La Vie en Rose (Bede and young!Opal time travel fic)

La Vie en Rose (Life in Pink) Rating: T (for character deaths and language) Chapter 2/10 - Meeting Celebi (length: ~3k words) Summary: Bede doesn’t get why that loony old bat Opal wants him to be the next Fairy-type Gym Leader. To help him understand, Opal has Celebi take Bede back to the time of her youth.

(For other chapters, look up the tag “pokemon la vie en rose” or go to my profile)

As Bede carried the photos downstairs, a single burning question pervaded his thoughts: how did Opal’s nose get so long? Did she tell too many lies? Did she look at her feet too much and gravity pulled her nose down? But he thought it better to keep his mouth shut about that.

Once at the kitchen, Opal brewed tea while Obstagoon made salad sandwiches for lunch. Exactly what kind of salad sandwiches changed with each day. Today was egg salad. Opal’s hands were too frail and shaky to handle a knife, so she left that task to Obstagoon.

She had her back to Bede while she prepared the tea, but as she turned to give him his teacup, she said, “I’m sorry for getting upset with you. I didn’t mean to frighten you.”

“I wasn’t scared,” he quickly insisted. “It’s my fault, anyway. I shouldn’t have poked around where I shouldn’t be.” He ventured a question. “Why did you want to forget those photos?”

She settled into her chair with a shuddering sigh. “When you get to be as old as I am, Bede, you’ll learn that revisiting distant and dusty memories of people you’ve outlived can really hurt. If I was going to pick someone to inherit my Gym Leader mantle, I had to look to the future, not the past. I didn’t want to lose my focus, and I didn’t want to feel the pain. So I locked those memories away, and enough years passed so I couldn’t get up that attic and remember where I last left them.”

Bede didn’t know what to say to that. What could he possibly say to offer comfort or a solution? He set the photos over the dining table, muttering thanks to Obstagoon as the Pokemon offered him a slice of sandwich on a plate. He took that as a forgiving gesture from Obstagoon for upsetting Opal earlier. Typical of women her age, Opal avoided foods that would be hard on her teeth and gums, so it had been a while since Bede chewed on something like crackers and candy. Not that he complained. Obstagoon knew how to make good sandwiches.

“But now you don’t want to put away those photos anymore because of me,” Bede said.

Opal smiled at him. “You’re the chosen one. I’ve completed the hardest part of my task. Now that I can see the future, a future with you in it, I can afford to look back at the past without it hurting so much.” The old woman gazed down at the photos and took a long, thoughtful sip of her tea. “My, it’s been a long time since I’ve looked back at my better days.” She ran a hand through her snow-white hair. “This used to be so dark.” Then she tapped the tip of her long nose. “And this...” She glanced up at Bede with a twinkle in her eyes. “You’re probably wondering how this turned into a broomstick on my face.”

He merely hid his smirk behind the teacup in reply.

Opal tapped at her nose again. “Runs in the family, unfortunately. Got it from my dear old mum. Hers came in even earlier than mine. Ah, speaking of Mum, there she is. My last photo with her.” She pointed with a long painted nail at the two women standing in front of the Ballonlea Gym. Next to a young Opal—who Bede guessed to be in her late teens—was a woman with wild, dark hair down to the middle of her back, with wide eyes that seemed perplexed and distant before the camera. While Opal smiled for the picture and was well-dressed in a stylish blouse and skirt, her mother had a tight-lipped frown and wore a shawl frayed at the edges. “She was quite the character, my mum. Even more kooky than me, if you could believe it.”

“Hard to believe,” Bede admitted.

Opal chuckled at that, then she pointed at another photo. “Mightyena, Obstagoon, take a look. Those Pokemon next to my Roger, they are your great-great-great...great grandfathers.” She had to think and count on her fingers to say that.

Obstagoon peered over Opal’s shoulder, while Mightyena, closer to the ground, had to prop both front paws on the table to look over the table edge. All three smiled for the photo, with Mightyena sitting on one side and Obstagoon standing at the other. Roger had one hand over Mightyena’s head and the other on Obstagoon’s shoulder. The present-day pair of Dark type Pokemon stared down at the photo, pleased and intrigued to see their ancestors for the first time.

“You take after them in every way, if I do say so myself,” Opal remarked. She pulled out another photo and addressed Bede this time. “There’s me on my first day as Gym Leader.”

Bede knew from the League Card that Opal must have eighteen by that time. Framed by the photo, inside the Gym stadium, an eighteen year-old Opal posed with straight-backed pride. From her hands on her hips to the smirk on her face, she radiated confidence. Alongside her were Weezing, Togekiss, Mawile, and Alcremie: the same team of Pokemon she used right up to her retirement. Same kinds of Pokemon, to be exact, but not the very same that had been with her seventy years ago. Those original Pokemon were long gone. Bede wondered how Gym battles were fought back then. Not for the first time since staying with Opal, he was reminded of how long she had been around, roughly five times longer than he’d been alive, and the fact never ceased to amaze him.

Opal picked up the photo that was on the verge of tipping over the tabletop. “Oh, here’s my old man, Sir Lionel Roy. And that’s me with my brothers.”

The family posed before a mansion this time, clearly not in Ballonlea. Opal was a little girl—Bede guessed before ten years old—and she cradled a Togepi egg in her arms. Standing rigidly beside her in suits were two boys, one nearly identical to Opal in height and hairstyle while the other was shorter and younger. The severe-looking man standing over them, their father, had a bristling mustache obscuring the top lip and a tophat tucked in one arm. The male Pyroar sitting beside him looked just as stern. The only one smiling in that solemn, formal family portrait was a Yamper at the feet of the older boy.

“That boy is my twin, Randall. The other one is Kestrel.”

“Your family looks loaded,” Bede remarked.

“Hardly anyone knows that these days,” she replied modestly. “I may have been born in Wynwall, but I spent most of my life here in Ballonlea.”

“Wynwall?”

“Don’t you know your Galar history, my boy? Where do you think that Chairman Rose got the name for the city he built? The land he settled on for his city was called Wynwall for ages.”

At her hint of exasperation, Bede scowled and stuck out his bottom lip. “I skipped lessons at the orphanage. I had crummy teachers who hit the back of your hand with a ruler and put you in timeout with a dunce hat on your head.”

