[ breakfast bunch ]

office crush to lovers. wotakoi inspired. wc: 2757

the city was bustling with busy as per a usual weekday. heels clacked and leather shoes hurried on the sidewalks, navigating their way to work. that wasn’t the case for you. today was a day off work because of some event in another department that did not concern yours and sunwoo’s, allowing a day of rest.

it was past 9 am and you have just woken up feeling quite a bit mislaid, not knowing what to do. usually around this time you’d be in front of your computer, typing away your work reports while taking bites out of the breakfast sandwich sunwoo always got you.

not having the energy to figure out what to spend today for, you mindlessly scrolled through tiktok curled up in your bed until a message dinged your phone.

nunu: morning

nunu: u up?

two messages sent after the other popped into your screen and you immediately clicked on it, not quite eager, but excited to know whatever sunwoo has planned for the day just so you could join in. hence, you responded and exchanged messages after so.

y/n: yea why

nunu: bfast?

y/n: let usssss

y/n: but where?

nunu: hb that sandwich place where i buy our usual?

y/n: oooh bet i’ve always wanted to try dining there

nunu: aightt, you know my place just message me when ure near so i can wait by the bus stop

y/n: got it 🤝

y/n: i’ll get ready now bye bye

nunu: you be careful, see u !!

acknowledging his last message with a heart reaction, you locked and threw your phone to the bed as you stood up to get ready, your face planted with an unconscious smile. you didn’t really know if you were happy with the idea that you won’t be couch potatoing for the day, or because you get to see sunwoo.

he’s part of your everyday now, not only on work days but even on weekends where you usually meet out to eat and hang, having been alone in each of your apartments. the friendly company of each other brought you both comfort. at work you got to play adults, but outside work you both get to act like teenagers with your endless playful bickering, midnight ice cream runs, and tv marathons whether it's an anime or movies or series. you loved being with sunwoo.

not further delaying your movements, you hopped into the shower preparing for whatever is to come today.

sunwoo, on the other hand, was all dressed already. he opted to message you after he's ready to go out just to avoid the possibility of you arriving in the meeting place earlier than him, not that it was a chance at all, but he wanted to make sure anyway just so he knows you wouldn't be waiting all alone. he meant to ask you to breakfast last night but argued within himself, not wanting to appear too clingy. sunwoo has always been careful about how you might see him. he wanted to be around you, but not always, not too pushy to scare you away. he didn't want to be too obvious, especially not when he's had some feelings he himself is yet to confront.

he saw you as a colleague at first, he respected you as a workmate. sunwoo saw your brilliance and wit, and he found you admirable. he didn't even notice when he started to feel.. things, he thought for sometime he just saw the good things in you, not realizing it's past mere compliments about you that he kept himself. the man was falling, oh he fell quicker than he could keep track of his feelings.

but he would never admit them. not even to himself, perhaps to sunwoo, acknowleding the heart is followed by rejection. and he enjoyed being with you too much to waste the bond, so he settles with your friendship. not that he was complaining, if anything, he was grateful to even be close to you, and much happier that you two were the closest among your workmates. sunwoo was contented but he'd be lying if he says he wouldn't want anything more.

the walk down the bus stop didn't take long enough for the thoughts that preoccupied his head. anyway, sunwoo already got to the meeting place just before you messaged to tell him you were around 5 minutes away.

basking in the morning air, sunwoo was glad the traffic had died down, allowing him to enjoy watching the vehicles that drove by. each one of them dropping and picking up new passengers, until it was you coming out of the bus.

sunwoo stood up with a small smile as soon as he saw you and you shoot him a smile back as you observed his clothing, he was dressed in a hoodie and jeans, just as you expected.

"do you even wash that hoodie? didn't you wear that last week?" you asked teasingly as soon as you were in front of him. the small smile on his face that welcomed you fell into a playful annoyed face, “at least i wash my hair everyday.”

he likes teasing like this, “hey, you’re not supposed to wash your hair everyday because it’s going to keep the natural oil and stuff,” you huffed as you followed him walking. “so you’re supposed to stink?” he joked even more.

“no i do not stink!” you said loudly laughing in between. “you have got to stop believing everything you see on tiktok,” sunwoo exclaimed laughing along with you.

the teasing and the tiktok banter kept going until you were a crossroad away from the small sandwich shop marked with a logo familiar to you.

as soon as you entered the sandwich shop, you heard the old lady stood behind the counter chirp a greeting to the man who held the door before you, “oh sunwoo, good morning!”

sunwoo kept his hand on the door as you took your steps but his eyes immediately went to the old lady, greeting back to her with another “good morning” paired with a gentle smile.

she had went back to cutting the ingredients as you walked towards the counter with sunwoo, checking on the menu. you observed the store and it felt like a subway but homey, maybe because of the seats and tables that are not too fancy but neat and pretty in color. seeing the freshly cut vegetables reminded you of your hunger and the smell of the sizzling meat didn’t help either. you continued scanning the menu when a conversation between the two started.

“are you getting your usual?” asked the lady as she looked at sunwoo. “yes but i’ll be dining here this time, you don’t need to rush preparing it,” sunwoo answered in a chuckle. apparently, sunwoo’s habit was no different to yours, always rushing in the morning.

the lady took note of sunwoo’s additional coffee order before turning her head towards you, “how about your order, dear?” she was sweet. you felt no pressure choosing a sandwich for breakfast but you didn’t feel adventurous today so you went with the order sunwoo always brought you.

“i’ll just have the regular sandwich with mayo, onions, and cheese, but without the pickles and tomato please,” you answered politely as you pulled your wallet out of your bag to prepare payment. just before you looked back up at the lady, you added, “i’ll also have the same coffee sunwoo’s having.”

this time you looked at her and she had this quizzed look on her face, as if solving a math equation stamped on your face. you only looked at her with both your eyebrows raised, mirroring the same look of confusion as you wait for a response.

“oh it’s her!” she exclaimed with her face lit up. you couldn’t understand what she meant but sunwoo seemed to get it when his eyes squinted then grew bigger as soon as the thought registered. “you’re sunwoo’s girlfriend aren’t you!? the one he always buys this breakfast sandwich for!” the lady said excitedly, wrinkling the corners of her eyes.

sunwoo looked as speechless as you did, perhaps you were as red as each other too.

the lady smiled so big you didn’t have it in you to burst her bubble, so you just pulled your lips in a warm smile as you bobbed your head slightly. “he always did get me my breakfast sandwich,” you responded as an agreement to the sandwich part, glossing over the girlfriend bit.

