You’d like to think you’re still on guard and prepared when, a full week later, Hyunjin takes his turn to try and fluster you.

He comes up behind you during a shoot while you’re intently monitoring the progress of I.N’s (who’s coordi you’re shadowing today) lip tint slowly fading away. You’ll have to snatch him between takes and crack open the new tint you’d gotten the other day. It’s almost the exact same shade, and the brand has a lot more staying power than the one he has on now.

You’re used to it when he drops his head onto your shoulder in the middle of your disgruntled pouting. Somewhen during the middle of your first week Hyunjin had discovered that you didn’t mind being an arm rest. He’d since tested your boundaries and you didn’t really seem to mind him hanging off of you at all, especially when you were in work mode and couldn’t even be bothered to notice him.

You got used to it quickly, and he appreciated having a convenient resting place in the middle of a shoot from time to time. If it meant his face got a little too close to the other Stray Kids’ sometimes, well, all the better. The two of you still got anticipatory looks from the eyes that knew your little game was still afoot, but neither of you minded. After all, the audience was part of the game.

You know something is different today as soon as Hyunjin’s arms snake around your middle. Clingy he may be, but Hyunjin had been very tentative when he started clinging, even if he’d disguised it with whiny dramatics. Every tiny test of your boundaries was another theatrical production. Truthfully you hadn’t minded at all. He’d shown great prudence in only picking ploys you could easily and understandably push him away with. You simply hadn’t.

So the quiet embrace was very out of character for what you knew of Hyunjin thus far. You knew that much. What you weren’t certain of was he was up to. Then he turns his head to nose at your hair, his lips centimeters from the hollow behind your ear, and you know exactly what’s going on.

Miraculously your heart rate doesn’t jump immediately. You’re pretty sure it’s the trance work puts you in that works in your favor. He breathes in quietly and lets it out again in a satisfied huff.

“You smell so nice,” He mumbles into your hair and WOW you are not ready for his voice to be that close. You valiantly fight the shiver that wants to make its way through you as his breath caresses the shell of your ear. Instead, you reach up and behind you to drag his head a bit closer.

You turn only slightly, just enough that your lips barely brush his jawline as you speak, your hand still gently resting on the back of his head, making sure not to ruin the stylist eonni’s hard work. You don’t take your eyes off of I.N as you offer your thanks in a low voice.

After, you adjust his head so that you can comfortably rest your head on top of his, as if the two of you were lovers watching a show. Then you lower your arm and settle both of your hands on the arms around your waist, leaning back into him, casual as you please.

The two of you remain, basically cuddling while standing up, for several more minutes.

You’re not sure what boldness had allowed Hyunjin to make this move in the first place, but it’s clear as the two of you remain in that position, that it wasn’t made to last. You can feel his face slowly heating from where it was still resting in the crook of your neck. Conversely, you find yourself calming down. You’re a lot less irritated with life when Hyunjin finally admits defeat and scurries off to bother his group members.

That doesn’t stop you from snatching up I.N, new lip stain in hand, as soon as the opportunity presents itself. You update your mental tally as you update I.N’s makeup.

You’ll give Hyunjin a point for attacking several of your weak points in one go, whether he was aware of it or not. But you’re deducting half a point for fleeing your cuddle. And you’re certain you yourself deserve a point this round, for holding up admirably under pressure. Coordis 4, SKZ - 1.5.

“You look like Lee Know Hyung when you smile like that,” I.N informs you wearily, leaning away from you as soon as you release him, “I don’t know what it was, but it wasn’t me.”

You weren’t aware you were making any sort of face, but if it scares I.N so much, you’ll simply have to lean into it. You school your face into your sweetest, most menacing smile.

“I’ve no idea what you’re talking about, I.N-ssi.” You inform him primly. A manager sweeps by and spirits I.N away before you can menace him any further. You shrug to yourself about it. They make it too easy sometimes.

MileApo and Brokeback Mountain 🤠🏔🐎

(an incomplete history, I'm sure)

Apo first tweeted this picture of them photoshopped in the iconic BBM poster in January 2021 to promote KinnPorsche (Filmania)

In June 2022, Mile talked about how Brokeback Mountain is his favorite LGBTQ film during an iQIYI interview released during pride month, for KinnPorsche (BOC) promotion.

OK Mile. 👁👄👁 what did you flash back to ... what did you understand about yourself???

In September 2022, Mile missed the KPWT Send Off due to having COVID, and Apo wore both his own jacket and Mile's jacket to make sure Mile's presence was felt at the Send Off.