“In that case, my dear, I don’t blame you for skipping them.” Opal patted his hand with sympathy, then resumed her grip on the teacup to drink the last of her tea. “Anyways, that’s my family. The Roy family.”

Bede scanned through the many photos Opal hadn’t mentioned and discussed. Pictures of her with Jasper: exhausted yet beaming as she held her newborn son for the first time, reading a book to him on his bed, caught in mid-laughter when he put a theatrical mask over his face the wrong way. Pictures of her with Roger: posing backstage in period costumes, swept up in the passionate wind of singing a duet on stage, dressed in their best and in each other’s embrace on their wedding day. Even through the sepia tone of old photos, a distant past, Bede could really feel the vibrant color of Opal’s spirit jumping out at him. He took in the portrayals of important people who once populated Opal’s life, then looked up to find a pitiful and lonely sight as she sat alone across from him. “What happened to them?”

She turned wistful eyes to the window. “All sorts of things. I could talk your ear off all day long and my rambling will put you to sleep better than a Pokemon could use Hypnosis, or I could invite someone who will do a much better job of showing you than I ever could.” Opal lowered her teacup to level a serious gaze at him. “Bede, my boy, there’s someone special I want you to meet. But first, we have to wait for the morning of spring equinox, and I have to prepare a special treat for that special someone.”

Bede scrunched up his brow in confusion. “That’s oddly specific.”

“Indeed. Did I already mention that our visitor’s quite special?”

“So who’s coming?”

But she wouldn’t tell him. Spring equinox was a week away, so Bede spent that week passing the time with reading Ruby’s book, training in Glimwood Tangle, keeping Opal’s house clean, and occasionally bugging her with the same question. Each time she would not answer, much to his dismay.

“You should be focusing on your studies,” she would tell him with a wagging finger. “If you don’t study, you’ll fail my quizzes.”

That lady just loved asking questions. She could come up with new ones every day without effort, and Bede had to be ready for any tricky ones she would give. She wanted him to know Fairy type Pokemon inside and out, just like she had.

Late at night before spring equinox, well past his bedtime, Bede watched Opal make a cheri berry pie that made his mouth water. But it looked too small of a serving even for him. Was Opal talking about a tiny child? At the crack of dawn, he followed her out of the cottage and deeper into Ballonlea, away from the human populace and where the mushrooms clustered closer overhead.

Bede glanced back at the house. “You’re not taking Mightyena or Obstagoon with you?”

“Our visitor is very shy and doesn’t take well to Dark type Pokemon. Best if it’s just the two of us coming up.”

Impatience gnawed at him like the jaws of a Mawile. “You’ve got to tell me, Ms. Opal. Just who are we about to see?”

She winked at him. “Someone who can’t resist the aroma of my cheri berry pie.”

That didn’t tell him anything. Bede found the old woman’s habit of withholding information maddening. A frustrated sigh slipped through his lips as he followed Opal through the tangle of moss, mushrooms, and the drooping branches of ancient trees.

“It was easier to crawl through here when I was a little girl,” Opal remarked. She opened up her umbrella to protect herself from the snagging, finger-like twigs above them. She had Bede hold the pie while she led the way through the dense undergrowth. Finally they stopped inside a ring of tiny yellow mushrooms. The tree before them was so large and old that moss hung down from the branches like a thick green curtain.

Opal folded up her umbrella and took the pie from Bede. “I have your favorite pie warm and ready for you,“ she called. “Come on out.”

All was silent and still for several moments. Bede could hear the blood pound through his ears. Then the curtain of moss rustled. A light-green shape darted from behind them. Bede’s eyes could barely track the winged, flitting blur before it stopped just in front of the pie Opal held out.

His jaw dropped. “Is that Celebi? That time-traveling Pokemon from the Johto region?”

Opal lowered the pie to the forest floor and grinned at him. “You know your Legendary Pokemon. Looks like you didn’t skip all your lessons at the orphanage.”

Bede’s cheeks warmed. “The only ones worth sitting through are the ones about Pokemon.” He shook his head in wonder. “Celebi...it really is real.” He lowered his voice to a whisper. He dared not raise it. If he did, he might just send the Pokemon flying back into hiding, he thought.

“Long time no see, Celebi,” Opal said fondly. “You still remember me, don’t you?” She pulled off the pink and black glove on her right hand. Bede noticed a large, jagged scar on her palm, and when she turned her hand over, the same scar appeared on the back of it. It was as if someone had stuck a knife straight through her hand. Celebi gently laid its small, light green hands over Opal’s right palm, then smiled at her with a soft affirmative “Bi.”

“I’m sorry that it’s been a while since I last paid you a visit,” she said. “I’m not getting any younger.”

Celebi touched its forehead against Opal’s and twirled in the air, perhaps to say that it didn’t mind and that it understood.

They watched Celebi eat the pie, then Opal glanced at Bede. “I need to teach you how to cook sometime. The quickest way to a Pokemon’s heart is through the stomach.” She looked back at the little green Pokemon. “You know, I’m lobbying for the scientific community to retype Celebi as a Fairy type.”

Bede raised his eyebrows at her. “How’s that going for you?”

She shrugged and turned up her palms. “Not making much traction, unfortunately. I’ve been trying for the past forty years. Those scientists can be a stubborn bunch, I tell you.” The corners of a smirk made small indents in her cheeks. “I did, however, manage to play a part in convincing other regions to retype many of their Normal types. Professor Magnolia and I collaborated on a thesis to present to the research community. Did you know that Galar was the first region to officially recognize Fairy types? It took a while for the rest of the world to catch on.”

Bede shook his head. “You sure are crazy about Fairy types, Ms. Opal.”

She merely grinned at his comment. “Not crazy. Passionate. You find that passion, something to live for, and that makes life worth living.”

Celebi finished the pie and wiped red stains from its mouth. Opal took the chance to address it again. “Celebi, this is Bede, who I’ve taken under my wing. He needs to understand why I chose him to be next Gym Leader of this town. It’s not an answer I can give shortly and easily. Celebi, darling, I have a big favor to ask you. Please help him understand by taking him back to the time of my youth.”

