                             as   the   night   ebbed   away,   the   girl   found   herself   draped   against   the   bar,   the   soft   glow   of   the   flickering   lights   casting   delicate   shadows   across   her   face.   the   music,   still   pulsating   in   the   background,   seemed   to   permeate   the   very   air   around   her.   before   her,   an   empty   glass   stood   as   a   silent   testament   to   the   evening's   indulgence,   a   fleeting   memory   of   moments   past.

                             her   breathing,   steady   and   deep,   offered   a   stark   contrast   to   the   lively   mix   of   voices   and   laughter   that   enveloped   the   room.   yet,   it   was   a   gentle   shove   that   nudged   her   from   her   slumber,   a   soft   groan   escaping   her   lips.

                              ❛⠀five   more   minutes…⠀❜     she   murmured   in   her   slumber,   her   words   slurred   by   the   alcohol   that   made   her   feel   warm   and   fuzzy,   and   the   tiredness   that   draped   over   her   like   a   blanket.   but   when   the   shove   persisted,   irritation   gently   kneaded   her   brows   together.

                             ❛⠀leave   me   alone,⠀❜    she   tried   to   turn   her   head   away   as   if   that   would   rid   her   of   the   pest   attempting   to   wake   her.   however,   it   was   to   no   avail.   with   a   squint,   she   managed   to   open   one   eye,   only   to   be   met   with   the   familiar   image   of   ash.   the   sight   of   him   caused   her   to   shoot   up,   curiosity   taking   over   her   features.

                              ❛⠀kyu?⠀❜     she   tilted   her   head   to   the   side   in   her   drunken   state.     ❛⠀when   did   you   get   here?⠀❜    she   asked,   as   if   she   hadn't   bid   him   goodbye   on   the   dance   floor   who   knows   how   long   ago.

[imvgincs]

                           in   a   haze   of   anger,   sooji's   figure   distorted   in   a   blur,   her   form   wavering   as   if   caught   in   a   glitch.   and   as   he   lunged   from   the   dark   with   a   phantom   jab,   his   fist   passed   through   her   insubstantial   presence.   intangible   in   that   moment,   with   only   static   hung   in   the   air.   in   an   instant,   she   reappeared   on   the   opposite   side   of   him,   seamlessly   transitioning   back   into   reality.   dagger   in   hand   aiming   for   his   face   with   determined   precision.

Zak took a deep breath the moment her grip let go, his eyes quickly looking up to catch a glimpse of her fleeting form. IIt had been a long time since he'd seen her like this—fierce, elusive, and completely unpredictable. A grin stretched his lips. She was downright scary in this state, a ghost leaving glitches in her wake. "Now this is what I'm talking about," Zak cackled, knuckles cracking as he bent down to reach his hand beneath the surface of the floor and into the dark abyss to retrieve the knife he'd thrown earlier. "Now we can dance, my little digital ninja." His words barely left him before her kick landed square, sending him staggering. He vanished into darkness, reappearing in a blink to jab at her once more.

a yawn slipped from sooji’s lips as she dragged herself to the entrance of her makeshift home—the abandoned arcade that doubled as her pokémon gym. usually, she’d ignore the relentless banging echoing through the door, but whoever was on the other side was remarkably persistent. there was no way she could drift back to sleep with their irritating pounding reverberating in her ears. finally, she mustered the energy to swing the heavy door open, ready to confront whoever had disturbed her peace. relief washed over her at the sight of a familiar face, but that quickly morphed into annoyance. “ugh, i thought you were just another wannabe looking for a badge,” she huffed, leaning against the door frame, arms crossed defiantly over her chest. she squinted at him, trying to shake off the remnants of sleep. “you know, texting exists,” she added, her tone laced with just a hint of irritation. rubbing her eyes, she resigned herself to the fact that with him here, there was no chance of crawling back into bed. “what are you, a caveman? showing up unannounced?”

                                 ❛⠀⠀you're   kidding   me,⠀⠀❜     she   retaliated   bitterly,   disbelief   washing   over   her   as   ash   backed   out   at   the   last   moment,   withholding   the   crucial   details   of   the   scheme   the   league   had   planned.     ❛⠀⠀what,   did   I   hurt   your   feelings?⠀⠀❜     she   called   after   him,   her   words   dripping   with   cruelty   and   spite.   left   alone   with   her   frustration,   sooji   simmered   in   anger   as   he   departed.   frozen   in   her   spot   on   the   floor   she   recalled   all   the   damage   that   had   been   done   in   their   small   interaction.   she   mourned   her   chair,   a   curse   slipping   from   her   lips   as   she   rose   to   her   feet   unaided.   it   seemed   she   would   have   to   return   to   the   base   sooner   than   expected.   she   knew   jeremy   would   be   waiting   for   her   there.   ash   was   bound   to   have   run   back   to   spill   all   he'd   uncovered   today.

