getting a tattoo with wooseok
Tumblr media
a/n: i didn’t specify what type of tattoo or where the reader would get it so that it’s more reader friendly
warnings: reader getting a tattoo and a vague mention of pain
when you would tell wooseok that you’d want a tattoo he’d get so excited about and would mention all of these cool ideas to you but of course he’d know that it was 100% you decision of what design you’d get
he’d still draw a few things just to show you or you’d mention some things you’d be interested in and he’d try drawing them out for you so that you could customize things a bit more to your liking before the final decision and his talent would never cease to amaze you
then there would be the time to decide on the placement of the tattoo and woosoek would be sitting next to you with his laptop and would search tattoo placement and which areas would cause the most and least pain
after pretty much everything would be figured out and you had some time to think it over, you’d find a tattoo shop near you with good reviews and wooseok would drive you there
also i feel like wooseok would make a playlist for you to commemorate the day but to also calm down any nerves that you’d have. the playlist would have all of your and his favorite songs and you’d sing along to it on the way to the tattoo shop
once you’d talk with an artist and show them wooseok’s drawings for your inspiration etc. you’d get comfortable in the chair as the artist would prepare everything and wooseok would give you an encouraging smile
wooseok would sit right next to you and comfort you when you’d need it and he’d be quick to get you a bottle of water or put on a video on his phone to help take your mind off it which you’d appreciate a lot
if you’d decide to get a tattoo on the larger side, wooseok would try his best to reassure every 10 minutes when you’d ask if it was almost done. and he’d have to hold in his laugh at the child-like frown you’d have on your face if there would be a lot left to go
when the tattoo when finally be complete, wooseok would stare at you in awe because you’d somehow became even cooler to him (not that he would think a tattoo would define you or how cool you are)
he’d do his own research about how to take of your skin after a tattoo and would probably put all of the tattoo artist’s advice in his notes app just to make sure that he could help you if needed. he’d be there to remind about taking care of it if you ever forgot but it wouldn’t be in a nagging way bc that would be that thing he’d want to do
once your skin would heal and the tattoo wouldn’t be faded, i think he would absentmindedly trace it every now and then and would always comment on how cool it would look on you
getting a tattoo with wooseok would be a very fun experience for the both of you. he would admire how strong you were during the process, even if you’d say it didn’t hurt much and you’d probably expire him to get a tattoo in the future or matching tattoos

PTG as Owl City Songs Pt.2
Part 2 is here!!! I'll repeat myself
IMPORTANT: This is purely out of my imagination, I do NOT know how the ptg members are and their true personalities. This is how I perceive them through the content they provide us on social media. Also, the songs interpretations were mine. They might not be what the artist intended but how I understood them.
None of the pictures are mine! Got them on Pinterest
happy reading! and maybe listening too ~Foxy🦊
Pt.1 | masterlist
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Yanan
The Tip Of The Iceberg 
Cute, heartwarming and a bit fairy like, like Yanan. Like mentioned in other members, each song has its own unique traits just like the Pentagon members. Yanan and this song are no exception. Also, the title also fits the situation quite well, since the tip of the iceberg is always just a small part of the iceberg and theres a lot to discover under the water, and Yanan with his shy personality also has a lot hidden behind what he actually shows us. 2023 me - the songs also says how some actions are just the tip of the iceberg of things the protagonist would do to get back their loved one, and it also fits well with the relationship of universe and pentagon with Yanan. Even being away from him for so long, we’d do everything to see the boys together again.
Gold (2023)
Yanan is gold. The song tells about someone who is gold, someone who might not see their whole potential even though they are it. For the longest time as a Universe I saw Yanan being like this and slowly starting to become more confident as the years went by. Yanan! You’re gold, so shine forever! Also, CONGRATS ON 1st PLACE YANAN S2 YOU DESERVE IT
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Yuto
Up All Night 
I really don't know but this song fits Yuto. Maybe is the beat that changes and shows many styles that reminds me of Yuto, of how he looks like something but acts as something else. The song is mysterious and beautiful and thats really Yuto. Its cute but serious and the guitar part... definitely something that fits Yuto. Also, just like Yu, this song has a special place in my heart. “I just can’t get you off my mind, now I’m gonna be up all night”
I'm coming after you (2023)
I’m not sure why 2020 me chose this song bc she didn't write anything, maybe it was the instrumental? I think the bass in the song gives off Yuto vibes. It’s a lightweight song that seems almost theatrical to me. “Woo woo woo- I’m coming after you” The siren sounds seem fun and something that cute and the rest of Mayonnaise would add to their songs haha
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Kino
Plant life 
Kino has a flower aesthetic so why not? The song is really artistic and that it would suit kino's style if he danced to this song, or even sang it. Both are gentle, creative and majestic, showing a really unique kind of power, that feels almost magical. The lyrics also has Kino's vibes to it. It’s full of metaphors and pretty sounds (I think it’s my favorite owl city song)
shooting star
Kino is a shooting star! Like the song, he seems like the type of person to encourage and support others whey they feel down or tired. Kino is comfort to others, someone really precious and kind. “So shine no matter where you are tonight”
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Wooseok
Dreams and Disasters 
The image this song makes me think of is always a young couple, careless and fun, driving in a road in the middle of nowhere. This free-spirited style remind me of maknae Wooseokie. The upbeat melody and free-spirited lyrics fit Wooseok who is young and seem adventurous. “I wanna feel alive forever after”
Strawberry Avalanche
I don't know exactly why, but i guess pink Wooseok fits this. Another fun and cute song that fits shy Wooseok. I have this image that Woo is a pretty cute and gentle 2m tall boy and the scenario created by this song would fit him well. 2023 me- The song sounds soft and childish and I feel like behind the serious aura and appearance that wooseok has, there is a gentle and dreamy person there.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Pentagon
Good time
I don't really think I have to explain, but here I am anyways. Ptg is such a fun group. They are all very unique and display their individual charms throughout their journey. Every time we see them it's a good time, doesn't matter what they are doing. They turn the most normal things into something fun to look forward to.
Embers
I feel like this song talks about hope and, as cliche as it seems, pentagon simbolizes that to me. "When its all said and done, we'll shine like the sun so don't let the fire die." It simbolizes well the groups history and it works for their fans too, since seeing their journey Universe might feel inspired to just keep going too. It’s like Eternal Flame!
The Technicolor Phase
Support. Another word I think of when it comes to Pentagon. Thought the song you see how the lyrics say how they’re the support, how they are there to accompany wherever you are. “I am the green in the grass, That bends back from underneath your feet (...) I am the black in the book, The letters on the pages that you memorize” Pentagon and their songs are there for the fans whenever and wherever, it’s what keeps us entertained, hopeful, happy… you name it.

x1 as video game party members
[ listed in order of how soon you can acquire them ]
Yohan
<< You must've hit your head pretty hard going downstream. Name's Yohan. >>
story related
romance-able npc (friendly personality)
your first party member, guaranteed acquisition
all-rounder
achievement: no more // unlocks all base skills
main weapon: close-range // secondary weapon: long-range
your first friend at the post and mostly the reason you're alive. he picked you up when a scouting team found you in the water and insisted on saving you, said you deserved a chance at life, even if you did bear the tattoo of the rebel alliance. he doesn't know your story but he thinks you'll make a great asset to the post if you ever regain your memory.
<< We make a pretty good team, chief. >>
Wooseok
<< Big talk for someone who's already been my captive, but sure. Whatever you say. You can call me Wooseok. >>
romance-able npc (stand-off-ish personality)
difficulty level: ⭐⭐⭐
close-range marksman
achievement: red moon // unlocks advanced handgun skills + 50% damage increase with handguns
main weapon: close-range // secondary weapon: melee
the leader of a stand-alone post in the woods, referred to as eclipse, way out past the river and virtually untouched by everything, including the rebel alliance. he captures you and your party members when you make your way there to ask for reinforcements, threatening to have you killed as a warning to anyone else who comes near. once you manage to get on his good side he's willing to let you live in exchange for a few favors. and he'll think about helping you out when you're done.
<< I forgot how much fun this is. >>
Minhee & Hyeongjun
<< I'm Minhee. I make things go boom as a hobby. >>
<< Well, you're not getting anywhere fast in something like that. Might be able to give you a hand though. Hyeongjun. >>
difficulty level: ⭐⭐
minhee: explosives
achievement: adrenaline // unlocks advances explosive skills + 50% damage increase with explosives
main weapon: explosives // secondary weapon: long-range
hyeongjun: driver
achievement: gas pedal // unlocks mechanic skills including vehicle repair
main weapon: long-range // secondary weapon: close-range
the pair are a couple of rogues whose main goal in life is to make life hard for the rebel alliance. at their core, they're just a couple of hooligans whose favorite thing to do is pick the weak ones off one by one to remind the alliance that they're not really that tough. it's put them in some tight spots, however so they're not totally opposed to joining the good fight but you're gonna have to convince them. and don't forget, they're a package deal.
