[kowaindar0u]

1, 9, 16 for Yuichi, Sunao and Taikyuu, 18 👀 (@zantedeschia-praesul)

[ 20 QUESTIONS FOR MULTI-MUSE BLOGS! ]

putting under a cut cause it got long LOL

1. which muse is the easiest to write? i think yams, yuichi, and taikyuu are the easiest for me to write! i've been writing taikyuu in a couple verses since like 2019 so i feel like he comes to me easily. yuichi and yamatonokami i feel are quite similar to me LOL

9. what song do you associate with each muse? oh man. i have playlists for all of them i think so! letz go - Sengo: DDD by EXID i have always said that sengo would like exid a LOT, so here! (the lyrics dont matter just the VIBES and the DANCE) - Yamatonokami: Over the Sky by Dreamcatcher again i am always saying this song reminds me of tkrb in general but it REALLY reminds me of yams? (again, not rly lyrically, jsut vibes) - Fudou: It's Been a While by Staind typical grungey song lol but... any time it comes on when i put on his playlist i'm like. Dang. - Hachisuka: Two Princes by Spin Doctors not necessarily in any kind of romantic sense but naturally just the way he acts with regard to nagasone, the "pick me, why would you pick him?" kind of thing?? it doesn't really fit witht he specific lyrics just... again... vibes (noticing a pattern here...) - Taikyuu: ME by CLC i realized while looking at my playlist for him that a good chunk of it doesn't apply as much to him thematically in tkrb verse as it did in mortal kombat LOL (because indeed their backtories/circumstances/struggles are quite different) but this... i remember when this came out, during the time i was RPing him there for MK and just thinking how PERFECT it was for him. cause in all universes he is beautiful and he knows it - Sunao: honestly any song that feels like fall OR like laying in a sunbeam Put Your Records On by Corrine Bailey Rae honestly he's just a very mellow and sweet kind of guy, though sometimes he's got a just the teensiest twinge of sorrow. - Yuichi: lately it's for sure Talk Talk by Girls' Generation i already mentioned it on his playlist post but omg ...lately it's been really in my head a lot for... Reasons lol :eyes:

16. what is a plot you’ve been wanting to do for Yuichi? - I don't have any specific ideas in mind but it would be fun to do something where things get intense in, like, his capacity as saniwa. like shit is hitting, or about to hit, the fan so he needs to Do His Job LOL

16. what is a plot you’ve been wanting to do for Sunao? - honestly i think ANY plot would be good LMAO but i like the idea of him maybe interacting with either a less-than-friendly toudan, or one who's not in the best of moods. he's such a people-pleaser he'll do anything he can to help lol

16. what is a plot you’ve been wanting to do for Taikyuu? - HMMMM... perhaps one where he hurts someone's feelings and has to handle that, or vice versa. orrrrr ... hmmmm. i will always love him being protective of his fellow toudans, even if he isn't really fond of some of them... makes me soft lol. also maybe him dealing with some kind of Failure(TM) that kinda throws him for a loop

18. which two muses would immediately fight each other if they met? probably yasu and fudou LMAO

EXIDENT - Dennis Lloyd

This EP is soooo fucking good and too accurate. It depicts what actual human relationships are. I liked the songs because of beats, continued listening for this man's amazing vocals and discovered the real beauty in the lyrics. Just gonna break it down little by little. Listen in the order, I am listing songs below. This is kind of like a letter.

1. Introduction (you can skip it cause this is what he says in Spanish) : “I remember the times with you. The good times, the bad times. I’m sorry for what I’m about to say. I love you. Forgive me.”

2. Never Go back : This is about the feeling when everything is going good on the surface but something is off. You let the small things slide which then burst out like a volcano and you accept that not everything is perfect.

"Always look around girl

Tryna see the good things"

He says that he is always trying to look for the good things even when everything is in shambles.

"I wanna leave you, wanna leave you

But I can't let go (I can't do it)"

And this, this feeling of weakness (or it is strength?). He says that he wants to leave but he just can't do it. He just cannot.

3. GFY : "Go Fuck Yourself". In the heat of the moment you sometimes say things which you don't actually mean. This is about that feeling. He is trying to convey that you can say a lot of shit but you can't take it back. And and and, this song has an awesome interlude. Ain't gonna write it here, it's better you listen along with the song.

4. Aura : This song is about when you realize things have gone downhill and cannot be mended. So you start thinking what exactly turned it upside down. But you see, it doesn't matter as he says :

“I’m on my own, I’m better alone

Now that you’re gone, I feel alive.”

This is what matters. The reasons aren't gonna give you closure. This feeling is what you need to focus on.

5. Runaway : And this about the last phase. Moving on is hard but doable.

The name of the EP, "Exident" is actually "Accident", and you know why is it spelt that way.

[woahsehun]

hey girlie! I noticed sunghoon is your pfp and ofc sehun in your url, and as a multistan who is sehun biased and sunghoon biased, I was wondering who you bias in other groups? I would love to see if there's a pipeline hehe <3

hi! ty for your message 🥺 that’s so funny we’re both sehun and sunghoon biased haha. I feel like I stan so many groups and am so indecisive that I bias a lot of member in each group 😭 but I’ll try and narrow it down a bit bc I also think this stuff (like a pipeline) is really interesting

my ults r probably skz, enha, and nct (mostly dream) but I stan other groups as well. skz I feel like I bias them all fairly equally so including them doesn’t really help. same with nct dream lmaooo. but for the rest I’ll try to narrow it down and include past ults that I still stan but not as hard

enha - sunghoon and heeseung (and jake 🧍and maybe jungwon I love them all so much)

nct dream (if I HAD to pick) - jisung

nct 127 - jaehyun & yuta

ateez - yunho & mingi

p1h - intak

zb1 - gyuvin

riize - sungchan

knk - seoham

tbz - juyeon

aespa - karina and ningning

txt - soobin

astro - moonbin

exo - sehun and chanyeol

seventeen - wonwoo & minghao

shinee - jonghyun

kingdom - mujin

xdh - junhan

bnd - leehan

bts - taehyung & yoongi

got7 - mark

red velvet - seulgi

twice - sana and nayeon

itzy - ryujin and chaeryeong

nu’est - jonghyun

day6 - wonpil

exid - solji

gfriend/viviz - sinb

blackpink - jennie

cnblue - jungshin

victon - seungwoo and sejun

monsta x - changkyun

bigbang - top

block b - p.o

high4 - alex

history - dokhyun

pentagon - shinwon

sorry there’s so many but I included some disbanded groups as well as some I don’t really stan anymore just cause of the amount of years I’ve liked kpop and gone through the phases lol. feel free to message again with ur other biases too! <3

