Women Stories Matter

truth is there is not a single ewan mitchell character i would not smash

speaking your native language in their presence ♡

a/n. i had so much fun writing it as someone who's first language isn't english lmao

┆彡 BANG CHAN [ 방찬 ]

YOUR #1 FAN

he kinda knows how it feels to speak another language abroad - but he had felix

so he encourages you to talk to him even if he doesn't understand a thing

plot twist!! he does!!

yes, the second he found out that you speak [language name] he started taking duolingo lessons and watched youtube videos to improve!!

and yes, you knew i mean the green ass owl was spamming his phone more than the kids

and trust me, he learned a lot.

"--so the girl came up to me, gave me a flower and said i'm really pretty!" you finished telling the story that happened today: a cute, 5 year old girl indeed said that. you were about to translate, when chan spoke up... in [language name].

"awh, that's adorable!" he grinned and watched your jaw drop in shock "and in fact... you are really pretty"

"CHAN!" you grinned and started peppering his face in kisses as he giggled "you're getting better and better!"

that was also a reason why he wanted to learn your language.

but after some time you offered him that you can teach him and he has never been happier!!!

┆彡 CHANGBIN [ 창빈 ]

now...

when you mumble something to yourself or talk to someone in your native language he'd instantly smirk and look at you with literal hearts in in his eyes

but inside...

HE'S SCREAMING CRYING SHAKING

he finds it the hottest thing ever.

and you're mad at someone (or at him) and scream/scoff something... we must stay focused, brothers. we. must. stay. focused.

and yes, he learned a couple of compliments just to leave you stunned as you make him (even if you don't know that)

"asshole" you scoffed, crossing your arms on your chest as han ate last piece of pizza.

"what was that?" jisung asked with furrowed brows and full mouth.

"you're hot" changbin suddenly said in your native language and your head snapped towards him, eyes widening.

"what did he say?" han kept on asking questions. changbin just smirked and you were left speachless.

"you're hot as well, baby" you played along after your head cleared a bit.

"are they insulting each other?" han mumbled and you just laughed.

┆彡 LEE KNOW [ 리노 ]

honestly? he'd be pissed off he can't understand you while you're talking to your parents or friends on the phone

because he has a feeling and he's right you're talking about him

that's why he started learning it.

and yes, he dragged han into it as well so he could practice his pronunciation 

but besides that?? it always leaves him speachless

you can insult him to his face and he'd find it hot

and if someone laughs at you or points out your accent or the fact that you speak your first language... well, they're already dead.

HE MELTS ON THE SPOT WHEN HE CATCHES YOU TALKING IN BABY VOICE IN YOUR LANGUAGE TO HIS CATS

*ahem* yeah, coming back...

"no, mom! i swear! we don't live together... yet! okay, relax i was kidding!" you scoffed and looked at lee know, sending him a soft smile "i mean, why not? first of all, his cats. i sent you pictures, you must admit they're beyond adorable. second of all i... well-- mom! i love him and i think it's only a matter of time when i move in to his place-"

"you're more than welcome to do it right away" lee know said in your language, smirk growing on his lips.

"what? no, mom he's not..." you mumbled

"hello mrs l/n!" he said, yet again, in your language.

"i gotta go!" you scoffed and hung up, throwing your phone over to the couch "what was that?!"

"it was me accepting your offer of us living together" he grinned, switching back.

"dumbass" you mumbled and placed a long, sweet, sweeeeeet kiss on his lips.

┆彡 FELIX [ 필릭스 ]

THIS BALL OF SUNSHINE RAINBOWS GLITTER JOY AND HAPPINESS

he'd support you endlessly and tell you over and over not to feel shy to speak in your language

he's lovestruck when you do so

hearts in his eyes pt2

and before you know it, he's learning it too. but with your help from the beginnig!!

he's so excited about it and as he infects others with his joy - he also spreads his knowledge as well

so yeah, the other members know basics of your language too.

he'd write notes on sticky notes and leave them in random places and it just makes you melt (even if there are mistakes - that's normal, he's still learning and trying his best!!)

"i made your favourite cookies" felix said in your first language, bursting into the room.

"yum! can i have some too?" chan asked in your language. your jaw dropped, eyes jumping from chan to felix with boyish smiles on their faces

"hey, don't forget about me!" i.n shouted in [language name] as well.

"what the f-" you muttered and seungmin's hand flew over to cover your mouth as felix approached you, laughing

"no cursing in this household!" seungmin said and after stealing a cookie, he ran away.

"what just happened?" you asked felix in english. he placed a kiss on your nose and just sent you a mischievous smile.

"enjoy the cookies, dear" he said in your native language, giving you one of his baked goods.

┆彡 HAN [ 한 ]

the first time he hears you speaking your native language is in the common room

everyone was there as you kicked the door wide open, jumping and screaming something not quite understandable

then he realised. and he froze for like,, good 15 minutes

MANS WAS SHOCKED

and from then he just wants you to hear you speak your native language 24/7

he gave up on learing it though (he still tries but not as eager as before)

but! he did learn some jokes and he tells them at random times

members tease him about he just stops functionating when you say something in [langauge name] but he's just too stunned to speak

loves your accent and the way your voice slightly changes when you speak it too <33

"i forgot the word... uhmm..." you whined and frowned, thinking out loud in your native language "not lovely... not scary either... shoot"

i.n shook his head as he nudged changbin to look at han. here he goes again.

eyes widened, mouth slightly open and watching you in awe like a kid staring at a candy in a candystore.