<< Frag out! I always wanted to say that... >>
<< Now this is what I'm talking about! >>
Eunsang
<< Yeah, I'm Eunsang. I'm just a medic though, what would you be looking for me for? >>
difficulty level: ⭐
medic
achievement: beautiful scar // unlocks advanced medical skills + 50% heal increase with medicinal healing items
main weapon: long-range (non-gun) // secondary weapon: melee
a traveling medic, he's more than willing to give a hand to those in need but he's skeptical of your intentions. at the end of the day, he'll be willing to join your team as long as you're willing to be honest with him. he is, after all, a pacifist.
<< I don't remember signing up for this! >>
Junho
<< Wouldn't call myself a "people person", but it's not so easy being on your own out here. Junho, and you are? >>
difficulty level: ⭐⭐
hand-to-hand - knives
achievement: villain // unlocks advanced stealth skills + 50% damage increase with bladed weapons
main weapon: melee // secondary weapon: close range
a thief, a bandit, a no-good klepto. people in the area have an eye out for this guy because he's been known to steal literally anything as long as it's useful. which can be handy if you know how to use them. junho's been keeping himself alive with his theivery and he's built up a bit of a skillset when it comes to stealth. but being a one-man show is dangerous and he's willing to give you the help you ask for, so long as you're willing to help in response.
<< Y'know, I got shot at less when I was just a thief. >>
Seungyoun
<< Killed you!? Ha! Don't expect that to be the only time. Name's Seungyoun, if you were interested. >>
romance-able npc (distrustful personality)
difficulty level: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
hand-to-hand - blunt weapons
achievement: i hate you // unlocks advanced melee weapon skills + 75% damage increase overall
main weapon: melee // secondary weapon: long-range
out in the plains, hiding in a broken military base is one man and he's crazy. people warn others not to go out to the plains because the guy out there will kill you for absolutely nothing. it's risky, but he's a hell of a man, specializes in close combat, and will do anything if the price is right. he almost kills you the moment you walk up to the base and it won't be the last time but if you gain his trust he'll be indispensable to the fight. just don't mind the insanity.
<< Oh, hell yeah! >>
Dongpyo
<< I'm kind of impressed. And trust me when I tell you I don't say that very often. I'm Dongpyo. >>
difficulty level: ⭐⭐⭐⭐
long-range marksman
achievement: killa // unlocks advanced long-range weapon skills + 50% damage increase with long-range weapons
main weapon: long-range // secondary weapon: close-range
he works alone and he likes it like that, or at least that's what he tells you. the guy's been on his own out here, sniper loaded and several hundred meters of forest completely untouched around him because members of the rebel alliance have fallen due to his good eye a few too many times. his solitude is self-enforced but once you make it past his minefield, he's not such a bad guy. he's actually willing to help you, impressed that you weren't deterred. but first, you gotta help him.
<< Don't do anything too stupid. I can see everything from up here. >>
Hangyul & Dohyon
<< Mercy? I don't really know her so consider yourself lucky I don't bet on guaranteed losses. I'm Hangyul. >>
<< And I'm Dohyon. Don't mind my brother, he can be a bit over-protective. >>
romance-able npc (Hangyul only; cocky personality)
difficulty level: ⭐⭐⭐
hangyul: hand-to-hand melee
achievement: jaws // unlocks advanced melee weapon skills + 50% damage increase with melee weapons
main weapon: melee // secondary weapon: explosives
dohyon: medic
achievement: soul // unlocks advanced medical skills + ability to craft first aid kits
main weapon: close-range // secondary weapon: long-range (non-gun)
the unbreakable bond between brothers is a special one and you learn that first hand when you meet dohyon, only to have his older brother come at you with a knife in the next second. a pair of nomadic hunters they're just trying to get by and avoid the alliance, and they're doing alright by themselves. so when you offer to help them it's a swift and firm 'no' until you manage to wheedle a price out of them. at this point, you know everyone has one so what's theirs?
<< Feels good to be in a fight again. >>
<< Have you considered being less reckless? Just asking. >>
Seungwoo
<< I've heard a lot about you. My name's Seungwoo, welcome to the post. >>
story related character
romance-able npc (romantic personality)
difficulty level: ⭐⭐⭐⭐
all-rounder
achievement: sacrifice // unlocks master skills + 50% defense increase overall
main weapon: close-range // secondary weapon: long-range
you meet seungwoo when you get the quest to go looking for the second post, the post is not very far, and certainly your best bet at really gaining a good defense. but it's rather obvious to you when you meet him, the leader of this post, that he's not interested in making friends. he's not interested in building a defense and possibly putting his people in danger. but you know better than anyone by now that you're stronger together and when you manage to convince him of it, he's willing to give it a shot. he's willing to help you. but if you want him in your party you're going to have earn far more than his trust: his respect.
<< Remember, we can't save anyone else if we get killed. >>
Additional achievements tied to party members / acquisition:
U Got It: obtain all party members
FLASH: get the secret / best ending [ secret achievement ]
EOEO: build enough friendship with Seungyoun to hear about his mysterious past [ secret achievement ]

Tumblr media
Hi! I’m serendipminie, but you can call me Minie/Vasha!
You might know me from either of the following:
~ @aventurine-official (A roleplay blog for Aventurine from HSR!)
~ @serendipminie-writes (My writing sideblog!)
Tumblr media
I’m a K-Pop multistan and HoyoVerse simp who loves reading, writing and music. I’m a February baby, my personality type is ISFJ and my pronouns are she/her. I'm fluent in English and French and I’m openly panromantic :)
I'm known among my mutuals as the Wonhyuk girl, the aesthetic queen, and the lesbian witch-- I will take those titles gladly. I play both Genshin Impact and Honkai: Star Rail, and I’m super lore-oriented. In fact, I currently run 20/ish rp blogs for different fandoms ahaha~
If you’d like to see the list of roleplay blogs I mod, take a look at the intro post over at (@minies-ask-game-prompts)!
I write both original stories and fanfiction for a few fandoms too. AUs are my joy. I like writing personalized fics for my friends, making aesthetic moodboards, and sending my mutuals music or art through the DMs. 
My current top ship is Aventio, and my current favourite character is in fact, Aven! I happen to be an Aven myself– both in rp and to my platonic Veritas @blak-ie :) 
List of my lovely mutuals here!
Want to be mutuals? No problem! Just let me know :)
Tumblr media
If you want to sort through my tags:
General:
for my mutuals: If you are a mutual, anything with this tag is for you!
it's definitely queue ✨: Any posts from my queue!
minie's fic recs: Really good fanfic that I'll reblog here
minie's media: Any media I consume
minie's musings: Any random thoughts I might have!
minie's moodboards: I make moodboards for my writing or by request!
minie's playlists: Playlists I put together, often kpop but can be other music too
minie's roleplay rambles: Messages or asks from other mods that end up here!
minie's song recommendations: Songs/MVs I post that I encourage others to listen to
Fandom:
aventurine stone: Aventurine / Aventio tag because I can't be normal about Aven or his boyfriend
creator of life/my wife: Ruan Mei content
cornerstone of credit: Jade content
genshinposting: Genshin Impact thoughts or reblogs
kaveh my babygirl: Most likely me stanning Kaveh
kpop pic collage: I make picture collages of idols and groups, find them here
my hyukie: Wonhyuk content
neuvillotter: My tag for Fontaine's Hydro Dragon. Distinguished French gays have got to stick together
ult culture: Anything having to do with my ult biases, you will find here~
starrailposting: Honkai: Star Rail thoughts or reblogs
sunturatio: Toxic yaoi throuple. Need I elaborate
Tumblr media
K-Pop:
I found K-Pop in late 2019, before the pandemic. The first song I ever heard was BTS's Idol. Then, I became curious and fell headfirst into the K-Pop world. It really helped ground me throughout the pandemic, and I haven't came out since.
Ult groups: BTS, E'Last, Oneus, Seventeen, Kingdom, Everglow, TXT, Dreamcatcher, OnlyOneOf, Lucy, Xdinary Heroes
Top four ult biases: Jimin, Wonhyuk, Seoho and Kim Wooseok
K-Soloists I stan: Sunmi, ChungHa, IU, Taeyeon, Jackson Wang, and Kang Daniel
Tumblr media
Genshin Impact:
I dove into the game's lore before ever playing, fell in love with the character designs and simply had to join the fandom. Kaveh caught my heart immediately and he has not let go (I love you pathetic blonde babygirl)
I play on the American server, my user id will be added below if you want to add me as a friend!
UID:
Current main: Ningguang!
Current main team: Ningguang, Jean, Freminet and Xingqiu!
My favourite characters: Kaveh, Neuvillette, Ningguang, Kokomi, Lynette, Yanfei, Chiori, Pantalone
My favourite ships: Haikaveh/Kavehtham, Wriolette, Ayathoma/Thomato, Dottolone, Beigguang, Kazuhei, Eimiko, JeanLisa
Tumblr media
Honkai Star Rail:
I’m not ashamed to say that Aventurine drove me to this fandom. Because I save so much Haikaveh stuff on Pinterest, and the recommendations are visually sorted, it wasn’t long before my algorithm started mistaking Aventurine for Kaveh. 
I was very intrigued, actually— I quickly became obsessed after I saw the gay-ass lightcone. Aventio? ...Yeah, it was over for me. I started playing in late december of 2023, and I saved my pulls from the beginning to pull Aventurine ever since I knew he would be playable :) I was successful and now have a very well-built Aventurine, his lightcone and his Veritas.
