i have a lot of ideas for fics but when i start to write suddenly there's no order everything is a mess and i can't communicate well with the reader.

i end up giving up and not finishing it, and that keeps happening and now i have various drafts sitting there collecting dust.

english isn't even my first language, i write in spanish in hopes that perhaps that way i can write more but turns out language isn't the problem.

care to share any tips with me to make writing easier? stupidly obvious tips work too. thanks in advance.

The state of this fandom over Mina is honestly just devastating.

I genuinely can’t fucking believe that instead of seeing people saying “rest in peace” or expressing condolences, I’m seeing people worrying about Sunoo’s or Ni-ki’s reaction. Are we actually being serious right now?

Someone has literally fucking died, and the first thing you can think about is how your bias is going to react?

I think I’m done with this fandom. I can’t share spaces with people whose priorities are this unbelievably messed up.

Hey everyone!

Can anyone recommend some good RIIZE fanfics? I've been looking on Wattpad, but there don't seem to be that many, or at least not any really popular ones.

I'm mainly looking for hetero (member x female OC / reader) fics. Any platform is fine (Wattpad, AO3, Tumblr, etc.).

I'd especially love anything that's well-written and has a good plot, not just romance.

Thanks in advance! 🧡

I've recently become a new BRIIZE and I'm still trying to catch up with everything that's happened around the group, so please bear with me if I get something wrong.

I've been listening to RIIZE's title tracks since debut, but I never really got into the group. Then I heard Fame... and that was it. 😭 It completely pulled me in. I also have to admit that Anton was kind of my "bait" into the group. He caught my attention first, and from there I started paying more attention to everyone else.

One thing I noticed immediately is how professional they feel. They have this aura and stage presence that I can't really explain, but I really like it.

While trying to catch up, I also came across the recent controversy surrounding Eunseok and the word he used on Bubble ("kamdonggi"). From what I've read, it's considered a racial slur.

I wanted to share my perspective, but I'm also genuinely open to being corrected if I'm misunderstanding something.

I'm not white either, I'm part of an ethnic minority myself and I've experienced racism. Where I live (Spain), there are also racist terms that have unfortunately become normalized in everyday language. That doesn't make them okay, and I'm not trying to excuse the use of them. In fact, it's something I'd like society to move away from.

I guess that's why I found this situation a bit confusing. My first thought was that if a word has been normalized for generations, some people might use it without fully thinking about its history or impact. That doesn't automatically mean they're racist or that they hate Black people. Of course, I don't know Eunseok personally, so I can't speak on what he believes—I'm only talking about how I initially interpreted the situation.

If I'm missing important context about why this particular term is especially harmful, or why people reacted the way they did, I'd genuinely appreciate if someone could explain it to me. I'm here to learn, not argue.

Also... could someone give me a summary of everything I've missed? 😭 Especially regarding Seunghan's departure and any other major events or controversies involving the group. As a new fan, I feel completely lost.

Thanks in advance! Please be kind. I genuinely want to understand and learn.

I was looking for songs similar to FAME, and I just realized something... RIIZE has so many songs that I don't just like—I genuinely love.

How am I only realizing this now??

And the craziest part is that most of them are B-sides that barely anyone outside of BRIIZE seems to talk about. It feels like most people only listen to whatever goes viral on TikTok or the title tracks. To be fair, I did the exact same thing because it's just easier than sitting down and exploring an artist's discography.

But it honestly surprised me because... aren't we here for the music?

Sometimes I feel like we've kind of lost the plot. I see songs getting hyped just because they're trendy, even when they do absolutely nothing for me (Iconic by Mistake, Pinky Up... I'm sorry, I just don't get it 😭).

Then I listened to songs like Odyssey and Honestly by RIIZE, and I was genuinely blown away. I'm not even exaggerating when I say they almost made me tear up because they fit my taste so perfectly. That feeling is exactly why I love discovering new music in the first place.

RIIZE deserve so much more credit for their B-sides. They're seriously incredible.

Am I the only one who feels this way, or did anyone else completely sleep on their discography?
