On Sunday I wrote five ficlets for Poetic Fic Meme. I snatched it from two people on my reading list: [personal profile] shipperslist and [personal profile] extrapenguin.

1: Pick five fandoms and list them in alphabetical order.

2: Click to receive a Random Famous Poem. Write down the 5th line (yes, even if it's an e.e. cummings poem and you wind up with an apostrophe). Repeat five times and list them in alphabetical order.

3: Write a very quick 50-word half-drabble for each fandom (try to do it all in one sitting), using the line from the poem as a prompt. (You don't have to include it in the half-drabble - it's just inspiration.)

But I ignored 50 words limit and followed extarpenguin’s example by increasing the number of words – in my case to a double drabble or a triple drabble. 😊

I was pleased with how they all came out, so yesterday I cleaned them up a little and posted them all on AO3. I chose these five fandoms: Bump Up Business, Chief Kim, Meet You At The Blossom, Perfect 10 Liners, Vincenzo.

And last week I posted my Perfect 10 Liners Arc/Arm fic:

Summary:

One of many, many things Arm loved about Arc was his ability to pick Arm up so easily and carry him wherever he wanted to carry Arm. Like their bed, for instance, which was usually a prelude to a lot of very pleasurable things you could do in a bed while being naked with your lover. Arm liked to take advantage of that amazing ability of Arc sometimes, and who could blame him for that.


Now I’m going back to writing my next Klao/Warich fic. And to deliberating if I want to sign up for Bite-Sized Fandoms Exchange. 😊

I posted two fics this month. One is my super self-indulgent Big Dragon mafia AU and the longest fic I’ve ever written. And the second is a treat for Battleship. Someone requested my favorite brothers from Vincenzo, so of course I had to write them a fic. 😊

Summary:

According to Yai, being the second child of Barom Singhawatthanachok the boss of one of the less important crime families in Bangkok had a lot of perks. Yai liked his life. It was fun. At least until Mangkorn Akira Chitsanupongkul came back to Thailand after spending a year abroad. Mangkorn, who was the only son of the boss of the biggest and most feared mafia clan. Mangkorn, who was a constant thorn in Yai’s side. Yai hated his guts. He hated that stupid Mangkorn with his broad shoulders and his sexy smirk on his handsome face. And his large, toned and unfairly alluring body. His... other things were probably large, too.

Because yeah, Yai hated Mangkorn. He also really, really wanted to get fucked by Mangkorn. To get fucked hard and deep until he forgot his own name. He had an inkling Mangkorn would be good at this type of fucking.

Summary:

Han Seok later couldn’t recall what exactly happened. He just knew that one moment he stood there looking at Han Seo, and the next he staggered as his hand shook, the globe falling down and rolling somewhere. He realized Han Seo’s fingers were now gripping the wrist of his hand tightly. Han Seok looked at his brother. Han Seo’s beautiful eyes were wide open, myriad emotions in them, and his lips were trembling.

‘Hyung,’ Han Seok heard. No, not heard. It was as if the word appeared in his mind, not even a word, more of a feeling, the wave of emotions so strong it left him gasping for breath. Hyung-scared-fear-shelter-want-don’t-want-please.



And now let’s talk about dramas.

The Jungle episodes 9-10

That was pretty good and very entertaining.

Read more with spoilers.So we will have the next two episodes dedicated to Pine and his love interest. And then there will be still four more episodes left. I’ve read somewhere that after all those episodes exploring all the couples backstories the episodes after that will be about the plot concerning all of them. I really hope that it means that we will find out what Hunter deal is. I mean, they all have animal nicknames and he’s called Hunter. And that short talk with Hack in episode 10 only wetted by appetite for more about Hunter.

Hack: What do you want? You know everything here. You see everything that happens here. Sometimes you show support. Sometimes, you hinder it. What do you want?

Yes, Hunter please tell us what do you want. I wanna know so bad. 😊

And I was sure that I wouldn’t be interested in Nathee’s backstory, since I found him kinda boring so far. But I loved these episodes. Mostly because his love interest Florence is a delight. She’s honest and playful, and bold. She knows what she wants and she goes straight for it. I’ve only seen the actress as Torfun in The Tale of Thousand Stars, and she was good and I liked her. But she’s so great here.

There is a scene when a drunk unhinged guy starts to wave his knife around and tries to take Florence hostage, and she just deals with him swiftly (by elbowing the guy in the gut, and throwing him over her shoulder) without waiting for Nathee and Hunter to rescue her. And later Nathee is the one who’s good with the needle, and he saws her ripped dress.