I play on the American server once more, my user id will be added below if you want to borrow my support Aven!
UID: 617315133
Current main: Aventurine!
Current main team: Aventurine, Dr. Ratio, Luocha and Madam Yukong (Mono-Imaginary team, hell yeah)
My favourite characters: Aventurine, Ruan Mei, Jade, Luocha, Madam Yukong, Tingyun (rip cutie), Asta, Kafka, Fu Xuan, Misha and Black Swan
My favourite ships: Aventio/Sunturine/Sundatio, Kafhime, Renheng, Jingren, Topasta, Bronseele, Acheswan
Tumblr media
I hope you enjoy the blog~!

"I thought Taeyong's ears were expressive but look at that," Haechan says, poking at you with a cotton swab. You hiss, teeth bared at the younger canine from your vantage on the medical table. 
"What do they look like when you're happy?" he asks, baby face breaking into a smirk.
Now that you've spent time with him under less miserable circumstances you've found he's charming, if perhaps a little too playful. 
You let out a sharp cry when he grabs your tail mid-flick, twisting it to get a better look. You swat his hand away, claws itching beneath your skin unable to break out now that you’re no longer saturated in the contamination of the Wild.
"What an adorable color. Calico?"
"Melanistic cross fox," you sniff. Even abused you can't help but preen at the compliment.
"Yah," Taeil yells from his lab console, tossing a pen at the younger Alpha. "Don't provoke her."
"You looked so much cuter with ears," you deflect, running your nails through his tawny-brown hair before he can pull away. "Imagine if you had a cute little tail like mine. Would it be wagging?"
Your flirtation has the intended effect of making his eyes go wide, nostrils flaring a bit. He backs up into a tray table, startling at the sound before running from the room without another word.
You can't blame him for pestering you. He's the youngest of a pack of Alphas taking on the role of omega operatively, if not nominally. You'd been trained for how to survive in such a role with more demanding mates, so it's a relief to meet one that's fun. 
Unfortunately not a word you'd apply to any of the others in these barracks. 
"Your bloodwork is stable at the moment," Taeil says, bringing you a clear tablet to show you incomprehensible graphs and numbers. "I've given you supplements but the increasing concentration of felid DNA signatures in addition to your natural form means you'll probably want to maintain a higher protein diet."
At the mention of food your ears stand up, but the look he gives you kills your excitement.
"There is one more concern."
His gaze trails lower. You clutch your gown tight around your middle, along with your tail.
"Are you sure I can't just suppress this? The Imperial physicians were able to stop my other heats. Why not just put me in cryotherapy?" 
"Do you see a cryochamber here?" He pinches his nose over his glasses, mouth a line. "The formula I've been developing the past few years for . . . It's six times as strong. The issue isn't strength, its tolerance. We're working at multiple disadvantages." 
You stare at him with unfeigned misery. "What's your medical advice for getting through this?" 
He steps back, scratching his head absently. "It won't be pretty. We have a space for you to be alone and safe with scent exclusion. But . . ."
You crumble a little at the word alone. It was the preheat skewering your intellect of course, but you had never imagined that your first time would be without physical assistance. Your lessons in intimacy had strictly prohibited it to the point that some texts cited examples of fatalities. 
Taeil laughs darkly when you tell him. "Oh god I forgot what nonsense they fill your heads with. You won't die. You might feel like you're dying."
"Is that how a rut feels?" you ask. 
He looks a little surprised at your question. "Well, I believe it's the same. I haven't been in a rut before."
"Oh," you say with a polite dip of your head. "Of course, you trained to be an Imperial physician. I apologize–"
"No, that's not–" he protests, a little anger flaring under the surface of his usual casualness. He pulls a vial from his front pocket. "Chemical suppression only."
"Oh," you say, feeling your face grow warm. "I didn't mean to imply . . ."
"I've been working on a fool-proof suppressant for Alpha physiology since I dropped out of the Imperial clinic. For obvious reasons. Omega suppression is a much more complicated science with much more unknowns."
You nod seriously, keeping your face smooth to avoid laughing.
"You aren't taught this, of course, but certain animal physiologies have less aggressive mating cycles."
"Like yours?"
Taeil clears his throat, looking mildly embarrassed. "We're a hibernating species." 
You can't hold back your giggle, earning you a dangerous look as he leans back against a desk. 
"Considering you're in a den of eight Alphas and an Alpha-altered omega you should be grateful for the fact that I can control my rut. The others . . . Well, we'll see."
It's like that horrible plunge into cold water earlier, dousing your giddiness. 
"No one is going to force me, are they?" you ask, hands bunching in your examination gown.
"We're actively making sure that won't happen. But you will be in a state where we have to concede the risk you'll seek one of us out for sex."
"No," you say. "Never." 
"Do you need me to replay you footage from that rooftop?" He places a calloused hand over yours, hesitating before pulling away. "That wasn’t even a fraction of what you'll go through."
"So what do we do?" you ask.
"Prepare for the worst," he says. "I can give you a contraceptive biochip. But I have to put you under to implant it." 
"Why?" You'd been in surgery more than anyone should ever have been–first to heal your wounds, then the complicated spinal taps and procedures–most of them wide awake. The scars had healed but not your memory of the torture. 
"Because there's an even higher possibility than normal of you trying to rip it out while in heat," he says. 
His tone is clinical but you shudder at the knowledge that you'll be that, not yourself. Or rather, yourself–stripped down to the most animalistic of natures and drives. 
"Is it possible to give me more than one?" you ask. 
Tumblr media
Sleep doesn't retract her claws until what you can only imagine is midday. You find yourself in an ancient hospital bed nearest to the floor-to-ceiling windows of Taeil's medical wing, his own quarters adjacent, sealed door shut. 
You hadn’t gotten a chance to explore yesterday, whisked through the commons for your examination and the procedure, but you don't recall there being such a fantastic smell emanating through your new home.
Not one of the many signatures of your new packmates–no, something much more delightful. 
Food.
You slip out of bed, a little groggily from the heavy slumber, and stumble on a pair of slippers. There's also, blessedly, clothing to replace the sweat-stained hospital gown hanging off you. The adjacent patient bathroom allows you to shower again–this time at a much more reasonable temperature–and you shrug into the clothing with a careful sniff.
If it wasn't obvious from the woods-and-meadow scent, the specialty button work of the soft pants is suitable for a tail like yours, though they are a tad long. You cuff them and roll up the sleeves of the luxurious sweater, shuffling down the tiled halls towards the main hub.
There's a cafeteria-like feel to the space–possibly repurposed from something older like the rest of the building. The higher ceilings–cut into the last three floors–allow light to pour into the center of the room like an atrium. The industrial rows of fridges and counters and stoves are clean but not barren, stocked with what looks like a treasure trove after days of field rations and horrifying stews.
A familiar face looks up at you from a cutting board, nose wrinkling at the sight of your messy hair and over-large clothing.
"Well at least you're decent," Taeyong remarks, dicing a root vegetable with a pungent aroma. 
"Thank you," you say, hanging back and scanning the room for other occupants. You find Doyoung curled over a screen at the large table near the windows, tapping away. 
"The others won't be joining us," Taeyong assures you. 
"You have my gratitude for your hospitality, Your Highness," you bow a little, genuinely pleased. 
"You don't want us to call you that, do you?" Haechan's head pops up from where he's retrieving bowls from one of the lower storage shelves. 
"Absolutely not," Doyoung says, eyes flicking up to you with similar distaste. "Are you feeling rested, Princess?"
"No formal titles," you respond quickly. "Just names."
"I always thought that Daughter of Heaven Eastern Lotus stuff sounded a bit stuffy," Haechan muses. "Is it true they don't have real flowers in the Dome?"
"The lotuses are real," you say. You'd spent a great deal of time sitting by them in your youth, watching a variety of iridescent carp mouth along the leaves for traces of food. Your grandmother's gardens had been a much-loved retreat, until she'd gone into seclusion. 
"I never knew what they smelled like," Doyoung says, waving his hand as if to shoo away the reek. "I don't suppose we'll be adding any to the conservatory, now."
"You have a conservatory?" Excitement crackles through you. You'd noticed the wealth of green in the upper compartments of the kitchen, including downwards-growing herbs and vegetables. Several well-cultivated box gardens had also been placed around the common room, short palms growing in the middle of the atrium towards the roof. It's a lovely contrast to the industrial feel of the concrete and metal interior.
"Taeyong's preferred form of offering is plants," Haechan says. "And fish." 
He punctuates the sentence with a knife chop through a large section of what appears to be cod. "What can I get you to drink?"
"Thank you but I would prefer to help myself," you say, opening the fridge. Inside is a chaos of packaged beverages in flavors unfamiliar to you outside of Betafax channel ads. You select a fruit-flavored tea, delighted to find a row of assorted mugs near the hot beverage dispenser. 
"These are incredible," you say, picking out one shaped like a blue cat with a friendly face. "Are they antiques?" 
You turn to see the men in the room staring at you as if you'd spoken an alien language. 
