I do, Taehyung and Susan.
[SPEAKER_00]: He yandon buried his head in Sojoon's legs.
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm gonna fall asleep.
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, sweet dreams, Sojoon said kissing his forehead.
[SPEAKER_00]: As he fell asleep, Taehyung's last thoughts were how glad he was so he'd come to this little farm.
[SPEAKER_03]: Love it!
[SPEAKER_03]: First of all, I can like visualize both of them so well in this.
[SPEAKER_03]: It really feels like them.
[SPEAKER_03]: And I love like I love that Taehyung chose cold noodles to eat because that's Jin's favorite.
[SPEAKER_03]: And then perfect.
[SPEAKER_03]: In return later, it was like, Jen almost has a preemptive apology for going through the sketchbook, made him the watermelon being sued because he knew that he would love it and that it's his favorite.
[SPEAKER_03]: Like, that is just very, very adorable to me.
[SPEAKER_03]: And I love that Jin is Taehyung's inspiration, like that's beautiful, and also we're always like, Jin is so handsome, like he's unreal, you know?
[SPEAKER_03]: So perfect art and spell.
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, we have worldwide handsome and then also the most handsome man in the world.
[SPEAKER_00]: This is a fantastic trip.
[SPEAKER_00]: What a great pairing, like it's supreme.
[SPEAKER_00]: But also, I just love that you have Kim Tae Young who is just yearning after someone.
[SPEAKER_00]: Like he is just simping over Jen and I feel like that's just very, very fitting because I can't see Jen, you know, simping over someone else.
[SPEAKER_00]: Like he's just has the confidence where it's like, no, I am the one.
[SPEAKER_00]: Right, I am the best.
[SPEAKER_03]: I love it so much.
[SPEAKER_03]: That was such a great trick.
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_03]: Thank you for sharing.
[SPEAKER_03]: Okay, I have one more that I'm going to round us out with, and this was also, this is another V-Man Fick, and still inspired by like the beach, the ocean, the water, because I just, I wanted, I wanted this content.
[SPEAKER_03]: I love seeing them playing in the water together.
[SPEAKER_03]: This is called the windspeaks, and it's by Gimmy that August D. The summary of it is something's living under the dock at the Kim's Beach House.
[SPEAKER_03]: And there is also a little mood board for this that I think we should post.
[SPEAKER_03]: But you see, like, tang on underwater, during April by age, you see, like underwater shots of seaweed and fishes, you see some like mermaid hands with, like,
[SPEAKER_03]: Fins between them, you know, so I have never read a thick bike like this before.
[SPEAKER_03]: Okay.
[SPEAKER_03]: So I really liked it.
[SPEAKER_03]: And Bethany, it also is just, well, we'll talk about it at the end, but I thought of you and things that you tell me when
[SPEAKER_03]: when I read this.
[SPEAKER_03]: Okay, I'm intrigued.
[SPEAKER_03]: Okay, let's get into it.
[SPEAKER_03]: This is the wind speaks.
[SPEAKER_03]: Ta-yanga!
[SPEAKER_03]: You have two hours before dinner, okay?
[SPEAKER_03]: Yes, Oma!
[SPEAKER_03]: Don't make me have to come find you!
[SPEAKER_03]: Yes, Oma!
[SPEAKER_03]: Ta-yanga calls out before closing the sliding glass door on their deck.
[SPEAKER_03]: The Kim family beach house sits just behind the sand dunes separating the beach from the homes lining the streets of their quiet town.
[SPEAKER_03]: The homes are nothing special, just boxy buildings with large windows built on high foundations to protect from flooding.
[SPEAKER_03]: The residents' real treasures are the boats and the Kim dock is where Tae Young heads.
[SPEAKER_03]: Taehyung's fluffy hair whips in the cool autumn wind during his trek, though through the cleared walkway between the dunes leading to the beach.
[SPEAKER_03]: Reach in the sand, the toes of his boots darken as he charges through it.
[SPEAKER_03]: All morning at rain, making the sand clump like wet dirt.
[SPEAKER_03]: slimy seaweed and other debris kicked the shoreline, so Taehyung carefully walks along the beach.
[SPEAKER_03]: The Kim Dock isn't anything fancy.
[SPEAKER_03]: Taehyung's father built himself out of what he cut, sanded, and treated with his bare hands years ago.
[SPEAKER_03]: They keep their small fishing boat anchored to it, singularity, named by Taehyung.
