#EternalGifts

“When Life wants you—very specifically you—dead, you die.” At the same time as the reaper speaks out loud to the group, Namjoon hears in his mind, “Suggest we take me to Taehyung's forest.” Why doesn’t he just say that? A sudden thought creeps in, one that leaves a ringing sound in his ears from Wisdom: They can't let Life know their plans. It's probably a danger to even be communicating this way, even having these thoughts. Namjoon clears his throat, trying to mentally bury his newfound conclusion. “Yoongi hyung should see the tree. Guys, maybe there’s something there.” It feels correct the more the thought unfortunately stays with him. He tries to come off as cautiously hopeful. “What if we take you to Taehyung's forest?” “My forest?” Taehyung asks.

Yoongi nods. “You were a forest spirit in a past life. What else would be yours besides a forest?” Seokjin places a protective hand on the small of Taehyung’s back. “Like a fairy? Are fairies real?” Yoongi makes a face like he’s not going to say more. What Namjoon wouldn’t give to have access to his mind for five minutes. It would probably break his brain to know all the information about the universe that the reaper knows, but Namjoon still wants the opportunity to dig around. “Jimin hyung, it’s true then, you’re real.” Jungkook has been quiet this whole time, but of course, he wouldn’t let the opportunity to compliment Jimin pass him by. Jimin smiles, but the concern doesn’t leave his face. “I don’t know if we should be taking hyung’s body out of the hospital if—Trust him when you meet.” It takes Namjoon a moment to realize Jimin cut himself off and said his last thought only in his mind.

Still WIP Wednesday in my time zone! It's hard to decide what to share from this final part of #EternalGifts, but here's a sneak peek of what the seven demigods will be up to! Still in first draft mode, but making progress. 🌿

Gifts for Our Heavenly Father (What God Truly Wants from Us) It has been said that it is better to give than to receive. We experience joy when we give, but what does it mean to give gifts to our Heavenly Father? What gifts can we offer God, not in an earthly sense, but offerings of the heart that have eternal value? 

You never know what the Lord will use to share a lesson with you. In this case, it was a simple gift from a student over 30 years ago! Read about it here. #eternalgifts

Holding myself accountable by posting here. Writing #EternalGifts for the next three hours or I'm not allowed to watch Hudcon at the Golden Globes. 🫡 (also haven't said anything in a while, but my goal is to finish it before comeback, but uh, stay tuned for how true that is!)

This is how ot6 demigods respond to finding out about Telepathy: Jimin - Only use it in the bedroom. Jungkook - *vibrating at a high frequency* Hard yes. Taehyung - "If I think you're reading me, I will on instinct think about Jimin in the most sexual ways, so just... know that. But go ahead." (Jimin in the corner going, "Apparently, you've been thinking he's been reading your mind for years.") Seokjin - "That's telepathetic." Hoseok - Just don't tell me when you do~ Yoongi - Good luck trying.

In honor of a certain someone's birthday, here is a note from #EternalGifts I don't think I've ever shared? It's from when I was deciding what ot6 felt about a certain someone's new demigod gift and him reading them. This is also an old series spoiler~

Taehyung’s been stroking his hair for about a minute, and his deep red obsessive love is only growing stronger the more he thinks about them doing more than just cuddling in the tent. Here Taehyung is thinking about fucking Jimin, and Jimin’s out here thinking about someone else. Cue anxiety that secretly never left. “I’m sorry we’re not doing more right now,” Jimin says, mumbling against Taehyung’s chest. Taehyung keeps stroking his hair. “Don’t be sorry about that.” Jimin slides his fingertips down Taehyung’s other arm, mimicking Taehyung’s movements in his hair. “Yeah, but sometimes I feel bad for not giving you everything you want.” A protective pepper red starts filling his head, and he sighs, halting his motions on Taehyung’s arm. “Sorry, I wasn’t thinking about it until I was.” Taehyung’s hand stills in his hair before his fingertips begin massaging his scalp in soothing circles. “We have this conversation all the time. You let me be myself without making me feel like I have to change anything. Being yourself around someone doesn't mean getting everything you want from them. I love being obsessed with you. I don’t need anything more than what you already give me to be happy.” “I never thought of it that way.” Jimin closes his eyes, relaxing into Taehyung as his thumb pad rubs along the back of his head. “Of course not. You're too busy being perfect.”