“what a sweetheart you have here, kindness in love goes a long way!” she said with the same level of excitement as she turned to sunwoo and talking once more, “and you have got a girl so pretty! how did a clumsy sunwoo score such a lady!?”

sunwoo only laughed in embarrassment as he scratched the back of his head. the mood was lighter and you laughed with him too. he didn’t look at you but he played along ignoring the statement that made him blush, instead clearing his throat before speaking to you, “you can take a sit now i’ll take care of it.”

not wanting to protest, you only nodded your head and smiled once more at the lady before pulling yourself out of the counter. you chose a table just next to the window and settled your bag on it, with sunwoo following not so long after.

he slipped into the chair opposite to yours quietly but spoke eventually, “i’m sorry about that,” he chuckled awkwardly. “i knew her since i moved here for work and she suspected the extra sandwich i was buying with my usual order was for a girl,” sunwoo laughed at the memory.

rushing through the streets, sunwoo held his leather bag in his left hand before he got to the front of the sandwich shop near the corner of his apartment, pushing the door with his right hand. the old lady recognized him, he’s been a regular since around three months ago— right when he moved to the area.

just as sunwoo approached the counter, the lady beat her to it and asked, “your usual in 5 minutes?”

he laughed lightly answering, “yes, please. but with the regular sandwich too minus the pickles and tomato.” he says as he pulls some cash out of his wallet. this was when the lady noticed it, of the three months sunwoo’s been a regular, the last three weeks of his order included an extra sandwich on some days.

she couldn’t stop her tongue when she asked, “so your girlfriend doesn’t like pickles and tomatoes?” sunwoo was quite shocked, but he liked what he heard.

you were both new to the company but you came a bit later, resulting in the two of you working on some stuff together and sticking together during lunch breaks, having not much friends from the older employees. sunwoo found you so easy to be with. and quite frankly, you could say the same. you talked about a lot of things, especially anime. but besides your similar interests, sunwoo also learned about the absence of breakfast in your daily routine having such a shit sleep schedule that you wake up late and miss the time to prepare or buy anything to eat most days, if not every single day.

so one morning when he was getting his sandwich, he decides to buy two to give you the other one. he ‘accidentally’ ordered two so you got to eat it now because one was enough for him and it would’ve gotten stale if he keeps it for lunch. you do anyway, but you fish out the pickles and tomatoes before doing so. sunwoo mentally took note of the abandoned bits of vegetables and ordered one without them the following day.

you didn’t really think much of it then, just glad sunwoo was generous enough to share his food with you. sunwoo, on the other hand, was relieved. he wouldn’t really know how to explain if you ask him why he gets you breakfast.

claiming the paperbag containing the sandwiches, sunwoo thanked the old lady for always getting them done in 5 minutes. “oh don’t worry there’s not much customers anyway. you go now, you lovebirds have a nice day,” she grinned warmly.

it has become his routine since then, the lady’s too, that he had completely forgotten about the assumption she made months ago.

you intently watched sunwoo as he spoke of the memory so fondly. “i would’ve warned you about it but it slipped my mind, i didn’t really explain anything to her and just let her think of it like that, i’m so sorry,” he finished.

“no, no problem at all, it’s fine!” you answered wavering your hand in quite a panic, not wanting to make sunwoo feel bad.

you really didn’t want to sadden that lady with the information that you two, in fact, were not dating. but admittedly, being called that made your heart flutter. oh, who were you kidding? anything sunwoo did— anything related to sunwoo, made your heart flutter.

the lady was right, he was such a sweetheart. always so mindful when he was teaching you about the work stuff he learned about some months earlier than you, accompanying you to non-work events (who knew sunwoo would join you to a sticker convention), sending you tiktok edits of your favorite movies, looking after sickly you in your apartment, making sure he's got an extra hair tie in case you lose yours— the list could go on but it’s that sandwich that you look forward to most days.

upon having this surge of realization, you felt your cheeks heat up as you spoke shyly, “i mean, it wouldn’t be so bad, would it?”

sunwoo only looked at you surprisingly with his eyes looking even bigger than they already do, but he also looked confused as his brows raised and furrowed quickly as if he was figuring a puzzle out. his head jumbled with words to form whatever question was meant to be asked in a situation as such, which he had never been in. did you mean what you said? did it mean you felt the same way he did?

his brain was racked with so much thoughts that before he got to ask what you meant, the old lady had already dinged the bell, calling for sunwoo’s name instead of his order number. blinking away the moment, "hold on," sunwoo said as he quickly stood from his seat quite wobbly before approaching the counter.

you would’ve laughed at his clumsiness but you had to mentally scold yourself first, what did you just say? were you even ready for this? well, you’ll never be ready to face something this big anyway, not something as big as your feelings that caught you in those moments with sunwoo you wished would last a bit— a lot, longer. they crept up the very first time sunwoo bursted out laughing at a joke you made, it was this warmth that spread across your chest that made you realize that besides seeing him happy, you also liked making him happy.

oh this isn’t good. what a waste of friendship would it be if sunwoo found your feelings ridiculous, you would much rather choke to death instead of being rejected and having your friendship ruined.

maybe you’re over reacting, but what’s a girl got to do when she accidentally confesses?

you were so into your own thoughts that you didn’t realize sunwoo was slowing his walking still trying to absrob what you said. did you mean, it wouldn’t be.. so bad.. being his? sunwoo has always been gentle with you when talking about things in a serious light, but he didn’t find this time a good time to be slow, maybe he should just go for it?

you felt like you held your breathe until sunwoo came back, carefully placing your coffee and sandwich in front of you and his meal on his side. sunwoo's sat in front of you again wiping the pair of fork and bread knife with a napkin before handing them to you. you only quietly said "thank you," as you reached for them when he spoke.

"so you liked that, huh?"

looking up with your mouth agape, you were horrified. sunwoo had a smirk and his eyes twinkled with something that tells you this day was going to be about more than a friendly breakfast date, this one was a hole you both have been digging.

Laid In Scales Intro!

So, @drabbleitout and I have a new AU with our characters in a completely new world, and I want to share it on Tumblr, so I made a powerpoint for it to introduce it! It's tons of fun throwing our characters into different shenanigans and scenarios! And there are dragons in this one! Tagging: @ratracechronicler, @maple-writes, @pen-of-roses, and @grailfish!

