ain't nobody here but... For all things fannish. These days I ride hard for the pits of DMBJ and am emotionally compromised by Min Yoongi (and the rest of BTS). (Username acquired pre-1998 Gap swing dance commercial, tyvm. Same one ever since.)

I’m sorry; was I supposed to actually accomplish something today, instead of just sitting around thinking about Yoongi and his faux-disappointed face on the first two demands for us to make some noise, then giving an Agust D roar on his third demand, followed by a little grin and a thumbs up?

Not that there was any doubt, but Hobi is 1000% the dancer who keeps going full steam into the wings. He starts his moves well before a camera is anywhere near him and keeps going well after they refocus.

Bus driver: Is this [line] for clothes? One or two people: it’s for BTS! Bus driver: confused noises A garble of people: BTS / concert / merch / fan chant Bus driver, enlightened: ohhh, is that the six guys? The entire line in unison: SEVEN

Zhang Qishan throttling a shirtless Wu Laogou in a bath, simultaneous 7-part dick swinging on instagram, AND concerts all in the same week?? My fandoms are conspiring against me. I think this is what they meant by having the vapors.

Also consider Sweet Rehab, a Parisian patisserie three blocks west. $$$ but delicious. The coco bongo is a freakin’ tropical delight. Then get matcha one block south at Sorate. Or two blocks north for stupid good Italian sandwiches at All’ Antico Vinaio. Or Mughal chai at Cafe Habibti. Or or or…

if anyone's visiting for the nj shows, i highly recommend making time to visit the earth room on wooster street in the city. it is free and very namjoon coded. after, grab a treat at dominique ansel or ladurée, both just a couple blocks away (tae coded, imo!) www.diaart.org/visit/visit-...

A local coffee shop just posted their summer specials, and one of them is a Dirty Shirley: espresso, grenadine, sparkling water, and a cherry. I, being me, liked the insta post announcing this and commented “HI ZEV!!”

The thing that they don’t tell you about getting into the travel industry is that if you’re a fan, especially one whose blorbos are conceivably wealthy, is that you will end up with dozens on dozens of bookmarks of places your clients will never afford but are *perfect* settings for fic.

So do we think Tangie is the sort to loudly ignore Yoongi for at least an hour after arriving home to make sure his displeasure Is Known, or do we think he flings himself bodily at Yoongi’s ankles, yelling about how he SUFFERED and STARVED and how Yoongi must begin making it up to him immediately?

Finally getting around to watching the BTS Netflix doc in bits and pieces. I cannot help but compare some of the dinner scenes to the latest Run episodes. I want to combine the lighting of the doc with the laughter and bullshittery of Run. Hire the lighting director for Run! Budget schmudget!

Okay, look. If it were me? If I could justify a plane ticket to Vegas? If I could use one of these tickets I’m trying to offload from several someones who bought while intentionally trying to profit off of army? This is what I would do.

OKAY. Through a complicated series of events, I now have eight tickets to Las Vegas Arirang shows on days three and four. I am getting them taken off the resale sites where they are listed for $$$, and I would like to sell them to army for face value. Three pairs, two singles. Mostly lower bowl.

Thank you, Taehyung and Hobi, for providing visual evidence of them getting ribs in Texas, but I am sadly disappointed in the lack of tacos. In El Paso! (If I learn there was zero off-camera taco action last week, I will cry.) But if I don’t get some quality Bangtan taco content from Mexico City…

Tour time is a gift, even when a show isn’t live-streamed. It is a joy waking up to a skyline full of squee and clips. (Also it’s only April. IT’S ONLY APRIL. I fear August in the best possible ways.)

I am going to run out of Dungeon Crawler Carl audiobooks before the eighth one is released next month, and I am unsure how to cope. That’s my emotional support sentient Persian cat wearing a tiara and shooting lasers from her eyes as she rides a velociraptor!