[SPEAKER_03]: He didn't know what to say when his parents asked him what it meant.
[SPEAKER_03]: He couldn't outright admit that the word came to him in whispers in the wind when he sat at the edge of the dock, feet kicking in the air above the water.
[SPEAKER_03]: Taehyung has told one too many stories in the past, his parents are tired of hearing about his conversations with the wind.
[SPEAKER_03]: They said he would grow out of it, but Taehyung is freshly twenty, no longer a child, and yet the wind still speaks.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's cold without the sun to chase away the rain clouds.
[SPEAKER_03]: Tegang's lips has wind break her up to the base of his throat and crouches at the edge of the dock to pier out into the ocean.
[SPEAKER_03]: The water is clouded from the rain kicking up the sandy floor.
[SPEAKER_03]: Hi, Tegang speaks to the wind and hopes it remembers.
[SPEAKER_03]: He left his phone at home, so he has no way of knowing how long he waits.
[SPEAKER_03]: The dock is rain-soaked, but his thighs burn from crouching.
[SPEAKER_03]: He opts for kneeling and shivers when his jeans absorb the water at his knees.
[SPEAKER_03]: My tail?
[SPEAKER_03]: Yes, Taehyung perks up.
[SPEAKER_03]: Eyes searching the horizon where the gray sky meets the murky ocean waters.
[SPEAKER_03]: He never sees anything.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's just the wind.
[SPEAKER_03]: He looks anyway.
[SPEAKER_03]: Where have you been my day?
[SPEAKER_03]: The wind sounds disappointed.
[SPEAKER_03]: The guilt makes Taehyung shrink further into his jacket like a frightened animal backed into a corner.
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm sorry.
[SPEAKER_03]: I go to college now.
[SPEAKER_03]: Taehyung admits sheepishly far from here.
[SPEAKER_03]: So I can only visit during school breaks.
[SPEAKER_03]: Waves lap at the edges of the dock.
[SPEAKER_03]: Sometimes, Taehyung thinks he sees things in the water.
[SPEAKER_03]: Shadow's bigger than the fish he catches off the dock in the summers.
[SPEAKER_03]: His father insists that the waters too shallow for large fish like sharks, but Taehyung doesn't believe him.
[SPEAKER_03]: I miss my Tae when he is in a round.
[SPEAKER_03]: Is it possible for a voice to be a dick-dean?
[SPEAKER_03]: Taehyung swears, the wind's voice calms him.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's silvery and alluring.
[SPEAKER_03]: A lullaby he could find himself falling into.
[SPEAKER_03]: He imagines himself falling asleep on a note, writing the sound waves of the wind's voice, ringing pure and cutting through the splash of the waves meeting the dock.
[SPEAKER_03]: Sometimes he wishes the wind would sing to him, knowing it would be a kind of heaven on earth if it did.
[SPEAKER_03]: I miss you too.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's hard making new friends.
[SPEAKER_03]: I just, I can't talk to them about anything like I can with you.
[SPEAKER_03]: He closes his eyes and feels the wind kiss each eyelid.
[SPEAKER_03]: You're my only friend, the wind whispers, sounding so close that day young things he can feel the wind swirl around the side of his face.
[SPEAKER_03]: The air smells stronger now, a mixture of salt, water, and petrocore.
[SPEAKER_03]: The cold front must be approaching.
[SPEAKER_03]: Tae-un worries it may rain again, but he doesn't open his eyes to check.
[SPEAKER_03]: Something tells him not to.
[SPEAKER_03]: Like, it's safer if he keeps them cold, or it keeps them closed, though he doesn't know why he'd need to be kept safe.
[SPEAKER_03]: Save from what?
[SPEAKER_03]: The wind?
[SPEAKER_03]: Open your eyes, Taehyung.
[SPEAKER_03]: The wind whisper softly, alluring.
[SPEAKER_03]: Attemptation so sweet that Taehyung feels himself falling into it.
[SPEAKER_03]: See me.
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm scared.
[SPEAKER_03]: Taehyung whisperes with the shiver.
[SPEAKER_03]: He texts his hands between his thighs and holds his breath when he feels something caress his jaw.
[SPEAKER_03]: A light pressure like an index finger trailing from his earlobe to his chin.
[SPEAKER_03]: Why are you scared?
[SPEAKER_03]: I love you, my Tay.