"Oh, she's adorable." Haechan gestures with the chef's knife. "Can we keep her?" 
Taeyong's red tail, usually flat, bristles. "Get back to work, kid."
Doyoung snorts slightly, less amused. "Surely they educate you in that hellhole." 
"Of course," you quip. "All the fine arts, including cuisine. Do you need assistance with the cooking?" 
Taeyong waves you away. "Maybe sometime else."
"You can't possibly know how to cook. Don't they just, I don't know, serve you on silver platters? I heard you eat beef every day." Haechan says, looking wistful.
"No, there's duck, and lamb. And every other meat," you say, innocently. "Our menus are customized to our essential diets."
"Rabbit?" Haechan asks, earning a glare from Doyoung.
"Rabbit cheeks stewed in wine is one of my fav–" you bite your tongue when Taeyong gives you a pointed shake of his head. 
"My apologies," you say, darting from the kitchen to carefully approach the man at the table. "I've never met a Lepid before."
"You can keep your distance, please," Doyoung warns. "I have enough to deal with because of you without you wanting to take a bite out of me." 
You open your mouth to assure him otherwise but you feel it would be inappropriate with how much your mouth waters. Your stomach chooses that moment to growl even more inappropriately. 
You sit at the far end of the dining table, happily sipping at the cold tea. It tastes much better than anything served to you in state function, especially with the view of the hazy city that stretches out before you. 
Far below the span of projected advertisements thinned out in the daylight are the tiny glints of AVs and smaller vehicles moving along the skylanes. 
The water lines are low after the flood's recession but you can see where the seawalls are built up with new sediment and great swaths of flotsam. You imagine there's already reclamation teams picking through them for materials–every year precious relics were brought into the Dome for auction from the salvage.
"How high are we up?" You ask, breaking the comfortable silence. 
"This is technically the 122nd floor." Doyoung answers, tone bored. "Wind shear is too high for an open roof, what you see up there is the top of the building."
"Amazing," you exclaim. "Do you see many birds up here?" 
"No," he says. He looks up at you pointedly. "Wind shear."
"I saw a falcon, once," Haechan offers. "But that was at a lower altitude."
"It must be difficult to pilot," you say. 
The younger Canid puffs up at your attention. "Of course. But I'm good."
"I'm sure you are," you say, smiling. 
"Stop that, please," Doyoung says. You realize your tail is thumping against the chair and make the uncomfortable decision to sit on it rather than risk annoying him, again.
"My apologies," you say.
"That too," he says, slamming the console closed. "Break the habit of constantly apologizing." 
You open your mouth and close it, cheeks growing hot. 
"Never in my wildest imagination did I believe I'd be forced to deal with two of you," Doyoung says to Taeyong, breezing past the kitchen to the stairwell.
"Aren't you hungry?" Haechan asks. "We made your favorite salad–"
A rather rude gesture signals Doyoung's departure. 
"Don't mind him, he's always combative before a rut," Haechan explains, bringing you a tray of dishes and a bowl of rice. "Your first course, Your Majesty."
You look down at the amazing spread, each immaculate serving as foreign to you as if it were pulled from a different world entirely. 
"What's this?" you ask, picking up a silver utensil. 
"A spoon," he laughs, awkwardly. "Really?" 
"I'm joking," you say after a beat. He collapses in the chair beside you, relieved. "But honestly, I don't know any of this."
Taeyong brings a few platters to the table–grilled fish and a golden circle of cooked dough filled with chives. "They have unusual cuisine in the Dome. Let's introduce you to ours."
It's the best meal of your life, somehow made better by the constant attention you receive as Haechan layers each serving on your rice for you to try. You experience each new flavor and texture with relish–surprised to learn how much of it is preserved. 
"I love this thing here, the pasta." 
"Ramen," Taeyong laughs. "Street food. You can still get gourmet cuisine in the clancorp restaurants."
Your nose wrinkles in distaste.
"I don't want to eat anything else," you say. "There's so many flavors." 
"You're not used to synthetics," Taeyong explains. "But most of what's out here is what people can grow naturally. There's very little meat beside fish and some rare wild game. Or lab grown, if you can handle the texture." 
"Insects," you say, nose wrinkling. 
"An inexpensive protein," Taeyong says. "Fish is best for our species."
"It all tastes . . . More real?" You say, tentatively. 
"Because it is. Imperial palettes value form over flavor. The scent suppressants in the Dome have their advantages but they strip food of its essential sensory enjoyment."
"Sounds like hell," Haechan says, face practically buried in his bowl. 
You set down your chopsticks. "It is. But for other reasons."
"Why did you leave?" He asks, looking up. "Weren't you going to be a Queen?"
Taeyong quietly mouths a no but you shake your head politely. 
"I left because I didn't want to die there," you say. "And because I wanted to find my brother."
That piques both their interests, confusion settling over Taeyong's sharp features. "I didn't know you had a brother."
"There's no record of him. When my mother and I were brought back from the north we thought he'd told them where to find us but he'd never been added to the Imperial registry. He was born outside the Dome, like me."
"And you thought he went back to the Old Zones?" Taeyong asks, ears forward. 
"There were rumors of a few fox Alphas who'd defected–" you pause, searching his face for any indication. "You never told me what happened to the pack you found me with."
Taeyong's eyes dart to you, looking a little guilty. "Hala will need to lay low for a while, but they'll be fine. We compensated them for damages, and to keep quiet."
"Was anyone hurt?" You ask, appetite gone.
"Superficial only. More insult than injury." Taeyong huffs. "From what I know of Kim Hongjoong he's probably already telling anyone who will listen they let us go."
You breathe a sigh of relief. "They were kind to me. Thank you."
"Do me a favor and don't tell anyone you met them," Taeyong says, tiredly. "They have a reputation."
"I swear it," you say. You wouldn't have anyone to disclose that information to, anyway.
You hesitate for a moment, staring at the cold bowl of seaweed soup in front of you. "Do you think you can help me find my brother?"
Taeyong stands up, beginning to clean. "I don't know. But I can put out some feelers."
You place a hand under his, stopping him from picking up another plate. His palm is rougher than you imagined another royal or omega's might be–clearly he'd seen his share of hard labor compared to you.
"I can't repay you, ever, for what you've done for me," you say. "But I'd like to try."
He doesn't move, hand shaking slightly over yours. 
"Let's start with clearing the table. And then I'll tell you what I need from you."
Tumblr media
You never thought you'd see this much natural color in the city. Certainly not in the heart of winter. The multi-story glass tower is filled to the brim with a jungle of flowers and leaves, tastefully trimmed and maintained.
Your heart swells as you inhale the humid air, rich with oxygen, the burble of water echoing through the chamber. 
"It's beautiful," you murmur, looking at the man beside you. Taeyong's mood seems heavy for such a fantastic setting. He crouches down to trail his fingers over the raised pond.
You gasp as orange and silver and white mouths break the surface, begging for a treat. He pours a handful of green pellets from an urn into your cupped hands, letting you feed the carp for the first time since you’d been a child. 
"Some of these are from our grandmother," he says.
"You knew her?" It was hard to break the habit of using past tense, unfortunately, with how often you'd heard others refer to her. 
"I wasn't able to spend much time with her growing up, but she remembered me at my coming-of-age ceremony."
Of course, you think. He'd been allowed to stay in the Dome until he came of age, and would have been forced to self-exile. Abdication was just a formality for your clan.
"She sent me a lotus, too, but I don't think it was ready to be transplanted," he says, sadly. 
"You're lucky. There's so many of us. I'm just glad she recognized you," you say, hand settling on his arm. He's dressed similarly to you–comfortable, black clothing in layers that are soft against your skin. 
"When's the last time you saw her?" He asks, ears turning toward you with the angle of his rust-colored head. 
"Two years ago, I think? Right before she closed the Palace." 
Time really had little meaning in an endless cycle of formal meetings and ceremonies, days filled with intricate arts training. You'd presented her with a gift—an embroidered veil that surely did not befit an Imperatrix but had delighted her all the same.
"She always had that snack—what was it called?" 
"Turkish delight," you say. "I used to have to serve as an attendant in her court. I'd sneak it out in my sleeves."
"I haven't found anything like it out here," Taeyong says, standing up straight. "If you manage to find some–"
"I'll see if I can," you nod. "If I go back."
He holds, hands in his pockets, clearly uncomfortable with what he has to say. You're used to the weighing of words in your company, everyone assuming you could not bear the burden.
"When I go back," you correct. 
He collapses a little with the break in tension. "It will be inevitable for us both. When we–"
You refuse to go down that line of conversation, deflecting. "You left because of your status, didn't you? Aren't you afraid they'll find out?"
Taeyong walks away rather than answer, leading you deeper into the indoor garden. Here, on the highest floors, the glass pinnacle of the tower has aged with scum on the outside and green algae blooms on the inside, but the light of the afternoon sun still melts through in a golden haze. 
Spores from the plants and pollen from the many flowers drift down like dust, a kind of dance in the movement of the recirculation of the air. 
You're fascinated by it as you follow him past pyramids of potted plants, trees with exposed, smooth roots spilling past containers and breaking through the white tile and black grout for the earth far below.
