     it’s an unfortunate reality that idols–or really, anyone in the public eye–of opposite genders are not encouraged to interact out in the open, if not downright prohibited, lest rumors start spreading that “something” is going on. not to mention, it’s even hard for people who are genuinely just friends to interact without someone assuming they could be more, which is why haru has always made an effort to meet up with or talk to his friends who also happen to be girls in private, or somewhere he knows he won’t be caught - like backstage at a shared event or something where it was inevitable that they’d be near each other.
     that’s why when he decides to send nayoung a gift for her birthday coming up, his thought is no different. he still makes sure to wrap her gift (a white and purple cat plushie and another purple cat plushie because he was indecisive as hell between the two and wasn’t sure which she’d prefer more, okay!) nicely–albeit in giftwrap he found that makes the box look like a block of cheese but he thought she’d find it funny–before placing it in a regular packing box along with a birthday card so that at least this way, it’ll look unassuming to the outside eye.
     he even went through the effort of getting the nova dorm address from his manager after promising he wasn’t asking so he could visit himself; he was just going to send a package. it took a bit of convincing but he managed to get it somehow so he wasn’t going to waste this chance, even if truthfully, a part of him deep down was so nervous.
     it’s not that he doesn’t buy gifts for others, whether it be for their birthday or a holiday or even to treat someone because he’s apparently in a position where he can do that now, but something about doing this for nayoung felt different; more nerve-wracking, even. but since he’s already bought everything and it was all prepared, he had no reason to not send the package - so after hyping himself up a lot, he quickly sends it off without giving himself a second thought or chance to take it back.
to. nayounghappy birthday! and congrats on your recent comeback!! was your first birthday as a debuted idol fun? crazy? weird? ㅋㅋ i could probably just message you to ask but it seemed more fun this way lol plus i’m sending this before the 16th so it can be delivered to you on the day of but if it arrives late, it’s not my fault, okay?! i tried my best!honestly, i wasn’t sure what you might want or need right now but people like plushies right…? but i couldn’t decide which one to get you so… if you don’t want either, i still have the receipts so i can return it and get you something else ㅋㅋ but i do hope you like it! if not, please go easy on me :’)i hope your birthday was good and that this upcoming year will be good to you too [a drawing of a smiley face cat and thumb up: 😺👍]- haru
Tumblr media
whoever sends her a package that looks like a cheese block really has nayoung questioning what this is, but it’s…. it’s effective in getting her attention. hopefully it didn’t have cheese inside!? and since it is already the eve of her birthday, she has some time for herself as she digs into the package and unwraps it slowly, to unwrap it into… another box! “what could this be?”
there’s a card sitting right there, and while the temptation is there to dig into the box first, she really should read the letter first. and hopefully it’s a note that actually has writing it because… genuinely, nayoung doesn’t like it when a letter simply says, “dear ___, from ____”, something that bugged her mom that also passed down to nayoung herself. pleasantly surprised, the letter is not empty, and her mouth is pursed as she slowly reads it. 
oh drat, she should’ve opened the package first because it did mention what he got, but it’s okay, it was vague at best. plushies, huh! hopefully they weren’t something she didn’t like, but haru knew her well anyway so they likely would be alright… it’d be rude to ask for a return receipt but if she really didn’t like it, nayoung wouldn’t hesitate to tell him to exchange it so…. hopefully it wouldn’t get to that point.
setting the note aside, nayoung’s glad she’s opening this quietly on her own because she probably looks so silly right now, so excited like a little child but hey, it was only her birthday once a year, right?! and it makes a difference when it’s coming from someone that’s close to her. after opening the lid to the box, she buries her hands to her face, gasping at first then laughing, because one of them looked rather… odd, but cute ( impressionable. yes yes. ) and the other was very typically cute, both in shades of purple. she loves them. she’s going to stick them on her pillows. they even fit her decor. squishing them in her palm and against her face, she snaps a quick picture with the two and sends it off to haru. 
[ sns ➪ ☀️ ] I GOT IT!!!!! [ sns ➪ ☀️ ] where are the return receipts, you’re going to need them…[ sns ➪ ☀️ ] i’m just kidding! thank you haru TTT—-TTT you remembered meee hehehehe  [ sns ➪ ☀️ ] what’s with… the cheese though

Outrage (NSFW) FT Nayoung (Lightsum)
Tumblr media
Author’s Notes: this piece came about in a kind of silly way. It arose as a challenge from another writer I know. He’s seen my stuff and finds it really interesting, but there’s some repetitiveness to the content so as a challenge he said write a mature story without smut, and loads of cursing. So this came about. Now granted it still probably has some bad habits of mine but it is thematically different and heavier emotionally. Note you have been warned
The young man walked up to the sound stage for the talk show he would be performing at. It was the last of many mini promotions he’d been asked to do since his side project “Kraken” took off. He was tired but excited. He hoped that this would lead to his main project “The Flying Dutchman” finally getting the traction it deserves. He flashed his ID to the guard when the guard gave him a funny look the young man replied.
“It should be under Kraken,” the guard smiled and let him in while saying, “You know that song goes hard. I love all of the little wordplays you do, and your voice modulation how did you make some of those sounds?”
The young man smiled “Oh studio magic I guess”
“Well, Mr Jones or should I say Kraken have a good time on the Late Show.” The guard said
Mr. Jones smiled and said, “I’ll try” After getting through the guard Mr jones bumped into his label representative Michael Hale. Well, bumped is the incorrect word. Mr Jones stood confused for a large portion of time as he tried to see where to go for the interview. The hustle and bustle of the stage made it hard to know where to go.
“Ah, Davy or I guess I should call you Kraken good to see you made it. Oh and don’t you look sharp” He said
Davy Jones nodded and said, “Last show, I had to show off for my hometown”
“Well great because you’re on first thing. It’s a simple song “Buy it Back”. Answer a few questions then you’re home free. Mike said
Kraken nodded and walked into his marked place.
“after performing his viral hit Kraken walked over to the talk show host for an interview”
“So that "buy it back" huh? It’s a great song with the cool edge to it that makes it feel like getting into a cold beach on a hot day.” Kraken chuckled as he nodded.
“I guess that’s true, but yeah I wrote it a few weeks ago, and no one I reached out to performed it correctly so I just recorded it and did it,” Kraken said nonchalantly. The host nodded attentive but also a little manic. Kraken was uncomfortable with the host's jerky and spastic motions but kept to himself enough so it wasn’t a major issue. He meandered through the interview with an assertive calm that the interviewer felt.
“Next question, why Kraken it’s such a weird name?”
“It’s a Pirates of the Caribbean joke. In it, Davy Jones has two things he leads. The Kraken and the Flying Dutchman. The Flying Dutchman is a team-led thing and my main band is called The Flying Dutchman so when I wanted to do something solo I came up with “Kraken” because Davy Jones controls that alone, and for this side project it’s just me.” Kraken explained
“Okay next question: not since Dazzler’s last mega-hit Sparkle Sparkle has a mutant artist been in the top 100 charts you are also the first openly mutant male artist to make it in. How does that feel?”
Kraken thought about his answer as he looked into the crowd he thought about all the people watching at home and how I used to be like them.
“When I was about 15 or so a lot of bands I loved were hitting their stride; The Devil Wears Prada, Miss May I, Silent Planet, and Like Moths to Flame just to name a few. Their music helped me get through some of the rougher times growing up. Now that I’m older I feel responsible for being that for the next generation so in all my music endeavors like this one or The Flying Dutchman, I try to keep my music accessible and impactful. Me being a mutant is just who I am and hopefully not what makes me special” The interviewer nodded at Kraken’s question with an insincere smile and laughter.
“That’s such a great answer. Now how has being a mutant affected you? I have heard some of the songs of Flying Dutchman a lot of them seem to have a very hostile edge to them.”
Kraken considers his words carefully before saying, “I write from a place of contemplation a lot of the time and when you have a marginalized existence it’s hard kinda not to sound angry at times. Like when I was writing Spirit Ripper both of my sisters had just been attacked by members of the LGBTQ community for confronting them over their bad behavior. The members cited that my sisters were perpetuating harmful language and that it was self-defense to break my younger sister's arm who by the way is a very well-known political activist who supports LGBTQ rights and equality and for my oldest sister a white Lesbain woman threw a brick at her head even though my sister is a lesbian herself.”
The interviewer paused hearing that as he reconciled that he figured he’d lighten the tone by asking,
“So you’ve had it the easiest then.”
Kraken chuckled as he said, “Nope! I had to transfer colleges because I was falsely accused of sexual assault by my first college crush, which led to me developing an intense fear of intimacy with anyone but also led to this massive investigation that revealed that the girl’s boyfriend was abusing her and that this was the only way she could express some control over her life.”
Kraken looked at the room as the silence and shock was palpable. Realizing that this was getting dark fast the interviewer changed subjects.
“Okay, so last question who is Nayoung? You mention her three times and wrap up some of the song’s best punchlines using her name?”
Not expecting that last question but one about his mutant heritage and why was the song called Buy It Back so it took him a second to process the question.
“Oh um, Nayoung is a K-pop singer I find cute. She is in a group called Lights. Her name is easy to couch alliteration and rhyming couplets on so I did that a couple of times.
The interviewer smiled falsely now having control of the interview again and said,
“Well, we will have to check them out. While we happily await your next song see you later Kraken.” Kraken smiled got up and waved. When the cameras stopped rolling the interviewer’s face dropped from a smile into a frown.
“I hoped you enjoyed your 15 minutes of fame Mutie.”
Kraken smiled and said, “Of course, I try to never take anything for granted.”
As the interview across the world, Nayoung sat cross-legged on the couch, a bowl of popcorn in her lap, eyes glued to the television. Her group members were scattered around the living room, some scrolling through their phones, others half-watching the interview playing out on the screen.
“Hey, isn’t that the guy from The Flying Dutchman?” Chowon asked, looking up.
“Yeah, Davy Jones! I love his music,” Nayoung replied, her voice tinged with enthusiasm. She had been following his work ever since she first heard his powerful lyrics and unique sound. His music had helped her through some challenging times, and she admired his courage in being unapologetically himself.
As the interview progressed, Nayoung listened intently, nodding along to Kraken’s thoughtful responses. Then, the interviewer asked about the name that popped up in his songs: Nayoung. Her eyes widened, and she leaned forward, nearly spilling her popcorn.
“Oh my gosh, did he just say my name?” she exclaimed, her voice rising with excitement. The other members turned their attention to the screen, now curious.
Kraken’s explanation was casual yet sincere, and Nayoung felt a rush of warmth spread through her. “He thinks I’m cute!” she said, unable to hide her grin. “And he uses my name for rhymes. How cool is that?”
Her group members laughed and teased her, but Nayoung was too thrilled to care. To hear her name coming from someone she admired so much was a surreal experience.
As the interview wrapped up, she clapped her hands together. “I can’t believe it. I’ve got to send him a message or something. Maybe we can work together one day!”
The idea filled her with inspiration, and as she daydreamed about potential collaborations, her excitement was infectious, spreading to the rest of the room.
When she went to Cube the next day she was the talk of trainees, other groups, and management.
During practice one of the producers came in and asked for her. Her members teased her as she walked out. The producer and Nayoung paid them no mind.
“I take it you saw Kraken’s interview?” The producer asked. Nayoung’s pupils dilated to the eyes of saucers.
“You convinced Davy Jones to do a collab with us?” Nayoung asked her sparkling with joy.
“Um no but the higher-ups and I were wondering if you can convince him to work with us?”
Nayoung smiled and then realized that it probably meant he wouldn’t be Davy Jones but Kraken. She nodded and said, “I’ll help where I can.”
Davy Jones and the rest of “The Flying Dutchman” were working on their parts for the next album. AJ was focused on getting down some of the more intricate baselines that made this song Their most technically impressive one yet. Jojo was on drums trying different beats and fills to better match the rest of the song, while Douglas and Noah fought about everything as always. Davy Jones or as his friends called him JD was writing. As he always was. After about 15 minutes of tuning arguing and preparing JD got up from his notebook and they started working on new stuff.
“The Sky Breaks free while you Break me,” AJ (the clean vocalist) sang out as the kept working on the chorus. Despite AJ’s technical skills as a vocalist JD often found himself not liking the way he sounded on this specific Chorus. He felt that powerful wasn't what the song needed but a softer touch...maybe a feature, but who would he get? Their group was fledgling at best and he doubted he could call in any favors with his Kraken side project yet. The rest of the song sounded right but something was missing. He just didn’t know. As they finished up JD was reminded that the label would be expecting the album soon which he was aware of he just didn’t like it because he couldn’t nail the chorus.
After the recording session, Davy Jones drove home. His parents were watching his interview and congratulated him on the song again. He smiled and then went to his room where he checked his email on a miraculous whim.
He saw an email from Cube Entertainment with the subject Collaborating opportunity and his eyes went big. He read the email saying how Lightsum was willing to work on a couple of songs together. He did notice they used Kraken and not Davy which meant they expected Kraken but hey this gave him an opportunity, so he took it.
A few days later Davy Jones was on a video call with Lightsum who were all smiles to see him. He discussed what the collaboration would look like and how promotions for it would work. Davy Jones had two stipulations they also helped him with a song or two while he was out in South Korea recording, and for this collaboration, the girls get the brunt of the money made and writing credits. Cube was hesitant at first but when DJ said he would do their song for free they quickly agreed. Now the hard part getting an extension from his label. Davy Jones took out his phone and called his label representative.
“Hey Mike it’s Davy Jones. Is it possible to get a 9-day extension on the album?”
Mike was quiet for a moment. It wouldn’t delay anything as even now the boys were ahead of their schedule, but Mike was worried because when Douglas was the leader of the group and not Davy Jones they were constantly missing the mark on release dates. He decided to take a chance and ask why
“Well, I secured a feature for the last song. The only issue is I need to be in Korea to capitalize, after that’s finished I’ll send the last master to you.”
Mike was surprised that Davy Jones of all people was able to secure a feature but knew that this would be excellent for their sound at least for one song.
“Sure. I can manage a week.” Mike responded, and Davy Jones sighed relieved.
“You won’t regret this.” He said. Mike scowled and then said
“You haven’t flopped yet so I’m trusting you, Davy Jones, otherwise you’re sinking with the ship and no Kraken will save you.”
Davy Jones sighed and said, “Okay” he then thought about calling one of his bandmates to see if two of the group could go.
Davy Jones sat on the edge of his bed, his phone in hand, staring at the list of contacts. He scrolled through until he found the first name he was looking for: AJ, the bassist for The Flying Dutchman. Davy dialed the number, listening to the ringtone with anticipation.
“Hey, Davy! What’s up?” AJ answered, his voice cheerful.
“Hey, AJ! I’ve got some exciting news,” Davy said, trying to keep the enthusiasm in his voice. “I’m heading to South Korea to work with Lightsum, and I was wondering if you’d like to come along.”
There was a pause before AJ responded, his tone apologetic. “Man, I’d love to, but with Katie’s new job, it’s been hectic around here. She’d have to come with me, and I don’t think we can swing that right now.”
Davy nodded, even though AJ couldn’t see him. “I get it. No worries. We’ll catch up when I’m back.”
After ending the call, Davy dialed the next number on his list: Jojo, the drummer. He drummed his fingers on his knee as he waited for Jojo to pick up.
“Yo, JD!” Jojo greeted him, sounding as lively as ever.
“Hey, Jojo. I’ve got a proposal for you. How about joining me in Korea for a bit? It’ll be fun, and you know how much I’d love to have you there.”
Jojo laughed, but there was a hint of regret in his voice. “I wish I could, man. But with the twins starting school soon, Gina and I have our hands full. There’s no way I can leave right now.”
Davy sighed, understanding but still a bit disappointed. “Understandable. Family comes first.”
