Id Like To Turn The BRAVO Et BRAVA To This Fabulous Chapter! The Absolute Emotional Climax Paralleled

I’d like to turn the BRAVO et BRAVA to this fabulous chapter! The absolute emotional climax paralleled in the pas de deux followed by y/n’s crucial realization was simply gorgeous. The flow and ebb of their movements had me gasping and it was so cathartic for y/n to finally put into words the crux of her disjoint with Finn, making all the more spectacularly resonant the core of her relationship with Jimin.

I love love so much how we have seen y/n and Finn slowly grow apart while her and Jimin continuously entangle themselves into the fabric of each other’s lives. The slow build dancing with the gradual crumbling of both y/n’s relationships is truly a work of literary choreography.

I very much appreciate how y/n’s struggle to come to terms with what she knows in her head and what she feels in her heart also seems to be reflected in the nature of dance - what she feels in the rhythms and the emotion clashing with the rigidity of pure ballet technique. To see so many connections and foils scaffolded upon each other has my heart singing and also aching along with the way y/n has been torn.

Thank you for another amazing chapter Shanna!

Warnings: the angst continues, but this time there are glimmers of progress

Word Count: 7,221

Summary: You and Park Jimin have been rivals for as long as you’ve known one another; ever since he tripped you in the front row of your first dance convention. When you graduate from high school and enter Russet Ballet Academy, you tell yourself you’re leaving all past quarrels behind. The main problem with this though, is that your past seems determined not to leave you alone.

Worse still, the obstacles you face while out in the real world might prove more challenging than anything your enemy has to offer.

The Rich Man’s Crochet Club [Master List]

A series of one shots centered around a chaotic group of friends whose friendship began based on one shared commonality: they all were still v i r g i n s.

Headers: by the wonderful, tremendously talented @underthejoon​ (I LOVE THEM ALL)

Member: Namjoon

Word Count: 32,476

Summary:  When they were freshmen in college, Namjoon began a club with his six closest friends. The one thing they all had in common? V i r g i n s as fuck. Obviously, they couldn’t call the club the Virgins Club and so, the Rich Man’s Crochet Club was born. Until time passes and Namjoon is the only one left. Now, the Club has one, final mission: to get Namjoon laid.

Member: Hoseok

Word Count: 4,110

Summary: The story of how Hoseok lost his virginity. Based off this line in RMCC:  “That’s the whole point,” Hoseok explains, dropping a wink which makes Namjoon groan. “That’s how I lost my virginity, you know. I scored the winning run in a championship game and that night, Tiffany something-or-other jumped me in a dirty frat bathroom. It was…” Hoseok pauses for effect. “Heavenly.”

Member: Jungkook

Word Count: 6,870

Summary: The story of how Jungkook lost his virginity. To quote Seokjin/Namjoon: “What Jungkook doesn’t know won’t hurt him and – let’s be honest – his story is hilarious. One pump,” Seokjin laughs, sounding like a hyena. “One pump and he’s done.” // Ducking his head, Namjoon tries not to smile. “It was a rookie mistake,” he protests, defending their friend. “Jungkook was overexcited and couldn’t control himself. He got better.”

Member: Jungkook

Word Count: 42.7K

Summary: The year? Some point after college. The occasion? Namjoon is getting married and the Rich Man’s Crochet Club has convened once again. Somewhere between the drinks and the laughter, everyone has the same realization: Jungkook has never been in a serious relationship. In the name of all that is holy (Overwatch and booze), the club’s mission is revived. Now though, their goal is much more perilous. Now, they aim to find Jeon Jungkook a girlfriend.

summary: from running to mcdonald’s at 3am after a halloween party where the two of you dressed up as the teletubbies to timing how long it takes for him to drink a cup of monster mixed with mountain dew and iced coffee and then do fifty push-ups, you’re used to your best friend jungkook asking you to do all sorts of crazy things. but, of all the shit the two of you do, letting him follow you around for a week with a camera and take candid photos of you for a photography assignment might just be the craziest of them all.