[SPEAKER_03]: The light sweeps back, or the light touched sweeps back along his jaw, and then trails down Tay on his throat until the collar of his jacket stops it.
[SPEAKER_03]: His wind loves him.
[SPEAKER_03]: I would never hurt you, no open your eyes.
[SPEAKER_03]: Cold hands gently cradle Tay on his face, palms to his cheeks.
[SPEAKER_03]: The hands are soft, slightly damp, and very much real.
[SPEAKER_03]: The wind can't have hands, he tells himself.
[SPEAKER_03]: The wind is just wind, Tae Young's stomach turns, tumbling like it does when his father's boat hits a patch of rocky waves, sending fish flopping onto the bed of the boat and making Tae Young's boots slide against the aluminum.
[SPEAKER_03]: With his heart fluttering like a cage-tumming bird, Tae Young slowly opens his eyes.
[SPEAKER_03]: The wind is not air, but a young man with eyes, a murky green like the sea, who sears at Taehyung with parted glossy lips.
[SPEAKER_03]: Taehyung catches a glimpse of sharp and teeth behind those luscious lips, but he can't focus on only one thing when there's so much of the man to take in.
[SPEAKER_03]: His shockingly white hair is massively braided with strips of seaweed and strings of pink pearls and draped over a shoulder, his naked shoulder and tang realizes the man is shirtless.
[SPEAKER_03]: Little jewels like pearls and other shimmery gems decorate the man's chest, outlining his sides until they reach his waist.
[SPEAKER_03]: Covered in green scales that gleamed despite the lack of sun.
[SPEAKER_03]: Tegang and Hale's sharply when his eyes finally land on the sparkly fish tail draped over the side of the dog.
[SPEAKER_03]: I panic swells and Tegang's chest.
[SPEAKER_03]: He gaspsed, although he's been pulled under water.
[SPEAKER_03]: The moisture in the air like ocean in his lungs.
[SPEAKER_03]: Who are you?
[SPEAKER_03]: I am your win, Tae-young, the man says with a small smile.
[SPEAKER_03]: Then he slides one hand up Tae-young's face to tuck a strand of hair behind his ear and he makes a sound like a cat purine.
[SPEAKER_03]: But in the water, I'm called Jimin.
[SPEAKER_03]: Jimin.
[SPEAKER_03]: Jim and Taehyung whispers, Jim and it's such a soft name.
[SPEAKER_03]: Taehyung likes how his lips pucker when he says it.
[SPEAKER_03]: Why don't you ever tell me your name?
[SPEAKER_03]: Why don't you show yourself to me?
[SPEAKER_03]: Jim and gives Taehyung a sad smile.
[SPEAKER_03]: I was scared to
[SPEAKER_03]: Taehyung's heart still beats frantically in his chest, but he calms down as Jim and plays with his hair, caressing and running as fingers through the strands.
[SPEAKER_03]: Jim and calls out Taehyung's name whispering it like, only a secret they know.
[SPEAKER_03]: My Tae, my sweet Tae, my precious Taehyungy, so happy to finally touch you.
[SPEAKER_03]: Taehyung finds himself closing his eyes and leaning into Jimin's touch, letting out a quiet whimper when Jimin slowly scratches his scalp, hypnotizing.
[SPEAKER_03]: The word bubbles up to the surface of Taehyung's mind.
[SPEAKER_03]: His thoughts murky like the water beneath the dock, the wind, Jimin is hypnotizing.
[SPEAKER_03]: Why?
[SPEAKER_03]: Taehyung asks without explanation, but Jimin knows everything.
[SPEAKER_03]: I want to keep you.
[SPEAKER_03]: Hmm, Taehyung lifts his head, realizing that he has it rested on Jimin's shoulder.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's comfortable in Jimin's embrace, even though Taehyung's pants are thoroughly soaked from the rain and ocean water, and Jimin's scales feel strange under his fingers when he skips them along Jimin's waist.
[SPEAKER_03]: I want to keep you my day.
[SPEAKER_03]: I can't let you go.
[SPEAKER_03]: Keep me aware, Taehyung asks with glossy around eyes.
[SPEAKER_03]: He points to the waves lapping at the dock in there.
[SPEAKER_03]: Jim and Lix's lips, and Taehyung feels his stomach churn and dip like the climax of a roller coaster or a free fall from a plane.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yes, Jim and runs his thumb along the apple of Tae Young's cheek.
[SPEAKER_03]: His touches just as soothing as it is terrifying.