"What I'm going to tell you, only a few people in this circle know. I can't command you to keep it in your heart but I can ask you to," he says, stopping at the farthest glass wall. 
It faces north, and a break in the foliage has been made for a shrine of sorts–broken glass and painted tile cobbled together as a dais for a timeless, weathered stone statue. 
Other offerings have been placed at the feet of the effigy, remnants of a history where such things had meaning: half-burnt candles in burnished holders, faded paper flowers mingling with dead ones. 
You can't tell if the statue is a woman or man–not beneath layers of moss–but the figure holds an unbloomed lotus in their arms, a larger bloom as its base, their face in peaceful repose.
"I think, if things had been different, this marriage would have been arranged by our parents," he says. "I grew up being told I would be the Imperator someday, had my father not rebelled. You would have been the natural choice for my mate."
"I understand," you say.
You knew woefully little about his parents outside of his father being one of the Two Tigers. The fight between the four eldest sons for succession was why the last Imperator had passed down the decree that no second generation child would rule, recusing his own offspring entirely.  
All hopes had shifted to the third generation, strategic alliances formed before birth between the other clancorps and their lesser branches. It was the reason the Imperatrix had rallied her daughters to protect their children when it became clear their fathers would eat them alive.
You wait for him to continue, heart racing in your chest. 
"I was the first and only son after my sisters' births stripped my mother of her health. My father knew it would kill her but he demanded an Alpha son," he says.
It's difficult to know how to comfort him, afraid that touching him will break the calm.
"From what I know, your mother was someone who inspired others. The omegas still hold vigil for her in the Dome every year,” you say.
He nods, face falling. "My sisters aren’t designated but were able to remain in the Dome. I rely on them for what I know."
His shoulders slump. 
"I was born in the Palace, but I grew up like you–out there."
That's a surprise to you. "During the war?"
"Yes. Practically raised in it," Taeyong says. “I didn’t return until the surrender. And then I left just as quickly.”
“Is that how you managed to hide?”
He nods, solemn.
“They had an early start, trying to correct me. Ten years of genetic therapy and surgery, but I'm still who I am. I know I should have told you before you agreed to this, but I had to make a choice–" 
You place a hand on his arm, quieting him mid-apology. Fat tears slide down your face. 
"They tried to fix me, too," you murmur. "I understand."
He turns to you, sweat beading heavily on his skin. This close and quiet you can note how he looks without the distance of viewing him through a screen or the noise of Alphas around you.
In the warm light you can see the gradient of amber to gold in his irises, the way his pupils dilate as he brushes your face with his thumb. You fixate on the tiny scar below his right eye—another point of commonality.
"I won't be able to give you anything you deserve. You'll be in danger more than you will be safe," he says. "But I can at least offer you equality in our partnership."
You lean into his ministration, a little dazed. It's not just the heat settling in that has you soft. Like you, no matter how fully grown, he has a kind of innocence that can't be snuffed out. Something to be exploited or used in your understanding, a weakness.
But it's not that, you know. It's kindness.
Only a true leader would value that above all else. Regardless of designation, regardless of what biologically compels you, a part of you feels like you've found your match.
"Do you believe in fate?" you ask.
Taeyong doesn't have an answer, too preoccupied with stroking your cheek, fingers drifting down to your scarred neck. You have to blink to right your thoughts, suddenly infused with warmth.
"Can I ask a favor of you?" you ask.
"Anything," he breathes, eyes on your lips. 
You pull away, your fox protesting the removal of touch. Later, you think.
The sanctity of this place is apparent in its care, formality finding you as you hunch down to clear a bowl of sand of the unburnt remains of incense.
You find more beside it, along with a spark flint–something you'd become accustomed to in your time in the mountains. You carefully light a candle at the base of the statue, using it to ignite the ends of two sticks of incense.
After a moment, you hand your cousin the other.
In the low light his expression is neutral, but you can scent his uncertainty. 
"I promise you, from now until forever, to share your burdens and your secrets," you say, recalling the words, or at least a version of them. "A life for a life."
He doesn't speak, faltering. 
"I can't," he says, holding the stick away from him. "You don't know what you're asking."
"I don't want you to promise me anything," you say, feeling tears well up in your eyes just the same. "I know you can't. But please let me help you. You didn't hesitate to help me."
He breathes out shakily, kneeling down beside you. Together you place the incense at the feet of the unknown deity, as if in perfect synchronization.
"Under the eyes of heaven," he repeats, taking your hand. His palm is clammy against your own. "A life for a life."
You brush the tears from your face, turning to him to offer a shaky smile, but are enveloped in a warm embrace instead. Taeyong sets his chin on your shoulder, furred ear against yours. 
"Thank you," he says, voice a rumble. 
"I think that's how the vows go," you answer, humming your assurance. "It's better than signing some documents."
His laugh is thick with emotion. "You'll still have to sign some documents."
You burrow into his chest, scenting him, skin tingling with the phantom of your winter coat. He's musky and sweet at the same time, and you find yourself nuzzling into his throat until he's dropped to the ground, sidling away from your claws running over his wide chest and snagging on the knit. 
"I'd rather you marked me," you say, sniffing at the wound on his ear. "It doesn't hurt does it?" 
Whatever he's going to say in response twists into a strangled cry as you lick the scabbed fur, hands curling against his neck and back. Somehow you've climbed into his lap, smothering his face against your chest. You feel hot breath through the fabric, your nipples plucking against it. You let out a small moan of relief.
He extricates himself quickly.
"This is a little too fast," he laughs with a faint hint of terror. "We can discuss this arrangement after we've broken our heats." 
"I wish you'd help me through it," you whine, oozing back up his spread knees. "You don't wish to mate me?" 
Taeyong's mouth is agape, throat bobbing as you lean in. You've been thinking about this since you'd tasted his blood–how good it would be to draw it from his lip or tongue when you shared your first kiss. 
"I . . . I really don't think that's a good idea," he says, trying again to back away and colliding with one of the garden benches. His tail swishes in agitation across the tile, brushing dead leaves aside.
"But you can, right?" you ask, cocking your head.
He laughs in relief at your naked curiosity. "I would think that a question you asked before you agreed to marry me."
It isn't a no, you think, body throbbing with need.
He offers you his hand, beginning to stand up. "Let's both go down for a check-in–"
You don't follow, catching his wiry arm and locking your teeth around his wrist. He freezes, waiting in terror for you to embed your fangs in, but you're in control, you think, peering up at him through your lashes as you softly lick his pulse point. 
It's a little magic trick in itself–the man in front of you is suddenly overtaken with ecstasy, head thrown back as his knees hit the floor. You rub and lap and scrape your canines over the gland, replacing the target of your attention with his neck once he's pliable and no longer resistant. 
Touching him, wrapping around him again, feels like heaven. He's lean and hard beneath you but also tender as a baby kit, ears soothed by the gentle carding of your fingers through his hair.
You want to make his fox keen for you the way yours does, want to bend your neck and have him return the favor with his own tongue and teeth. His eyes flutter as you press a kiss to his closed, pink lips, coming back to reality by slow degrees.
"Please, don't–" he says weakly, hands absently reaching beneath your sweater–his sweater–to brush soft circles into your bare skin. You sit up to guide him to the base of your spine, purring when he strokes above your tail. 
"I want my first time to be with you," you say. "Isn't that only right?"
"Not here, no, not now," he says, but you feel his hips unconsciously twitch upwards, his mouth ghosting your temple. "We'll take care of you, I promise." 
"But I want you," you murmur. "You feel safe to me."
"No," he says in your ear, exhaling shakily. "I can't." 
"Please," you beg, grinding down on the soft bulge in his pants, distantly aware of the growing slipperiness between your own thighs. "Please help me."
Somewhere in the floors below you hear a distant crash, followed by a horrifying roar. It shakes you both out of your stupor long enough for Taeyong to grip you by the waist and push you off of him.
"Let's get you back to medical–" Taeyong says, right before you bite him for the second time. 
This time it's with malice.

You and Changmin had been relaxing in your room for a while now. He’s been so intent on getting you to watch Chucky for at least an hour now. Somehow the whole group of you got off for rehearsal today. You knew most of the others had plans of some sort. Chanhee and Younghoon left early this morning. Something about a day out with other trainee friends in a different company. Sangyeon still went to the company today. You didn’t understand why he would still go when this was a once-in-a-blue-moon chance to take off.
“Come on,” Changmin whines, “just the first two movies. It won’t take up your full day.”
“Changmin-” you were about to tease him before Jaehyun came in.
He throws himself on top of you both on your bed. You let out a grunt of sorts at the impact while Changmin just giggles.
“Sorry, Min, I’m stealing her.” he informs the younger.
Changmin sighs, “Leaving without me?”
“You’re so dramatic,” you tease, “I’m sure we won’t be gone all day. I’ll watch only the first Chucky with you when I get back.”
You see his face light up, “You can’t be running late now, can you? Jae Hyung, get off of us!”
Jaehyun laughs and moves slowly, “There’s really no time frame for us-”
“No, no, no, you must be off!” he insists in a dramatic tone.
