Beast.
this my writing piece for my own challenge, if that makes sense! I am extremely grateful to everyone who is participating! (and actually a little embarrassed that all of you are so good and then thereâs me).
â” astro moon bin x female reader.
â” fairy tale au, dystopian au, thereâs mentions of blood, death, a plague and violence.Â
Daybreakâs Writing Challenge | Challenge #1
Thatâs not the way things were supposed to turn out for him at all. He was born in one of the most powerful families of the New Land, he was supposed to become a ruler once he became of age, not turn into the monster he was.Â
The plague had never been his problem, he always looked down on people who had to deal with stuff like that, the poor, less fortunate people that could never reach the status he had.
It was never his problem, until the plague hit him as well. It was always said that the âpurerâ race would never face a problem as such, but Bin had become the exception when he got sick.Â
The yellow eyes that returned his stare in the mirror werenât his own, it didnât matter that the reflection copied his every move, touching its horrendous, deformed face with soft, hair covering it whole, or that the felt the pinches of pain as the thing in mirror closed its paws into fists and the claws sank on the palms. He was a monster, and Moon Bin could have never been a monster. A monster couldnât become a ruler.Â
âSearch again!â he growled at the screen, as the usual message in red appeared. Of course he knew there was no cure available for what he had, Bin himself had denied his help for research many times before. But he knew he could find it, he just had to twist things in his favor, it shouldnât be too hard, he was still powerful, but he couldnât risk being rejected in public.
The AI that ran his home apologized again as it showed another error message on the screen of the studio, making Moon Bin fill with rage and shove everything on top his desk all over the room. There was no way he was doomed to become a full beast, he just couldnât let it happen.Â
If Moon Bin had believed in a higher force, he would have thanked it for what happened next. When the man showed up at his door and Nightio, his A.I. let the man in as he begged for mercy. Bin found him the next morning, sleeping in one of the guest rooms and became horribly furious, until he noticed the dirty, ripped robes he was wearing, with the logo of the New Land labs intact. Dragging him by the neck of his shirt, Moon Bin took him downstairs, where his own makeshift lab was, demanding Nightio to give him all the information he could collect about this man. It turned out he was in fact a scientist, one that had ran away recently after they found out he was working on a cure for the disease. In another time, Moon Bin would have been pissed, he might have even punished the poor man, but right now, that same man was the hope he had been looking for.
The scientist worked day and night enclosed in Moon Binâs lab, without food or water until Nightio convinced his master that he should do something to keep the man alive, for he needed the services that he could provide. Bin agreed to let Nightio provide him with whatever he needed and whatever the Scientist asked for, except one thing: His freedom.Â
What Bin wasnât expecting is that someone was looking for the scientist too, his daughter whoâd searched all over for him, through cities and towns and had wandered to Moon Binâs door as well, like sheâd been pulled by a higher force to where her father was.Â
y/n was a scientist as well, taking after her father, all that she wanted was to find a cure to the disease that turned people into beasts, she had lost her own brother to it after he finally had fully lost all of his humanity and their own father had to shoot him dead. y/n was a beautiful young woman as well, sadly being more known over this than the fact that she had a brilliant mind.Â
Nightio, unable to refuse a human help, had also let her inside Moon Binâs hideout realm, offering shelter and food, until its master found out about her the next morning, and once again, let his wrath out by dragging the girl to the basement where she met her father.
âYou have to let him go!â she pleaded âHeâs sick heâ He canât be here!â
âHe should have thought about that before he wandered into my house!â Moon Bin yelled, disgusted as he saw the young woman hold on to her fatherâs arm like her life depended on it.Â
âPlease let him goâ she tried again, âIf you want to hold a prisoner, let me take his placeâ
âNO!â her father screamed, ripping his arm away from her in a second âLet my daughter go, sirâ he begged âShe has nothing to do with thisâ
Bin snorted, âOf course she has nothing to do with this, she wouldnât even be usefulâ although that was mean to be more for himself rather than the man and his daughter, it sparked y/nâs curiosity, seeing it as an opportunity to finally take her fatherâs place.
