— & YOU’RE MAKING THE TYPICAL ME BREAK MY TYPICAL RULES.

seol’s been told she has no filter. foot-in-mouth disease. whatever euphemisms you can come up with to describe someone whose brain never seems to be on speaking terms with their mouth. it’s not a bad thing, per se, but she’s vowed to be more tactful upon her enrollment into yosul. think before she speaks and all. 

but can you really blame her for laughing? she’s been watching the guy opposite her struggle with getting his broom up ( not a metaphor for anything else, ya nasties! they were at a flying lesson! ) for the majority of their lesson. offering unwarranted help might possibly come off as a little uppity, so she resolves to just hide her giggles as he yells “up!” at his broom behind a series of coughs into her sleeve. 

he seems to finally lose it.  

so does the broom.

"yeah, the broom like... yeeted up!” seol’s always been good at charades, and she gestures with big movements, with hushed whispers as she demonstrates just how the handle of the broom had broken his nose. kinam - at least, that’s what the name on the chart says - is pretty tall as well. she wonders just how angry the broom had been at him.

her peripheral vision catches a movement through the curtain separating her and his cot, and she pulls it open, popping her head in. “oh, are you awake? good morning!”

JIYI ! ‌:

(...)

jiyi takes another bite of her bagel, the tartness of the orange she’d just eaten mixing with the sweet-savoury cream cheese. “is that why you’re here?” she raises the bagel, her supper for the night, and nods to the platter of fruit that the house elves are preparing, clearly for the other girl.

the pun’s so terrible she can’t even find it in herself to laugh at how bad it’d been, and it’s clear that jiyi’s not impressed with it either. seol’s smile drops, and she’s sure she looks just about as amused as the house elf. seol feigns a half-hearted “ha... sure am.”, the expression on her face a clear indicator otherwise. 

seol’s not quite sure when exactly she’d aged out of playdates and graduated to networking; every meeting supposed to be about forming connections that could prove useful for the future. though they’d bored her to tears at the time, at least playdates were free of hidden motives. the networking was left to the adults- the kids’ only tasks to occupy themselves for the few hours they talked business and be in one piece by the end of it. 

now that she thinks about it, this might be her longest unprompted conversation thus far with jiyi, and she’s already been surprised. while jiyi didn’t exactly seem like a stickler for the rules, seol wouldn’t have expected that the other was a curfew-breaking miscreant like her. “i’ll keep that in mind!” she hums around a mouthful of bagel.

“well...” how does she explain this without seeming like a complete idiot? “i fell asleep in the baths before dinner because i was reading a potions text... then woke up all pruney way after curfew. then i got hungry so i decided to try looking for the kitchens by myself, instead of just hiding in the baths! i remembered hearing the entrance was near the jujak commons, so i knocked on every portrait. got scolded twice, actually, before the lady in the green hanbok pointed me!”

— AMBITION AND VERVE.

it’s been an unusually long day. 

if seol was one to wax poetic, she’d lament about how minutes seem to tick by far too slow, hours stretching into endless roads paved with the sands of time.

she’s not, though, and she just thinks today fucking sucks and she’s tired and wants to go to sleep the minute transfiguration ends. she’d stayed up the entire night before studying for a potions test, because seol was going to get an O even if it killed her.

( she killed it, by the way. answered all the questions with no problem! )

but!!! nothing was ever without consequence, and seol found herself absolutely exhausted by hour 15 of studying. she’d given up on getting sleep when she’d looked at the window to see the sun peeking over the horizon, and turned up for classes barely alive. transfiguration’s the last class of the day, though, and they’re supposed to be doing something reasonably easy today. seol’s sure she’s going breeze through, and breeze through she does! ( granted, she almost falls asleep into her water goblet, but! )

until end of the class rolls around, and seol’s turned her bookbag inside out looking for the essay on the reparifarge spell she’d slaved over in the library last week for a good 5 hours. her classmates have all left, some of them casting concerned glances at her, but she can’t find it within herself to assure them of her mental stability because she can feel herself about to cry, as she flips through her textbooks yet again to make sure it hasn’t sneaked in there somehow.

it’s not there.

seol makes a distress call similar to that of a boiling tea kettle, and slides down into her seat.