"Keep telling yourself that?" He mocked. She could try to deny it all she wanted, till she was blue in the face, but they both knew the truth. He was intimately familiar with her, and the wavering of her voice only acted as confirmation to him. "I'll save the details," he said with a forced smile, finally getting up from his spot, sensing his edge slipping in the conversation. "If you really want the details, I'll see you back at the base." He looked down at her for a brief moment before ripping his gaze away, taking his leave. "So until then," he offered before walking through the bathroom door. "Rot in hell," his words resonated loud enough for her to hear. Like she'd been requesting, he made use of himself and left.

[ WOUNDED ] Kyumin & Jinx

. 𓇬 𝖒𝖊𝖒𝖊𝖘 .

PROMPT: sender arrives at the receiver's door with considerable injuries, in dire need of help and emergency care that only the receiver is either trusted enough or convenient enough to provide.

when the knock came at her door, sooji already knew it was ash. her powers had drawn a familiar map of tension and conflict in her mind, yet when she opened the door, nothing had prepared her for the sight of him. kyumin—ash—stood there, his usual air of dominance stripped away, replaced by something unrecognizable. bruises marred his skin, dark patches blooming like painful confessions across his body. he was shattered, in a way that felt irreversible, and a cold dread unfurled in her chest.

this wasn’t him. this wasn’t the kyumin who carved paths of destruction, who fought her with fire in his eyes and never let anyone see the cracks beneath the surface. but now, those cracks were wide open, and the man standing before her was a shadow, a fragile echo of everything he used to be. before she could even breathe, he stumbled forward, collapsing into her arms, as if all the strength had left him.

her heart lurched, pounding like a broken thing as she instinctively caught him. the weight of his body was heavy, too real, too wrong. her fingers gripped his waist, a desperate attempt to keep him steady, but when she felt the warmth of his blood seep through his shirt, her breath hitched. the red was stark against her skin, vivid, undeniable—she was holding him together, and he was falling apart.

"get inside," she ordered, her voice sharp with panic she didn’t want to feel. she dragged him into her apartment, the place that had seen more of their battles than their silences. but tonight, it was quiet. too quiet. as she lowered him onto the couch—the one he’d mocked her into getting—a lump formed in her throat. she hated him. she hated him for coming to her like this, for bleeding in her hands, for being the only one who could ever make her feel this helpless.

she hated herself even more for caring.

the words she wanted to say—accusations, insults, anything to push him away—stayed locked inside her. instead, she muttered, “stay.” the word almost instinctive, like a lifeline thrown into a storm. she dashed to the kitchen, rummaging beneath the sink for the first aid kit that felt like an artifact from a different life. the familiar action sparked memories of tending to jojo or zak, but this time, her hands trembled. healing them had felt like a privilege; with ash, it felt like a burden. the recollections of old battles and friends flooded her mind. she tried to remind herself, they’d all gotten hurt before. she’d patched up plenty of wounds. but this… this was different.

when she returned, she found him still sitting there, his eyes dull, his breathing labored. the sight made her chest tighten painfully, her hands trembling as she knelt beside him. as she worked, the air between them thickened, pressing down on her until she could barely breathe. each hiss of pain from him made her flinch, though she tried to hide it.

finally, she broke. "what happened?" her voice was small, almost pleading, a sound she hadn’t meant to make. the vulnerability terrified her. he was the last person she wanted to see her like this—shaken, unraveling, powerless. but the silence between them, stained with his pain and her unspoken fears, threatened to swallow her whole.

her gaze met his, and for a moment, everything stopped. she wanted to scream at him for being reckless, for coming to her like this. for ending up like this in the first place. but instead, she continued her work in the cloud of silence. he needed more than what she could do for him in this moment, she couldn't help but hate that fact too.

“i hate you,” she whispered, but the words cracked, betraying the lie she’d been telling herself for so long.

