The Jungkook School Of Boundaries

This isn’t the Jungkook essay I planned to write but it was the one I ended up writing! It’s more experimental, hope you enjoy! For free subscribers, this is just a little preview!

Jungkook has been on my mind lately. Not in the yearning way. I don’t want him. The pandemic seems to have aged him backwards, and I find him more accessibly endearing than sexy. I think about him and Tae on the stage in Vegas, competing in a whore competition, and I think it’s sweet. Anyway, I kept thinking about Jungkook and wondering where he was and if he was okay. I’d become one of those “Jungkook come home” people.  

Jungkook disappeared from the internet, something he used to do frequently but is less rare. He just kept showing up in my thoughts. I know this sounds so woo, but his “energy felt heavy.” I know, I know… that’s woo, but it’s how I felt. Looking back, this was likely a projection. 

I don’t know why Jungkook disappears from the internet but in my head cannon it’s the exhaustion with being up for public consumption. This is likely projection too.

Imagine if someone wrote scenarios about how you’d act in response to them getting their period? I’m not judging this instinct as I’m a believer of head cannons, I’m just saying — imagine!