Twitter users also noticed Apo recreated the iconic ending scene of Brokeback Mountain with Mile's charity jacket. (It me. I'm twitter users.)

OK other people noticed the parallels too 😂

In January 2023, Mile posted to his IGS photos of cowboy hats with the horse emoji tag. See this very recent post for Mile about how Apo reminds him of horses and of course the horse art BD present.

Call this one a reach if you want I won't be mad but you can't deny the fact that today (March 2023), it was Apo who showed up in the cowboy hat with their Brokeback Mountain inspired airport couple coordi 😂

In conclusion: cowboys are gay culture and for the gays only, I am extremely pleased BBM ruined cowboys for the straights and I am not taking comments or criticisms at this time. Save a horse ride a cowboy. 👋🏇

john price, the ever so composed captain, goes absolutely bonkers when you are in your sleep wear and im not even talking about the racy ones, he gets into heat over the plaid coordi which is literally consisted of a sleeveless blouse that falls until your lower hips and pants (in his defense, he can peep your pert ass when the hem of the blouse raise). he won't stop tryna give you babies ://

I know we talk about how fucking nasty in love Ghost is for you but the Cap'n has fuck-nasty tendencies, too. He's just sneaky with his lmao.

Hell, you can do the most mundane thing and next thing Price knows, he's rock fucking hard.

You're a sight in your sleepwear, sweetheart, but when you wear one of his old shirts to bed?

Like hell you'll be sleeping.

SKZ x Coordi (Intro Part) a1 d3

[Caution: These are not full fics, or even full parts of fics for some, these are part of my writing progress archive!]

Concept: Reader is a successful makeup artist with a notorious and prolific career and no self awareness. Reader joins JYP as a part of Stray Kids' team and encounters their hazing ritual for new coordis: flirting.

Word Count: 1,178 Notes: This spawned because of my conviction that I could never get my makeup done by a professional bc I would fall in love. Getting your makeup done by someone else just feels very intimate to me (ik its not, ok, I'm just touch starved T^T). It's sort of lending itself to long one-shot style formatting, but for tumblr purposes I'm posting it in parts. Also, I think I accidentally avoided pronouns for Reader? Not sure how but I didn't see any when I was reviewing this part. Will update as I post (idk how to add emojis, just imagine a thumbs up here pls TT^TT). Needs to be edited for clarity. Warnings: None that I know of? Reader has weird self esteem but it's not bad?

You're fairly sure, by the time your sunbae finishes showing you around and giving you the low-down on your new duties, that you'd gotten this job over other make-up artists because you were the safe choice. You suppose it's not an awful thing to be thought of as safe and professional. You can’t help feeling stung anyways.

You'd come to this conclusion after your sunbae, while showing you a few of the dressing rooms in the company building you'd be working in, casually drops, "oh, yeah, if you end up having relations with one of the idols, just make sure the media and management don't find out. No one else will rat you out." mid-tour.

You'd had to stop and give your sunbae the most confused and alarmed look you could manage, and when she'd seen she'd immediately laughed and made the face back at you. That made you crack, and the two of you ended up giggling together for a minute. Once you'd calmed down, she elaborated.

"It's a bit of an open secret that the unattached idols will sleep with a willing coordi every now and then," she explained "As long as management doesn't find out, and the media is entirely clueless, it's pretty much useless to try and stop it." You’d nodded along, fascinated by how similar celebrities were around the world. Sure, the cultures surrounding them were different, but there was almost always a similar sort of system when you were contracted long-term somewhere.

"Staff are pretty safe options for them, at least here at JYP.” Your sunbae had continued, “They vet our staff and stylists really well." You’d nodded again. The background check had been intensive and you’d had to sign a lot of release forms about it. It was one of the things you’d liked most about this opportunity, actually.

"Your group in particular have probably fucked at least 2 dozen coordis between them." You’d choked on air and turned to her incredulously again. What was with her and dropping bombs like this on you? It was your first day! She’d just laughed and rolled her eyes at you. "Why are you so scandalized? There's 8 of them." She reasoned, "That's, like, 3 flings a piece. Not that many." You’d conceded her point with a tilt of your head. You're sure the actual numbers aren't so even, but she had made an excellent point regardless.

"I guess that makes sense," You’d mused, "I mean, they're grown men, right? Their hands must get awful tired." That startled a laugh out of your sunbae and you’d grinned at her before you continued. "But, sunbaenim, you won't have to worry about that from me." You’d stated confidently. She’d shot you a questioning look, so you’d continued, “They’re both my clients and my coworkers under my contract. Two types of people I categorically refuse to sleep with.”