— 오늘은, 유난히, 네가 이뻐 보인다!

this is new to her. the whole ‘taking care of people’ thing? it’s never been something that she’s ever really had to do, or has ever wanted to, actually. she’s always been babied-- by the han family, cheol, ( it’s TWO AND A HALF MINUTES ??!! ) kyung, and pretty much anyone she’s ever interacted with. babie energy, she supposes.

but here she is, sitting behind one of the tapestries with junsu, a BIGGER babie than her. "y’know, you don’t... have to drink it.” the flask full of firewhiskey is balanced dangerously on top of her knee-- one wrong move, and it’d come crashing down and stain the pretty dress she’d dug out of her trunk just for this event. 

how did she even end up here, anyway?

ah, right. he’d been in the baek ho commons, and offered to escort her for the short walk to the dining hall. “i really only brought this to pre-game for this shit, in case it’s like, boring as fuck.”

JIYI ! ‌:

(...)

she laughs and shakes her head, a little sheepish that she’s become that predictable. “nope! though they look like a really good supper snack…” she caves and takes a bite from one, then holds the other one out to the younger girl. “do you want one? they’re really good!”

see, seol doesn’t like being forced to do things. her childhood’d been crammed full of playdates with the children of other Very Important Families, and she usually ended up running away and entertaining herself by breaking one thing or another. the wons were (and still are!) important business associates, though, and seol’d been brought aside and bribed to behave before all their playdates. jiyi was someone she’d vaguely known before yosul-- too many years her senior for her to be comfortable with, but someone she’d smile at if she ever saw passing by. 

sitting in a corner in the kitchen reminds hers oddly of the won playdates. the elves' movements demand her rapt attention-- seol’s absolutely inept in the kitchen, and she’s just trying to not get in their way. 

the knock sends her into a panic, though, and she scrambles up onto her feet. would a wheel of cheese would be able to hide her? the door swings open before she can try to dive behind it ( probably a good thing. she’s 172 cm, it’d just be humiliating if someone saw her try to hide behind cheese. ) and jiyi pokes her head in. seol clutches at her chest in a show of relief, letting out the breath she’d been holding. 

“my god, i totally thought i was gonna get in trouble. hi!” a smile finds a way onto her face easily, waving back with the same, if not more, enthusiasm. the elves are offering jiyi bagels, and seol gets an inkling the other girl’s here often with how familiarly the elves are addressing her. it’s seol first time in the yosul kitchens, ever-- actually, she hasn’t really had cause to ever step into a kitchen-- and the house elves had scared her with how they’d swarmed around at first, asking what she required. 

“ooh, i will! thanks! they’re cutting some fruit for me, too, so you’re welcome to stay and share it with me.” the fruit platter they’re preparing seems to be more fit for a house than seol, but she doesn’t quite have the heart to tell them to stop.

SEONCHAN ! ‌:

ッ written w insanity for @mmseol .

━ ⟨ › he sits across from her with a frown that’s focused, a thought that something feels off but then the warmth in his chest argues that he’s just stupid. he was missing something this whole time and it’s seol who’s going to fill it. the heavy tingle of pleasant warmth when he thinks of what it’s like to love and be in loved, and he’s completely sure this is right. his cards buzz in his bag and he can feel the urge to take them out but, why does it feel like they’ll say something he doesn’t want to read right now? seol is definitely someone that matters, seol is the person he was meant to meet tonight ⟩ ━  ❞ y’know, seol-ah, it’s so weird, but like, like it’s so stupid, but i thought i loved sung? ❞   ━ ⟨ › he blinks away the fog of his head to focus on seol ; he was looking for someone before wasn’t he? he looks away from seol to glance around at what he was looking for but it’s irrelevant now and his eyes snap back to her again before even seconds pass ⟩ ❞ it’s super, duper weird. i don’t know why i keep thinking that. i think something’s so stupid, haesung isn’t the person i should love, right? ❞  