âWhat do you want?â she questioned, getting up from her spot on the ground as her father squeezed her hand to bring her back down âIâll do it, just tell me what you wantâ
âI said noâ the older man spoke again âJust go, y/n. I am an old man, if I catch the plague too...â
Offended by his statement Moon Bin picked him up from the ground, his yellow eyes staring him down as his face contorted into a growl, but soon he let him fall back down, remembering that he was in fact needed.Â
âI can help youâ y/n crawled in front of her dad âI know things about the cure too, just please let my father goâ
Binâs eyes settled on her and after a moment of silence that seemed to last forever, he nodded. âAlright, as you wish.â Pushing the girl away from her father, Bin grabbed him by the collar of his even filthier shirt and dragged him away, telling Nightio to shut the door once he left, though he could still hear the muffled screams of the woman who hadnât had the chance to say farewell to her own dad.

Rin!! This was so beautifully written! Like, I canât explain but my brain was literally pleased by reading itđ
Also I totally agree that being loved doesnât always mean romantic affection and you showed it perfectly!đ
Thank you so much for writing for the challengeđ„șđ
Redamancy; Amicus Usque Ad Aras
for @daybreakx âs writing challenge; challenge 2
//
g - (bittersweet) fluff, slight angst(?)
p - seonghwa Ă reader
w.c - 613
t.w - none
a.n - my take on the word redamancy, i feel like mutual love doesnât always have to be romantic, so hereâs this piece. was especially inspired after hearing of a divorced couple that still loved each other, just in a different way, which i thought was very interesting and wholesome.

redamancy (n); the act of loving one who loves you, a love returned in full.
⥠victon byungchan x neutral reader. (have i mentioned I am whipped for this boy?)
⥠just a bunch of fluff. This is my writing for challenge #2!
Daybreakâs Writing Challenge | Challenge #2
for some reason I had taylor swiftâs daylight in my head while writing this, so you can listen to it meanwhile.
There were many people to blame for your lack of trust in others but Byungchan was definitely not one of them. He had always been sweet and patient, and above all, honest with you. Byungchan couldnât deny heâd felt attracted  to you from the moment he met you, and although he was a hopeless romantic, he felt that love at first sight wasnât a thing that would go with you. So, he settled to becoming your friend and slowly moving on from there, if thatâs what you wanted as well, and luckily for him you did.
âWhat is this?â you questioned, fighting the smile that was forming on your lips as he placed the hot cup on your hands.
âHmm coffeeâ Byungchan hummed, making himself busy by fixing the beanie on your hair, down to your ears to keep them protected from the cold. âNo sugar, and scalding hotâ he chuckled.
âHuh, you know me so wellâ you looked up at him with a playful grin on your lips. Your warm fingertips reaching for his cheeks, painted a light shade of pink from the weather. You had no idea what you were doing outside with such bad weather, but Byungchan had insisted on going on with your date despite the freezing air.
âArenât I the best boyfriend?â Byungchan smirked, joining one of his hands with yours and taking it to his lips.
âHmmmâ you shrugged âThe best boyfriend wouldnât let me freeze out hereâ
Byungchan clicked his tongue, pulling you closer to him carefully so you didnât spill your coffee. âMinor details, letâs go!â
You followed him, his cold fingers intertwined with yours as he turned to look at you every now and then, smiling every time you glanced back at him, wondering what the hell he was looking at. As you got to the park you usually visited, you couldnât help but whine, you loved it, but you also felt the need to go back home and away from the cold.
âWaitâ He said, looking up at the dark sky and suddenly looking a bit nervous âItâs supposed to happen todayâ
âWhat are you talking about?â your breath left your lips turning into a cloud and you rushed to wrap your arms around him. âWe should justââ halfway through your sentence you knew what he meant, when tiny white flakes started falling from above the two of you.
âFirst snow of the yearâ Byungchan announced proudly, âI know you had never seen snow before so...â
You were speechless as you extended your palm out for the light drizzle to fall on your hand, melting immediately. âHow did you know this would happen?â
âI watched the weather forecast and hoped for the bestâ your boyfriend laughed, âAnd it all worked out in the end, sorry for making you wait in the coldâ he smiled sheepishly, once again fixing your hat although it was perfect.