She’d laughed again, simply saying “That’s probably for the best.” and moving on with your tour. You’d let yourself be distracted by memorizing everything she was telling you and promptly forgot all about your scandalous conversation.

Despite moving on, a seed of doubt had been planted in you. You couldn’t help but think back to one of the odder questions you’d been asked when you were interviewing for this position. As an independent make-up artist you’d had to negotiate everything yourself, and at the time you’d assumed it to simply be part of their vetting process.

“What are your views on workplace relationships?” They’d asked. At the time you’d simply said you strived for friendship with both your clients and coworkers, but that you preferred professionalism over all else. Which was true, obviously, but after that conversation with your sunbae you couldn’t help but add a new context to the question.

That doubtful seed sprouted at the end of your tour, when your sunbae gave you another warning.

“Don’t mind the boys, by the way,” She’d said out of nowhere. “They’re playful, all of them, but they’ll respect a boundary to the death the moment you set it.” Once again you’d had to look at her, hopelessly confused, and you’d become pretty sure at that point that she just liked getting a reaction out of you because she snorted a laugh at whatever face you’d made and explained herself.

“I mean that they can be pretty loud and playful with both each other and staff. That includes being flirty and touchy.” she said, “I think it comes with the territory of being an idol. All that fanservice must do something to them.” She laughed, and you’d smiled along, still somewhat confused of the warning.

She must have noticed, because she elaborated further, “It can be flustering for new stylists.” She explained, and you finally started to understand, “A lot of the time it’s the first time a new stylist has been so close to an idol, you know? You have to prepare for it, like, mentally.” She made a weird gesture toward her head and you’d giggled at her antics but shook your head.

“I’ve seen so many beautiful people at this point in my life that I'm pretty sure I'm immune.” you’d declared with a chuckle. You weren’t lying either, you’d seen so many examples of so many different culture’s beauty standards you could probably write a book on it.

You’d sort of made it your career’s goal to learn as many different styles and skin and face types as you possibly could. You’d done pretty well by that goal so far, doing everything from tiny private boudoir shoots to high profile fashion shows, just about anywhere you could get to, from Cairo in Egypt, to Hollywood in California, to tiny barely-named towns all over Europe.

“Idols are different!” Your sunbae insisted, “There are hot people everywhere, but idols are built different. They’re manufactured to be desirable.”

“So are models,” you’d dismissed with a wave, “Honestly, sunbaenim, I’ll be fine. If anything, it’s the idols you should worry for.” you’d given her a saucy wink and she’d howled with laughter and clapped in delight. You’d giggled right along with her, and when you’d both calmed again, you continued. “No, but really, I’ve been told I can be quite intense when I’m focused, so maybe you should be warning the group instead.”

She’d waved you off, saying “It’ll do them some good to be humbled by someone they have no chance with.” with a devious giggle. And that had been that. The click of a conclusion sliding into place in your mind had sounded and you’d become certain that you’d been the safest of the candidates who’d applied.

It hurt, just a bit, because you’re used to being selected for your experience and ability to mimic and blend styles, not for your personal beliefs. You stave off the hurt by reminding yourself that reputation matters in this industry. If they hired you because you value your professionalism, then you’d show them exactly how professional you could be! You’d wrapped up your tour with mixed feelings and lots of determination.

[discluded]

firstly 😂 Tong calls them MileApo too. they are That Couple you refer to as a set

Mile talks about Kinn and Porsche's intentions in the epsiode 7 bathroom scene during THC.

Kinn wants to win and it's a scene of revenge with mixed emotions... (sex solves relationship problems when you are bad at words 🤣)

In the second clip which was chronically first, Mile is describing what scene the kids chose and Apo is looking down and shy. The bed referenced is about the surprise element they threw in (the kids had Kinn's bedroom as the backdrop instead of the bathroom)

they were so beautiful in this episode.

closet wizard id'd their outfits to be from the new Mugler x H&M collection. 😂 not even a couple event and they have couple outfits. well done to their stylist 😘🤩

afterwards they be flirting on Twitter 😭 (translation by Irene)

they figured out to con us into watching so Apo will be back again next week 🥲

[entomologistt]

So I was cleaning my room and coordi fell off my drawer—I thought nothing of it since obvs I’ll pick her up later…To find that her arm is gone and I was like “oh noooo her glock arm”