Thoughts: Raise the Barre, Chp. 4 by @kpopfanfictrash

This should alternatively be titled PRaise the Barre. 

Warning: now interrupting this holiday season with a special program - “long and lots of gushing ahead.” lol 

Let me just start by thanking the lovely writer so much for making this fic, that has hit so close to home in my heart. This was my ABSOLUTE favorite chapter so far, and I just want to thank the lovely The elements of characterization, of movement, both inside and out, and finally the turning of the tides...PERFECTION. 

I want to begin with the beautifully done train of thought we see in the jogging scene, that plays in so well with the tapestry of character we get in Y/N.

“but something needed to change and you weren’t going to be so pig-headed you ruined your dreams for the sake of your pride.”

I love that as physical as the dance world is, there is just as much of the emotional and the mental brought to life in RTB. The intangible world within becomes tangible in Shanna’s world of words. So rarely do I see characters’ motivations and development of thought crafted so compellingly, with such continuity and realness to it. Seeing into y/n’s head as she runs was a beautiful interlacing of the fic’s elements and plot points coming in and dancing with each other to ultimately form y/n’s decision to apologize. 

-ˋˏ✄┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈

In the vein of characterization, I also appreciate so much the nature of how y/n fucked up, interplaying with Jimin’s characterized work ethic. She made a mistake. She owns up to it. She’s so human it hurts with me as I read. And in tandem with the true core of Jimin’s character. Beautiful.

And omigoodness, the weigh in scene.....not just for the much-needed nod to the ragged edges of a beautiful art, but for the art of the characters within this scene itself. 

“A strange wave of pity swept through you, imaging what Sabrina’s life must be like when she treated everyone the way she did.”

I so so so appreciate that y/n’s instinctual reaction was to empathize with Sabrina, that there is no instant villainization. It was at this moment I realized that I might be as in love with y/n as Jimin LOL. 

Shanna has blessed these characters with a humanity and realness that leaps as a world from the screen to me. 

-ˋˏ✄┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈

I would like to take a brief interlude to just express and acknowledge how glorious these two lines were, just how much they resonated with me. 

“It had been so long since you’d fully released, since you’d let the weight of a song drag you under and come alive again.”

“Whatever way the song made you feel was the right way to move, and even ugly motions made sense within the dance as a whole. Ugly emotions, ugly truths and ugly feelings - these were just as impactful as beautiful ones.”

It is so incredibly liberating to see the feelings I’ve had swirling nebulously in me to be expressed so freely and poignantly in words. To give the dancer-of-past in me a Name. 

-ˋˏ✄┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈

And finally, to finish up today’s ramble......

“It’s just.., I’ve always loved watching you dance.”

This line...a line so simple - that was it for me. Oh man did I silent scream so hard. What I love so much about the raw intentionality of dance is that it’s literal movement pure and true it’s your deeper feelings unbidden risen to the surface through movement no thoughts no mental filters just our expression from the heart. He saw her heart dancing across her skin, and he loved it and that was why that felt like such a key moment to me and that was built so so so well. The connections between inexplicably euphoric awe, heart, and dance all colliding with the slowly emerging respect and admiration of their rivalry was just !!!! ASDKFASLDF IM GONE ! ! 

I feel like, in observing Jimin and y/n wavering dance around each other and their history, we’ve been creep creep creeping our way up to a pinnacle, and now we’ve reached the top. I feel like we’re teetering at the edge of something marvelous and blood-rushing. That line was the tipping point. 

I will say it again: beautiful beautiful moving chapter! FUCK this fic is so real, too real and I’m lost in its world. This is enemies to lovers done to an art, as an art, with layers of history interlocking with the present to build to a future that I cannot wait to see unfold. 

-  Fin. -

If you’ve made it this far, thanks for joining the ride. Now go read Raise The Barre, and feel the love!! I guarantee, it is infinitely more interesting than this ramble.
