onew / jinki: you sighed for the nth time within just 10 short minutes. you were staring and pouting in front of your closet for you can't find the perfect clothes for your brunch date with onew. it was a hot day today and you just wanted to wear something cute but comfortable. however, it seems like your wardrobe doesn't offer that kind of outfit.
your eyes slowly traveled toward onew's part of the closet. his side was full of quirky graphic tees which you always find adorable. you don't usually borrow his clothes but you can't help but to take a peek at them and take the one that caught your eyes.
it was a white oversized shirt with a cute box cartoon drawn in front of it. you tried it on and it stopped perfectly on your thighs, making it look like a cute dress. surprisingly, it even matches the pair of sneakers you were wearing.
before you can even decide whether you were keeping it on or not, onew walked into your room. his hair a bit damp and he was only wearing a towel considering that he just took a shower.
"oh, is that my shirt?" he pointed at you.
"uh... yeah. do you mind? i just wanted to wear something that is yours." you sheepishly replied.
"no problem!" he beamed his big bright smile before proceeding to get his own outfit.
you muttered a thank you then went to your vanity to finish touching up your makeup. afterward, you grabbed your phone and wallet and placed them inside your shoulder bag.
"alright, I'm ready to go..." you trailed off as you saw what he looked like. "what the hell are you wearing, lee jinki?"
"your shirt?" he raised an eyebrow, clearly feigning ignorance.
he was wearing your favorite grey t-shirt and it looked pitiful on him, it was as if it can tear at any moment. it barely covered his abdomen and was stretched to its limit.
"no shit, sherlock." you facepalmed at his usual weirdness. "what i want to know is why... why are you wearing it?"
"i thought we were doing a thing wherein we wear each other's clothes." he shrugged as if his response should be expected.
"what? no! please have mercy on my shirt and put on your own clothes." you can't help but laugh at him as you pushed him back to the dresser.
"alright, alright! i just wanted to make you laugh and look, it worked perfectly." he playfully pinched the tip of your nose before taking off the top he borrowed. "also, you should keep that shirt since it looks a hundred--no, million--times better on you."
"thanks, love," you whispered as you wrapped your arms around his waist and pulled him into a warm hug.
Tumblr media
key / kibum:
after the long busy months, you were finally having a girl's night with your best friends. you stood in front of the full-length mirror in your room to give yourself a final check. your hair was styled into textured waves and your lips were colored with the boldest red lipstick you can find. your nude heels matched the little black dress you were wearing. your outfit looked almost perfect and you just knew what you were missing. you quickly snatched key's gold leather jacket and put it on. ah, perfection.
this was the norm for you. your boyfriend's wardrobe was beyond incredible especially his outerwear collection and you just had to wear them every chance you can get. to be honest, key was very stubborn in letting you borrow his clothes... at first. after all the compromising, begging, and crying you made, he eventually budged and gave up. of course, it does not come for free. he practically made you sign a contract that once you stained his clothes, you have to shoulder the bill of the laundry and the shop will be chosen by him. however, if you damaged or god forbid, lost his clothes, you have to replace them. you immediately said yes to all of the conditions in a heartbeat. so far you only paid for 2 incredulously expensive laundry bills.
now, you were finally ready to leave. you walked out of the bedroom and made your way down the living room. there, key was sitting on the couch watching one of his favorite tv series.
"I'll be going out now," you announced as you grab your car keys near the front door.
"hey, hey, hey!" key clicked his tongue upon seeing your clothes. he was now looking behind his shoulder and giving you a stink eye. "is that my jacket?"
"um... maybe?" you gave him an awkward smile.
"of course, it's mine." he shook his head disapprovingly. "only i can pull that off, by the way." he sassily added.
"wow, i didn't know the fashion police was here. you should have given me a head's up, babe ." you bit back with a scoff. the last time you checked, you looked damn fine in it.
"just stating facts, baby," he replied in english.
"alright, then why don't you take me shopping then? so you can buy me a new set of clothes that will satisfy your standards." you challenged and if he said yes, you were clearly the winner.
"excuse me, i do call you 'baby' but i am not your sugar daddy. go now, you'll be late." he shooed you off.
"okay bye," a playful smirk appeared on your face. "daddy."
this made key rolled his eyes before turning his back on you. he would very much rather ignore you if you keep on acting that way.
"it's bye now, for real." you giggled as you open the door. "love you!" you called out before stepping out.
"love you too, brat." key mumbled with a small smile.
Tumblr media
minho:
winter was approaching and the air was slowly becoming colder than usual. it was the best time to stay in the comfort of your warm home and enjoy hot cocoa with your loved ones. a perfect time to wear your sweaters and hoodies indoors. however, this was not the case for minho for his favorite hoodie was missing.
"hey, babe?" he called out from the bedroom. "have you seen my black hoodie? the one with the white writings on it."
"what's that, i didn't hear you?" you went inside a few seconds later.
and there it was, his favorite hoodie being worn by his favorite person. you looked smaller while wearing it since it was way too big for you. the hem almost touched your knees and your whole arms were lost inside the sleeves. he can't help but smile at the sight.
"nothing, i was just looking for my hoodie but it looks like i found it." he gestured at the clothes you were wearing.
"oh, shoot. sorry, i didn't tell you that i borrowed it." you hit your forehead with your palm.
"it's okay. you're free to use them anytime, anyway." he patted the top of your head.
within the last few weeks, minho noticed that you sometimes wear his clothes. it was not a daily thing though and you even asked for his permission. slowly, it became every day and he would just be surprised to see you walking around the house parading his jackets and sweaters. he didn't mind it though, he was just curious about what you do to your own clothing. also, he hoped that he still had some remaining tops for himself during the cold season.
well, guess luck was not on his side.
his eyes were staring at his closet wherein there was only one jacket left, one. you followed his gaze and you promptly felt the warmth raised to your cheeks. you were surely red from embarrassment now. you were happily wearing his clothes that you didn't have the time to count how much was left.
"oh my god, i'm sorry! i didn't--" you cut yourself off as you watched him put on the lone jacket from his dresser. "i'm sorry, i didn't notice it. i just... can't help myself. your jackets are so comfortable and warm compare to mine." you tried to explain yourself. also not to mention that they all smelled just like him.
"don't worry about it." he reassured you as he placed his arm around your shoulder. "just be mindful next time. i might end up half-naked someday, you know."
"how can you be so sure that's not my goal?" you teased before sticking your tongue out.
he laughed at your silliness and then pressed a soft kiss on your warm forehead. you decided to make a cup of hot cocoa for him as a peace offering.
Tumblr media
taemin:
it was past midnight and it was raining cats and dogs outside. you visited taemin in his apartment for a stay-at-home dinner date but a storm came before you can even go back home. taemin then convinced you to spend the night there instead. it was not a big deal anyway since you stayed over a lot of times already. you just didn't bring your sleepover bag with you and the dress you were wearing was definitely not comfortable to sleep on.
your caring boyfriend of course promised to ease your worries. the two of you shared a warm bath after dinner and he lent you his clothes for you to change to. so that was how you ended up on his couch, fighting off sleep because the show you both were watching always had a cliffhanger ending per episode. you two needed some answers before you can drift off to sleep peacefully. it was the weekend tomorrow anyway so staying up late won't hurt that much.
your head was laying on his lap while his right hand was playing on the locks of your hair and his left one was comfortably resting on the top of your hip. his hand would occasionally rub circles on the exposed skin. as much as you hate to move from your cozy spot, you had to or else you might end up dozing off right there and then. not to mention, him playing on your hair does not help at all.
you slowly got up from the sofa as you tried to stifled a yawn. "i'll just go get some cold drink." you pushed yourself up from your seat.
you then raised your arms and stretched with a satisfied groan. your shoulders and back were sore after laying down for more or less 3 hours. you can even hear your joints cracking from stretching out. also, you felt the shirt you were wearing raised up.
taemin's shirts were not overly huge for you whenever you wore them. the hem barely covered your behind and right now you were sure that a tiny portion of your buttcheeks was peeking through the white tee. you weren't conscious about it, taemin saw much more than that anyway.
suddenly, you felt a slap across your behind which made you freeze on your spot. you looked behind and saw your boyfriend confidently leaning on the couch with his legs crossed.
"did you just slap my butt?" you inquired.
"uh-huh," he nodded with a cocky grin. "want me to spank you again?"
you frowned a little as you processed the sudden change of mood. taemin won't deny it though, seeing you in his shirts always made his heart skip a bit and his breathing ragged. you always looked effortlessly sexy in them.
"sure, why not?" you replied wickedly after a few seconds of silence.
taemin processed your answer in a split second and he hastily grabbed you by the waist and threw you on his broad shoulders. he did not forget you give you another smack on the ass when he made his way toward the bedroom, the television was completely forgotten.

Solace 3/?
Pairing: Onew/oc, Onho
Raiting: pg:13 for the moment
W/c: 1.8k
Summary: All Jinki has ever known is written away with a few signatures arranging his mating with the future Chief of Pack Choi.
Warnings: Mpreg, omegaverse, you know the deal  (There is mention of possible rape and darker themes, but nothing of that sort will happen Also, there will be a bit of Jongyu in the end of this and the start of the next chapter as Jonghyun helps him through it all.)
First part, Second Part
Can read on Ao3 and AFF as well
         Jinki lets his hood fall from his head as he rides his horse harder to get to the caravan’s front after all the horses had stopped. The snow had stopped earlier that morning, the path was clear up the last mountain before they reached the valley the Choi Pack called their home. When they had packed up camp and headed out, Jinki had been told they’d make it back in less than two days and that he’d see the edges of the villages by the end of the day. Pulling the reins, his horse came to a stop beside Minho, who almost immediately looked over, smiling. “Why have we stopped?”
         He lifted a gloved hand, gesturing toward the horizon. “There’s been an avalanche.  Either we wait it out or we take the harder path to the west around the mountainside. The path isn’t wide enough for the wagons.”
         Panic began to form in his chest. “How long would those choices take?”
         “About the same. Two additional weeks.”
         “Two weeks?” He breathed out. His heat was due before then and if they weren’t going to be back in the pack, Jinki didn’t want to think about what that meant for their plans. “I was assured we’d arrive before my heat hit.”
         Minho slowly turns his head, realization dawning over his features. “How long?”
         “I’m due in just under a week.” Soon his heat would descend over the camp like a lightning strike in a bare field of wheat. A shiver ran up his spine as he gripped his reins tighter. He knew what happened to unmated omegas who were unlucky enough to get their heat somewhere unsafe. Sure, his guards would do everything in their power to protect him, but what could they do if his future mate intended to go through with their agreement even out in the bitter cold of the mountain? Could they protect him from that?
         He whips his head back over to Minho when a hand gently touches his knee. The man’s big eyes are warm and kind, and the knot in his chest unwinds slightly. “Nothing will happen to you up here that you don’t consent to. I promise you that.”
         “How can you promise me that?” His voice shifts accusatory without him meaning to, and he bows his head as he softens his voice in explanation, “I’m an unmated omega in a camp full of Alphas.”
         “Because if I single one of my men lay a hand on you they’ll lose it.”
         “And what of your brother?” Jinki’s hands begin to ache with how tight he’s holding onto the leather of his reins, but he can’t make himself release it. “My fate lies in your brother’s hands. If he wishes to take me on his mountain top there’s little I can say or do to stop him.”
         “Do you want him to?”
         “What does that have to do with anything?” Gods, he wanted to vomit. His stomach churned uncomfortably as his thoughts spiral to the darkest of what-ifs.
         “Hey, lessen your grip before you hurt yourself.” Minho’s fingers are rough from callouses but warm. His touch is gentle and fleeting over Jinki’s knuckles, but it makes Jinki loosen his grip finally. “Do you want him to consummate your mating up here?”
         “No,” Jinki squeezes his eyes shut, willing his hands to not shake. He takes a deep breath and meets Minho’s gaze once again. “No. I don’t.”
          “Then he won’t touch you. I hope you can trust my word on that.” Jinki against his better judgment found himself doing just that. Trust. Such a simple word with such heavy meaning. Something about Minho made him want to trust him and with a few more deep breaths, Jinki felt himself calm down slightly. At least his hands didn’t feel like they were leaves shaking in the wind. “I’ll let my Father know of the developments. Send someone to me for anything you may need to get through this, alright?”
         “Alright.” Minho flashes another pretty smile before lifting his reins to guide his horse to the right. Before he could kick the side of the horse to move quickly, Jinki called out, “Hey Minho?”
         Minho looked over his shoulder, twisting to look at him. “Yes?”
         “Thank you.”
         The smile on the man’s face widened, but all he did was nod his head once before turning back around and kicking the side of his horse. The snow billowed where the hooves pushed against the ground, trotting off to the distance where the Choi Chief was.
-----
         Their best option was rounding back and making camp in the cave, setting up a separate well-heated tent for Jinki while he went through his heat. The further he was from the bulk of the men the easier this would be. Granted, the mated wolves wouldn’t be as affected, same as the Betas. It seemed most of Jinki’s guards were betas, and Minho wonders if that’s on purpose. As he waited for his brother and father to find him, Minho gazed back to where he had left Jinki. The man was surrounded by his guards, inside the tight circle with him was his beta friend and his two closest guards. From this distance, it was difficult to make out facial expressions, but his shoulders weren’t so taut with fear. Knowing he was being taken care of, Minho turned to focus on his approaching family.
         “Has Lee's convoy been told of the developments, son?”
         “Yes Father, but there’s more.” He made sure his shoulders were squared, hands lose around the reins in his lap, and kept his voice steady even as nerves bubbled in his chest. He knew neither of his family would take the news well. Especially his brother. “Jinki is due for his heat in less than a week.”
         Myungdae’s brows lifted as their father spoke, “Well, then we must set up a private tent for the agreement to come to-”
         “No consummation of the mating will be taking place on this mountain,” Minho cleared his throat as both Alphas stared knives into him. “He agreed to mate in the safety of our pack’s home, not on frozen ground.”
         “The agreement was for his earliest heat to be used. I have a right to complete the bond.” Myungdae then grumbled quietly, barely heard over the sound of the wind and horses around them. “He should be lucky we’d give him the privacy of a tent.”
         Before Minho could even think through the spike of fury rising through him at the comment, their Father smacked the back of Myungdae’s head. “He is to be your Mate. Treat him with respect.”
         “I gave him my word he’d not be touched. That’s the end of this conversation.” Minho gripped his reins tighter and tugged, turning his horse to the left, “Now if you excuse me, I have to get the men ready to return to the cave.”
------
         Jinki ducked under the flap held open for him and gently kicked off his shoes just inside the tent. Jonghyun was close behind him, eyes following the Alpha across the room. “I hope this will work out. It’s the best we could do.”
         He expected the thin tarp underneath his feet to be cold from the ground but was pleasantly surprised to find the furs soft against his skin and warm to the touch. In the dim light of the lantern in Minho’s hand, Jinki could see more than enough pillows were provided along with blankets and furs for the cold. “It’s more than I expected. Thank you.”
         “I’ll let you get situated.” Jinki was aware that Minho and Jonghyun were quietly talking outside of the tent, but he paid them little attention. He trusted Jonghyun with everything in him, so whatever he thought was important he didn’t need to know. Instead, he knelt slowly into the center of the tent and ran his fingers over the soft furs laid out. It wasn’t the safety of his nest back home, but it was comfier and easier to relax in than what he feared had been the outcome waiting for him. The flap swished as it fell close again, but he made no move to get up. He knew Jonghyun’s scent almost as well as his own.
         “Everything alright?”
         “Huh- yeah. I wanted more information about what they’re doing to protect you from their end.” Jonghyun wiggled off his furs as he sat in front of him, smiling as he patted Jinki’s knees. “Believe it or not, I trust Minho to keep his word. Something tells me he’s the only reason you’re not mating this time.”
         “What makes you say that?”
         The beta shrugged, glancing at his lap for a moment. “The way I keep catching Myungdae looking at you, the pheromones coming off of him. He’s angry. Possessive.”
         Thinking about how much Minho had done for him made his chest warm and a soft smile pulling at his lips. Even if his mating to Myungdae never ended up being the loving relationship he hoped it could grow to be, Jinki had a feeling that he’d always have a friend in the younger Alpha. “I didn’t want it to come to fighting to protect me. Whoever is responsible for this has my utmost gratitude.”
         As silence fell, Jinki pulled a pillow into his lap to tightly hug it into his chest, chin pressed into the concave top. His skin was beginning to tingle, heat settling in his core, and Jonghyun’s bottom lip was looking a lot more interesting. In the past, he had spent his heats intertwined with the beta more times than not, but others Jonghyun had helped him through them without ever touching him sexually. He wasn’t sure which, or either, would be used this time. Myungdae probably wouldn’t find another pleasing him through his heat instead acceptable, but the comfort and safety Jonghyun brought almost made Jinki melt at just the thought.
         He squinted as that bottom lip thinned out before realizing it was because Jonghyun was chuckling. “You’re staring.”
         “It’s the hormones. I apologize.”
         “That’s quite alright.” Jonghyun leaned back on his palms, his fingers curled slightly in the furs under them as he gazed across at Jinki with a gentle expression. “How do you feel?”
         “It’s close. Maybe midday tomorrow at the latest.”
         “How do you want to do this one?”
         “I don’t know.” He mumbled, suddenly fatigued as his eyes fought to stay open. “As long as you’re here.”
         “I won’t leave. I promise.”
         But Jinki already knew that. Jonghyun was always there, regardless, always.