âThank you for this, loveâ you couldnât help the laugh that escaped your lips. The cold didnât matter anymore since every sensation had been replaced with the warmth of feeling loved by Byungchan, because he had done all of this for you.
âI love you. I love you so muchâ he was surprised by the fact that he didnât stutter in the end, after thinking over and over again that heâd make a fool of himself once he finally said the words. But he felt happy and absolutely certain that his feelings couldnât be more true, but they were going to grow even stronger.
âI love you tooâ reaching for his face once again, you stared at him for a moment before he kissed you tenderly. âMore than anythingâ.

Hello and welcome to my very first Writing Challenge!
What is this?
Well, like the title says, this is the very first Writing Challenge that I have on my blog. I thought about this for a while and finally I have decided to try it, the point of this challenge is to give some inspiration to other writers out there who might be stuck with writerâs block, which is something that happens to me way too often, or simply for those who are looking for new challenges and ways to get inspiration to write.Â
I really want everyone to enjoy this challenge and to take this as an opportunity to have fun, and to promote their works on this site.
The challenge will take place all through June, starting on the very 1st and you can participate as many times as you want. A new challenge will be posted every five days so you have enough time to write the previous one, the prompts will vary from settings, to quotes, auâs, etc. Iâd like to have as much variety as possible.
In order to reblog your entries to the challenge, please make sure you tag me and/or use the #DaybreakxChallenge within the first 5 tags so I can see it! Entries are accepted for any and every group, from boy groups to girl groups, soloists and even OCâs if you want! Just write for whoever you feel like doing so!
Please also check the FAQ post where I talk more about the guidelines of this challenge and if you have any other question, my ask box and dmâs are always open.
I hope you participate in this challenge and have fun with it!Â

I love this!! Again I have no idea how to explain but it was so pleasant to read it, itâs beautifully writtenđ„șđ
Thank you so much for writing for the challenge! Youâre an amazing writerđđ
redamancy/
w/ k.hj x reader
g/ fluff, romance
a.n/ @daybreakxâs challenge 2. word vomit on the word âredamancy.â this might be my best âromanceâ writing so far.
t.w/ none
If loving someone was easy, you would probably had taken it for granted. Yet because you knew loving wasnât easy, you kept on loving. Someone needed it. You needed it. Like day and night. It wasnât easy loving Kim Hongjoong. He was the night. You were the day. It wasnât easy yet here you were awake at some ungodly hour at his studio space.
Take the taxi, Iâll pay the fare. I donât want you walking alone at night.
At night he said. It was morning, nearing dawn. The rendezvous points between day and night were the brief fleeting moments you could love Hongjoong openly. Not a one-sided love where you lavish him with invisible affection displayed in your mind. The LED lights were set to a peach tone. A man-made dawn lighting, it wasnât the exact shade but it was alright. You wondered how Hongjoong would glow in the actual sunrise. You were sure he would appear ethereal, the mere image of it in your mind sent pleasant tingles down your spine. The ticking of keyboards almost put you to sleep until he whirled around in his chair.
âLetâs watch the sunrise.â
What? What did he say? Hongjoong laughed and stood up, hand outstretched, waiting for you to hold it. Was it a minute or ten? You kept staring at him, confounded beyond your imagination. Wasnât he supposed to ask for your opinions on his new track? He grabbed your arm and pulled you up, âCome on then before we missed it.â The door of his studio closed and the rooftop door opened.
Hongjoong wasnât an easy man to love. You were not an easy person to love either. He was actions and you were affirmations. He was the moon and you were the sun and both of you brightened the same sky. The horizon started to lighten. The studio wasnât necessarily placed at the prime spot in the city to watch the sunrise and you preferred it that way. Imperfect. The same way how you loved Hongjoong and how he loved you. Perfect. You were right, he was out of this world under the growing light. How you wished you had a camera to commemorate but it was alright not having it. Hongjoong would gladly text you in the darkest of the night for you to witness the sight of him basked in the light again and again.