And like I said Nathee wasn’t that interesting to me when we just saw his sexy playboy persona, but during the day he’s just a IT nerd, who’s all soft and unassuming, and he sleeps on the job whenever he can. It’s so cute. And he’s clearly so smitten with Florence, but pretends not to be. And she’s definitely a pursuer in that relationship. And I’m charmed and cheering for them to be happy together forever. 😊

And at first I wasn’t that interested in Hack/Irin, although actors have nice chemistry and they do look hot together. But it’s so tragic and messed up with Irin still hung up on Pine despite him rejecting her over and over again, and then her using Hack for meaningless sex without regard for his feelings. And Hack trying so desperately to resist falling for her, because he knows it’s hopeless. And somehow all that melodramatic angst got me invested. 😊


My Dearest with my beloved Nam Goong Min is getting a lot of buzz, but I decided to wait for all the episodes to air before watching. Because it sounds very angsty and serious, and I’m not in the right headspace for serious angst right now.

But I think I’ll try Behind Your Touch next. It’s on Netflix here and I dismissed it before because its premise made me cringe. It’s about a kind veterinarian, who works in a peaceful rural village, and who starts working with a detective to solve a serial murder case. She possesses a special psychometry superpower – when she touches the butt of a person or animal, she is able to see into their past. It sounds so off-putting to me and like an excuse for a lot of crude jokes. But the reviews of the first few episodes all say that it’s surprisingly good and funny despite the weird premise. So, who knows, it might be a great drama to watch in the evenings when one is tired after work.

Heartbeat episodes 11-12

That was a bit disappointing for me.


More with spoilers hereI don’t like that they turned the second female lead into a mean and jealous villain as soon as she was rejected (and very gently at that) by the male lead. I thought you were better that that, show.

Also there was a lot of cuteness for our main couple, so I expect a lot of angst in a next few episodes before the happy ending. Not sure if I want that.


The Jungle episodes 3-4

So ridiculous, but very entertaining. And I really hope that Hunter is the mastermind behind everything. I would love to see Mix as a villain. I’m sure he would be great.


The Uncanny Counter season 2

I watched the three available episodes (it’s on Netflix), but I don’t know – it doesn’t work for me as well as the 1st season did. So Mun is overpowered, and the villains are rather meh for now. And I admit I have troubles with accepting Kang Ki Young as a villain. He’s a great actor, but before I only saw him as a dorky sidekick in Bring It On, Ghost and a kind boss in Extraordinary Attorney Woo. On paper his character is the kind of villain I really should like, but something isn’t working for me here. Ah well, it’s still entertaining and funny, and full of found family feels, so for now I will be watching.


Also My Dearest with my beloved Nam Goong Min started airing, there are two episodes on VIKI already, but I’m waiting with watching until a few more episodes are available.


As for recs – fanvids first.

Happy New Year, everyone! May this year be better than the previous one. :)

And first let me tell that it was +15°C today. On the 1st of January in Poland. I don’t really mind that much, it was a lovely, sunny day today, but come on, weather, really, what are you doing? ;)

And now a bit of Yuletide bragging. Because I wrote four fics. I wrote fucked-up Vincenzo incest for my assignment, and at first I planned to write two treats – the second Vincenzo fic and While You Were Sleeping fic. But then I fell in love with Big Dragon and I saw that there was one request for that fandom in Yuletide, and I really wanted to write a fic for it. And I did.

Fics I wrote )

I still have a few fics left for reading in the collection. And a few lovely comments to respond to. So I’m going to go and do that now. :)

I finished The Fiery Priest. I enjoyed it a lot and it made me fall in love with Kim Nam Gil. But now Vincenzo really looks to me like the result of screenwriter Park Jae Bum thinking “hmm, let’s write The Fiery Priest again, but darker”. :) There are so many similarities.

More with spoilers for both dramas behind the cut.

I’m very glad I finally watched this drama, since there is supposed to be the 2nd season, although I couldn’t find any specific information yet.

And I found out while browsing Youtube for BTS stuff and fanvids that the whole drama is available there for free with English subtitles. The playlist is here.


And I have two recs for fanvids showing what a badass Kim Hae Il is:

Light Em Up

Believer


And because of my new found love for Kim Nam Gil yesterday I watched Memoir of a Murderer, which is available to buy on DVD in Poland – it’s a movie where he plays a psychopathic serial killer. And I started Pandora, also a movie, available on Netflix here, where he is again a good guy trying to save a small Korean town during the serious accident at a nuclear power plant. I enjoyed Memoir of a Murderer a lot, I like when pretty boys play psychopathic serial killers. :) Pandora is a bit boring, but I plan to finish it today.

