ahh i was talking to oomf recently about what if riktael were roomies and rik would sometimes drag tael with him to the gym and tael would go bc he likes hanging out with rik and also rik's hot and it's nice to watch and one day they run meet maet and they both are instantly taken with him. they decide he's fair game and they can both try to flirt with him and they'll be happy for whoever he chooses that he likes. so they both spend the next few weeks hanging out with him together and separately but they can't figure out at all which way he's leaning. so they decide to invite him over to their place one night with the intention to hang out (but also finally find out who he's into more)...but then it turns out he's into them both and they end up having a threesome and that keeps happening and then sometimes maet's just coming over to hang out and eventually somehow he moves in and they're not sure when it happened but they're pretty sure that he's both of their boyfriends now and they're okay with that 💕

for my maettael thoughts...i am still thinking about the fact that tael actually saw all of us saying they should kiss and that he's down bad and instead of denying it he just doubled down and said it's TRUE but maet is more down bad than he is kdksksk

what a wild thing to confirm and say....

well yes, of course 🩷 and i think it would be amazing bc all three are so full of love for eo~ we have sungseok ofc with their deep history and bond and then maettael with all their yearning and flirting and then bintael, the roomies who would stay up late talking about all their worries and fears laying in bed until the late hours of the night finding comfort in each other. now combine the three together and it would be such a stable and supportive relationship with lots of passion too (esp bc we know both bin and tael are possessive of maet and have a need to protect him jsjsksk)

i actually had a pacific rim au idea once that was:

mine was not as deep kdksks it would probably just be maetbin drift partners with taerae as the scientist who is desperately trying to find a solution before they possible die.

binmaet (past romantic and now has to navigate still being drift partners with their complicated history, but they do still love eo) and maettael (current romantic, and scientist tael is stressed bc he has to let maet go into the fight not knowing if he'll come back)

in my mind maet would be still be in love with both and tael is a ball of nerves bc maet's safety is in the hands of bin, so he has to learn to trust him even though he's skeptical at first, but they spend time together and that bond is formed too and they can all 3 be happy and in love together and work together ♡ i like happy endings sooooo 🤭

hi ♡ thank you for reading it and enjoying it!! honestly that fic is the one i'm most proud of...i do feel like i really poured my heart and soul into that, so i'm so glad you liked it! i haven't been feeling very confident about my writing lately which is why i'm hesitant to finish it right now because i don't want to mess anything up...but it is still ongoing. i do have a majority of the next chapter already written but just need to finish. 🥺 hopefully my confidence comes back soon because i really would like this to finish and be something wonderful ♡

it's night for me now but i hope you have a lovely day or night too! 💗 and thanks again for reading my royal au 💗

I HAVE NOW 😭 and omgg why is he so romantic...he never stops bringing up the fact that he's a T but he wrote an emotional love song for maet, when maet mentions a song then he sings it for him, when maet says he loves a song then he posts a picture of them together with the song playing over it, when he hears maet sing "how could i not know, your feelings towards me" then he ends up crying bc of everything he feels for him~

maet really does make him feel safe enough to really be honest and open with his feelings and he expresses that a lot through song and i love that 😭😭

"So whenever you ask me again how I feel
Please remember my answer is you
Even if we have to go back a long way
I will still feel the same way about you"

the way maet said it too ksksksk his tone of voice was sooo....it wasn't a question. he was telling him to meet him on his floor after he was done and it just sounded hot and private and so urgent~ like you said, he could have just waited and gave it to him when they got home but he wanted to meet with him ASAP and see his face when he saw it and kiss it

i just imagine maet laying down on one of those couch/bench things in a dark empty small practice room because he decided to rest and accidentally fell asleep waiting for tael to be done. and tael comes in and lays down beside him and wakes him up. and maet playfully bickers with him and says he won't show him it now because he took so long (all with a teasing smile on his face)...and tael can see the box outline in his pocket and so climbs on top of him and he tries to take it out and maet tickles him in retaliation....then they lock eyes and pause and maet says he'll give it to him if he can get a kiss and ofc tael is happy to oblige...then they end up making out for awhile before they remember why maet asked tael to meet him there in the first place 😜

oh wow 😭😭 it's just been a few days and tael posted a picture on plus chat and showed it off in his live (and even brought it all the way to LA) and now he's even using it as his background 😭😭 for someone who believes that birthdays are to give someone your heart and not physical gifts,, he really seems to love his physical gift from maet a lot (maybe it's because, to him, this is maet showing his heart?) 🥲

and this is the first time i've seen a picture posted with a voice note before....so he really could have just posted the cover as an audio only but he chose to show off his gift from maet again, just because~

now i need to look up the lyrics to see if there's anything else there hehe 👀

but honestly, i just love how we can truly feel how excited and happy it is when it comes to these anecdotes with maet. he's usually someone who is so careful with what he shares and he definitely thinks about things ahead of time but then, like with the han river date, he was just so happy and so excited that he wanted to share it with us and he even ended up accidentally doxxing their location jsjsksksk

as tael said himself, he really becomes an F when it comes to maet and he can't contain his feelings and this ongoing saga of the keycap is a good example. he loves it so much and i'm sure he really does think of maet now everytime he sees it...and i'm sure maet is so happy since he was so excited for so long for tael to finally see it 💗 i love them sm 😭

