Chapter 4

Chapter 4

Two chapters in one week? It's a post-Halloween miracle! Or a pre-Thanksgiving miracle? One of them. Anyway, NEW CHAPTER and there's kisssssing.

Fic Summary:

Three gorgeous guys. One evil twin. One beekeeper with trust issues. Rora isn't here for love, she's here for fun, but she's not having much of that. When the guy she thought wanted her didn't, she swore she put her heart behind ice. But now she's got Marshall chasing her, Ozzy missing her, and Lewie, her best friend in the villa, wanting to be more than friends. Oh, and she has a sister who lives to hurt her. Can't forget that one. Rora's just a girl who prefers yoga to drama, but her life is currently nothing BUT drama. She's terrified of being hurt, and there's only one guy who has the ability to break down her walls, but what if he breaks her heart instead?

Writing is a stray cat yowling at your back door until you let it inside.

“how did you get into writing” girl nobody gets into writing. writing shows up one day at your door and gets into you

2, 4, 9 and 19 for the positivity ask game

2. What character did you start liking because of someone else?

Yas or Rafi from S3. I found Yas dull and Rafi dumb, but @throughthejunobush spent a lot of time convincing me to give them a chance and while I didn't finish either of their routes, I did really end up loving both characters. Yas is so chill and Rafi is the sweetest little dummy. It helps that she wrote them as wonderful people in Shiny Demon.

4. What inspires you to create in the fandom?

I love feedback, it fuels me. But I actually think it's mostly collaborating with other writers. Talking about ideas. Fleshing them out. Reading each others' work. I've said it before, but the only reason I'm still in the fandom is because of @throughthejunobush. For me, the act of creating is better when you have a partner in crime to bounce off of. It keeps things exciting and fun.

9. What WIP from another creator are you most excited about?

AMELIA CAN'T WIN by @longbobmckenzie. I NEED MORE OF IT. ALL OF IT. RIGHT NOW.

19. Your favourite fanwork of an underrated character?

Fight for It by @queen-of-boops WEREWOLF ARJUN. I just love Arjun. And werewolves. And werewolf Arjun. Also, another great one is Mind Games by @becangle. It's a Felix story that broke my heart and definitely inspired my version of him in This Momentary Blue.

Thank you @thatwheelchairchick for the asks!

A long time ago I chose the name Yi Kangdae for Lucas.

When I was working on my dirtbag Lucas fic, I created a whole family history for him, along with his birth name. I didn't use most of the history in the story (since it was for a prompt challenge with a word limit), but basically Lucas's paternal family are part of the last royal dynasty of Korea before they were removed from power. So his real family name is Yi. And his first name is Kangdae, which means mighty and powerful, which sounded like something his father would have chosen for him. For the story, I think Lucas is a name he chose to distance himself from his father. And Koh was his mother's last name. This entire history is Lucas head canon for me regardless of whether he's a dirtbag or not 😂

ok, so we kind of agreed on lucas being at least half korean because of his surname.

it's a little complicated since apparently koh can also be thai and chinese, but if we're talking korean, i would like to find a good name for him.

traditionally korean people do have a korean name besides their english version, like felix (from stray kids). his name is lee felix, but it's also lee yongbok.

so i went into a deep hole, to name characters for a future project, and encountered some options i liked for lucas.

i started by the meaning of the name, then found some options.

Lucas means either "man from Lucania" or bringer of light. since we know lucas wasn't born in Italy, i came to the conclusion that when his parents thought of the name lucas, they may have searched for the meaning and gave it to him because of it.

it could be just because "oh i love the name" but this is my blog and we only work with paranoia and overthinking, so get into it.

thinking about that meaning, i started researching names in korean that could mean the same thing... to come across absolutely nothing. there's no "bringer of light" or synonyms that fit in, BUT, there's a few that mean light, and technically someone that brings light has light in them, right?

i'll just assume you said "yes" and move on.

so, these are the names i found:

Ha-ru (하루) - In addition to being an indigenous Korean name, Ha-ru is also a Japanese name that means springtime, sun, sunlight, sunny. it's mostly given to kids who were born in sunny days. since lucas is an aries, he was born in spring, so... pretty good candidate!