Here are links to the different stories that are mentioned in the powerpoint: All's Fair, TB, Bring Me That Horizon, TLL, Fate Story, Eclipse Story, Trio Story, Concealed Darkness, and Cyberpunk

Ok, let's get started:

[Image Description: a title page reading: Laid In Scales

AKA: An AU with @drabbleitout with our characters from different stories all mashed together into one AU, now with dragons! End Description]

[Image Description: a page titled: Overview

Firstly, this is a fun AU I just want to share with Tumblr, it’s more for aesthetic than for accuracy, lol

Four different countries, and they have been at war for decades, maybe centuries

Each country has a champion, known as a dragon rider, who gets a dragon from one of the deities

These dragon riders get slit pupils, dragon tails, scales on their skin, fangs, and horns, and they can get elemental powers and weapons from their dragon when the dragon is in the “travel sized for your convenience” form (aka: a pendant)

Because these champions are one-person armies on their own, the countries won’t dare to invade a country that has a living dragon rider, so the majority of this war has been trying to assassinate dragon riders and invade in the in between, so there haven’t been tons of casualties, at least

At this moment, the lightning dragon rider is Ives, the fire dragon rider is Chess, the water dragon rider is Triel, and the ice dragon rider is Rune

There have been lots of changes recently with the fire dragon rider, but I will talk about that later

The deities are immortal dragons that are the living embodiments of the elements they represent, and if they die, the element they represent goes away, so you can imagine how bad that would be if they did die (hint, hint)

Luckily, it is very hard to kill the deities But some dumbass is still wanting to try it. End Description]

[Image Description: a page titled: So... The Dragon Riders

I will start with Chess, because it’s the most complicated

So, the fire dragon rider was assassinated about a year ago, and Chess’s lover, Naivi, was set to take the title next

But then, before she could, Naivi was assassinated as well

Chess had been studying a little bit, mostly because Naivi was studying, since Chess had been working towards becoming an elite guard for the dragon rider, so the leader of her country, Vyxis, elevated her to be a dragon rider, and the fire deity accepted her

She is woefully unprepared, but she is trying her hardest

Everyone (besides Vyxis and Ishnir) is judging her and saying she’s not worthy of this, and that she is a terrible dragon rider

And she believes them and is working herself too hard

Ives is the lightning dragon rider, and he is the one who has been a dragon rider for the longest

He’s the most aloof one, being prideful in his title and rude to others

Triel is the water dragon rider, and she seems to know too much about everything

She seems to always be at the dragon rider sanctuary (where all the dragon riders can go to be safe from fighting)

Rune is the ice dragon rider, which is ironic because she’s the warmest of the group

Probably team mom, making sure everyone has snacks and is sleeping enough. End Description]

[Image Description: a page titled: The Countries

Arcadia is led by Vyxis, and it is home to the fire dragon rider; Vyxis’s father had just been killed by the citizens a year ago because of discontent, and Vyxis took over and made things better and is now trying to pursue peace in this war, especially Etaran, who has a good leader too

Etaran is led by Acee, and it is home to the lightning dragon rider; Acee’s husband was not a good person, but since he died, she has taken over and has also made it better, especially giving women in marriage more power, since she had an arranged marriage and got hurt by it, she is also pursuing peace

Silisia is led by Firgo (his last name), and it is home to the water dragon rider; Firgo truly wants to continue the war and bloodshed, and he also is too interested in the dragon riders and using them as weapons

Ilica is led by Lexikon, and it is home to the ice dragon rider; Lexikon is pragmatic and has kept within the walls of his country to protect from assassins and threats, the country has become self sufficient. End Description]

[Image Description: a page titled: Characters

Ok, now there are gonna be a lot of characters

So, I’m gonna sort them by the canon stories they’re in

So, a slide per story

I love all of them. End Description]

[Image Description: a page titled: All's Fair (my story)

Chess was just a regular human, and she and Naivi were childhood friends and now lovers; because Naivi was studying to become the dragon rider, Chess was working to become part of the elite guard for the dragon rider; when she was young, she was in an accident that caused her to lose her right arm and leg, and she worked hard to train and become one of the best shots in Arcadia; as she was going through the test to become an elite guard, Naivi was assassinated along with the whole elite guard, and when the news came, Chess was promoted to becoming the next dragon rider; she is facing scrutiny from all sides, and she is cracking under the pressure, not taking care of herself and working herself too hard; she never feels like she is enough; Artel is the name of her dragon

Naivi was the next in line to be the fire dragon rider, and she was Chess’s lover; she encouraged Chess through everything, and told her she was strong and good enough; and Chess helped her with studying and not getting too wrapped up in the books; they were the cutest, most saccharine couple ever. End Description]

[Image Description: a page titled: Time Borrowed (@drabbleitout's story)

Ives is the lightning dragon rider, and he has been a dragon rider the longest; he is cold and proud and seems to only spend time with his dragon, Xoko; he seems to be getting less and less social, more willing to fight as time goes on; he especially sees Chess as a mistake of a dragon rider

Beau is the one set to take care of Xoko; he is a sweetheart and loves Xoko

Garnet and Hadrian are part of the elite guard for Ives; even though he fights well enough to not seem to need any guards, they stick around and make him begrudgingly socialize with them

Acee is the leader of Etaran who is seeking peace; she cares for Ives like he is her son, and she is concerned by how he’s been changing. End Description]

[Image Description: a page titled: Bring Me That Horizon (my story)

Triel is the water dragon rider, and she is crafty and a planner; she has actually come up with a plan to unite the dragon riders and stop them from killing each other, and the others have agreed to it; before that, she was captured by the leader of her country and tortured as he tried to break her so she would become his weapon; she refused, and her lover, Nesri, and her friend, Shine, helped rescue her; she now mostly stays at the sanctuary, but she hasn’t told the other dragon riders what happened to her because she doesn’t want them to worry

Nesri is Triel’s lover, and she technically joined the elite guard to protect Triel, but she has defected after what happened; she’s bubbly and loves to fight, mostly hand-to-hand; she wants to fight Firgo for what he did to Triel

Shine was also part of the elite guard, and a good friend to Triel; they’re deaf and a great engineer; they are the enabler of all of Triel’s plans, making machines to help her pull off even the wildest plans. End Description]

[Image Description: a page titled: The Last Line (@drabbleitout's story)

Rune is the water dragon rider; her country is very closed off from the others, but she sneaks out to go to the sanctuary to meet with the others; she is the sensible one of the dragon riders, making sure Ives and Triel take care of themselves when she can; she loves all the friends she’s made

Lexikon is the leader of Ilica; in order to protect his country, he has closed it off to the others no matter what; he is pragmatic and makes decisions for the good of his country, even if he has to do questionable things to achieve that

Becker and Fuchs are part of Rune’s elite guard; they’re childhood friends, and they became friends with Rune quickly; they care deeply for her and get worried about her easily

Makita cares for Rune’s dragon (name pending), and he’s happy to do so; he might have a secret second job, but don’t worry about it, he’s there to care for the dragon with a smile

Niles is a guard for Lexikon, and he definitely is also an assassin; he’s silently or not so silently judging you about everything you do. End Description]

[Image Description: a page titled: The Fate Story (my story)