OMG SEOKRIK THOUGHTS TY ANON ❣️ but yes, they are SUCH bros in the way that they talk to each other and joke around and how rik encourages maet's oppa rizz agenda and maet also hypes up rik saying he has unlimited rizz~ but at the same time...they also are so sweet with each other. like how rik has held maet's hand multiple times despite being someone who doesn't easily do skinship with many people! and we already know that maet is affectionate and loves cuddles and kisses (the back hug or kisses on the neck)...and they are ROOMMATES right now which i feel like we don't talk about enough. can you just imagine maet needing some physical affection and going to just casually hang out in rik's bed as they just talk about things while rik gets ready (and they can talk in english which is more comfortable for them both)....and maet's sleepy and lowkey wants to cuddle so rik gets into bed and maet just,,, doesn't leave. and ofc rik would try to tell him to go but we know that ultimately rik is a softy and also maet is stubborn and he knows that rik likes it too so he just laughs and gets closer to him instead until rik tells him that he's going to sleep so maet can do whatever he wants (like how maet's the only one allowed to spill coffee in rik's car bc he had a soft spot for him) 🫠 they could easily fall into this bro friends who sometimes kiss who also love each other trope very easily hehe....

...i would also love to see them in a fake dating turned real dating situation, especially after rik explained how he would take maet on a date...maet would think rik's date choices were kind of questionable but he'd go with it and indulge him and come up with his own ideas along the way and they'd both have such a good time 😌

hii oomf 😭 ik it's hard out rn esp if you ship both 😭 i just really encourage everyone (esp anyone who is a diehard monogamist) to curate your fandom experience pls 🙏 block and mute are right there so you don't have to see things or read hot takes from ppl that you don't want to read...

and if anyone is stuck on the "who started it first" thing, although i say this nicely but 1) we're not on an elementary school playground and 2) it doesn't really matter bc constant retaliation won't make either side feel better and 3) if you anyone sincerely wants to know more from the perspective of someone who was here before gmg nation became a nation and when jyungseokers were still ppusamzers who just lowkey rps'd, then oomfs pls come into my dms anytime ♡

also, did you see that maettael almost kissed again? let's focus on happy things like yaoi ♡ ily anon, hope that things get better soon and we can all ship whichever ship we want to in peace 💕

hii and welcome back, anon! 💗 you're not offending me at all, so don't worry! so i always considered myself as mostly maet harem otp bc i enjoy maet's interactions with everyone (even non zb1, hello seokkeita~), so when i created that header i always intended to switch out the ships occasionally. i added gyubseok in there after i posted my recent gyubseok fic bc a moot sent me that picture for my graphic and i just thought it was so cute! i probably will have seokrik up there next too~

but to answer your question, yes, i would say that geonmaet is not my otp since there are other maet ships that i'm currently more obsessed with 💗 and no, i don't have any official ranking list or ship chart~ and yes, i fully support any oomfs who do have them as their otp 🫶

i try not to think of dday but whatever happens i am confident in their relationship only getting stronger afterwards because they have already been through this to some degree when they got separated at cube and still got even closer afterwards, even being at different agencies. so they have already been through this type of test and proven that their bond only gets stronger. maet still would go to bin's apartment and they'd still go for food or for a drive or for a walk or just hang out and talk deeply or have fun. they were still each other's motivators and support systems. they still shared clothes and shared dreams. maet still was close to bin's family and vice versa.

so i'm confident they will be okay no matter what, even though obviously i'm sure they would prefer to keep working together but even if they don't their bond is too strong after all these years for it to ever waver imo 💗

well yes i do think about this because this just means that...

1. even a year ago maet was looking at things and just randomly thinking about how tael would love it

2. also that it was not just a passing thought because he still remembered that an entire year later because he probably has a list in his mind of things that remind him of tael or things he thinks tael would like

3. maet thought that tael probably wouldn't use it but still wanted to get it for him even though it was expensive and he even said that he hoped tael thought of HIM whenever he sees it and keeps it in his room...which tells me that he likes tael to have reminders of him around his room~ just like when maet gave tael the other chip and dale plushie to put on his bed

4. then tael actually did put the keycap on, even though it's not practical at all, and took a picture and shared it with us because it probably made him so happy thinking about everything i said above and how much maet cares about him and thinks about him. and now every time he games, which is something he loves, he will be reminded of something else he loves (maet)

hiii sweet anon 💕 i always wished they were friends since bp (bc i liked them separately and thought they would be cute together too) then we got little bits of them in camp zb1 with the sexy can opening and maet wanting to ride with tael but most of what occurred between them must have happened off screen because then we heard tael bring up again and again that SUNSET and how he never cries but how maet brings it out of him. and i thought that was so incredibly sweet considering they went from most awkward to this. and then ofc we had their duo live and bday live and all the cute bickering and bantering and "oh by the way maet looks gorgeous in the sunset, did i mention that already?" and i just fell in love with their dynamic. i loved how tael was so hesitant to touch but then HE was the one who actually grabbed maet's hand at the airport, he was the one pulling him closer and maet was more than happy to be pulled in. 🥲

i'd say i fell for them when tael told the story about how he wrote the song for maet and then we he sang the song and i read the lyrics...i still am not over it yet. just the impact of doing that and what that says about their relationship and the words in the song and how it's all things that tael has said before and keeps saying because he keeps thinking about it....just ahhhhh it's so good. so i'd say that's when i fell for them because i will never get over That Song 😭😭😭