Jeong-hui (정후) - The name Jeong-hui can be created by combining hanja that mean correct, proper, right, gentle, still, or quiet with beauty, glorious, bright, or splendid.

Jung-hee (정희) - Sometimes written as Jeong-hui, both names can be written with hanja meaning correct, still, or gentle, and beauty, bright, or glorious.

Myeong (명) - The Korean name Myeong, also spelled Myung, Myoung, or Myong, evolved from the Chinese name Ming. The hanja 明, meaning brilliance or bright, is used for the surname Myeong and when used in a forename, any one of 19 hanja that read Myeong can be used.

Byung-ho (병호) - Byung-ho combines glorious, bright, luminous, and vast, numerous, great.

Chan-yeol (찬열) - Chan-yeol means bright, vivid, illuminating, and vehement, ardent, and fiery.

to lucas' personality, i think chan-yeol fits in quite well. he is fiery and vehement, besides being HELLA vivid. it kind of became my favorite afterwards. and although there are a lot of names that mean bright or vivid, to me lucas is giving chan-yeol, but i would love to hear what actual korean players have to say about it, so if you're out there, let me know!

7, 10, and 13!

7. What OC (yours or someone else's) can't you get enough of?

These are really hard. For my own work, I'm gonna say Maitland in TSIME. She's a side character and one of Bobby's best friends. She's unpretty, she's grumpy, she has no time for feelings, but underneath her crusty exterior is a person who loves HARD. I just adore her. I also have a great love of Siobhan in TSIME. For other people's OC's, that's tough. There are so many I could list. But I think I'm gonna go with Sadie from The Greatest of Them All. She's sweet, strong, smart, and batshit crazy and I love her. The Scorpio rising in me honors the Scorpio that must live in her. Because she is SPITEFUL. I could read many more stories about her life with Bobby.

10. What's a theory/headcanon that you would die on the hill of?

Hmmm. Sam just reminded me that I basically wrote an essay on why my favorite fuckboy Levi cheats. It's a whole long build up I won't post here, but basically Levi feels his only worth is in WINNING. In being perfect. And he's desperate to feel like he can be loved even if he fucks up. Which is why he cheated and then immediately flew home and told Luci. And Luci of course, dumped him without hearing him out (as is her right) but to him proved that yet again, he isn't allowed to fuck up. Which is why, after Cherry-gate, if you give him another chance, he becomes THE UBER BOYFRIEND. He's the fucking best. Because you gave him space to fuck everything up, but you still cared about him. You stuck around and now, he'll fucking die for you.

13. What's your favourite moment during your time in the fandom?

It happened a long time ago, but back when my first exposure to the fandom was Twitter, there was a lot of weird shit happening. Long before the Tumblr accounts, there were S2 characters tweeting. And there were two Bobby accounts. I was in a Bobby stan Twitter GC and one of the Bobby accounts joined the chat. Everyone went bonkers and we all just sort of roleplayed that Bobby was our group boyfriend. It was extremely weird 😂 But then one day, THE OTHER BOBBY JOINED. LE GASP. And the two Bobbys fought for our hearts. Sides were chosen, accusations were hurled, and in the end, one Bobby was CAST OUT of our love nest. To this day I can't see the Spiderman gif where the two point at each other without thinking of the Battle of the Bobbys.

Also, side note, afterward, I found out that it was the same person running both Bobby accounts, so she was fighting with herself and somehow, that made it even weirder and funnier to me. She told me she got bored so she spiced it up 🤣🤣🤣.

Thank you for the ask, @longbobmckenzie!

No but seriously. True story.

I write for myself