[SPEAKER_03]: Tae Young can't comprehend how that is.
[SPEAKER_03]: Will you come with me?
[SPEAKER_03]: Tae Young can't.
[SPEAKER_03]: He can't survive in the ocean.
[SPEAKER_03]: Doesn't his wind know that?
[SPEAKER_03]: But they're still the pole.
[SPEAKER_03]: The source of its sinks lower until its tugging at Taeyang's belly, making him heat up despite the temperature quickly dropping around them.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's almost night.
[SPEAKER_03]: He's unsure if he's already misdener or if his mother is searching for him.
[SPEAKER_03]: Looking over a shoulder, he sees nothing.
[SPEAKER_03]: Here's nothing but the chirp of goals and the crash of waves.
[SPEAKER_03]: Taeyang, Jimman's fingers curl around Taeyang's chin and force Taeyang to face him again.
[SPEAKER_03]: The color of his eyes seemed to have darkened with the sky, a light gray now when it was once green.
[SPEAKER_03]: Taehyung's name sounds so pretty, coming from Jimin's pillowy lips, lips glossy and pink like the pearls in his hair and the gem's decorated his body.
[SPEAKER_03]: Taehyung feels the pole and he wonders if it's Jimin giving him sea legs, even though they're both sitting down.
[SPEAKER_03]: Something is terrifying about his beauty, something uncanny, like an android that looks a little too real or the feeling you get when you realize a photograph is actually a painting.
[SPEAKER_03]: Still beautiful, but deceptive.
[SPEAKER_03]: There's something scary about Jimin that Taehyung can't fully understand, but for it slips through his fingers like sand and Taehyung wants to kiss him.
[SPEAKER_03]: I want to kiss you, he says.
[SPEAKER_03]: Not knowing why he admits it out loud.
[SPEAKER_03]: He can't stop himself from leaning into Jimin when he pulls Taehyung against him.
[SPEAKER_03]: My sweet Tae, Jimin murmurs into Taehyung's mouth.
[SPEAKER_03]: Jimin's tongue is slippery and tastes like salt water, but its warm and deaf does it flicks against Taehyung's lips and slithers a long Taehyung's tongue.
[SPEAKER_03]: His hands tangle and tangs hair yanking his head to the side to deepen the kiss.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's fast and desperate, tangling, moaning and gasping into German, Jim and taking it with bites into tangs, lips and groans of his own.
[SPEAKER_03]: Taehyung has never been kissed like this, held so gently but ravaged.
[SPEAKER_03]: His lungs burn as he drowns in his wind.
[SPEAKER_03]: Taehyung groans when Jimin releases him only to suck on his neck just above his jacket collar.
[SPEAKER_03]: Taehyung can do nothing but let Jimin pull his head back as he watches the stars come into view when he's laid flat on his back.
[SPEAKER_03]: Waters soaks in his hair, making the strands turn black and Taehyung's body shivers from the cold.
[SPEAKER_03]: His only his torso is relatively dry.
[SPEAKER_03]: Gemin, Taeyeon calls out, voice gravely, nearly stuck in the back of his throat.
[SPEAKER_03]: I can't, I can't survive in the ocean he thinks, and can't speak because Gemin suddenly straddles his thighs.
[SPEAKER_03]: Stay with me Taeyeon, Gemin pleads, but it's spoken with an authority Taeyeon can't imagine disobeying.
[SPEAKER_03]: Your legs, Taehyung chokes, and tries to push himself up on his elbows.
[SPEAKER_03]: Jimmins elegant tail is gone.
[SPEAKER_03]: He has legs now, pretty legs with a smattering of green scales that his hips along his calves.
[SPEAKER_03]: Jimming grips Taehyung's hips with his fingers that are greenish at the tips.
[SPEAKER_03]: His nails are sharpened at a point and digging into his skin even through the jacket.
[SPEAKER_03]: If you will not stay with me, let me give my tag gift.
[SPEAKER_03]: Jim and Whisperers, his eyes sparkling like the ocean under the moonlight, tag on nods quickly and squirms beneath him.
[SPEAKER_03]: Something to remember you until I can visit again.
[SPEAKER_03]: Jim and Lix's lips, eyes boring and to tag on, and tag on gets another glimpse of the sharp teeth.
[SPEAKER_03]: He rakes his nails down Jimin's body from his, from, done Taehyung's body, from his hips to the top of his thighs.
