Alphawolfchan: Gave it my best effort!! 😄 [attached: picture of a slightly-wonky origami whale. two eyes and a smile have been drawn on in black marker, and the whale has clearly been carefully posed in order to produce the best possible picture.]

kimseungmin: Another failure. Not sure how much longer I can go on. I am not built for inadequacy. [attached: photo of a perfectly respectable origami elephant. not as sharp as his other works, but still quite good.]
↳ lixfoldsprotector: @kimseungmin no offense but why do you keep making these? it seems like it makes you miserable
↳ kimseungmin: @lixfoldsprotector Making me do this is an effort on the part of my company-mandated therapist to keep me from being so high-strung.
↳ CraneJeongin: @kimseungmin wow haha it really is not working
↳ lixfolds [creator]: @kimseungmin ahh oh no i’m sorry my page is stressing you out so much :( your elephant looks great to me
↳ lixfoldsprotector: @kimseungmin tell Felix it isn’t his fault that you’re having a crisis about origami
↳ kimseungmin: @lixfoldsprotector Who even are you?
↳ lixfoldsprotector: @kimseungmin [picture of a bicep flexing]
↳ kimseungmin: @lixfolds It’s not your fault I’m having a crisis about origami
hanji: very cool ELEPHANT! [attached: blurry photo of… something. could perhaps be an origami elephant if one squinted their eyes and tilted their head to the left. the photo is taken against a mirror, so the man taking the photo can be seen in the image. his eyebrows are furrowed in concentration. he’s clearly focusing intently on taking what might be the worst origami photo known to man.]
↳ hhj: @hanji wow great elephant! is that you in the mirror? 🙂
↳ hanji: @hhj oops yes it is ME!
↳ hhj: @hanji you’re very cute :)
↳ hanji: @hhj very kind of you to call my elephant CUTE!
hhj: wow this was nearly impossible [attached: photo of a crumpled ball of paper. picture was clearly taken posthaste]
↳ hhj: @hhj wow i wish someone would help me
↳ lixfolds [creator]: @hhj i would love to help!!!! can you maybe try doing it again, step-by-step, and commenting when you get confused?
↳ hhj: @hhj wowww i wish someone who made a very cool origami elephant could come help me
↳ lixfolds [creator]: @hhj yes hi i’m thrilled to help!!
↳ hhj: @hhj i guess no one will help poor little me…
↳ lixfolds [creator]: @hhj are my comments not going through?
↳ hhj: @hhj @hanji
CraneJeongin: [picture of an origami crane]
lino: i had a stressful day thank you for the relaxing time
↳ lixfolds [creator]: @lino happy to help!! i’d love to see your elephant if you’d like to show it off 😄
↳ lino: @lixfolds can’t. confidential
↳ lixfolds [creator]: @lino the elephant is confidential?
↳ lino: @lixfolds the documents used to make it are. will have to burn it in a minute. tragic animal loss.
↳ lixfolds [creator]: @lino oh
anon: This is the worst elephant of all time. This fucking origami is shit and I hope this creator gets hit by a bus.
↳ lino: @anon @lixfoldsprotector changbin you should come take a look at this
↳ lixfoldsprotector: @anon I sent a screenshot of this to your mother’s Facebook account
↳ lixfoldsprotector: @anon @lino How do you know my name?
Alphawolfchan: This one is a bit tricky! I think I’m a little tripped up on step eighty-two. Felix, any insight? [attached: picture of a slightly-mangled piece of origami paper. he’s clearly been trying for a while.]
↳ lixfolds [creator]: @Alphawolfchan hi and thank you for the comment!! i think the issue is the squash fold, which can be a hard one to master. i’ve attached a vid of me explaining it! let me know if you have any further questions! [attached: video of felix carefully explaining a squash fold.]
↳ Alphawolfchan: @lixfolds Got it!! Thanks!! [attached: picture of a worse-for-wear, but standing, elephant origami.]

CraneJeongin: [picture of an origami crane]
↳ kimseungmin: @CraneJeongin Have you considered making something that isn’t a crane?
↳ CraneJeongin: @kimseungmin what
↳ kimseungmin: @CraneJeongin You always comment a picture of what you made, and it’s always a crane. This is a tutorial for a chicken. You could try making that instead of a crane?
↳ CraneJeongin: @kimseungmin what
↳ CraneJeongin: @kimseungmin why would I do that
↳ CraneJeongin: @kimseungmin I make cranes
↳ CraneJeongin: @kimseungmin why would I make a chicken
↳ CraneJeongin: @kimseungmin a chicken is not a crane
↳ CraneJeongin: @kimseungmin I make cranes
↳ lino: @CraneJeongin @kimseungmin great work, kim seungmin
↳ kimseungmin: @lino How do you know my name? You also knew lixfoldsprotector’s on the other post. Who are you? What is your mission with us?

hanji: BEAR! [attached: bad mirror photo of jisung’s horrible origami with jisung in the mirror again. this time, he’s shirtless.]
hhj: i’ve lost all of my artistic skill 😢😢 [attached: mirror photo taken from the bed. the tiny origami paper is but a speck on the dresser. instead, the main focus is a lithe man lounging elegantly on the bed in a red robe.]
↳ hhj: @hhj @hanji do you think you can help me?
↳ hanji: @hhj i cannot see the origami clearly enough!!
↳ hanji: @hhj very BEAUTIFUL person on the bed though!!
↳ hanji: @hhj is that you?

↳ hhj: @hanji i am a man
↳ hanji: @hhj that is dope me also! man twins
↳ hhj: @hanji oh well maybe don’t say that
kimseungmin: This was difficult to make seeing as I don’t have a hydraulic press to fold the paper twenty times.
↳ lixfoldsprotector: @kimseungmin It’s not Felix’s fault you’re horrible at making origami
↳ kimseungmin: @lixfoldsprotector For the love of God they’re using the display name “licks folds” on the internet. Clearly they need to be knocked down a peg over at least SOMETHING
Alphawolfchan: This one might be beyond my abilities 😕 [picture of chan making a frowny face at the camera.]
↳ lixfolds [creator]: @Alphawolfchan no i believe in you!!!!
↳ lixfolds [creator]: @Alphawolfchan … if you’d like, we can call and i can help you figure it out
↳ Alphawolfchan: @lixfolds you’d be open to that?
↳ lixfolds [creator]: @Alphawolfchan yeah haha are you single? and do you like men?

↳ Alphawolfchan: @lixfolds ?
↳ lixfolds [creator]: @Alphawolfchan uh do you like men and their boyfriends? [attached: picture of felix and changbin. changbin is kissing felix’s cheek.]

↳ CraneJeongin: @lino Who are you
CraneJeongin: [picture of an origami crane]
↳ kimseungmin: @CraneJeongin I like the color!
↳ CraneJeongin: @kimseungmin Don’t try to atone for your sins now. Useless