Vyxis is the leader of Arcadia; he is a trans man who is cold and calculating and only cares about three people: his mother, his sister, and Ishnir, his wife (he might also care about Chess, but he won’t admit it any time soon); he thinks the war is sketchy, since he doesn’t even know how it started, so he’s determined to get to the bottom of it, and while he’s at it, he also wants to start peace talks, but Etaran is the only country who seems willing to talk

Ishnir is Vyxis’s wife and right hand person; she is quiet and blunt when she has to talk, and she makes sure all the small, everyday things are running smoothly; she doesn’t show much emotion unless she’s alone with Vyxis. End Description]

[Image Description: a page titled: Eclipse Story (my story)

Firgo is the leader of Silisia; he is a power-hungry man who wants to use anyone with powers as a weapon; to that end, he tortured Triel to get her to agree to be his weapon, and when she refused and escaped, he has labelled her a traitor and is trying to convince the country that his daughter’s spouse, Eclipse, should be the dragon rider instead; the country is split in debate, especially because Triel’s dragon is still alive, so they’re not even sure that the deity will give them a new dragon

Ash is Firgo’s daughter, and she recognizes his terrible motives, and she wants to kill her parents so she can rule and fix the damage he caused; she is manipulative and crafty, having been taught that everyone will try to use her, so she should use them first

Eclipse is Ash’s spouse, and they are having the worst time; they were captured after their parents tried to defect from the country and were killed for it; they were forced to marry Ash, and they just want to kill Firgo and his wife in revenge. End Description]

[Image Description: The Trio Story (my story)

Iggy is not an android in this one; he is Chess and Naivi’s childhood friend, and when he heard that Naivi was assassinated and Chess was elevated to be a dragon rider, he got to practicing so he can become a member of the elite guard so he can help protect Chess; he does succeed a little into the story, and he goes to Chess as soon as he can; he could fight Beau for the most sunshine boy, and I’m not sure who would win. End Description]

[Image Description: a page titled: Concealed Darkness (my story)

Aston is a walking spoiler; so I can’t say much about him, but let’s just say he’s very old, and he knows why the war was started; he seems to know a lot about the dragon riders, and he wants to force his views on everyone; he’s an asshole who thinks he knows better than anyone else; everyone should try to stay away from him. End Description]

[Image Description: a page titled: Cyberpunk Story (my story)

Vortex is also a walking spoiler; so, let’s just say he got a new pet, and he’s trying to figure out what to do now; Irina and Briar might show up, but he’s alone right now and just trying to do his best; I just wanted everyone to know he’s in this too, lol. End Description]

And that's it! Thanks for reading! I hope to post some writing of this soon!

[will80sbyers]

I think I know why some people are saying That 90s Show feels like Disney Channel acting is because all the new male cast members that play a main character are all best known for being on a Disney Channel or Nickelodeon TV Show in the past. Mace Coronel (Jay), Maxwell Acee Donovan (Nate) and Reyn Doi (Ozzie) have all worked for Disney Channel or Nickelodeon they are all used to working on a kids network that is why some people feel like this show has Disney Channel acting.

it could be the reason, but it doesn't make it a fact... I think they are all good actors and even the writing was not Disney Channel-like or I wouldn't have liked it at all, I watch a lot of stuff from VERY different networks and even watched Disney Channel shows and that's not what's happening in this show, we got a first season of introduction and it was actually a good first season 👏

[fireflykaizoku]

okay so, i talked about writing about what if my f/o's came to the real world, so lemme start with ace because i was thinking about this for the whole week... i may write more about this later

i think that first of all ace would feel so happy because he'd see how loved he is. i'd show him the blogs and all the nice stuff people talk about him, the cute fanart and the fanfics (he'd binge read some in the middle of the night, i'm sure. he'd even blush reading the smut)

i think i'd show him the marineford spoilers, so he can make thatch eat the fruit quick and avoid everything...

he would probably tell everyone about luffy, of course

would scare my grandma by accident because she's afraid of him because of my body pillow

10/10 would be friends with my nephews (i imagine them going all "LOOK IT'S ACEE")

would eat real life food as much as he could, he'd want to try EVERYTHING

i'd have to tell him not to use his powers in public because... in real life we don't have devil fruits

would take my phone to try to learn how it works

"that's a weird den den mushi"

then he'd learn how to use social media. would probably use my phone to take pictures, watch tiktoks or use instagram

he'd see all the pictures of him i have saved, would tease me about it

for some reason i'd want to get matching tattoos with him

Padres Considering Marcus Stroman

Padres Considering Marcus Stroman

Veteran starting pitching will be a focus of the Padres’ offseason, and the team appears prepared to shop in the high end of the free agent market.  Kevin Acee of The San Diego Union-Tribune writes that Marcus Stroman has been “mentioned” as part of the Padres’ “preliminary deliberations” about targets this winter. To be clear, it would be surprising if Stroman wasn’t at least on the radar for…

RACF Privilege Escalation

If you’ve been following this blog you’ve occasionally seen me post about the amazing scripts by @zospentest (@ayoul3__ on twitter). Around this time last year, literally out of nowhere Ayoub released ELV.APF. 

Before I get too far in to what the script does we need to talk about RACF, z/OS and data areas.

If you’re really curious about data areas you can read the following. What I did was combine them all in to one PDF for easy searching. But everything you need is right here:

GA32-0935-03    z/OS V2R2 MVS Data Areas Volume 1 (ABE - IAX) GA32-0936-03    z/OS V2R2 MVS Data Areas Volume 2 (IAX - ISG) GA32-0937-03    z/OS V2R2 MVS Data Areas Volume 3 (ITK - SCE) GA32-0938-03    z/OS V2R2 MVS Data Areas Volume 4 (SCF - XTL)

On top of these is the Security Server RACF Data Areas (ICHC400) which discusses the various areas in memory (aka storage) that RACF uses. 

The data area we’re most interested in is the ACEE aka the Access Control Environment Element. Rolls right off the tongue. 

Long story short, after a successful login a region of memory is dedicated to your ACEE. The ACEE is made up of many components and you can read all about them in the Page 3 here. The way it gets created is with a call to RACINIT. Go ahead and read the entirety of the ACEE data area. I’ll watch this GIF while I wait. 

If you actually did read it you’ll notice a very SPECIAL area thats worth digging in to: ACEEFLG1

Once you’ve logged in, RACF will make your ACEE and, in summary, copy your access rights to your ACEE. That way every access lookup is done in memory instead of a database lookup. But, if you look at ACEEFLG1 you’ll see that some global attributes (SPECIAL, AUDIT, OPERATIONS) are included in memory!