I hope you have a good day/night 🫶

[wickymicky]

ive been thinking a lot lately about how i dont feel much of a connection to 2nd gen kpop, because of this recent 2nd gen revival type thing thats been going on (which is great, and makes me happy as a fan who likes having new emotional things to empathize with lmao, but it’s not music or groups that i feel at all invested in, tbh). it feels a little too “before my time”. i’ll probably feel that way about kpop that comes out in a couple years too, i’ll feel like it’s too “after my time”. i got into kpop in 2019 so really that feels the most like my Home haha, like from 2 years before that point to 2 years after it. as new groups are debuting now in 2021, i’m feeling less psyched for them and ready to stan them as i had been for newly debuting groups over the last couple years, and i think its just because now theyre so young, they really feel like a different generation from me, and i can tell that it’s not really *for* me. 

basically, my Kpop Home is with groups that happened between IOI’s debut and Izone’s disbandment lmaooooo

[mayorwhiskerss]

this girl’s been in my mind a lot so i wanted to make a simple lazie edit of her

[colorisbyshe]

"; I will just link y'all to my wishlist or to a song I want everyone to listen to." Can I have a song to listen to or playlist rec I don't want to send discourse to get it

Yeah! I'll just rec a bunch of different things cause idk what type of music you like!

"Cypress" by Sarah Kinsley has a fun mixture of ethereal vocals and kinda discordant, retro instrumentals.

"That Girl" by Bree Runway gets the bass bumping! It's not my fave song by her but it's 2 minutes long, which means it's an easy enough sampler for her ~vibe. I can recommend other songs if you like her, lol.

"Leggo" by Exid is my fave song off their 10th anniversary mini! Just an energetic kpop song

If You wanna just lay down and feel a bit melancholy but still want a transcendent sound, not just weepy acoustics, "Heaven's Only Wishful" by MorMor is incredible.

Similar vibe but more synth heavy, I guess, like same nostalgic mood but more... electric is "Formentera" by Metric.

Not feeling like lying down and staring at your ceiling fan for hours? Wanna rage? Bringing back a true classic... learn to sing along to BYOB by System of a Down. (We are all collecting ignoring Serj's emabrrassing NFT fueled behaviour.) The screaming can be a bit abrasive but that guitar (bass?) is sooo good. And the song is evergreen in terms of relevance.

That too much? Wanna be fucking silly instead? Wanna bop around to a song in a Japanese and perk up because the only lyrics you can sing along to are "Chicky chicky bang bang," "?????? tEQUILA!," and "HA HA HA!" Then have fun to this song from an anime I have never and will never watch. (On Apple music it's titled chikichikibanban by queendom but idk what other platforms call it.)

Or maybe you want an 8+ minute song with lots of horns and groove. "Street Player (Dance Mix)" by Chicago might do it for you. Or you might prefer the original R&B version of the song by Rufus and Chaka Khan. Or maybe you want a less disco and more modern dance club version of the song... well, the sampling in The Buckethead's "The Bomb!" is superb. 1995 isn't recent enough, you like the sample well enough, but wanna know what it'd be like if a Dua Lipa knock off interpolated it? Deep Down is for you! Have any entire Street Player-evolution playlist.

So... yeah! If y'all want recs, TELL ME WHAT SOUNDS YOU'RE INTO!

Want abrasive dance music? Got you.

Want syrupy sweet pop music? Sure.

Want a song that steals the bassline from the transition music in Ouran High School Host Club to make a subpar indie boy song? Oddly enough, I have that.

Wanna to know the song that was playing as the DJ called my best friend NAD HER WIFE over to cut the cake while me and my tablemates went NO FUCKING WAY THIS SONG??????? IN 2022??? Yeah. No escape from this song.

Or maybe you just want some chill instrumentals that still manages some forward momentum and headbops. Here ya go.

Ask and you shall receive.

Where do you usually draw the line between the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th gens of kpop? If I had to pick years I’d say 2nd gen ends with groups that debut in 2013 (so EXO, BTS are 3rd gen) and 3rd gen ends in 2017 (all the 2018 groups are 4th gen). But then I also think the years that they peaked/style of music distinguishes them. Like EXID debuted before AOA but I consider AOA 2nd gen and EXID 3rd gen (both because EXID were popular in later years but also cause AOA’s music is like iconic 2nd gen style). Same with Nu’est-like they debut in 2012 but they were essentially a nugu group until 2017 with P101 so I consider them 3rd gen (but also they’re earlier stuff is aggressively 2nd gen like Sleep Talking my beloved though they’re current stuff is still very trendy so idk). Another wonky group would be The Boyz-they debuted in 2017 but everyone considers them 4th gen cause they didn’t get popular until RTK

oh good question!! i thought about this in the shower and my first instinct is that i do agree with you and i tend to draw the line between second and third gen at 2013, so i do consider most groups that debuted in 2012 like vixx, nu'est, and btob to be second gen, vs exo and bts are clearly third. to me it comes down to what sound the groups are more aligned with, if that makes sense. the defining sound of third gen is very hiphop based so a lot of groups that i think of as third gen staples (mx, got7, bts) all have that bend, and even though vixx and btob were active that whole time, their overall sound has nothing in common with that. also groups that debuted in 2012 are about to celebrate their ten year anniversary this year and i don't think we should gatekeep second gen status from them, a decade is a long time.