You usher both the boys out of the room so you can get changed and ready to go out for the day. He didn’t give you much information about where you were off to. You just hoped for the best and went with something casual. You throw on a pair of blue jeans with a white tank top, tossing a pale dusty green cardigan over it. The best option was to wear some white sneakers just in case you were walking to wherever it is you’re going. Finally, you put on a few pearly necklaces and a black cross-body purse. You’d slowly been getting better at this whole “street fashion” thing, and you’re pretty proud of the ensemble. You left your hair down but made sure to put a few hair ties in your bag just in the off chance you needed them.
The moment you step out of your bedroom, Changmin practically pushes you and Jaehyun out the door.  You hadn’t eaten much, just some cereal you managed to snag out of Jacob’s room without his knowledge. Jaehyun tries to deter the younger, but it’s useless. He keeps rambling that the sooner you leave, the sooner he can watch Chucky with you.
“Well,” Jaehyun sighs as you start your walk, “we can stop at a cafe or something if you’re terribly hungry.”
“It’s okay, Oppa. Where are we off to?”
“We’re meeting a few of my friends. I trained with them for a short while.”
“Friends?”
“Hyunggu is your age. He’s chill, I promise. You might know him better by his stage name, though.” he comments while locking up the house behind you.
“Oh, why do you say that?”
“Kino, Pentagon’s Kino. He’s a good friend of mine. He said that Yuto and Wooseok would be joining him after their recording sessions, too.” he adds as if it’s nothing at all.
“Since when have you known celebrities?” you tease, “You’re just Jaehyun Oppa.”
He grabs you and hugs you tight against his body, shaking you lightly to show his playful annoyance with your comment. You just laugh and poke at his side, effectively making him release you from his hold. The walk to Cube Entertainment isn’t horrible; you’re grateful you thought ahead and wore sneakers. As you walk, he starts to fill you in on how he knows Kino. They had gone to the same school for a while and didn’t realize until later down the road that they had both become trainees. Since then, they have formed a bond through it. Later on, he was introduced to the other members of Pentagon. Though, he remains to be closest to Kino.
Cube Entertainment’s building is massive in comparison to your small one. You’re sure if you had been signed to this company, you’d be lost on a daily basis. Jaehyun lets you know that he’s sending a text to the other to alert your arrival. Standing next to one of the entrances, Jaehyun tells you that Kino should be coming to let you inside at any moment. Just as you are going to voice your comment to Jaehyun, a young man with dusty purple-pink hair comes through the front doorway. You immediately recognize him as Kino. It’s evident they’re about to have a comeback considering that the last picture uploaded of him pictured him with black hair.
“Come on in before someone gets a picture of me.” he tells you, “My manager would have my head if I accidentally spoiled a comeback because someone saw my hair.”
Jaehyun chuckles before gesturing for you to enter before him. Kino immediately takes you up to the fifth floor, where his small studio is. He had just been given it when he began participating in writing the lyrics for the upcoming album. Although the space is small, it’s not cramped. It’s comfortable enough that you don’t feel like you’re going to be breathing down either Kino or Jaehyun’s neck at any given moment. Kino sits in his desk chair, spinning it around to save and close his projects to give you and your groupmate his undivided attention. You cautiously sit on the small couch adjacent to his desk while Jaehyun flops down in the beanbag chair in the corner of the room. If you had any hope of easing into a friendship with the already-debuted idol, that idea flies out the window when he immediately drops a giant question on you.
“So, you’re dating, right?”
You nearly choke on the air hearing the question. At first, you hope that you misheard him or the question got lost in translation. Then hearing how Jaehyun reacted, there was no doubt you heard him right.
“Hyunggu,” Jaehyun says with a warning tone.
“What, Hyung? You’ve never told me about a girl until her. Something has to be up.”
“We’re debuting together. That’s all there is to it. We’re in a group together, and we’re roommates with Changmin.”
“I’m just saying- wait, debuting together? And she’s living with you guys? What’s your company planning?”
“I’ve been trying to figure that out too.” you admit, “Not that I’m complaining much. I’ll take living with stinky teenage boys over bitchy whiny girls any day.”
Hyunggu laughs loudly before pointing at the older boy in the room, “She really gets to walk all over you guys at the dorm, huh? You told me she’s the same age as me, and yet you won’t call her out for being rude.”
“I deserve it.” Jaehyun huffs.
Hyunggu doesn’t question Jaehyun further about what his comment might mean. You’re probably safe assuming that Jaehyun would rant to him about you when he still wasn’t being nice to you. The two of them begin to catch up on things, and you just sit quietly off to the side and listen to them. You don’t have much to add to the conversation at this point.
That’s when a knock sounds on the studio door. It pops open a moment later, and a girl pops her head through. She has a bright smile spread across her lips, and her chocolate brown hair flows long over her shoulder. Hyunggu lets out a playfully annoyed sigh but lets a smile grace his lips as well.
“What’s up, Soyeon?”
“Nothing, Hyunggu!” she enthuses, “I just finished my monthly evaluation and wanted to see if you had any new productions in the works.”
Hyunggu jerks his chin up, inviting the girl in. She sits down right beside you and smiles at you. You may be blinded by how bright her smile is.
“I’m Soyeon. What’s your name, miss?” she beams.
“Oh, I’m y/n.” you speak meekly, “You don’t have to worry about being formal with me. I’m assuming you’re also a 98-liner since you aren’t using honorifics with Hyunggu.”
“Mhm! Are you training here too? Wait, why is Jaehyun Oppa here too? Hyunggu, you have friends?” she rambles.
“Soyeon, chill out.” Hyunggu chuckles, “She’s still learning Korean. You’ll overwhelm her.”
“Where are you from?”
“I grew up in LA.” you explain, “I’m going to debut in a group with Jaehyun Oppa at the end of the year.”
Soyeon seems like she’s about to bombard you with about fifty more questions, but the door opens again. Two very tall young men walk in. You know their faces. How could you not when they’re known everywhere? Yuto has electric blue hair making him stand out just as much as Hyunggu does with his purple hair. Wooseok hair doesn’t stand out too boldly, having his natural black color, but his height definitely makes him stand out as always. Yuto leans over and ruffles Soyeon’s hair; she promptly smacks his hand away.
“There’s not enough fucking space in here for all of us.” Wooseok grumbles.
Yuto slaps his shoulder lightly, “Couldn’t you have waited like ten minutes before cursing in front of someone new?”
“What? She probably gets it! Being an idol is fucking stressful.”
You chuckle and scoot over a little bit to allow someone else to join you on the small couch. Soyeon moves over as well, and Yuto takes the sliver of empty space there is. Wooseok opts to throw himself down on top of Jaehyun, earning a groan of annoyance from his older friend.
You find yourself falling into a rhythm with your newly found friends. By the end of your time hanging out, you feel like you’ve known the four new people your entire life. You don’t know where this friendship will lead, but you’re so happy that Jaehyun introduced you to these people. You don’t feel as alone. You have people to talk with outside your group members and the annoying girls you used to train with. Everything is slowly starting to fall into place, and you’re beyond excited to see where life will take you next.

oh I really like your wooseok fluffy writing and perhaps a college fic would be cute? 🥺
good luck on your big project!! 🥰
Tumblr media
Pairing: CollegeStudent!Wooseok x CollegeStudent!Reader
Word count: 1k words
Warnings: None!! Just a bunch of fluff
Genre: fluff, college AU, quarantine AU, boy next door AU
Plot: Ever since the whole country and the whole world started the quarantine due to the pandemic, you've grown pretty close to the boy living next door. Being him the only human being around and down to drink some beer or coffee sitting in your respective balconies sharing your thoughts and worries became a pretty beautiful habit. And now that quarantine is over it will be even better.
A/N: I'm sorry for taking so long to post this 🥺 but I really hope you enjoy it ❤❤ Thank you so much for your support 🥺❤🙏
Taglist -> @ailoveyuta @soobin-chois (let me know if you want to be added to the taglist!!)
🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸🌸
“Do you really think quarantine will be over that easily??” Wooseok asked as he sipped on his beer before placing it on the small table in his balcony. “Honestly, I have no idea, but I really hope so.” You answered, sipping on your beer as well. “Wow, you sound like you really want it to be over, am I that boring??” Wooseok joked, acting as if he was hurt by your behavior. You couldn’t help the laugh escaping your lips at his sudden comment. “Come on, I want this to be over so you can finally invite me to that hamburger you promised.” You said laughing, letting him know that you haven’t forgotten about that little promise he made you a few weeks ago of inviting you to a good hamburger once all the pandemic and quarantine thing was over. “You really have a good memory, huh?” Wooseok said, nervously scratching the back of his necha and letting out a nervous and shy laugh. “I never forget about food promises.” You said, raising your beer to take a last sip.
Days and nights went by and both of you kept sitting every single day on those small chairs you both had in your balconies. Sometimes sharing a beer, sometimes a bottle of soju when there was stress and hurtful moments of the day one of you wanted to drown in that soju bottle, sometimes a cup of coffee as you both admired the beautiful sky of sunset. Sometimes you shared your worries, sometimes your dreams and some other times you both shared memories and funny experiences you had. Sometimes you even told each other the lesson you had to study for an upcoming exam to make sure you studied enough. He even baked you a cake for your birthday and even though it didn’t turn out like a masterchef cake, his intention was what really mattered. Little by little that boy that moved next to you and that you had no idea about who he was, suddenly became your best friend, partner in crime, the only one there to listen to your ramblings and thoughts when nobody else could. Suddenly it felt like both of you became a single person, sharing experiences and sharing the same thoughts and dreams of becoming someone important someday in the future. And soon, both of you found yourselves being deeply in love with each other. 
