ASKBOX MEME 01: DEVELOPMENT!

Hello, citizens of JONGNORP! Here we present to you our first ever askbox meme! We thought it would be a great idea to toss one on the dash to get everyone into the heads, hearts, and souls of their muses, especially before we launch any events (which are coming soon... 👀)! Anyone who wishes to partake in this meme, please reblog this post and ensure your ask-boxes are open! Please tag all responses with JONGNO:MEME, as well. Thank you! Instructions: send one (or multiple) of the emojis to a participant and they have to respond truthfully from the POV of whichever muse the question is directed to. Oh, and please remember to have fun! 🥰

The days are getting longer. Mimi notices it from the way the sun stretches across the street outside the large shop windows, glowing orange across the grey concrete. He leans his chin in his palms as he stares out at the people passing by. That one's having an affair with a married man... And that one just got a promotion, but sort of hates the line of work she's in. It keeps his mind occupied; a 'hobby' he'd picked up from his time on the street, when his phone was out of charge, and he had no money for the bathhouse. He'd conjured up entire life stories for the people who'd passed by hours before, and he often wondered if people looked at him and saw the truth of his life, or made up something better for him, or worse. Did they think he'd turned to drugs or alcohol, lost all his money, and had been forced to take to the streets, or that perhaps he'd fallen on hard times of no fault of his own. He was too pretty to be evil, after all. A girl at church had told him that once.

He's thinking about her, and her pretty, long, dark, shining hair when the bell above the door tinkles. Forget church girl, he thinks as his eyes fall on the customer. She's frankly the hottest woman Mimi had seen in months, if not ever. Well, it feels a little mean to say that given he'd genuinely thought he was going to marry his ex-girlfriend, before she dumped him when he became homeless. She didn't want to be 'tainted'. Well, Mimi certainly wanted to be tainted by this woman. He puts on his best customer service hat and steps out from behind the counter, hoping his somewhat slightly taller than average height helps him out here.

"Hi there, can I help you with anything?" A relaxed, friendly smile finds a home on his lips as he walks over, keeping a comfortable distance. Mimi had never been insecuer about his looks, in fact if there was one thing he'd never particularly worried about, it was looking good. So, he likes his chances. That is if this woman goes for men; he doesn't like to assume.

hi again!! bear (he/him) here with a muse i truly adore and haven't had the chance to properly write yet, hwang mimi! he's 23, has been somewhat homeless since he was 20. i say 'somewhat' because he's luckily had a few friends let him stay on their couch here and there over the years, and had housing during his 18 months of military service. here you can find links to his profile, and bio. under the cut i'll leave some tldr info about him. also, please like this post if you'd like to plot!

mimi was born to a very normal young couple, but when he was only 2 his father passed away in an accident. left to raise her son alone, his mother was rather vulnerable, and got swept up into a very 'extreme' church

a mere year after his fathers passing his mother remarried the pastor of her new church, but mimi hated the man. he might've only been a toddler, but he knew from the start he didn't like the man one bit

he was right to dislike him. turned out 'the pastor' (mimi rarely called him by his name, and never called him dad) believed in 'the man of the house' being in charge. his mother was expected to cook and clean, while the pastor sat around doing nothing when he wasn't working. for a while he didn't let mimi's mother work, insisting that women's place was in the home.

long story short, mimi hated home life, though the birth of his sister when he was 6 definitely brightened the place up a bit. he really took to her and they ended up being best friends

mimi's 'behaviour' always got him in trouble at school and at home, and he was frequently punished. it all came to a head when he was in university and had joined a rock band. believing him to be possessed, the pastor attemped two exorcisms on him before throwing him out and forbidding him from contacting his sister or mother

living on the street, or sleeping on friends couches (which mimi hated bc he felt guilty about not being able to pay them any rent or give them anything in return) led to a pronounced decline in his mental health, and eventually led to him ending up in hospital with alcohol poisoning, which was the catalyst for his elistment

after his discharge from military service, initially his mental health was alright, but upon going right back to his homeless state of 18 months prior, his mental health plummeted again and he ended up being persuaded to seek medical help

after being diagnosed with bpd, he's been trying hard to manage his symptoms and regularly sees a therapist, but still has his wobbly moments

he managed to get a job after his mental health sort of stabilised, but has yet to find a place to live, since he cant rent on his own (doesn't earn enough) but is also reluctant to spend money as he wants to try and save up for a place big enough for him and his sister once she become an adult and he's allowed to talk to her again (that is if she even wants to talk to him anymore)

mimi struggles with keeping stable relationships, as he has an extreme fear of abandonment, leading him to act quite clingy, possessive and jealous with those closes to him

he also struggles with emotional regularity, and can get very upset very quickly, over seemingly really small things, or have violent outbursts. he always feels really terrible about it afterwards, and is getting better at handling it, but he still sometimes slips up

he tends to only drink around those he's close to and trusts to keep an eye on him, as he's nervous about overdoing it like he used to when his mental health was really bad

he loves music, its his absolute passion and the first thing he turns to when he needs to calm down (which is why he's always got his overear headphones round his neck, to block out the world when it gets a bit too much)

he really has no idea where he wants to go in life. right now he's sort of content working in the music shop, and probably thinks about owning one himself one day, but he's aware people don't really buy physical CDs anymore, and only some people get vinyls, so he's a bit worried music stores will die out