SHINee As Chefs
Another addition to the SHINee As [Blank] series. Title is pretty self-explanatory. I’m having a lot fun with these and I hope everybody else is too!
Jinki
Key’s mentioned before that Jinx makes really good Korean food, so that’s his specialty
His parents own/owned a meat shop, right? You know that he and the boys are getting the good stuff
Despite popular belief amongst most people that know him, he has never once injured himself or someone else when in the kitchen
Watching him work is like watching art being made, the man knows what he’s doing
Though seeing him with a cleaver is still a bit unnerving for everybody
Literally doesn’t measure or weigh any of his seasonings, he just knows in his soul how much to put in. Somehow his dishes always turn out great
His one fatal flaw? He “tests” his food too much
One time he made dak-galbi and by the time he was done “testing” it, it was like half gone
Random waiter: “Chef, why is the customer’s dish so small?”
Onew, sauce clearly on his mouth: “...For the Aesthetic.”
Speaking of the small dish trend, Jinki LOATHES it
Why go to a restaurant if you’re just going to leave hungry?
He doesn’t care if the ingredients were imported all the way from the North Pole. It doesn’t matter if it’s topped with 24k edible gold and actual diamonds, he’s not paying $200 for an entrée that’s barely the size of his fist and he wouldn’t ask his customers to do so either
If you go to his restaurant, your’re leaving full and with leftovers
Jonghyun
Jonghyun’s a sweet guy, so I thought that his specialty could be desserts and pastries
Another one who is guilty of “over-testing” his food, though he isn’t quite as bad as Jinki
“Missing pieces imply that things are good and in high-demand!”
Sure Jjong, sure it does
Is really good at making super intricate designs on his cakes
Like, scarily good
Sometimes, when he’s bored or stressed on the job, he’ll just start furiously making a massive amount of macarons
Like “Jjong, why are you making macarons at 9:00 at night???” “Because I’ve lost control of my life, that’s why!″
Speaking of macarons, it’s because of him that everybody in the kitchen knows the difference between macarons and macaroons
There was one time where Minho got to two mixed up and Jonghyun just launched into full-on teacher mode
He had a slideshow and everything
Like, did he have that already made in case needed it? Did he manage to put it together in like 2 minutes? Nobody knows
Kibum
Chef Key’s specialty is European cuisine, namely French and Italian
His signature chicken stew (which, to me, seems to be at least partially inspired by French coq au vin) is one of the restaurant’s best sellers during the Winter
Constantly torn between liking the tiny dish aesthetic, and wanting customers to eat a lot
He may not technically be the head chef, but that doesn’t stop him from running a tight ship
He always looks like he knows exactly what he’s doing but truthfully, he sometimes doesn’t
90% of the time he’s just throwing in things that he thinks would taste good together and hoping for the best, no standard measurements or anything
He once made a fantastic cream sauce this way, do you think he was ever able to replicate it? Hint: he wasn’t
It honestly keeps him up at night
He has this air of a serious, professional chef about him, but he still does the wall test to make sure his spaghetti is done
Actually got his start as a professional chef because of his YouTube channel, Cheongdam Keytchen
May or may not have started Twitter beef with Gordon Ramsay
Minho
His specialty was a bit difficult to decide on, but I think that he’d be a chef that takes classic comfort foods and makes them his own way
Do not go to his restaurant unless you are actually hungry
“Oh, you’re full? Just have one more plate.”
He’s like a grandma who will just keep feeding you no matter what
Grandma Minho
Swears that his secret ingredient is love
Literally blows a kiss to all the dishes he makes
Likes drizzling his sauces into shapes like hearts and smiley faces
Weirdly good at cooking with fire
It’s because he has flaming charisma
He’s one of those people who can take a random bunch of ingredients and make a whole meal from them, no matter how strange they might be
SCREAMS at the television whenever shows like Chopped and MasterChef are on
“YOU HAVE 2 MINUTES LEFT, YOU CAN’T MAKE A WHOLE NEW DESSERT IN THAT AMOUNT OF TIME!”
Guy Fieri is his role-model
Taemin
His specialty is Japanese cuisine as well as pretty much any type of meat
A really good chef, but also a really accident-prone chef
They have a whiteboard in the kitchen that says “Days Since Taemin Has Started A Fire”
(His record is 60)
The higher that number gets, the more worried everyone is
His knife-work is scarily good though
Stuff like making apples look like roses? He can do that in his sleep
He kinda just goes into a trance while he’s doing it and tbh, it kinda freaks everyone out a bit
I 100% believe that he’s lost his phone in the fridge or walk-in freezer before
And the one time he was careful to not put his phone down anywhere he could lose it, he accidentally dropped it into a pot of miso soup
Nothing really fazes him in the kitchen
Like, even things that SHOULD worry him, he’s just like “Ehh”
Literally, a pan on the stove next to him caught on fire once (NOT because of him) and he just kind of looked over at it, dropped a lid on it, and went straight back to what he was doing
He honestly has the self-preservation instincts of somebody who has seen whatever creator they believe in and was NOT impressed

- onho -
minho and jinki are drunk and in minho's mind this scenario went differently 
onew/minho // pg // domestic fluff~ // 1.7k
Choi Minho is flummoxed. He's been so outdone, his competitive nature is eclipsed, he really does have to stare agape instead of being upset. Did he drink too much? No, surely the man beside him holding out a ring that looks grabbed out of a game dispenser is the drunk one. Minho poured him too many glasses, wanting him to, of course, have a good time because the dinner was on Minho, as was the idea to take a walk near the river afterwards. 
"I think we should get married.." Lee Jinki repeats. The ring is held out between the two, both sitting at a bench beneath streetlights, barely bothered by a few passersby also drawn to a night stroll along the river just outside the large city.  
"We've been together for five years.." from behind glasses Jinki squint at the sky, thinking, "..seven.. years? -- a long time," he a flashes a big, dopey grin. 
Minho doesn't know how to respond. It's not that he hasn't thought of ways to spend the rest of his life with Jinki; one of them being marriage and even briefly discussed between them but always seemingly a fantasy considering social limitations. That didn't stop them from moving into an apartment together two years ago. While they both have separate bedrooms, when it's just the two of them they often end up in each other's beds sleeping cozily side by side, because sharing a bed has become natural. 
But this now, in Minho's mind, it has always been himself that proposes. The foolhardy romantic of the two, in some extravagant event after weeks of the perfect planning, with an unforgettably romantic experience and no way Minho could be turned down in the end. Minho had never considered Jinki would beat him to the punch. Jinki would be lying if he tells anyone he's not a competitive person himself, but thinking in terms of competition in this regard is half of why Minho is so stumped. It's not a match. Neither has to make it to first place. There is no grand strategy Minho has to win. He's befuddled. 
So Minho's first words, his reply, is "But it's not legal yet," voice a thicker slurring lisp than usual. He is drunk, among other things. 
"What was that?" 
Minho repeats himself, pronouncing his words more precise. 
Jinki blinks. His head falls back with belly laughter.
Minho's been busy of late; the one often out of country on international flights as a flight attendant, while Jinki's work keeps him long hours behind an office desk. A dinner was supposed to be a means of trying to make up for Minho's absence lately on a new schedule after promotion to an international airlines. Though It's not really Jinki who blows up Minho's phone prying for reassurances they're doing the right thing, the risks are worth it because they love each other that much, it's always been Minho against an unchanging Jinki comfortably set in his ways. Could Minho really have missed recent political events around him? Jinki is the forgetful one, not Minho. 
"Not here. We could go overseas, you know. It's legal in other places."
Of course Minho has considered that, surely, probably. "You know you are drunk, right?" 
"So are you," Jinki retorts in polite manners, catching Minho in formal speech while addressing the older man like he does while drunk. 
"I am not," Minho knows better but defends himself nonetheless, like their usual, comfortable shtick. His brows furrow with a slight frown. He feels more defensive than usual, and it's not because of the alcohol intake for himself, moreover a thought creeping that Jinki is too drunk to comprehend what he's asking and would feel pressured to live up to it after sobering up. Minho wouldn't be able to live with himself if he tried to pressure Jinki into something so significant; it would mean family and extended acquaintances would know the true nature of their relationship in a society not very accepting yet, and facing that some might cut them off in hurtful ways they have discussed before. 
But if Jinki didn't mean it, Minho doesn't know what he would do with himself. It would hurt more than he would want to consciously acknowledge. He has matured in the last few years, discovering himself in more ways than just the realization he is attracted to men, and more startling he is only attracted to men. Minho found he uses his outgoing personality to mask his weaknesses, like the fact that he is more sensitive a person than he lets on.  
But Jinki knows that. Jinki had uncovered it before Minho had faced it himself personally because Minho is a stubborn soul. If Jinki doesn't really mean what he's saying right now, how could Minho ever be able to propose himself after that. He tries to give Jinki room to back out still, say it's all just a gag, before it's too late. Self-preservation. 
"..that's a toy.." Minho points at the ring. The young man is in fact Minho's senior, but here he is, a fake ring with an anything-but-romantic proposal like one of his common jokes. Or slightly less common: teasing specifically of Minho. 
"Oh shoot!" Jinki sits upright, expression suddenly distressed. "It is?" 
It fools Minho for a moment, chest clenched with concern, then he understands the joke being had. He cracks a small grin, able to be swayed by Jinki's charm. Since the day they met when they were both younger and more foolish, Minho has been captivated by it. Minho could almost worship it, and by then he knew he had fallen truly head-over-heels for someone. 
"..you finally smiled," Jinki says, drunken eyes crinkled with delight behind his round glasses. "I love how you smile, I love the way you talk and laugh," he takes a deep breath, continuing. "..I love how your confidence gives me my own. I love how you make me feel like the only person on earth. You became my friend, you have always been so nice. If it weren't for you, I don't know what I would be. That's why.." Jinki's rambling trails off, his body tensed up as his head drops, like more spilled out than intended because of holding back something for too long. 
Minho stares, dumbstruck as he absorbs what has been said to him. Jinki isn't one to express himself in this way often. Usually drunk when he does. He certainly must be drunk. Nonetheless, butterflies overtake Minho, leaving him unable to interject at this point. He really hopes Jinki knows what he's doing here. The point of no return is upon him. 
"I swear I'm not really that drunk." Jinki looks up with a clearer gaze and smile absent as he speaks with a serious, yet slightly timid voice. "I know what I'm doing. I'm just.. not good at this stuff, like you," he sighs, ".. but you know me better than anyone, right?"
The two have found they do make up for each others shortcomings. 
Minho hides a bit of a laugh, but it's a sobering shot through the heart finding Jinki really is being sincere, that this is him really trying and not some cruel joke at Minho's expense or a half-hazzard plan. Jinki likes jokes, uses it to disguise some awkward nature in himself, but he isn't stupid. He's more thoughtful than he's given credit for by his peers. It's almost as if a privilege Minho knows that side of Jinki. 
"I didn't expect you to beat me to this," Minho gestures. "I had it planned out differently." The years of friendship to lovers, it all leading to such an important moment hasn't been like the movies. Though nothing about Minho's romantic life is what one would see in the cinema, so why did he spend so much time thinking it would be in the end? "And there were lots of flowers and.. a real ring."
Jinki looks around, spotting a shrub of flowers among a patch of landscaping, then brows arch as he whips his head back around to face Minho, like a jolt of shock struck him. "You've really been thinking about us like that?"
"I have," Minho's glazed eyes from drink mismatch his confident posture, "but more romantically."
It falls quite between the two, but a simple look leaves both able to read each other, even when flushed with dizzying alcohol. Jinki doesn't have to ask again, because the answer to his proposal is obvious now. But the older fumbles in some grass near the bench, a fist full of flowers, possibly weeds, yanked up before making his way to one knee in front of Minho's wide-eyed stare. Still in a state of disbelief and butterflies, Minho is unable to look anywhere but down at Jinki, the overhead light catching his glasses, that cute big grin on his face, this man holding out a ring and flowers towards him. 
"Marry me, bitch."
Minho slumps in a fit of goofy laughter and squeaking giggles, and he offers his hand as Jinki takes it to slide the ill-fitting ring on a pinky. Minho laughs even more, wearing some child's ring no less. Jinki also caught up in the laughter mumbles about ring band measurements, how he couldn't even fit it on his own stubby pinky. 
"Let's get married." Minho kisses the top of Jinki's head, lingering a moment in that familiar scent he can't get enough of, then pulls the man's comforting warmth into an adoring embrace. 
Minho already knew who he wanted to spend the rest of his days with some time ago, as if it just dawned on him in one single day back then, leaving him in that similar daze to the time he realized he was actually in love with someone. He might have been beaten to the punch in this instance, but that only reaffirms he's made the right choice in life; they're compatible. He wants to be with this perfectly imperfect man. 
No doubt as long as they have each other and are doing this together, they will be capable of doing anything and everything. 
The risk is worth the reward, or better put: Minho doesn't think about anyone around them while they're beneath dim streetlights. He presses a kiss to Jinki's smiling lips, surprising the older with a bold display of public affection. 
It doesn't matter if anyone is watching. 
"I love you."