**
You decided to turn on the TV while you were eating lunch. You haven’t turned it on for the past few weeks. You knew the only thing they would be talking about was about the pandemic, giving more and more bad news, making your anxiety and depression for being in a lock down grow more and more as you heard all that bad news. And if you decided to change the channel to something more entertaining you knew all you would find was shitty reality shows that didn’t really catch your attention. But still today you decided to turn it on just in case they said something about the end of the quarantine as everyone in the town was rumoring. 
You placed your bowl of ramen on the living room table near the window just in case Wooseok called you like some days to eat with you. You grabbed the control remote of the TV but before you could even turn it on, Wooseok’s voice full of excitement prevented you from doing all of the things you just planned to do. 
As soon as you heard his voice, you peeked your head out of the window to face a happy boy filled with happiness. “What’s wrong with you?” You asked frowning, not really understanding the sudden behavior of the tall boy. “You really haven’t heard the news today or seen them on your phone??” Wooseok said, happiness overflowing him. You gave him an even more confused look. “Why would I have to see the news?” You asked. He perfectly knew your thoughts about news these days and how you prefer being on the balcony talking with him rather than sitting in front of the TV for hours just watching and hearing misery. “(Y/N) today is the last day of the lock down!! From tomorrow on we can go out!!” The tall boy said, jumping out of happiness. The moment you heard him say that you remembered the conversation you had last night and he was right. Today was the day the government would be announcing if the quarantine period was over or not. And apparently is finally over. 
“So, when are you inviting me to that hamburger??” You joked, making Wooseok change his expression. “Come on, we just found out we can finally hug each other and walk around town and the first thing you think about is me inviting you to a hamburger?” Wooseok said. You had to admit you were slightly shocked by his first intentions and thoughts about the ending of the quaranting. You knew he might have feelings for you the same way you did for him, after all in the past few weeks all you’ve both been doing was flirting. But you never thought he would be so open to tell you about his feelings. “Well, a promise is a promise and food is food.” You said making the boy laugh. “Then how about tonight?” He said, leaning on the balcony railing waiting for your answer. “Sounds like a great plan.” You said, giving him the brightest and biggest smile you could make.  You never thought someone who was a complete stranger would ever become so important to you. You never thought you would fall for someone the way you fell for Wooseok. And you never thought you would ever be in love with someone the way you loved Wooseok. But after all, quarantine changed everyone. Some people for good and some others for bad, and if you had to be completely honest, you were so grateful and happy that you both were able to find this quarantine love.

Three Strikes, You're Out
Summary: Maybe third time’s not the charm, after all. 
Oneshot
Fluff and Brother’s best friend au
Word Count: 1,861
Wooseok X Female! Reader 
[Featuring: Older Brother! Shinwon and mentions: Kino]
Requested: may I have a request for jung wooseok's fluffy and heart fluttering imagine where reader is his best friend's little sister and reader has tried to confess to him over and over again, but wooseok kept rejecting them as he thought reader is like a little sister to him, but one day, he realized he loves them too and is jealous when another guys is around them?
------
The first time I asked Wooseok out, we were playing video games in his room. After my brother, Shinwon left to get us something to drink. When I let it slip, “I like you,” he looks over at me and asks, “As a friend?” I nod, “But a little more.” He smiles, “Well, I’ve always viewed you as my little sister, so I understand that.” I nod and softly say, “Yeah, I view you as a uh brother too.” Great, just great did not go as planned. He definitely did not catch what I mean. And not only that, but he views me as a sister too. I guess I need some ice for that sting. Shinwon coincidently comes back with ice in our diet cokes. 
------
The next time I confessed, I decided to be more literal, hoping that would help. Second is the best. I repeat to myself, working up my courage as I reach the practice studio and watch as Wooseok tries to nail a move. I shake off my nerves while I wait for him to land it to come in, and I wave to him in the mirror. He waves back and says, “Hey! I didn’t expect to see you here today!” I smile, “Well, um... I have something important to tell you.” He nods, spinning around to face me, and gestures for me to go on, “I like you, and not in a sibling light. I like you, Wooseok.” He raises his hand to his neck and scratches it, “Oh,...” He gathers his thoughts for a moment and tells me, “Well, um,... I like you as a sibling. You’re just Shinwon’s little sister to me.” I nod, “It’s okay. Well, I just thought I should tell you.” He nods, and he gestures that he should get back to dancing, and I nod. I wave goodbye and take my leave. My first thought was that that saying did not apply here. 
Before I make it down to the cafe at the bottom of Cube, I’m going over Wooseok’s words in my head. It hits me, ‘Shinwon’s little sister’, he must have said something! Probably, ‘if I ever find out one of you has the hots for my sister, I’ll scream’. Although, I guess it’s not really a threat, considering he screams a lot. But I turn around and head up to his studio. Thinking it had to be with a warning from Shinwon, I decided it's best to tell him about my feelings I have for his best friend. I knock on the studio door, “Who is it?” “The pizza delivery man–” “Already!?” “No! It’s your little sister, nitwit.” He opens the door with a pout, “I didn’t order pizza anyways.” I laugh, “I figured. You're more of a burger person anyway.” He laughs, “Whatcha need?” I gulp, “Well, this is kind of important.” He nods and gestures for me to sit on the couch across from his chair. I sit down, and when he settles, I tell him, “I really like Wooseok. Would you approve?” He thinks it over, furrowing his brows together. Before he shrugs, “It is a little weird, but if he makes you happy, who am I to get in the way of that? I know I’m your big brother and all. And that's my best friend, but I respect your decision, kiddo.” I grin, “Thanks, Wonnie.” He smiles and ruffles my hair, “Now, you wanna go out and get some burgers with Seokie and me?” I glare, “Too soon.” He laughs, “Good thing I was ordering in any way.” 
------
Okay, third time's the charm, maybe? Maybe with Shinwon’s blessings and acceptance, Wooseok changed his mind. I spend the day playing cards with Shinwon when Wooseok comes downstairs. Shinwon nudges me, ‘Go get 'em!’ I nod and follow him outside, cursing those long legs of his. I go, “Hey! Wooseok!” He smiles, “Yeah?” I smile and put my heart on the line again by asking him out on a date. And he shakes his head before the words come out of his mouth, “No, I just view you as my little sister. I’m sorry.” How wrong I was, thinking that would change his mind. I nod, “I should have taken your answer the first time. I’m sorry.” He nods, “I understand. If you guys need me, I’ll be in the studio.” I nod and head back into the house and plant myself on my chair and rest my head on the table with a ‘thunk’. Shinwon asks, “You okay?” I shake my head and groan out a ‘no’. Shinwon reaches over and combs his fingers through my hair, “He rejected you?” I nod, “Damn. He never said he didn’t like you that way. If I had known I would have told you to save you some heartbreak.” I groan, “Yeah.” He snaps his fingers, and I look up from my view at the wooden table, “What?” He smiles, “Does ice cream and comedy sound good to you?” I nod, “This is why you’re the best brother.” He grins and drags me over to the couch, leaving the cards strewn across the table. I throw myself on top of it, and he comes back with a big tub of ice cream and two scoops. I squint at him, and he pulls out a mini mint choco pint from behind his back. I nod and take the big container possessively, which causes him to laugh.
------
It’s been about a month since my last rejection. And while I still hang out with the two and act like nothing is wrong, my heart aches badly. When the whole friend group of theirs decides to throw a party at Jinho’s dorm, I decide this is the perfect way to get over Wooseok. I put on my best outfit and head over to their dorm. By the time I reach the dorm, people are piling in. I squeeze through, noticing there are more people in this dormitory than there is room in this place. With no sight of either of the two, I’m trying to avoid for the rest of the night. I find my way through the crowd. I spot one of their mutual friends, Hyunggu. Who is dancing in the middle of it all. 
He drops down low and slowly brings himself back up, popping the whole way. And I cheer among the crowd and watch as he taps someone into the circle. He makes his way out of the middle as people shower him with compliments, and I follow him out to do so. “I know you do it for a living. And all but, wow, your dances are just massively impressive.” He grins, “Thank you. You’re (Y/n), Shinwon’s little sister, right?” I sigh, “Don’t remind me…” He tilts his head, “But that means you’re not just beautiful, but you’re funny too.” I blush, “I um, I guess?” He grins, “I’ve heard a lot about you.” I smile, “All good things?” He nods, “But I always wanted to put a face to your name. You’re prettier than I could have ever imagined.” I blush, and he holds out his hand, “Would you care to dance?” I shrug, “I’ll warn you, Shinwon got the dancing skills, though.” He pulls me close to him and whispers, “Anything can be learned” If I wasn’t red before, I know I’m on fire now. He pulls me over to the dance floor and spins me around. 