Celebi considered this for a moment, then smiled and nodded.

Bede took a step back. “W-wait. I’m going back in time? With Celebi? How long am I going to be traveling back?” Suddenly he wished he had spent that past week preparing for the journey ahead. If only that woman had let him know in advance! “Won’t I need to eat, drink, sleep, and...” His ears grew hot. “You know, use the loo?”

Opal waved a hand in dismissal. “Oh, don’t worry about all that. Celebi’s time-travel ability puts a peculiar effect on the human body, so that you leave and come back to find that barely a second had passed in the present day. You won’t be thinking about your usual bodily needs and functions. When Celebi takes you to another time, you’re not really there, in a sense. You’re there to observe only. You’ll have no physical presence and no power to alter the events you’ll see. Things would get quite hairy if that weren’t the case. Disrupts the continuum of time, creates paradoxes, and all that.”

Bede didn’t fully understand, but he nodded. “All right, then. And what about you, Ms. Opal? Are you coming with me?”

She shook her head. “There can’t be more than one self in the same era, which means that there can’t be young me and current me in the same time and place. I have to stay here in the present. So will your Pokemon. You won’t need them where you’ll be going. I’ll take care of them while you’re gone.”

Throughout his life, Bede had been alone and fending for himself. It had always been him against the world. Normally Bede wouldn’t trust his Pokemon with anyone, but he knew from his time with her that he could trust a seasoned and caring Trainer like Opal. He unhooked his belt of Poke balls and handed them over to her.

She hugged the belt to her chest, as if she understood the significance of his willingness and appreciated it. “You’ll be on your own, my boy, while you go see me seventy years ago. But don’t fret—Celebi is an excellent guide. You won’t get lost.”

Celebi danced a figure eight in the air and looked at Bede expectedly.

“It is ready to take you through time,” Opal said. “When it does this, take its hands and don’t let go.”

Bede stepped up to do as she told him. His fingers enveloped and closed over Celebi’s small hands. The time-traveling Pokemon from Johto tilted back its chin, closed its large eyes, and warm light emanated from its form. The light outshone the glowing mushrooms and sent ripples up the trees. Bede squeezed his fingers tighter around Celebi and shut his eyes, but that only made the insides of his eyelids go red.

Before the light engulfed everything, he caught Opal’s faint parting remarks. “Bede, my boy, you’ll find that you and I aren’t so different. You’ll understand what pink means. See you on the other side.”

Notes: Musical inspiration for this chapter was “Departing London” from The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe.

When and how did Opal get the scar? Only time-traveling will tell!

I thought it’d be cute to have a naming pattern in Opal’s family, so everyone has a name ending in -al or -el, like Lionel, Randall and Kestrel.

NU’EST W interview with @Star1 Magazine

(Trans: Melodia_Muse | Original Article)

What are your thoughts on your photo shoot with Labiotte that took you through a variety of concepts from sweet to chic?

Ren: I had so much fun. It was quite different from our usual photo shoot concepts, so I thought of it as an opportunity to show a new charming side of NU’EST W. I think we were able to take on both the sweet and chic concepts very well.

Baekho: I’ve never had makeup applied on my cheeks before. Putting blush on my cheeks made me feel a little shy for some reason.

Aron: We’ve never done a concept like this before so it was a little difficult at first, but I simply thought of it as a new challenge to tackle. I was looking at the photos in between takes and they looked pretty good, so I felt proud.

JR: I’m happy because I feel like we’ll be able to show various sides of ourselves through this photo shoot.

With the number of male beauty models growing, what do you think are NU’EST W’s charms?

Baekho: People around us often tell us that each member has a very distinct personality. We often hear that each member’s individuality can be clearly seen within NU’EST W’s overall charms.

Ren: Our fans sometimes call us “cold and handsome men.” I think they like that cold and cool image.

Do you have any skincare tips to share with people?

Baekho: I try to use one facial mask a day. I realized it’s not easy to remember to regularly use facial masks. I’ll work on it really hard for two days and then forget on the third day. But I still try my best to use one facial mask a day.

JR: All of the members use facial masks if we have an important scheduled activity coming up. Of the members, Ren is the one who puts the most care into his skincare routine. While Ren is already taking care of his skin before any acne pops up, I usually take care of my skin after I have trouble with acne.

Ren: I’m usually very thorough with my skincare because I have the type of skin that is prone to acne. When I first started, it used to take me quite a lot of time to apply all of my basic skincare products, but now that I’ve gotten used to it, I naturally began investing less time on basic skincare. And my skin tends to worsen if I eat greasy food or a lot of snacks, so I’m careful about what I eat.

What have you been up to since wrapping up promotions for “Dejavu”?

Baekho: We’ve each been enjoying our personal hobbies. And going out to eat delicious food. Though I’m on a diet, I really like to eat so I work out to make up for the things I eat.

Ren: Baekho exercises a lot these days. There are times when he goes to the gym in the early hours of the morning, and even when our scheduled activities end late at night, he doesn’t skip out and still goes to the gym. Seeing him go to the gym without fail like that, I think he’s amazing.

Aron: I recently went on a domestic trip with my friends. I had a relaxing time with them and took some time to recharge.

Ren: I like to go on walks. My hobby is to just walk around the park in front of our house or around the neighborhood.

Do you have a hobby that you all share together?

Ren: We all have different hobbies but we have similar taste in food. We all like the same foods so it’s easy to pick a menu when we order food to the dorms or go out to eat. The food we like most is grilled meat. We like flour-based snacks too. We eat fried chicken a lot.

Seeing that you have different hobbies, all of you must have different personalities as well?

Ren: JR has a very strong sense of responsibility. He also has very strong leadership skills as the leader of our group. We’re always grateful because he’s very good at leading the other members. He’s overflowing with charisma on stage, but off the stage, he’s very innocent and cute.

JR: Baekho has this unvarnished innocence. He’s always very honest. When he sets a new goal, he never gives up midway and always works hard until he reaches his goal.

Baekho: Aron has a lot of things he wants to do and a lot of dreams he wants to achieve. And when he’s faced with a problem, he’s the type of person who tries to resolve it quickly. Though he’s the oldest in the group, he’s so cute that he feels like the youngest at times. He has a lot of aegyo. He also buys us food pretty often.