I’m tired and a bit depressed – too much work and too many health problems lately. And on Monday I have to go to Warsaw for work for a few days, and I don’t wanna. Gah... But at least it’s finally weekend and I have two days of watching and reading and maybe hopefully even writing before me. I had such a nice burst of creativity with fics for Guardian wishlist. I miss that feeling.


I finished the 2nd season of Hospital Playlist yesterday. And it was as delightful as the 1st season was. It’s so optimistic and heartwarming and sweet. It made me cry a few times, and it made me laugh often. It was a perfect show to watch in the evenings when I was tired after work.

Now I think I will finish Mad Dog, which I started watching before Hospital Playlist became available on Netflix here. It’s a Korean drama about a former insurance investigator from a big company, who creates his own private investigation team to solve many different insurance crimes, after his wife and son die in a suspicious airplane crash. Woo Do Hwan plays one of the male leads and I watched this drama mainly for him. I mean I am interested in the main mystery, but mostly I’m interested in staring at Woo Do Hwan, admiring his acting talent, and sighing “wow, he’s so beautiful” at least twice during each episode. :)

And the next in my queue is Hometown Cha-Cha-Cha with Kim Seon Ho and his adorable dimples.


As for recs here they are.

Again I feel like the luckiest recipient ever. Because I got two wonderful fics for my two small fandoms in RMSE. Seriously, they are great and I already re-read both of them.


A Preview of Coming Attraction (4185 words)
Fandom: 김과장 | Good Manager (TV)
Rating: Mature
Relationships: Kim Sung Ryong/Seo Yool
Additional Tags: Enemies to Allies To Lovers, episode 15, Time Travel, Comfort, First time (for one of them), Car Sex, Treat
Summary: “There’s no buses here! No cabs either! You can’t just leave me, you jerk!” Kim Sungryong screamed at Seo Yul’s tail lights as they faded into the night. “Take me with you!”

Rating: Teen And Up Audiences
Relationships: Lu Zhigang/Sun Boxiang
Additional Tags: University era, Long-Distance Relationship, Idiots in Love, Missing Scenes, Filling in the Time Jump
Summary: Zhi Gang prides himself on having a reasonably advanced awareness of the workings of his own mind. He realized very early into their relationship that the reason he constantly highlights Bo Xiang’s being younger than him is precisely that Zhi Gang is meant to be the adult. The one with experience, the one with a solid head on his shoulders, thinking with something beyond his heart and the passion that exists between his thighs.

The problem's always been that, at least where Bo Xiang is concerned, Zhi Gang’s little more than a teenager himself.

He's never cared for anyone this much, never desired anyone this much, and it would be terrifying if Bo Xiang didn't seem to make it his entire life's purpose to make sure Zhi Gang knows he feels exactly the same, all the time.



Other good things are mostly connected to Korean dramas.

Here on youtube is a discussion of episodes 1-5 of Vincenzo with Korean-American screenwriter Christina Strain. It’s 2 hours long, but very interesting. Also Christina Strain clearly loves Taecyeon and Jang Han Seok, so she’s my kind of person. :)

I’m also really glad that falling in love with Taecyeon in Vincenzo lead me to falling in love with 2PM. I watch so many vids (official vids, vids from concerts, BTS stuff) these days. They always cheer me up. Taecyeon is my favorite, of course, but all members seem like sweet and nice guys. And they are such good friends.



I finished Arthdal Chronicles a few days ago, but I can’t stop thinking about it, because I really loved it. And I’ve re-watched my favorite episode 15 twice already. I wish COVID didn’t mess with making of season 2. For now it’s still announced that there will be the 2nd season, but nobody knows when it will start filming. And Song Joong Ki films another new drama right now.

But I have a rec – a fantastic gen fanvid by TheMeaninglessArt, full of spoilers of course:

Arth, The Prelude to All Legends - Let Me Be Your Hero



After I finished Arthdal Chronicles I watched the 1st episode of Tale of the Nine Tailed. It was a bit boring and I admit that I don’t like Lee Dong Wook much. Maybe I’ll come back to it later, but for now I decided to try The Devil Judge. And that one was more successful in keeping my attention. I like stories about dystopias and it has Kim Min Jung (whom I loved in Mr. Sunshine) as one of the female leads. She’s great here, too. And I like Ji Sung as the titular character. He’s very pretty and charismatic. And it’s very slashy, straight from the first episode. So that’s what I’ll be watching for now.

