Wreck Me - Finale (VIXX Ravi)

Well, folks, you made it to the end of Namjoon & Wonsik's story.  This isn't the end though.  Far from it.  The next members of VIXX and BTS have a little somethin' somethin' coming up.  All of them will get their happy endings.  Yay!

That being said, I know some of you are upset with me for writing m/m and not writing VIXX/you stories, but in all honesty, I write whatever comes to me.  Sometimes I'm not inspired to write from a woman's POV and write whatever is in my head.  And sometimes that just so happens to be two men falling in love.

BUT...I have plans.  The other members still need love in the CEO VIXX 'verse and I've already started on Jaehwan's.  So, once I'm done finishing this soulmate AU, plan on seeing that one.

I hope y'all enjoy the end of this fun, sweet, sometimes sad journey.  I've had a ton of fun writing Namjoon and Wonsik's adventures and I hope this finale shows just how much.  Thank you to the few who've left me messages.  You made my day.

And, without further ado, the end to their journey begins.  Have fun!

Wreck Me Part 3 (VIXX Ravi)

All righty!  Sorry it took me a week to put up part three.  Things are just...really, really intense IRL right now and it's hard to concentrate.  BUT, I've been working on this bad boy since last weekend.  Again, a lot of words as per usual and a lot more angst than I normally write.  But, I'm very pleased with the way it's turned out and I hope you enjoy the continuing adventures of Wonsik and his soulmate.

And as always, please comment!  It really helps me keep plugging along with feedback.  And I've got it set up where you can leave comments anonymously if you're shy.  :)

I hope y'all enjoy and that this coming week is good to you!

BTS Part 2: The Red Bullet Concert Review

So obviously this isn't a story (sorry for the long delay, y'all), but yesterday was my BTS concert & holy crapdoodles, it was the most amazing experience of my life.  *sighs*

Since this was my first KPOP concert experience, I had no idea what I was getting into.  At all.  My wonderful friend let me stay at her house, which allowed me to afford this trip.  :)  I got here on Thursday and we spent the day driving back to her house and hanging out.  Yesterday we drove into Chicago with the idea that we would spend 99% of our day there before driving to the concert venue.

Downtown Chicago...well, Chinatown in Chicago was where we spent most of our time.  My friend took me to the most amazing KPOP store where I spent a ridiculous amount of money.  *sighs*  I'm not surprised I spent the money, cuz we don't have anything like it in Michigan.  I got some amazing stuff & at some point I might take a picture of it all.  It was ridiculous.

Since my friend had press, we had to get to the venue a little early so she could get stuff figured out.  I was sitting with one of her friends who I met at the venue.  Even though it was assigned seating, the line at the venue was absolutely ridiculous.  The line basically circled 2/3 of the building.

My friend met up with the others who had press, so I spent most of my time leaning against a wall watching some of the kids dance to random KPOP songs.  When the doors opened at 7, there was a long wait before I could finally get inside.

All I can say is thank goodness the Rosemont Theater actually understands good seating for concerts.  My seat was WAY in the back, but my view was completely unobstructed  There were no seats in front of me, so I had a crystal clear view of the stage.  The others sitting around me were great and we had some great laughs before the concert started.

The houselights dimmed and the bright lights over the stage came on about ten minutes before 8.  The crowd went completely ballistic, because they knew when those lights went off, the concert was going to start.  The chants of BTS, BTS, BTS! were insane.  The girl behind me just went completely insane & I think she blew out my ear drums before the concert even began!  LOL!

The lights went off and I could see the boys as they went out onto the stage.  The screams were so loud that they stood there for a good five + minutes waiting for us to chill a bit before the concert actually began.

They started with N.O. and they killed it  From there they went into We Are Bulletproof Pt 2, We On & Hip Hop Lover.  After that they did their first talk where they introduced themselves.  The screams for Jimin & Taehyung were so loud you couldn't even hear them when they were talking.  Whoops!  LOL!

Right after their first talk, they jumped into Let Me Know & I about died.  They completely killed it.  Completely.  It's my favorite song by them, but now it's probably my fave KPOP song ever.  Their harmonies and the rapping were so on point it's ridiculous.  *sighs*

They then went into Rain, Blanket Kick and Just One Day.  Just One Day slayed me.  Jin had a rose through his part and the front row was going insane because they thought he was going to throw the rose into the crowd.  Thankfully he didn't or all hell would have probably broken loose.  LOL!

Look Here, Propose, No More Dream were all wonderful.  Jimin's abs were on display, but what really caught me was his hair.  Since I was so far back I couldn't see everything super clear, but that intense red in his hair kept catching the light and he just shone.  *sighs*

Then they jumped into Tomorrow and I'm not kidding when I think every fan girl in the crowd about died.  Their body rolls were so on point and the choreo for that song is just pure sex.  I'm still in pain thinking about it.  :-P

Miss Right, I Like It, If I Ruled The World...all amazing.  BUT...what completely slayed me was the Cyphers.  Oh.  My.  Lord!  Those three just completely & totally killed it.  They were so into it I'm amazed they didn't break anything.

