sparklingjin reporting for a friendly PSA. The header is me wondering how I got here.

this is not an official chapter. I repeat. THIS IS NOT AN OFFICIAL CHAPTER. The next actual release is on 9/1 or 9/2 (September 1st or 2nd). So, feel free to skip out of this installment, but if you do, you'll miss this mini Tear the Sky Party!!!

Now that that's over with, it's time for my favorite expression.

Holy.

Granola.

Bar.

We did it, guys!

Tear the Sky has officially surpassed 1,000 votes as of August 28th!

my initial reaction was

then...

I try to tell you all as often as possible that this is not because of me. This is your support, and I am grateful for you. Together, we are a team and having your support has been as rewarding as doing what I love. To especially thank you, I've made Grey's character's aesthetic and you'll be able to glimpse it below. All of the characters in Tear the Sky have one of these and they also have different versions. At a later date, you'll be able to see the rest. Until then, enjoy Grey's!

Grey Aesthetic - Midnight Version

Grey Aesthetic - Dusk Version

And as promised, I'll publish an author tag. If you wanna learn more about your friend, M, then keep reading!

SO HERE'S THE TAG

I actually got tagged in this months ago by @LilMochiBear, but I wanted to wait before answering. Also, I will not be tagging others because I don't want anyone feeling obligated to respond. Lol, just know that if you're reading this, I sincerely hope you are living your best life out here in these streets.

1. How long have you been a fan of BTS?

- Over two years now! First saw 'em on the 2017 Billboard Award Red Carpet. Let me tell ya, I didn't know who the hell they were. But I was READY TO FIND OUT. So, I watched the Blood, Sweat, and Tears MV to see if they were worth the hype... Long story short, I stared at my computer like

are these kings or music artists?

2. Who was your first bias?

- Before declaring myself neutral, I had the BIGGEST crush on Namjoon. (EDIT 6/17/20 - I STILL DO.)

3. Who is your bias now?

- If they were all drowning, and I had a boat with enough gas to save only one member... I'd jump off my boat. Lol, but honestly how can I pick one? That's like asking me to pick a favorite food. Too much delicious stuff to choose from. *shrugs* (EDIT 6/17/20 - I'm cringing at my own answer to this. Still OT7 but Joon and Jin will always have a special place)

4. Member who I think ruins my bias list?

- So heads-up, this could change as quickly as tomorrow, but since he's still nagging at my every waking thought... I'm just gonna say it.

JUNGKOOK IS NOT A BABY.

LOOK AT HIM.

BABIES ARE NOT THAT HOT.

Like wtf?!

That is a GROWN ASS MAN. And a threat to my neutrality. I rest my case. (EDIT 6/17/20 - the decision still stands.)

5. How long did it take for you to learn their names?

- LMFAO at least a week and a half. I'm sorry. I could not distinguish them or their voices or their actions.

6. Have you seen all their vlogs?

- Nah. Don't know where to find 'em

7. Have you seen all their bombs?

- Refer to answer on 6.

8. Purchased any merch?

- Stepdad bought me socks from their debut age, I have a sweatshirt with their old logo, and a Rap Monster jersey/shirt. Remember when he used to be called Rap Monster? What a time to be alive.

9. Favorite pre-debut song?

- We Are Bulletproof pt. 1 (I missed this entire era but when I see the gold chains I can't help but start wheezing)

10. Favorite song from their 2 Cool 4 Skool album?

- NO. MORE. DREAM. The freaking school bus. I'm howling just thinking about it.

11. Member who I think I share the most in common with.

- I am Jin, and Jin is me. Same birthdays, same height; we both adore pink, eat more than usual, watch anime, are guilty of being mothers in our friend group, make bad jokes, love ourselves, and we never miss an opportunity to blow kisses.

12. Brotherly member.

- Jungkook is also a dork. Best brother material ever.

Don't fight me on this.

13. Member with potential acting career.

*laughs in Taehyung*

14. Favorite stage outfit.

- the harnesses for Fake Love were so wild.

15. I PREFER NO MORE DREAM OVER WE ARE BULLETPROOF PT. 2. Not only is it a classic, but it's an origin story.

That's it for this mini TTS party!

THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU AGAIN. This is ours, together.

I'm running out of image story limit so... I'm gonna go now.

With love,

M ;)