âYou love me into the night. Let me love you into the day.â

This was beautiful!! And you know, heartbreaking but thatâs awesomeđ€§đ
Thank you so much for writing for the challenge!! đđ
La Valse de LâĂ©ternitĂ©
†prince!Seonghwa x reader †genre: royal!AU // bittersweet (of fluff to angst) †t/w: sfw, slight mentions of death might need some tissues for the end?, rated PG †count: 1.8k+
a/n - sorry this is late, but coming out of my hermit cave to finally write an actual one-shot for @daybreakx writing challenge #3. What started out as a mini scenario turned into a mini story instead, and now I just need to lie on the floor for a week (guess thatâs what happens when you dive back right into writing after years of hiatus). I hope you guys enjoy it and please feel free to give feedback đ Â
â„ïč€ââââââââïč„â„ïč€ââââââââïč„â„ïč€ââââââââïč„â„ ïč€ââââââââïč„â„ ïč€ââââââââïč„â„ Â Â
âHello my love.â
The timbre of his voice weaved in harmony with the orchestral symphony that filled the magnificent ballroom.
âWell donât you look dashing, my prince.â
The hand that held your own was as gentle as the adoring gaze he had on you. âThe night has only just begun and already youâre enticing me with such flattery.â Before bowing slightly, full lips gracing the back of your hand peppering the surface with soft kisses.
âWere my own words back then so profound that you just had to re-use them?â you replied with a teasing counter-attack and a chaste peck on his cheek.
âIn all honesty though, youâd put Aphrodite to shame.â
âAnd you accuse me of using flattery, have you no shame Seonghwa?â
Pulling you flush against his chest by your waist, âFor you Iâd risk dignity and all,â he murmured and took a moment to lean his forehead against yours. Then and there, you both allowed yourselves to get lost in each other. Â
Only when the sounds of strings and woodwinds along with echoes of conversations from below floated back up to your ears did Seonghwa prompt, âShall we?â Â Â Â Â
This wasnât the first time he guided you down the Grand Staircase and still, the view never cease to leave you in awe. Stoic marble columns stood tall with regal history carved into them, holding up the masterpiece of a ceiling above where the paintings were witnesses to the happenings on the white gold marble floors. Crystal chandeliers and torchĂšres bathed the room with a delicate glow.
You noticed the balustrades were adorned with lush flower arrangements of varying colours. The last time you saw such extravagant decorations was for your royal engagement to Seonghwa.
The floral aroma was prominent and filled your senses pleasantly. Yet there was a faint underlying scent that seemed slightly out of place.Â
Before you could put any further thought into it, an announcement was made to alert the guests of your presence. Already parting a way to the centre of the ballroom, Seonghwa and you turned to greet them as you both walked by.
Oddly enough there werenât any familiar faces amongst the crowd. âWere our parents not attending the ball tonight?â
âThey are probably at the tables already, discussing plans for our ceremony which will most likely be sprung upon us by tomorrow morning. You know how exuberant my mother is when it comes to weddings.â Â Â Â Â Â
A soft laugh left your lips at the sweet reminder; in exactly two weeks youâd be walking down a very different kind of aisle. Your eyes glanced down at the blue sapphire that sits proudly on your ring finger. The same shade of blue that your gown of fine chiffon silk was made in and the trims that complemented Seonghwaâs royal ivory suit.Â
âWill you do me the honour of having this dance with me, milady?â
Sheer willpower prevented you from rolling your eyes at his youthful playfulness, after all itâs a charming point of his. Instead deciding to indulge your prince by playing along.
With a dramatic curtsy, you accepted.
The maestro gave two loud taps of his baton and a new waltz begun.
Seonghwa and you glided across the floor, letting your feet step in duet with the melody. Youâve felt like you have heard this tune before, but once again your mind cannot seem to settle on a precise answer.
Donât go looking, please.

*whispers* I didnât need this, Jaemin was already wrecking me.
