otp = online typing pal?toujours_belle: it feels weird to just think of you as ‘sonderland’ or ‘sonder’ or ‘son.’ especially that last one
toujours_belle: hahahahhaa i can’t stop laughing at that. i don’t actually think of you as son, don’t worry
toujours_belle: anyway i feel like we’ve been chatting for a while. or maybe we haven’t been but it just feels that way?? i really like talking with you, not just about fandom but like everything. so i just wanted to properly introduce myself and all that
toujours_belle: i’m tiffany, it’s nice to meet you!
sonderland: it really hasn’t been that long. i had to look at the time stamps of when we started talking to check, and it’s only been a little over a week. but i know what you mean
sonderland: nice to meet you, tiffany. i’m jessica
dreaming in pink @xolovestephi

dreaming in pink @xolovestephi

dreaming in pink @xolovestephi

dreaming in pink @xolovestephi
i’m thinking too much about this i’m gonna go to sleep
j @dancingonthemoon
isn’t it funny how you could have known someone for years but not consider them a friend, but you talk for someone for a week and you do?
sonderland: i almost got her to write a hajeong
sereniTY: you’re kidding
sonderland: nope i am 100% serious
sereniTY: “almost” though. so you didn’t
sonderland: not this time but i will keep trying
sereniTY: lmao are you ever gonna tell her hajeong is your secret otp
sonderland: they are not my secret otp okay
sereniTY: stop living in denial you love haeun and you love yejeong and you love haeun and yejeong loving each other
sonderland: why did that sound so gross when you put it like that
sereniTY: it’s a gift
sonderland: definitely. you’re gifted at grossness
toujours_belle: what was your old fandom?
sonderland: glee
toujours_belle: oh who did you ship??
sonderland: quinntana and pezberry
toujours_belle: a santana fan i see
sonderland: and quinn too. the only cheerios i’d eat tbh
toujours_belle: LMAO JESSICA
sonderland: well that was weird
toujours_belle: because i said your real name?
sonderland: yeah guess i’m not used to it
toujours_belle: would you prefer son
sonderland: er no i think my name will be fine
toujours_belle: jessicaaaaaaaaaa~
sonderland: yes tiffany?
toujours_belle: okay you’re right that is kinda weird
sonderland: and i didn’t even repeat the same letter or use a tilde. were you ever into glee? have any ships?
toujours_belle: oh that squiggly thing is called a tilde? no but i have a lot of mutuals who were so i know quite a bit about it. i think i’d like faberry or brittana
sonderland: lol ofc the classic ones. and they’re very opposites attract which goes right up your alley
toujours_belle: okay but opposites attract is the best. exhibit: mirin
sonderland: i see your mirin and i raise you yeseol
toujours_belle: okay yeseol has been growing on me. yejeong is such a bias wrecker
sonderland: don’t fight it. how’s the goddess au going?
toujours_belle: ugh it’s not. even though i really want to work on it. or maybe because of that. do you ever feel like the more you care about a fic the less you can actually write it
sonderland: yes because it can never turn out as good as it is in your head
toujours_belle: YES EXACTLY
toujours_belle: it’s like...my baby. it’s safe in the womb of my mind right now. but as soon as i bring it into this earth it’s just gonna get ruined
sonderland: “the womb of your mind” lol. you should title your fic that
toujours_belle: i’ll put it down as a candidate
Draft: Sea Goddess AU
Seolrin crouches by the edge of the beach and cups two handfuls of sand, watching them spill through the gaps between her fingers like the crystals from an hourglass. She keeps an eye on the waves, but they lap at the shore as lazily as ever, betraying no movement beneath the deceptively calm surface.
She doesn’t know what she was expecting. It was silly, to come all the way here chasing a fairy tale, but if there was ever a time to believe in legends it would be now.
“Are you looking for someone?”
The voice makes her jump. Her head whips around, only to come face to face with a girl no older than her. She has long, dark hair braided with what looked like kelp and a dress somewhere between blue and green.
“Did I scare you? Sorry, I didn’t mean to!”