If you’ve read up on mainframe hacking, in relation to RACF, you’ll know that the ultimate goal is to get system SPECIAL. This attribute is the same as domain admin. Though it doesn’t give you access to anything itself, it allows you to give yourself access to anything you want. So, basically all we need to do is change the ACEEFLG1: ACEESPEC bit from a zero to a one. That’s it!

Now, you might be in a panic thinking ‘oh my god, you can just change your memory.’ Tell your stupid brain to shut the hell up. This region of memory is protected. i.e. only programs in supervisor state can make changes to this data area. I don’t really want to get in to supervisor state at this time there’s lots of documentation about it. The only important thing to know is that programs that are APF (authorized program facility) can get to supervisor state. If you’re an auditor you’ll recognize he term APF because it is #1 on every audit guide ever. And for good reason. Any APF library can change the ACEEFLG1 and set it to whatever we want. 

So the attack works like this:

1 - Identify all APF authorized libraries

2 - Check if we have write access to any of these libraries

3 - Insert our own code in one of those libabries

4 - Execute our code

Step one is relatively easy, what we need to do is find every APF authorized library on the system and see if we have write access to any of them. I’m using library here when really the term should be PDS (partitioned dataset), or for non mainframers ‘a folder’. Conveniently the listing of every APF library is also stored in memory and we can use some simple rexx to extract that information.

Step two is even easier. We just issue a RACF command to check our access rights: LISTDSD DATASET(’<filename>’) GENERIC where <filename> is the library we want to check access to. Take a look at these two screenshots:

Notice the difference? Under “Your Access” it tells you if the access is READ/ALTER/NONE. For the first file (USER.VTAMLIB) we have READ access. BUT for the second file we have ALTER access!

Step 3 now requires us to write some assembler and get it compiled with JCL. That is WAAAAAY more complicated. But thankfully you can use metasploit to generate the code we need (thanks to @bigendiansmalls​ amazing work!).

We can use Metasploits msfvenom to create the JCL/Assembler we need to do the privilege escalation:

msfvenom -p cmd/mainframe/apf_privesc_jcl APFLIB=SYS2.OLDLIB JOBNAME=INFOS10A FTPUSER=INFOS10

Taking a look closer the magic is right here:

The other important bit is here:

//L.SYSLMOD DD DISP=SHR,DSN=SYS2.OLDLIB(APFPRIV)

That DSN (aka file) should look familiar. It’s the library we have ALTER access to!

Now, the msfvenom output also takes care of step 4 for us by executing the code for us at the compile step (ASMACLG means Compile, Link and Go). How convenient. Once its run, the user running the JCL has SPECIAL. But only so long as that JCL is running. So there’s an extra step in the JCL to make it permanent:

Basically, ALU <USERNAME> SPECIAL alters the UserID (ALU) for the user INFOS10 and sets it to system SPECIAL. Since our ACEE has the SPECIAL flag set RACF obediently obeys and changes whatever userID you supplied to system special.

Wow, that was a pain in the ass huh? This is where Ayoub’s script ELV.APF comes in. Imagine you could do all of this in two steps?

To show how easy it is I’ve wipped up this little rexx script to only show the important bits from RACF:

So, with ELV.APF we really only need to do two things:

1) Call the script with the command ‘list’

2) Call the script again with a name of a PDS you have ALTER/WRITE access to

Here it is in action:

Firs I’ll run the rexx INFO script to show my current ATTRIBUTES:

Next we’ll call ELV.APF with the ‘list’ command. Followed by passing it the only APF authorized library we have access to. Finally I’ll run the INFO script again. Notice how my ATTRIBUTE has changed:

And thats it! There are MANY more methods for privilege escalation this is just one method. But hopefully now everyone will understand why protecting APF authorized libraries is so important. 

To those wondering how long this takes, I’ll leave with a parting GIF:

Ace appeared at first a little stern but treats helping, he loosened up, even sat down, sampled politely the dry liver bits and gave me a beautiful smile, not a brief one but one that stayed on his face for the duration of our time together. He was quite obedient, followed me as I asked, hopped on the bench and even sat again for treats. I felt deep inside quite comfortable with him. I guess, we could try a ball game tomorrow. Ace totally won me over, although I do not know him even a bit. He is a handsome big boy in need of TLC, may be just a proper diet, of course, all sprinkle with love. I learned later on that Ace came into the care center quite a wary dog but his actions today in the yard with his caretaker and myself told me that may be in experienced and loving hands, Ace could be a great four legged companion.

Behavior Condition: 3. Yellow Behavior History Behavior Assessment Dog allows petting and handling. How is this dog around strangers?: Dog is very friendly around strangers. How is this dog around other dogs?: The dog was a little startled when he was in the room with other dogs. How is this dog around cats?: The dog seemed a little nervous around the cats in the intake room. Energy level/descriptors:: Calm Date of intake:: 10/2/2018 Spay/Neuter status:: No Means of surrender (length of time in previous home):: Owner Surrender Behavior toward strangers:: Friendly Date of assessment:: 10/4/2018 Look:: 1. Dog's eyes are averted, ears are back, tail is down, relaxed body posture. Dog allows head to be held loosely in Assessor's cupped hands. Sensitivity:: 1. Dog stands still and accepts the touch, eyes are averted, and tail is in neutral position with a relaxed body posture. Dog's mouth is likely closed for at least a portion of the assessment item. Tag:: 5. Dog growls, snaps, or tries to bite. Toy:: 4. Dog freezes and/or growls. Summary:: When in the assessment room, Ace appeared extremely fearful, having a tense body and tucked tail. He very cautiously approached the assessor and slowly warmed up, getting to the point where he was soliciting attention by rubbing against the assessor. During tag, he quickly became over aroused, jumping up and snapping at the leash and then at the assessor. For this reason, the rest of the handling portion of the assessment was not completed. When the assess-a-hand touched the toy he was in possession of, he froze. Summary:: Ace may be most compatible with respectful female dogs. He has not yet been introduced to another male dog due to lack of appropriate greeter. Summary (1):: 10/3: When introduced off leash to the female greeter dog, Ace is fearful and does not approach. Summary (2):: 10/4: Ace greets calm female dogs politely. Summary (3):: 10/7: Ace engages in some brief play with a select female dog. Summary (4):: 10/9: Ace is polite when greeting a calm female dog. Date of intake:: 10/2/2018 Summary:: Allowed handling ENERGY LEVEL:: We have no history on Ace so we cannot be certain of his behavior in a home environment. At the care center, he displays a medium level of activity. BEHAVIOR DETERMINATION:: NEW HOPE ONLY Behavior Asilomar: TM - Treatable-Manageable Recommendations:: No children (under 13),Place with a New Hope partner Recommendations comments:: No children: Due to how uncomfortable Ace is currently with touch and novel stimuli, as well as the low threshold for arousal he has displayed at the care center, we feel that an adult-only home would be most beneficial at this time. Place with a New Hope partner: At this time, Ace is very uncomfortable with handling and jumps away when touched by new people. He has also displayed a low threshold for arousal. We recommend placement with a New Hope partner who can provide any necessary behavior modification (force-free, positive reinforcement-based) and re-evaluate behavior in a stable home environment before placement into a permanent home. Potential challenges: : Resource guarding,Fearful/potential for defensive aggression,Low threshold for arousal Potential challenges comments:: Fearful/potential for defensive aggression: Ace is very fearful at the care center and avoids handling from new people. He has growled at people who were taking him out. It is important to always go slow and give Ace the option to walk away from any social interaction. Ace should never be forced to approach anything that he is uncomfortable with or to submit to petting or handling. It should always be Ace’s choice to approach a new person or thing. Ace would do best in an initially calm and quiet home environment and should be given time to acclimate to his new surroundings. Resource guarding: When the assess-a-hand touched the toy Ace was in possession of during his assessment, he froze. We recommend that Ace be left alone while eating, and that food guarding behavior modification steps (available at ASPCApro.org) be utilized if this behavior is problematic in his future home. Nothing should ever be taken directly out of Ace's mouth, and any time something is removed he should be rewarded with a high value treat or toy. He should be taught the "drop" cue and trade-up games. Low threshold for arousal: Ace displayed a low threshold for arousal during his assessment. When playing tag, he began to grab the leash in his mouth and then snap towards the assessor. Immediate intervention and consultation with a qualified behaviorist/professional trainer is strongly recommended to aid in addressing this issue to prevent further behavioral concerns that may appear in the future if not treated right away. We recommend only force-free, reward based training when introducing or exposing Ace to new and unfamiliar situations. * TO FOSTER OR ADOPT * HOW TO RESERVE A “TO BE KILLED” DOG ONLINE (only for those who can get to the shelter IN PERSON to complete the adoption process, and only for the dogs on the list NOT marked New Hope Rescue Only).

