summary:
park jimin would no doubt consider himself to be the biggest fan of eatjin, but he doesn't have a fucking clue what to do when the rest of the world starts competing with him for that title.
or, seokjin leaves jimin tongue-tied.
note: best if you read on mobile or read it on ao3 and leave a cheeky kudos!
Park Jimin would no doubt consider himself to be the biggest fan of EatJin, even more so than the thousands of people that come online just to watch him shove spoonfuls of cheap ramyeon and packaged kimchi into his mouth, all the while spouting out the lamest (and in Jimin’s opinion, severely under-appreciated) uncle jokes. He wears this title proudly.
Park Jimin is also the regular guest.
And Park Jimin more often than not finds himself having a hard time doing both at the same time, trying to maintain a cool façade and a safe distance away from Seokjin while admiring his side profile. Most of the time, he manages, settling for a pat on his knee. Sometimes, he gives in to lowly temptation, throwing himself into Seokjin’s chest in a fit of laughter whenever he tells a joke. One time, just one, he kind of maybe overdid it a little, allowing his hand to slide from Seokjin’s chest down to a careful amount of centimetres away from his crotch just because Jeongguk was flush against Seokjin’s chest, giggling away, and he kind of maybe felt a little territorial. (He still doesn’t know if he regrets what he did.)
Mostly, Jimin’s an EatJin enthusiast because Seokjin only ever considers doing fanservice with a camera in the vicinity. Whether it’s unintentional or on purpose, Jimin takes it all.
Except that he doesn’t, because he doesn’t own the untouchable title that is the maknae.
Not that he ever acts like one, Jimin would think bitterly when Seokjin and Jeongguk play around, Jeongguk overpowering Seokjin in terms of sheer strength by wrestling him to the ground, their laughter mixing together like chimes in the wind. And yes, Jimin wants to be Seokjin’s favourite dongsaeng, that’s why he’s always his special guest on EatJin, seizing every opportunity he can get to get closer to his hyung, especially when Jeongguk steals all of Seokjin’s attention at any other given time. The same Jeongguk who tells him that trying to gain Seokjin’s favour by appearing on EatJin all the time is cheating. Taehyung absolutely agrees, Jimin absolutely doesn’t.
Fanservice, Jimin learnt, isn’t all about sliding your hand over your hyung’s crotch, it’s grazing your hand over his knuckles for a split second, only to crave contact immediately, it’s the gaze of adoration sent in his direction whenever he does something goofy and everybody else cringes. And while their fans do appreciate it when they act out lines from a makeshift script together, it’s the subtle moments that really sends their minds reeling.
Or that one time they almost kissed on a Gayo. That sent their minds reeling too.
Today, it’s fruits, and when Seokjin says fruits, he means one bowl of cherries and no bananas in sight. Remind Jimin to never get his hopes up with Seokjin.
(“It’s barey a mukbang if all you eat is a bowl of cherries,” Jimin had snorted, earning him a flick in the forehead.
Seokjin puffed his cheeks up in annoyance, crossing his arms over his chest and huffing, “It’s EatJin, not EatJimin, so I get to decide what I eat.
Jimin simply threw his hands up in defeat, an amused smile playing on his lips.)
It’s halfway throughout the liveshow, after six uncle jokes, that Seokjin finally succumbs to the need to satisfy his viewers’ (and Jimin’s, don’t forget Jimin) thirst.
He pops a cherry into his mouth, makes a guttural sound about how sweet this batch is when all of a sudden, his eyes light up like he’s found the cure for cancer and he turns to Jimin. “I almost forgot, I learnt a new special trick.”
“What is it, hyung?” Jimin’s eyes sparkle in anticipation.
Seokjin holds up one finger, giggling under his breath. “You’ll see, give me a moment.”
Jimin’s fingers drum on the glass table impatiently, in patient wait of whatever his hyung had prepared, a mischievous grin because he knows the others would kill to be in his position right now.
Seokjin stares into space for a while, as if focusing on something, and finally, finally turns towards Jimin, a satisfied grin and all, and Jimin prepares himself for something amazing, and underwhelming as it may seem, it’s more intense than anything Jimin could’ve imagined.
But then Seokjin pulls something out of his mouth and sets it in his hand, satisfied grin and all, and Jimin wouldn’t have noticed that that little thing was Seokjin’s party trick if he hadn’t been staring at Seokjin’s cherry-stained lips. Jimin’s smile almost falters.
It’s a cherry knot.
A fucking cherry knot, but that innocent little stalk sitting in the palm of Seokjin’s hand is the least innocent thing in the room right now, not counting Jimin.
“Hyung, do you know what this means?” Jimin asks, lips pressed into a thin line as he lunges for the phone, reading the comments frantically. Oh. The comment section is swarmed with comments, most of them Jimin can read, some of them he can’t, but he can more or less tell that they know exactly what a cherry knot means.
Seokjin senses the panic in Jimin’s voice, and immediately leans in worriedly, pressing the back of his hand “No, Jiminie, is anything wrong?”