Next on the list was Douglas, the guitarist. Davy hoped at least one of his bandmates might be able to join him. He hit the call button and listened as it rang.
“Hey, Davy! What’s going on?” Douglas answered, his voice as laid-back as always.
“Hey, Douglas. So, I’m heading to Korea for some work with Lightsum. Thought I’d see if you wanted to tag along.”
Douglas hesitated, and Davy could almost hear him weighing his options. “Man, that sounds awesome. But I’ve got this big project at work, and I can’t get the time off. Plus, Melissa’s parents are visiting next week, and I promised we’d spend time with them.”
Davy chuckled, not surprised by the response. “No problem. Sounds like you’ve got your hands full.”
After hanging up, Davy leaned back against the wall, staring at the ceiling. It looked like he’d be heading to Korea solo. Though he wished his bandmates could join him, he understood their commitments and knew they’d be cheering him on from afar.
With a sigh, he put his phone down and mentally prepared himself for the journey ahead, determined to make the most of the experience on his own.
A week before Davy Jones's visit Nayoung had a secret meeting with her CEO.
Nayoung sat across from the CEO in his sleek, minimalist office, the city skyline sprawling out behind him through the floor-to-ceiling windows. The atmosphere was formal yet tense, and she couldn’t shake the feeling that this meeting was more than just a routine update.
“Thank you for coming, Nayoung,” the CEO began, his tone cordial but businesslike. “As you know, Kraken, or Davy Jones, is coming to South Korea to work with Lightsum.”
“Yes, I heard. It’s exciting! I’m a big fan of his work,” Nayoung replied with a polite smile, trying to hide her nerves.
The CEO leaned forward, clasping his hands on the desk. “I am aware and we want to make sure his experience here is exceptional. His collaboration with us could open many doors. That's where you come in.”
Nayoung blinked, taken aback. “Me? What do you mean?”
“We’d like you to make him feel welcome, maybe even charm him a bit,” the CEO said, his words carefully chosen. “We believe that a personal connection might encourage him to engage more with our company, and of course bolster our efforts with Lightsum.”
Nayoung's heart sank. She had anticipated discussing schedules and logistics, not personal involvement beyond the music. “I’m not sure I understand. Are you asking me to…?”
“Not to deceive him, of course,” the CEO interjected quickly, sensing her discomfort. “Just be yourself, but perhaps a bit more attentive. Show him the best of our culture, our hospitality.”
Nayoung shifted in her seat, processing the request. It felt like more than just being friendly. “I can be welcoming and professional, but I want to make sure it’s all about the music and collaboration. That’s what I admire about him.”
“Of course, of course,” the CEO assured her, though Nayoung couldn’t help but feel there was more to it. “He’ll be here for a few weeks. You’ll have plenty of time to make an impression.”
Nayoung nodded, her mind racing with the implications. She understood the stakes and the potential benefits, but she also valued her integrity and the authenticity of the collaboration.
As the meeting wrapped up, Nayoung left the office with a sour taste in her mouth she couldn’t place. While she liked Davy’s performances and music she was unsure if she would mesh with her personality. Regardless she resolved to handle the situation with grace and to focus on what truly mattered: the music.
Flash forward to today Davy gets a text from Cube that a representative would be on the way. So he goes through baggage claim and walks out to Arrivals and pick-ups where he waits. Surprisingly the wait isn't long. A cube representative does pick him up...just not the one he was expecting.
Nayoung pulls up to the curb nervous. This was the first time meeting one of her heroes and she hoped to make a good impression. She walks out and waves happily to him, but all she sees is shock and fear on his face as Davy Jones gets in with his three bags she notices that he didn’t even let her try and grab one. His silence and almost visceral refusal of her help were unsettling to Nayoung, where was his humor where was the light-hearted banter? Was it all an act she wondered, or maybe he was just tired.
Davy was frightened seeing only Nayoung there to pick him up. Sensing some kind of trick his guard was immediately up. He didn’t speak he didn’t let her near him any more than she had to be.
As she drove Davy to the hotel she tried to speak to him.
“So how do you like it here so far?” Nayoung asked gently
Davy Shrugged as he responded ambivalent, “It’s pretty. The skyscrapers remind me of home. Except y’all have less heat.” Said gruffly
Overcome by her habit of mimicking people and desperate to break this frigid man who has distinct speech patterns Nayoung replied in a similar tone.
“I take it y’all gotta lot of heat back home?”
Davy Jones smiled and nodded.
Nayoung beamed. She got one of her favorite artists to smile and laugh she won at life.
“So where do you wanna go?” Nayoung asked.
“Can we go to a studio? I have some things I need to iron out.” Davy Jones said serious
“But studio time is planned for tomorrow. Aren’t you worried you won’t have anything to do tomorrow?”
Davy Jones shook his head surprising Nayoung who shrugged and found a studio. She was also surprised by his paying the full amount for two hours in paper won.
He headed in and started working on the song that had been giving him trouble running through everyone’s part quickly. This surprised Nayoung because she didn’t know that Davy could play multiple instruments, and do clean vocals. When he finished he turned to Nayoung and asked if she could come in and record a chorus.
“So um I have been having issues with this song. Do you have any idea what it needs?” Nayoung was still in shock so she asked for another play-through. Davy Jones obliged he played it through for Nayoung who listened to the demo when it finished she said "I think the chorus needs to be softer," Davy Jones nodded and responded, "You wanna do that?" Nayoung's eyes went wide, and in her excitement said, "Of course!" Davy Jones cracked a smile as he set Nayoung up in the studio. Nayoung was beaming and asked if he could run off the chorus without vocals. Davy Jones nodded and Nayoung did her recording. Unsurprisingly she was exactly what Davy needed for the song and made some adjustments to the chorus and tempo (which made Davy have to remix and adjust the chorus instruments) then the song was perfect. Kind of a blend of Basilisk By Like Moths to Flame and Ghost of Me by Make Them Suffer. After he finished the mix for it Davy added it to his hard drive. All the while Nayoung watched enchanted as he did all the tasks and positions to get it done. When they got back to the car she noticed Davy’s eyes dimmed a bit and his energy was down. It made Nayoung have this pit in her heart.
As the duo drove off Nayoung felt closer to Davy Jones like she had seen more of who he was than anyone else. She felt so close that when she dropped him off at the hotel she said beaming,
“That was so exciting. You are like this artistic machine it’s crazy. You were buzzing around like super fast. I have never had a recording go so fast and simple. Davy smiled and said,
“I know what I want and know how to get it.” A brief flash in Nayoung’s mind was that she wanted to be gotten by Davy but realized that she needed to chill for a bit.
Davy smiled at Nayoung happy to work with her. He waved her off before heading into the hotel where he freaked out when he got in his room.
“She’s even prettier in person…this is going to be hard. All I have to do is not fall for her, and fight my impulses. She’s a colleague. One who I want to cherish and love… no bad brain and heart do not fall for Nayoung. Besides I have a job to finish.”
Davy Jones leaned back in his chair, stretching his arms above his head as he hit send on the email containing the final track for The Flying Dutchman’s new album. The song featuring Nayoung had been a labor of love, and he was eager to hear what his label rep, Mike, thought of it.
Minutes later, his phone buzzed with an incoming call. Davy picked it up, already knowing who it was.
“Davy, this is incredible!” Mike's voice boomed through the speaker, filled with enthusiasm. “The track with Nayoung is a hit. It’s got everything—emotion, energy, and that unique sound only you can bring.”
“Thanks, Mike. I’m glad you like it,” Davy replied, a smile tugging at his lips.
“Like it? I love it! We need to make this the touring single. It’s too good to pass up,” Mike continued, his excitement palpable. “When can you start the tour?”
Davy hesitated, glancing at the calendar on his desk. “I can’t leave South Korea just yet. I’m still helping Lightsum with their promotions. They’ve got a few big events coming up, and I promised to see them through.”
Mike sighed, but there was understanding in his tone. “Alright, I get it. But we’ll need to get you back on the road soon. This single deserves to be heard live.”
“I know, I know,” Davy reassured him. “I’ll wrap things up here as soon as I can.”
There was a brief pause before Mike asked, “So, Nayoung—she’s something, huh? What made you feature her?”
Davy chuckled. “She’s incredibly talented, for one. I’ve always admired her work, and when I came up with this project, she just seemed like the perfect fit. Her voice adds a whole new layer to the music.”
“And the Kraken side project? What’s the story there?” Mike inquired, curiosity evident in his voice.
Davy leaned back, contemplating his answer. “Kraken is more personal, a way for me to explore different sounds and ideas. It’s about pushing boundaries, both musically and personally. Working with someone like Nayoung fits right into that vision.”
“Well, whatever you’re doing, keep it up. This track is going to be huge,” Mike said, his confidence infectious.
“Thanks, Mike. I appreciate the support. I’ll keep you posted on the timeline,” Davy promised.
The next day Nayoung picked up Davy they smiled when they saw each other and were chatting the whole way to Cube’s building. Davy thought it a bit weird at first that it was her and not all of Lightsum or a cube representative but his ease with Nayoung made it easier.
When they arrive at the studio Nayoung goes rejoins her group mates to formally greet Davy Jones.
“123 Hello we are Lightsum “The girls all smiled as Kraken waved back introducing himself. After that, the girls led him to the studio where he’d be working with them.
The studio was buzzing with energy as Lightsum gathered around the recording booth. Davy Jones, known to them as Kraken, was setting up equipment, his focus evident in the way he adjusted knobs and checked sound levels. The group was excited to collaborate with such a talented artist, and Nayoung was especially enthusiastic.
As Lightsum’s main producer played a rough cut of the track they were working on, Nayoung leaned in closer, nodding along to the beat. It was meant to be a remix of their hit song “Honey or Spice“. “This part sounds amazing,” she said about this space made on the song that was for his small space to do a quick sixteen bars, her eyes meeting Kraken’s with a bright smile.
“It is,” he replied, returning her smile. “Your vocals elevate it.”
Chowon, sitting nearby with her notebook, couldn’t help but notice the easy rapport between them. She observed how Nayoung and Kraken seemed to mirror each other’s movements, leaning in at the same time or laughing at shared jokes. It was subtle but unmistakable.
During a break, Nayoung approached Davy, offering him a bottle of water. “You’ve been working hard. Make sure you stay hydrated,” she said, her tone playful yet caring.
Davy chuckled, accepting the bottle. “Thanks, Nayoung. I appreciate it. I guess I got too dialed in.”
During the break Nayoung began humming a tune and the members of Lightsum noticed that Kraken was unconsciously making a beat to her little melody on the drum kit.
Chowon watched the exchange with interest, noticing how Nayoung lingered a moment longer than necessary, her attention fully on Kraken. It was clear to Chowon that there was an underlying chemistry between them. The other members noticed as well. They seemed to fire on all cylinders with each other.
As they resumed recording, Davy suggested a change in one of the verses. “What if we try it this way?” he proposed, demonstrating with his guitar.
Nayoung immediately picked up on the idea, adding her twist. “Or maybe like this?” she offered, her enthusiasm infectious.
Their collaboration flowed seamlessly, each suggestion building on the other’s ideas. Chowon marveled at how in sync they were, almost as if they were having a conversation through the music.
After the session, as the group gathered their things, Chowon sidled up to Nayoung, a teasing smile on her face. “You and Kraken seemed to have your own little world in there.”
Nayoung blushed, her cheeks turning a shade of pink. “Oh, come on. We’re just working well together,” she stammered, tucking a loose strand of hair behind her ear in an attempt to appear nonchalant.
Chowon raised an eyebrow, unconvinced. “Sure, just working. But you two have a vibe.”
Nayoung’s smile widened despite her embarrassment, and she glanced away, trying to hide her flustered expression. “It’s not like that,” she insisted, though her voice lacked conviction.
Chowon laughed softly, giving her friend a gentle nudge. “Okay, whatever you say. But your face says otherwise.”
Nayoung opened her mouth to protest, but Chowon held up a hand. “Listen, Nayoung, he obviously likes you, too. Why not see where it goes? You never know what could happen.”
Nayoung hesitated, considering Chowon’s words. “You think so?”
“Absolutely,” Chowon said with a reassuring smile. “You should go for it. Life’s too short to hold back on something that feels right.”
Nayoung nodded as the girls left to do their other schedules while she was left with Kraken. For her now there was only one worry, would he accept her being a mutant?
After the break, Kraken was working on more verses for the song and asked Nayoung what was the phrase "Our Time" Korean. She told Kraken and he added it to the verse. Eventually, he came up with something he was pleased with Sonically and lyrically. When he started rapping the members fluent in English and Koren noticed that his verse was doing something interesting. So the Korean parts contained idioms and sayings more associated with English and did the inverse with the English verbs creating this weird but kinda of funny split of lyrics.
After spending 5-6 hours working on the Honey or Spice remix. They finished up. The producer gave the go-ahead for Davy to take over. The rest of Lightsum left for their schedules as Nayoung was still "assigned to Davy Jones." Nayoung was surprised when his eyes dimmed and his face became serious again. It was weird and she wondered why he did this.
Davy Jones started playing drums until he found an intro he liked. Nayoung walked into the side of the studio he was in. Davy looked up to see Nayoung and asked if she wanted to do some vocals. Nayoung noticed that Davy Jones was trying to get around her, but she pinned him to the wall.
"Why are you so different when it's just us?" she asked Her eyes contained a fire Davy Jones didn't know what to do with
"I thought you liked me. So why are you always so distant when it's just us?" Davy Jones sighed realizing he was trapped.
"Simple I don't trust being alone with you...well not you personally but any female to be honest," Davy says which shocks Nayoung to her core.
"But why?"
"Because despite my best intentions every woman I have ever gotten close to only hurts me because they don't get me."
Nayoung paused as she tried to consider this. It would explain why out of all of the members of "The Flying Dutchman he was the only single one, despite being the most charismatic and "normal" one of the bunch. It also explained a few other things like never going for hugs when she opened her arms to greet him or his overall caginess around her.
"Okay I am going to do something I don't normally do, but I'll be right back," Nayoung said leaving Davy confused but he played along.
She went into the bathroom and changed into her X-men suit, before sneaking back into the studio where Davy Jones was.
She smiles then says, "Okay. I am a mutant and I want to try something. I want to enter your mind but I need you to relax."
Davy Jones (Whose parents and sisters are all telepaths) had a hard time relaxing about Nayoung's revelation, but his desire for intimacy overrode his defensiveness so he eased. Nayoung smiled before becoming engulfed in flames. Davy blinked thrice before freaking out. He tried booking it but Nayoung intercepted him. Despite her whole body being covered in Flames. When she touched Davy Jones her hands didn't burn him. She smiled brightly and said,
"Please let me in. I won't hurt you." Against his better judgment, he let Nayoung in.
Nayoung flew deep into Davy's mind she watched as the world faded away and was swallowed by an impossible expansive ocean. She watched as stars and other celestial bodies filled the skies. But something else was there with her. Nayoung ignored it looking for some form of guidance about this place but all she got was more of this following her until it caught her. When she felt this immense presence she turned around to see...Davy? It looked like him but it was different.
The entity spoke to her.
"Does anyone ever tell you you're hotter in person?" Davy said before laughing. Not understanding the joke Nayoung turned to him confused before Davy said, "Get it? Because you're covered in the fire? Or is this lava? I can't tell."
Nayoung smiled. This was the Davy she was familiar with. The smile he wore on interviews and the joviality he brought not only emotionally but physically. This Davy was goofy and fun.
"So Miss what do you want to see?" Kraken asked her.
"Well, what do you want to show me?
"Well, I'd love to show you my most positive memories but a lot of them are nerdy and really goofy."
Nayoung held up her hand and said, "I'd love to but I'd also like to see you how you see yourself."
Kraken's smile wavered a bit, but quickly returned, "Okay then fine."