[ EMBRACE ]: sender settles in the receiver's lap to give them a long, well-deserved hug in comfort. [ chooji ]

PROMPT: sender settles in the receiver's lap to give them a long, well-deserved hug in comfort.

sooji had never been the best at expressing her feelings. words always seemed to slip through her fingers like sand, leaving her grappling with a jumble of emotions that felt too big to name. maybe it was something that hadn’t quite made it into her programming as a human being. and so, when the weight of her day felt too heavy to bear, she dove into the vibrant worlds of her games, the cacophony of gunfire echoing in the artificial glow of her oversized screen. it was her escape, her way of letting off steam.

she was someone who always had something to say—endless chatter about everything and nothing—but when it came to her heart, her voice turned shy. perhaps it stemmed from her upbringing. her therapist had once uttered some platitude about “healing her inner child,” the kind of thing that felt too trite to truly matter.

so engrossed in her game, she hadn’t noticed chaos slip into her space. it wasn’t until she felt the lose of her keyboard beneath her fingertips and the gentle pressure of his presence that she realized he was there, his warmth spreading through her like sunlight. how he managed to fit so perfectly into her world, she couldn’t say, but in that moment, he was there—like a puzzle piece sliding into place.

chaos was always a whirlwind of silly antics, even before they’d stitched their hearts together into something that was more than friends. but this moment felt different. the way his arms wrapped around her wasn’t just a teasing embrace; it was tender, grounding. it lacked the usual mischief that often danced between them. for once, there was no playful push-and-pull, just a simple, sweet connection that made her breath catch in her throat.

sooji had never been good at asking for help—especially not for what she truly needed. but somehow, he seemed to catch on. even if he didn’t, something within her began to soften. there was a strange security in his embrace that wrapped around her like a blanket, making the mayhem of her mind quiet for just a moment.

it felt odd, really, how having him there made everything seem a little lighter. even if it should have felt suffocating, being smothered beneath chaos didn’t feel like a burden at all. perhaps being crushed wasn't so bad if it was at the hands of him.

a soft hum escaped her lips, a playful inquiry as she instinctively rubbed his back, her cheek resting against the side of his head, eyes fluttering shut for a brief escape. “hello to you too,” she murmured, a small smile creeping into her voice, realizing how this simple act had begun to ease the weight on her heart.

“you know,” she lingered, her fingers still moving soothingly across his back, though she could feel the heaviness of her earlier thoughts. “i was kinda in the middle of something.” her tone was light, a hint of mock irritation that faded quickly into warmth. “now my team is probably going to blame our loss on me being a girl,” she laughed, a glitch rattling through her shoulders as she pictured the exasperated faces of her teammates. and, it wasn't long before their complaints were ringing in her ears. the reason she removed a hand from his embrace, yanked off her headphones, and tossed them onto her desk, settling back into the comforting cocoon of his arms.

“eh, but i guess i could forgive you,” she said, a glint in her eyes as she found her way to his hair, giving his scalp a light scratch. “for a price,” she added with a grin. “i can spare a moment for my favorite distraction.”

CAR [Ash & Jinx LOL]

PROMPT: sender ends up sitting in the receiver's lap whilst in a very crowded car together.

the universe must’ve thought sooji was a punchline, relishing the chance to laugh at her misfortunes like she was a character in a bad sitcom. she could practically hear the laugh track every time her life took a turn for the ridiculous. and right now, crammed into the backseat of a car with the entire league for some special business, she felt like the universe was rolling on the floor, doubled over in laughter.

if it had been jojo or even zak sitting on her lap, she could’ve endured the weight with some semblance of dignity. but no, of all people, it was kyumin, the one she often bickered with, the one who seemed to have a knack for pushing her buttons. his back pressed firmly against her cheek, and she couldn’t hold back her frustration any longer. “why are you the one sitting on my lap again?” she gripped, her voice a mix of annoyance and disbelief. “couldn’t you have chosen jojo or zak instead?”

seriously, how was it fair that she, the smallest member of the group, was acting as a makeshift booster seat? the urge to glitch out of the car and teleport to their destination bubbled up inside her, but she knew that would just throw a wrench in the whole vibe. instead, she huffed, “there’s no way you’re sitting on me on the way back.”

"Sparky?!" he repeated, feigning offense, his brow raised at the sudden nickname. "If that's how we're playing things, then you're glitchy," he quipped, giving her a swift once-over. It was odd how easily they could bounce off each other's banter; perhaps it was only easy after all those days spent under house arrest together. Still, something was completely and utterly different here, and he couldn't quite place his finger on it. "I could definitely handle your evil genius ass; look, there's even a spare bedroom if you want to make it a lair to be evil." His head motioned towards the room down the hallway. "Just no evil genius laugh after 11 p.m.; that's quiet time for the building, and we don't need to scare the neighbor; she's hot," he added with a nonchalant nod. Chaos shrugged at her words, flicking the ashes off the cigarette while bringing it back between his lips. "Well, we all have to start somewhere," he laughed, leaning forward on the couch, his elbow resting on his knee. His attention was still on Sooji. He smiled over at her while nodding in agreement. "People thought it was a nickname I gave myself; I had to pull out my entire adoption certificate," he included. He listened to her childhood, perplexed that someone who was a renounced goody two shoes ended up being one of the most wanted criminals in the country. Chaos moved his hand to cover his mouth, and a fake gasp soon followed. "Oh no! You didn't want to share your homework? Even worse, did you use a salad fork to pick up your steak?" he asked, pretending to be mortified. "You deserve to rot in jail for those offenses."