Aron: The members know a great side of Ren that not many other people know very well. He’s very thoughtful, and he’s the kind of friend who will listen to the troubles and concerns of the people around him and give them lots of great advice.

We’re curious to know what kind of leader JR is when leading the group.

Baekho: He doesn’t try to be at the front on his own and he prefers to create an atmosphere of "Let’s all work together to make the team better.”

JR: I’m the leader of the group but I’m also just one member. We’re all in the same team, we’re all standing in the same place, and we’re all walking in the same direction, so I don’t want to act like I’m above anyone else. I want us to walk together. I don’t find it hard to be the leader. I’m naturally a very responsible person so I don’t see it as a source of stress or pressure.

You were able to perfectly complete your missions on SBS funE School Attack without being caught by the students.

JR: I don’t think the students recognized us at all. Haha. They probably never imagined we’d be roaming around their school wearing their uniforms.

Baekho: Still, we were trying to be as discreet as possible while moving around so we wouldn’t get caught. Because it’s a program in which we have to carry out missions without getting caught.

Ren: It was our first time wearing school uniforms in five years and it was nice because it felt like we were going back to our days in school. All of the members looked really good in school uniforms. It made me think that we’d do well if we were ever picked for a school uniform CF.

Aron: This was my first time wearing a school uniform in seven years and it reminded me a lot about the past. Through the program, it felt like I was able to go back to my days as a student.

What kind of students were NU’EST W back in the day?

JR: I was a very quiet and nice student. One of those ordinary kids you see at least one of in each class. I was pretty good at studying too. Up till my second year of middle school, I received full marks on my math exams for midterms and finals quite often.

Baekho: When I was in elementary school, I was a really good student and even placed in the top 10 of my grade with my scores. I was even the student president in sixth grade.

Aron: I was the kind of student who would work hard and play hard. I liked to study.

JR: I was the kind of student who always volunteered if our teachers asked us to showcase our talents. Haha. I often did cover dances for dance moves that were popular at the time.

The dance practice video you made after winning first place with “Dejavu” became a hot topic. Is there a reason you went with such extravagant costumes for your promised video?

Baekho: Before “Dejavu,” we’d dressed up in costumes after winning with “Where You At,” but we felt that video had been quite lacking. When we were watching the video, we thought to ourselves, ‘It would have been better if we’d taken our costumes even further.' So we all agreed that when we made our promise about first music show wins [for “Dejavu”], we’d go all out for this one.

Each member dressed up as a different character, but who had it the hardest?

JR: I think it was me who struggled the most because I had to wear that dinosaur costume for the video. The costume was bigger than I expected it to be. The tail was long so I fell over a couple of times.

Aron: That’s right. When we were dancing, it was JR who had the hardest time because of his outfit but when it comes to makeup, I think Baekho becoming a chicken and Ren becoming a cavity had it the hardest.

Baekho: When you get makeup done, it’s best to stay still and not laugh to make it easier for the makeup artists. But it was so hard for me to hold in my laughter whenever I looked next to me and saw what was going on with Ren.

Ren: We all laughed really hard before we started filming. Even just meeting each other’s eyes made us laugh. Because we got all the laughter out, we were able to hold it in when the cameras were rolling. Haha.

Have you already thought of what to do if you win first place with your next album?

JR: I want us to go even further with our transformations than we did with this one. It would be more like actual cosplay than just dressing up. I think it would be fun if we set a theme for all of us to follow.

Aron: I haven’t thought about future music show win promises yet. If we do get first place, I want us to do something that will bring joy to our fans.

You’ve taken on a wide variety of concepts during your seven years of activities. What has been the most memorable concept?

Ren: We really like to challenge ourselves so we take on a new concept with every album. I grew my hair out once. I think for me, our debut song “Face” is the most memorable concept. We wore school uniforms and were representing the viewpoint of teens, and we had hairstyles and accessories that matched each of our personalities. It was a song that had a unifying concept, but also showcased each member’s individuality.

JR: It’s so difficult for me to pick just one because all of them are precious to me. Whenever we come back with a new side of ourselves, it’s actually us opening that part of ourselves that already existed up to other people. It’s not something we forcibly have to create, so each concept is memorable to me.

What is the concept that best represents NU’EST W right now?

Ren: I think there are charms that you can only show in your early to mid-twenties. That feeling of being in the middle, not too young but not too mature, that’s the kind of thing we want to show.

Baekho composes music and writes lyrics. Which member would you want to write a solo track for as a gift?

Baekho: Each member has a different charm and vocal tone. JR’s voice suits lyrical music really well. Ren is very expressive, so I think he'd do well with trendy music. For Aron, I would create a song perfected with a rhythmical tempo and cute and hopeful lyrics.

JR is currently appearing as an MC on Mnet’s Love Catcher and JTBC’s LAN Cable Life. Did you find adjusting to variety shows difficult?

JR: I’m the kind of person who doesn’t sugarcoat my words and I truthfully say what I feel. I’m learning so much while filming because I have such great seniors around me. The people who have helped me the most on my variety show journey have been the cast members of JTBC’s Night Goblin. I learned so much from them. It was my first regular appearance on a show, and I was grateful to be appearing on a program with such great seniors despite having no experience in variety shows. I learned so much from them. It’s thanks to the people I worked with on Night Goblin that I’ve been able to appear on variety shows till now.

Do the other members have variety shows you want to appear in?

Ren: I want to appear on MBC’s I Live Alone. Although I live in a dorm with the other members, we each have our own rooms so they can just install cameras in my room. I think I’d be able to show a more natural side of myself if I filmed something at home, rather than if I filmed something in a studio or outside. I can show people how I like to dance at home, or even ordinary things like what I look like when I’m eating.

Aron: I’ll be ready for any program that will invite me. I think I’d be able to show the more mischievous side of myself if I appeared on variety shows.

Baekho: I want to appear on tvN’s Three Meals a Day. I like to cook, and I find the concept of escaping the city and filming in nature to be quite charming.

Aron was accepted to study journalism at NYU but gave it up to become a singer. We’re curious to know why you chose to become a singer.

