Regulus already thought that being so obsessed with a show like Temptation Island was embarrassing enough, but when Dorcas, his best friend, convinces him to pretend to be a couple so they can join the new season of the show, he fears he might've hit rock bottom.

To make matters worse, he can't even enjoy what he's trying to think of as an improptu vacation, because of course he'd end up falling for one of his fellow participants. And of course said participant would be none other than James Potter, who'd rather cut his own hand than cheat on his perfect girlfriend, and who is also painfully straight.

Check it out on ao3!

Hey my Krazies! How are you? I hope you are doing well on this fine Monday because I have another review for you, so let's get into it

Lyrics:6/10 Guys, I cannot stress this enough..... this is simp behavior, maybe even more than that. I'm not a fan.. I get the whole premise of "pullin up" but can you buy me dinner first? The lyrics are just not or me.

Beat: 5/10 Um. I don't know ya'll. I think it didn't eel original to me. (Nothing is I get that.) But something was off. I can't point it out, it just wasn't for me They harmonized well with the beat but, it wasn't it.

Visuals: 8.5/10 I did like the visuals. It gave early 2000 RnB vibes and I love a good nostalgia. The dancing was good, and the look was ok. I was a little bored, but it was a cute moment.

Overall: 5.2/10 I listened to this song 3-4 times and I can honestly say, this was not it FOR ME. I couldn't wrap my mind around it. But I think the age gap between Natty and Jay Park was on of the factors. Yes they have the same sex appeal, and they are grown adults, I felt like I was looking at my dad and I and honestly, its a "Ugh... Brotha Ugh" moment.

I'm not going to tell you not to listen to this song because that would be unfair to you. In fact, I encourage you to listen and form your own opinion. Sadly though, I will not be putting this on my playlist because this just isn't the vibe. I want to just dance... not fall in love in a taxi. Other than that, please give a listen to Taxi Blurr and watch the video and let me know what YOU think!

Annyeong!

2022 No. 41 “Jaywalkers”

and...like, as an author, it’s a matter of great pride for me that i created such an inherently lovable and heartbreaking character. he’s up there in my top 5 list of best characters i’ve ever written, both in terms of personal evaluation and reader reactions. like, fun. i made Ultimate Boyfriend, then handed him a guitar and wrapped him up in fairy lights. 

but as...the human mess that i was in 2015/2016 simply pouring myself out into tetsurou and tsukki in turns...i don’t think i can express how very fucking much it means to me. like - tetsurou’s whole deal is that he thinks he can’t be loved. to see that i wrote him as a living breathing dear diary and that so, so many people love him so much? it’s wild.