Apart from that I’m waiting for the 2nd season of Hospital Playlist to appear on Netflix here, and for Hometown Cha-Cha-Cha - a new drama with Kim Seon Ho and his adorable dimples. :) I saw a few teasers and it looks so cute and heart-warming. Here is the latest one.

I’m also waiting for D.P. – a new drama with Jung Hae In about a soldier who gets assigned to the Deserter Pursuit unit. All I’ve read about it made it sound like a serious drama, but this official teaser makes it look more like a comedy to me? It’s a bit weird but still I want to check it out for Jung Hae In and his cute, sunny smile. :)

RL could be better, but luckily fandom delivers a lot of pretty, shiny things to cheer me up. Here they are.


Trailer for 2PM’s upcoming album “Must”

Junho and Taecyeon both look very good. Taecyeon also cheers me up in Bring It On, Ghost – a Korean drama about a guy, who can see ghosts, and a ghost of a high school girl, who can’t remember how she died. I’ve watched 6 episodes for now and I really enjoy it. The main villain is boring, so I fast-forward through most of his scenes, but the rest is rather cute and Taecyeon is the cutest. Thanks for another accurate drama rec, china-shop. 😊



First 8 minutes of In The Heights

It looks great and I can’t wait to watch it. The Polish premiere is in the beginning of August.



Amazing general Vincenzo fanvid Battle Royale



And a few wonderful fanvids about my third favorite Kdrama villain Jang Han Seok from Vincenzo. The first two places are occupied by two villains played by my beloved Nam Goong Min in Remember and The Girl Who Sees Smells, and I don’t think anyone could ever outshine them for me. 😊

After a long deliberation I decided not to sign up for RMSE after all. I will try to treat, there are some good prompts already. But I’m afraid 1000 words could become too big of a commitment for me right now with my erratic health, and treats can be shorter. Treating for Multifandom Drabble Exchange went well (at least I hope so 😊), so I will stick with that for now.


As for recs – here are two. The first is The Sleuth of Ming Dynasty fic from Hurt Comfort Exchange 2021:


nowhere but footfall to the path (6500 words) by Anonymous
Fandom: 成化十四年 | The Sleuth of the Ming Dynasty (TV)
Rating: General Audiences
Warnings: Creator Chose Not To Use Archive Warnings

Characters: Wang Zhi, Tang Fan, Sui Zhou
Additional Tags: Hurt/Comfort, Hand injury, Captivity, Post-Canon, Pre-Slash, Broken Bones, Threats of Violence, Pining, Feeding
Summary:

It is, Wang Zhi thinks, entirely too early for him to begin hallucinating. Sure, he already spent more than three days in this miserable cell, and the bruises and welts left by his captors ache; the food has been scarce and the water even scarcer. But all of it combined should not result in him being so far gone he would hear Tang Fan's voice. Tang Fan is in the capital, safe, solving cases and striking confused horror in the hearts of any wrongdoers, cherished and protected by his family. Tang Fan is -

- dragged into the stinking, narrow space of Wang Zhi's prison, arguing with the guards on the way. Something about the proper treatment of His Majesty's subjects.




The next rec is for a post-canon Vincenzo fic, and it goes behind the cut, because I gush a little and there are spoilers for the drama and for the fic.

I also found out that Taecyeon was in a boy band with Junho (Seo Yul from Chief Kim), and I might have spent an hour today watching 2PM vids of youtube. And now I want Chief Kim/Vincenzo crossover AU where Seo Yul and Jang Han Seok are in a boy band together. 😊

My favorite 2PM song for now is My House.

Here is the official vid on yotube.


And the same song from the concert in 2020 in two versions:

That have been bad few days. Wednesday was the worst, but I’m still very weak and feeling dizzy. Today I’m feeling a bit better thankfully. I think it’s some post-Covid symptoms. I was ok in April when I was working from home. But I went back to the office in May (it was my decision, I thought I was fine, or at least fine enough) and I think I overdid it with work for the last two weeks and now I’m paying the price.

Vincenzo was my one bright spot in these last few days. I’ve watched 10 episodes already. And I love it. It’s ridiculous, shameless and entertaining. And Song Joong Ki is very pretty and very good. One of the supporting characters describes him once as “doe-eyed and handsome”. And he is that for sure.

More with major spoilers and my questionable shipping preferences below. :)