[ stubborn love ]

exes to lovers. wc: 3217

the chatter that filled the restaurant remained to be the only noise keeping the two of you from being deafened by the silence. it’s been quite a few minutes since your conversation about your universities died down that you went back to cutting and chewing whatever was served on the plates in front of you.

it was awkward as hell.

you couldn’t even tell if he liked you, though you are already sure he's felt you’re not interested at all. it wasn’t even your idea to spend a friday night like this in the first place. it was kevin’s. he was nice enough to set you up on a date, because apparently 5 months is long enough to be sitting around and mopping about an ex.

well you did miss that ex. a lot. you’d really rather spend tonight rewatching ‘your name’ just so you could have an excuse of a sad movie to cry— when you know the true reason for your tears is the person who introduced that movie to you as his favorite.

you went on this date just so kevin could shut up about this dude who, according to him, was a great guy. admittedly, he was. he happened to be impressive too. despite the short conversation you managed to engage in, you found out about how he wanted to live his life after college. but that wasn’t enough to get you hooked. you thought it was grand that he plays golf as a hobby, but it didn’t make your heart melt like it did when a certain someone told you about his song writing hobby.

damn, sunwoo still got you wrapped around his finger. at first you couldn’t figure out why. you were thinking back to your high school exes who you despised immediately after the breakup. you kept wondering why you just cannot find any hatred in you towards sunwoo ‘til you realized it was probably because no one’s at fault for your ending.

you did love him, and sunwoo loved you just as much.

it was the external forces that drove you both vulnerable and sensitive, that it became too much to handle. to be fair, you both were college students working your own part-time jobs. things really did get hellish when you two argue without enough sleep and excessive caffeine intake, plus a pile of paperwork to finish. it wasn’t as easy as it was when you started dating around your senior year in high school. that was what you would define as sunshine, and rainbows, and butterflies.

you hated that your mind kept wandering back to sunwoo. it didn’t help too that you two happened to have gone here for a date before, back when it was rainbows and butterflies.

“why do we even have to eat out? we could’ve just ordered takeout and binged on movies,” you said jokingly.

“don’t you like this?” sunwoo asked in a pout. he wanted to a date different than what you always did and you know he prepared so much for this. you rarely go out on fancy dates because you guys are used to literally just hanging out, cuddling while watching a movie, playing games, and such. it’s always a date if it’s only the two of you.

“i’m just kidding sunwoo i love this,” you answered with a smile. sunwoo smiled back taking your hand in his on the table before speaking, “you know what, we should keep going to restaurants like this. i like seeing you all dolled up.”

his comment made you blush and hide a smile threatening to reach your ears. you tried to hide it by acting mad and saying, “so you mean to tell me you only like to see me when i’m dolled up?”

“dolled up or not, sleepy, or naked, you’re always a beaute to look at,” this got you even more flustered than his first remark that you could only respond with a gentle slap on his forearm to which he laughed at. there were little protests here and there about some stuff being a little too expensive, but you nonetheless appreciated the whole night sunwoo had so wearingly prepared.

“y/n? y/n?” your date waved his hand in front of you. it was only then it registered in your head that you’ve been cutting through a tiny piece of meat almost through the plate with your knife.

“oh yeah i’m- i’m sorry i’m not at my best focus right now, did you say something?”

he chuckled lowly, “it’s fine i was just asking if you’re ready to leave anytime soon?”

you’ve been eager to leave even before you got here. hence, you honestly but politely told him you’re actually ready to go, completely ignoring the few strips of food left on your plate and the half-drank wine in your glass. with your answer, he called on the waiter for the bill. he ended up paying for dinner despite your dissent to pay your own.

as you were both walking out the restaurant, you spoke, “i’m sorry this didn’t click well like how it could have,” giving him an apologetic smile.

“it’s totally fine, at least i didn’t have dinner alone tonight," he painfully joked. you had to bite your tongue from laughing a little too loud at the statement, also to stop yourself from saying you actually would have rather spent tonight alone. you did feel bad that you looked like you weren’t trying at all, although at this point you were just grateful he doesn’t hate you as your dated ended.

“well i’ll be going now,” he continued as he approached his car. “are you sure you’re okay going home alone?” he asked once more to confirm. you told him earlier he didn’t have to drive you home. you already felt guilty he paid for your food, so you didn’t want to leech off of him more with a free ride home. besides, you enjoyed late night walks. might as well take one now to clear your head.

you nodded as you answered, “yes i can manage. i’ll probably stop by somewhere to buy stuff.”

