Examples Minghao + Ocean Vuong The most beautiful part of your body is where it's headed. & remember, loneliness is still time spent with the world. Ocean Vuong - night sky with exit wounds Hoshi/Anyone; "Beauty is terror" Thinking about these two quotes together and the idea of on/off-stage personas: "Beauty is terror. Whatever we call beautiful we tremble before it. And what could be more terrifying or beautiful, to the Greeks to to our own, than to lose control completely?" - Donna Tartt, the Secret Histories "I am calm in everyday life but when I put on my in-ear device and step on stage, I can feel the tension and hear the cheers getting louder as the music gets louder. When the staff tells me it's time to step on stage, I feel something boil inside me. I feel it steaming inside and I think I have to give a burst of something, spill what is inside me." - Hoshi in Hit the Road Ep. 04 Any ship; "It's been so many years" Hello, hello there, is this Martha? This is old Tom Frost And I am calling long distance Don't worry 'bout the cost. 'Cause it's been forty years or more Now Martha please recall Meet me out for coffee Where we'll talk about it all.

Re: [FILL] to know your heart

[deadwine]

naty i love this so much. i love that you chose sc because i feel like it's so much easier to go with yjh or shua for this kind of fear of giving in to being known in your entirety, its such a beautiful sc pov really...so hopeful and that's what makes him all the more fearful about his position in this relationship.

i really like this section:

He was never the older kid who believed in Santa Claus for a tad too long; the one who would find out in public, when classmates or friends discussed it in front of everyone else to show how mature they were.

He never was that kid, but he’s seen it. He’s seen the exact moment the illusion shatters. He’s seen the disappointment and the acceptance.

thank you so much for sharing this!!! so excited to see you here hehe <33

pb!!!!! thanks so much for always being so kind and sweet to me <3 i really was nervous because i don't think i'm that good at keeping things short/concise so this felt quite new to me. also i am obsessed with seungcheol i don't think i would voluntarily choose to not write from his pov (or jun's lol) unless i really had no other option lol but i do agree with you that it's usually jeonghan or joshua that would've been hiding their feelings. i like to think that while he's very open about his feelings he's also very protective of them, hence his reluctance to just open up and kiss his friends lmao

thanks so so much again <3 <3
