𝟎𝟏.  𝐍𝐎𝐑𝐓𝐇  / from MIDO to HYUNWOO.

every time he smiles, she’s brought back to the nights she spent underneath him. that’s all it takes. just one beaming smile and she remembers how his hair used to fall in her face, and how her fingertips would delicately comb them back into place; she recalls the scent of the cologne that lingered on her skin for the entirety of the next day; she reminisces on how thrilling it was to unlock a whole new side of him, peeling back each layer feeling as though she was entangled in someone new every time. she paints all of it in hues of rose and champagne now, but in truth, those wild-hearted encounters occurred during a time period that she longs to forget; one that’s since colored her point of view and altered who she is as a human-being. seeing him brings on a lot of volatile emotions, and though many of them are wonderful, they’re all shrouded by the somber blues and grays that once dominated her soul. for a second, she wonders if all of this is just too much for her to handle right now, and now that she’s seated before him, and left to relive each rosy vision from their past, she’s tempted to run away; to claim that all of this was a mistake; to wish him well, then kindly excuse herself so she doesn’t fuck anything up anymore.

she feels emotionally flooded, like she’s trapped on a lifeboat during a storm that she’s creating in her mind. suddenly, though, the ever-changing tides and torrential rainfall cease; the bright, high-pitched clink of glass and cutlery coming together bringing her back to reality. their server just delivered their beverages, and she catchers herself gazing ( more like staring ) at the sharp contours of his face bathed in candlelight—battling a blush that threatens to stain her cheeks and expose her previous wonderings. she takes a deep breath and reaches for her glass, then takes a long sip; hoping the merlot she ordered helps take the edge off a little bit.

once she sets her drink back down, she clears her throat and timidly looks over to him again; a convivial grin tugging at the corners of her lips. “thanks for agreeing to come out tonight,” mido begins, improperly resting her elbows on the table before them so she can lean into him more.

“i hope that coming here isn’t, like, too much... i know it’s a little over-the-top, but i wanted to treat you to something special. i mean, it’s just been so long since we’ve talked...” she trails off, pursing her lips together in thought for a second before continuing. “tell me, did you think i got abducted by aliens? did you not think of me at all? did you think i flew away on a witch’s broom to a faraway land?” her tone is playful and soft, her eyes locked on him all the while. “i can tell you that i thought about you every once in awhile, especially whenever i listened to your music. you’ve come out with some gems, by-the-way. just.. so, so good.”

CHARACTER INFO.

character name: ( 황미도 ) hwang mido. stage name: ( 루체 ) luce. age: 24, born 1997.02.21. zodiac sign: ☼ pisces, ☾ leo, ↑ gemini. group/band/position: solo_04.

info links or quick points about your character: bio & profile.

001.  when creating hwang mido, i took a lot of inspiration from a girl i once worked with for a winter. though we didn’t know one another for long, i’ve always been really inspired by her, and she’s genuinely one of the coolest people i’ve ever met. aside from that, there’s a dash of luna lovegood personality-wise, and the rest is mostly just me filling in any gaps. she’s a dreamy mystic who loves talking to people, asking weird questions, ignoring boundaries, and living her witchy fantasy. she’s a muse i’m really excited to watch grow during the writing / plotting process!

002.  she grew up in gurye county, south korea, but spent a lot of time in namwon, too, so she considers both of them her hometown. her grandparents are pansori performers, and she was constantly in attendance, so that’s where she first began to admire music and the performing arts in general. today, she utilizes the storytelling of pansori but adds a modern twist—focusing more on heartfelt lyrics and simplicity rather than over-the-top production value / technically strong vocals.

* tw,  parental dealth, mental illness, suicide.

003.  unbeknownst to her at the time, her mother suffered from postpartum psychosis after birth, and only a few months into her newborn’s life, she left this realm and entered the wild, expansive cosmos. her decision obviously devastated family and friends, but it also made them feel shameful due to how she chose to make her exit. mido’s family decided to keep everything a secret for many years.

004.  when a classmate’s mother let it slip that that’s what happened to her, kids at school began to alienate her. they called her cursed, a witch, and a demon—literally believing that being her friend would lead to their deaths, too. middle and high school weren’t easy, and she grew to resent her family after finding out about her mother in the hallways at school, of all places. she still deals with that trauma.

005.  she “ran away” from gurye when she was nineteen; not bothering to finish high school. she’d made friends online via soundcloud after posting some covers there. they convinced her to move to seoul and steep herself in the indie music scene. she heeded their advice. it was hard at first. she gave tarot readings curbside and busked for a long time before finding a lover ( possible connection ! ) who took her under their wing and truly helped her find her footing in the city.

006.  when she’s in love, she dissolves into her partners; often mirroring their interests and changing herself in order to be more desirable to them. she does with friends, too. she likes to consider herself adaptable and interchangeable, but it can definitely read as artificial, or like she’s trying too hard. all the bullying she faced gave her a desperate need to fit in, so she does all she can to do just that.

* tw, infidelity, drug and alcohol use / abuse.

007.  remember the lover from two points up ? yeah, she cheated on them a few different times, and also would get really messy at the clubs in hongdae. she was so new to all of it; having been so sheltered in a small town as a kid. she loves feeling good and having a good time, and she hates confrontation / making people upset, so she’d say yes to everything. she really loves the highs that drugs give her, the buzz alcohol creates, and the pleasure sex brings. she’s indulgent in that way.

008.  she hasn’t spoken to her lover and their mutual friends in ages, and took time away to sorta reflect on the mess she created / the mess she became, and invested time into herself by making a living at a saju café, improving her music-making capabilities, and remaining as sober as possible. however, after a mixtape of hers created ripples online, she’s started live sets in hongdae and is terrified that she’ll run into her old crowd, but is adamant on trying to make her dreams come true.

plots or any development you’d like to see for your character:

001.  the main plot point i’d love to explore is the dynamic between mido and her ex-lover, and if they’re not within this rp, dealing with their mutual friends / people who were aware of the falling out they all had would be dooope ngl. i left the gender of the person flexible as she’s bisexual and loves all people of all identities, so literally anyone can inquire about it! the relationship took shortly after she arrived in seoul and it turned romantic over time, but pretty quickly all things considered. specific years would be ~2016 to ~2018-ish.

002.  branching off from number 001, she cheated on this person towards the mid-to-end of their relationship with a few different people, so those connections are open too. any gender and pretty much any age so long as we’re comfy! infidelity is involved, so only inquire if that is something you’re okay with exploring / writing. totally understand if not! note, they didn’t have to have sex. it could’ve been lots of making out / emotional cheating, too.

003.  as she’s a mess who needs a little “supervision” despite being a grown ass woman, i would looove to have an individual who’s more of a benevolent / good influence on her. as she’s trying really hard to remain sober now that she’s entered the indie scene again, they’d be a shoulder for her to lean on when times get rough. she’d do her best to be there for them, too. she’s flawed, but a good friend.

004.  opposite of above, some bad influences that encourage her to take a shot or smoke some weed or drop some lsd would be pretty cool, too, just to fuck things up a little. it’ll be a lot for her to dip her toes into those waters again, but the temptation’s high and she’s one of those people that’s easily led, so...

005.  general connections like friends, enemies, friends-with-benefits, collaborators, etc. are always encouraged, too. i find that these connections are easier to build in plotting so while i have nothing specific to offer, i’m up for any ideas depending on the muses / their chem! i like the idea of collaborator / fwb blend, or even friends from her past who didn’t like her giving her a second chance, or literally whatever else fits. just gimme, gimme, gimme all of it! ♡♡♡