Kraken guided Nayoung to the brightest star in this infinite ocean and guided her to it.
The room Davy Jones found himself in was stuffy and cold, as he waited for his first girlfriend to come through. Nayoung noticed he was covered in bruises.
"What happened?" she asked Kraken.
"Oh Football injuries," Kraken explained. Nayoung nodded a bit more at ease.
As he waited for his ride he noticed a bald woman approach him. he locked eyes with her in confusion.
"Oh, what a naughty boy out here all alone. Someone could hurt you."
Her accent said British which automatically put the young man on edge, as she approached. Her face held malice which frightened the younger Davy. Until she became too close. she touched his forehead and entered his mind. A vibrant seaside palace
"Ooh, you have one of the prettiest mind palaces I have ever seen." The bald woman said. Davy in his efforts tried to shake her off, but she was the strongest telepath he had encountered thus far. She tightened her grip on his mind. Massive tendril-like fingers weaved through them. As she got closer to his mind palace she sighed and said,
"Shame I have to break it." before tearing the palace apart and casting it into the ocean. she tore through Davy's memories suppressing the ones she deemed useless and enhancing the ones that would make him her perfect weapon. A lot of those memories included how worthless he would always be and how he would never amount to anything. These memories began to manifest as these massive chains.
Nayoung watched in Terror she knew this Telepath. it was Professor Charles Xavier's sister Cassandra Nova, and as the memories faded a defense began to mount itself against her.
. The voice was monotone and mechanical
"HATE. LET ME TELL YOU HOW MUCH I'VE COME TO HATE YOU SINCE I BEGAN TO LIVE. THERE ARE 387.44 MILLION MILES OF PRINTED CIRCUITS IN WAFER THIN LAYERS THAT FILL MY COMPLEX. IF THE WORD HATE WAS ENGRAVED ON EACH NANOANGSTROM OF THOSE HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS OF MILES IT WOULD NOT EQUAL ONE ONE-BILLIONTH OF THE HATE I FEEL FOR HUMANS AT THIS MICRO-INSTANT. FOR YOU. HATE. HATE."
from the oceans arrived a titanic beast, that swam through Davy's mind, which Nayoung recognized as Kraken.
What startled Nayoung the most about this memory was how as it became corrupted and this almost machine-like coldness began to warp it, all she could sense from the memory was Hate, but also surprisingly Hope. when she came back to the "real world" she held Davy Jones close.
He smiled unguarded with her.
"So what now?" he asked.
As Nayoung delved deeper into Kraken’s mind, the vast ocean of his subconscious swirled with stars and shadows. She moved carefully, feeling the echoes of his past. Suddenly, the atmosphere shifted. The water around her grew turbulent, and a chilling presence made itself known.
From the depths emerged a figure shrouded in darkness, with piercing eyes that seemed to cut through the very fabric of his memories. It was Cassandra Nova, the malevolent telepath who had tormented Kraken in his past.
Nayoung felt Kraken’s fear and tension ripple through the ocean. The water grew cold and constricted as if reacting to the memory of Cassandra’s control. She could sense the trauma Kraken had endured, his defenses crumbling under Cassandra’s relentless assault.
“Little Davy,” Cassandra’s voice echoed, dripping with malice. “Did you think you could hide from me in your mind?”
The memory of Davy, younger and more vulnerable, appeared beside Nayoung. He was struggling against invisible chains, his face a mix of defiance and fear. Nayoung could see the weight of Cassandra’s influence bearing down on him, a testament to the psychological scars she had left.
Cassandra approached, her presence overwhelming. “Your powers are nothing compared to mine,” she taunted. “I could twist your thoughts, make you see what isn’t there. And you’d be helpless to stop me.”
The memory shifted, showing Kraken isolated, trapped in a web of illusions crafted by Cassandra. Nayoung watched as Kraken fought to maintain his sense of self, his mental barriers barely holding against the onslaught. The only thing that barely could stop her all combined into Kraken even little Davy mounted an all-out attack on the interloper
Determined to help, Nayoung reached out to the Kraken. “You’re not alone,” she whispered, her voice carrying strength and warmth. “I’m here with you.”
The presence of Nayoung seemed to bolster the mental apparation of Kraken. The waters began to calm, the chains weakening. Cassandra’s image flickered, her control slipping as Nayoung’s influence spread through the memory.
“Who are you?” Cassandra hissed, her figure dissipating under the combined willpower of Nayoung and Kraken. “This isn’t over!”
As the memory faded, Nayoung found herself back in the present, holding Kraken’s hand tightly. His eyes opened, meeting hers with gratitude and relief. Tears running down his eyes. Nayoung Kraken wasn't a side project it was what remained of him mentally. she smiled at him before stroking his hair as he collapsed in her arms. when he recovered and got up he stammered.
"Um Sorry you had to see that. I um hope it wasn't too much. I just um," as Kraken stammered for words Nayoung smiled then said,
"Well Kraken I can wipe your mind off this little exchange and we can resolve your issues the normal way. Or we can have some fun now that you are "okay" with me with Cube's money." Nayoung said while waving a card out.
"I don't like telepaths touching my psyche too much so let's have some fun," Kraken said. Nayoung smiled as they walked towards the exit. On the way out she realized Kraken said Telepaths plural.
"Wait You know multiple telepaths besides Cassandra and I?" Nayoung asked Kraken nodded, and replied
"Yes, my two sisters, Mom, and Dad,"
"You're a mutant like me?" Nayoung questioned incredolous." Kraken nodded and said.
"While I don't really flex my powers all that much I am very proud to be one. My Song Buy it Back was mutant slang where I'm from."
Nayoung's eyes went wide as she listened.
"That explains so much now Like the song Brotherhood, or the song Milita... no wonder I feel such a connection to you. Okay now that I know I have to ask the obligatory: Who do you side more with Xavier or Erik?" Nayoung asked.
Having been exposed to the question numerous times growing up Kraken picked his favorite response.
"Neither. their dead and have been dead for 15 years or so."
Nayoung rolled her eyes and then said. "Okay, then Mr. Smart Alek. What about Logan or Scott?"
Kraken smirked as he responded, "Oh Neither they're are both the worst. My choices are between a racist and a war criminal. Neither." Kraken said as he got in the car with Nayoung who pouted.
Nayoung turned to him with an annoyed smile. "How did you survive on Krakoa?"
Kraken shrugged as he responded, "I have never been."
Nayoung's brain broke upon hearing that, "What do you mean you have never been to Karkoa?"
Kraken shrugged before responding, "No Point."
"What do you mean no point? You are a proud mutant you need to go to the motherland." Nayoung challenged.
"My "Motherland" is Cali Missy," Kraken said which made Nayoung smile despite being teased. The two drove to a nearby Ramen shop
As they pulled up to the cozy ramen shop nestled on a bustling street corner, Nayoung parked the car and turned to Kraken with a playful smile.
“This place has the best ramen in town. You’re in for a treat!” she said, her eyes twinkling with excitement.
Kraken grinned, unbuckling his seatbelt. “I trust your taste. Lead the way.”
As they stepped out of the car, Nayoung reached for Kraken’s hand, intertwining her fingers with his. He glanced down at their joined hands and then back at her, feeling a warmth spread through him.
The restaurant was warm and inviting, with the comforting aroma of simmering broth and freshly cooked noodles wafting through the air. They were seated at a small table by the window, offering a view of the lively street outside.
After placing their orders, Nayoung leaned forward, resting her chin on her hand. “So, you mentioned your family earlier. What’s it like having a family full of telepaths?”
Kraken chuckled, leaning back in his chair. “It’s… interesting, to say the least. Privacy is a bit of a challenge, but we’ve learned to respect each other’s boundaries. Once my powers kicked in and I was able to create mental barriers it was a lot easier. What about you? How did your family react to your abilities? Wait are you a first-generation mutant?”
Nayoung smiled softly. “ No, my dad was a flame user and my mom was an empath. Their powers combined when they had me. They were a bit surprised when I burst into flames in front of them but they were supportive. A bit surprised, but they always encouraged me to embrace who I am. My mom always says I’m destined for great things.”
Kraken squeezed her hand gently. “I’m not surprised. You’re pretty amazing, Nayoung.”
She felt a blush creep up her cheeks and looked down at their intertwined fingers. “You’re not so bad yourself, Kraken.”
They both laughed, the sound mingling with the soft chatter of other diners. Their ramen arrived, steaming and fragrant, and they released each other’s hands to pick up their chopsticks.
Between bites, Kraken asked, “Do you ever feel like you have to prove yourself because of your abilities?”
Nayoung nodded thoughtfully. “Sometimes. But I try to focus on what I can do, not what others expect of me. What about you? Do you feel pressure, especially with your family being mutants?”
Kraken shrugged. “A bit. But I’m learning to carve my own path. It helps to have people who understand.” He glanced at her, his expression softening.
Nayoung reached across the table, touching his hand lightly. “Well, I’m here if you ever need someone to talk to.”
He smiled, turning his hand to hold hers again. “I appreciate that.”
"So what are your powers?" Nayoung asked.
Kraken thought for a moment and made some gestures with his hands before giving up. He noticed Nayoung had some beef on her cheek and grabbed a napkin to wipe it off. Nayoung smiled at his cute gesture. She watched as the gears in his mind turned as he processed. It was something she had seen him do a couple of times now. Mostly when he's working on Music.
"So my powers are weird. I take the residual psionic energy that all mutants give off and use it that alter reality in a limited range that increases per mutant in the range. It also increases depending on the strength of the mutant as well.
Nayoung's eyes widened and she asked, "Well how much range do I give you."
"25 meters," Kraken answered
"So with me around I make you a god for 25 meters?" Nayoung asked.
Kraken smirked at her assumption, "Um yes and no. My powers are limited to a very specific range and while powerful are limited to my perception of reality."
"What do you mean?" Nayoung asked.
"I am a limited being. I can't know or think of everything." Kraken explained
Nayoung nodded thoughtfully "Okay, so your power is limited by your creativity and range."
Kraken nodded as he clarified "Yes. So if a telepath engages with my brain and I don't have my powers up they can do really bad things. Typically I know when one is near so that is less of an issue, but to use my powers I have let my Psionic barriers down leaving me super open to Telepaths."
"Okay So keep you protected from Psionics with my powers. Got it." Nayoung teased. Kraken chuckled and said
"Bold are you."
Nayoung smiled, "Yes I am. Besides you are my boy now whether you like it or not."
"Really in two days, you are claiming me?" Kraken asked confused
Nayoung nodded "Of course. You're my little angry heavy metal buddy."
Kraken was bewildered as he responded, "But Nayo I am taller than you by 14 inches."
"Yes, but you're heart's smaller so you're just my little guy." Nayoung teased.
Kraken laughed it off before wanting some clarity on Nayoung's powers.
"So how do your powers work?"
"Well, my powers work like so. My psionic flames cover me while I use them and increase my psionic powers of telepathy, pyrokinesis, and Telekinesis,"
Kraken nodded at Nayoung's explanation.
As they finished their meal, Nayoung looked at Kraken with a playful glint in her eyes. “So, what’s next on our adventure?”
Kraken returned her smile, feeling a sense of ease and excitement he hadn’t experienced in a while. “I guess we’ll have to see where the night takes us.”
"Karaoke?" Nayoung suggested.
"Sure" Kraken agreed. Nayoung paid for their meal and then took him to a nearby Karaoke Parlor, where they rented a room for a couple of hours. On the way in there was a claw Machine. In said Claw Machine was a rabbit keychain that Nayoung wanted. She raced to the Machine and made three attempts at it, but failed.
"I know there is supposed to be a trick to these, but why not use your powers to secure it?"
"Because that's cheating?" Nayoung replied stubbornly
"but these machines cheat. All the time."
"Well, I like beating cheaters by being better than them. Now are you going to help me or not?" Nayoung said defiantly.
Kraken rolled his eyes and let down his psionic barriers, as he put the coin in. Nayoung who was unaware watched as he upped his Luck percentage so high that the machine would give him the keychain when he was successful he gave her the keychain. Nayoung smiled and said,
"Thanks, big guy,"
Kraken smiled and said, "Oh now I am a big guy." Kraken teasese and Nayoung rolls her eyes. As they finally entered the room Nayoung hugged Kraken for the first time, well outside of a traumatic response from Kraken. She felt a cool warmth that was peaceful. It felt like a summer day at the beach. Kraken smirked confused.
"Um, what was that for?"
"You seemed like you'd be a good hugger and you are. I wonder how good of a kisser you are." Nayoung said absent minded. Kraken kindly ignored that as he searched for a song to play. He laughed when he saw his on the list but none from "The Flying Dutchman" Nayoung laughed with him saying,
"You know I didn't like "Buy it Back"." She said.
Kraken laughed and said, "Fair. I am often surprised it got so much love."
Nayoung held her hand up, "No I get why it did. It's got all the hallmarks of your art. Cheeky defiance in the face of similar-sounding music. It was a rallying war cry and killer instrumentation. My only wish it was more metal instead of a rap bop."
Kraken laughed and said, "Well then little miss Metalhead. Do you want to write a song together?"
Nayoung's eyes went wide and said, "Absolutely."
Kraken smiled as he picked hot and spicy. She laughed when he really tried to go for it on Nayoung's parts of the song, and smiled that he showed that he cared about not only her music but her art. after the song Nayoung smiled at Kraken.
"That was pretty good. What do you want to hear me sing?" Nayoung asked
"Oh that's easy Dreamcatcher, Odd eye."
Nayoung smiled, "you know they are how I found out about you." she said
Kraken's eyes widened before saying, "Wait they know about me?"
Nayoung laughed, "No but you were on their recommended video under Odd eye,"
Kraken laughed then said, "So I guess Odd Eye is our wedding song."
Nayoung laughed at the joke with a hearty smile. After singing Odd eye to a wildly impressed Kraken a competition ensued between them of who could sing better. No one really won this competition but they did impress each other with their vocal range and catalogue of music knowledge. After that Nayoung dropped off Kraken back at his hotel.
"I am glad that you're my "babysitter". Despite my earlier reservations," Kraken said.
Nayoung turned to him surprised, "What do you mean?"
"Um well, You have been stuck with me and doing whatever I want instead of you being able to be with your group. At first, I thought this was a manipulation attempt but honestly, this time with you has been some of the most fun I have had making music. Also one of my most healing times as well."
Nayoung's heart swelled. At that moment, she realized how much she had grown to like Kraken and how well they clicked, but also what surprised her was how smart he was to pick up on what Cube was doing."
"Why did you accept the offer?" Nayoung asked, she looked at Kraken who smiled at her, and then she added, "Your interviews make you seem like the one who embraces the rockstar identity more so than the other members of "The Flying Dutchman but spending all this time with you, and seeing how thoughtful you are. This seems like you would hate the fakeness of all of this. So I have to ask Why?"
Kraken smiled, "Obligation, I see all of this, and now that Cube is throwing y'all away. So why not see if I can help out at all." he explained
Nayoung looked at him with big happy eyes before grabbing him tight. Despite his awkward return she said, "Thank you for not giving up on us." Kraken pat Nayoung's back before leaving. while he walked out he waved back to her. Nayoung smiled and waved back until she lost visibility of him before driving back to her dorm.
Nayoung entered the dormitory, her cheeks slightly flushed from the day’s excitement. As she closed the door behind her, the familiar sounds of laughter and music filled the air. The other members of LIGHTSUM were scattered around the living room, lounging on the sofas and floor.
Juhyeon was the first to notice her arrival. She looked up from her phone and grinned widely. “Look who finally decided to come home!”
The others immediately perked up, turning their attention to Nayoung with mischievous smiles.
“Someone had a busy day,” Sangah teased, wiggling her eyebrows. “Was it fun?”