as for between third and fourth......it's a lot more nebulous because the speed of the industry's growth and change really amped up and it's harder to tell if there's even a division in sound at all. i do also usually draw the line at 2017 as the transitional year though, because i think 2018 is when we can actively see the difference in how groups are performing. also tbz debuted in like, december of 2017, so honestly we might as well consider that 2018 they probably had very little time to do promo right away because of year end shows and the holidays. other groups that debuted in 2017, by comparison, are a.c.e, onf, wanna one, weki meki, kard, dreamcatcher, and golden child (and also triple h), which i would be hesitant to call fourth gen because they have a performance style that's much closer what third gen groups do than fourth gen ones. also like, it feels weird to call a.c.e fourth gen because they've got two 93 line members. the two that you could maybe call wonky would be onf and golden child, since they also didn't pick up until rtk, but onf does not have the same performance feel as ateez or skz, and golden child does these crazy insane cinematic mvs a la second gen. BUT there's also some outliers squarely in fourth gen; if you had told me that oneus debuted in 2016 or 2017 i would totally believe you, and same with cix. it's so much more nebulous because there's so many more things happening. but i think what it comes down to for me in terms of drawing the line, is: where is the biggest shift in the industry? between second and third it was sound, and between third and fourth it was performance style.

PREACH IT!! SAY IT LOUDER FOR TH3 PEOPLE IN THE BACK!! *stands up and claps*

Just your comment, please I want to tattoo that entire response on my forehead so people could understand some stuff fjshdhsh. I very much agree with everything you have said, like I do think the bighit deal was more so with the help of say with western connections (which again does NOT mean pledis could have done this without bighit. They clearly could but I saw a theory on a YouTube comment where someone said they focused on the core fanbase aka in Korea which is their main market and it paid off imo) from helping with buisness side of things like we do have merch to buy directly (which I have my opinion on some merch ideas like why the fudge is bighit selling us water!? Bro you thought that worked with bts doesn't mean it will with seventeen) which wasn't common in the past or being able to film concerts with ease during the pandemic. Bighit clearly acknowledges that seventeen is a monster group in their own right I mean as you said, they break records and are 2nd behind bighits own group. They are EXTEMELY big in Japan. They are their own song makers, bang pd confirmed this when pleids was first announced in a press video so the fact people brush all of their achievements and statements because why, their streaming numbers are low?

And oohh such an interesting point as well! Very much i think the current mindset of kpop fans (or at least some) is that streaming is what equals success which to some degree, yes but as you said, many ignore the casual side of listening. People that find the song due to it being viral for whatever reason, a fancam getting popular like in the cass of hani from exid or whatever reason. Dwc is a great example and I saw those comments under their recent performance of that song and it makes me proud that the boys have a song like that. That it has its own "fanbase" quote on quote with how well loved that song simply is and well known. You don't have to have fans doing crazy streaming to be considered "popular", I mean I could give more examples but I don't wanna make this too long nor cause unwanted fandrama lol. Those casual listeners are extremely important and powerful I mean brave girls is a great recent example of that I think! It very much does seem like that when looking at the views, its mainly the core fanbase which isn't bad nor should we feel bad for not having crazy numbers. They seem more organic if that makes sense? Plus I agree, we can stream and can explain how it works, clearing up confusion about it like no emojis don't take down views and yes youtube does take away views but that is due to it making sure it isn't bots only viewing the video. Explaining that streaming should be done with a chill mindset and its ok if you don't stream. But hey, maybe we're too weird of fans to think like this fjajdjajs.

But some few updates! Seventeen is back on Instagram, fully everyone is posting away. Makes me happy hehe m, a bit funny it took so long for them to comeback but am happy nonetheless. The interactions that seungkwan does makes me super soft. Seventeen are also back with doing proper promotions so yay (also pledis is S Wording people over the mingyu issue finally so bless). As for me on the personal side of things. I have OFFICIALLY finished that video game ^_^ it took me a while but I have finished it, my last goodbye was completed and am at ease so to speak? Lowkey am planning on beating all the trophies in the game cx also may I ask about your thoughts on the album? Favorite songs, have you bought the physical cd?

ok finally getting around to this lol!!

and yeah that's absolutely true, pledis focused on kr promotions/fanbase first and foremost (and then expanded to Japan and is now looking toward the US/western promos in general). which i agree was a good thing. i think some companies get too greedy with wanting a group to be ~internationally famous~ that they ignore their Korean fanbase a bit too much and I've seen groups that have failed bc of it, so I'm glad that didn't happen w SVT

and yeah in terms of merch I'm genuinely grateful as an american that for this cb at least there was a US distributor which made things super convenient but wtf is going on w hybes merch those water bottles are not it TT it just sucks to see bc it's clear that at least as far as merch goes hybe doesn't have an interest in like. doing market research to figure out what carats want. which is funny bc they don't even have to start from scratch they could literally just ask pledis?? and tbh what's sad is i don't think hybe is like. purposefully trying to sabotage SVTs merch from my limited perspective i get the feeling they treat all their groups merch like that :( but since us carats have seen in the past what kind of merch we're capable of getting it's disappointing to see such a downgrade. and like tbf pledis's merch decisions were never perfect like that time they tried to sell replicas of the SVT rings and carats were rightfully pissed bc those are something the members earned, not something to be bought. and i also don't think hybe never has or never will make good merch, I'm sure they're fully capable of it. but it just seems obvious that they've put WAY less if any effort into understanding both the market (ie carats) and seventeens brand compared to pledis so like of course most carats aren't gonna like it :/ i really hope they step up their game and do better research or bring ppl onto the team who better understand svt's brand

and yeah i very much agree with everything u said about streaming! tbh i think this mindset isn't as uncommon as you might think, I've actually met a fair number of kpop fans who are critical of streaming culture but as u know there also are a lot of ppl who are really into it and those ppl tend to have the loudest voices. and unfortunately part of streaming culture is that if you question the methods or don't participate you must be a bad fan or secretly an anti or something ridiculous like that. so ppl who aren't into streaming culture end up learning to not be too vocal about it bc of how bad the backlash can be

yes! I'm glad to see insta line (+ now dk!!) active again. i still wonder why pledis made them stop using their ind instas, like I know all the theories people have as to why but honestly none that I've seen seem to fully make sense. it will probably be one of those things where we'll just never know the full story. but i digress!! regardless of the reason I'm just glad to have them back after all this time ^^

congrats on finishing the game! I'm glad it was able to help you work through your grief a bit and that you feel more at ease now ;-; and good luck with the rest of the trophies if you end up trying to get them!