Aron: I studied hard because I wanted to become a reporter, but I didn’t want to give up singing. I thought long and hard about it and picked singing in the end, and I’ve never regretted it. I’m happy right now because I get to do something I like. I want to keep being a singer and be with the other members for a long time. If I ever get the chance to later on, I’d still like to attend college and study.

Do you have any plans for an album release?

Baekho: We don’t have anything set definitively, but we’re working hard to return and show a better side of ourselves as soon as we can.

Aron: We all talk to each other about the stage very often. We’re always thinking about what kind of performance our fans would like most.

JR: We’re so grateful that [our fans] are always supporting us no matter what stage we prepare. It’s thanks to them that we’re able to release better albums and enjoy more growth. We want to repay our fans for their love. We’re constantly thinking about what our fans will like most as we prepare for our next activities.

There’s such a thing as a “7-year jinx for Idols” but you’ve been continuing your group activities and are closer than ever. Do you have a secret to your longevity?

Baekho: I don’t know. We’ve just been focusing on working hard and doing our best in every moment, and we find ourselves in our seventh year as a group already.

JR: I don’t think there are any secrets or tips. We’ve just spent a long time together and grown affectionate of each other, and we like each other. We treasure each other and I think that’s what has helped us stay together for seven years.

Are there any goals you want to achieve as NU’EST W?

JR: I want us to be a group that always brings happiness to our fans. We’ve earned this great second chance to perform again and do photo shoots like this, and it’s only possible because of all the love our fans give us, right? It’s because of their love that we’ve been given this opporunity to do our best in every moment, so we’re going to work hard to always bring happiness to our fans.

Ren: I think all singers dream of winning a Daesang (Grand Prize). Haha. We will continue to do our best to become a group that can win a Grand Prize.

Aron: I want us to repay all the love we’ve been given. We’ll continue to work hard and keep showing a better side of ourselves in every moment.

What are your future plans?

JR: We plan to keep doing what we’ve been doing till now, doing our best in every aspect possible. Whether it’s acting, variety shows, or creating new albums, we will work hard in our respective places. We will keep making an effort to meet our fans more often and create spaces for us to connect. Please wait for us just a little longer.

holy shit the absolutely dreamy looking pink gown on billie? beautiful. princess-like. loving the hazy look to the long train. could use some accessories/jewelry tho, methinks. but even w/o it, it’s a lovely dress.

harris reed... not a fan. i was willing 2 say it was Ok but i noticed the bottom half was, in fact, NOT dress layered w feather, but a sleek gold dress n then this weird sparse feather thing tht hangs over it n i went oh tht’s a no 4 me

j.lo’s outfit gives me pimp vibes im living 4 it. it radiates Power.

nas’ 1st outfit (the puffy gold 1) isnt all tht appealing 2 me... mayb if the puffy arm parts were replaced w smth tht jus draped from the shoulders or a mid-high collar 2 resemble a king’s cape but it looks a lil silly. 2nd outfit (gold suit) is p bold, i can dig it. not much 2 say on it bc it’s jus a gold suit of armor, ngl, but it’s not smth u see at a gala, so tht’s unique. 3rd outfit (gold bodysuit) was v pretty i like it.

grimes’ outfit honestly makes me think space warrior or smth n i rly like it? i dont typically like tht hairstyle, n the pattern on the outfit is still a lil eh, but i like the metallic mask n the makeup n the way the fabric drapes in gradient to black at the bottom. also a SWORD? is tht even allowed?? like, it apparently Was but surely they mustve got it checked out w met gala b4 bringing it, right? fun fact, it’s made from a melted AR-15, which kinda goes w the america theme, ironically enough. idk i rly dig this odd look.

love the dress n hair on lupita!! luv the glitter n overall shape tho n her hair!! is so pretty honestly. idk who this lady is but shes stunning.

frank ocean’s outfit is simple n ok BUT i dont the weird ugly robotic baby he was carrying. the outfit it had on too? like this... weird green patterned onesie or smth? UGLY as hell. at least chose a better onesie if ur gonna hav the weird baby prop... it doesnt even match w his outfit n the pattern is such a fucking ugly 1.

megan fox rly out here giving us devil mistress holy shit. it looks cool as all hell i luv it. hot as Hell, pun intended.

addison rae looks boring, im ngl :I the dress isnt all tht pretty n it’s kinda simple. like, not inherently ugly, per se (tho im not a v big fan of how it looks at the top of the dress) jus... feels basic.

ciara’s is football-themed, thus does matcht he theme 4 the event, america, n i do like the shade of green she used also glittery fabric n the shape of the dress near the bottom, but the parts to the side of the dress where it shows skin feel like they bring the look down, honestly... if it didnt hav them, it’d look better. but bc it has them, im not personally a big fan.

barbie ferreira is giving flapper vibes, n w the theme being america tht’s v fitting! lots n lots of pearls~ id say quite a few too Many pearls, as i wouldve preferred more fabric n stuff? but i can see what she was going for n i dont terribly dislike it! it’s ok.

kim’s outfit is ugly, end of story. dont try 2 go 4 so unique tht it looks awful. unique? yes. no1 wouldve expected tht, but it’s so...?? why cover ur face n everything else n then make it look so Odd i jus.. ew. no.

kendall on the other hand looks nice! draping jewels (esp diamonds or smth in tht whitish-grey sparkly color) n transparent fabrics r a classic tht’s used v often n the same applies here. looks nice! luv the way the jewels curve down.

ppl in the replies r calling olivia rodrigo’s outfit boring n while i can kinda agree, it doesnt look too terribly bad? i dig the outfit, esp the lace fishnet fabric. i think it’s p cute! but compared to all of these pretty gowns, yea it might b a bit underwhelming. not ugly tho!

ppl r rly ecstatic abt lorde’s outfit on the other hand, but i dont like it? the fabric reminds me of like, curved construction paper or tortillas n it jus feels p boring 2 me i dont like it at all :I

miss biles... it just is Not hitting. mayb if the puffy gray fabric didnt suddenly widen at the hips it’d still b a bit more acceptable, albeit still not great, but the texture on the grey, puffy, prob heavy fabric isnt great n is jus too like.. dense-looking i dont like it at all.