“okay then. be careful y/n, goodbye.” he softly remarked rolling his windows up and finally driving away. you could only respond by waving back with a small smile on your face you’ve been trying so hard to keep on the whole night.

the moment his car is out of sight, you immediately feel your shoulders and back lose tension, losing your rehearsed posture too, and just sighing loudly all in all. that took a lot of mind control, to act all nice and chill. the fact that your head kept bringing you back to sunwoo didn’t help too. it just messed you up even more; reminding you that you miss him, that date felt like a chore you wanted to get over with so you could go home and sulk.

who could blame you? sunwoo was the best you’ve had so far and things ended only because of you guys’ ego and pride, not to mention the extra stress that got the best of you. if only that one stupid argument didn’t lead to you telling him to go, and him actually doing it, you would find it in you to laugh at how petty that fight started.

“why are you forcing this y/n? i already told you it’s a group meeting i can’t cancel on them like that,”

“can’t you move it for like a day? you’re just postponing not canceling. it wouldn’t be too much of a delay like that, right?” you whined and insisted.

“look babe, y/n, i don’t know these people, like i told you it was the professor that assigned the group. if they were our friends it’d be easy to have them excuse us for a date, but these people don’t know us so they don’t really give a fuck about us going to watch a movie. why are you acting like a child, really.” sunwoo explained once more rubbing circles in his temple.

“i’m not acting like a child i just hate that you can’t keep a promise you made,” you know it was just a movie but it was a small date you’ve been looking forward to for weeks you considered it your reward for working hard this month. now sunwoo’s ruined it.

“what promise? for god’s sake y/n it wasn’t like a promise of a lifetime it’s literally just a movie,” he spat in annoyance looking at you with a face in disbelief.

you could not hold it anymore, you were tired and frustrated, now angry at your boyfriend that tears started to stain your eyes glossy, “now you’re just being mean,” you stared at him with sad eyes before continuing, “do you even notice you always do this? you keep cancelling on me and you don’t even do anything to make up for it.”

“okay oh god i- i cannot deal with this right now,”

“maybe you should never deal with this ever again if you find it so hard to keep your word,”

he was halfway the apartment to the door when he halted his walking and turned to you, “if you’re taking it that way then i might as well do so too.”

perhaps what hurt you wasn’t that fight that lead to the breakup, but the idea that sunwoo didn’t bother to come back and try to fix things. plus the piled up frustration that you two couldn’t do things a couple does anymore because of your hectic schedule. you had to give up a lot of your time and the drastic changes became overwhelming.

but then again, that could be his exact thoughts too. he was probably just trying his best to be responsible so as to not disappoint anyone, especially you. he was probably just as tired and frustrated.

but you were both so stubborn.

he might have been waiting on you too just as equally long as you’ve been waiting on him. he could be on a date distracted by the thoughts of you too, but you’ll never know because you had such a tight grip on your pride. and so does he.

you debated whether you were to keep sulking while eating at a street food stall alone, or at a convenience store. either way, you will be downing way more bottles of soju you can physically take anyway.

it took a bell ringing from the entrance door of the convenience store to your right to shake you off of your thoughts. you didn’t even realize your feet were taking you there already, mind still on your ex. you lazily walked inside and made a beeline to the chips section. after picking up random snacks that now filled your left arm, you went straight to the alcohol section trying to balance all the unhealthy food you were carrying with your bag hung on your shoulder.

you were aiming to pick up a few bottles and pay straight after, but as if the universe was hearing your thoughts. the man who have been invading it now stood a few steps from you, with the same posture, same shocked face, and almost similar amount of snacks balanced with one arm.

you didn’t know what to do. nor did you even had any idea about what to feel. you missed him of course, you could just throw away the snacks you were holding and have him replace that spot. but you were stubborn. your pride wouldn’t let you do that.

“oh—oh hey, you can go take yours first,” he says awkwardly, taking a step away from the fridge. it shocked you that he spoke first that you flinched the slightest. you didn’t even realize how long you have been staring at each other. “no it’s okay, go ahead you can go first,” you responded quietly, your eyes meeting his for quite a while and then reverting back down on the ground, then looking around the store.

a million things raced in sunwoo’s head at that same moment. he only meant to buy ramen at that time of the night for his first meal today. he didn’t really eat as healthily as he did when he was with you because you were always the one to remind him to eat on time, even prepared food for him. he missed having you drag him away from his paperwork just to have him eat proper food at a proper time. without you, he wasn’t really able to look out for himself. he knew you would be deadass angry if you found out about his habits since you broke up— that is, if you still cared.

that was why he was frozen on his spot when he saw the face he’s been longing to see. truth be told, it wasn’t even a few hours ago since he mentally argued with himself whether to call you or not. he didn’t know if you changed number, but there was a bit of hope in him wishing that you didn’t because you were waiting for his call too. at the same time, he was scared that you’d recognize the number and choose not to answer, that would hurt as hell and he wasn’t ready for that. hence, the reason why he resorted to playing games until it got dark and felt himself hungry.

now you’re facing each other and circuits are just going on and off in sunwoo’s brain. his hand was reaching for a bottle of soju even before he could comprehend how close you were.

he picked up one, and then another. it was dreadfully slow and he’s acting like he’s moving slowly to be careful but it’s really to savor the moment you were the closest to him after months of missing you. you, on the other hand, didn’t even noticed how slowly he was picking up bottles. you were still stunned, trying to quiet down your heart.

“so,” sunwoo spoke out of nowhere which made you look up sharply, not really helping with calming your heart. “were you, uhm— did you, went out with.. somebody?” he continued in a hush, facing your direction again after picking up three bottles.

you had your eyebrows knitted, caught off guard wondering how he knew.

he must have read your thoughts as he spoke again, “oh you don’t need to answer that if you don’t want to it’s just uh— it’s the clothes,” pointing at your dress awkwardly with that one bottle in his hand, “you don’t usually dress up like that for a trip to a convenience store.”

this made you feel lighter, causing your lips to pull in a smile with a chuckle. he likes seeing you dressed up, he would always ask for a million photos everytime you dress up for dates or events. sunwoo wished it was the latter but his mind was telling him it was a date, considering the time. it hurt him to ask but he had to at least know if you’ve got somebody new already. sunwoo thought you were so pretty, well he always did, but it made his stomach twist thinking about you getting all dolled up for a date that isn’t him.

“mmh, i had a date,” you hummed.

there was the answer he was scared to hear. he was expecting it but having it confirmed stung.

“oh, well then, that’s.. good to know, i won’t hold you up then.” he said with a forced smile in panic moving away from his spot in front of the fridge to give way to you.

“no, i’m not with him anymore,” you said making him turn around, “i’m alone now we just ate dinner, i’m actually on my way home.”