as always I'm answering this a bit late so you may have seen already but i did get the physical album! it was a birthday gift so i only got it the other day, but according to my mom it arrived almost immediately after the album was released so as i said before, I'm very grateful for the US shop this time around ;-; as for the songs usually it's easy for me to pick one or two favorites but this time around it's genuinely a 4-way tie between heavens cloud and all the unit songs TT (i also love anyone and RTL, they're just slightly lower on the list in terms of preference if u get what i mean). i really hope some time in the future we get some kind of performance or special video or something for heavens cloud, since so many carats and the members themselves seem to really love it. i also think it's a song that brings up such beautiful imagery that it would be a shame if it never got any type of visual representation, you know? I'm also really curious to see a performance of wave, since iirc the members said the choreo is a lot more laid back/different from other perf unit choreos?? + that song also evokes such great imagery for me that like... makes feel like it needs some kind of movement so I'm just itching to see a performance. kind of like... even if i didn't know it was a perf unit song i would think it would be great to choreograph to if that makes any sense dhfkf. but yeah overall i think it's just a really solid album, as expected from summerteen ^^

[emeraldbabygirl]

I had a dream last night that a group of female idols from disbanded groups, kinda like what Uni.t was, performed Sage together and they had these long red dresses and cloaks and veils like in the teaser pics but they had these red flags that had like Aztec and Native American smybols on them? Like, and a lot of face paint and head accessories similar to South Dakota and I think it’s Arizona from Azur Lane, and Hyomin from T-are was the center or something cause a part of the dream had the camera zoomed in on her and L.E from Exid was there too and I like Mint from Tiny-G and it was weird but they did an amazing cover of it. I think a few 9Muses members were there too

ULTIMATUM !

SUMMARY :: In which Jiwon gets some bad news. CHARACTERS :: Noh Jiwon, Jeon Sunwoo, Jang Jinhwan, Han Donghan, Nico Matsui WORDS :: 1.3K WARNINGS ::  swearing, fighting ( if i missed anything let me know ! )

Jiwon was nervous as he walked through the unfamiliar hallways of the offices of Banana Culture. There weren’t many times that Jiwon had to go and meet the higher ups in the company, that being Dosan’s problem for a long while until he  left the group, but things had been slow since then, barely giving Jiwon a chance to need to talk to anyone.

This time felt different, he could feel it in his bones when their manager told them that the CEO wanted to see him. It was never a good thing to have to see the CEO, or at least that’s what Jiwon could tell, and he would much rather be living under the radar of the company instead of having to do these meetings. 

His feet carried him towards the office he was supposed to go to, seeing the assistant nodding him towards the room without another word. He took a deep breath before knocking on the door, hearing a small noise which Jiwon could only assume was letting him know to come in. Jiwon steeled his nerves, opening the door just a crack to look into the room, seeing his CEO sitting at his desk, ushering him into the room.

The CEO was a big, unsuspecting man. He never looked truly mean, though Jiwon had seen him acting seriously before and it was something that scared Jiwon a lot more than he liked to admit. Jiwon wasted no time walking into the room and taking a seat right in front of the man, trying his best to not look like he was nervous.

“How’s everything going with the comeback?” the older man questioned, not even bothering to look up from the paperwork that he was paying much more attention to. 

“Um,” Jiwon started, quickly shutting his mouth before he continued to make it look like he had no idea what he was doing still, even after almost a year. “It’s going well,” he continued after gathering his thoughts together. “The other boys are working really hard and we just finished recording most of the songs.”

“Good, good,” he nodded, finally looking up to meet Jiwon’s eyes. 

He smiled a bit, but Jiwon could tell that it wasn’t reaching his eyes, before he let out a small sigh and leaned forward in his chair, hsi face becoming much more serious in a matter of seconds, making Jiwon’s heart race.

“Look, I’m not going to drag this out,” the older man started, Jiwon knowing that nothing good could come out of what he was about to say. “We both know that your sales haven’t been where we need them.” Jiwon closed his eyes, trying his best to keep tears from falling out of his eyes. He knew where this was going and he didn’t want him to say it. “So this comeback will be very important for you guys because I’m going to need you guys to get your first win this comeback.”

Jiwon swallowed hard, opening his eyes to look at the older man in front of him. “And what happens if we don’t get our first win?” He already knew the answer, but he needed him to say it out loud, to make it real.

“Replay will disband.” It was a final statement, no room for negotiation. The words struck Jiwon’s heart, but he couldn’t find it in him to let the tears fall, knowing it wouldn’t help anything, so he just nodded letting the man continue with the details of everything, Jiwon’s mind running through what he needed to do next.

Jiwon was stressed as he looked over the rest of the boys practicing their dance for their comeback. Today was a bad day, all of the boys being off for some reason, but Jiwon couldn’t really blame them, he had been far harder on them recently, it was bound to make them tired. 

Jiwon crouched in front of the mirror, watching each of the boys intently, looking for any minor mistakes in any of their movements. They had been doing okay today, no major mistakes in the choreography, though their movements looked slow and sluggish. It wasn’t until Jinhwan’s feet tangled, sending him flying onto the floor, that Jiwon stopped the music, glaring at them with tired eyes.

“Sorry,” Jinhwan spoke quietly, his voice out of breath and tired as he avoided looking Jinwon in the eyes, his long black hair acting as a barrier between them.

Jiwon didn’t respond, just looking over the rest of the boys, all tired and out of breath. He wanted nothing more than to give them a break, but their comeback was in about a week and they barely got through the choreography without making some sort of a mistake. 

“Let’s try it again,” his voice was steely and final, showing no emotion as he opened his phone to restart the music.