justin n hailey look boring. tht’s jus a normal black suit n black dress, bro. absolutely NOTHING special. i do like hailey’s dress, esp the neckline, but dear god theyre both jus so bland? no accessories? no nothing? tht’s jus a straight narrow black dress, hailey. tht’s jus a regular suit, justin. this is the Red Carpet.

gigi... nice hair n gloves n accessories (tho the necklace doesnt rly seem 2 match? it seems a bit golder) but the dress?? ugly. Ugly. i dont care if ppl r praising her in the twt replies. the stiff fabric of the bland, boring outer dress makes it all the fucking worse. like a cardboard roll only more flexible bc Fabric.

i like the red, white, n blue draping fabric on saweetie’s outfit, also it ties in w the ameria theme, but the rest of the outfit (or, as much as i can see bc her front is kinda obscured in the photo) jus.. isnt pretty.

i rly rly luv the dress on naomi, my word! the colors swirl rly nicely together, but i think the black part of the dress would b nicer if as a lower arm coat or smth instead of attached 2 the dress like how i think it is. also dont like her hairstyle, but i think it’s referencing smth cultural n has meaning tht i jus dont understand so! cant say much abt tht. the main dress part tho is rly nice.

chalamet is good until the converse gjhsdn why did he think.. tht converse (or shoes resembling them, as some1 in the replies said they might not actually b converse) would b red carpet appropriate. also the crotch of the pants shouldve been a bit higher imo cuz it looks like its a bit lower, like harem pants but not baggy or quite as low.

i luv the blue glitter gown on miss gorman! wow how glittery! n tht’s not sarcasm btw i genuinely luv glitter gjhsnd but it fits the america theme n is such a bright eye-popping color.

#under the cut bc this got way too long!#delete later #i think my fav look was lupita. i rly like the way they styled her hair n the dress was pretty. megan was prob 2nd fav.

The Mask

This is the piece I made for the @blackguardfanzine, a Villains!AU Fanzine! You can download the zine for free here!

I had a lot of fun writing this so consider checking the zine out! 🖤

(I know I’m super late at uploading this, I’m very sorry)

The Mask, a Boku no Hero Academia/My Hero Academia One Shot.

Summary: Neito Monoma was an aspiring hero, well-known by his classmates and other students in the same year as him. With a bright future in front of him, he was ready to graduate high school and begin his career as a pro-hero.

Unfortunately, one day, on a school outing, a bunch of villains attacked the young students of UA. Their objective had seemed to be another, but brave Monoma stepped in front of his peers to protect them, which resulted in him losing his life at the hands of those horrible people. His classmates saw him die, watched as his body went limp and stared in horror as they took his corpse and disposed of it.

Characters: Monoma Neito, Shinsou Hitoshi, Bakugou Katsuki.

Rating: Mature

Read on AO3

Or read below the cut

Neito Monoma was an aspiring hero, well-known by his classmates and other students in the same year as him. With a bright future in front of him, he was ready to graduate high school and begin his career as a pro-hero.

Except he didn’t die.

I didn’t die.

As a teenager, I’d been witness to the horrifying injustice in the hero world. Even at the beginning of our first year of high school we had been separated into different classes and treated differently depending on how “good” we were. It made my blood boil to think that there were power-hungry, money-making fools out there that didn’t care about saving lives as long as they were getting rich of off making a show out of us. Being a hero became meaningless to me. And it didn’t help that the actual heroes doing their job probably did it just to get a higher ranking instead of aiming to actually save lives as they should be.

I started a one-man quest against heroes and their stupid hierarchy and named myself their number one enemy, and the villains offered me a position in their ranks when I presented my case to them. They agreed to help me fake my death and took me in. Years later, I’m still here, and while I don’t agree with all of their ideals and I normally go solo, I’d say I do fit in rather well.

All my former schoolmates are now pro-heroes, battling each other for a better position on the horrible hero rankings. I don’t pity or envy them. But I do want to help them if I can.

Inside the villain world, I’m The Mask, the self-proclaimed villain in charge of bringing justice to this rotten hero obsessed world.

I hang all the newspaper clippings I gather from the heroes I've framed. They're all over the walls of my crummy apartment, so I'm constantly reminded of my own personal victory. It feels great to see my sweet success pinned as decor.

Nothing fills me with more pride than drinking my early morning coffee as I reread over the headlines I have already memorised and reminisce about when I locked up a hero because they deserve to be in jail.

I've singlehandedly managed to be behind the incarceration of both old and new heroes. But, honestly, I'm most proud of the downfall of someone I hadn't even tried to frame, yet somehow did with how the events rolled out. Someone I got to know very well at UA.

Shinsou.

His picture stares at me over the frame of my bed. He still has those horrible bags and unruly hairstyle. The picture isn't flattering by any means since it was obviously taken at an unfortunate moment for the hero, when he was either unaware or distracted as he was taken into custody for interrogation. He's looking away, his eyes dull, his expression slightly irritated. Probably. I always found him hard to read. But I couldn't have a better photo over my bed since this one proves to me what I now believe in.

Shinsou was investigated due to his infamous mind-controlling quirk and he is now the prime suspect in the case of the framed heroes. Of course, even the police aren't as stupid as to not realise that something is going on. It's all in the article that I’ve toasted to so many times already. It’s my greatest achievement, and it wasn’t even a part of my plan. I make sure to congratulate myself regularly for my genius.

Too bad they eventually let him go. I know they’re still watching him, and there are tons and tons of theories on the internet about who’s behind these strange villain-turned heroes. Some people think there is an actual villain behind all this, and other’s think he’s made up, that it’s just a theory the police have to make sure the civilians stay calm.

As to why I decided to call myself The Mask, it’s because of the pretty little white mask I created not that long ago. It’s simple, with hollow eyes for me to look through and a mouth frowning downwards.

I’ve been waiting for a moment to get my villain persona to make an appearance, and this is probably the best moment possible. I want to announce myself in the best way possible, and what better way than in the middle of a hero’s speech?

Yes, Ground Zero is doing the honours of being my opening act, and he doesn’t even know it yet. His scowling face has been plastered all over the internet for weeks, announcing his first public act in over a year. It’s probably a promotion, a thing he’s being forced to do by his manager so that he gains followers and attracts more attention. He’s always been the hostile type, so it’s probably nothing more than a publicity stunt, but that’s good enough for me!