Jimin’s eyes open just so he can roll them before closing them again. “That's going too far.” “I’d breed you every day if I could. That's taking it too far.” He hears the smug smile in Taehyung’s voice. “Mmhm… Especially when you're too busy breeding Seokjin hyung. How's that going?” Taehyung doesn’t miss a beat. “I think if we try harder, I'll impregnate him in no time.” Jimin hums in agreement against his chest. “Happy for you.” Taehyung’s chuckling forces Jimin to shake with him. “See? That's what I mean. You go along with my shit when no one else will.” “True. We don't roleplay enough anymore,” Jimin declares. He opens his eyes and leans slightly off him so they can see each other. Taehyung nods seriously, bringing a hand up to touch Jimin’s cheek. “Let's roleplay that we're naked in a tent in the middle of the woods and I'm obsessed with you.” Jimin grins, enjoying the way his cheek feels safe in Taehyung’s warm palm. “Okay. Deal.”

All this vmin roleplay talk (they say, having most of the talk in their head) has me deep in my #EternalGifts vmin feelings. Just has me wanting to reshare this part of their conversation from acitw ch 10, because I miss them. 😔

Okayy I can now say #EternalGifts "part 3" outline is complete!! It is 40 pages long, I made myself cry a lot (we'll be okay), I am estimating 60-80k total but no one qrt this later if I'm wrong. 😌 Will be working on this along with a fest fic I ~accidentally signed up for, but we're doing it!!

you 🤝 me, holding our #eternalgifts

here's to tryingggg (here for all #EternalGifts and and magic forest jikoo updates as always) 😌

I haven't given an #EternalGifts update in a moment - the outline is ALMOST done! 😩🙏 I've always been pretty good about chanting "good e-nough, good e-nough!" when writing fic, but of course, for this final part, it's now, "Actually, this should be the best thing you've ever written."

Quick shoutout to those who have DM'd me over the years to tell me how much they like #EternalGifts or that a random post reminded them of demigods. Everyone always apologizes for reaching out, but y'all don't need to! It makes my day when I realize people are still excited or have fun questions! 🌸💜

Moodboard for fic that consists of a nine-picture grid. The top left has a very boyfriend-looking Hoseok in the upper left corner with a hood up and smiling at the camera, a smartphone lying on a bed with text messages up to his right in the picture over, and on the far right is a picture of Yoongi playing keyboard in a studio setting. The middle row far left picture has a hand touching the sun, the middle picture is of a purple and white "dvine" logo (the demigod mobile app in the story) with a little green leaf sprouting out of the "d." Then on the far right is a person or shadow walking down a foggy dark street. The bottom row far left corner is Hoseok sitting on a dance studio floor and taking a picture of himself. The middle picture is a calico cat on a street, looking off into the distance. The far right picture is Yoongi with slightly longer hair, looking down at a smartphone.

Screenshot of fic name/summary. Fic name: d-vine intervention By: aplantolove Summary: Yoongi is finally making a name for himself in the music industry, but success isn’t everything. As a demigod of Death, Yoongi is used to two things: spirits not leaving him alone and the living staying away. When a persistent spirit called Angel has him create a profile on D-vine, the demigod dating app, what’s he got to lose?

A smartphone on a tan bed blanket with the phone screen on to show: Yoongi's dating profile on an app called Dvine (purple logo with green leaf on the "d"). His profile picture is of him with slightly longer hair, shoulder length in the back, smiling prettily, and wearing a dark blazer with white undershirt. The info on his profile says Yoongi, 24 and he/him, Death, Seoul as his location, and his about me section says, "Unironically into long walks on beaches and holding hands."

Uh oh, someone downloaded the demigod dating app... 👀 (New sope coming this weekend!) #EternalGifts

A blurred image of five gdoc files with a lot of words on them that I must work through

And so the work really begins! Finally solidifying the outline for #EternalGifts part 3 that has so far just been 65+ pages of outlining notes and dreams. Finished the sope draft (currently in editing), and I'm excited to get back into a minjoonkook headspace (with maybe others! Whomst is to say!).

Whenever I come up with a fic idea, there are always like 1-2 scenes that make up my entire reason for wanting to write it. I have reached one of those scenes in #EternalGifts sope prequel but I'M SCAREEEEDD. Won't say more here, but JUST KNOW. ty. Doing my best 🙏

Chapter 2's meme: Red-haired Jimin on the beach, on his knees, looking aimlessly at the sea. There are Lauren's comments around him from editing the chapter, such as, "shut UPPPP this is so CUUUTEEE" and "legs??? PANT SLEEVES???"

Chapter 3's meme: The famous possum meme where it is in a tree, surrounded by leaves, and a colorful "graphic design is my passion" phrase says "if you can't handle me at my worst, imagine how i feel."