“Can’t we take a break? We’ve been at this for hours,” Donghan’s tired voice broke through the silence, causing the older boy’s head to shoot up and look at him.

“We can take a break when we get it right,” 

“How will we be able to get it right if we’re moving like the walking dead?” he questioned, crossing his arms over his chest. A small ‘Donghan!’ broke through the small silence, but nobody acknowledged it, just staring at the two boys glaring at each other. “Jinhwan just fell and you didn’t even seem worried about it, you’ve been pushing us super fucking hard, even harder than any other comeback, and you’ve kind of been acting like a huge dick for months now. What’s going on?”

Jiwon tore his eyes away from the younger, instantly meeting Sunwoo’s eyes, who just shrugged, giving him a knowing look. Sunwoo knew everything about the conversation he had with the CEO, talking off the ledge of having a panic attack at the mere thought of disbanding their group, helping him figure out what to do, there was no way Jiwon would have gotten through it without telling him. The one thing they disagreed on was if they should tell the little ones or not, Sunwoo thought that they should tell them, but Jiwon was worried about how it would affect their performances if they knew it was going to be their last ditch effort.

“This is what I’m talking about!” Donghan’s voice cut through the room, pulling Jiwon’s eyes away from his best friend. “You and Sunwoo have been so fucking secretive recently! I know you guys call us the little ones and we play around that you guys are our parents, but we’re not kids, you don’t have to keep stuff from us!”

Jiwon sighed, bringing a hand up to rub at his forehead. “We need to get our first in this comeback.” he said quietly, not looking up at the other boys.

He could practically hear the gears turning in Donghan’s mind as he tried to understand the words coming out of Jiwon’s mouth. “Yeah, of course it would be nice to get our first win-”

“No,” he cut the boy off, looking up at Donghan who looked confused. “We need to get our first win this comeback or else the company is disbanding us.”

“Oh,”

“Yeah,” he continued looking at the other boys. “I didn’t want to tell you guys cause I was worried it would make everything feel so much more forces on stage and it would affect our chances of getting a win.”

“I guess it makes sense why they made us change our sound now,” Nico was quiet, his arms wrapped around his stomach and Jiwon was sure he could see the tears forming in his eyes. Sunwoo wasted no time putting an arm around the youngest, comforting him as much as he could.

“I knew they were desperate for a new money maker after EXID left, but I didn’t think they would disband us,” Jinhwan spoke out, pulling his long legs up to his chest, Donghan reaching down to rub his shoulder soothingly.

“Me too,” Jiwon responded, his voice hollow and sad as he put his head back, leaning it against the cold mirror.

can I request for a josuke x reader oneshot? fluff & angst, it was raining and both of them are in sentimental mode; reminiscing their good times (when they’re both in a relationship) to the end of their break up.. i hope you may blend it with the rain theme (actually inspired by the song “rains again” by solji) thank you🤍☔️

Higashikata Josuke: Rains Again

TW // none

Thank you, thank you and thank you again for this request. I loved writing it, and the song inspired me even more. I suggest y'all read this while listening to the song written in the request, "Rains Again" by EXID's Solji, if you want to get in the right mood to fully appreciate it. Also. It's long. Get ready to cry.

Where Josuke and his s/o meet during a rainy day. Loss of virginity is mentioned, but no worries, there's no nsfw. Fluff and angst, kinda hurt/comfort.

WORD COUNT: 4k

Rain, rain. A rain filled day. I think it'll always be like this for a while. Blankly.

You were all curled up in the bench under the bus stop. You went outside without an umbrella, and all of a sudden, it started raining. The sky started crying again. And again. You knew this feeling. And you hated rain. You hated...

"Shit! This fucking rain... I hate it so much..." a tall figure joined you under that bus stop. He didn't even look at you, he was just focusing on getting the water out of his hair. His precious hair you hated so much. His precious hair you loved so much. "Rain only brought bad stuff into my life... fuck it, fuck it all." he let his bag onto the ground. Then kicked it out of anger.

"It was raining, when I broke up with you." that voice. He'd recognize it between a thousand voices. "Remember, Josuke?" he turned around. His gaze met yours. Your little body all curled up because of the cold wind rain brought with her. He didn't know how to feel about you. Angry? Sad? Maybe sorry? Did he miss you?

"You." he just said. He fetched the bag he had let on the ground, and quietly sat next to you.

"Are you stuck here because the rain, too?" as soon as he approached you that much, you felt nostalgia kicking in. Just stop, you thought. He's been an asshole. Not your fault.

"Yes... well... no, to be precise." he looked like he was about to panic, too. "I just need to wait for my bus back home." was he trying to play it cool or something? His home was pretty close, and it's not that many people in Morioh Cho used the bus. He really hadn't changed, huh. The almighty I-never-make-mistakes Josuke.

Pouring down the rain in my memories of you, maybe i think it also contains good things.

"So... how've you been doing?" you really didn't want to answer that question. You just shrugged, leaning your head against the giant megapixel screen on your right. "Are you gonna ignore me, is that it?" the atmosphere was heart wrenching. You had no guts to face him and meet his gaze twice. You would have cried.

Getting nervous, Josuke accidentally dropped his bag again, this time, his wallet fell off. Right in front of you. You would have stayed still, if you hadn't seen what was in there. You've been fast and picked it up right before he could do that. That receipt. Was he still carrying it around with him?

The day you and Josuke met, the weather forecast said it was meant to be rainy. And it had been. But right before lunchtime, the sun decided to shine over the rain for some minutes. In those minutes, a handsome, kind boy walked in, in your grandma's bakery.

"I'm here because..." he stuttered for a second, when he first saw you, behind the counter. "...b-because my mom ordered some bread... I'm here on her behalf to take it..." you couldn't do or say anything. His gaze had latched onto yours. You stood there, smiling.

"Y/n, what are you... ooh, Josuke! It's you!" hearing you weren't answering to the customer, your grandma came from the back of the bakery, to help. She brought a huge bag of fresh bread, and handed it to him. Josuke, huh?