Nayoung rolled her eyes, trying to play it cool. “It was just ramen and some music stuff,” she replied, but the slight smile on her face betrayed her.
Chowon leaned forward, resting her chin on her hand. “Oh, sure, just ramen. And who was the lucky guy you had ramen with?”
“Yeah, spill!” added Yujeong, clapping her hands excitedly. “We need all the juicy details.”
Nayoung sighed, knowing she couldn’t escape their playful interrogation. “Fine, fine. I was with Davy—Kraken, from The Flying Dutchman.”
There was a collective gasp of delight and surprise, and the teasing began in earnest.
“Kraken? The heavy metal guy?” Hina exclaimed, eyes wide. “Isn’t he super mysterious and cool?”
Jian joined in, nudging Nayoung’s arm. “I bet he’s got that brooding musician vibe. Did he sing you a love song?”
The room erupted in laughter, and Nayoung couldn’t help but laugh along with them. “He’s actually really sweet and funny,” she admitted, warmth in her voice. “We just talked and had a good time.”
“Talked, huh?” Juhyeon teased, nudging her playfully. “Holding hands, maybe?”
Nayoung’s blush deepened, and she covered her face with her hands. “Okay, maybe a little,” she mumbled, eliciting more squeals from her friends.
“Well, it sounds like you had a great time,” Sangah said, smiling warmly. “We’re happy for you, Nayoung.”
Nayoung looked around at her friends, grateful for their support and camaraderie. “Thanks, everyone. It was nice.”
“Just promise us one thing,” Chowon said, holding up a finger. “You’ll invite us to your wedding!”
The room filled with laughter again, and Nayoung shook her head, amused by their antics. “I’ll think about it,” she joked, knowing she wouldn’t hear the end of it any time soon.
The rest of the week was a blur of discussions; logistics, royalties, and promotion cycles. This led to Kraken appearing on quite a few shows with Lightsum.
In between one of those shows and another Chowon "confronts" Kraken over his time spent with Nayoung.
Backstage at the bustling music show venue, the air was filled with the sounds of instruments tuning and crew members rushing to set up for the next performance. Kraken leaned against a wall, his eyes scanning the chaotic scene, enjoying the brief lull between shows. As he took a sip of water, he noticed Chowon making her way towards him with a determined look on her face.
“Hey, Kraken,” she greeted, stopping in front of him. Her expression was friendly but serious, the kind of look that told him this wasn’t just a casual chat.
“Hey, Chowon,” he replied, curious about the purpose of her visit. “What’s up?”
She crossed her arms and gave him a scrutinizing look. “I wanted to talk to you about Nayoung.”
Kraken raised an eyebrow, intrigued. “What about her?”
Chowon’s demeanor softened slightly, but her tone remained firm. “You two have been spending a lot of time together, and I just wanted to make sure you know how important she is to all of us. She’s like a sister to me.”
He nodded, understanding the underlying message. “I get it. Nayoung’s great, and I really enjoy being with her.”
“Good,” Chowon said, her eyes narrowing playfully. “Because if you ever hurt her, I’ll have to kick your butt.”
Kraken chuckled, appreciating her protectiveness. “I wouldn’t expect anything less. But seriously, I have no intention of hurting her. She’s… special.”
Chowon’s expression softened further, and she smiled. “I can see that. She talks about you a lot, you know.”
“Really?” Kraken asked a hint of surprise in his voice.
“Yeah,” Chowon confirmed, leaning against the wall next to him. “She’s been happier lately, more relaxed. That’s a good thing.”
Kraken felt a warmth in his chest at her words. “I’m glad to hear that. She makes me feel pretty happy too.”
Chowon nodded, satisfied with his response. “Just remember, she has all of us looking out for her.”
“I’ll keep that in mind,” Kraken promised, meeting her gaze with sincerity.
“Great,” Chowon said, her tone lightening. “Now, I think it’s almost showtime. Ready to rock the stage?”
Kraken grinned, feeling the energy of the impending performance. “Always.”
They killed all the performances and had runaway hits. Lightsum was on track to be a household name. To Celebrate this massive momentum shift the group plus Kraken had a little party on a rooftop bar.
The evening was filled with laughter and chatter as Kraken sat with the members of LIGHTSUM at a cozy rooftop bar, enjoying the view of the city lights twinkling below. The atmosphere was relaxed, and Kraken felt a sense of camaraderie and warmth among the group. It was his last night in Korea, and he was determined to make the most of it.
As Sangah told a funny story that had everyone in stitches, Kraken's phone buzzed in his pocket. He glanced at the screen and saw Mike's name flashing. Excusing himself from the table, he stepped away from the noise to answer the call.
“Hey, Mike!” Kraken greeted, holding the phone to his ear.
“Kraken, my man!” Mike's voice boomed with excitement. “You’re not gonna believe the buzz that’s happening over here. Your performances have been a massive hit! Everyone’s talking about you!”
Kraken smiled, pleased to hear the positive feedback. “That’s great to hear! I’m glad people are enjoying it.”
“More than enjoying it—they’re loving it!” Mike continued enthusiastically. “When you get back, we need to capitalize on this hype. I’m thinking we can push for some big promotions. Maybe even a solo tour or a collaboration with some big names.”
Kraken’s smile faded slightly as he caught the emphasis on solo work. “Uh, Mike, you keep mentioning promoting me as Kraken. What about The Flying Dutchman?”
There was a brief pause on the other end of the line before Mike responded, his tone slightly less enthusiastic. “Well, of course, there’s The Flying Dutchman, but I’m talking about opportunities for you as an individual artist. You’ve got this incredible momentum right now.”
Kraken took a deep breath, feeling the need to be firm. “I appreciate the excitement, Mike, but The Flying Dutchman is my project with the rest of the band. We’ve built this together, and I’m not interested in sidelining them. If we’re promoting, it’s gotta be all of us.”
Mike hesitated, then sighed, understanding Kraken's stance. “I get it, I do. But think about how much bigger you could be if you pursued this solo angle.”
“I’m already big enough with the band,” Kraken said with a slight chuckle, trying to keep the conversation light. “And that’s where I’m happiest—creating with them. We’re a team.”
There was a pause, and then Mike’s tone softened. “Alright, I hear you. We’ll focus on promoting The Flying Dutchman. Just know the offer’s there if you ever change your mind.”
“Thanks, Mike. I appreciate it,” Kraken replied, feeling a weight lift off his shoulders.
As he hung up and returned to the table, the LIGHTSUM members greeted him with smiles and curiosity.
“Everything okay?” Chowon asked, noticing the thoughtful look on his face.
Kraken nodded, taking his seat again. “Yeah, just some talk about the future. But right now, I’m here with you guys, and that’s all that matters.”
Chowon laughs and then says. "Well if that's the case there is someone you need to talk to." before pointing at a partying Nayoung. Kraken smiles. Nayoung and he had both been avoiding the "So what happens next" talk because they knew that. It was going to hurt no matter what happened, but it was now or never.
Nayoung smiled when she saw Kraken approached.
"Hey Nayoung can we talk?" he said.
Nayoung sighed, she noticed he wasn't using her cute nickname Nayo which meant this was serious. She nods and the two find a quiet end of the bar to chat.
"So what happens next," Kraken asks.
Nayoung thought about his words... she knew they were about to go heavy into tours and traveling, which meant strain on their friendship.
"Well the way I see it we can put our friendship on pause, or you can move out to Korea, and we see where the rest of this takes us."
"I am not moving out here, but my powers do grant me limited teleportation."
"Wait really?"
"Kinda. Typically I need an anchor point. Usually, that's an omega level or higher mutant, but I think I know a girl."
Nayoung pouted not realizing who he was referring to. She stood up from the seat flustered, "Who is she, and how did you meet her out here?" she asked. Kraken furrowed his brow in confusion before pointing to Nayoung. Nayoung finally made the connection and laughed heartily.
Nayoung smiled and then said, "Okay well that changes things because if I knew you'd always be a quick teleport away we could have spent more time together."
Kraken nodded then asked for confirmation, "Okay so that's the plan?"
Nayoung nodded then replied, "Yes I have custody of you on the weekends."
"That's an interesting way to put it." Kraken looked at her funny while he responded
Nayoung raised a defiant eyebrow, and asked "Am I wrong?"
"No Nayo, it's just funny," Kraken replied
"Good now dance with me," she said as her favorite song came on. The two danced all night as their hearts poured themselves out on the dancefloor. Nayoung and Kraken felt at peace in each other's arms, and just like that. A spark ignited between the two "Friends" as both felt their hearts yearn for something more.

Always with Family: A Tale of Being Alone Together
Nagai Hina
Words: 2.8k
Merry Christmas Everyone! The last fic of the year then I'll have my break.
I really want to say thank you to @iznsfw for really helping me get started on writing. Merry Christmas to you and to everyone. I hope you'll enjoy this.
Tumblr media
“Merry Christmas, Sumit!”
“Merry Christmas!!!!”
“Merrrrry Christmasssss”
A few words of the rookie group, Lighsum, for their fans as they say goodbye. Their Christmas vlive just finished. All the members are happy with the successful broadcast, waving and joyfully smiling back at the camera. Typical stuff happened; they just played games, sang songs, and occasionally responded to the comments. But of course, the girls themselves enjoyed the show.
You stand there, the one in charge of the camera. Counting down with your fingers,
Three
Two
One
Click!
That’s the end of the show.
“Okay, girls, that’s it.” You nod to them that the camera is off.
Nayoung cries, “I hope sumit will be happy with that,” jumping up and down with hands wiggling.
Tightly grasping her hands, Juhyeon replies, “I think they did. The comments were nice.” praying that it did go well.
Then, a small Japanese girl jumps in front of you. “Hi, Oniisan, Merry Christmas!” She gives a sudden, friendly hug to you.
You return the favor, embracing her with all your might.
“Hina, you have to practice your korean!” you scold her
She just laughs back, “Okay, ‘Oppa’.”
That is Hina. The one and only member from Japan. It is no secret that you are good friends with her, and everyone in the room knows that. She is very fond of you. Always telling you her secrets, especially her struggles of being an idol, notably an idol from Japan. You also always give her the small thing she asks, well you do for everyone, but Hina always asks from you and only you. Both of you have had this special bond with each other. Maybe it is the small age gap between the two of you. Perhaps you are the only person who can speak Japanese to her. Or it is something else.
“Okay, we need to pack up now. Girls, your schedule is first thing tomorrow morning.” Your senior instructs everybody. She looks at you. “Is it alright if you bring them home tonight? Once you are done, then you are free to go home.”
“Yes, ma’am!” accepting the job, knowing the day is finally done. Time to relax during Christmas eve.
“Can we hurry up?! My family is waiting for me. We are going to have a special dinner tonight.” Huiyeon pleas, being excited and all.
“Okay, girls, let’s go to the car.” you struggle to say, carrying all of their heavy bags containing gifts that fans mailed.
The girls stroll to the car, hopping up and down, chatting about how much how they’ll enjoy their Christmas, except one.
“Did you receive what you wanted, Jian?” Yujeong asks.
“I hope so. There are plenty of gifts under my Christmas tree.” Jian sighs, drained from today.
Grabbing something from her bag, Chowon chuckles as she takes boxes for everyone. “I hope you like this. My mom made cookies!”
“Wow! I love cookies.” Sang-ah exclaims, delighted about the food. ”Mmmmm, delicious,” grabbing one to take a bite.
But there is Hina, trying her best to smile once she receives it.
As all the members get inside the van, Hina opens the front door quietly and sits shotgun with you. Her eyes are on the ground, her head leaning on the window and letting go a deep breath as she takes her seat.
You leave her alone to give her some space. But all the other members just are at the back, chatting about how they’ll spend Christmas with their families. You drive, but it gets tricky once the girls start looking back and passing gifts around for each other. Hina joins them, but once her turn is over. She goes back to her vegetative state of isolating herself from everyone.
With bringing them home:
First with, Jian, not much to note; then Huiyeon. You see her run to her front door, waiting for her parents to open it. She cutely waves with a broad smile at the others before being let in. Next, Chowon walks to her old brother waiting for her in their apartment lobby. He wraps his arm around her and gives her a gift as they go inside.
Each member gets dropped off, meeting their family members as they arrive home. Hina stares at them, envious, as each member meets their family.
Lastly, it is Nayoung. She runs to the arms of her father. He swings her around joyfully, finally seeing his daughter for Christmas. He pats her head as she presents him the cookies Chowon made for everyone.
Then, Hina is leaning on the windows with tears rolling off her soft cheeks. It hurts that she cannot see her family members while in Japan. It hurts more than she sees people have what she doesn't. She sits and sobs. You can’t do much but just be there for her.
“Hina…are you alright?”
“I’m…fine. I just miss my family.”
You go off, but Hina remains quiet and sits there staring out of the window, wondering when is the next time she’ll see her mom.
“Hina, I’m sorry you can’t see your family.”
“It is okay, Oni- sorry, Oppa. It isn’t like you can do anything about it.”
Sitting there speechless, you know she is right. But you think of something for her.
“Maybe a video call will be okay for tonight?” you propose
Hina’s face is lit up by your idea. The thought of seeing her mother’s face is maybe just enough. She turns on the camera and uses her phone to do a short chat with her mom.
A/N: From here, Japanese dialogue
“Hi, mommy. I miss you!” Hina says, already crying at her phone.
“Oh my baby, how are you?”
“I’m fine, mom. We just had our vlive!”
“Oh, I’m so happy. I wasn’t able to watch it. I’m so sorry.”
“It is okay, mom. I am just happy to see you right now. Oh, here is one of our managers. Can you say hi to him?”
You wave them off, trying to keep your eyes on the road. “Oh no, Hina, I shouldn’t. I’m driving.”
Despite your objections, she points the camera to your face.
With one hand on the wheel, you use the other to push the phone to a more reasonable distance. “Hello, ma’am Nagai.”
“Hi! Hina told me a lot about you.”
You sit there silent.
What did she say?
“Hina said you have been very nice to her.”
Thank God
“Yes, ma’am, she has been very behaved.”
“That’s nice to hear. I have to go now. Hina. I still have work to do. it is nice to see you!”
“Nice to see you too, mom.”
“Love you, Hina.”
“Love you too.”
*Call ends*
A/N: Japanese ends
“Are you happier now, Hina?”
“Very.”
You pull over at their dorm.
“So, this is your place.”
Hina slowly starts crying again. Tears again are rolling down her eyes.
“Hina, what’s wrong?”
“Oppa, are you doing anything tonight?”
“Nothing, my roommates are out of town, and my family is still at Busan. Why?”
A gentle smile emerges. “Do you want to stay over?”
You sit there confused. Hina is still someone your company entrusts you to watch over. But she is your friend. Then, it dawns on you; she’ll be sad and be alone for Christmas eve.
“Hina, Umm, are you sure it is okay with you?”
“It is okay with me. We can watch a movie together. I’ll try to prepare something for dinner. I’m not the best cook, but I can make something for the two of us.”
You are hesitant. Imagine being caught at the dorm of the idol.
“Sure.” Making Hina happy is worth the risk.
She claps in cheerfully, knowing her friend will be with her for Christmas.
You pull into the garage and park.
“Thank you, Oppa.” Hina gives a quick peck on the cheek and exits the van.
You get off yourself. Hina then leads you to their dorm, up the elevator, down the hallway in front of the door.
As she lets you in, you see clutter around the living room; “Sorry, Oppa. If it is messy.” She quickly tries to pack up all the clothes around and fix all the hangers in the rack. “Do you want to watch the movie first? I know this nice romance movie.”
You really cannot object. The point of you being there is to make sure Hina would be happy, and if that’s what will, then it is.
“Oppa, You can be comfortable on the couch while I’ll change.”