“you’re going home alone?” sunwoo asked almost in disbelief. if someone’s gonna take you from him, might as well be someone who’ll take care of you. learning that your date let you go home alone annoyed him. “it’s not like that, it’s— it didn’t really work out it’s just the first date i don’t think there will be a next one,” you laughed as you picked up two bottles of soju, your mind going back to the awkward encounter earlier you couldn’t believe you endured for an hour, even two.

this somehow made the twisting in sunwoo’s stomach stop. even made him forget he was hungry in the first place. at this point, his mind raced even more than it did moments ago when he saw you. his head was telling him two things: either he chickens out, or finally do what he’s been meaning to do.

just as you were closing the fridge, he spoke before he regrets not saying anything.

“would it be weird if i ask you to eat all these, and those,” motioning his not-so-free hand to the food you both were balancing with an arm each, “with me back in my place? or yours?” there was so much hope in his voice. “i mean, i’m sorry that didn’t sound good— i know you’re just coming home from a date, and well, we’re not together but like— just hangout maybe,” he kept rambling on with his mind all over the place trying to look for the right words.

“i missed you too.”

you finally blurted out.

this stopped sunwoo’s talking and got him looking at you straight in the eyes, letting the words sink in within him— his heart. you found the right words.

and it melts him on the spot. it felt like he finally got what he has been waiting for, for the longest time. dumb of him, and you too, to go off of each other and act like you’re looking for something else when you were literally a phone call away to each other.

he could’ve dropped all he had in his arms to hug you but he only kept watching your small smile. no words were spoken. just him looking at you with the truest intentions in his eyes, “let’s go home then.”

you could only nod, trying your best to stop yourself from bawling. what took you two so long to get your head out of your asses?

if one of you had the guts earlier than today, you both could’ve been walking back to your apartment months ago like how you are now. sunwoo missed these streets, just as much as you missed him beside you as you crossed them.

sunwoo’s apartment was closer and you would have opted to go there, but as sunwoo said, “it’s a jungle in there right now, you might want to leave again if you see it.” you could only roll your eyes at his joke but you knew damn well that was true and that’s another thing to fix some other time.

for now, all your attention is set on the man that has been invading your thoughts since ugly months ago. frankly speaking you were still quite hurt, but it felt safe with him next to you, your hand in his, squeezing it tighter than he ever did.

perhaps stubborn love still finds its way back. and maybe you won’t be crying alone to 'your name' tonight, nor be the only one using it as an excuse to cry.

“babe seriously, if you take any longer we’re really going to be late,” sunwoo whined in panic while you put your fake lashes in place.

as you fan on your freshly put lashes you chuckled before answering your boyfriend, “sunwoo, my parents aren’t going to give you detention if we get there a little late.”

sunwoo will be meeting your parents for the first time after 6 months of dating. your parents never really pressured you to bring him home to have him meet them until last month when they were shocked you were still together. i guess you could say it’s getting serious. well, you knew it was serious with sunwoo, he had always been good to you and genuine with his feelings. you just didn’t want to burden him with the “meet-the-family” thing because he might get panicky, although now, he already is.

“i know y/n,” he continued whining acting as if he is to cry, “don’t joke around me right now i’m literally cold inside and out i’m so nervous i don’t want them to think you have a shit boyfriend.”

you turned to look at him in shock, “hey don’t say that, they’ll love you sunwoo you’re amazing with people.” you reached for his hand in an attempt to console him. you were really surprised that he’d think that. although you did expect him to be nervous, you initially thought he’d still be confident about meeting your parents, he was the one who often asked about when he’d get to meet them. he was also so enthusiastic meeting your friends from your hometown before and they ended up liking him for it. sunwoo always looked confident talking with people and he was one to keep the conversation going, even making them laugh occasionally. now he’s all tensed and you’d actually think it’s cute if it wasn’t for his face looking so pale.

“sunwoo at this point i’m gonna have to put makeup on you too, please take it easy,” rubbing your thumbs on the back of his hand.

“remember how i was so worried about meeting your family too? i almost backed out then but it ended up being just fine.”

“but that’s you and you’re amazing. i might mess up and your parents will think i’m just another dude and then tell you to date someone else or something,” now he’s whining in pout but you have to push aside your potential cooing.

“babe, even if they end up not liking you, which i’m sure they won’t, it’s not like i’m gonna drop you then and there? you’re too cute to dump sunwoo i’d be the shit girlfriend if i do that,” you joke.

that got sunwoo chuckling and taking your hands with his this time.

“if i end up crying in front of your mom or dad please hug me,” now it’s him joking and it relieved you that he’s loosen up a little.

“that wasn’t a joke,” sunwoo said making you laugh even more.

this is one of the many things you loved about him.

“see if you keep up with these jokes until later you’d survive dinner,” you remarked turning back around to the mirror and finishing your makeup. sunwoo only glared at you, “okay but if they ask why were late i’m gonna say it’s because of those damn lashes.”

“also can you drive? because if you let me i might keep going around back here.”

sunwoo’s jest about his nervousness went on the whole drive and you’re just glad he’s not frozen. the ride didn’t take too long and you were in front of your house even before sunwoo could process.

he inhaled before speaking, “i can’t cancel now, can i,” you gently slapped his arm at his remark.

“it’s too late to cancel now but if you feel like crying just tell me, so i can tell them i’m tired so we go back to my apartment already and leave,” you jokingly said before keying in and opening the door.

safe to say sunwoo didn’t broke down in tears that night. he calmed down during dinner and enjoyed the food your dad made, probably the reason why your dad liked him instantly. your mom and sister on the other hand laughed almost the whole night, also found him so lovely for doing sports and managing his studies at the same time.

the night turned out fine, sunwoo was okay, he was happy just as much as you were.

[ 4:12 ]

it was a tuesday afternoon and you were caught up in a meeting with your school rival, kim sunwoo, because you kept bickering like you always did when deciding on things. you were the student council president and he was your vice president.

you were between being friends and enemies but you two never really bothered to figure it out.

there were just days when you both could share a sandwich, but then there are some when you‘re both at each other’s throat.

the meeting was dragged on longer than it should have been because today was one of the latter, that by the time you were leaving it started raining.

“looks like this is gonna be your first shower,” sunwoo mocked you as he put his bag in front of him and opening it, and you just watched— more like glared at him as he did so.

he had an umbrella while you didn’t and he was willing to share it to you but as usual, decided to tease you first before pulling you under it with him.

you were quite shocked and it was evident that he was too.

with you inches far from him, he realized that you oddly made him feel warm despite the cold wind that chilled his skin.

it’s not that he wanted you sick or something, but he might have unconsciously wished you always forget to bring your umbrella.

you, on the other hand, chose to completely forget that umbrella you were planning to run back to in your locker.

this was much better, a lot better.