But after taking this picture I realized… HER PONYTAIL IS GONE TOO 😭😭😭

⚠️ WARNING GRAPHIC CONTENT⚠️

[ 📹 Horrific scenes from the recovery of a woman who was targeted by a Zionist sniper as she attempted to exit the Al-Said Hospital, in the north of Gaza, resulting in the immediate amputation of her leg. ]

🇮🇱⚔️🇵🇸 🚀🏘️💥🚑 🚨

DAY 242 IN THE ISRAELI OCCUPATION'S GENOCIDE IN GAZA: ALL HOSPITALS IN RAFAH CLOSED AS UNITED NATIONS AGENCY DECLARES THE SITUATION "CATASTROPHIC", THE GUARDIAN DECLARES HAMAS "STILL STRONG" DESPITE NON-STOP BOMBING AND SHELLING, GENOCIDE CONTINUES WITH ONGOING MASSACRES OF CIVILIANS

On 242nd day of the Israeli occupation's ongoing special genocide operation in the Gaza Strip, the Israeli occupation forces (IOF) committed a total of 7 new massacres of Palestinian families, resulting in the deaths of no less than 71 Palestinian civilians, mostly women and children, while another 182 others were wounded over the previous 24-hours.

It should be noted that as a result of the constant Israeli bombardment of Gaza's healthcare system, infrastructure, residential and commercial buildings, local paramedic and civil defense crews are unable to recover countless hundreds, even thousands, of victims who remain trapped under the rubble, or who's bodies remain strewn across the streets of Gaza.

This leaves the official death toll vastly undercounted as Gaza's healthcare officials are unable to accurately tally those killed and maimed in this genocide, which must be kept in mind when considering the scale of the mass murder.

"There may be more Hamas militants in the north of Gaza, supposedly cleared by Israeli forces months ago, than in Rafah, the southern city in the territory described by Israeli officials as the extremist Islamist organisation’s “last stronghold”."

That's the assessment of analysts according to a piece published in The Guardian today, Tuesday, June 4th. In the article, The Guardian describes the Hamas resistance movement as "still strong" in northern Gaza.

Despite the claims of the Israeli occupation's authorities, that the occupation army has destroyed at least four brigades of Hamas militants, the fiercest fighting to occur so far was during the occupation's second invasion of Jabalia, in Gaza's north, after supposedly clearing the area of Resistance militants early on in the war.

“We do have to remember there are more Hamas armed people in the north of Gaza in the places that the IDF has already moved out of than … in Rafah … Those are the IDF’s numbers. This is why the IDF had to go back into Jabaliya and … [Al-]Zeitoun [a neighborhood southeast of Gaza City], Hamas is controlling all those areas,” the head of "Israel's" national security council from 2021 to 2023, Eyal Hulata, is quoted as saying by The Guardian.

Rather than admitting that the occupation army isn't anywhere near as strong as it claims to be, or that the Resistance isn't anywhere near as weak as they said it was, The Guardian instead goes on to assess that "the battles in Jabaliya between lightly armed Hamas militants and a powerful IDF force underlined the ability of Hamas to return to parts of Gaza from which it was forced to retreat by earlier Israeli offensives, threatening a “forever war” for months or even years to come, as Israel tries to stamp out a tenacious insurgency, experts say."

According to the article, residents in Jabalia told The Guardian that they'd witnessed Hamas officials just last month patrolling local markets, enforcing price controls and organizing the distribution of humanitarian aid.

“There was a Hamas government in control, especially through the police, but it was low profile because they were being targeted and they did just very basic duties. It wasn’t like before the war,” The Guardian quotes Joe Shamala as saying, a 26 year-old resident who had fled Jabalia recently.

"Other civil organisations more or less run by Hamas also allow low-profile but effective governance," The Guardian added.

In other news, the head of the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Aid (OCHA), Andrea Di Domenico, warned today that the situation in the Gaza Strip has become catastrophic, and is "getting worse," emphasizing that all hospitals in Rafah were no longer functioning.

“There are major efforts to re-establish a hospital in the central region of Gaza, but there are no longer operating hospitals in Rafah, except for field hospitals," Dominco is quoted as saying.

Speaking at a press conference, Domenico told how medical teams from all over the world have been sent to Gaza, but that these doctors were unable to find someplace to treat their wounded patients.

He went on to state that it had become "very difficult for United Nations operations to continue their presence in Gaza in light of the current situation."