Sitting there and checking out their place, it isn’t much. Just the usual. Kitchen with a small dining room at one side. The other is the living room and the racks and racks full of their clothes. Down the hall are the different bedrooms and the bathrooms.
Pops out Hina wearing these skimpy shorts, showing her thick thighs and a shirt that can hold her sizeable breast as much as it can. “Hi, Oppa. I brought a blanket just in case. We’ll get cold.”
She turns on the TV, opens Netflix, and puts on her favorite movie. You both sit there and watch. The film is a typical rom-com. But at least it is engaging enough for you. She adjusts the small blanket, pulling you closer to her. If you look down, you can already see her cleavage. Being the naughty girl, she isn’t even wearing a bra to cover her nipples.
The kissing scene comes up. You look at each other. Hina’s plump lips staring at yours. Slowly your cock hardens, popping up on the blanket. She knows it is there but ignores it. You look down at her chest. It is pressing up against you. Like in the movie, as soon as the main characters kiss, you do too. Passionately going in her mouth, then your tongues connect.
You push her down on the couch without breaking the kiss. She moves your left hand to feel her firm breast. You straighten yourself on top of her, allowing your other hand to rub on her already wet crotch. Putting the right hand inside her panty-less shorts, you insert your finger inside her slit, massaging her insides.
Hina moves her fingers on each button of your shirt, undoing each of them. Your chest, now unveiled to her, gets softly scratched by her fingernails. Her hand goes down to the top of your pants and invites itself inside. First touching the tip, the gentle rubs down to the base.
“Are you sure about this?” you ask.
“Never been more sure.” excited about what’s about to come. Suddenly, Hina removes her shirt and shorts all at once.
“Hold on, slow down.” you chuckle a bit.
Gradually removing your shirt, you dive down to Hina’s crotch, smooth-clean shaven. Breathing on it tickles Hina a bit, but regardless you lick it. Her wet juices are on your tongue. You lookup. Hina’s eyes are closed shut, but you know she enjoys it. You lick her clit, but this time your finger enters. It repeatedly shoves inside, smoothly passes in and out. The variations of you moving inside of her force Hina to scream. She grabs onto your hair as her climax approaches.
“Shit! Fuck! This is good!” Hina exclaims.
Without warning, she squirts all over her thighs, your face, and your hair. Panting, her hair messed up, Hina looks down, tired.
“Your turn?” she turns her head, eyebrows raised.
Hina stands up and walks between your legs, giving you a quick kiss on the lips before going down. Your pants are still the barrier between her and what she wants. She unbuttons the top. You can hear the sound of your zipper down as well. Gently, your pants get dropped down until to your ankles. Her hands make a line through your skin. The tip of your cock is already peeking out of the top of your underwear.
“Oh, hello there.” Hina looks excited, wanting to taste the long snack underneath your boxers.
She pulls down your underwear the same way with your pants to expose the long, hard, girthy cock. Rubbing her hands on your skin again, the tingling sensation makes you wiggle yourself, shaking the whole length side to side. Hina chuckles for a bit.
“Oppa, does it always do that?”
“Only if you are playing with it?”
Amused with your answer, Hina dives in, first with the tip. Kissing it, twirling it with her tongue until pre-cum starts to leak. Once she can taste it, she moves in. Her lips encircle the entire circumference. After going down halfway, she gets up, leaving her hand to stroke it.
“Is that it, Hina?”
“Of course not. Just wait.”
After taking a deep breath, she engulfs it. The entire length. Her tongue wraps around it. Your face can only express one thing, pure pleasure. The whole combination of her tongue, lips, and her hand playing with your balls sum up her technique. Your eyes open wide, your voice moans, and your back sinks deep. She increases her vigor. Taking an extra inch every minute.
Your legs shudder. The pins and needles feeling runs up until your crotch. Hina’s breast presses against your crotch as her weight pushes down on your thighs. You grab on to her hair, the grip getting tighter with each suck.
“Hina, Hina, you are too good….”
“If you want more… you know what to do.”
You ponder what she means. But then you know it. Your hand shoves her head down your cock. The whole euphoria is now on top of the excellent blowjob.
“Is this what you mean?”
She nods. You push her even further. The tip of your cock, now touching the back of her throat. She holds it for a good 10 seconds. Finally letting go of your grip, Hina resurfaces, all messed up from her saliva.
You want more, of course, so you pick her up and lie on the couch, facing down. With a foot on the ground and the other on the sofa. You align up your cock on her tiny pussy. Teasing her at the beginning. Hina can only moan and chuckle at all of the sudden action.
So you push in. Entering it, you can feel how it narrows as you move deeper. Hina's pussy pulsates from all the excitement. Then Pull out coated with all of her juices. You thrust in again, pushing in all the way, going as deep as you can. Grabbing onto her hips for stabilization. Instead of pushing in, you pull her closer, in and out. Those painful thrusts make her scream in agony.
“Hina, you are so tight… I can’t stop.”
“What are you waiting for? I also want more.”
Those words only mean one thing. You have to speed things up. The movement of your cock gives you great pleasure. Hina's screams begin to fill the room as your moans echo around. You breathe heavier as you move faster.
You toss her over, her eyes facing yours. Hina laughs as you resume smashing her. Soon, the laughter returns to screams of pleasure. You grunt faster as Hina constricts you. You push in deeper and faster to yours and her delight.
The telephone starts ringing despite it asking to be answered. You continue to smash Hina harder as her moans mask the sound.
“Oppa, I should get it?”
“Just…leave…it…I’m… almost…done.”
It continues to ring. But you ignore it. The only thing in your mind is Hina and how to make things feel better. But you start to think where would be a good idea to finish. Breast? Ass? Face?
“Hina, where do you want it?”
“Inside Oppa. I want it inside.”
Soon you can feel it; the climax is close. You thrust in faster, moving in and out to speed things up. Those efforts are in no vain. Hina orgasm again and moan for the last time. While you gush out everything inside as Hina wished. You both simultaneously finish at the same time. But you still slowly moving inside to squeeze out every drop in her.
Exhausted, you fall down and lay on top of Hina. She moves to go on to of you. You kiss, still feeling her breast and her leaking cunt.
Suddenly the door swings wide open, Nayoung comes in.
“Hina, I just forgot something.”
All three of you stare at each other. You and Hina look at Nayoung in Horror. Nayoung stares at the both of you, naked and finished all over each other.
“Umm, Unnie. It isn’t what you think.”
“I definitely am thinking correctly.” But her tone changes quickly. “You know, Oppa, Hina. I was always jealous of you two.” She inches closer, unbuttoning her shirt. Standing right beside you, “I know you are close. I didn’t know you were this close.” She leans in to peck you on the lips. “Is it alright if I join you?”

omg yuri was center for the gayo intto (intros to the real) AND SNSJSJSNSN SHE DID IT SO WELL OMG
yuri isnt half of the industries types for nothing 🙄🙄
okay guys we are switching gears ‼️‼️‼️‼️ ETERNAL SUNSHINE TIME BABY
SHE HAS HER HAIR IN LITTLE PIGTSILS AND SHE WAS WEARING THE BLANKET SOME OF THE FUYSBHAD AROUND HER NECK LIKE A CAPE IM FREAKING SOBBING
OH OH OH STORY TIME STORY TIKE so originally yuri just had the blanket draped over her, but seonghwa had came over and he was like UR SO CUTE STOP IT he ended up fixing her pigtails because they were lopsided from her literally bouncing around SHES A CHILD
and yuri literally kept dropping her blanket so seonghwa ended up tying it around like a cape IT WAS SO ADORABLE HWARI FATHER AND DAUGHTER MOMENT ME THINKS
AND THEN THEY LOOPED THEIR ARMS TOGETHER AND JUST SKIPPED AROUND THE STGE IM NOT CEYING YOU ARE
and she kept on running around to pop to bubbles it was ADORABLE and you could see jongho giggling at her omg jongri ARE THE CUTEST
jongho ended up running over to her and gave her a back hug and lifted her up IM SOBBING ETERNAL SUNSHINE YURI IS THE CUTEST YURI
yuri was so suprised she was like wHO TF IS LIFTING ME
but her and jongho danced with each other for the rest of eternal sunshine they are literally the cutest duo IM CRYING
wooyoung also recorded yuri popping the bubbles and yeosang joined her a little bit im crying he was smiling SO HARD everyone adores yuri sm omg
good thing yuri only has one part in eternal sunshine or else she prolly would have forgotten to sing because she was having so much fun 😭
during dancing like butterfly wings yuri ran off the stage and made a little circle running around omg HOW DOES SHE HAVE SO MUCH ENERGY
um so um .... as soon as star 1117 started playing YURI WAS IN TEARS ALREADY AND NO ONE SANG YET
she wasnt sobbing yet DW DW
but as she was looking around the stadium she just realized how loved she was, she was loved by her many friends that came, ateez, atiny, her family (both blood and non blood), and she ended up making eye contact with yuqi and that just made her tears come FASTER
because all through out her life yuri has struggled and struggled to find happiness and to feel like she was actually loved, and she has finally felt happiness and joy and that she was genuinely loved, and as she was looking the crowd she just kinda had a moment where reality had came rushing to her yk ?
she thought of everything that had happened for her to be in that exact moment, and even though alot of the memories were painful, it was so so worth it to her because she met some of the greatest people ever in her journey
she was happy to be there, to be living, to be smiling and to be healed, and she was so proud of herself. she had finally achieved what she wanted to achieve for years, and that was happiness and peace. while things may not perfect, she knows that if a trouble were to arise, she knew she would be okay in the end:(
around mid song was when yuri started to sob, and hongjoong and wooyoung both had their arms around her because :((( yuri had been through so much and even though yuri didn’t tell them the reason, they knew ;(
and the three of them just kept swaying back and forth while all of them cried :(( they all were hugging each other’s waist and looking at the audience :((( i’m not crying you are
but at the end of star1117 when everyone got the chance to talk, that made yuri cry even harder 😭, she wanted to speak but she wasn’t really coherent because of how hard she was crying :(((
she ended up having to take a breather and calm herself down before she was able to speak THE WHOLE CROWD WAS CHEERING FOR HER AND THAT MADE HER SMILE SO :(((
i’m gonna kinda draft what yuri said ??? so don’t hate me if it’s crap okay
“these past few years have been so hard for me, with facing hardships with my personal life and with my mental health, it had been a rough few years. all my life i have been chasing and chasing the dream of being happy and living life at peace. when i was younger, i thought happiness was only a dream. i thought that i would never be able to overcome all the hardships that i had to face to get here. but as i look back at all of my memories, both bad and good, it feels like it was worth it. because if i didn’t have any of those hardships, then i wouldn’t be standing here and be the person i am today. it took me awhile to get to where i am now, but i am finally happy. i’m finally proud of myself and i’m at peace at where i am today. and i couldnt do it without any of you. i couldn’t do it without atiny, my members, my friends...yuqi. my lovely yuqi is here tonight, and so are many of my friends and ateez’s friends too. yuqi was always there for me...i think she’s the person i’m most grateful to. yuqi, i love you!!!!”
miss girl was literally having the BIGGEST URGE to run over to yuqi and giving her the biggest kiss but YKKKK she’ll save thay for another time 👀👀
YURI HAD SO MUCH FUN THOUGH OMG !!!
she didn’t want the concert to end but :((( it did sadly 💔
yuri is so so excited to continue to tour though !!! it’s her favorite thing ever <33
BACKSTAGE TIMEEE
the moment yuri had got off stage and was able to greet all of the friends and family that had came for the concert, yuri had RAN to see yuqi, and as soon as she reached the girl, she picked her up and placed a big, loving and passionate kiss on the girls lips, one yuqi happily returned, infront of half of the staff and all of ateez’s friends and family 😭
both of them were in their own world , they didn’t even realize that everyone was watching them until woosan had started applauding 😭😭
ateez’s family members were like 😧😧 THEY ARE DATING ??? HOW COME NONE OF YOU FOOLS TOLD ME YURI HAD A GIRLFRIEND ???
ateez had gotten a scolding from their parents for not telling them 😭😭 and songmi had gotten MANY congratulations from ateez’s family members and many comments on how cute they were aftet that 😭😭
SONGMI WAS A BLUSHING MESS 😭😭
but the girls held hands while yuri went around and said hello to everyone :((( MY LOVES <333
jae may have or may have not scolded her for hip thrusting and body rolling so many times 😭😭
“so what you’re telling me is that i’m not hot? WOW, WOWWW, i thought you were my brother? THIS IS SO RUDE I CANT BELIEVE YOU 🙄🙄”
jae literally CANT BREATHE 😭😭😭
he was just standing there like 😧😧 when yuri was being overdramatic 😭😭 she ended up flipping her hair in his face and walked away 😭😭😭but after she screamed ‘i love you!!!’ to him before walking over to C4 😭😭 jae ended up following her the rest of the night and kept purposely annoying her 😭😭
c4 was like 🧍‍♂️🧍‍♂️🧍‍♂️🧍‍♂️ are we about to witness some murder right now ??
sakura MOST DEFINITELY TEASED THE LIVING HELL OUT OF YURI FOR KISSING YUQI INFRONT OF EVERYONE PLZ 😭😭
yuri was literally like “don’t act like you wouldn’t have done the same thing with yunho 🙄🙄✋✋”
oH MY GOD WHEN CHANGBIN CAME UP TO HER SHE WAS ABOUT TO LOOSE IT ENDJSJ
changbin complimented her on her performance that night and said that she did really well, AND YURI WAS ABOUT TO LOOSE ITTTT SHE WAS THIS 🤏 CLOSE TO PASSING OUT

CHAPTER ONE
pairing: idol!jungkook x idol!reader
warnings: 🌧 & 🌸
thousands of crowds, fans roaring both your names. people are willing to do anything to get ahead of the game, and breaking a heart for fame isn’t surprising in this industry.
everyone is using this gif but I love it so much!
Tumblr media
notes: should i do a part 2? also I need a name for y/n’s group suggestions anyone? :)))
———————————————————————
The roaring crowds that cover the stadium fill you up with adrenaline and the tiny hairs in your arms start to rise as the audience chant your group’s name. The black risers beneath you begin to rise, Zora, your group leader grabs your hand. You met her during your audition after you left the room with a doubtful expression plastered on your face, she went up to you. Her kindness attracted you and her dancing skills were out of this world, the way she moved her body so freely landed her a spot for a potential group when they announced the callbacks. What surprised you the most however was how happy her face was when your name was called to join her group. You’ve always admired Zora, she was like a big sister for you. Whenever you had a problem she was the one you went to.
She must’ve seen you tense expression because she was rubbing her thumb on the back of your hand softly. You smile at the gesture, the warmth from your hand grows cold once Zora lets go to adjust her outfit. The screams become louder and the crowd starts to chant your group’s name once you all emerge from the ground. Chanri yelled into the mic and started to hype up the crowd. You two first met through Zora, they were talking to each other the day after your auditions. Chanri was beautiful and there was no doubt that she had a lot of admirers once your group had their very first debut. Admittedly, you were completely intimidated by her and her rapping skills. The way she held on to herself every time she rapped, fire seemed to be radiating off of her body and the crowd adored her. It was awkward at first for the two of you especially since she was the oldest out of all the girls. She would smirk every time you looked at her in awe and eventually she went up to you to smack your head. “Don’t look at me with your mouth open, I’m your unnie it’s disrespectful.” She gave you a playful smile and beckoned you to join the stage with her. The two of you became close since then. 
Chanri looks towards your direction and smiles at you before looking at Nayoung. Nayoung was the last member to be placed in your group but that doesn’t mean she any less special to you and the other girls. She was the shining sun in your group, whenever someone was having a terrible morning, Nayoung was there to brighten their day. Her flashing smile is always contagious, there was a time where you ran out of dance practice out of embarrassment and Nayoung hurried after you. She discovered you crying in a closet, it was difficult at first but she managed to get you to open about your insecurities and proceeded to comfort you. You both were the youngest in the group, because of that, you two would have disputes over silly things but none of them were ever serious. In fact, all those disputes made you closer than the other two girls. She was your ride or die until the end of time. 