And today’s the day! It’s a great opportunity for me to show what The Mask can do! I can already imagine the headlines! “Strange masked villain humiliates Ground Zero”.

I wear purple colour contacts and a dust mask to hide my features. I also wear a hood so my blond hair can't be seen - although in this day and age with all the quirks and mutations around I'm not that scared of a little pale hair showing - and I'm ready. I’m pretty confident I’m hiding my face well. Although I’m pretty sure not even my old schoolmates will remember me. The success has gone to their heads, they’ve let the slight fame they have to get to them. They think they’re so much better than the random citizens they claim to be saving on the daily. Another reason I hate them so.

My long coat seals the deal. It's pretty similar to the one I wore back in high school, my hero suit. I modified a little, though. I changed the clocks for pockets. There are pockets everywhere, inside and out. In them are the samples of hair I've collected from heroes and villains with useful quirks over the years. I have their exact locations memorised for whenever I’m in a tight spot and I might need them. With my villain mask tucked neatly against my body, I head out the door and over to where Ground Zero’s about to give his speech.

I blend in with the crowd as well as I can, positioning myself so I have a good enough view of him, security and as many people attending as I can.

He’s a little over five minutes late, but he’s as unceremonious as ever as he starts his little speech. The blond hero snarls viciously about how heroes will prevail despite everything and other nonsensical bullshit. I'm trying my hardest to stop myself from laughing, but it's impossible. It’s just too funny.

Ground Zero is pathetic. In my opinion, he always has been. All he's really got going for himself is how boisterous he is. It's annoying. Most of the people here aren't even his fans, probably. They're just intimidated by his rudeness. It's sad. I know that hothead, bad-mouthed pro-hero thinks he's intimidating. He's got that air to him - and it's obviously the thing he's going for - but it doesn't work on me. He didn't intimidate me at the sports festival, and he doesn't intimidate me now.

But I do want to get back at him. I want to make him eat his words of all those years ago at the sports festival. I want him to regret having ever thought he was somehow superior to everyone else. I've wanted him to fall for so long now I can hardly wait.

And I know just how. His own cockiness will be his downfall, and nothing could be sweeter.

At some point during his boring talk, I sneak past people, repositioning myself. I discard my dust mask and replace it with my full-faced white one.

He's finally finished with his speech and is about to leave when I stuff my hand into the pocket with the hairs I'd carefully decided would be best for this situation. Activating my quirk I feel a surge of power travel up my hands and arms until my whole body is tingling with the sensation.

The thrill of the moment helps and I surge forward, pushing people out of my way until Ground Zero notices the commotion and turns his attention to me.

I see explosions form in his palms as he launches himself and lands on top of me. He's heavy, probably because his kit seems quite bulky and excessive. He laughs maniacally because he thinks he has me pinned to the floor and unable to move, but that's when I click my fingers in front of his face and his snickers quickly quieten. His expression turns from cocky to terrified in a matter of seconds, and I calmly pin him down.

He's struggling to breathe, clawing at his throat furiously, panic in his eyes as he glares at me with a look of intense hate. I laugh once but push myself off him, running away and snapping my fingers again at anyone who tries to stop me.

I deactivate the quirk before I turn the corner and I immediately hear explosions behind me. I watch as he propels his way forward and lands right in front of me, grinning slyly. Ground Zero’s close-up face is exactly how I remember it: Snide, smug and full of vile. His eyes look disturbed, and he's licking his lips like a madman. Life has given him many more scars that make his expressions far scarier than they should be. It would fill me with fear, but I'm too high on adrenaline to even care at this point.

“I'm not scared of your little breath-play trick.” He snarls.

My smile spreads on my face, behind my mask. I tilt my head as I select the next quirk I’m going to use. It’s an alchemy one I borrowed from a villain friend of mine. I put my hands on his grenades and melt the bloody artefacts before he can launch his explosions. It surprises him so much that he takes a step back and the immediate threat of being blown to pieces disappears as his explosions dissipate.

"What the-!" But I cut him off by pushing him back, turning his body and pressing him against a wall.

I can’t risk it by using too many quirks or he'd understand what my ability is, so I use the first quirk on him again, cutting off his respiration.

I love watching him suffer. My heart beats erratically fast as I feel the hate emanating off of him. Yes, I live off that.

I pull his hair and force him to his knees as he's still struggling to get oxygen into his lungs. I jerk him around a bit, just to make sure I get at least one of his hairs, which I discreetly put into one of my empty pockets.

Satisfied with his torment, I pull back and walk away, only to turn a few seconds later and find him trying to crawl his way to me. Endearing. I wave at him before running down the street.

Despite the commotion and how important today is, loads of people are still walking around, unaware of what has just happened. I make my way through them, hoping they notice my mask but don't think too much into it.

As I expected, the bang of a loud explosion can be heard behind me. Ground Zero's drive and motivation to catch the enemy are as strong as ever. I'm not that happy that he's so persistent and still chasing me. I've got other heroes to antagonise! But the smell of smoke makes me turn my head to see just what this berserk man is doing nonetheless.

"I'LL KILL YOU!" I hear him scream before another huge explosion goes off. Turning to my left I notice the smoke coming from a building. Has he resorted to blowing up public property to gain my attention? Charming. Maybe I like Ground Zero more than I thought. I do love his taste for destruction, though, I’ll give him that at least.

Running into a small alley to catch my breath, I put my hand inside a new pocket. An icky sensation sprouts from my fingertips as I activate this quirk and when I look at them, I find them covered in pink suckers. I can probably develop them on my feet too, but I'm not risking taking my shoes off, so I'll have to do with just my hands.

Climbing the wall with this quirk is easier than I imagined. It makes an annoying sucking sound as they activate and deactivate, but I get on the roof faster than I would’ve with any of my other quirks. I know Ground Zero can sort of fly, but at least I have a bit of an advantage for the time being.

