I Need Jikook - Tumblr Posts

Plausible deniability.

Whatever Jimin and Jungkook have will be safe and protected as long as they remain within the realm of 'are they/or aren't they'.

The minute they confirm what they are, is the minute they open up their relationship to outsiders. Who would want to risk such a precious and, dare I say, rare kind of love to prying eyes?

Growth. Just like Jimin and Jungkook keep striving to grow as artists deserving of our admiration (done and done), I'm sure they have growth as one of the corner stones of their relationship. They stumbled upon it, stumbled and fumbled through it. They saw it for what it was and nurtured it from a puppy love to a long-lasting bond. One that serves them both equally.

In this essay I will...

*NO WIFI*

Guys. I'm currently on holiday in the South of France and I'm camping on a beautiful but infuriatingly 'no wifi' campground. It's like a fucking hippie commune. It's beautiful, the weather is amazing. BUT

I HATE IT.

ALL I WANT IS TO BASK IN THEIR LOVE AND NOW I HAVE TO DO IT IN SHORT INTERMITTEND BURSTS WHILE SITTING ON A WOODEN BENCH MADE BY HIPPIES. I HATE EVERY NON JIKOOK SECOND OF IT. I MISS THEM.

Can you believe me when I tell you that my mind is alive, though? Is this what a lack of accessible internet does to a brain? It wanders off towards Jikook as I gaze out over the Alps. My thoughts drift towards the special bond that they have as I listen to the crash of a waterfall.

As the official 'Are You Sure' trailer is about to drop, I'll have to covertly and illegally siphon off some of the wifi as I try and keep up with my pookies 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

Like..who even dares to book a holiday when bangtan are roaming the earth?!?

Last year, it was D-Day, the year before it was Hobipalooza. FML!!!!

I'll catch up if they don't catch me first.

Ps. MUSE is a great road trip album!! It will always be embedded in the memories we're making here.

What was your favourite part of AYS? Was there anything that surprised you? Or anything you didn’t like?

What a sweet question 🥺

My favorite scene was the train scene. From the moment they step into the station, bellies full and ready to travel, to the minute they step out back into the real world. It felt like they were momentarily encased into a little bubble. It is very serendipitous and a great conceptual way to tackle a practical problem by the production crew.

Seen as a whole, my favorite part was that AYS?! gave jikook the agency to embark on a favorite pastime while under the guise of work. An airtight excuse for travel before enlisting, but also one that has and will keep on serving them well. As a unit within BTS jikook need that veil of plausible deniability in order to be 'two dudes' traveling together.

It might also be my least favorite part of AYS?!. They needed a cover to travel together right before enlisting. I wish so very much they they can travel uninterrupted together. No need to document for the hungry hyenas (ie: me!) or to explain away why they spend so much time together. They can travel with us barely knowing, it's possible. They needed a good excuse to leave the country and this was perfect. But I'm sure they would have had a greater time if they did not have to censor themselves all the time.

Then again, I'm just nitpicking because the smiles were so genuine! They were so comfortable together. They get so much joy from seeing the other happy and smiling. It's basically a mobius strip of joy to have watched them watch the other be happy. It was just contagious.

Now, all that is left for me is to wistfully turn the pages of my photobook and watch them bask in the warmth of their little love bubble.