[SPEAKER_03]: Taehyung hears the denim rip and fray, but Jimin's nails don't break a skin.
[SPEAKER_03]: You'll never forget me my day.
[SPEAKER_03]: Of course not, Taehyung pants with a heaving chest.
[SPEAKER_03]: He feels wild like an animal being taunted.
[SPEAKER_03]: Your gift, Jim and Wispers as he leans forward, walking his green tipped fingers up to Young's torso until they're hooked around his shoulders.
[SPEAKER_03]: My gift, Taehyung says, Taehyung watches Jim and's eye change shifting from gray to bright white as his pupils turn into pin points.
[SPEAKER_03]: My heart is pierced by cupid.
[SPEAKER_03]: I disdain all glittering gold, Jimminsing softly as he yanks Taehyung into a sitting position and straddles his laps.
[SPEAKER_03]: His lap.
[SPEAKER_03]: There's nothing can console me, but my jolly sailor bold.
[SPEAKER_03]: The song sounds familiar, but Taehyung doesn't know why.
[SPEAKER_03]: The memory sits on the tip of his tongue and dances to the haunting tune of Jimmins' cadence, just out of Taehyung's grasp.
[SPEAKER_03]: He finds that it doesn't matter, not the memory, nor anything else.
[SPEAKER_03]: His hair, it hangs in ringlets, his eyes as black as coal, my happiness attend him wherever he may go.
[SPEAKER_03]: Teyang's head lulls to one side, he no longer holds it up, he just lets Jim and's warm palms squeeze his cheeks to keep him upright.
[SPEAKER_03]: He goes for Jim and moves him, tips his head backwards when Jim and wants to stare into his eyes.
[SPEAKER_03]: From Tower Hill to Blackwall, I'll wander weep and moan, all from my jolly sailor until he sails home.
[SPEAKER_03]: Jimman's nails puncture Taehyung's jacket.
[SPEAKER_03]: He hooks his fingers through the material as he wraps his legs around Taehyung's waist.
[SPEAKER_03]: Before Taehyung has a chance to do anything but let out a startled gasp, Jimman falls backward into the water, taking Taehyung with him.
[SPEAKER_03]: There's no splash, I know.
[SPEAKER_03]: There's no splash when their body slipped past the ocean surface.
[SPEAKER_03]: Only bubbles that pattern, the otherwise still waters.
[SPEAKER_03]: The waves no longer lap against the Kim family's dock.
[SPEAKER_03]: The wind no longer speaks.
[SPEAKER_00]: That's the end.
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, I know.
[SPEAKER_00]: I know.
[SPEAKER_00]: Siren Jimin.
[SPEAKER_00]: That's what I've been screaming in my head this entire time is.
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_00]: Siren Jimin.
[SPEAKER_00]: We've talked so much about Siren Jimin.
[SPEAKER_00]: It suits him.
[SPEAKER_03]: It does suit him.
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_03]: They're like the allure, but like the danger at the same time.
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_03]: And Taehyung is just helpless to it.
[SPEAKER_03]: So yeah.
[SPEAKER_00]: I had never heard.
[SPEAKER_00]: You didn't really know.
[SPEAKER_00]: I love this description of everything you could so perfectly envision what was going on.
[SPEAKER_03]: I agree this author gave me that augusty did such a good job with it.
[SPEAKER_03]: So yeah, I thoroughly enjoyed it.
[SPEAKER_03]: I'm glad you liked it too.
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_03]: I won another vehement.
[SPEAKER_03]: I wanted something water and I saw this and I was like, yeah, holy shit.
[SPEAKER_00]: Fantastic.
[SPEAKER_00]: The thing about this fanfic file series to you guys is that we didn't even intend for this to be beach themed.
[SPEAKER_00]: We just didn't have any kind of topic.
[SPEAKER_00]: We just chose to pick fix on our own and then realize that we were both inspired by all of the beach content and it just happened to me.
[SPEAKER_03]: The theme.
[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
[SPEAKER_03]: It's what happened.
[SPEAKER_03]: I mean, I think I just loved that that happens.
[SPEAKER_03]: Like this would be, yes, it gives us and what we're able to do with it.
[SPEAKER_03]: So we are excited to see what other maybe lives or posts or videos or whatever that will have to be able to talk about with you all next episode.
[SPEAKER_03]: But we hope that you enjoyed this installment of the fanfic files.
[SPEAKER_03]: We had a lot of fun finding these effects and sharing them with you.