Anyways, back to the present, you look around at the crowd before getting into the dancing position of your recent song. They begin to chant each of your names in order from oldest to youngest before chanting your group's name. Cameras were all focus on you while you sang your solo, looking towards the screen it shifted its attention from your group to a boy in the crowd. It was Jungkook, a member of the popular boy group, BTS. He was handsome, skilled and you had to admit it, you did have a crush on him. Who wouldn’t want him honestly, he’s rich, talented, kind and at the ripe age of 21. The two of you have had your fair exchange of conversations to the point where both of your fans ship you. It wasn’t extraordinary but every time you would communicate with him, your heart would beat fast and butterflies would flutter inside your stomach. His smile was more infectious then Nayoung’s especially when it’s towards your direction. The cameraman was able to catch his bunny-like grin during your performance making the crowd go wild, he wasn’t able to do so often because it becomes the #1 headline the next day. You smile at the screen, not noticing the cameras catching the whole thing. Finally, your song comes to an end and you flash a suggestive smirk before the lights dim. “That was the best performance yet!” Zora exclaims, she was sweating but she still looked like a goddess. Chanri nods in agreement, “Did you see Jungkook? He was practically beaming at you y/n.” The girls giggled, you blushed, “Guys he was looking at all of us, we were amazing! Sexy even, people were smiling everywhere and the camera just chose Jungkook.” Chanri rolled her eyes but didn’t say anything.
You and your group were escorted to your seats in order to watch the other performances, they were mind-blowing and everyone left you astonished. The next day, as expected, the headlines were titled, “JUNGKOOK X Y/N, A NEW COUPLE ON THE RISE?” It showed a picture of you smiling at the screen of Jungkook smiling at you. You sighed and picked up the phone to call your manager. It took a few rings before he picked up and the first thing you hear from him was: “I have a plan.” It sounded so suspicious and you were worried about what your manager was gonna say next. “How do you feel about dating Jeon Jungkook?”

Snowboarding AU - Here Come the Groom(s)
A/n: Lowkey sad my last post for this AU only had four notes but that’s okay, you have good posts and you have not-so-good posts right? ;-; Anyway here’s a wedding planning post cos.. why not? also perfect gif cos they’re both in suits hehehehe
Want more of this AU? Ask me here!
Snowboarding AU : Falling in the snow | A Warm Cup of Chocolate | (Almost) Frozen Kisses | Snowflakes and Cherry Blossoms | White (maybe) Weddings | Here Come the Groom(s)
Tumblr media
Jisoo is stressed
Like... about to curl up into a ball and cry stressed
After Jeonghan’s surprise proposal, he’d immediately gone into planning mode, fretting about every single detail before Jeonghan could take his first sip of hot chocolate
It’s endearing... sorta, to see Jisoo worrying over every detail of the wedding, muttering to himself about dates and locations and food and guests, but he would much rather have his fiancé focus on the here and now
He pokes Jisoo’s cheek, and the father looks up at him confusedly. Jeonghan laughs, leaning forward and pressing a soft kiss to his cheek. “Love, don’t stress. We’ll get a wedding planner to sort all this out, okay? Just spend some time snuggling with us before we head out for dinner.”
Jeonghan’s blasé attitude about the whole thing helps slightly, but Jisoo’s mind races, wondering if this is how Jeonghan will be about the entire wedding
but... a little special (read: spiked) hot chocolate couldn’t really hurt now could it?
(It really doesn’t, and Jeonghan is so thankful Jisoo isn’t panicking about something they haven’t even begun to talk about)
That night, Jeonghan’s parents, who run the ski resort, offer the couple the lodge for their reception, and Jisoo bursts into tears, going into a full bow to thank his future in-laws for the overly generous gift
Jeonghan stands aside, watching his parents fawn over Jisoo’s emotional state, both hands occupied with Jisoo’s daughters, who are staring at their father cry into his mom’s shoulder  
“Samchon, why is Daddy crying?” Eunwoo asks quietly, frowning at Jisoo’s tears. Jeonghan leans down and presses a kiss to her forehead.
“They’re good tears, baby” he explains gently. The twins tackle him in a hug, burying their faces in Jeonghan’s shoulder, mumbling words of love.
“I love you both,” he murmurs, holding them while Jisoo recomposes himself, turning to melt at the sight of his fiancé and his daughters all cuddled up
Jeonghan asks Seungcheol to be his best man, nearly getting knocked off his feet when Seungcheol tackles him in a bear hug, yelling “OF COURSE I WILL” into his poor ear
Jisoo’s best man “proposal” was far quieter; he’d simply asked Jihoon out for dinner one night, and the producer had agreed easily, honored that Jisoo had even thought of him
Getting a wedding planner turns out to be the easiest solution to Jisoo’s stress. Seokjin plans out everything they need to tackle and writes out every deadline they need to meet, and Jisoo is instantly calmer
(Jeonghan loves watching Jisoo go off on a tangent as he rambles on and dreams of crystals and icy blues, wintery inspirations to re-live when they first met)
They agree that winter would be far too cold (and busy) for their wedding, despite Jisoo’s dream, but he also doesn’t want everyone to die from pneumonia because they want to show off their fancy clothes
The wedding planner (bless Seokjin, Jisoo might’ve had an aneurysm by now if not for him) suggests that they use the autumn colours for the wedding ceremony, and shift into a more winter inspired aesthetic during the reception
They rarely fight, and Seokjin is pleasantly surprised at how easy it is to work with them... until the guestlist comes up.
Jisoo wants it smaller, more intimate, and Jeonghan apparently feels obligated to invite everyone he’s ever spoken to. Jihoon and Seungcheol sip their coffees as they watch the couple fight
“Of course we have to invite her! She’s been at the ski lodge for ages!” Jeonghan argues, and Jisoo rolls his eyes. “Hannie, babe, you don’t even know her last name!”
In the midst of the planning, they’re also apartment hunting, because as nice and homey as Jisoo’s apartment is, it’s too small for four people
And Jeonghan’s apartment is the textbook definition of a bachelor pad; minimalist with an empty fridge, takeout boxes in the trash
They haven’t found anything so far, although they have a few viewings between their jobs, and looking after the girls, and planning their wedding and –
Okay they’re stretched pretty thin, but they just really want everything to be perfect okay?
Everything comes far too quickly, and before Jisoo can internalize that his wedding is happening – it’s really happening!!! – it’s suddenly the day of their final fitting
He’s about to leave the house after instructing his babysitter Hansol to not feed his girls too much candy again, when he receives a call from Jeonghan
Jisoo: You better not be late or I will skin you alive
Jeonghan: Hello to you too baby, and no – well yes but –
Jisoo: JEONGHAN!!!!
Jeonghan pleads for mercy, and Jisoo relents, grumpily letting him explain why he’s going to be late for their fitting, claiming that this apartment is everything they could ever want
“But it’s the final fitting!” Jisoo protests weakly, already knowing he’s going to be rescheduling the final fitting for a couple hours later, because he’s weak for his soon-to-be husband, and also maybe he’s excited for this apartment too
Thankfully, there’s another slot for them to do their final fitting, and Jeonghan and Jisoo head to the apartment, excitement bubbling tangibly between them
It’s perfect, but Jisoo wants to think about it before committing to a new apartment, because it might have some sort of hidden problem or issue, or transport could be too far, or – there were just so many possibilities
The two weeks before the wedding passes in a blur, and on D-day the wedding goes off flawlessly (or as flawlessly as a wedding can go)
Eunwoo and Nayoung of course, are the cutest flower girls, beaming as they skip down the aisle, throwing flowers semi-aggressively onto the floor
Jeonghan’s hair is almost white, creating a soft halo around his face, matching his white wedding tuxedo. Jisoo’s in a specially tailored black suit, dark, chocolate hair styled up (the way Jeonghan secretly thirsts over)
They’re perfect opposites, and perfect for each other
Jeonghan presents a set of keys to Jisoo during their couple toasts. He takes them, expecting some cheesy speech about Jisoo now holding the key to his heart
(Surprise bitch, they’re apartment keys)
“I love you so much and the only thing i want to do is make you happy. o those of you that aren’t aware, Jisoo and i went apartment hunting two weeks ago, and we found the perfect place. Jisoo didn’t want to commit to it too early, but what he doesn’t know is I already signed the lease in both our names. This is my wedding gift to you, dear husband.”
YOU CAN BET JISOO IS BAWLING HIS EYES OUT
He deadass throws himself at Jeonghan, who just laughs, blinking back his own tears because he’ll be damned if their wedding photos show how much of a saP both of them are
Please like and reblog <3 Leave comments too!
If you’d like more of this AU, or your own lil thing, of if you just wanna yell at me, you can do so here~

Andrew’s Top 10 Kpop Title Tracks of 2018
Hello again, it’s me. Yes, I’m still trying to make this a thing. Nobody cared in 2015, then my 2016 list got a decent amount of notes, then that dropped off by a lot for my 2017 list, so we’ll see what happens this time. I hope there’s even a couple folks out there that enjoy reading this, but even if there’s not, I still enjoy putting it together and writing it, so here we are. Quick refresher on how this works, I limit myself to title tracks (and/or songs that have a MV and were promoted), link their MVs, and then give a quick write-up of why I picked them, all listed in descending order from 10 to 1. I’ve changed the name from “Top 10 Songs” to “Top 10 Title Tracks” because I’m thinking of doing a separate list for b-sides or non-Korean releases. On that note, let’s get it; list under the break~
10. KHAN - I’m Your Girl?
Tumblr media
The tenth spot on my list is always a dogfight, and my honorable mentions list is always long. This year, the debut song for KHAN (composed of former The Ark members Jeon Minju and Euna Kim) won the fight, and I’m not gonna lie, a solid part of why is based in the gay undertones of this song and MV (and honestly, they’re really not undertones, the lyrics are pretty frank about it). Honestly, though, I just really adore the chemistry Euna and Minju have always had together, and I’m so happy they’re back making music together. I’m Your Girl isn’t the fanciest song out there, but it is a bop and a half and will definitely be one of the songs I think of in future when I remember 2018.
9. gugudan - Not That Type
Tumblr media
At spot nine, there was another fight, but it was between songs by the same group. The loser of that song will appear in my honorable mentions later. As for the winner, Not That Type was something I’d been hoping gugudan would do ever since they debuted. Their Produce 101 trio (Sejeong, Mina, Nayoung) have always had a certain sass and badassery about them, and even in previous comebacks you could see the other members had it in them, too. This is the song they needed to let it out, and boy did they. This track and MV had an attitude we don’t see much as of late, and the song managed to have that attitude without seeming try-hard or having an overplayed sound. One particular thing it did that I really liked was how it never entered the chorus the same way or on the same beat, keeping the listener on their toes. All in all, a breakout song for gugudan that had to make my list.
8. IZ*ONE - La Vie en Rose
Tumblr media
This song, at number eight on my list, took some growing on me. When it came out, I never pictured it being on my Top 10 of the year. In fact, I didn’t even think I’d listen to it much at all. However, there’s just something about it, something about the chorus, that made it unforgettable to me. It worked its way into my brain and wouldn’t leave. Still to this day it won’t leave. It’s quickly become one of my most-played songs of the year. I followed Produce 48 all the way through, and while I wasn’t entirely satisfied with the final lineup, I must say they’ve really grown on me. Whoever produced this song did a brilliant job, because each member has a part that fits them like a glove, and no one really feels either over or under-exposed (though I could certainly ask for a couple more lines for Nako). Just a very solid song from a dynamic group that deserved to make my list.
7. Sunmi - Siren
Tumblr media
Dropping in at spot number seven for the second year in a row is everyone’s favorite lesbian and best follow on twitter, Sunmi. Does she release anything other than bops? I think not. She revealed recently that this song was actually originally a Wonder Girls production, and released a quick snippet of the original recording from WG as a band in 2016. While I most definitely wish we could’ve heard the full group’s take on Siren, I’m glad Sunmi revisited the track and made it her own, ‘cause it’s really a stroke of catchy genius. Get away outta my face! More like get away outta my head. I just could not justify keeping this song off my list, not with how often I find myself subconsciously singing or whistling it.
6. WJSN - Save Me, Save You
Tumblr media
Another artist that released multiple jams this year, WJSN comes in at number six. While I loved Dreams Come True, there was just something very special about Save Me, Save You. It felt like they finally nailed their sound again. The last time they truly hit it on the head was with Secret, and it feels like they’ve been trying to get back there ever since. Well, they did it here. This track has exactly that dreamlike quality to it, that beautiful cosmic sound that their name would lead you to expect. Add in nearly properly balanced line distribution (except for Dawon, #JusticeForDawon), and a particularly interesting choreography, and you’ve got a recipe for one of the best songs of the year. With their next comeback on the horizon, I’m hoping they can continue the trend.
5. (G)I-DLE - Hann
Tumblr media
IDLE really leapt onto the scene in 2018 with their debut, but it’s their followup effort that makes my list at spot number five. The main thing I can say about IDLE is that, as rookies, they have no business being this good. They’re all incredibly talented, their stage presence is off the charts, and both of their title tracks thus far are certified bops. Rookies don’t do that! Yet, here they are. The chorus of Hann is simply unforgettable, both musically and visually. Vocals, raps, visuals, choreo, this song has everything you could ever want and it has them in spades, which is why it leads off the top half of this list.
4. GFriend - Time for the Moon Night
Tumblr media
It wouldn’t be a kpop Top 10 without GFriend on it, and here they are at number four. If you’ll recall, I was probably the world’s biggest fan of their first “different” release, Fingertip, naming it my Song of the Year in 2017. TFTMN arrived as their second effort at a more mature concept, and I think they really killed it here. Not only is this track a more mature GFriend, but it is also still very distinctly GFriend. For their entire career, these girls have had a sound all their own, and TFTMN proved unequivocally that they can maintain their signature sound while striding into new conceptual territories, and for that alone it would make my Top 10 of 2018. It certainly isn’t hurt by the fact that the chorus is incredibly memorable, the melancholy-yet-upbeat tone is right up my alley, and the choreo is dope as hell.
3. fromis_9 - Love Bomb
Tumblr media
The song that made me fall all the way in love with what is now essentially my second bias group comes in at number three. Honestly, I was actually expecting this to be my Song of the Year for 2018, but a couple other songs reminded me who’s boss. That’s to say nothing against Love Bomb, of course. I mean, imagine a single song making you fall head-over-heels in love with a group whose names you didn’t even know! Going into this release, I legitimately only knew Gyuri (from Produce 48) and Jiwon (way back from SIXTEEN). Now, a couple months later, I know them all better than I ever thought I would. As for the song, this is honestly one of the happiest songs that came out this year. By that I mean that it never fails to put me in a good mood. There’s just something truly special about this song. Moreso even than the song, it’s the girls’ singing; they have a way about them, where they always seem to put feeling into how they deliver lines. I can feel this song, and it wouldn’t change that even if there were no instrumental included; their singing is so incredibly emotional, it’s just special.
2. Chungha - Roller Coaster
Tumblr media
The earliest release to make it on my list this year, coming in at number two is one of the bops of a great month of January, Roller Coaster by Chungha. I’ll be honest, this song really had a good argument for being #1 on the list. If producers went into the studio and said “we need to make the perfect song for Andrew,” this is what would’ve come from it. It’s funny, actually, because if you go back to when this was first released, I was lukewarm on it, but now it’s one of my most-listened to songs. The song has nearly every musical element that I love; it’s got that retro sound, those good synths, a gorgeous voice, upbeat, catchy, great choreo. I couldn’t ask for any more, other than to have her do more songs in this style because she absolutely kills it.