"Y/n, you know who he is?" despite your grandma talking, your gazes really didn't want to separate. You shook your head. "He's Tomoko Higashikata's son! Josuke!" he had to look somewhere else for a little, he had to pay for the bread. But he smiled, when your grandma introduced him to you. Then finally, he talked again.

"I might want to come here on my mom's behalf some other time..." he then thanked for the bread, took that damned receipt, and winked at you, before leaving.

You breathed. When the sun disappeared after a few minutes and the rain came back, you ran by the bakery's window.

"Grandma..."

"What is it, y/n, dear?"

"Josuke... when he came in, the rain had no power against the sun... maybe... maybe he's my one..."

"Are you in love already, dear?"

"The sky told me..." you believed in the sky.

I think it's raining today, I didn't want to poke you. I'm not really missing you, I just feel a little blue.

"Give it back, what the hell are you thinking about?" he snatched his wallet from your hands. Then took a close look at it and understood. He heard your muffled sniffles, and tried to touch you. "O-Oi, y/n..." you flinched, when he touched your shoulder, and Josuke withdrew his hand.

"You don't have to make me think you care..." you just said. "But if you're still interested in how have I been doing..." you turned right towards him, but your teary eyes still not meeting his. "Bad. I've been doing the worst ever." The look on his face was a mixture of shocked and melancholic. Almost mortified.

You would have never thought the love between you and Josuke could end up to being something like this. Everytime Josuke was with you, the sky was also clear and beautiful. Except when your love was rainy, along with the sky. When you broke up, it was rainy. It was stormy. When you met again, right there on that bench, it was rainy. Because you weren't together.

"Something bad happened?" you just looked at him, at a loss for words. You couldn't understand if he was being an asshole or just too stupid to understand how bad you had felt since your break up. But you knew what he wanted.

He had always acted like this. When he perfectly knew something, but he wanted to hear it from you directly, he'd feign ignorance. That's how you got your first kiss. He was bringing you home, walking right next to you, after a date. You two stopped right in front of your door.

You started swinging a little on your own feet. But you weren't entering that door, standing there smiling like a kid who's just broken something precious and has to soften her parents.

"What is it, y/n?" he smiled back, playing along with you.

"Come on... you know it..." you got closer. "Josuke..."

"I have no clue, what do you mean?" he giggled.

"Are you doing it on purpose? So I have to directly tell you?" you got close enough to get wrapped in his embrace.

"Maybe..." he teased you, moving a stray lock of hair behind your ear. You just needed to take it all off your chest.

"It's been a while since we started dating, and... I feel like I fell in true love with you, Josuke." he was lovingly staring at you, smiling, the same way he did that day at the bakery. "And this was a desperate request for a first kiss."

You stood on tiptoe, when he leaned down, your lips meeting his for a sweet peck. Then two, three, until they turned into a real kiss. His hands cupping your cheeks, and your arms wrapped around his warm torso. You felt so loved and safe. That night the Moon was shining so much you could get blinded by it. Not even a cloud in the sky.

"I love you, Josuke, I love you so much..."

How can I explain this feeling? It's because we were so good back then. That's why I'm feeling a little sad.

"Are you doing it on purpose? So I have to directly tell you?" Josuke looked back, just on the concrete between his feet, as if it became the most interesting thing to watch to avoid your gaze.

"I'm just worrying about how you've been doing."

"No, you're not." your hands were freezing because of the cold wind, so you hid them under your armpits and closed on yourself again. "You're just waiting to hear me cry about how breaking up with you made me feel terribly miserable, just for you to feel a little more relevant."

Josuke couldn't just say anything. Because deep down he knew that maybe he just wanted to hear you say you missed him, that you were lost without him and shit. Because he knew it was true. But he couldn't just accept it. He had to hear it. But also... he really cared about how you had been doing.

He had messed up a lot of stuff with you, and he knew. But it never affected his love. He'd been able to hide it well, but when you left, he was just as desperate as you. He felt miserable and guilty. Terribly guilty.

"Maybe I do want to hear it directly from you." he admitted, swallowing. "But what I've caused doesn't make me feel proud of myself or more relevant someway." he tried to touch you again. You didn't flinch, this time. He was gentle. So gentle. He'd always been. Even when you had bad arguments, even when you broke up, he had never raised or thought to raise a single hand on you.

You got a way to prove his inner and physical tenderness when you felt ready. Yes. You were by your home. You never were by Josuke's house. It was three in the morning, after a date. You were watching a movie, cuddling on the sofa, and then you would have slept together. But that night, you had other plans for him.

"Josuke..." you caught his attention, cupping his cheek with your hand and turning his head towards you.

"I'm here..." he held you closer, and you smiled. He did that for you. He knew you needed him to guarantee you he loved you, every now and then during your date. But it was your turn, to tell him you loved him.

"I feel ready to make love with you."

When I open my eyes with an unpleasant feeling, I know it's gonna be cloudy today, and it'll rain so much.

He gave you the best first time you could ever dream of. You felt pain. Josuke told you it could happen. But it wasn't his fault. He'd been so gentle, you couldn't believe it. Right after that, you had never felt your boyfriend closer than that. He took great care of you, after you finished. Josuke let you sleep on his bare chest, and you could perfectly hear his heartbeat. You loved listening to it.

You couldn't understand why people always talked about sex as something which dirties and ruins you. You felt the complete opposite. As you and Josuke started falling quietly asleep after your first lovemaking, the first ray of sun of the sunrise reminded you how pure your love was. Josuke was the sun that lit up your life. You felt like you did the right thing.

But you should have listened to your grandma, when she told you that nothing could be perfect forever.

In my opened photo album, there's us smiling brightly. It's a little awkward for us.

"Apparently you weren't so proud of being my boyfriend, too..." you commented. Josuke inhaled, to say something, but then he stopped. "Does Tomoko know anything now or did you hide our break up from her too?"

"Come on..." he huffed, but you were irremovable.

"Josuke, does she know?" you saw him pushing his tongue against your right cheek, inside his mouth.

"...No."

"Obviously."