I wish I could use his power since wow, it's super useful and dynamic, but I don't want to risk it. I know the blond hero isn't stupid. I mean, he isn't the smartest person I've ever met – blowing up buildings seems either a sign of his reckless stupidity or how desperate he is – but if I learnt something from our time together at UA, he can sometimes be quick and sharp, if he doesn’t let his rash feelings get in the way. And right now, I'd rather not mess with that. Anyway, he’s just a decoy for the real thing, or we could say he’s the opening act. The show’s about to start!

He must have spotted me because he whizzes his way towards the rooftop where I’m waiting for him, fire and loud bangs erupting from his hands and what’s left of his melted grenades. There’s a siren wailing in the background that I think was set off by his little temper tantrum. Good. He’s done his part.

As much as I enjoyed fighting this admirable opponent, I’ve got better things to do, so I’m determined to finish this fast.

Bakugou’s learnt his lesson, at least. He stays away from me, and he’s wary this time, his brows furrowed. He’s panting heavily, but I can see the light emanating from his palms, the tell-tale sign that he’s about to make an explosion come to life.

I wish I was a little bit quicker or more agile since the tail of my coat gets singed by his explosive blast when I dodged it, but at least it didn’t hit me and I’m not harmed. I select a new quirk that I know acts fast and it doesn’t take long before he’s asleep on the concrete floor, snoring softly. I give a kick to his inert body before walking off, laughing to myself.

I look back at the fire slowly creeping out of the litany of demolished buildings Ground Zero left in his wake as he chased after me. It's probably safe to assume someone else will follow the devastation and eventually reach me, unless I deceive them first, so I decide to jump from building top to building top. It's exhilarating in a way, as I stumble my way forwards, scared of falling. Heights were never my strong suit. But it feels good to defy even my fears as I walk across one roof to another, smiling to myself as I get further away from the smoky chaos I'm leaving behind.

I notice a figure with their back to the wall and the smirk reappears on my face. The person has purple hair, and a look I could recognise anywhere. Today’s my lucky day it seems, as I activate the sucker quirk again and make my way down. As soon as my feet touch the ground, I'm met face to face with a very familiar one.

I’ve been waiting for this day for some time now, and now that it’s finally here… I actually can’t believe it. He doesn't recognize me under the mask, but his expression shifts, his eyes lighting up in interest.

"You're probably the one that caused all this commotion, right?" He says, his tone dull, as if he were bored, but there's a certain something in his voice that's new. He's sure of himself.

Well, it'll make all this a lot more fun.

I don't answer him of course, because this is Hitoshi Shinsou we’re talking about, bearer of a very powerful mind control quirk. Answering him would mean dooming not only myself but all the villains I know and every one of my ideals.

I decide to toy around with him, play a game that has been on my mind for ages now. I walk towards him, tilting my masked face to the left just slightly. It's to intimidate him, although he'll probably not fall for that. I've always thought he was a tough nut to crack, and that's part of the beauty of this.

We dance around each other as he tries to mimic my motions until I throw a punch. He dodges it and aims his knee towards my stomach, but boy am I glad my reflexes are still good. With one hand on his face and pushing him back – mainly to distract and annoy him – the other fumbles inside one of my pockets, to acquire the quirk I want. Before Shinsou manages to pull away from my grasp, I feel power surge through my veins and explosions light up in my palms.

I don’t aim for his face because I’ve always kind of thought he was beautiful, in a weird non-crush sort of way. Maybe I was jealous, maybe I wasn’t, it’s not the time to ponder about high school drama. Plus, I need to make sure he’s recognisable later on. I blast the loud explosion with calculated carefulness. His shoulder should’ve received the brunt of the blow, but I underestimated how quick he is too. He dodges the explosion, but it leaves a big crater in the wall behind him, debris raining over us and smoke clouding our vision. As I sneak in a quick peek, I notice I destroyed the back of the lovely café that I went to the other day. It’s a shame, I did really like that place.

He tackles me to the ground and we wrestle. I'm not really a fan of hand to hand combat so my objective is to get him off me as soon as possible, but only when I have what I need. My hands run over his hair and I acquire his power, feeling it well up intensely inside of me.

He struggles to take my mask off, but I don't let him. A swift kick in his tender spot makes him recoil and I can finally pull myself from under him. I get up and watch as he struggles to do the same, moving agonizingly slowly.

I walk back a few steps and take my time removing my mask, savouring the moment. My smirk is ever-present as I watch his expression shift. He’s still in pain from my kick but he’s still trying to fight me. Admirable. I should give these persistent heroes that.

Shinsou's mouth opens wide as he realises who stands in front of him. His arms fall limp to his side as he stammers a hushed “But… you died”.

He stumbles back as realisation kicks in and panic appears on his features. “You were the one that caused all that! You're behind everything. Your quirk-!”

But it's too late for him because I activate my quirk, and then his. I watch as his eyes change to look like the ones he’s so used to seeing himself. Having him under my command ignites a warm feeling inside of me, something akin to triumphant pride as I smile smugly at him.

“Hitoshi Shinsou.” I whisper in a sickly-sweet tone. I take my time with each syllable, savouring the moment. I’ve got complete control over him and It’s empowering. “Now that’s a name I haven’t said in a long time. But as much as I like reunions, I like things going my way more. So, listen closely. You are going to turn yourself in. You'll tell the police you are behind every one of those heroes that were arrested.”

For a second Shinsou doesn't move. It's as if he's trying to control his own quirk. But we both know he's not strong enough to do that.

"Now," I growl, my lip curling.

His whole body twitches before he turns around and starts walking away. Just at the perfect time, too, since Ground Zero must have woken up: his screams and violent explosions can be heard in the distance.

I laugh hoarsely, imagining the warm welcome the other hero has planned for Shinsou.

I turn in the opposite direction myself, walking towards the other end of the small street, my mask still in my hand. It feels heavy there, and I suddenly realise that it's because I don't need it anymore. With a quick movement of my left wrist, I throw it away.

I laugh as I walk into a busier street, a light skip in my step, only to stop in front of a toddler. The kid looks at me with big brown curious eyes, and I stare back at him before leaning down and taking his lollipop. The young boy just watches me dumbfounded as I put the sweet into my mouth, enjoying the soft "plop" it makes around my puckered lips.

It seems like a scene in a movie as I walk away from the small child, who’s stunned into silence as he watches me run off with his lollipop.