"To be honest," he went on, "I believe that there is no other place in the world where the regime is suffering from great pressure, and I believe that there is no other United Nations mission that can continue its activities under these circumstances other than Gaza."

Meanwhile, the Israeli occupation forces continue pushing ever deeper into Rafah, while heavily bombing and shelling across the entirety of the Gaza Strip.

This comes in spite of orders given last month by the International Court of Justice (ICJ), at The Hague, to "immediately halt" all ground operations in the Rafah Governate, and further, ordering the occupation to allow the free-flow humanitarian aid through the Rafah border crossing.

After several weeks of ground operations in the north of Gaza and in the Rafah Governate, driving large parts of the civilian population into the central Gaza Strip, the Israeli occupation forces (IOF) have been heavily bombing and shelling in several areas of central Gaza, targeting residential homes by the dozen.

Occupation warplanes launched several raids on the Bureij Camp last night, with one of the strikes targeting and destroying the home of journalist Muhammad Ghanem, killing four Palestinians and wounding several others.

In further war crimes, IOF fighter jets bombed four residential towers, including the Al-Ahlam and Al-Maghari towers, in the center of the Bureij Camp, in central Gaza, within a two hour period, causing enormous damage to the buildings and the surrounding neighborhood.

According to local reporting, the IOF warplanes fired at least one missile into the Al-Maghari Tower, resulting in five casualties who were transported to Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital in Deir al-Balah.

The same series of Zionist airstrikes also targeted the "Hamad Block-9" tower and the "Al-Quds Block-7" tower in the Bureij Camp.

Another raid in the Bureij Camp, at dawn on Tuesday, bombed the residential home for the Ghanem family on Block-10, with a number of casualties rushed to Al-Aqsa Martyrs Hospital in Deir al-Balah.

The Israeli assault continued when occupation aircraft bombed a civilian vehicle and a group of civilians in the vicinity of the entrance to a displacement shelter north of Deir al-Balah, south of Gaza City, killing 7 people and wounding 20 others.

Local reporting states that the "targeted area is crowded with displaced people near a college used as a shelter and housing hundreds of families," adding that a witness pointed to "the remains of the victims and bloodstains scattered around the place and on parked vehicles."

Meanwhile, another occupation airstrike targeted an empty room in the Abu Helu School, which houses displaced families, though luckily no casualties were reported in the attack.

The same cannot be said with another Israeli airstrike, which targeted the Al-Amsi family home in the New Camp area of the Nuseirat Camp, also in central Gaza, killing two people and wounding a number of others.

In the Rafah Governate, south of Gaza, Zionist soldiers are destroying dozens of homes near the border with Egypt, and along with the Zaroub roundabout area, while also bombing several neighborhoods in the city of Rafah.

An IOF airstrike also targeted the Khirbet al-Adas neighborhood, north of Rafah, while local paramedic crews recovered four bodies after another bombing near the Al-Najjar Hospital, east of Rafah.

In the meantime, in the northern Gaza Strip, an Israeli airstrike bombed the home of the Ghabayen family in the Al-Daraj neighborhood, east of Gaza City, while the Zionist forces continued detonating residential homes in the vicinity of the University College, in the Tal al-Hawa neighborhood, south of the city.

An occupation warplane also bombed the Daghmush family's residential home near the Jordanian Hospital, in the Al-Sabra neighborhood, south of the Gaza City.

Meanwhile, as the day went on, the Israeli occupation forces continued hammering residential homes with airstrikes and shelling in the Bureij, Al-Maghazi, and Al-Nuseirat Camps, in central Gaza, as well as in Al-Masdar village, killing another 13 Palestinians and wounding many others.

The Zionist air forces also bombarded the eastern neighborhoods of Khan Yunis, in the southern Gaza Strip, while occupation vehicles opened fire east of Al-Qarara, amidst violent artillery shelling.

As a result of the Israeli occupation's ongoing special genocide operation in the Gaza Strip, the endlessly rising death toll in this war on civilians now exceeds 36'550 Palestinians killed, including over 15'000 children and over 10'000 women, while another 82'959 others have been wounded since the start of the current round of Zionist aggression, beginning with the events of October 7th, 2023.

I wish we had more information on the real Coordinator. Like we have all this lore for Martha Behamfil, but I wish we got to know more about who Coordi really is. What's her real name? Why was she training under Evelyn? Why does she prefer other identities to her own? She's just such a fascinating character to me and I wish her deduction quests were more about her than (what I presume to be) the identity she uses

No because that’s so true, she’s such an interesting character I hope we get lore updates for her.