no matter which universe she found herself in, sooji knew deep down that halloween would always be her favorite holiday. from the eerie decorations and spine-chilling movies to the thrill of becoming someone else for a night. the whole season merely put her in a good mood. but, of course, if there was anyone who could rain on her halloween parade, it would be none other than ha kyumin. just seeing him at the same party was enough to get under her skin. she should have known he’d show up—after all, they did share the same circle of friends. however what really made her mood plummet was seeing him dressed as the other half of her lydia deetz costume.

"you don’t even like beetlejuice," the girl jabbed, though she knew better than to pick a fight. if she’d been smart, she would have just avoided him altogether. after all, nothing good ever came from interacting with kyu. "what, did the movie come out and you decided to jump on the bandwagon?" she asked, her brow arching in disbelief as she crossed her arms over her chest. "or did jojo tip you off, and you’re dressed like this to annoy me?"

                         maybe   it   was   a   miracle,   or   perhaps   pigs   were   finally   taking   flight,   because   for   once   in   a   blue   moon,   you   could   argue   that   sooji   and   kyu   were   actually   getting   along.   it   was   like   they   were   teenagers   again,   and   sooji   had   allowed   herself   to   linger   a   little   longer   at   the   base.   that   was   why   they   had   all   gathered   to   eat   together,   reminiscing   about   old   times,   thanks   to   jeremy   and   his   knack   for   cooking.   sometimes   sooji   thought   he   would   have   made   a   great   house   husband   if   he   hadn't   chosen   a   life   of   crime.   she   was   deep   in   conversation   with   jer   when   she   felt   a   light   touch   brush   against   her   cheek.   half-expecting   it   to   be   jojo   or   zak,   she   turned   to   find   ash   there   instead,   confusion   flickering   across   her   features.   ❛   you   know,   you   could've   just   told   me   there   was   something   on   my   face,  ❜   she   said,   using   the   back   of   her   hand   to   check   if   there   was   anything   there.

                         at   this   point,   there   was   no   predicting   when   she'd   bump   into   chaos   next.   she   mentally   noted   that   they   really   needed   to   stop   meeting   during   her   more   confrontational   moments.   seriously.   she   knew   this   part   of   town   wasn't   exactly   a   bed   of   roses,   but   she   hadn't   expected   things   to   blow   up   like   this.   she   could   have   handled   it,   really,   if   he   hadn't   shown   up.   but,   maybe   he   was   right--her   enemies   were   a   bit   more   intense   than   the   usual   riff-raff.    ❛   what   can   i   say?  ❜    a   shrug   rolled   off   her   shoulders   in   an   attempt   to   sound   causal.   ❛   i   do   kinda   have   that   effect   on   people,   ❜   she   half-joked,   brushing   off   the   encounter.   though,   being   part   of   the   league   meant   not   everyone   saw   you   as   a   friend,   whether   you   were   on   the   side   of   justice   or   not.   ❛   but,   in   my   defense,   ❜   the   girl   quickly   held   her   hand   up   as   if   to   defend   herself.    ❛   i   hadn't   even   done   anything   to   that   guy.  ❜

                             the   moon   hung   high   in   the   sky,   its   pale   light   casting   an   eerie   glow   over   the   abandoned   warehouse   district.   shadows   pirouetted   along   the   cracked   concrete,   stirred   by   a   warm   wind   that   whispered   through   broken   windows.   jojo   stood   at   the   rooftop's   edge,   his   gaze   scanning   for   any   signs   of   security   around   the   perimeter   of   the   vicinity   they   were   about   to   breach.   ❛  i   don't   know,   man,  ❜   jojo   began,   his   voice   tinged   with   uncertainty   as   he   shot   the   other   beside   him   a   skeptical   look   behind   his   mask.   ❛  the   goods   are   supposed   to   be   just   inside   there,   according   to   the   deets   sooji   sent   us.  ❜   he   pointed   downwards   to   the   building   below.   rubbing   the   back   of   his   neck,   a   gesture   of   nervousness.   ❛  but...   should   we   really   be   taking   stuff   from   our   own   kind?   feels   kinda   like   we're   being   MAJOR   dicks,   you   know?   couldn't   we,   like,   just   ask   them   to   share?  ❜
