Because of Course There's Another Group to Love

They're Ateez, from a relatively small KPop entertainment company, KQ. They have eight members, all of whose names I now know, and who I can now identify (and amongst who I have my biases). They don't have quite as much creative control as Stray Kids, but because they're with a small company, they do have more control than many other groups. They've been around only slightly less time than SKZ, and members of the two groups are friends (they all competed in Legendary Wars, which isn't a thing I need to bother y'all with.)

I love their music, and I love their music videos. They have so much fun, and have, apparently, such fun in making sure their MVs are ridiculous ... and they sing and dance just ... well, I'm not going to fangirl too much. Instead, I'm going to bother you with at least three MVs. "Bouncy," and "Work," which came out in 2023 and 2024 respectively, and "Ice on My Teeth," also out in 2024. They have a metric ton of lore, but I'm not going to bother y'all with that, either. 

Just enjoy the crazy, and the dancing, and the acting, and the music, and the knowing humor of it all.



And then there's "Work"

 

And finally, "Ice on My Teeth"

I just happened upon this fun fic challenge comm[community profile] unconventionalcourtship 

This year's challenge opened on April 1 and closes on June 10.

Here's a summary of the challenge.  (This an abridged summary -head over to the comm for details. )



'Unconventional Courtship' is a panfandom fic fest where you write and post a 1000w+ fic based on a M&B/Harlequin plot. Fics will be posted to this community, staggered through June 2025.


How to play:

It's as simple as:

1. Sign up! Sign ups close on June 10 and all you need to do is comment on this post with the day you want to post your fic.

2. Choose a M&B/Harlequin summary (or two etc) - we have hundreds of suggestions.  You can do more than one fic, if you want. You can also combine prompts, if you like.

3. Replace the names (and pronouns if necessary) with the names (and pronouns) of the pairing of your choice. Any any all fandoms and pairings are welcome in this fest.

4. Complete a fic based on your altered summary. You can take the prompt seriously or use it as an improbable basis for lols.

Your Occasional Reminder ... 

That we're living where Huey, Benito, Uncle Joe (not the good one), Idi, That Man, and others have slithered and prowled. 



(The original music video is equally good, but this ... *chef's kiss* Also? The 80s and 90s didn't all suck.)