You started doubting of Josuke during a cloudy day. His mom had ordered some fresh bread from the bakery, and you thought he would have appreciated it, if you chose to bring it to him yourself. Morioh Cho wasn't so big, and you quickly found your boyfriend's house thanks to your grandma's directions.

You rang the bell that said "Higashikata", and waited a couple of seconds, before the door opened. Josuke blinked twice. Then went feral.

"What do you think you're doing here?" you got scared, for a second. You did nothing wrong, you just wanted to do him a favor.

"I wanted to see you, so I brought you myself the bread Tomoko ordered..."

"No. Just no." he gently pushed you away from the door. One thing you had to admit. Even when he was angry, he never physically hurt you. "Don't ever do this again. My mom might..."

"Josukeee... who's this cute girl?" A woman's voice caught your attention from inside the house. Tomoko Higashikata was standing right in front of you. You panicked. You felt like you did something wrong, and saw Josuke's forehead wrinkle.

"S-sorry." you managed to say. You gave Josuke the bag full of fresh bread you were holding, and didn't even look Tomoko in her eyes. "I'm just the granddaughter of the bakery's owner. I saw it was about to rain and I thought it would have been kind of me to help the customers with their orders." Josuke was staring at you, taken aback from your words. "Have a good day."

Why would Josuke be ashamed of introducing you to his mom? You tried to think about it in a different way. Maybe he didn't want Tomoko to ask questions about your relationship and wasn't ready yet to introduce you to her? Your boyfriend called you, that night. You asked for forgiveness, and he made you promise you wouldn't have done it again unless you weren't sure his mom wasn't home. The whole day, the sky had been cloudy.

I think it's raining today, I didn't want to poke you. I'm not really missing you, I just feel a little blue.

"Y/n, I would kick myself in my own ass, for what I've done." you giggled a little, for what he said. You sneezed, though. The cold wind the rain brought was about to get you catch a cold. Josuke took off his uniform's big jacket, and wrapped it around your shoulders. "You're gonna catch a cold, y/n."

"Thank you..." you just mumbled. Despite the rain, that jacket still had Josuke's smell on it. You missed it like air. You were about to say something, when your phone rang. It was right next to you leg, on the bench, so Josuke saw it pretty well.

"Okuyasu?" he asked. "Are you friends with my best friend?" you had no intention to answer the phone. Not now, at least. Okuyasu was a sweetheart, and he helped you a lot after your break up. You would have called him back later.

"After that night he got worried and helped me. Or helped us both, I guess... if you cared enough about me to be at least a little sad after our break up." Okuyasu wasn't there, when you two fought and broke up. But you found the courage to confront Josuke thanks to him.

How can I explain this feeling? It's because we were so good back then. That's why I'm feeling a little sad.

You met Okuyasu while you were working in the bakery. You had seen him before, but he had never seen you. Sometimes it seemed to you that Josuke didn't want you two to meet. Or at least he didn't want Okuyasu to see you. But you could totally imagine him being curious about who could Josuke's girlfriend be. And giggled a little with yourself, when you saw him in the bakery.

"What are you up to, Okuyasu?" your grandma seemed to know everyone in Morioh Cho. She was so friendly with every customer. "You don't come here often." The guy smiled.

"I'm going to Josuke's house tonight." you opened your ears. "I'd like to bring something, he's always inviting me by his house and I don't want to seem rude and go there without something for him."

"Also" Okuyasu continued. "Maybe tonight he'll finally tell me who's this special friend of his... you know... he always talks about her, and I'm eager to know more. I hope she's hot, maybe I'll have a chance if she's single." you felt a storm in your chest. Your grandma looked at you, worried. It was happening again. Josuke was hiding your love from other people again.

You soon understood he wasn't afraid his mother would ask questions about you. He was straight up ashamed of you. An awkward silence fell in the bakery.

"Did.... Did I say something wrong?" Okuyasu blushed. You were grateful he was such a chatterbox. He had just told you everything you needed to know about Josuke.

"You won't need to buy anything here, Okuyasu." he looked perplexed. "I'm the friend Josuke talks about. And I've never been so angry in my whole life." he felt his cheeks burn up.

"Is it about what I said about hoping you were hot? S-Sorry, I-..."

"No. It's not about you." you took off the apron you had to wear at work, angrily. "He keeps on telling everyone I'm a good friend of his. Or that I'm just a telemarketer..." you clenched your fists. "As he did when I called him while he was playing dice with Rohan."

"You aren't a friend of his? You hate him?" Okuyasu was so confused.

"I am his girlfriend. And this makes me mad." his jaw fell.

"Woah, is he nuts? If I had a girlfriend like you, I'd tell the whole Morioh Cho in less that five seconds!"

"Please, Okuyasu. Don't show up at Josuke's house today. I will. Tomoko isn't home tonight, is she?" Okuyasu shook his head. "Perfect. And sorry about this."

"No, it's better for you to confront Josuke as soon as possible on this... it's disrespectful of him to behave this way." he gave you his phone number, just in case you needed to talk with someone afterwards, and your grandma let you go home, to get a rest.

Maybe on a rainy day I'll think of you for a long time. The memories of us crying and laughing, really are so beautiful.

Josuke was sitting on the sofa, waiting for Okuyasu. He had already turned the videogames on, and was ready to play with his best friend. Finally, someone knocked at the door. He opened it with a huge smile, but it disappeared as soon as he saw you and your angered expression.

"Y/n? What are you doing here? Okuyasu's gonna be here any minute..." he tried to - gently - push you outside, but you, a little less gently, pushed him aside and entered his house.

"Okuyasu won't show up. I met him in the bakery. Obliviously, he told me everything I needed to know. And I told him not to come here." Josuke closed the door and turned around to face you.

"You're mad."

"I am the mad one? Will you stop telling the people you care about that I'm nobody? All of this is so fucked up..." he sat on the same sofa he was on before, and rested his elbows on his knees, hiding his face on his hands. "Your mom thinks I'm just the girl of the bakery, Okuyasu thought I was a good friend of yours, and even worse, Rohan thinks I'm a telemarketer... are you ashamed of me, Josuke?"

"It's not it..."