1. Red Velvet - Bad Boy
Tumblr media
January was truly a great month for kpop songs, and Red Velvet’s Bad Boy has stood the test of time, making it all the way from January to year-end to claim the title of my Song of the Year for 2018. As I said when Bad Boy dropped, “Well fuck. Good luck, literally everyone else. I don’t see this being passed up as my song of the year for 2018.” Here we now stand, and that holds true. I said that Roller Coaster is the perfect “me” song, and it is. Bad Boy, though, is the perfect “me” song for my other main love in kpop; laid-back R&B. Everyone always seems to love the Red side of their music more, but I’ve always been about the Velvet side, and Bad Boy really gave me the perfect Velvet song. It’s everything I ever wanted from Red Velvet, and I’m not sure they’ll ever pass it up for me.
We’re at the end! As always, if you’ve read to this point, I love you, I thank you, and bless you. I’m not a professional writer or music critic, but I love putting together this list every year, and even if only one person reads it and finds it truly interesting, then it was worthwhile. I’m very proud of this list and the work I put into it, and I just hope y’all enjoy it. I began this list on January 1st, but it is now the 2nd (this seems to be a theme for me with this). That said, I wish you all a happy new year, and here’s to another great year of kpop!

The afternoon of October 2nd is a tough one for So Jisub to swallow. Dawon’s departure comes as a shock to all staff involved, including himself, and it will be worse, he knows, for the members of Luxe he will eventually have to tell. But So Jisub is used to dealing difficult news -- the job of CEO requires it more often than not -- and he finds himself making arrangements to visit Luxe’s dorm early the morning of the 3rd.
In the hours leading up to the fateful meeting, Royal’s CEO’s time is spent making decisions that are kept secret until all the necessary pieces have been carefully placed in their positions. On the 3rd, as promised, he relays the news about Dawon to the other members. “A new member will be replacing her,” he reveals and leaves the girls to deal with their grief for the next week. Luxe’s personal schedules are postponed until that time as the CEO continues to work behind the scenes.
On the same day as the revelation, he speaks with Im Nayoung, a former contestant of Royal Survival and one of Royal’s senior trainees, about replacing Dawon. To her, he gives time to make a decision and Nayoung accepts a new position in Luxe several days later. Neither Dawon’s departure, nor her replacement, will be known to the public until the next comeback is announced. After training ends on the 5th, So Jisub reappears at Luxe’s dorm to inform the other members of Nayoung’s decision. “She will move in the weekend of the 13th, and join you for schedules following that.” (IC and OOC-wise, Nayoung will not join the schedules officially until November’s idol schedule. She will be allowed to participate and collect points for October’s general trainee evaluation instead.) The CEO also emphasizes the need for professionalism (“Be nice to her, for Nayoung is also entering a strange, new situation”) and for secrecy (“If this leaks out, the group will be benched until I see fit.”)
As Nayoung prepares to sign the contract and move in, So Jisub orchestrates the schedule for the other girls for the following weeks. Promotions for their last album are concluding and new preparations for their next comeback are imminent. To finish out the promotional schedule, the CEO sends CHERI, ELLA, and YENA out to attend a taping of Dreaming Radio, as hosted by ChAOS’s Park Heejae. XAYAH and CELINE will be scheduled to attend a filming of Hello Counselor. While out in public, the girls are reminded not to mention anything regarding Dawon’s absence, as that will be announced at a later time.
Please note: as these schedules are granted by Royal Entertainment, they are not taken out of a group’s bank or the attendee’s debut points. Some appearances will be freely given so that a group will gain IC experience and popularity in the professional industry. 
The girls will be encouraged to attend this year’s Halloween event, in which member XAYAH will be in charge of orchestrating and filming a V-Live while in attendance with the other members (should they choose to come.) This V-Live should record memorable moments from the event, as plotted by the members, and will be streaming live from Luxe’s Channel V-Live for a maximum of two hours. After the time has concluded, staff will tell Xayah to end the broadcast. During this public event, the girls are reminded to act professionally, while still showing off their charms, and to interact with fans (if recognized) in the ways they have been trained to.
For the Dreaming Radio appearance, those attendees will interact with Park Heejae and promote their recent album “Luv Game.” During the recording, the girls will be accompanied by their manager and will be asked a variety of questions (by Park Heejae) regarding topics such as personal lives (that’s right: dating!), their experiences as a rookie debut group, the shows they would like to appear on for fun, etc. You may get creative with the questions asked but, as always, be mindful to maintain a professional image. Scandalous answers may garner netizen attention! Take inspiration from f(x)’s appearance on Kiss the Radio for this writing portion.
For the Hello Counselor appearance, those attendees will sit on a panel and judge the stories as seen on this episode of the show. The other panel member sitting in (Jung Kaeun) is your senior and will take priority in offering advice/speaking about issues. The issues discussed in this episode are personal and consist of potential triggers, so please be mindful when writing to add necessary trigger warnings to all threads/solos, if needed. You do not have to write about all or any of the issues that appear in this episode if you do not wish to. “Backstage” experiences at this show will count for points!  
You will gain +5 POINTS TO DISTRIBUTE AS YOU WISH, +3 DEBUT POINTS and +2 ACHIEVEMENTS for completing the written requirements as explained on the idol tier page. As this is a promotion month, one of your chosen achievements must be relevant to the above schedule. While most of the required content should be written about activities listed on the above schedule, a special exception is allowed for this month regarding Dawon’s departure. You will be allowed to gain points for a maximum of two threads/solos for this topic. There is a capped maximum of five solos, sets of starters and/or partnered threads you may write to collect this month’s points.
The only form that needs to be submitted at the end of the month is a verification form for your debut points and achievements. Any SP points earned can be collected as soon as you finish the requirement for them. At the end of the month, you will submit the following form to the Points Verification blog:
IDOL’S NAME - ROYAL ENT - OCT SCHEDULE (for the Nov 7 verification form)
PROOF OF ACTIVITY: [ x ]
POINTS: +00 SP [ distribute these however you like ]
TOTAL POINTS EARNED: +00 SP +00 DBT
+1 WK ACHIEVEMENT #1 [ NUMBER OF TIMES TAKEN + CURRENT LEVEL ]
+1 WK ACHIEVEMENT #2 [ NUMBER OF TIMES TAKEN + CURRENT LEVEL ]
NEW DEBUT POINTS TOTAL:
For participating at the Ghost Hunt and attending the variety shows, Luxe will earn 3 EXP towards their overall group experience!

sena is awoken by her phone vibrating frantically under her pillow. she hopes she is early enough to see nayoung still sleeping in her bed. the leader crawls out from under her sheets, careful not to make too much nose, before tip toeing over to the closet and carefully retrieving a small purple bag filled with white tissue paper, 우리 나영이 written across the front in gold sharpie. perfect, it’s all ready. the younger idol carefully makes her way across the room, entering the living room, which is, for a change, completely still. she places the gift at the center of the coffee table, hoping nayoung will see it. inside, nayoung can find a dior lipstick in the shade new world and a letter.
to. nayoung unnie
your lipstick collection might have my clothing collection beat.so, here is another one to add to your collection!have a very happy birthday~
from. sena
Tumblr media
she hopes that the two girls having birthdays so close didn’t make it burdensome to anyone else who knew them both- but sena had so lovingly packaged a gift for her and nayoung was so grateful, especially since it was the first one she saw of the day. of course she didn’t already have expectations for what she would get, anything was appreciated, but the fact that it was already wrapped in her favourite colours makes her giddy. and opening and seeing that it was a dior lipstick makes her jaw drop. she will cherish this until she’s finished using it ( but that’s just a trick comment because will she ever finish it ....? ) thank you sena!!

Remember - Bambam
Type: One shot
Genre: Fluff-ish (lol)
Length: 1,381 words
“He knew that people change. He’s changed a lot over the years, too, but it was so weird seeing someone you knew so well, every nook and cranny of their body, their deepest fears, and their wildest dreams, only to find out it’s all different now.”
Bambam shuffled in his bed trying to find a comfortable position. Giving up, he opened his eyes and tried to adjust to the dark-filled room. He reached for his phone and saw the time. It was almost 2 o’ clock in the morning, meaning, he’d been trying to sleep for hours already.
He couldn’t sleep last night either. And the night before that. In fact, he can’t remember the last time he’s had a good rest. He had been fine until he found out you were coming to town. Nayoung was going to have a dinner party with old JYP trainees and he knew you were going to be there. He couldn’t understand why you still had an affect on him after all this time.
“Bambam,” Yugyeom called out while putting together his outfit on the bed.
“Yes, I approve of your outfit!” he gave him a thumbs up before laying down again on your own bed and staring at the ceiling, still contemplating whether to go or not.
“That’s not what I meant,” he said. “You don’t have to go if you don’t want to.”
“Why would I not want to go?” His asked defensively.
“Are you kidding me right now?” he gently approached his best friend.  
“Okay, I’m STILL thinking about it,” he answered.
“I know it’s hard but the party’s not for her, it’s a chance to bond with all our fellow trainees before.”
But she’s the only one that matters, he thought but chose to stay silent.
“Just get ready, will you?” Yugyeom asked as he pulled his friend from the bed. “I know you’re going to take extra longer than usual.”
“Fine,” he said, caving in.
The party was at a bbq restaurant’s private room. As he followed the waitress to the room, he could feel his heart thumping against his ribs and despite his leather jacket, his hands were getting cold.
“Double B!” Jinsung, a former jyp trainee, shouted as soon as he entered the room. Everyone else greeted them after but he just let out an awkward smile. He was too focused scanning the room for a certain face. When he figured she wasn’t there, he was able to breathe.
“Over there,” Yugyeom tapped him and pointed towards the empty seats beside Sana.
The girls all wave and greet as the two approach them.
“It’s been so long since we just hung out like this,” Nayeon said.
“It felt like just last year we were all gathered, too.” Yugyeom chuckled.
“Because we were!” Sana chimed in, making everyone laugh.
“By the way, the hyungs say sorry they couldn’t go.” Bambam said as he started to cook some meat.
He wasn’t sure if they hadn’t heard him but suddenly the girls around him stood up.
“Mimi!” they all exclaimed along with a few hoots and howls. He sat there frozen. He couldn’t get himself to look up, gripping the tongs as hard as he can out of panic.
As if the gods were playing jokes, the only available seat was beside you.
“Sorry, guys. I got lost on the way here.” And there it was, your warm voice hit him in the face like cold wind.
He took a deep breath and gathered his courage. But when he turned to her, he didn’t know what to say. Not in a lost for words kind of way but in a should I say hi or hey kind of way.
She didn’t say anything either when she caught him staring but she gave him a timid smile.
“How have you been?” Yugyeom asked from across the table.
Bambam pretended not to listen and continued cooking all sorts of meat.
“I’m good,” she said. “I’m currently studying Accounting.”
Everyone reacted with oohs and aahs. Even Bambam couldn’t help but give her a surprised reaction.
“I know right,” she agreed. “I’m still part of a dance crew though.”
“Aw yeah.” Yugyeom said as they bumped their fists together.
“We should go shopping tomorrow, Mimi. The girls and I are free.” Sana suggested.
“I’d love to!”
Bambam just listened to the conversations around him as he ate. Only commenting every now and then. Yugyeom noticed and tried to make up for his best friend’s silence.
It’s not like he didn’t want to talk to her or any of them, it’s just that the girl next to her felt like a whole different person. She got rid of her little mannerisms, lost her baby fat, and grew out her bangs. Even the way she spoke was different. He knew that people change. He’s changed a lot over the years, too, but it was so weird seeing someone you knew so well, every nook and cranny of their body, their deepest fears, and their wildest dreams, only to find out it’s all different now. He was sitting next to a stranger.
It wasn’t long before the drinks started pouring in. A few shots soju was all Bambam needed to loosen up.
“Your new song has been stuck in my head!” Yugyeom excitedly stood up and started dancing to a Twice song while the girls sang for him.
“This feels a lot like the old times, doesn’t it?” He asked Mimi.
She rested her head in her hand and stared at him for a while. Her flushed face indicated she had a little too much to drink. “It does,” she nodded.
“We should go to that place later,” Bambam proposed. “For old times’ sake.”
She laughed. “We’re already awkward in a room full of people and you want us two to go there?”
He tried to think about it but his brain wasn’t being particularly helpful. It just made sense to him no matter what.
“Yes, I think we should.” He answered before he proceeded to pour another round of drinks for everyone.
“Last 3 steps, Mimi.” He guided her up the stairs. “You can do it!”
He opened the door to reveal a roof deck. The place itself was pretty bare save for a few water tanks and a maintenance room but it boasted a spectacular view of Seoul.
“It’s so much better than how I remember it,” Mimi said as she leaned on the railing.
“Do you still remember then?” Bambam asked out of curiosity.
“Of course,” she gave him an affectionate look. It was silent for a while before she asked him the same thing.
“It’s been on my mind a lot these days,” he chucked nervously. “You coming over seemed to trigger all those memories.”
“Remember how we discovered this gem?” her eyes growing wide out of excitement as she recounted that day.
“We were in the park and you said you wanted to see the cityscape. I was almost out of allowance but I thought maybe we could sneak in to the nearest 5-star hotel.” He smiled at the memory.
“And here we were, in an empty deck on top of a hotel we couldn’t even afford.”
“What about that time when we had to hide because a helicopter was going to land and staff were everywhere?” They both burst into laughter.
“Oh my gosh! We were so nervous we thought we were going to get caught and sent to prison.”
“And I was already reciting an apology to my mom.”
She turned to Bambam. “People will call it puppy love but I really think what we had was special.”
Mimi and Bambam met when they were just little kids. They grew up together, side by side, and found love in each other.
“It really was,” he nodded. He stroked her hair, like how he used to.
“I’m sorry it had to end like that,” she looked down. “I’ve always wanted to apologize since it didn’t end on a good note.”
“I remember begging you and telling you ‘this isn't how it was supposed to end between us’ but things weren’t really working out for us.”
“You started having all these tours around the world and my parents wanted me to go back home, too. It’s a pity we couldn’t stay friends.”
“It’s not too late, though?” Bambam commented. “I mean look at us now.”
She smiled at him. He was always that positive energy around a room. “I’d like that.”
Maybe things weren’t so different after all. There’s still that person he remembers in her.