I can’t seem to get enough of his company, and that’s when I spot him. He’s standing next to Shinwon behind the island, talking with him but staring right at me. As if he sees right through me, I gulp to myself. But it’s obvious in the way my motions still a bit that I’m not entranced in the world the two of us made any longer. He spins us around when he sees exactly what, or rather who stole my attention. “I heard something from Shinwon about what happened.” I groan, “That’s lovely.” He giggles, “I don’t think it’s me who you wish to dance with, am I right?” I gulp down another breath, “But,... I want to dance with you cause you’re fun and uh,...” He nods, “Your heart belongs to other places, doesn’t it?” I nod, “Yeah,...” He gives me a brilliant smile, “Well, just your luck. Mr. Jealousy is steamrolling to us right now. It was fun to dance with you and finally meet you, darling. If you ever tire of him, you know how to find me~” Before I can say a word, he’s gone, and there in his place stands Wooseok. 
He doesn’t give me time to comprehend the whole situation before he’s pulling me away to a quieter place. Which happens to be outside on the patio, “I think I may have realized it too late.” He mutters mostly to himself, but I catch it all. “What? I don’t get what you mean.” He readjusts, and like the second time he rejected me, he scratches the back of his neck. “That I don’t see you in a sister light at all. I don’t know why it took until I saw Hyunggu dancing with you to realize it. But I realized I want to be the one who gets to dance with you. And the thought that you would love someone else and that I would lose you when I had more than one chance,...” I squint at him, “Why should I believe you?” He looks up at the patio light before looking into my eyes, “Because Shinwon almost hit me over the head with a frying pan for having the audacity to realize my feelings for you after breaking your heart.” I laugh a little, “I believe that.” He smiles, “So what do you say? Would you be willing to give me a chance? I know I tossed three chances away, but maybe the fourth time is the actual charm?” I shrug, “We’ll see by the fourth date.” I smile at him, and it hits me, “Wait! You know you rejected me three times!?” He nods, “Yeah,...” I groan, and he smiles and holds out his hand, “I’ll make it up to you. But first, can you get Shinwon to stop ogling us with a cast iron in hand.” I look over, and lo and behold it’s my brother in the window holding a skillet. 
I wave, and he gives me a thumbs-up, and I nod. He smiles and walks away, “You didn’t go after me because Shinwon was about to kill you. Did you?” He shakes his head, “The worst thing that man can do is scream. And I’ve been best friends with him for years, so I highly doubt he’d kill me now. I know too much.” I nod, “Me too,... Too much.” We laugh, and he holds out his hand for me, and I grab it. 
And yeah, the first four dates went above and beyond expectations, Wooseok making sure of it. With three strikes, three batters on the plates, he gave it all he got and made a grand slam.

⌕ basic info . . .
kim wooseok (김우석) ; october 27th, 1996 ; scorpio ; mono, single and uninterested ; bisexual ; switch ; he / him ; introvert that believes he's extroverted ; idol au (undecided.)
KIM WOOSEOK had an interesting, yet messy life. but let's back start by back tracking a little. he was born in daedeok-gu, daejeon, south korea. he was casted when he was working at a part time job. if you told him 5-6 years ago that he would be living this type of life, he would have laughed in your face. as cliché as it sounds, he decided to join the entertainment industry after seeing his mother cry. he started with up10tion, went to produce, and then he finished with x1. it was eventful, but it was worth and he's glad that he's had the experience. wooseok is very passionate about the thing he likes and enjoys, and will not be afraid to show it. very demanding and sassy, but he means well. also a cat lover even though he's allergic to them.
an avid lover of — cats, drawing comics, playing video games, watching movies, drawing, reading poetry, discovering restaurants, chicken feet, his pomeranian maison ddadda and a bichon frise maison ppoppo.
an avid hater of — scandals, accusations, drama, plagiarism, lack of sleep (even though he barely sleeps.), loud noises, bad weather, neon colours.

💜💘✏️
ah, thank you !!!
💜: I'll do three more of my fav lines!
The bell on the inside of the door jingled merrily at him. He’d glared back with sparks in his eyes and then marched up the street, determined to take life by its neck and throttle it. --a woh fic, "all the things that you had lost…will find their way to you"
In a way Wooseok couldn’t quite place, he felt marked, wanted, like Hyunggu had pointed at him and said we may not be together anymore, but you’re still my favorite boy. --a ptg fic, "that's my boy (violet)"
“She thought they were cursed, you know? I wanted to laugh. You wouldn’t curse a fly, unless it were to get to my brother. Or me. Even your skeletal fish are kind.” --a tgcf fic, "i will not change for the rest of my life (desperation)"
💘:
Fav AU: I like modern/contemporary AUs, specifically college AUs. bonus points if there's magic involved
Least fav AU: uhhhh honestly I think anything can be done well LOL
✏️:
Reading my own writing back. I'm a little bit of a narcissist in that way, haha, but I always say that if you're going to be a writer, you have to be at least a little bit in love with yourself. Nobody's going to cheer yourself on at your lowest points except you

Critique Album: NewJeans — Get Up
Tumblr media
L'an dernier, NewJeans s'est fait déjà remarqué en débutant avec un EP très ambitieux et un des meilleurs single de ce début de décennie.
En effet, Min Hee-jin a été très critique de l'état actuel de la K-pop lors d'une interview pour Cine21 donné l'hiver dernier :
"Il y a quelques facteurs sur lesquels je mets l'accent, comme la progression mélodique ou le style vocal. Personnellement, je ne suis pas du tout fan de la façon dont la K-pop gère généralement la progression mélodique ou les styles vocaux. La nécessité d'inclure une partie aiguë, des sections de rap maladroites et soudaines, le fait que tout le monde sonne de la même manière, etc. Bien sûr, je respecte ceux qui aiment ce style. Mais je n'aime pas ces éléments et je voulais un monde dans lequel la musique sans ces éléments puisse exister. J'ai commencé à diriger l'ensemble de la production afin de pouvoir contrôler ces détails."
C'est une position qu'elle a toujours tenue, même dans ses années passées à la S.M Entertainment. Min Hee-jin a toujours été une outsider et critique de l'industrie de la K-pop. Que ce soit à travers son art (le clip vidéo et le concept de "Dumb Dumb" de Red Velvet est une critique à la fois acerbe et glauque du côté capitaliste et impersonnel de l'industrie de la K-pop) ; ou bien même l'interview très controversé qu'elle a donné en ce début d'année qui lui a valut les critiques des fans de K-pop. Mais est-il scandaleux de lui donner raison sur ce point lorsqu'on s'intéresse un minimum à la musique de niche ou moins pour laquelle elle affiche publiquement sa préférence ? C'est une personne qui a un pied dans l'industrie depuis plus de 20 ans et qui la connaît parfaitement au point d'avoir managé et mentoré quatre des groupes les plus importants de leurs époques (SHINee, f(x), Red Velvet et NewJeans). Puis la K-pop n'a jamais prétendue être est une industrie portée sur la qualité de ses albums, subsiste surtout grâce à la qualité de ses singles.
Avant même le début de sa promotion, Get Up était annoncé comme étant un opus très différent de son prédécesseur. Une évolution qui se ressent notamment grâce à la présence de la chanteuse danoise Erika de Casier tout au long de l'album, très peu connue du grand public mais pourtant réputée par la presse critique pour un son aérien mêlant influences lo-fi, UK-garage et R&B des années 2000.
Quelque chose de très présent dans la proposition de Min Hee-jin et Kim Ki-hyun, fondateur de BANA et ancien A&R de S.M Entertainment, c'est la volonté de proposer une autre manière de produire de la K-pop. De manière beaucoup plus artisanale. Moins dans le pré-formaté et plus dans l'authenticité. Et Get Up en est la parfaite représentation. C’est à dire qu’elles ont leur socle de producteurs et réalisateurs titres qui proposent ce qu’ils font de mieux. Une cohérence et une structure narrative dans chaque ère, très simple mais superbement exécutée. Comme ce que faisait Red Velvet et f(x) à une certaine époque. Le groupe s'épaule de ses collaborateurs réguliers : Park Jin-su (signé chez BANA), 250 mais est également fait évoluer leurs sonorités avec des nouveaux compositeurs comme Freekind, Frankie Scosa ou encore le duo norvégien Smerz. L'EP compte un bon nombre de pistes très solides. Le fantastique et addictif "Super Shy" qui compte parmi les meilleures d'entre elles avec de légères inspirations Jersey Club (déjà présentes pour "Cookie" mais légèrement accentuées pour ce titre) et une boucle qui nous rappelle la bande originale de Ridge Racer Type 4 composée par Kohta Takahashi. Mais il y a aussi le très original "ETA" avec son refrain très entrainant, "New Jeans" qui sample l’emblématique "So Fresh and So Clean" du groupe légendaire Outkast et le très envoutant "Cool With You" avec son clip réalisé par le très talentueux Shin Wooseok qui met en scène le charismatique Tony Leung qui donne la réplique à l'actrice coréenne HyoYeon Jung.
Une fois de plus, NewJeans tape dans le mille. Get Up est un EP très satisfaisant a écouter. Et qu’Erika de Casier joue un grand rôle sur l’équilibrage de la qualité de celui-ci.