That segued directly into War of Hormone and Danger.  I Need U & Boy In Luv finished off the main set.  The boys went off stage and the crowd just went completely ballistic.

As we were waiting for the encore, they played a video that just pulled the heartstrings.  All about them predebut up to now and it was beautiful.  When they came back, they went into Road (Path), Dope and Boyz with Fun.  The last song was Attack on Bangtan (Rise on Bangtan) and they were bouncing off the walls.  It was like once the encore started they said screw choreography & just did whatever they wanted.  And it was great!  LOL!

The opening video & the parts that connected it through the whole concert...whoever filmed it deserves an award.  They looked so good it's ridiculous!  I'd seen the behind the scenes of that, but seeing it live and in person just blew my mind.

My Thoughts:

Rap Mon needs way more kudos than he gets.  When he raps, he gets so into it it's like he forgets he's in front of people.  He's very charismatic and his English was great.  And his dancing.  When he's in formation with the other six, he completely & totally holds his own.  And some of his moves were enough to make my head explode.  LOL!  And when he said he was so excited to be in Chicago, that it had been his dream since he was a kid, you could tell he really meant it.

Suga is...adorable.  He is so pale in person that some of the lighting made him literally glow.  With that blond hair he just shines. Suga & aegyo do not mix, but man was it funny when he did it.  And that boy needs a mixtape ASAP!  Hearing him rap in person and that he doesn't get breathless when he's going off just blows my mind.  He is...phenomenal.  And his dancing is so underrated.  So underrated.  He more than held his own.

Jin was just so cute.  He hurt himself somewhere along the line so he wasn't bending down as far as the others, but his legs were fine, so he was keeping up with the rest of them.  When they did Just One Day he was so cute.  He kept wandering around his area with the rose and you could tell that he was flirting with any girl he could see.  :)  And his voice IRL is stellar.  He more than held his own with the other vocalists.  And he really, really loves Chicago-style pizza!  LOL!

J-Hope...where do I even begin with him?  First of all, that boy more than deserves the title of Sunshine.  He had a huge grin on his face the entire time.  His eyes just shone and he kept giggling during the speeches.  But when he danced, his body moved in ways that were just beautiful.  All fluidity and charisma.  And his singing voice.  Egads!  I don't even know what to say!  And he more than held his own during his rapping sections.  So beautiful.  *sighs*

Jimin is just a flirt.  Kept making direct eye contact with anyone he could see and played the crowd like a pro.  His voice is gorgeous live.  Absolutely gorgeous.  And he was having a blast.  Running around on stage.  Flirting with Jungkook  & Taehyung.  Just being the little ball of sweetness we all know him to be.

Taehyung is absolutely stunningly beautiful in real life.  Like...take his pictures & videos and times the hotness factor by a million.  He took my breath away.  And his voice!  Good Lord!  When he was singing Let Me Know, his tone was so perfect.  And he was also having too much fun.  When they came out for the encore he was just bouncing around like a bunny.  And he was just pure adorableness when he was speaking in English.  So cute.

Jungkook is illegal.  Pure and simple.  He's the other one who is ten thousands times more beautiful in person than he is in videos.  Like...I can't even.  Everything he did was perfect, which was a bit ridiculous.  Even his turn doing aegyo when he lost was adorable.  LOL!  His voice is stunning and yeah.


So my final conclusion is that you can't go to one of their concerts without falling head over heels for them.  They are so talented and so full of energy it's ridiculous.  They're all beautiful and they know how to work the crowd.  They gave their all and then some.  At the end when they said their final goodbyes, they got super emotional.  Rap Mon, Jimin...they all cried.  I think they could feel the love of the crowd.  How could you not?

The crowd fed them that love.  Just about every song we were singing our hearts out to the point where you could barely hear them.  As they walked off stage, I Need U began playing again.  We began to sing it as they walked off.  Jin and Taehyung were the last two off and you could tell they didn't want to leave.  Waves high over their heads and huge smiles on their faces.

And I had a moment with Rap Monster.  At the end before they left, the lights went on and the boys were all standing at the edge of the stage looking everywhere, not just down at the pit.  Where I was standing there was nothing blocking me from view.  I had my hands over my head, waving and he looked directly at me.  His eyes went down to my feet and up to my hands and I saw him mouth Wow!  The girl behind me smacked my arm and was like "Girl, he was looking right at you!"  I think my height blew his mind!  LOL!

All in all it was the most amazing experience of my life.  I almost cried at the very end as we were all singing after they walked off the stage for the last time.  It honestly broke my heart that it was over.  It went by so fast my head felt like it was spinning.  Everyone I met was amazing and the genuine love you felt from us to BTS and from BTS to us was just the most precious thing ever.  I am so very thankful I was able to have this opportunity and I will never be able to forget it.

Thank you BTS for being so amazing.  You've made a fan for life after last night.  *bows*