“I-it’s okay,” Seolrin stammers, although she feels like she just lost a year of her life. “Where did you come from?”
The girl gives her a strange look. “The ocean, of course,” she says, as if it’s obvious. “I heard you calling for me, so here I am.”
toujours_belle: this is what i have for now
sonderland: i’m intrigued. if you didn’t already tell me mijin was a goddess i might think she’s a siren. or a selkie. that’d be interesting
toujours_belle: i thought you’d say mermaid
sonderland: please mermaids are overdone
toujours_belle: but mirin’s part of your world duet calls for a mermaid au :(
sonderland: …is this secretly a mermaid au in disguise
toujours_belle: no lmao mijin isn’t a mermaid i promise. that selkie au does sound interesting - you should write it!
sonderland: maybe one day. i’m pretty caught up in this wip right now
toujours_belle: ooh about what?
sonderland: i’ll tell you once i’m a bit more ahead in the planning process. but there’s yemirin involved
toujours_belle: YEMIRIN, THE SUPERIOR TRIANGLE
sonderland: ikr except the whole debate about their name lmao. i still see people fighting over whether they should be called yemirin or mirinjeong or yeseoljin or. you get the point
toujours_belle: remember when everyone called mirin seoljin and mijeong yejin
sonderland: that was a dark time did you have to bring it up
toujours_belle: i’m glad you’re not one of those people
sonderland: ditto. if you were i don’t know if we could still be friends
toujours_belle: so we’re friends now?
sonderland: …are we not
toujours_belle: you definitely are to me! i just wanted to make sure
sonderland: we’re even friends on aff. i barely know how friends work on here
toujours_belle: tbh i’m not sure what it does aside from blog posts?? was sereniTY the one who hacked into your account?
sonderland: how did you know that
toujours_belle: she’s your only other friend on aff so i figured
sonderland: amazing job sherlock
toujours_belle: i’m so curious yeah~
sonderland: that was a bop
toujours_belle: i thought you were going to say “i don’t see how shinee is relevant to this conversation”
sonderland: shinee is always relevant
toujours_belle: lmao speaking of shinee have you seen that taemin obama hyung fic?? that and the rihanna one are probably the weirdest fics i’ve ever seen on aff
sonderland: i’m eating here can you not
toujours_belle: oh sorry
sonderland: do these disturb you more than those serial killer mijeong fics
toujours_belle: lmao those are a time. some of them are good though! creepy but good
sonderland: yeah it’s an interesting premise. except most of them are with yejeong as the serial killer/psychopath. personally i like the thought of a dark mijin. there aren’t enough fics like that out there
toujours_belle: wait is your mijin your bias
sonderland: guess
toujours_belle: uhhhh. i’m going to guess she’s your secret bias that you won’t admit
sonderland: wow you are actually right on the money
toujours_belle: I KNEW IT. you strike me as a yejeong stan tbh. but you ship mirin so
sonderland: i shipped mijeong for about 5 seconds and then i discovered mirin
toujours_belle: mirin >>>>>>> mijeong
sonderland: hajeong >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
toujours_belle: OMG WHY DO YOU DO THIS
sonderland: do what, not hold down my caps lock key?
toujours_belle: YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN
sonderland: do you know what lowercase letters mean
toujours_belle: wait so is yejeong your bias then
sonderland: honestly i switch between the members they’re all bias wreckers
toujours_belle: i feel. but han seolrin is forever my number one
sonderland: i can tell. i was going to ask you - where is yejeong in this supposed yeseol fic
toujours_belle: she comes in later okay? i see you still haven’t learned patience yet, young padawan
sonderland: says the younger one
toujours_belle: hey in a couple of months it’ll be my birthday and then you can’t hold that over me anymore
sonderland: when is your birthday?
toujours_belle: august 1. are you gonna write me something as a present?
sonderland: sure i’ll write you a great hajeong fic
toujours_belle: WHY ARE YOU LIKE THIS
A/N: All the fics that I mention in this chapter do exist, although of course the serial killer ones aren't MiJeong but I'm sure you can figure out which pairing they are.