It’s Not Christmas Yet
Pairing: Lee Jinki (Onew) x reader
Genre: birthday au / fluff / Christmas
A/N: It’s been SEVEN WHOLE YEARS since I last wrote for the love of my life, Lee Jinki! I cannot believe I haven’t written him in so long! As usual, I have been writing stories for my biases on their birthdays and this one is probably one of my favourites I’ve done. I hope you enjoy this fiction, and Happy Birthday Jinki, I hope you’re settling into your military life well enough <3333
Word count: 1286
Tumblr media
He couldn’t understand why you were acting so out of character this year.
It was December and Jinki knew very well what this month meant to you. It was your favourite time of the year because you loved Christmas. When you had found out he was born in December you had grinned from ear to ear at him.
“Of course you were, that makes you even more special to me,” you had told him and he had smiled back at you so much that he felt the ache of his face.
What Jinki wasn’t prepared for was how much you were a Christmas fanatic. Once Halloween was over you were writing lists of how to decorate your apartment for the festive season, and before December even arrived your home looked like you had visited the North Pole and brought half of it back with you.
Although Jinki was used to Christmas, he always felt the season to be bittersweet. His parents had made him feel special each year, but there was never a time in his life where his birthday outshined the celebrations around him. Even at home, his party themes would always include the Christmas decorations and he could tell his presents he received at times were due to everyone having tight finances around this time of year.
He tried not to be petty but when he was forgotten on his birthday and given the dreaded combined Christmas and birthday present on Christmas Day, he had slowly started to dislike the fairy lights and the Christmas songs.
As an adult, Jinki chose not to decorate his home at Christmas. This had surprised you greatly the first year you had seen his home free from tinsel and baubles, especially since he had never said anything to you about his different tastes at this time of the year.
“Do you need help with decorating?” you had asked at the time and he shook his head, smiling around at probably the only place in Seoul that didn’t have a single touch of Christmas embedded within it.
“Nope, I like it this way.”
From that day onwards you did your crazy over the top Christmas and he continued his own life void from the festivities. When your friendship developed into love, Jinki had considered what Christmas would look like with you now at his side as his partner. Especially since you had recently moved in, he was preparing to come home one day and find the entire apartment decked out in Santa’s finest. But as the first day of December came and went, the apartment was still undecorated.
It made him wonder where all your usual enthusiasm had gone to.
The first five days of December were done with before he finally asked you about it, pulling you aside before you left for work. “Are you okay?”
“Of course, I have you to look at and that makes everything okay,” you told him with a smile, Jinki chuckling at your genuine optimism.
“The apartment looks pretty clean,” he pointed out matter-of-factly and you nodded again. “I think it’s missing something though.”
“What?” you asked, blinking up at him.
He was confused, were you the same Y/N who last year had an inflatable Santa at your front door that greeted him before you could? He frowned at you as he rubbed your upper arms gently. “Where’s the decorations?”
“Oh! I’m really busy with work, I’ll get to them,” you told him, stretching up to kiss his cheek as you called out in farewell and left for the day.
Work hadn’t stopped you before, but he figured you wouldn’t lie to him about this and shrugged, making plans to help you over the weekend to set them up then.
The weekend arrived and you suddenly had to go home and help your Mum with something and in the lead up to his birthday Jinki barely saw you. He had fallen in love with your vibrant enjoyable nature so easily that when you shut off like this from him, he wondered what he had done to make you forget that you were once friends before lovers and he knew you far too well because of this.
He was starting to dread this month even more than usual. It was odd to think he was upset because his usually Christmas free environment was still festive free.
Jinki’s birthday arrived and he went to work early, letting you know he’d be home later that evening. You had mentioned you had the day off which surprised him, but he wondered if you had planned working extra hard last week so you could have his birthday off with him.
It made him disappointed he had a full schedule for the day.
He was tired when he returned home but you had promised him a cooked dinner, a good soak in the bath and whatever else he wanted to do afterwards, and Jinki managed to find some energy to anticipate walking through the door of your shared home.
What he wasn’t ready for was the overwhelming decorations.
As he walked into his home slowly, he gazed around himself at how different the apartment looked only ten hours apart. He found you waiting for him in the middle of the living room, a wide smile upon your face.
“Happy birthday!” you cried as he moved towards you, his eyes soaking everything in.
“What’s this?” he asked slowly, still taking in all of the balloons and streamers. “Why does our house look like party central? Are we expecting people to join us tonight?”
“Well, I remember you telling me about your Christmas experiences last year when you chided me for putting up a Christmas tree in my bathroom,” you started and he nodded softly, pulling on a string of one of the balloons floating along the ceiling. “I didn’t realise the pain of being born in the month of Christmas could make someone so unhappy. And you said you never once got a birthday as a child free from Christmas decorations, so I decided to make your wish come true. I uh, might have gone a little overboard with decorating for tonight though.”
He chuckled at your small admission. Taking you in his arms, he hugged you tightly, feeling his emotions rise at your efforts. He pulled back to gaze at you, shaking his head softly. “You held off from decorating for Christmas for me?”
You nodded happily. “Of course, your birthday comes before Christmas day so it makes sense.”
“It must have pained you to refrain from draping tinsel everywhere.”
“Well,” you said softly, biting at your lip and nodding again. “It’s been the hardest Christmas season but it’s been worth it to see your face. Besides, it’s not Christmas yet and I can just clean this all up tomorrow and pull out the tree then!”
He laughed heartily, kissing you before laughing some more. “Of course, and I’ll help you too.”
“Really?!” you exclaimed, your eyes growing wide. “You’ll actually decorate for Christmas with me?!”
“You did so well to hold out all this time,” he told you, mussing your hair affectionately as you beamed at him.
“Maybe we can start our own tradition? No Christmas until after your birthday. Then it’s Christmas-town from that day out. Deal?”
Jinki grinned at you, kissing you again and nodded. “I think that’s the best way for us to celebrate December together.”
“Me too. Now come on, forget about Christmas, today is all about you! Let’s eat!”
He had never realised just how lucky he had gotten having you in his life until that evening, and Jinki knew that he would start to love Christmas again all thanks to you.

batman’s great recap (2012 - 2018)
ON POPULAR DEMAND (seriously y’all i’m not the best at replying to messages but i do see them) here is that fic-over-the-years special! 
now, i know i spoke about reaching into The Vault for my harry potter and supernatural fic but honestly...i spent the past half hour going through that shit and it’s dumb. it’s not even about embarrassment - my style was basically nonexistent? there’s literally nothing you can draw from it. it was just “blah blah blah,” he said. he felt bad. and other such things. so instead let’s try to see if i wrote some real fiction in 2012. going for two fics a year since i’ve realised i have this pattern of taking a big step up at some point in the summer/fall. i believe.
2012 - mostly horsecrap but had its moments
‘See, that’s where you’re wrong,�� Taemin says as he washes the bowl. He puts it away and turns back to Kibum. ‘Onew’s a supermodel. I’m not going to go talk to a stuck up airhead. I’m going to talk to the boy who wanted me to put can crack open nuts with fingers on his résumé.’ -- shatterglass
'You are good looking,' Yifan says incredulously. He hadn't imagined the Mysterious Cake Thief to be even marginally attractive, but this guy takes the...well, cake. 'I don't like you. Leave my scarf on the table and get out.' -- things to ask yixing
2013 - full-out nonsense or full-out angst, no inbetween
'You threw me into the crowd,' Yixing says through gritted teeth as he applies disinfectant none too gently on Yifan's cheek. 'YOU NEED TO STOP THROWING ME OVER RAILINGS.'
'You were standing in the corner and drinking Diet Coke while I battled an assassin,' Yifan retorts. 'You were supposed to run.' -- secret agenting for dummies
'I think my ears are bleeding. Are my ears bleeding, Joonmyun?' Yifan asks gravely. 'Don't be afraid to tell me the truth.' -- tired&wired
‘Yes,’ Jongin says, frowning again—Kyungsoo’s pinned it down as his perpetual expression now—and shrugging. ‘I always look at you like this when you laugh. Perhaps this is the first time you caught me in the act.’ -- thunderbirds
2014 - the equivalent of tasteless porridge
There are things about Jongdae that Chanyeol had never hoped to find out. He holds these things in his calloused hands, folds them under his pillow, under his handkerchief. He’s done his collecting. He can sleep now. -- (can i ask you) about today
"kyungsoo's dead," baekhyun answers. "do you guys want some coffee?" -- phantoms
2015 - was certainly a year
‘CAUGHT IN A LANDSLIDE,’ Boy hollers solemnly, his hand on his pastel-pink-clad chest, the other one spreading out and the rest of the patrons sitting calmly as if this is an everyday occurrence, and more importantly, as if this human can actually sing. ‘NO ESCAPE FROM REALITY.’ -- set the tone / jaywalkers
‘Can you?’ Shizuo's arms are trembling with the fatigue of restraint, and Izaya might never be graced with such humanity again. ‘Can you...take it. Izaya. Tell me you can take it.’
For all of Shizuo’s honest violence, Izaya is pulled towards him for what he can see beyond that— Shizuo is so simply and painfully but a man. It's what makes him the fiend he is, and so Izaya leans forward, perilously close, looks into Shizuo’s eyes. ‘Can you?’ -- sacramental
The sun is coming up inch by inch, but it's still so dark, and so blue, and he's so beautiful. He's so beautiful that Eren doesn't know what to do with himself, encased in steam as they are, in mist, with Jean's lips trembling, the most moving Eren has ever seen him look. Our brief wage ours for the moment. Jean who paints with God's colours, Jean who loves him so. -- in petersburg
2016 - HANDS DOWN BEST WRITING YEAR EVER
'He smells your hoodies,' Sonic says. 'His engines go wild when you smile at him. He blushes when you pat his head, which, I don't even know how he's configured to blush. One time I asked him what his favourite colour was and he said Saitama sensei.' -- everybody’s looking for darjeeling
'Just,' Kei says, and Kuroo is caging him in against the mirror, and behind him is an exposed brick wall that blurs and sharpens in turns in Kei's vision, and the light above his head is red, and Kei wishes Kuroo worked for the devil. Kei wishes Kuroo was the devil, wishes he didn't have a bow and arrow on the wrist so close to Kei's head as Kuroo's arms slide lower from their place on the mirror. Kei wishes Kuroo didn't draw memories and hopes into people's skins for a living, wishes Kuroo hadn't seen the '64 Olympics live and taken a dozen lovers to bed, wants to be the first one, the only one, Kuroo's only love sprung from his only hate. -- heretic
‘Listen, Ryou-san.’ Youichi takes the chair— proving his point before he even makes it— turning it backwards and sitting down, hands white-knuckled tight on the wooden back. ‘When I wake up in the morning, I don’t even know what I want for breakfast. You’re not going to tell me what I wanted, much less how I wanted it.’ -- movers and shakers
‘You know I won’t force you.’ Kuroo’s hand is still right there, not so close but not that far either. Waiting, like Kuroo’s been doing so many times this evening, for the strangest of things. For Kei to finish his drink, for Kei to finish his sentence, for Kei to finish. ‘But I’m not a half-bad dancer. I’m just saying. Don’t make me pull out the birthday emotional blackmail.’ -- learning to speak / jaywalkers
Kuroo doesn’t have an armour. Kuroo is armour. His body is strong and his smile is stronger, because he believes what he believes with a carefree conviction, with almost an abandon, as if it’s a relief to think that he can’t be loved. -- 12.5 (long before rock’n’roll) / jaywalkers
But— Taehyung looks out beyond Jeongguk's shoulder, and at the pictures on the walls. At a him that Jeongguk missed without knowing who he misses, like the wailing wind of grief on the first day of summer. -- summer; blue
Friendship, Hitoka thinks, is the way you can be so involved in something that isn't your story entirely but might as well be. The song is soft and so painfully sweet that she wonders at Kuroo-san for being able to bear singing it to a room half-filled with strangers, but when he hums at the end of the second chorus and waits for the guitar break, the almost-blank look on Himuro-san's face as he steps up says it all. He's looking at a spot on the floor, so focused on getting the notes right, saying in the best way he can that this moment belongs to Kuroo-san; he was the one who made the invitation, after all. He's been playing here since his first year, Hitoka knows; how attuned he must be to it all. -- fall / jaywalkers
'He should know, shouldn't he? I wouldn't want him not to know. Can you imagine that? Can you imagine not telling someone you like that you like them? That's terrifying, Jin.' -- 11:58:30
But then Taehyung grins even wider, like they've already met, and clambers all over Jeongguk, hugging him and rocking him back and forth, clutching him tight in the folds of his soft, big sweater. And Jeongguk, Jeongguk stares at an overturned Converse high-top on the floor, wondering how it could be that his love is in his throat, that his heart is weak and sleepy with it. -- butterfingers
'It's called,' he says, then takes another breath and lets it out. 'It's called my best friend falls in love.' -- let me know / jaywalkers
2017 - AKA “i went too hard in 2016 and burned out” 
'I know the pre-requisite formalities of taking it up the ass, Taehyung,' Jeongguk says, and Taehyung chokes on air for lack of a toothbrush. 'I know it's hard to believe, but I have slept with people before.' -- surface, arches, breaking through / summer; blue
Jeongguk doesn't agree. He thinks happiness always barges in without warning or manners, like a drunkard from the street. He thinks happiness steals out the next morning without a single noise, like that drunkard waking up to his shameful hangover. -- poppy seeds
‘You deflated fucking rubber goose,’ he hisses, ‘what the fuck are you doing.’
‘Helping a friend—’
‘Across the Styx and into the netherworld?’
‘Across the league divide and into Jung Hoseok’s manly, manly—’
-- and now for something completely different 
2018 - nothing to see here, still burnt out
‘I am so fucking PUMPED,’ Hoseok says as if to punctuate Taehyung’s inner litany. He bangs his fist down on Seokjin’s empty guitar case and hoots loudly, and for once, Seokjin and Yoongi laugh along instead of rolling their eyes. (They can’t help being caught up, after all.) ‘MAN ALIVE. I FEEL LIKE A COCKROACH.’ -- (if there’s something better baby) well they haven’t found it yet
There are no guns here. Just Angelo, his eyes burning with the will to live. Just Nero, who made himself a bed of gauze and called it a day. The blanket is warm and heavy like the safety of childhood, and he can’t even cry; he doesn’t have the right. -- i came burning burning burning burning
What he's more interested by is...just them. Tonight, young and busy with great ideas about what to do with life, they look like porcelain. Tooru will never be able to unsee the future he has seen for them, and the only thing worse than the hole that has opened up in his stomach since this morning when he saw it, is the fact that he is never, ever allowed to change it. -- moonfall
‘I don’t have time for this,’ he says to Suran out of context, and she makes a sound of agreement. ‘Suran, I need you to hit me with a frying pan about something.’
‘I’ll hit you with a frying pan even without a reason, don’t worry.’ -- tuesday, wednesday, ♡ attack
VOILÀ VOILÀ. in conclusion, i peaked in 2016 and i don’t know why any of you are still here two whole years later thinking i will ever put something good out again. BUT IT WARMS MY HEART. LOVE U GUYS.

Sense Of Love [Epilogue] | Minho
Tumblr media
[Masterlist] [Finale]
FIVE YEARS LATER...
Y/N
I stretch my arms over my head to loosen the tensed muscles in my back. Rubbing my eye, I smile when I see the familiar figure lying beside me. My husband, Minho is sleeping soundly, facing me. I reach out to wrap my arms around his waist. Stroking my fingertips along his bare back, I kiss up and down his jawline.
“Minho,” He moans in response as a smile creeps on his face, “it’s time to get up.” I whisper.
“Did you sleep well?” He asks in a groggy voice.
I nod, “Surprisingly, yes.”
He leans in to rub my back, “Your back’s been giving you trouble. Are you sure you should be going to work today?”
“It’s too soon to go on leave. Besides Taemin doesn’t even let me lift a finger for anything and Key gives me sass for even coming in to work.”
“It’s still early,” He says kissing my cheeks, “We have plenty of time to straighten your back out.”
“Don’t you have training to do before the fan meeting?” I ask in between his kisses.
Minho’s career has gotten more successful as the years go by. He’s lost and won his fights but it never bothered him when he lost because he know that he lost fair.
He hums, “I’ll just tell Jonghyun that you weren’t feeling well so I got delayed.”
I chuckle, “Don’t use me as an excuse. I swear you-” He cuts me off with his lips.
Minho quickly learned that the simplest way to shut me up was with a kiss which leads to other discussions like the one we’re in now. His hand starts to trail up my shirt to pull me closer against his chest. My hands go down to find the waistband of his sweatpants where I could feel his manhood arising.
Suddenly the bedroom door swings open, “Eomma! Appa!”
“Or not.” Minho adjusts himself quickly.
Our 4 year old son, Sejun, comes crawling up from the end of the bed. Minho wasn’t joking when he said he wanted to get married. We were engaged for nearly a year before we had the wedding. Shortly after, I found out that I was pregnant with Sejun.
“Appa! Are you awake?” Sejun shouts in Minho’s ear.
Minho went back to pretending that he was asleep but had a smirk on his face as Sejun started to shake him and scream out his name.
“Sejun, I’m sure appa will wake up if you give him a kiss.”
He smiles before leaning down to give Minho a kiss on the cheek. In response, Minho woke up and trapped Sejun in an embrace followed by a shower of kisses which made him laugh.
Minho was worried at first if he would make a good father but as soon as he held Sejun in his arm for the first time, that triggered his parental instinct right away. He was a natural when it came to Sejun and I knew that the moment I saw him with the kids from the school. I had no worries.
“Eomma, when am I gonna meet my little sister?” Sejun asks pressing his hands against my large stomach.
I comb his messy bed hair, “Soon. She still needs to grow a little bit more.” There was still two months left until I give birth to a girl.
Sejun pouts before hugging my stomach, “I wanna meet her now.”
Minho pats his back, “You will but in the meantime you should prepare to be a big brother.”
“I am. I’m gonna take good care of her. I’ll protect her just like how you showed me, appa.”
As soon as we found out that we were having a girl, Minho started teaching Sejun a few fighting moves.  I was against it at first but Sejun seemed to enjoy it and it was another way for them to bond.
After a long morning of getting ready, I take Sejun with me to the cafe while Minho trained. Eventually he came to cafe where are holding his fan meeting. The line stretched out of the cafe and down the sidewalk.
Once the news of our engagement came out, our whole love story was released as well. The whole story gave Minho a growing fan base.
“How are my babies doing?” Minho gives me and my bump a kiss as he arrived at the cafe with Onew following behind.
“Fine, but you better get going on the fan meet. These people have been waiting for a long time.”
He nods, “Of course, I wouldn’t want the owner to get mad at me.” Minho kisses my temple before heading towards the table that I set up for the event.
“Here, Y/N.” Onew hands me a gift bag.
“What’s this for?”
“A gift for the baby.”
Looking into the bag, there’s different clothing along with a small teddy bear with bow on its head, “That’s so sweet of you, Onew.”
He smirks, “I know it’s your second kid but I have a feeling since it’s a girl that Minho is gonna treat it a little differently this time around.”
I understood what Onew meant. Once we found out that we were having a girl, Minho was somewhat scared. I feel like for men it’s harder to deal with raising a daughter but I know that Minho will be just as great with her like he was when Sejun was born.
I finish pouring drinks out for the fans that were waiting in line. I arranged them on a tray to hand them out when a hand on my shoulder stops me.
“You’ve done enough work today, noona.” Taemin reaches for the tray to take.
“I’ve barely done any work. You wouldn’t even let me clean the tables earlier.”
“As it should be. You’re the boss and pregnant, you shouldn’t be working anyways.”
I scoff, “I still have two months until I pop this child out and I go on maternity leave in a few weeks.”
“It’s still too close to your due date. Once that baby is born I don’t wanna see you working anytime soon.”
I smile at how much of strict brother he’s been to me. He was the same way when I was pregnant with Sejun.
“You don’t have to worry about that. I’m gonna have my hands full with Sejun and this little one.” I look around to find that someone was missing, “Where’s Sejun?”
Taemin points behind me where the pastries are, “He’s with Key, learning how sway girls into buying a cake with their drinks.”
I sigh, “Pulling the classic ‘you’re as sweet as these cakes, why don’t you try one if you don’t believe me’ line.”
He nods, “Yeah, starting him young.”
“Great. Minho already does that and now Key’s putting in his knowledge.” I look over to the two. “Key, can I talk to you for a minute?”
Key comes over with Sejun at his hip, “What’s up?”
“Why are you corrupting my child?”
His eyes widen, “Who’s corrupting? I’m teaching him how to make money. You know how cute he is? He could sell all the pastries in half a day.”
Taemin shakes his head, “With that being said, I’m gonna go hand these out to the fans.”
Sejun gasp, “Can I help you, Uncle Taemin?”
He smiles, “Of course you can.”
Taemin takes Sejun and carries him with one hand while holding the tray of drink in the other. As they went down the line, Sejun would take a cup and hand it to the person as Taemin walked with him.
By closing time, the crowd had already left after getting to see and take pictures with Minho. Taemin and Key left a little while ago leaving the three of us to close up.
Minho came back with Sejun from taking out the garbage. Sejun runs over to one of the tables to play with the toys in his backpack. I’m taken by surprise when Minho pulls me into his embrace and sits me on the counter.
“Yah, Minho!” I chuckle from the sudden action.
I try to get off the counter but Minho cages me in. “Yah, Y/N.” He takes my leg to massage my calves. “It’s the end of the night which means your work is over. Let’s go home now.”
“I’m almost done I just have to-” Once again he cuts me off with a kiss. The kiss felt needy like he’s been waiting for the night to be over.
“Eomma!” Sejun comes running up towards us with his action figures. “Appa let me take out the trash by myself.”
“Really? Wow, I didn’t my little boy was so strong.” Usually when Sejun wants to do something heavy lifting, Minho usually pretends to not help which is pretty cute when you watch it happening.
He raises his arms, “I wanna be strong like appa when I grow up.”
Minho ruffles his hair, “You’re gonna be twice as strong as me because you also have eomma’s strength.”
“Really?”
“Yeah, you know before you were born, eomma saved appa’s life.”
“Minho, I don’t think you should mention that.” I give him a look to make him stop but he winks at me before continuing.
“Eomma stopped a car from hitting me.”
Sejun’s eyes widen as he looks over at me, “Whoa!”
Minho nods, “I know! You’re lucky to have such amazing parents.”
“My eomma and appa are superheroes.” He starts yawning and rubbing his eyes.
“Okay, someone’s getting sleepy. Go put your jacket on and we’ll go home.” Sejun runs over to where he left his backpack.
I slide off the counter to finish wiping down the counter when Minho wraps his arms around my waist and places his chin on my shoulder, “Stop cleaning. Key can clean when he comes in tomorrow.”
I sigh, “Fine, you win.”
After locking up the cafe, we took Sejun home. He had fallen asleep on the way so it was easier to get him to bed than most days when we have to tire him out shortly before.
Minho put Sejun to bed before coming to our bedroom. I lie in bed when he slides in beside me. He nuzzles his head up against my stomach. It became one of his rituals every night to listen and talk to the baby. He did it when I was pregnant with Sejun.
“Hello my little girl,” He whispers, “it’s appa again. You must be tired from eomma moving around so much. I’ve told her to slow down but she doesn’t listen. I hope that you’ll be less stubborn. I already know that you’re gonna look just as beautiful as her. All the boys are gonna be head over heels for you but your oppa, Sejun, won’t let any of them near you.”
“Minho, you’re being too much.”
He pulls himself closer to my face, “It’s never too early.” I chuckle from how protective his become.
“I don’t think you should mention the car incident to Sejun.”
“Why not? He should know that his eomma is as tough as they come. If he still asks about it when he gets older I’ll tell him the story.”
“I’ll think about it but for now, keep it kid friendly.”
“Babe?” I hum in response, “If you didn’t know how we were going to end up, would you do it all over again?”
I smile as I kiss him, “I’d do it a hundred times over.”
The end of the nights always seem to be the best for me. It was the time where I would think about how Minho and I got to this point. Neither of us ever thought about this kind of lifestyle for ourselves until we met. When you have plans for your future, sometimes with just one person it could all change. For us, it changed for the better. I found comfort in Minho, having his children added more to that comfort. Everyday I fall more in love with him. I know that as long as we’re together we can get past anything.

SHINee 5 | Ghost Hunters AU
I redid this early post and I think I improved it, others also requests a couple things about this AU, so I just redid it bc the other one was messy
With increasing reports of things going ‘bump’ in the night, a team of 5 guys formed, and they travel around South Korea. They film their findings and post them on youtube. They have 20 million subscribers, even if they do talk in Korean. (Subtitles my guys) Viewers think they are all v cute and hilarious but also this is the most realistic ‘ghost’ show out there.
Onew- Research Analyst
He was never one to believe in ghosts.
He didn’t even think it was a possibility.
After his mom died and Taemin started blabbering about how mom was still around and that nonsense, it made him hate the prospect of ghosts.
But when his best friend in high school asked him to help out, he couldn’t say no.
His filming was trash, but it got the job done.
It was all fun and games until ghosts actually started moving stuff
The breaking point in his skepticism came when a door slammed shut behind him and locked him in Jonghyun’s cellar.
Might’ve cried a lil
After that, he went ham researching the paranormal.
His and Taemin’s dad is a  cop so he will sometimes ‘borrow’ his dad’s database computer to see if there is any sketchy happening in the history of wherever they are heading.
He was kind of against Key putting the first video on youtube, but it got popular so he forgave it.
Never gets used to the prospect that he has fans who like him the most out of their group. Like he has fangirls
After becoming a hit and getting 10k subscribers with only crappy iPhone videos, so after a while, they decided that they need more people on their team.
Put an ad on craigslist
The only ones who answered were his brother and Minho
Very much against Taemin and his boyfriend? Best friend?  Joining the team.
Thought that Taemin would turn it into a joke
But then he watched his little brother get possessed and he freaked tf out.
Got used to it after a while.
Their youtube channel continued through high school graduation and only got more popular.
They would film on the weekends.
He is really into it after a while and he basically becomes a human dictionary for ghosts
Like, ask him any question  and he will spit out the answer
Minho will only let him touch and cameras and other $$$$ equipment
“You’re the least likely to get scared or get possessed so-”
Except he runs into stuff all the time so?
Like if you think he is clumsy during the day, you should see him try to get around with a night vision camera.
Sometimes he will just trip or fall and Key s c r e a m s
“ARE YOU OKAY DID A GHOST GET YOU?!?!”
Jinki just kinda laughs it off, bc Key is so jumpy.
But overall he likes being a ghost hunter
Like it’s fun, plus he gets to spend a ton of time with his best pals
Jonghyun- The Leader
Every great story starts with a stupid decision.
Jonghyun’s was letting Key convince him to make and use an Ouija board during a sleepover when they were 13.
He 100% thought it was fake until the planchette started moving by itself even though Key and he were on the other side of the room.
And then him and key just like took the board and put it in the garbage.
But the damage had already been done.
His house was haunted.
Ever since then, he and Key had been trying to prove it to someone that they’d messed up Jonghyun’s house.
They invited Jinki over to try to get evidence on camera
So they made Jinki film using Key’s crappy iPhone and a cereal box voice recorder Key had saved boxtops for.
But then they caught some weird voices and the cellar door shutting on Jinki and they were spooked
Key put the evidence on a youtube channel and people went crazy for it.
They loved the video.
He wanted to make more, so him Key and Jinki tried just them for a year or so before deciding they needed to expand their group.
The ad on craigslist seemed to work bc they got a cameraman and a medium.
How cool are they?!
Once they started getting more and more popular, people would email him about coming to their house, business, etc.
Their youtube views were high too.
He 100% carries around a lil suitcase full of traditional ghost hunting stuff, like an ouija board salt, sage, etc.
Screams in falsetto
Gets scared easily, but is nowhere near as bad as Key
Sometimes Key’s screams startle him more than the spooky ghosts.
He also always gets scratches on his legs?
Like?
He can’t wear shorts anymore.
“No, I don’t own a cat.”
Lowkey thinks Taemin might be lying, but only because Jinki said he thinks it might be a coping mechanism.
But then Taemin sprouted off how a demon was following Jjong and has been attached to him since he was 13 and Jjong hadn’t really told anyone besides Kibum and Jinki what happened when he was younger so like
“Wow, okay, accepted.”
Key- The Comic Relief / Face of the group
This guy is scared of ghosts
Doesn’t know why he thought hunting them was a good choice.
Only in it for the potential views at first when they made Jinki film them in Jjong house.
1000% believes in ghosts though.
Made a youtube account for them.
GhostHunters5_25
He s c r e a m e d when they went viral
“SO MANY PEOPLE HAVE SEEN MY FACE”
Basically became an instant meme.
Pictures of him screaming and crying a lil are all over the internet.
Any fame is good fame.
100% let it go to his head.
Like, fame didn’t change him, he just got cocky with the ghosts.
It got worse when they really blew up after Taem and Mango joined the team.
Made everyone wear makeup for filming.
M: “I’m behind the camera why do I need makeup?”
T: “Also we are in the dark, I don’t-”
“SHHhshhhHSHhHh”
He was crazy for the views and stuff.
A skeptic of Taemin, like legit at the beginning he said they should kick Taem out.
“I can bring my dogs instead. They are just as cute as Taemin and dogs can sense things”
Got possessed once
It was for like 10 seconds
But he didn’t take it suuuper seriously until that happened.
He wanted to quit at first like he walked out of the house they were investigating.
Taemin tried to talk to him about it like
“Bum, I know you’re stressed but like, It happens to me all the time, and I’m fine.”
“No, you’re a freak! That’s why they go to you! If you were normal you would know how I feel!”
Taemin just left, and he ignored Key for 2 weeks straight.
Jjong and Jinki convinced Key to talk to him, bc if they didn’t patch stuff up, they’d lose their cameraman, their medium, and two of their best friends.
Everything was okay after he apologized.
From then on he would bring a doll with him to all investigations
The doll was an old cabbage patch kid
He named her Susan
“The ghost can possess the doll instead of me now”
The doll never actually gets possessed.
But sometimes 2min hide his dolls so he thinks it might’ve worked.
Also the fun cop™
Makes them go to the library before every new place to do research about it led by himself and Jinki.
Takes it suuuper seriously.
“Jonghyun, stop putting paperclips in Taemin’s hair”
“Where did Minho go?”
“Taemin, wake up you’re drooling all over the phonebook from 1987!”
“Minho when did you go get Panda Express?!”
Done with their bullshit
Minho- The Man behind the Camera
Didn’t actually know the others before this.
Like vaguely knew Jinki bc he is Taemin’s brother brother
But he really only knows Taemin, his bestboyfriend
They don’t like labels
One night Taemin showed him a crappy youtube video for three dorks hunting for ghosts.
“Isn’t that your brother filming? I didn’t know anyone could be so bad at filming! Who let that happen?
The film major was not impressed.
Left an angry comment on their video about how they need to get a proper cameraman.
A couple weeks later he was scrolling through craigslist while ignoring his homework and he found an interesting ad.
In search of extra crew to help investigate paranormal
“YO Tae, wanna become ghost hunters?”
Like he was aware Taem had that power, and those three morons needed a good camera guy tbh
Were the only ones serious about answering the ad
Him and Taem got the jobs because they were the only ones to actually answer the ad.
He told them that he was there just to handle equipment and be a cameraman
Quickly given a crash course on the good angles of Kim Kibum
Purposely zooms in on Key when he screams.
He is hella good with the camera work, and he is able to use extra footage sometimes for his film classes.
But he never really gets used to  what happens
Especially when he watches his best friend get possessed the first couple times
Did not cry
One time there was a loud crash in an old house they were investigating and they sent him and Taemin to check it out.
Surprise.
It was a skunk.
So now he always checks the site before setting up.
He also now keeps a few jars of tomato juice in his trunk for emergencies.
Taemin- Mr. Medium
He lowkey resented his brother for starting a paranormal investigation team after teasing Taemin a large portion of their children over Taemin making things up.
He and Jinki were never as close as they were before their mom’s death.
Jinki claimed Taemin was making stuff up, but Taemin let it slide because his mom told him that he was the only one who could see.
Like those rumors that younger kids can see past the physical world but as they get told that ghosts aren’t real and whatnot they lose the ability.
Those are true, but Taemin’s mom being a ghost made it so that he never stopped believing
When they asked Taemin what he could contribute to the team he just deadpanned
“I see dead people”
Jonghyun and Key asked him if he needed therapy.
He almost cussed them all out for being close-minded when they were the ones hunting the ghosts
He is a self-acclaimed Clairvoyant and a Clairsentient
He found out at a young age that he wasn’t normal
His and Jinki’s Mother died in an accident when he was 7
When his father got home to tell him the news
“Don’t joke! She’s right behind you!”
Therapy sucks.
It’s a touchy subject for him to this day.
He has fun with this though, he is able to feel and see the ghosts when they don’t hide themselves
This makes him a valuable asset to the team
Glad that the others allowed his bestboyfriend to be the cameraman too, bc Mango hadn’t shut up about Jinki’s shaking filming.
He instantly became a hit on the youtube channel
He got fangirls from this too.
It’s great to have anyone other than Minho alone believing him.
A lot of comments are about how the hot medium is their favorite and how genuine he is.
Like ‘oh hello, how did all these flowers end up at our house Minho?’
Also, if we talk about Key being a huge meme, we can’t forget about him.
He has a hilarious expression at least 50% of the time.
Gets possessed all the time though
OT4 asked him why he was the one to get targeted all the time
“What can I say, I must just be irresistible”
“They like me because I sympathize with them and my emotions are easily manipulated to suit them”
Also bc he is lowkey into Wiccan charms and it’s only to protect the others from harmful spirits.
Got really hurt when Key got possessed bc he was the one that stopped the spirit from being inside Key for too long, and then after the fact Key hurt him.
He also jokes around a lot outside of the site and when around OT4
Pulls lil pranks on them
But once they arrive, he is all business.
Randomly stares off into the distance all the time bc he sees a ghost
Lowkey afraid of ghosts, but only because he has gotten really hurt in the past from them
Prays all the time to try to protect himself more
/AN// I hope you guys enjoyed! I am wrapping up the semester next week so I’m hoping to start writing more! Thank you <3

forest god au like sometime when taemin’s little brother is all grown up with kids of his own
Taemin’s brother once went to visit him in the forest right after his first child was born - a baby boy he and his wife named after Taemin. He was ecstatic, he bounced around where his brother was cradling this cute, tiny little baby in his arms, peeked at the baby’s chubby little face, and ran one of his fingers so gently over the baby’s cheek. Taemin even got to hold the baby, and the baby was so cute, and Taemin loved him so much.
Taemin’s brother never came to visit after that. It had been many years since that day, and while Taemin didn’t think of his brother or his nephew very often, it still hurt when he remembered them and realized they hadn’t been to his forest in over ten years. He missed his brother, and he wanted to know what the baby named after him grew up to be like. He wanted to give the baby one of the little toys he made out of wood or a flower crown - or anything, really, because Taemin thought that was what a good uncle would do.
It had been many years since Taemin last saw his brother and his nephew, and even though his brother was all grown up now his voice changed, Taemin recognized his brother’s voice when he heard him calling his name.
“Brother!” Taemin shouted.
He hopped down from the tree he had been swinging in, rearranged the flowers in his hair so they wouldn’t fall out, and ran towards where his brother’s voice was coming from.
“Brother!” Taemin called again.
When he found where his brother was calling from, a smirk graced his face, and he stayed hidden behind a thick tree trunk. His tongue poked out from his mouth, a giggle bubbled in his throat, and he crouched down low. His brother’s back was turned, and when another call of, “Taemin! Where are you?” rang out, Taemin pounced.
“Did I scare you?” Taemin asked, clinging to his brother’s shoulders and shoving his face as close to his brother’s as he could. “I did, didn’t I?”
“You really did,” his brother said, laughing. His brother moved his arms to wrap around Taemin’s legs and hold him on his back. “You have flowers in your hair again.”
“They’re pretty, huh?” Taemin said, wrapping his arms around his brother’s neck. “Missed you.”
“I missed you, too,” his brother said.
“You haven’t visited me in forever,” Taemin whined. “I get bored, you know. And it’s very lonely since Mommy and Daddy moved away.”
“I’m sorry,” his brother said. “I really am; I’ve missed you tons. But I brought someone with me who really wants to talk to you.”
Taemin tightened his arms around his brother and turned his head to where his brother motioned. A boy was standing off to the side, maybe a few years older than Taemin, and he held a notebook in his hands.
“Why d’y’wanna talk to me?” Taemin asked. “Who’re you? Brother, who’d you bring to my forest?”
“Don’t you remember your own nephew?” his brother asked, tightening his hold on Taemin’s legs. “He’s even named after you, in case you forgot.”
Taemin gasped, and he sent an open-mouthed smile to the boy, “My nephew! You’re not a baby anymore! Brother, why’d you let my cute nephew get old?”
Taemin wiggled out of his brother’s hold and went to walk in circles around the boy. He was taller than Taemin, but he looked nervous as the little god circled him. Taemin’s brother mentioned that he wasn’t wearing shoes again, and Taemin stuck his tongue out at him before going back to scrutinizing the boy in front of him.
Taemin’s nephew ended up having tons of questions for him. His class at school was doing a project on the pantheon, and he had been assigned Taemin to do his paper and presentation on. Taemin was ecstatic, and he let his brother and his nephew follow him around and take notes on what he did, how he acted, and how he answered the questions. It was a day full of tree-climbing, fawn petting, bunny cuddling, stone skipping, and flower crown making. Taemin swung from trees, hopped in mud, and sat in the grass as he helped his nephew on his project.
When evening rolled around and the sun started setting, Taemin’s brother and nephew were getting ready to leave.
“You’re going already?” Taemin whined, standing up and clinging to his brother’s arm. “But you only just got here. I missed you.”
“We have to get going home, Taeminnie,” his brother said, running his fingers through Taemin’s hair. “I have work tomorrow, and he has school. But we’ll come see you soon.”
“You said that last time,” Taemin mumbled. “And now nephew is old and that’s how long you’ve been gone.”
“I promise this time,” his brother said, kneeling down and patting Taemin’s cheeks. “I’ll come see you again soon, and we can skip rocks and make flower chains and everything.”
Taemin frowned, but he held on tightly to his brother’s neck and buried his face in his shoulder.
“Will you tell Mommy and Daddy I said hi? And that I miss them lots and lots?” Taemin whispered.
“Of course I will,” his brother said. “But we really gotta go now, buddy.”
“Okay,” Taemin said.
His brother pried Taemin’s hands from around his neck, and his nephew sent a small wave before they walked out of the forest and over to where their car was parked. Taemin followed a little ways behind them, and he crouched down behind a tree and watched them drive down the road.
The week passed and Taemin’s brother didn’t come to visit that weekend. Then a month passed, then two, and Taemin tried to forget that his brother promised to come see him. 
Then one day, early in the morning, Taemin startled awake from where he had been dozing on a branch to his brother’s voice calling his name. He sat up against the trunk, rubbed at his eyes, and pouted down at where his brother was wandering below him.
“Brother,” Taemin mumbled, not quite awake. “What’re you doing here?”
“Taemin!” his brother shouted, looking up into the branches. “Will you come down here, Taemin?”
“Mmhmm,” Taemin hummed, and he hopped down to the ground and leaned against his brother’s side. “Why aren’t you sleeping?”
“Can you come with me?” his brother asked, holding onto Taemin’s arms. “Come with me for a day, yeah?”
“Why?”
“Don’t you want to spend time with me?”
Taemin tilted his head up to stare at his brother through half-lidded eyes.
“Yeah,” he said.
“Then come with me, and we can spend the day together,” his brother said. “And you can even see your nephew.”
“Okay.”
Taemin was led to the parking lot at the edge of the forest, and he was coaxed into the backseat. 
“Where’s nephew?” Taemin asked, rubbing at his eyes again. “Why’m I in a car? Brother, I don’t wanna leave my forest.”
“It’s just for a little bit,” his brother said.
“Wait, no,” Taemin cried, sitting up straighter. He stared out the window as they drove away, his hands pressed against the glass. “No, wait, Brother, I really don’t like leaving my forest. Don’t make me leave.”
“Just go back to sleep, Taeminnie, and when you wake up, we can spend so much time together,” his brother said. “And you’ll see your nephew.”
Taemin frowned at the back of his brother’s head, and he turned and watched the trees of his forest get smaller and smaller as they drove into the cities.
When Taemin woke up later, his brother was pulling up in front of a high school, and Taemin shrunk against the seat as he watched teenagers walk by the car. Teenagers were always up to no good in his forest, and he was always nervous around them because of it. He didn’t want to get out of the car, but his brother was already opening the door for him and pulling him out.
“Why are we here?” Taemin asked, shuffling his feet as his brother pulled him into the school. “Brother, I wanna go back home. I don’t like it here, I’m scared, take me home. You said we were gonna skip rocks and make flower chains!”
Taemin tried to pull himself from his brother’s grasp, but when he noticed all the teenagers walking around and looking at him, his face fell, and he glued himself close to his brother’s side as they walked down the halls. It had been a long time since he’d actually been in a real school, and he didn’t like it one bit.
“Brother,” Taemin whispered, “please take me back to my forest. Please.”
“Soon, Taeminnie. Soon.”
They walked up to a room that said “Senior Theology” above it, and when they did, every head turned towards them. Taemin gasped, pressed himself closer to his brother, and tried to hide behind him.
“He really does have flowers in his hair.”
“Look at his feet! There’s really grass stuck in his toes!”
“What a cutie, do you think that’s really the god of the forest?”
Taemin could hear them whispering about him, and he saw his nephew sitting among the students, and the teacher’s angry-looking face. When he looked up at his brother, he saw that he looked just as angry as the teacher.
“You didn’t believe my son’s facts for his project, well here’s the proof,” his brother said, pushing him forward.
“Proof?” Taemin whispered. 
“Dad, what are you doing?”
“Your uncle came to help you get the grade you deserve for your project,” Taemin’s brother said. “Tell the teacher, Taeminnie. Tell her how you’re the god of the forest; how you swing from tree branches and never wear shoes.”
“I wear shoes when Onew makes me,” Taemin whispered, fiddling with the end of his tattered shirt. “I do wear shoes. When I have to.”
“Tell them how you’re the only god who died before being made immortal,” his brother pressed.
Taemin frowned at his brother and then stared at the floor, “I don’t want to; you know I don’t like to.”
“Prove that you’re actually a god.”
“Why?” Taemin asked, and he looked at his brother with an angry frown on his face. “You said you missed me and you would visit me more, but you only wanna see me when you need me. You took me away from my forest, and you took Mommy and Daddy away! I hate you, leave me alone!”
Taemin stomped away and left the school building, but he had no idea how to get back to his forest. He was deep within the city, he didn’t know which direction was which, and there were storm clouds settling in the sky. His chest tightened, and he was afraid he would never find his forest again when a hand clapped onto his shoulder. When he turned, his nephew was looking at him and frowning.
“I’m sorry he brought you here,” his nephew said. “I got a bad grade on my project and he freaked out over it. But are you alright? Is the storm freaking you out?”
“I never told you storms scare me,” Taemin whispered. Thunder clapped, and Taemin flinched and closed his eyes.
“Dad told me,” his nephew said. “Are you going to be okay?”
“I don’t know where my forest is,” Taemin whispered, opening his eyes. “I don’t know how to get home.”
“I can take you back,” his nephew said. “I was going to ditch after lunch anyway. Come on, we can go skip rocks and climb trees and stuff if you want.”
Taemin nodded, and he followed after his nephew and got into his car to be taken back to his forest.

this is about Jonghyun
It’s been a week and a half now and I didn’t think I’d feel better by now, but I’m still a little surprised I guess. Because whenever I think I am, I notice myself in bed for 2 hours, 7 hours, experiencing the most stagnant cold I’ve ever had to my memory. Not terrible but there enough to stop me breathing and notice it, this cold I definitely got because of him. I’m dreaming at night and even when I’m asleep he’s in the back of a tiny, awake corner my mind, he’s not even alive in my dreams. And we have to go on like this every day.
And not that I haven’t been talking about him and this situation, but I feel like I can do it now like this. I’ve seen lots of people talk about the stages of grief and how it works and how to cope. I feel like I’m still on one step, whatever the step is. I’m hoping I can reach the acceptance part eventually...I accept it but I can’t see it. I had a similar situation a few years ago with my cousin. My family is in England, I’m in Japan or Belgium or somewhere else that isn’t with them. So since I wasn’t often around him, not enough to notice an absence, it took me a while to believe he was really gone too. I thought me going to his memorial service would change it but it didn’t really...I don’t even know if I had a moment of accepting that Luke is gone...I just kept living and he obviously did not these past several several days since...and is that a bit sad? Is that what’s going to happen with Jonghyun too? I don’t know...it’s sounds awful though to me it’s so obvious, but ever since getting into SHINee, Jonghyun has been more a part of my life than Luke was. Jonghyun was more a part of my life than most people I know. Not because I found him more important than them, or because I liked him more, believed in him more, hell not even because I SAW him more than a lot of my friends. But I listen to SHINee basically every day, even if it’s just part of a song, or just Taemin, or Jonghyun. I took comfort in them in all the loneliest parts of my life, times when I couldn’t or didn’t want to talk to anyone. And I felt better for them, and a lot of fans can relate with anything or anyone they’re a fan of, but they became a part of me. A huge part of me. And now that part is fragmented.
And I feel bad because the times I feel the worst are when I think of Jonghyun in the context of SHINee. It’s hard to miss someone when you picture them just not there alone in a random situation. You can’t have a solo concert without the solo artist, so I can’t imagine Jonghyun not being on stage at his own concert. I can’t imagine him well in the context of his family because I don’t know how he is with them and I don’t want to, that isn’t for me. But I know what he’s like on stage with SHINee, I know what he’s like singing with and slinging his arm over Onew, what he’s like touching foreheads with and smiling his smile at Key, I know what he’s like looking up at and being in the supportive company of Minho, I know what he’s like dancing SayoHito in front of and praising Taemin. I know his positions in Sherlock, I know his lines in Tell Me What To Do (which I will never see), I know where he stands in line when SHINee are in Japan. And knowing those spaces are never, ever going to be right again kills me. I’m sorry I have trouble imagining him by himself like this...it feels wrong that, while I can, the feeling isn’t as crushing when I do.
Jonghyun to me, personally...I’ve always praised him. I’ve seen a lot of myself in him in the way he’s said he pulls himself together, calms himself. The way he acts towards people, and the population. I remember times where I’ve just been so full of love and appreciation for him and nothing else, just so thankful that I was born in the same era as him and in an era where I could see him and learn from him and hear him. Starchild. If you know anything about him or ever saw him I hope you were able to see or feel just how...good he was. His aura was peaceful despite how he may seem initially. And while I knew he was depressed, to think that peaceful feeling he had was swallowed up by an overpowering, suffocating cloud negativity telling him so many things that weren’t true...I can’t even be mad at him.
I hope I never am. I honestly have always believed suicide is never the answer. I still don’t think it is, I believe there’s always a better solution but sometimes, I guess, the solution is just too far away, so far away it looks unreachable. Was that what it was like for him? Suicide is selfish. It is, there is no two-ways about that in my opinion. But I also don’t think you can just live for other people. He was hurting this much, what does thinking about other people’s pain do for him? Make him feel worse? He knew people all over the world loved him. I’m sure he knew, despite these things inside him telling him that he was never good enough, that thousands of people he never could know would be hurt by this. And dozens of people he knew really, really well. But I still can’t blame him. What does that matter, he can’t feel what they feel, he can feel what he felt and it was awful and he saw no way out. When I imagine what it would have been like if he instead went on hiatus, maybe went abroad to talk to some doctors who would take him seriously, I imagine the backlash from the public and how bad it would be. There would be people telling him the exact same things his mind was telling him. I think it would be worth shutting them off and focusing on himself if it meant he could find some of that peace he radiated for himself, but it would have been so hard. It’s not something we as regular people can understand fully...we get snide comments ourselves, and see people talking horribly about the kinds of people we fall under, but like that...? I don’t like to think about it too much. So while I still can’t accept the fact that he is really, really gone, I can accept his choice to do what he did. I can’t be mad at him, at least not now.
And for me I don’t know where exactly to go on from here. I have ideas, I’ll honor him, I’ll maybe follow a path to a similar interest we have. But as grounded as I have always considered myself when it comes to SHINee/kpop, I know the reason I was sure I could last at least one more year in Japan was the thought of seeing SHINee. I just re-read one of the letters I gave to Taemin and I said something about how sometimes knowing I had a SHINee concert coming up soon was the only thing keeping me going through whatever I was going through at the time. Except for this last year it wasn’t just a part of staying here, it was maybe....60%? And the best reason next to Japanese, all of the others were not good at all. And I honestly think it’ll be hard staying here without Jonghyun. I could do it, and I might, but I don’t know...
I really both anticipate and dread the day where I wake up and I accept that the world without Jonghyun is just the way it’s going to be. I want the peace but I don’t want to feel like I’m forgetting him, even when that isn’t possible.

Being trapped in an elevator with them
Jinki (Onew - SHINee)
Jinki would sigh deeply once it stopped. Maybe press the floor button to see if it would continue. “Really?” he’d mutter to himself as he pressed the emergency button. “Hopefully they won’t take long. Are you alright?” He’d asked turning to you, flashing you that charming smile of his. Any worry you were experiencing would be lessened. “Yeah, not a huge fan of confined spaces but hopefully they won’t take too long.” He’d nod in understanding offering his hand for you to shake. “I’m Jinki, by the way. Let me know if it gets to be too much and I’ll do my best to help you calm down.” you’d return his infectious smile as you shake his hand. “I will, thank you. I’m Y/N.” As the time ticked by you’d start to get hungry, face heated as you stomach grumbles loudly. “Ah, sorry. I had an early lunch...” “Haha, don’t worry, I’m hungry too. If you like chicken, I know a great place to get some.” That adorable smile back on his face immediately brings the corners of your lips up, “And if you haven’t had enough of my company by then, we could go together maybe?” You nod in excited agreement. “That would be lovely!”
(He’s such a lovely cute little bean >v< - admin Mimi)
Tumblr media
Yugyeom (GOT7)
This adorable little Maknae wouldn’t know what to do at first when the lift stopped moving. He’d be internally panicking himself, his eyes wide and darting all over the doors to see if they were going to open. He’d forget all about the fact he wasn’t alone until he heard sniffling. He’d spin to see your eyes wide and full of fear, tears gathering.
“I-it’ll be okay!” He speaks suddenly causing you to jump and look at him. “It’ll be okay.” He repeats reaching out to put a hand on your shoulder comfortingly. “S-someone will come.” 
“What if they don’t? It’s late, what if everyone’s gone home?” You respond, your words fusing together as you rushed to get them out in your scared state. 
“They will.” He gives you a reassuring smile. “And until then, I’m here with you, okay? You’re not alone.” Slowly, you nod and accept his arm as he wraps it hesitantly around your shoulder in hopes of comforting you until someone arrived.
[*whisper*I’m too lazy to find a gif i like that fits so have this one of the baby looking niioooce ~Chee)
Tumblr media
Jinyoung (GOT7)
Instantly frustrated when the small metal box shudders to a stop. He grumbles under his breath before stepping forward to press the emergency button impatiently. 
“I-I think they’ve heard it.” You stammer out. He turns to look at you wide eyed, he hadn’t realised anyone was still with him. He assumed everyone got off at the last stop. 
“Oh, right.” He gives an awkward almost embarrassed smile. “Uh, are you alright?” 
“I’m not good in confined spaces for long.” You confess uneasily. “I hope it won’t take long.” He simply nods and leans against the wall. 
“Uh, I’m Jinyoung.” He announces, not wanting it to be awkward in the small space between you. He had no idea how long you’d be there and the last thing he wanted was to be stuck suffocating on tension. 
“Oh, I’m Y/N. Nice to meet you, Jinyoung.” You respond smiling politely at him. He smiles back. 
“So what’re you doing here?” He asked and the two of you fall into simple, light conversation distracting you both from the situation.
Tumblr media
Kyungsoo (D.O - EXO)
The elevator stops harshly without warning and you both stumble. Kyungsoo manages to catch himself but you fall over having been wearing high heels. 
“Oh!” He exclaims noticing and bending over to hold his hands out to help you up. “Are you okay?” 
“I think I twisted my ankle.” You wince as you try to move it. 
“Don’t move, just stay there.” He instructs straightening up. He presses the emergency call button before crouching next to you. “Here.” He offers reaching out and helping you slide your shoe off. “It’ll help if you don’t confine it.” 
“Oh, okay, thank you.” You smile warmly up at him and he smiles back. “Are you hungry?” You ask picking your bag up from the floor. “I always keep snacks in my bag, you never know what will happen.” You take out a few different snack items and he laughs lightly. 
“Wow, okay.” He agrees and sits down comfortably, accepting an item from you. “Thank you.” You smile widely and you both start to nibble on your snacks, making conversation as you went. 
You were both so immersed in getting to know one another that you didn’t notice the time go by. The only evidence that you had been there for a while was the fact that all your snacks were gone, empty wrappers filling your bag.
“Oh, I’m Y/N, by the way.” You announce as he helps you out of the elevator, an arm around your waist, your arm around his shoulders. 
“Kyungsoo.” He smiles, helping you find your location before leaving with your number saved safely into his phone.

Thank you for the request!

Worth Waiting For
Tumblr media
Pairing: Onew/Jinki & Reader
Genre: Fluff, One Shot
Word Count: 1495
Notes: I just needed something ridiculously silly and fluffy after delving into angstville in my last fic. It was hard, but I made it smut free for those that prefer that. I try to make a little something for everyone. I hope you all enjoy. 
 You were finally home after an incredibly long shift at your restaurant. You were hungry, and needed a shower, but you didn’t know if you had enough energy left to do a thing. Except perhaps wait for your goodnight call. Walking up the steps to your apartment, you pause and smile when you see that you’d received another delivery. In front of your door was a bouquet of flowers and a stuffed giraffe. You pick them up, and go inside with your nose buried in the bouquet. 
  You throw everything on the counter, mentally promising yourself you’d put the flowers in water as soon as you got motivated enough, and sink into the nearest chair, looking around your apartment. If anyone came by and saw your place, they’d never even know you weren’t single. There wasn’t a shred of visible evidence that you’d been dating someone. If you could call what you did dating. You were with the one and only SHINee’s Onew after all, and he was a very busy man. 
 Even counting the absence, as of yesterday, you’d been together for a whole year. Honestly, you hadn’t even expected to last THIS long. You knew he was immensely popular, and you were just an average person. And of course, with his enlistment date drawing ever closer, you fully expected him to break up with you any day now. You’d always assumed you were one last hurrah before he had to be away for two years. Even though you’d been with each other this long, you still hadn’t told him anything deeper than that you liked him a lot. You didn’t want to hurt too much when it was all over. You kinda hoped you were just being pessimistic though. Even with him being gone so much, you could feel yourself falling deeper for him with every sweet text or phone call that showed you he thought of you too. 
  The first half of the year had been amazing. Jinki had little projects here and there, but had still been able spend most of his time with you. Of course, in secret, although you had to admit that was a little fun. It made you feel like a secret agent.These days, however, were a little hard because he was touring. You hadn’t seen him in three months. He was still very good about calling you every day, even to just say goodnight. He sent lots of pictures of ridiculous things and all the food he was eating, but it wasn’t the same as having him here with you. 
 You weren’t a needy person. You had a very busy life yourself, owning your own restaurant, and you had an active social life.You were happy with any little bit of time you got with Jinki, and you were genuinely happy he was having such a great time on his tour. You just missed him. And that was dangerous feeling for a relationship that you didn’t even think would last much longer. 
 With a heart wrenching sigh, you shuffle to the kitchen and settle on a quick snack before jumping in the shower, finishing quickly so you wouldn’t miss Jinki’s goodnight call. You check your phone as you’re drying your hair, frowning to see that it’s now almost midnight, and you haven't received a single notification yet. You open your drawer to grab some pajamas, pausing when you see the shirt that he’d left last time he was at your apartment. Deciding to give in and be cheesy, you quickly throw it on and go sit on the couch, throwing on a horror film that you’d been waiting for him to watch. It had been sitting there forever, and you decided if you kept that up, you’d never see it. Your eye grow heavy and soon you’re fast asleep. 
You were having a great dream. You felt like you were floating, but everything around you smelled like Jinki. Suddenly, everything was so warm, and you cuddled into the warmth, drifting further into a deeper sleep than you’d had in awhile. 
You could hear singing. Then, what sounds like water. Cracking one eye open, you wonder if you’re still asleep, but you hear the water being shut off, and the singing continued. It sounds like Jinki, and you wonder if you left something on. You sit up slowly, rubbing your eyes, when you notice you’re in bed. How did you get here?
Suddenly, the door is filled with your smiling, freshly showered boyfriend.
“Surprise!”
“Jinki! You’re here?” You crawl out of bed and go up to him, wrapping your arms around his wait and snuggling your head into his neck.
“Mmm, I’m only here for the weekend. I told them I needed to rest my voice. I got in early this morning and you were so cute all curled up on the couch in my shirt. Hey, should I be concerned that you can fall asleep to the sounds of people screaming for help as they run from mass murderers?” He chuckled, while rubbing your back. 
“Like you can’t. I didn’t even watch horror movies before you.” you tease, poking his chest.
“But why are you awake then? It usually takes a miracle to wake you up.” You ask, looking up into his face. 
“I wanted to hang out and see you since we only have a bit of time. Make sure you call work, because you’re not going in for three days straight. I have plans for you.” He bends and gives you a quick peck before walking into the kitchen to start coffee. 
You rush through getting ready, and get started making breakfast. When it’s only you, toast and some fruit is usually all that you make. When Jinki is visiting though, you go all out and show off your skills, and make his favorite dishes. Although, he is pretty easy to please. Soon enough, the dakdolitang is finished and he’s already sitting at the counter, drinking his iced coffee and watching you quietly. 
“Seeing you like this really makes me want to be selfish.” you hear him mumble. 
“Selfish how?” you ask, placing the stew in front of him.
He takes a large bite and moans, making you smile, and you settle in next to him with your own bowl. You have a feeling you know where this is heading, and brace yourself for the worst. 
“Like...asking you to wait for me.” he whispers, looking into his bowl. “I know that sounds selfish, but it really wouldn’t be that different than like while I’m on tour, just a bit longer. I’d still have leaves from time to time, and two years would fly right by.” He rushes through his speech, finally finishing and shoving a spoonful of stew in his mouth like he was trying to shut himself up.
You look at him stunned, and your spoon drops from your hand into the bowl in front of you. That sounded like the complete opposite of what you’d expected. 
“You...do you want me to?” You managed to stutter.
Instead of saying anything, he just ate another spoonful, and the blush on his cheeks spread to his neck. 
“Because I will.” You tell him, your own blush starting to form.
“You don’t think that’s too much? I don’t want you to feel pressured, and there’s going to be times when I can’t even call.” He pauses, his spoon midway to his mouth.
“Honestly, I always just assumed you were going to break things off before you went. I didn’t think that waiting for you was going to be an option. But now that it is, I’ll take it.” You smile at him, feeling like a giant weight has been lifted off your shoulders. 
“Wait here.” he’s suddenly running over to the door where his luggage is, and rummages around before pulling something out. He puts it behind his back and walks over to you with his eyebrow raised and a cute little grin. 
“I got these awhile ago, in case I ever got the courage to ask.” he explains, placing a little box in front of you. 
You look at him curiously, but getting gifts from him isn’t a new experience, so you lift the lid and see...couple rings? One large silver one for him, and a smaller one with a tiny diamond in the middle for you. 
“It’s a promise. That I’m yours and you are mine. And maybe a few years down the road, when you’re completely sick of having me around all the time, it can be the real thing.” He’s in full Onew smile mode now, wiping the tear that you hadn’t even realized had escaped before taking the box from you, and sliding the ring onto your finger. 
“I love you Dubu.” you grin at him.
He snorts, before propping his chin on your head.
“I love you too. Hey, how do you feel about Skydiving weddings?”

SHINee in MNL (OneK Global Peace Concert) 03/02/17
P. S. I’m just going to blog about SHINee since I’m a SHINee blog but I wanna commend all the other artists that performed. They all did an amazing job.
OKAY SO I AM STILL FREAKING OUT OVER THE FACT THAT I SAW SHINEE LIVE IN MANILA YESTERDAY!!! AND THEY WERE FINALLY COMPLETE!!! (SHINee already visited the Philippines twice before but the Taemin wasn’t there on their first time and Minho wasn’t there for the second time)
My Shawol friend and I decided to just buy the general admissions ticket because we knew that they will just perform less than five songs (and we’re still students so we can’t afford the VIP seats TT.TT)
The concert was supposed to start at 7pm but it actually started at 8:30 pm. It’s good ‘cause we arrived at 8pm since we ate dinner first. During the dinner, I was just chill and all and eating slowly ‘cause I knew that SHINee will perform late since they’re a senior group. My Shawol friend was agitated for some reason and she wanted us to eat faster. (There were five of us who watched the concert together. Two of us were Shawols. One girl was a kpop lover in general. Two of us were foreign students who just wanted to check kpop out and one of them is the guy I’m dating rn hahahaha) I was like “Allou, chill, it’s not starting rn and SHINee will probably perform late” And she was like “Minho’s hosting!” And I was like “OMG WHAT MINHO’S HOSTING? ASDFGHJKL EAT FASTER GUYSSSSSS”
When we got to the arena, it was already packed. We were lucky enough to get tickets with SHINee World PH so pretty much everyone around us were Shawols. AND AND AND Two rows below us, there was a group of Korean Guy Shawols!!! They were so cute!!! AND AND AND All their stuff were in pearl aqua. Their bags, their shirts, their accessories, they were so adorable I wanna squish theeeeeem
When the event was about to start, fans are starting to chant “Minho Minho Minho” since he was the host. When he actually came out with Seolhyun, the arena erupted with cheers HAHAHAHAHAHA PH Shawols were already screaming their lungs out omg I was the complete opposite. I was just staring at him while covering my mouth because I can’t believe that I’m actually seeing Minho live omg (The guy I’m dating was like “Is that Minho? Are you okay Mars? Is that Minho?” he was so cute bye)
They were speaking in Korean ‘cause there was a screen that was posting their translated script but I can’t read it because the font was small and we were in Gen Ad huehue
Minho is like the cutest person in the world TT.TT You know that he maintains eye contact with the fans and he takes care of his co-host (there’s more to come just wait)
SHINee was the second to the last to perform (PSY was the finale) When Seolhyun came out alone, everyone lost their shit because they knew SHINee was next!!!
They started their set with View. The first thing I actually noticed was the fact that Onew wasn’t really that bubbly. Like you know how smiley Onew is naturally, right? But during View, he looks more like Jinki than Onew. Even my Shawol friend who is an MVP also noticed it and said that there was something off about Onew. We kinda brushed it off because after Onew’s line, we were just simply mesmerized with SHINee as a whole huehue Plus there was a tiny JongKey moment when they had a duet part and the cameras showed them together in the screen and I can feel that all the JongKey fans screamed hahahaha
SHINee World PH released a set list of songs that SHINee would perform the night before the concert. We knew that View, 1 of 1 and Everybody will be performed. Allou and I were speculating about the fourth song because no one knew what it will be. My guess was Beautiful. Allou doubted it and we started eliminating songs but we ended not having a final hypothesis. Haha. The sound system wasn’t really very nice so we couldn’t tell if SHINee was singing live. (In our defense, some of the artists weren’t singing live. And during one of SHINee’s visits in the PH, they lip synced huehue) All our doubts were erased when the second song started playing. I couldn’t here Jonghyun’s first part because of the screaming around me so I started hearing the actual song on Onew’s part. I think his Jinki aura suited this part of the concert. He looked so solemn while singing. We all know that he is an actual angel given by the heavens to us but he looked like one and his voice actually opened the gates of heaven bye then it dawned on me that THE SONG WASFUCKING ENCORE AND THEY WERE SINGING LIVE AND WHEN IT GOT TO MINHO’S PART EVERYONE WAS SILENT AT FIRST THEN AFTER HIS LINE WE STARTED CHEERING BECAUSE HE WAS REALLY SINGING LIVE AND HIS VOICE IS SO GENTLE AND PURE AND BEAUTIFUL OH MY GOD AND OMG AGAIN KIM JONGHYUN WAS SO EXTRA WITH HIS VOICE LIKE WOAH BOY YEAH I KNOW YOU’RE ONE OF THE BEST VOCALISTS IN THE INDUSTRY CHILL YOU DON’T HAVE TO PROVE ANYTHING BUT GAHD HE HIT NOTES SO WELL YOU CAN SEE HIS EXTERNAL JUGULAR VEIN PROTRUDING GAHD 
I’m not really sure when exactly they had their talk cause my feels were overwhelming but when they actually had it, Key spoke in English and we were screaming again so I didn’t understand most of it I’M SORRY HAHAHAHA Oh but it’s sad again ‘cause Onew didn’t introduce himself but the rest did :( (But his energy started to build up on their next set and he was full blown during the last one so I hope he gradually felt better) The complete opposite of Onew was Taemin. The baby boy was just smiling the whole night and with his mushroom hair cut again he looks like a toddler omg he was so cute why is he even real please protect him. JongKey were talkative as usual and Key was trying to translate it to us ^.^
The third song was 1 of 1. What really caught my attention during this part was Key. Boy oh boy your attention should be really caught by Key. I always read fans saying that Key’s energy is really different compared to the rest of the members. Knowing Key, I’m not really shocked whenever I read this kind of stuff. but when I was the one watching him dance the way he’s dancing, it’s really different. Key loves attention and I can say that attention loves him back. And the way he pops his body is so extra. I’m a Flamer for years now but my attention can’t really stay too long on Minho whenever Key’s near him because the latter’s aura is out of this world I swear!!! 
After 1 of 1, SHINee members started laying down and then it dawned on us that it’s Everybody time so we started chanting “SHINee SHINee SHINee” DUDE BRO MAN I THOUGHT THAT I WAS IN A SHINEE WORLD CONCERT BECAUSE THE WHOLE ARENA WAS SINGING TO THE SONG AND CHANTING WITH US!!! (They were already singing with us on the first three but the fan chants were superb on Everybody like no joke we had ZERO chill) For years I knew that SHINee is one of the best dance groups in Kpop but when I was watching the choreo for Everybody, I got GOOSBUMPS. Even the guy I was dating admitted that their choreo was amazing and he got taken aback by the fanchants. I told you it was amazing how these fans of different artists were singing one song and fan chanting like we were all in the same fandom. Omg I’m actually crying while remembering that moment bye But wait I need to commend our baby boy Lee Taemin because his dance moves were on point from the start and was extra extra on point during Everybody (plus he removed his jacket for a few seconds that got everyone screaming then he smiled after doing that what a little shit omg that brat) 
Right after Everybody, the members went back to the backstage except for FREAKING CHOI MINHO WHO WAS PERSPIRING SO MUCH HE LOOKED LIKE HE JUST SHOWERED BUT HE WENT STRAIGHT TO SEOLHYUN’S SIDE LIKE NOTHING HAPPENED ANS STARTED HOSTING AGAIN THEN HE FLASHED THAT CHOI MINHO SMILE THAT MADE ME DIE FOR THE NTH TIME THAT NIGHT HUEHUE HALP
During the encore, all the artist gathered on the stage. SHINee members were being clingy together as usual. Yonghwa from CNBLUE, being the crowd pleaser that he is, started to walk to the extended part of the stage to wave to the fans. I was waiing for SHInee to do the same. Minho pointed Yonghwa to Jonghyun and I assumed that they wanted to do the same. After awhile, the rest of CNBLUE followed their vocalist then the other artists followed as well. When SHINee got to the extended part of the stage, they were all waving to the fans. THEN MINHO SPOTTED THE SHINEE WORLD PH PART AND STARTED WAVING AT US AND WE WAVED BACK THEN HE WAVED AGAIN HUEHUE AND THE REST OF THE SHINEE MEMBERS WAVED TOO OMG Except for Lee Taemin because guess what, he was the last member to get to the extended stage because he didn’t know what’s going on HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
So yeah, that’s my One K Global Concert experience for you guys. I hope every Shawol will meet or watch SHINee live someday. I never knew this day will happen but it did. Keep the faith, loves :*