Jimin looks up at Seokjin, holding his curious and worried stare for a few good seconds before replying, “It means you’re really good at kissing.”
At this, Seokjin bursts into his squeaky laughter, Pacific Ocean shoulders shaking, hand intuitively reaching over to Jimin’s knee for support, but not before smacking him in the shoulder. “Jimin-ah, you scared me! Of course I’m good at kissing!”
Seokjin blows a flying kiss to the camera.

To Jimin’s dismay, knowledge of Bangtan’s eldest member ability to tie a cherry knot spread like wildfire, the flames of the rumour licking at every corner of the internet, sparing nobody from the endless GIFs of Seokjin popping a cherry into his mouth and pulling a perfect little knot out, more often than not accompanied with a flustered Jimin’s reaction and a simple caption: ‘same, Jimin’.
Soon after, cherry knots became a trend, with idols trying and inherently failing to tie a cherry knot and ambitious fans following suit, to no avail unfortunately. And then all of a sudden, Seokjin of BTS was known for his cherry red lips and what had long dissolved into a simple ‘amazing kissing skills’.
Antis undoubtedly called Seokjin out for faking it, calling it a cheap trick, well, not that it mattered when #CherryJin had been trending as number 1 on Twitter the day they did the livestream, and Jimin is almost sure that Twitter had considered making him a little emoticon.
So how the hell did Jimin not see this coming?
“Why don’t you give us a taste of your amazing ability, Cherry Jin?” the show host – Jimin had already forgotten her name – exclaimed with an enigmatic grin, perfectly manicured fingernails tippity-tapping against the plastic cue cards clasped in her hands.
Jimin had been invited onto a mukbang with Seokjin, their ulterior motive of having the ever so famous Cherry Jin in their studio disguised as clasped hands and charming smiles and the fact that their chemistry on other shows surpass many others. Needless to say, Jimin was more than delighted to guest-star on another show with his hyung, even if he kind of felt like he was cheating on EatJin.
That day, they had guests from different idol groups come to make some sort of dessert with the theme cherry - of course - in mind. Seokjin and Jimin had won, much to their surprise, because Jimin was pretty sure that the group from EXO had done much better, but the producers probably thought it impolite to let the Cherry Jin lose at cherries.
“It’s nothing special!” Seokjin chuckles, ears tinged red with gratification, the shit-eating grin on his face saying otherwise.
“You’ll do it for the biggest fan of EatJin, right?” she giggles, placing a wretched hand on Seokjin’s godly shoulders, and Jimin grunts in displeasure, fighting the urge to stand up and remind them that this is a mukbang, not a talent show.
Seokjin grins smugly, turning his gaze towards the camera. “Anything for ARMY!"
The woman claps her hands like an overeager circus seal (Jimin is unapologetic), her smile plastic.
Somebody off-stage quickly passes Seokjin a bowl of a-little-too-red cherries, and Seokjin offers a polite nod.
Who cares about Seokjin's cherry knots when Jimin's stomach is tying knots here and there all by itself?
Swiftly, Seokjin slips a cherry into his mouth, plump lips wrapping around it before it disappears into his mouth. Jimin notices that the expression on the host's and the other guests' faces looks exactly like Jimin's when he had been watching Seokjin the first time around, and he doesn't exactly like it.
In all his daze, he hadn't noticed Seokjin had finished his pony trick, content smile and all, until he heard the host lady squealing in what appeared to be incredulity, the other guests gasping along. When it finally registers to him that he's being filmed by a camera to be watched by thousands, he plasters on a smile and claps along with the host. All in good fun.
Jimin can't help when his smile falters a little the moment the cameras turn away from him. Making Seokjin perform something like that - a moment that Seokjin had shared with and only with Jimin just a week ago - in front of a bevy of cameras just rubs him the wrong way. Jimin would rather attempt to tie a cherry knot all by himself than allow Seokjin to go on stage and do that in front of the masses.
But, of course Jimin always speaks (thinks) too soon.
"Jimin-ssi, would you like to try doing what Seokjin-ssi has demonstrated for us just now?" the host interrupts his train of thought with her nasally voice and flicks a clump of blonde hair off her shoulder.
Jimin almost visibly frowns, this host was starting to get on his nerves, what makes her think he'll do it?
... is what he thinks until he sees Seokjin's face, lips pursed into an excited little smile, and he gives in even before Seokjin can utter a single plead. God, he's so fucking whipped.
If Seokjin the virgin (a well-known but surprising fact) could do it, how hard could it be?
Turns out, it's really hard. Jimin accidentally swallows the knot along with the cherry, sending him into a coughing and sputtering mess, and his life flashes before his eyes, until he manages to finally choke it out, tattered with teeth marks. The host's and other guests' cheeks are puffed up with laughter they're very politely holding in, and Jimin realises that maybe it's better if he'd just died. Then again, dying from a cherry knot? He'd be ridiculed by all his ghost friends.
The awkward silence in the studio is finally broken when Seokjin speaks up, voice trembling with laughter. "I hope you finally learn how to cherry-sh your life."