"Why else should you be hiding our love from others?" your voice broke, you were about to cry. He felt powerless. Not even Josuke knew what the matter was with himself. He felt coward. But the fact that he was afraid of telling people he had a girlfriend wasn't affecting his love for you. He couldn't find the words to explain it. "Because you do love me... don't you, Josuke..."

It was on his tongue's tip. Yes, I do. Yes, I do, he was thinking. But words won't come out. He did. He did love you. He was truly in love with you. But in that moment, he couldn't connect two neurons and answer.

"Y-Y/n... I..." right in that moment, the loudest thunder you ever heard, was accompanied by a horrible lightning which struck the closest tree to Josuke's house.

You hated rain. You hated storms. Josuke knew. He hadn't been able to clear the sky to you, this time.

"I've seen enough." you let a tear wet your cheek.

Tell her you love her, fucking bastard, just tell her, Josuke was thinking. But it looked like he had lost his voice. You couldn't believe he could let you go without saying anything. His eyes were shocked, his mouth stuck opened, his hands trembling.

"Thank you for the great days you gave me. No one's ever gonna give me such a bright sun again. I love you, Josuke. But I guess I only bring storms into your life." you turned around, and in less than five seconds, Josuke's house's door slammed behind you.

I just feel a little blue, it's not that I want to go back to those times, I'm just feeling out of it and sad the whole day.

"I wish I could have been able to talk to you, that night." Josuke said. "I've been sad, I've been desperate, after you left. I wanted to get over it immediately, because I thought you would have been better, without me... but I found out Crazy Diamond cannot repair a broken heart." the rain began to decrease.

"I still don't know what was up with you..." you answered. "You think you can explain it to me now?"

"The truth is I was just being a coward." he had become a little more talkative. Josuke ran a hand through his hair. They were almost dry. "I was afraid people would have judged me. Or you. And I didn't want this. But the result was the opposite of what I wanted." this was it? He could have just told you everything that night and it would have been okay by now.

You couldn't imagine Josuke had such a mess in his mind. If someone talked shit behind you and him, you wouldn't have cared. But he was afraid this could happen. And you found out after you broke up more than two months ago.

"Josuke..." you were interrupted by a familiar sound. A bus was coming. You felt sad. Did Josuke have to go?

"It looks like my bus is coming." he stood up, then looked at you. "Keep my jacket, or else you'll catch a cold. You'll give it back tomorrow." A sudden ray of sun blinded your left eye, as you widened your eyes.

"Tomorrow...?"

"I'll come to the bakery to take the bread on my mom's behalf. I missed you." you felt your eyes tear up.

"Josuke..." you whispered, again. You approached him, quickly, right before the bus stopped in front of you, and you got wrapped in a tight and warm embrace. You inhaled his sweet smell, enjoyed his strong arms and listened, once again, to his racing heart. "Will I really see you tomorrow?"

"You will. I promise." he gently kissed your forehead, then got on the bus.

I wanna follow this rain and go back to those good days. Once my heart gets there, will you please stay with me?

Once alone, you realized the rain had stopped. A warm, bright sun was shining on you, and you could go back to the bakery. You took off Josuke's jacket from your shoulders, and folded it, walking towards the bakery. You sometimes smelled it, and felt like crying out of happiness.

When you opened the door, your grandma smiled.

"I knew something happened. This sun doesn't come out without a reason." she told you, seeing how desperately happy you looked. "Was it the young Josuke?" you nodded, holding his uniform tighter.

You couldn't see it, because you spent the rest of the afternoon working in the bakery.

But outside, the sky had gifted you the most beautiful rainbow Morioh Cho had ever seen.

[whattodowithkpop]

Since you sent me an ask about my favorite groups, I'd like to ask you about yours too! 😊 I'm curious to see if we have some groups in common 😗 oh and if we do have similar groups, maybe you can share who your biases are too?

Oh my goodnesss I am so happy you don’t even know how excited I am to have you as a mutual and you’re adorable and I want to give you all the hugs :(((. 

Your answer was so organized and I can only dream of having that organization, but I’ll try my best! I also apologize in advance if this is a longer ask.. I’ll try to make it short.

My ult groups are Seventeen and A.C.E. I have followed Seventeen for three years now and love every single member and song that comes with the name Seventeen! I don’t really have a set bias, but in the past it’s been Seungkwan and Hoshi. A group of friends and I went to see them in Chicago in January and that just threw the bias list out the window XD. 

A.C.E I just got into in July so I haven’t followed them very long, but they quickly rose to the top of the list and I adore them all so much. I’m pretty sure I have all their songs downloaded cause they really don’t have a bad song.  Also a group without a bias list XD, but I do tend to get wrecked by Seyoon and Byeongkwan the most. 

I mainly follow boy groups

Day6 (We have this very much in common!): My bias being Sungjin and Dowoon is my son I will protect him at all costs XD. 

Ateez: Bias Yunho. 

Stray Kids (They are a fantastic group and I’m so glad you’re getting into them even if it takes awhile :)): Bias Changbin. 

Those are my main ones. I listen to a lot of Oneus, Onewe, Mosnta X, Exo, SF9, The Rose, Astro, Block B, Vixx, NCT, B.I.G, N.Flying(This is a band I listen to an unhealthy amount and I still don’t know the members...). I listen to all boy groups really and have a variety of songs from many groups. 

For girl groups I follow not as many... but the girl groups I do follow I would lay down my life for cause they are precious. 

Mamamoo: Impossible to pick a bias... 

(G)-Idle: Yuqi is my bias she is so sweet! 

Twice (Stream I Cant Stop Me cause that is a BOP.): I dont have a bias cause it’s too hard to choose... But I love Dahyun a lot. 

I listen to Everglow, Girls Day, EXID, Sistar (I also miss them dearly :((, but I love all their solo songs too!).  

I listen to a lot of soloists also. 

Chungha, Hwasa, Hyolyn, Jay Park, Eric Nam, Zico, Bumzu, Woosung, Woodz, Dean...

I probably missed a bunch, but I don’t want this to be too long... -Lio