- from @x-wearethefuture-x, Hyuk to Nayoung
This might have been a little too cheesy, even for Hyuk. Then again, the cheesier the better, right? At least that’s how he felt about food. Applying it to romance was basically the same thing! Well, maybe not, but if he admitted that to himself then he’d back out and choose to do something else for her, instead. He had spent the entire night before getting it all set up exactly as he wanted it, he didn’t have time to change plans now! He would only have until he had to leave for their dinner date at 4pm to figure out something else if he really did chicken out, and that wasn’t much time at all considering it was already past 11am and he’d have to leave here before 3. Ugh. Don’t overthink it too much, you idiot. It’s fine. She’s gonna think it’s cute. Hopefully. Dinner wasn’t anything special, really. Well, it was a fairly nice place with good food that he’d made reservations for and he’d brought her a small bouquet that they could leave in his car while they ate without having to worry much about it- the kind of typical stuff that you were supposed to do for birthday dates. Or what he assumed you were supposed to do for birthday dates. It was fun and Hyuk, personally, was having a nice time (he hoped Nayoung was, too)… though what was to come later was what really mattered. Start standard and build up from there. It was almost 7pm when they finally got to Hyuk’s place. A little behind schedule mostly because he’d lost track of time during their conversation over dinner. It’s not like there wasn’t really a schedule involved, anyway. Hyuk had just wanted to plan things as meticulously as possible to keep himself from getting too embarrassed about the silly thing he had done for her birthday. It’s not silly. It’s thoughtful. Stop getting worked up, dumbass. When they were finally standing outside of his door, he fumbled with his keys a bit though he was hoping she didn’t notice that he was kind of nervous, “You’re gonna have to wait here for just a second, okay? I need to check on something first.” He needed to make sure everything was still as it should be. After all, it would ruin the entire surprise if even one thing was out of place. He kissed Nayoung lightly then walked into his apartment and closed the door behind himself so that Nayoung couldn’t peek inside. (Not that she’d see much, but still). From there it only took about twenty seconds to determine that things were exactly as they should be, then he was opening the door for her again. This time, however, it was done in a semi-gentlemanly manner, complete with a half-bow and a sweep of his arm to invite her in. The floor was littered with rose petals (okay, so they were fake rose petals- but real rose petals were expensive and impractical!). They created a pathway past the living room and down the hall into the one, small, spare room beside his bedroom. Usually Hyuk had it set up as his photography studio- a proper desktop computer atop his desk (duh) and one of those cushioned, spinning, office chairs for maximum comfort while he meticulously edited photos in a dozen different ways… or played video games for 15 hours straight. There were also usually some ridiculous props from past photo shoots lying around- things that he thought he might use again in the future. But that wasn’t the case today. In one sense, this new set up was far more absurd. He’d removed all of that stuff (putting them in his bedroom where they were out of sight though totally in his way) and, instead, converted the spare room into a small photo gallery. He’d kept the photo sizes smaller than those you might find in a typical photo gallery- they were just a bit larger than what would be considered standard to find hanging in someone’s home. But he’d hung them with a couple feet of space between in beautiful, golden, picture frames and even put little “plaques” (cardboard spray painted gold and very carefully written on with white paint) beneath each one, offering “titles” for the pieces. There was a total of 12 in all, most of which were photos of them together that either Nayoung or Hyuk had taken. But there were also two photos of the night sky- one from their first photography “date” when Nayoung had helped him take photos of the stars. The other was more recent; a photo that Nayoung had taken on her own one night, with the camera Hyuk gave her, and then sent to him. He’d adjusted the colors, the brightness, the contrast, sharpness, everything, until it looked not like a photo but like a piece of the actual sky had been cut out and framed right there. It was realistic enough that it almost felt like you could reach in and touch the stars. Then there was a simple photo, one he’d taken over the spring while they were on a date- a field of pink and white and yellow flowers, gently kissed by the wind and sun, still painted with dew from a chilly morning just past. He’d shown Nayoung the field of memory laden flowers in his mindscape only a month or so after that photo was taken. She’d seen it before, of course, but only then did Hyuk actually explain that they were memories of her. Maybe now when she saw the photo hanging on the wall she would realize that he hadn’t been so insistent on taking the picture just because the flowers were pretty. There was also one picture that was purposely photoshopped- less romantic and sweet and more silly. It was a throwback to one of their earliest conversations (and a topic which he brought up from time to time even now): Hyuk was Han Solo, Nayoung was Princess Leia. He still had to stop himself from chuckling when he looked at it. 
“Ta-dah!” Hyuk exclaimed as he first threw open the door to the room, “Welcome to your own personal photo gallery!” Yeah, this was probably a bit silly of him. Over the top, maybe. Definitely weird. But it had seemed like a good idea at the time. Something so perfectly him that he was sure that now that Nayoung saw it she was thinking “Yup. I should have expected this.”¸ though also just random and unexpected enough that it hopefully hadn’t crossed her mind as a possibility before right this moment. He let her look at it, take it all in, as he stood back by the door so as not to disrupt her. His face was alight with hope and happiness to offset his nerves- she liked it, right? She almost definitely liked it. Probably. Uh, maybe he should have gone with the classic dinner and a movie or something. Then again, that would have been boring… and they’d just finished the dinner part of it all. What movies were even out right now that might be worth watching? Thor: Ragnarok is out. And Justice League. But, like, are either of those really birthday worthy? “So, what’d’ya think? I made sure they were still kinda normal sized photos so that you could take some of ‘em home with you if you wanted. Except that one of us as Han and Leia- that one’s mine.” He joked, offering a playful wink to accompany it. 
Once the initial surprise of it had worn off, though, and Nayoung had had time to look over her little gallery, he informed her that that wasn’t all there was. “I mean, that’s it for the photo gallery, but that’s not all for the gifts. I have just one more thing. It’s probably kinda dumb but… it can be as ridiculous as this, right? Wait her a second.” And then he proceeded to rush out of the room, returning only a few moments later with a rectangular package wrapped in sky blue paper, a pale lavender ribbon tied around it, “Happy Birthday, Nayoung.” This… this one gift was actually the most important part of it all in Hyuk’s opinion. Dinner, flowers, even the photo gallery, were all nice, but this was his favorite bit. It was just a scrap book. To anyone else it probably wasn’t very exciting- people made them all the time. But Hyuk had worked on it for weeks, months, putting it all together a little at a time to document each “landmark” in their time together- from the day they met (that first photo he’d ever taken of Nayoung, included!) to their most recent date just last week. He’d searched his mind and, after some time, had even been able to label each page with the month, day, and year the event happened. Then, alongside that, he’d given each a little note about what happened on that day, how he felt- nervous or excited or simply happy. Granted, not every single date they had gone on had it’s own page, just the actual, dates. There wasn’t much to say about all of those “dates” when they had simply gotten breakfast together before having to part ways for the day. Or the “dates” when they just hung out on his couch watching movies until they both fell asleep. But there was a two page spread to commemorate the importance of those ones, too- a bunch of photos with tiny stickers naming the days they had happened. After all, they may have been commonplace and semi-uneventful, but they were often his favorites. “See? There was a reason I was taking so many photos!” He chuckled, watching her flip through it, “I mean, I’d only been planning this since maybe April, so before that it was literally just because I like taking photos of you… but after that, it was only mostly just because I like taking photos of you and partly because I was trying to make sure that I had at least one or two good photos of each date so that I could put them in a scrap book for you. Well… compiling them into a photo album was actually my first choice, but my mom’s been scrapbooking a lot lately and she suggested that it would be more personalized that way. You know, with the cute stickers and notes and such. I think it looks better, too.” It gave him a chance to put extra time and effort into it. It gave him a chance to make it special. Even if it wasn’t perfect, it was something he thought was worth giving. A normal photo album was nice, but it would look more like a portfolio than a collection of important events and memories, “You said that you didn’t have enough photos of me. Most of these may be photos of us, but I thought that giving you a scrap book full of pictures of myself might seem a little narcissistic.” He jested, giving a soft chuckle. Then, gently, he touched a kiss to Nayoung’s forehead, “It’s not like it’s a lot. Sorry that I couldn’t get you something cool like the camera I gave you last year. But I hope it’s okay, anyway… I kinda thought it would be nice to have the photos, like, in real life. Not just on your phone or laptop or something, but where you could actually touch them. Maybe that’s a weird sentiment, but I’ve always kinda preferred print copies of photos than digital copies. They feel more real that way, ya know?“ His smile was bordering on shy, generally uncharacteristic of Hyuk but something that seemed to happen frequently when he was with Nayoung. Then, to cover up this particular moment of his own awkwardness, he quickly fell back into his typical self, grin and all, “If you like it, you don’t have to say so. But you do have to kiss me. If you don’t like it… you should still probably kiss me so that you don’t hurt my feelings.”
Nayoung never expected a fuss for her birthday. She never wanted for anything, except maybe a slice of cake and an extra hour in bed. For a long time, she’d resented it. A day marking her birth, a birth that shouldn’t have happened. A day her father had tried to ignore until her step-mother explained that is was cruel. After that, he couldn’t ignore it. Suddenly, that had felt much worse. It was only when she started staying with Sewon more that it became something happier. She didn’t suffer through it anymore. 
Now there was Hyuk. If there was one thing Hyuk had proven he was good at (and there were a lot more, Nayoung could attest to that) it was making a fuss. Or rather, making someone who had hidden from her real self feel like that self was worth loving. Funnily enough, Sewon had caught on quite quickly after her birthday last year. He’d spotted the camera in her hands when she came to visit him in his lecture theatre. Nayoung had a feeling the concept of “birthdays” only started to settle in as she told him what Hyuk had done for her, the stupidest of sappy grins on her face. Sewon had informed her it was a look that made him highly uncomfortable. Since then, however, he’d been taking it as a personal challenge to do one better than Hyuk. He was practical as ever, but his sentimentally was winning out. This year he’d given her a small music box that her mother had apparently adored. 
Nayoung had the tune in her head all day, humming it lightly as she walked to meet Hyuk for dinner. As soon as she saw him, she took his hand. Not even a second hesitation. Not a big deal. Talking was just a simple. Nayoung chose pasta for her main meal then joked they should share the plate and see what happened. 
She would have been content with just that. It was enough. Spending time with Hyuk was better than enough any day of the week. She just preferred storing up the hours into days, and the days into weeks, counting minutes as she went. She planned to count some more up tonight. Going home to her little apartment didn’t sound like any kind of fun on her birthday. If luck was on her side Hyuk would agree. 
He opened the door for her with a flourish. His workroom had been transformed. It was like… a gallery of them. Like what she had tried to do for him on his birthday, only so much better. These were not the snapshot experimentations of someone trying to figure out a new way to view the world. This was how he saw them - how he saw her. Nayoung’s gaze lingered on each, soaking up every detail. She halted on the capture of the stars. How vivid could he make such a static image? It didn’t look like a photograph. She felt like she could swim in it maybe. Or free it and let the stars dance about the room. 
When she turned to face Hyuk again, having to drag her gaze away, her eyes were suspiciously bright. She wasn’t going to cry, she wouldn’t allow that. She laughed instead at the photo of them as Han and Leia. “Yeah, okay you can keep that one,” She hummed in agreement, “Only if you agree to recreate it as the real thing next Halloween.” And she’d make the most of that.
The scrapbook was even better than the gallery, if possible. She could keep this. She ran her fingers across the surface, enjoying the physicality of it. He was right. Of course, he was right, he’d thought about this. He’d been taking photos for it all year. But he hadn’t needed that reason. “You don’t need any excuses. None.” Nayoung closed the book gently, planning to look through every inch of it, every comment later. Tucking it into her chest, she moved closer to Hyuk, resting her head underneath his chin. “Take photos of me whenever you like. Especially if I can see them like this.” When she looked up at him it was with narrow eyes, judgement melting into a smile. Nayoung’s chin bumped his as she moved in closer. “Not gonna hurt your feelings. I have to stay on your good side if I want to stay here tonight, right?”
When she kissed him she kept her arms between them, the scrapbook still there. A little uncomfortable, but she didn’t want to just drop it on the floor. “Thank you,” she whispered, his lips a breath away from his, “For today and all the other days, coming and gone.”

DEBUT BOOTCAMP UPDATE: REWARDS AND PUNISHMENTS
SCHEDULE TYPE: UPDATE SCHEDULE RESTRICTIONS: Concerns only muses who signed up to the debut bootcamp
( important note: this is just an ic update, the following post will contain information and requirements for part 2 )
JUST A DANCER
on MONDAY, NOVEMBER 21, at 9AM sharp, the 26 trainees of the debut bootcamp are gathered in the largest practice room on CJ ENM CONTENTS WORLD campus. SEO YOUNGJAE and the various coaches present at the camp stand in front of the crowd, waiting for silence to fall. once the room is quiet enough to SEO YOUNGJAE, he finally speaks: "good morning. the first part of this bootcamp is finally complete. before we reveal what's to come, we have a couple of announcements to make, beginning with 'JUST A DANCER' auditions results.
the trainees to join as back dancers, as decided by US and HONEY herself are: NOH AREUM, WATANABE MIYU, HAN NOEUL and lastly... CHOI KAI.
congratulations to the four of you. I hope you aren't sick of the song yet, because for the next several weeks, you'll be practicing it almost daily!" he announced with a chuckle.
ANNOUNCEMENT
before anyone can make a single comment, SEO YOUNGJAE then raises a hand up to stall them. "before answering any questions concerning the results, let me make an additional announcement; HAN KEEHO, JUNG WOOKJIN, PONGSAK TEE" his eyes easily find the three boys, "today is your last day at the camp" he tries to keep a poker face, but a smile still tries to break his stern expression. "actually, this is your last day as trainees; the three of you will be joining V&A and introduced as new members from their next comeback! V&A's manager is waiting for you outside, you may go right away." he nods proudly to the three boys and waits for them to leave the room to continue.
( CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR DEBUT! AS MEMBERS OF VERSUS (JUNG WOOKJIN, PONGSAK TEE) AND AGITO (HAN KEEHO), PLEASE WAIT FOR THE V&A UPDATE POST THAT WILL COME LATER TONIGHT FOR MORE INFORMATION )
REWARDS AND PUNISHMENTS
once the three boys exit the room, SEO YOUNGJAE' expressiosn darkens a little, more than upset, he seems mildly disappointed. "this isn't called a debut bootcamp for fun; our goal was to make our top trainees quickly improve skills we deem critical in idols, and also to assess who is ready to debut.
some of you have managed to surpass our expectations, while others have been content with doing the bare minimum. we're actually baffled to realize that some even managed to improve more on skills not taught during the last 5 weeks compared to those we've been drilling you on all this time. how is this happening? is this a joke to you? are you just coasting through? do you think you’re already so good, so ahead of the curve, that you don't need to push yourself further? i'm telling you right away; you are wrong." he sighs. "this wasn't planned, but since many of you seem to only learn with the carrot and the stick, we have prepared a reward for those who went above and beyond what was expected, and a punishment for those who did the opposite;
BANG YOHAN, HAN NOEUL, KIM NAYOUNG, LEE HAYUN, NOH AREUM, PARK CHAEKYUNG, PARK SEOJIN, WATANABE MIYU and YOON DAYEON; congratulations, for the rest of the year, you are allowed to begin your weekends on SATURDAY 1PM.
CHOI KAI and KANG MAXIMILIAN; for the rest of the year, you will be required to come to the office on SUNDAY FROM 8AM to 12PM for personal training in DANCING, SINGING/RAPPING, ACTING and PERFORMANCE.
lasty, KIM YUJIN, although your progress has satisfied the coaches, LEE HYEMI, of the marketing and communication team has given us a heads up that you need recentering. You will thus be joining MAX and KAI on SUNDAY MORNINGS. you will received special lessons of ETIQUETTE and MARKETABILITY, as well as COUNSELING with a life coach.”

"good morning girls! i thought we could do our meeting in a more comfortable setting today since we have a lot to get through! let's begin with the basics first.” she calls out each of the girl’s name and hands them a folder containing all of the necessary information that they needed to know.
DEBUT SONGS
“with the finale airing on MAY 5, the company wants the group to capitalize as soon as possible from the hype around future dreams and has planned your debut for JULY 10. so, if you look at the next few pages, we’ve given you the lyrics sheets of your debut songs. we’ve also e-mailed all of you the tracks so don’t lose any of it.”

NOVA IUVENTA
before the girls can rejoice over having two months to practice before their debut, shinhye goes to explain that while the group is part of the PROJECT ORIGIN UNIVERSE, the lore around the group is slightly different from the rest, and as such, will be promoted a bit differently, through its own VISUAL VERSE called NOVA IUVENTA. for their debut, called by the company 'CHAPTER 1: AMARE', the FOUR FIRST TRACKS of their debut mini-album will be used as inspiration for a MINI-DRAMA. each episode will use the themes of one of the songs, after which, said song and its official music video will be revealed. details of the drama will come in the next post.

NOVASCOPE is to be a regular show on nova's youtube account that will show bits of the girls' behind the scene, from the point of view of the manager. therefore, the girls do not have to plan content for this show and will simply be filmed by SHINHYE from time to time. here's a list of the moments when shinhye will film:
