《BTS Imagines》Offline sunshine (Hoseok x Reader)

Twitter, Facebook, Vapp. There are enough ways for you to see him. He sends photos of what he is doing with his hyungs or texts in which he expresses his love for you or tells you he misses you. Technology is what keeps you connected. Because of you, Hobi has another reason to always keep his phone near. Yet you wish he would sometimes put it down and enjoy some time offline.
Next time he is back, you will make sure he does not touch the damn thing.

Later that month, when he is back from touring, you decide to go out to the beach together. The day is bright and the breeze makes the high temperature bearable, constantly bringing a refreshing coolness.
'Let's take a selfie to remember this day,' Hoseok says with his ever so cheerful voice as he pulls out his iPhone and searches for the right lighting for the picture.
'We don't need a photo, we can just create a memory. Something only we can share.' Arms crossed over your chest and your tone slightly stern, you grab his attention.
'Sunshine, is everything alright?' Hearing his pet name for you makes you heart flutter. Even though you secretly hate to be addressed with a term of endearment, you respond nonetheless.
You relax your composure a bit, showing some vulnerability. 'Just put the phone away.'
Hearing the beaten tone in your voice, he asks no questions and heeds your words. With concern in his eyes, he walks over to you. 'Care to tell me what's bothering you?' he inquires whilst gently rubbing your arms.
The damn smartphone is what is bothering me, is actually what you want to say, but you do not want to seem clingy. No, this needs a different approach. 'It's just that I want some time with you, offline and without cameras of any sort, even if it is your own. Just us for a little while, without the world knowing.'

His lips curl up in a small grin. 'You know I will never share a picture of us or just you without your permission.'
'I know, but I also meant the boys in this case. Just this once I do not want them to know what we're up to. Moreover, even if you send a photo to them, there will be a risk it will get leaked anyway. Not by them of course, I would trust them with my life, but there is always someone working behind the curtains that is skilled and can steal such information without our knowledge. Hope, just for today, no phones.'
'Fair enough. You're right. No mobiles, no internet, no hyungs. Nothing but you and me.' His smile becomes even brighter when he notices the spark in your eyes as he makes the promise. This is what he lives for, your happiness.
'Thank you,' you mumble, a smirk forming on your face because of him. Whenever he smiles, he becomes contagious so you cannot help but smile too. Yet only his can rival the sun in brilliancy.
However, even though the glowing orb in the sky forms the life for others, Hoseok forms your life. He is your sun, your only sun.

A modern man chased immortality and found it. In a mixture of good and bad luck, he was re-born as part of the Uzumaki clan from the Naruto-verse, some few years before their scheduled destruction. But if Daichi were the sort to allow a little thing like fate to get in his way, he'd never have survived in the first place. Dedicated, intelligent, chock full of ideas from a technologically advanced society, and perfectly willing to scorch the earth, he sets out to avert history. Can he avert canon, save the Uzumaki, and forge his people into a mighty nation? Or will he fail, dooming his clan to extinction? At the end of the day, all he wants is a good life. And considering even Death itself didn't stop him, he pities whoever gets in his way. ================== Tags: Naruto, Reincarnation, OC, eventual multi-cross. ================== Author's (Brief) Note: Back by popular demand. This was my first significant fanfic (and fic in general). I wasn't happy with the writing as time went on, and took it down, but years later am still getting requests to put it back up so I guess some people liked it. Newly re-released as I finish some minor editing, there are about 100,000 words (~360 RRL pages) already written, so releases should be fast until I catch up with the backlog. That said, it may languish in hiatus at that point if the interest isn't high enough to merit continuing, so if you're the type to only read finished stories (or ones where the author promises to do so), I am very specifically not promising that. On the other hand, if enough people read, like, review, comment, rate, etc. then it will get added to my writing schedule. Generally, the character is based on a “how badass could someone who hasn't done ridiculously crazy shit be? Or, how does someone with the potential, in another setting, with a lot of luck, to be a badass act and develop as a modern, productive member of society? And then how would they deal with the Naruto-verse?” Please, please do not judge my writing by this. Unless you really like it, in which case fine, do, but recognize my other writing is likely better (unless it’s that one MTG/ASoIaF/SW fic I did over on SB as a speed-writing experiment, which is also pretty terrible).
8 255Vell, the Gluttonous Mirror [HIATUS]
(Loop, END?) When he died, Al's grandfather left behind a mystery: a set of notes describing the creation of...well, Al wasn't quite sure. He knew magic was real, and that his grandfather was not crazy, but his knowledge ended there. Nonetheless, He vowed to complete his grandfather's legacy. Al decided to seek help from an expert. (Pause. Process. Reset.) Al's employer, Bram, is an expert. Probably. Relatively speaking. As a paranormal investigator, he knew a fair bit about magic. Sure, he didn't really comprehend magic's inner workings, but that was understandable: Bram had discovered magic by pure chance. Together, the pair investigate mysteries and urban legends that defy normal explanation. Of course, though they might be clueless, Magicians still walk the earth…and Al’s grandfather left behind more than some dusty notes… Now, if only Al could discover why— (Loop, START.)