Anyhow, this is so cuteeeee and soft and I loved itđ„șđ
Thank you so much for writing for the challenge!! đđ
Redamancy
n.the act of loving one who loves you. a love returned in full
a/n: this was mostly my attempt at writing a domesticated Jaemin but idk if this really suits him, I personally find the best kind of love in the small moments that you share so I tried to make it like that
Word Count: 1155
   Despite sharing the same apartment, you rarely saw Jaemin the past couple of days. He was currently working hard promoting his newest album and you were in the middle of taking college exams.
Both of you were exhausted and stressed, normally couples would fight and want a break but Jaemin preferred the time spent together. He always said it was his healing time when you two would spend the small moments together, even if they were rushed.

Wow! This is so well written! Your style is beautifulđđ
The whole piece was super cute! Thank you so much for joining the challenge!đ
the moonstone and her stars.
You knew what you were expecting when he removed his hands from your eyes, presenting you with a jewellery box. You knew what kind of prize was waiting inside, judging by the size of the box: too large to hold just a small, solo ring for the finger, but too small to contain a full ensemble of pieces.
You knew what was coming, and yet, you still gasped at the sight of the boxâs contents. Or rather, at its sheer beauty.
Thereâs truly nothing like it; the sensation of running your fingers over a new necklace, feeling its soft chain, its delicately-placed gemstones, glimmering like stars, the consistent spacing between each one as they increase in size and perform a crescendo that leads you to the star of the show: the center stone. In this case, itâs quite literally a moonstone, sitting on the pads of your fingers, smiling up at you.
At that same moment, the sun makes her appearance at your window, shining her light on the moonstoneâs gleaming face.
The resulting glint is dazzling, casting a bright flash across your bedroom, directly at the boy lying on your bed who ends up wincing. Itâs almost as if the light wanted to catch his attention, a small signal sent from the universe, telling him heâs really outdone himself with this yearâs anniversary gift.
Or maybe itâs just a coincidence. âThe lightâs attacking me,â he groans with complaint. You giggle, partly because of your child-like fiancĂ©âs words and partly at your own immaturity as you immediately angle the stone against the window so that another ray of light pierces his eyes.
Whining, he gets up from his slouching position that had rendered him uncannily resembling a lazy cat. You purse your lips, laughing silently at your amusing observation as he begrudgingly stands up and reaches to you. Anticipating retaliation, you lean back, but the sleepy boy with half-shut eyelids makes no attempt. He simply lifts the silver chain out of your hands and circles it around your head, focusing on clasping the two ends together at the nape of your neck.
âThank you for the gift, my sleepy cat.â You watch him through the mirror, the small smile on his face either at the nickname or at your appreciation. Probably the former, since the two of you are long past formalities.
âYou like it, then? Iâm glad. I was careful to choose a moonstone, for obvious reasons,â he boasts, his hands grazing your neck having secured the necklace in place. You guide them around your shoulders, pulling so his head rests on top of yours and he can see the gem perfectly placed on your dĂ©colletage, as if seated in a throne fit for no other.
âBecause youâre my moon?â You ask innocently, pouting as you tilt your head to look up at him properly.
He scoffs. âNo, because Iâm Moon Junhui, silly.â You roll your eyes at his lame joke, as he giggles into your hair, pressing a kiss on the crown of your head.
It does always make you chuckle: Moon Junhui, born in the month of June, also happens to have the moonstone as his birthstone. Added to the fact that youâve always called him your moon⊠maybe itâs some sort of fatalistic sign.
Or maybe itâs just a coincidence.
â.°â`âąâ°â.â°â`âąâ°.â°â`âąâ°.â
happy birthday, junhui! you are so brilliant and lovely, and i hope your birthday is as wonderful as you.
â.°â`âąâ°â.â°â`âąâ°.â°â`âąâ°.â
regarding @daybreakxâs writing challenge 2, my inspiration for this piece came as the word âredamancyâ connoted elegance and a sort of material, physical beauty to me, at first glance. and a common way of giving and receiving love is, of course, through gifts! and so this idea was born!
thank you for reading! please check out the other entries for challenge 2 and feel free to glance at the other things Iâve written, if you like!