SHINee in Dallas – 03/24/2017
There are a lot of amazing things that happened that day that still feels surreal!! I wanted to write a fanaccount not just to share my experience but also so that I can have a “dairy” to look back on whenever I wanted to :) Fair warning: ITS SUPER DUPER LONG!!
I went to the SHINee concert in Dallas with my sister (bias – Onew) and one of my best friend (bias – Jonghyun)! It was one of the best experiences of my life! First of all Minho was doing THE MOST during this concert and I needed him to stop! But there were moments throughtout the concert where l in love with each member! My ot5 heart was very very content <3
The drive over to the venue was about 4.5 hours but we managed to get to the venue at around 3ish. It was raining real hard for a good 10 mins of the drive…. SHINee really did bring the rain LOL
When we got to the venue there were a good amount of people there. There were couple of girls who were giving out the project banners. They were sooo nice!!!! They explained when to hold up the banner and details about the encore song.
After that we went straight to the merch pick-up line. I only got the lightstick and poster… I wanted the fans so bad but I didn’t have money L While I was in the line, I saw @nothingbutsoulmatesjongkey and I went up to her and greeted her! She is sooo nice and super cute! I got a little goodie bag from her which had some super cute stuff in it! Thank you so much Britt!!
Tumblr media
After picking up the merch we just walked around and we found some girls giving out Minho project banners! I saw some people with some Onew ones but I couldn’t find anyone giving them out :( I noticed there were a lot of Jinki and Minho fans! And whenever the camera focused on Minho or Onew there would be an eruption of cheers! Especially when it was of Minho singing!
Shawol’s fanchants are not joke! Someone had put on some SHINee music on speakers and people were already chanting and singing along to it and dancing along to it! Shawols are so talented! My friend made me this really beautiful poster to take to the concert! It was so beautiful! A lot of shawols came up to us and complemented it and took pics of it! <3 <3
Tumblr media
I got so thirsty at one point and I had forgotten to bring water so I asked one of the workers if I could go inside the venue to drink water and they let us in. When I was coming out the guy (he was probably in his 50s) who worked there asked us about the shirts we were wearing and the names in the back. We told him the names and showed him our pins that had our biases pics and he was like “how could I not know this! Psshh” He was so funny and nice!
The doors opened at around 6:20ish and we got to go inside but we didn’t get to go inside the actual room where the concert was held till like 7ish
I got p2 tickets and it was the middle section and like a second row of the p2 section! We were pretty happy with our seats! We were like right in the middle and the stage was close enough that we see the members clearly. While waiting for the concert to start, at one point everyone started screaming and I freaked out LOL but they were just checking the spotlight or something LOL
Up until this point it still hadn’t set in that I was actually gonna see SHINee live for the first time! When runaway started playing everyone started singing along and the lights dimmed down and all the pearl aqua ocean was soo beautiful! The venue looked pretty full to me too!
Of course when the concert actually started I freaked out!! They opened with hitchhiking and I WAS SO SHOOK!!! It was honestly a blessing to be able to witness that jongkey moment in person! The boys were on fire!
Fancams and pictures don’t do them any justice! They look so beautiful and perfect! They are called CDNee for a reason! For a second I had to remind myself that they were actually singing live! Key’s dance break during Juliette had me soo SHOOK!!! That was when it started setting in that I was actually at a SHINee concert!
During the first ment the boys introduced themselves and that Jonghyun fanboy!!! That moment was so amazing!! I knew that jjong would recognize him but I was surprised that Key recognized him and they even remembered where he was sitting the last time! When this was happening my friend was like “Key has got some competition…” I didn’t realize what she actually meant till a couple of seconds later LOL I remember screaming out “I LOVE YOU KEY!!” sometime during this ment! He probably didn’t hear it but it felt so good to say that out loud because I honestly love that man SO MUCH!
I noticed that key’s outfit was different right when they came on stage and during the first talk ment he told us the infamous Gucci story! He said something along the lines of “so I took off all my clothes...” everyone started screaming of course LOL He was so salty about it and the way he said “My Gucci burned” was soo hilarious! Kibum is so beautiful in person… He is actual perfection. His English is just amazing!
Taemin was kinda quiet during the talking segments… Poor guy was probably still tired! And of course as always, they made Taemin introduce the next song which was prism and he was sooo cute while introducing it!
SHINee’s harmonization during Replay (remix) was no joke! They sounded so beautiful and I was so close to tears. Witnessing odd eye live is just a whole new experience! My eyes kept gravitating towards Onew! He was so into it and was being sooo rude!! AND OMG TAEMIN IS ART!!! HIS DANCING AND HIS EXISTENCE IS SUCH A BLESSING!! WHEN HE PERFORMED GOODBYE I FELT SO OVERWHELMED WITH EMOTIONS!! I WAS SO PROUD OF HIM AND I WAS REMINDED OF HOW MUCH HE HAS GROWN SINCE THE DEBUT! HE IS MOVING ART! I FELT SO BLESSED AFTER THAT PERFORMANCE!! And the way joined in for ring ding dong mid-performance was so flawless!!
Tumblr media
During the second segment when onjongtae went to chage, Key expressed how our singing is good and said “your Korean is probably better than mine” and minho joined in by saying “English too” LOL They seemed very impressed with our chants! Jongyu came back on stage and minkey left to change. Jonghyun said its been 9 years since SHINee debuted and Onew had a surprised face on and was like wow 9 years! And then he started talking nonsense and said something about putting our hands together… we were all so confused LOL even Jonghyun was like “what are you talking about?” Onew was just smiling and said nevermind all embarrassed! He was soo cute!! He just turned around with his back to the crowd. Taemin finally came on stage was like “it’s so chaotic over there” (he was referring to back stage) and Key came out as well at that time! (Key changes so fast!). He said something along the lines of “I know! My Gucci burned back there!” (He was so salty! It was hilarious). Everyone laughed and Taemin was like “I was not talking about that!” When Minho finally came out on stage I held my breath! He was sooo beautiful and handsome! The camera focused on him and his shirt was see through…. You could see his upper body very clearly… They made Onew introduce the song this time and he was super cute and adorable!
They performed Selene 6.23, aside, don’t let me go and please don’t go and let me tell you… I WAS NOT READY FOR PLEASE DON’T GO! Even though that song is just a Jongyu duet and not a ot5 song, it is my absolute favorite SHINee song! The amount of times I have listened to that song and cried my eyes out is countless. How lucky am I to be able to hear that song live? And that too at my first SHINee concert! Like what are the chances that they perform that song! I was just in awe the whole time! Jonghyun and Jinki’s vocals are no joke! I was just frozen the whole song! It was soo beautiful and jongyu looked soo beautiful! When the song ended jongyu were just looking at each other for like a good 30 secs and my jongyu feels were off the charts!
During ready or not we held up the Minho banners and Minho (who was in the middle of the stage) noticed it almost right away and gave us a thumbs up. He then walked to his right side of the stage and there were a bunch of fans who had the banners up in that corner. He looked at them and he had a big smile on his face and gave them a thumbs up as well! Onho were so energetic during ready or not and savior! Esp Minho like where does all the energy come from? I was focused on Minho but my sister who is onew biased was like “look at jinki!” I did and he was like spinning around crazily!!! Then of course he tripped himself and fell! My heart stopped till I saw him getting back up and smiling at himself! He put his hand over his chest and looked pretty surprised by his fall LOL I just wanted to go up to him and tell him to be careful because he has hurt himself way too many times during that performance!
After everybody we had the encore break and we had to sing love sick but sadly no one did :( The fans started chanting SHINee but even that didn’t last long. I heard a crowd singing love sick faintly but I couldn’t hear them well enough to join in :(

The boys then performed 1of1 and dream girl and it was amazing as usual! Those suits are truly a blessing! They looked so good and Tae in that mustard suit is the best thing ever! The mic stands were so cool! It’s amazing how good they are performing with those mic stands without any mistakes!

Last Ment: Jonghyun said because of our cheers they could perform well and they he hopes that we cheer them on more and that SHINee will produce more great music for us! Onew said it was very passionate in the venue and thanked us! Taemin thanked everyone for coming and said that he hopes to come back again to Dallas! Minho pointed at jonghyun next and jonghyun said “I said everything already! Thank you!” and smiled cutely! Minho was up next and he had that big smile on his face and said “Thank You! Thank you for coming!! I will come back to Dallas! Thank you!” His English is soo cute!! Then he shouted out “I LOVE YOU GUYS!” At that point I screamed out I love you Minho!! Then Key in his amazing English thanked everyone who came to the show and asked us how the show was. He then said “thanks for singing together, thanks for learning Korean and thanks for your support and I love you guys too!” They then invited the dancers on stage and said thank you together and bowed. They then took picture with the crowd and the way Taemin sat down was soo cutee LOL
Key said its time for the last song and jonghyun asked taemin to introduce the last song. Taemin was standing so cutely and he looked so smol especially because of that hair and said “I hope… meet again… This is final song… this is encore” I said so many times already but he was sooo cutee!!! I finally fully understood the meaning behind his emoticon 6v6! Jongho were looking at him so fondly and smiling at him!
THE FINAL SONG! AN ENCORE! THE SONG THAT IS SO SPECIAL TO ME ESPECIALLY AFTER THIS CONCERT! We held up the project banners and I was part of the section that had to hold up the blue carstock so that it could make a heart! (idk if the heart came out well tbh) But the boys looked happy and were smiling! SHINee were singing it so beautiful and I was so overwhelmed with everything! It was just so beautiful and I didn’t want the concert to end but unfortunately that was the last song. Again my eyes automatically went to Minho! He has such a stage presence that hard to ignore. He had a content smile on his face and looked so beautiful. From where he stood he scanned the whole crowd. It looked like he was looking at each and every single fan! I was watching him the whole time and when he looked at the section straight ahead of him and I waved my lightstick at him and CHOI FRICKING MINHO SAW ME, MADE EYE CONTACT, SMILED AND RAISED HIS LEFT HAND AND WAVED BACK!!! I COMPLETELY LOST IT AND TURNED TO LOOK AT MY SISTER AND SHE WAS HE WAVED AT YOU! Then my sister, my friend and the girl sitting next to her waved at minho and HE US AGAIN, SMILED AND WAVED BACK TO US AGAIN!! HE SAW HOW EXCITED WE WERE AND KINDA DID KIND OF A CIRCLE WAVE WITH HIS LEFT HAND!!! IT FELT SO SURREAL!! My sister was totally about to cry and my friend and the girl sitting next to her just held on to each other and fangirled! I WILL NEVER FORGET THIS MOMENT! I HONESTLY STILL CAN’T BELIEVE THAT THAT ACTAULLY HAPPENED!! Towards the end of the song confetti started falling and it looked so beautiful! It was such a pretty sight to look at! After the song ended the curtain started coming down and Minho like crouched down and kept looking at the crowd till the curtains reached the floor. The last VCR was so beautiful and held behind the scene videos… I felt so content and overwhelmed watching it!
Tumblr media
It felt like the concert flew by real fast because we were having so much fun! My friend who isn’t a shawol but likes shinee said that she loved the concert! She said that Taemin’s dancing was amazing! Key looked so beautiful! She said that SHINee has such a beautiful fandom. The ride back home I just replayed everything that happened at the concert in my mind and I got so emotional! It was truly a blessing! I hope that SHINee come back once again to NA! I hope that SHINee had fun and enjoyed the show as well! I hope that all shawols get a chance to experience a shine concert atleast once in their lifetime!
THANK YOU SHINee FOR PUTTING ON SUCH A GOOD SHOW! THANK YOU TO ALL THE FANS WHO WERE THERE AND MADE THE WHOLE EXPERIENCE MEMORABLE! <3 ��,��>

Shinee World V in Dallas Fan Account
It literally took me two days to do this because I’ve been so emotional
this is going to be so long ;^;
I don’t even know where to start?!?!?
Aaaa okay wait. Yes I do. The beginning. Um?
Honestly, I’ve been a fan of Shinee for seven years now, and I always imagined and daydreamed about what it would be like to go to a Shinee concert. But absolutely nothing could have prepared me for the real thing. Nothing.
When the lights shut off and the intro to Hitchhiking came on (one of my favorite tracks!!) I thought I was ready like, yes finally after all these years of watching videos online and buying dvds, they’re gonna be standing right in front of me! Live in concert! And then it happened and I literally couldn’t deal!! My video for that song is so terrible because my hand was shaking, I was sHOOK, lol.
I had to stop recording for Why So Serious because I had adjust to the fact that I wasn’t watching a YouTube video and they were actually there!
Key started off the night perfectly, and he was really such a good host the entire night. The breaks in between when they spoke to us were such great moments. Keys “my Gucci burned” moment was so cute and funny. Jonghyun was laughing really hard as he told the story. Couldn’t help but laughed at his reaction when he told us he took of his clothes to give to his stylist and the fans started screaming. We caught him speaking into the mic offstage and he came out an explained later that he was whining about uncomfortable stage outfits for the next section lol. Idk he really brightened up the whole show I loved hearing him talk.
Onew. Oh Onew. Whats not to love? I went in expecting to melt because of his voice and I totally did. Every note he hit was perfect. But what really got me were his dance moves and his looks? Onew was serving looks okay!(also the thighs are so real, its one thing in pictures but in person? GIRL! I was so weak during Odd Eye idk how I even filmed that but I’m so glad I did bc Onew was killing it that performance. Waited forever to see him make the M.V.P. sign and it felt so good being able to do it with him ahhh! He radiated warmth the entire concert. Every time he smiled you could feel his warmth. A soft, sweet, musical angel.
Taemin is so impressive omg. He makes every move look so easy and relaxed, like he’s not even trying but I know he gave us his all. SO captivated by his solo Goodbye! Pretty sure I had my mouth open the entire time, just in awe of him. I noticed a couple of times watching my videos that during a couple of songs his mic and ear piece were bothering him? But I honestly had no idea he carried on so professionally. He mentioned in the concert he about not being able to relax, but the fairy prince was incredible. Oh and so dead when evilmaknae!taemin showed up interrupting Key: “we’re not talking about that”. Made my night LOL
Minho!! Homeboy was feeeling himself. My best friend and I always say there’s a member who shines the most each concert, and this was Minho’s concert okay!! Every time he came center stage fans screamed. No matter what he had our full attention. And I don’t know why he had to be so sexy but he was doing The Most™️. So many body rolls and hip thrusts I had continuous heart attacks. I have always loved Minho but, for whatever reason I never felt emotionally connected to him like I did with the other members? Until now. Baby was such a sweetheart the entire night! Nothing but fanservice and smiles. His personality, shined though and his bright spirit was contagious.
Last but certainly not least my ultimate bias Jonghyun. Omg my hearts throbbing just thinking about him. I fell in love with Jonghyun’s voice when I first heard him sing, he honestly moved me to tears. I always told myself that I’d if  I ever got the chance to see Replay live, I would cry. But I didn’t I was just really happy? Instead I cried during Selene 6.23. The second I heard Jonghyun’s voice the tears came. Because everything in that song, I could feel all of it in his voice. The fact that Jonghyun wrote song for international Shawols with the thought that we’re always so far away from them. Like I said, I always dreamed of seeing Shinee but that never seemed that something that could really happen. It was a dream. They always felt out of my reach. And hearing him sing those lyrics I always identified with in person, with such soul? It sound so sappy to say this, but it was the moment I realized my dream came true. It really touched my heart.
Gosh there’s so much to talk about. The fans were great too!
I met a fan named Amber, and she took me and my friend to the concert and around the Korea town in Dallas. LOVE her! Super sweet. She made my trip tbh. By the end of it I couldn’t believe we’d just met I felt so comfortable with her. Shawols are really the best. Were so friendly! I live for interactions like that.
The energy of the crowd was honestly the best thing. You could hear everyone singing before the concert started and the intro of the song. I really felt like I was a part of something so great! Everyone I meet, in line before the concert and sitting next to me were so sweet and so excited. During Ready or Not and Savior everyone was so happy jumping and singing along. Whenever Minho would wave his hands and give us direction to swing our fanlight the stadium looked like a beautiful sea of aqua. 
The best and worst part was the end. I always wanted to be in the confetti pit of a concert and it blew my mind when it all started raining down during An Encore. A girl next to me said it looked like a confetti crown in my hair lol. But then it was over! Seeing them disappear behind that curtain was so heartbreaking. I didn’t want any of it to end.
I usually get post concert depression but I’ve been smiling ever since I left the theater. It was such an honor to be able to sing with Shinee and watch them preform. I’m just so grateful to have had to opportunity to see them.
Long story short, I love Shinee. lol. The love I had for them multiplied a thousand times over now that I’ve seen them live.
All I can say is I just feel so, so very blessed and I love them with all my heart.♡