"got it! approachable!" you switched back, nodding your head and looking at jisung "what?"

"nothing" he smiled innocently, shaking his head. gosh, he's so whipped for you.

┆彡 HYUNJIN [ 현진 ]

insert pikachu surprised face. everytime you speak.

he'll look at you either like you're casting a spell and he's about to die or full of love and admiration. no in between.

but he loves when you speak the language SO MUCH,,

it makes his heart flutter i am not joking.

and your accent makes his heart go brrrrrr

he'll learn some simple and basic phrases, pick up lines and some iconic quotes from movies

loves the way you write in [language name] too. i'm not kidding.

he could watch you for HOURS.

and he's so so so stunned when he watches you text i swear

sucker for you telling him random stories in your language to sleep :(

"hey y/n..." hyunjin leaned over dramatically, resting his head on his hand and propping his body on his elbow. with a corner of his eye he caught you texting your mom in [language name].

"well hello there" you smiled softly and put down your phone, focusing on him. his brows furrowed slightly and he seemed to think aout something deeply.

"i hope you know CPR, because you just took my... breathing-- no, breath away!" he said after a while and started giggling, wrinkles forming around his eyes. your jaw dropped and soon enough you started chuckling too.

"you're so cute, i love you" you mumbled in [language name] and were about to lean in and kiss him when he gasped dramatically, almost falling down from the bed.

"i understood that!" hyunjin called out and grinned like a child. a smile grew on your lips.

"now gimme that kiss!" he hummed and closed the distance between you two.

┆彡 SEUNGMIN [ 승민 ]

will randomly ask you to say someting in your language or to translate something he just said

pretty chill on the outside

inside? seungmin.exe has stopped working

learns curse words (okay, and cute stuff to persuade you)

actually, he learned them from you...

when you're watching a korean movie/drama he insists on having subtitles in your native language

sometimes he repeats some words after you...

... or says these that he remembered out of the blue

"mushroom" seungmin said suddenly, causing you to laugh and the other members to look at him in confusion

"you okay? do you have a cold?" chan stood up and this made you laugh even more, throwing your head back.

"guys, i think something possesed them" lee know mumbled.

after you calmed down, seungmin looked very proud of himself even though he had no idea what he just said.

"so?" he asked, eyes full of joy.

"you said mushroom-- but that was so random, min!" you giggled and the others started laughing too. seungmin took a mental note to remember that.

┆彡 I. N [ 아이엔 ]

whipped. that’s all i have to say.

every time you are about to say something in your native language he shushes everyone!!

will learn it but mostly just to understand the memes and jokes so he can send you some and you two can laugh together!!

when it comes to speaking - he nails it. how? no idea. but he picks up pronunciation pretty quickly!!

his heart goes crazy when you call him nicknames in your native language <3

changed his preferred language in his phone to [language name] and had … a lot of fun with that

won't admit but loves to eavesdrop when you're on the phone, talking in your native language

"uhh y/n...?" i.n entered the living room and came up to you, placing a quick kiss on your forehead before plopping down next to you.

"hmm?" you hummed, looking at him. he grinned and handed you his phone, your eyes immediately noticing that he changed the preffered language to [language name]

"i'm stuck" he laughed, shaking his head.

"dumbass" you tsked in your native language and he'd just smirk. he watched you change the langauge back. "here, it's normal again"

"wait, look--!" i.n showed you his contacts and you melted as soon as you saw your contant number being saved as sweetheart in [language name].

[ masterlist <3 ]

a whole boyfriend happy birthday @scokjinkim ♡♡♡

can we talk about percy uncovering luke’s true intentions and luke coming clean about wanting to recruit percy as a powerful ally and percy obviously refusing despite sympathizing with the cause because he’s just better than that leading to them dueling, with luke about to strike percy down when annabeth’s blade, the one luke gifted her, the same cursed blade that’ll reap his soul 3 years from now, sealed with the promise of family and new beginnings, knocking into backbiter in luke’s hands, and luke turning to stare at her with the most heartbroken, torn expression on his face and annabeth staring him down with more venom than any pit scorpion could’ve had.

can we talk about annabeth standing in the clearing watching the only man she loves, someone who made a promise to protect her and always have her back, someone she’s known for 5 years, looming over a boy she met mere weeks ago, someone who, despite a godly rivalry getting in the way of their initial friendship, fought for her and saved her and chose her over himself time and time again…can we talk about how the defiance in her gaze made it very clear to luke that the person he’s closest to would choose percy over him every time

Ewan nation can you please join me in the screaming room

@HBO don’t HMU.

DEFEND YOUR COUNCIL

“The Pitt”: Jack Abbot’s appreciation post 🔥 original posts: x, x, x, x, x, x, x + other characters: part 1, 2, 3, 5

Seeing the reports yesterday about how as of November 27, while Israel had released 117 hostages as part of the agreement, it has taken 116 new captives from the West Bank should tell you a lot about Israel.

One reporter said something like "for every family celebrating the return of their loved one from Israeli captivity, another family is mourning due to the detention of their loved one by Israel"

Israel hates nothing more than to see Palestinians rejoice, this is why they banned celebrations and distributing sweets in the first place.