Chapter 4's meme: Is from the Run BTS episode where they are playing limbo and Hoseok looks very put out with Namjoon his back, and the caption reads, "Jungkook ch. 4:" with Hoseok's caption from the episode, which is, "[Irritated] RM is thick."

Chapter 5's meme: Kermit the frog lovingly patting a little koala that is tucked into bed. The koala's caption says "Jungkook" and the kermit caption reads "minjoon's intelligence, kindness and thighs"

Just deleted my fic twt account! Feeling a little sad but overall happy not to have it there anymore. One really nice thing though is I looked back at the memes I made for most #EternalGifts acitw chapters (w/ some of @btslbz.bsky.social's editing comments).

Tag urself, I'm ch 3 + 4 (starts at 2).

This is #EternalGifts bc for real all I wanted was to write jm riding nj and then my brain said, "Okay, great! In order to get there, all you have to do is have jm HATE himself and also everyone is demigods and also here is this slightly tragic reaper yg backstory that MUST happen."

Plot of "made for you" #EternalGifts

Moodboard for story: Jimin on the left is looking rather seductive yet also sad and maybe anxious, as those are his ways of being in this series. A red rose with red smoke separates him from Namjoon who looks contemplative, as if he is weighing the pros and cons of a threesome with Taehyung who is pictured below them. Taehyung is biting the end of his shirt sleeve in a rather seductive way as well. Behind Taehyung is a desk and bed with fingers desperately laced together. In the middle of all three are words on a white background with black text that reads, "He isn't my boyfriend, but he's still mine." Because as we all know, Taehyung and Jimin might not be romantic lovers, but they still belong to each other in many ways that are beyond anyone's full understanding. That is just the vmin way!

Summary of story: Jimin was made for Taehyung. Platonic soulmates or not, Taehyung is his home. Now that Jimin and Namjoon have been dating for more than half a year, Namjoon feels evermore his home, too. If only there was a way to unite them all. — OR the vminjoon threesome everyone asked for. (Can be read as a one-shot.)

Moodboard for story: Minjoonkook with Jimin in soft purple and light purple toned images around him (flowers, three hands, and bed covers behind him), Jungkook smiling with pink/red toned images around him (cherry blossoms/the sea, paint, and a camera), and Namjoon in a dark sweater with blue-ish toned images around him (a white spider web, water underneath a pier, and a neon sign that reads "TRUST ME, LOVE ME, FUCK ME"). Regarding the neon sign, for those who care to know, TRUST ME represents Namjoon, LOVE ME represents Jimin, and FUCK ME represents Jungkook, as that is what they all desire most. Just kidding, they all desire all three things to a semi-equal extent.

Summary of story: Namjoon doesn’t have all of Wisdom’s gifts, but he does know where certain choices lead. If you get caught in a web, good luck getting out. — Jimin and Namjoon have been happy together for almost a year. Will Jungkook turn the tide or destroy what they have?

Moodboard for story: Forest spirit Taehyung with blue hair and slightly tinted green skin. A large tree stands behind him, roots jutting out from the ground, and a forest path with sunlight. Imagery of cherry blossoms, ginkgo leaves, and fall leaves accompany him. Yoongi in a white hanbok is on the bottom of the moodboard, staring at a moon-lit portal at night, a rushing river in daylight on his other side.

Summary of story: As an angel of Death, Yoongi has future knowledge of his charges. In this forest spirit’s next life, he’ll be Kim Taehyung: Artist. Loyal. Playful. The problem is, the Veil isn’t showing up and Yoongi knows when he’s supposed to reap this soul: Not for another 260 years. — Even angels of Death want to feel alive.

Moodboard for story: Jimin's side is pink toned with sunlight peaking through, a rose bush, hands held in bed, sparkly flowers, and more bed to really inform the reader what this story is about. Taehyung's side is green toned with the clouds, a uni-looking bed, legs and feet touching, a vase of flowers, and plant sprouts.

Summary of story: Platonic soulmates Jimin and Taehyung meet for the first time. They aren't as platonic as they could be.

Moodboard for hold it together: Namjoon's side of the image has green tones, including a spiderweb, books, minimoni lying in the grass, a bicycle, and a pond. Jimin's side has pink tones, including the sea, a bed, roses, smoke, and fingers touching.

Summary of story: Jimin, demigod of Love, is done with dating. He knows how everyone else feels when they’re in requited, loving relationships except himself. He’s already found his platonic soulmate. Maybe he doesn’t deserve romantic love. Enter Namjoon, demigod of Wisdom, who doesn’t have all the answers but tries anyway.