Good news: everybody groans and forgets about Jimin.
Bad news: Jimin himself bursts out laughing, drawing all the attention back to him.
Good news: Seokjin's head is buried in Jimin's chest, allowing for an overwhelming warmth to fill his chest.
Bad news: Jimin is just resisting the urge to get Seokjin to show him just how good he is at tying cherry knots, if you know what he means.
The host laughs uncomfortably at this turn of events and tries to steer the conversation back on track. "Looks like Jimin-ssi has to take lessons from Seokjin on how to tie cherry knots."
Bad move, lady. The hidden implication behind what she says races through Jimin's mind and he bites down on his lower lip to clear his mind and get rid of unnecessary thoughts in his head. A glance towards Seokjin sends his mind reeling once again as he tries to process what his hyung may have meant by a wink in his direction.
Or maybe it was the trick of an eye, because Seokjin merely turns to the camera, puckers his lips and blows a kiss.
[ you received a message from taelien @ emergency meeting! ]
taelien AHASKJAHAHAHA WHAT THE UFKC WAS THAT JIMn thE WAY YOU CHOKED WAS BRUTAL

chimmers sigh #cherryjimin
-
In the end, Jimin realises that what Seokjin had meant by a wink was quite literally a lesson on how to tie cherry knots.
"Why? Were you expecting something?" Seokjin has the audacity to ask, spitting out the fifth cherry knot he's churned in two minutes.
Jimin has to stop himself from saying yes, but seeing the keen little smile on Seokjin's face is fulfilment enough for him. He rests his elbow on the coffee table and his chin in his palm, gaze fixated on Seokjin, eyes roaming from his eyes to his nose to his cherry-stained lips, resting on the last-mentioned a little longer than necessary.
"Is anything the matter?" Seokjin asks, worry lacing his voice, bringing Jimin out of his small daze. Crap, he got caught staring.
But he only smiles. "Love you, hyung."
"Love you too, Jiminie!" Seokjin shoots finger hearts at Jimin, smile so wide it forms crescents in his eyes, which sends a pang through Jimin’s heart, when suddenly his face lights up. "Do you want to be my special guest in the next EatJin?"
It doesn't take an ounce of hesitation for Jimin to fling an arm around Seokjin's shoulder (it's a long reach) and nod very fervently. "Of course, hyung!"
Yes, Park Jimin would no doubt consider himself to be the biggest fan of EatJin.

response below the cut. tl;dr: turning anons off. if somebody's shitty please provide more than just "hey this person might be shitty".
so i'm watching her video on proshippers vs antis. really good video. she defines what both terms "are" (in reality they're so vague that they could mean many things), then talks about weird adult "proshippers" that lied about totally Owning a 15 year old in Twitter DMs, and when she said that that's weird on her twitter, was immediately drowned in people comparing her saying that, to saying it's ok for children to die, amid dozens of other whataboutisms, ( one person that threw shit at her re-appropriated the "pink triangle", a symbol reclaimed by gay people in the 80s after it was used to denote homosexuals in Nazy Germany, onto a pin dedicated to Owning the "Antis". ) People even talked about how they knew where she lived and planned to "cancel"/"deplatform" her.
Just because she thought it was weird that adults that ship real life people wanted validation for "dunking" 14 year olds in twitter DMs.
She then launches into an interesting and oddly fitting discussion about how common this "dehumanization" is. It's a lot easier to box people into one or two categories based on emotional moves, even if doing that overly simplifies situations like this into "u good or u bad?".
and i quote:
"we treat the individuals we argue with, not as complex and unique in their views, but as proxies for sets of beliefs we ascribe to them - usually based one or two things we know about them. we just interact with too many people every day now to parse their beliefs as unique wholes, and websites like twitter are perfectly designed to engender this kind of arguing and harassment. this is a phenomenon that journalist Zeeshan Aleem described as 'disinterpretation' in a really excellent thread" - linked here.
It's fucking stupid. You need to think critically. You need to process things properly.
I've had this happen before, rumors and misinformation (or even disinformation! we can't really know because you weirdos love to obscure whether you're knowingly lying) being spread to try and turn people against eachother. i literally had to learn about a whole new internet drama involving one person who might just be a shitty trans girl because somebody that reblogged one of posts had an icon of one of their characters.
so if there are ACTUALLY SHITTY aspects about her, or any other person whose videos i watch, please let me know, and I'll happily not "Support" her (as in spend 3 hours of my life watching videos she made). I'll even condemn her. I'm sure that's what you genuinely want if you airdrop shit like this.
But i'm 25 years old, i'm a college graduate, i've spent a LOT of time educating myself and trying to help and educate others, I see and know a LOT of people suffering for real reasons, at the hands of real shitty people. i'm not really interested in perpetuating lies about somebody that very clearly stem from them literally just saying "i don't like this".
Sarah Z is known to bully people off her discord servers and her best friend is an abuser
receipts and/or come off anon pls. if this is true it warrants more than just dropping it in my askbox without explanation