( ` there’s a pleasant buzz in her head that she’d typically recognise as alcohol. but god, this isn’t something as simple and boring as soju, it’s love. call the tabloids, everyone, because seol will never fall for anyone else BUT the beautiful specimen in front of her, known as one chae seonchan. ) i know, right ? like, my previous crushes were all so dumb. i understand now. this... this is true love. ( ` looks around because chan’s looking around too, and her eyes return to where his are back on hers. chan is so fuckin’ cute!!!! why hadn’t she ever noticed him as a guy before this? ) oh my god... what if... he was jealous of our love, because it’s so great ? and HE slipped you a love potion or something ? my poor channie-oppa ! ( ` coos, patting his cheek. no one’ll ever think of taking chan from her away ever again. they’re gonna get married once she’s 20, and then they’ll have 10 kids and teach them how to dream. a very taylor swift-esque sentiment, but  seol doesn’t think anything could ever come close to their love-- she could wax poetry about him until the end of her living days, but nothing would ever be able to capture even one-tenths of the depth of her feelings for chan. )

MINBYEOL !‌ :

(...)

before she could open her mouth in retaliation, someone blocked her path. min byeol raised her eyebrows and said, “ eonnie, could you maybe move a little ? i’m kind of busy here. “

seol’s day starts like this-- she wakes up late, because she’d studied well into the night before. misses breakfast because halfway there, she realises her wand is NOT where it’s supposed to be snugly tucked into the waistband of her skirt, and has to turn back to get it. gets stuck on a moving staircase. and then, to put the cherry on top of the shit sundae, walks into a suit of armour, because she was so preoccupied with checking her bookbag to make sure she hadn’t forgotten anything in the commons.

so, yeah. not off to the best start.

why had she followed the group of jujaks who'd been laughing about some poor first year who’d opened a howler at breakfast? was this god’s way for punishing her for being so nosy? why did all the goddamn corridors in this dumbass place look the same? yosul’s an absolute architectural nightmare, for someone with a sense of direction as lacking as hers.

she rounds a corner, and then another, before realising that this is most definitely not where the second year charms classroom is. firsties are milling around her ( tiny!!! they’re all so mini. and cute! ) and she makes a move to turn back, because the watch on her wrist tells her she has only 10 more minutes to figure out how the hell to get to class. 

but nooooooooooo.

there’s a group of girls blocking the way, taking up a good 90% of the corridor. what the fuck? when the fuck did they get here? why does she suddenly feel like she’s in a shitty high school b movie? why does this remind her of that maeobsa movie she watched in middle school with cheol? what the fuck, is she cady heron?

oh, it’s the girl who’s standing with a hand on her hip who’s the cady heron. 

see, seol’s determined to stay out of ( or get into relatively less ) trouble this year. she doesn’t want to jeopardise her spot on the team, and time not spent scrubbing cauldrons in detention is time she’d be able to use to study. so, for once, she thinks about what to do. ( call the press ! )

“hey, kids.”  she’s taller than all of them, she realises, as she pushes in between the group. “don’t you have to get to class? stop blocking the way. others need to walk too.”

three, two, she’s going to make it! seol slams her hand down on the handle of the door leading to the baek ho dorms, and she SWEARS she feels it budge. 

a moment passes. she pauses, trying to jiggle it, as if it’s going to make a difference. it’s Magic that’s keeping the door locked, and the bobby pins in her hair aren’t going to help her macgyver her way in. seol glances surreptitiously to her sides, before sliding her wand out her sleeve and whispering an ‘alohomora’.

damn it.

fine. okay. she expected this anyway. if her little unlocking charm was able to unlock the door to their dorms, seol’d be very worried for the security of the place. she massages her scalp with her fingertips, squatting down with a weighty exhale. it’s way past curfew, and seol isn’t inconsiderate enough to wake her roommates up to let her in. she caused this mess, so she’s going to fix it herself.

the phone rings a couple of times before yuanlan picks up, and seol greets her with a flat “heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeelp.”
