Born June 17, 1996

As a duckling, she was confused, Birds on the lake were quite amused. Poking fun until she would cry, Now the most beautiful swan at Ty!

In 1998, Gracie got a special feature on this Mark Grace baseball card. According to eBay seller crazy-amy-baby Gracie was "given out at the september 13, 1998 Cubsbaseball game against the Milwaukee Brewers in Chicago at Wrigley Field."

In 2014 the Chicago Cubs revived the promotion and Gracie was released again with a special tag!

In 2019 she was totally redesigned with a new birthday and poem.

fame - jjk (prologue)

pairing ; idol!jk x idol!oc.

synopsis ; aera; the main dancer in one of the biggest k-pop groups in the world, Siren. debuting in 2014, it was nothing but immense hard work and perseverance (and being on the absolute verge of disbandment), but she and the four girls that grew to become her sisters pulled through. they did it. now they're performing at some of the most significant arenas and stadiums worldwide. meeting a cheeky, flirtatious and annoyingly gorgeous fellow idol that threatens to break down every wall of protection she's built around herself was not part of the plan. her career has always come first, having sacrificed and jeopardised many relationships and friendships in her journey to debut. so why does this time feel different?

story warnings ; smut, explicit language, violent & possibly triggering scenes.

chapter warnings ; none, just an overview of the girlies

a/n: i do not know how to use tumblr i'm a wattp girly born & raised.. pls bear with me. also oc is korean to help with a more realistic (in the most unrealistic fic ever) storyline, excuse the horrible google translated korean words.

another annoying a/n: siren have idol faceclaims (besides Aera) to help bring more visuality & description to their characters. love every single girly in this story & this is not a depiction of their real life personas whatsoever

part ; prologue | one | two | drabble1 | three | four | five | ...
