#haru is fine i just think her introduction being so late in the game makes her social link arc feel rushed and hectic

[femmefitz]

I can't imagine romancing anyone in persona 5 except maybe Ann. All the other girls it makes no sense to me. And I think the adult women should die honestly.

VAZZRAJI: ROCK DOWN Chapter

[0:00]

  SHO: Now then, is everyone ready?

ALL: Yes~!/Yeah.

SHO: Shall we begin? VAZZROCK Radio, a.k.a. VazzRaji is~

ALL: Starting!

  SHO: Alright, it’s started. It’s VazzRaji: ROCK DOWN Chapter.

SHO: It’s the TsukiPro famous live broadcast radio to get to know everyone better. Today’s main hosts will be me, ROCK DOWN’s leader Onoda Sho and~

RUKA: ROCK DOWN’s MC meaning~ It’s me, Nadumi Ruka will be delivering it to you~!

RUKA: We’re in your care, okay~? Alright, everyone, let’s get this party started! Applause~

(everyone starts clapping)

SHO: Then, let’s start with the self-introductions. Let me see…

SHO: Shall we go clockwise starting with Haruto?

HARUTO: Got it.

RUKA: Ah, a little explanation for those who don’t understand. Right now, the members are sitting at a very round tea table. (1)

REIJI: Why is it at a tea table though? Is it because there are a lot of people?

REIJI: Plus, isn’t it kinda mean to have six grown dudes sitting in a low tea table like this?

AYUMU: If the problem is with the number of people, wouldn’t a long rectangular table be fine, too?

REIJI: Right?

GAKU: I heard from the staff that it’s a tea table from tradition.

GAKU: It seems like a lot of dramas have been born on this very tea table.

REIJI: Wait, wait, wait! What kind of dramas are born in a radio broadcast in the first place?!

GAKU: Other times it’s a serious betting game, other times it’s a serious game of life. And sometimes, it’s a “hey, look over there” kind of competition.

GAKU: It seems like a lot of very personal and famous competitions have happened here.

HARUTO: I-it seems like they were just playing around…

GAKU: Well, that’s ‘cause it’s that kind of radio broadcast.

RUKA: Alright guys, stop~! You’re getting too heated about a tea table.

RUKA: We still haven’t introduced ourselves yet. To the listeners, we just sound like a bunch of dudes who suddenly got excited about a tea table’s history.

SHO: Even Haruto who was all ready to do a self-introduction looks as if he stopped wanting to talk midway.

GAKU: Oh yeah, that was right. Haruto, we’re sorry.

AYUMU: We’re sorry. Please continue.

REIJI: Alright, Haruto~ It’s your turn. Speak as much as you want!

REIJI: This is your chance to be playful and show your quirky side!

[02:40]

  HARUTO: I’m ROCK DOWN’s Kujikawa Haruto. It’s nice to meet you.

REIJI: U-uh… That wasn’t playful at all, huh…

HARUTO: I had planned on being very playful though…!

REIJI: …

AYUMU: At what part…?

HARUTO: I made a weird face right at the end.

ROCK DOWN: Ah…

RUKA: Ah, that’s too bad!! It’s totally too unfortunate!

RUKA: Haru-kun, this is a radio broadcast. Just the sound’s being broadcast. They can’t see your face.

HARUTO: Oh goodness…!

REIJI: I feel like these jokes won’t end so I’m going next!

REIJI: (clears throat) I’m Amaha Reiji, ROCK DOWN’s sexiest man. It’s nice to meet you~

AYUMU: You’ll describe yourself like that…?

AYUMU: I’m ROCK DOWN’s Tachibana Ayumu. I’m not used to radio broadcasts so, I’m a little nervous.

AYUMU: I will be in your care.

GAKU: I’m Oguro Gaku. Please call me Gaku, or Gakkun, or whatever you like.

GAKU: Please enjoy yourselves as we slowly unravel our hearts to you.

RUKA: Welp, Haru-kun’s was a bit of a fail but the rest went on smoothly~

SHO: (chuckles) Let’s continue on with this kind of atmosphere then.

RUKA: You’re right!

SHO: This VazzRaji is for the fans to be able to get to know us better. It’s a radio where we’re all supposed to have fun~

RUKA: We can do convos like a while ago but, that’s normally how we’re like backstage or back at the dorms.

SHO: It’s our usual conversation, huh?

RUKA: Exactly! Let’s do it just like that, with a style that’s not trying too hard~

SHO: Maybe there will be people who’d be surprised and say, “Oh, so that’s what he’s like,” huh~?

SHO: Speaking as the leader, I know that everyone has their own cool and cute side. They all have their own appeal so, I hope that the listeners will be able to see that as well.

REIJI: Sho should show his cute side more, then.

SHO: (chuckles) I hope I meet their expectations.

HARUTO: I know all about Sho's cute sides so I'll present them all later.

HARUTO: I’ll try to do my best to show all my cute sides, too!

GAKU: Haruto’s got a “little brother” atmosphere so I think you’re already cute without trying.

HARUTO: Gaku-san…! What do you plan to do by making my heart throb like that?

GAKU: I wasn’t expecting anything.

HARUTO: Reiji-san, you’re making a shocked face over there. Please, don’t hesitate to spoil me, too. I don’t mind.

REIJI: Uwah… If we’re talking about wanting little brothers, I’d prefer Ayumu.

AYUMU: Don’t suddenly drag me into this.

AYUMU: Plus, I’d prefer being an older brother.

GAKU: What kinda conversation is this?!

RUKA: Alright, everyone~! It’s good that you’re getting along but, the conversation’s going nowhere.

RUKA: Let’s get started with the real deal then~ Today is VazzRaji: ROCK DOWN Chapter’s beginning so~

RUKA: We gotta have a talk of course! Here’s the theme~

(Ruka pulls out a signboard and shows it to everyone)

RUKA: “Please tell us all the nicknames you’ve had until today~!”

[05:51]

  AYUMU: Nicknames, huh…

HARUTO: Do we just have to write it on the sketchbooks given to us before recording?

RUKA: Yep, that’s it~! But, since the listeners can’t see, you have to read it aloud.

RUKA: Then, everyone will go wild with responding over it~

AYUMU: I see…

AYUMU: To be honest, I don’t think I have a nickname that’s really interesting enough for everyone to talk about.

SHO: Actually, this was the same topic that VAZZY had.

SHO: They had someone there that didn’t have a nickname, too, so it’s going to be okay ♪

SHO: That in itself would make for a good talk.

REIJI: Sho didn’t say any names but, I can only think of one guy who doesn’t have a nickname (in VAZZY)!

GAKU: (chuckles)

RUKA: Alright, the time limit is one minute so write all you can~!

RUKA: After that, everyone will show theirs on the count of three, got it~?

RUKA: Alright, start!

(everyone gets flustered as they begin to write)

GAKU: That was sudden…

REIJI: Oh, for real?!

(everyone starts writing)

HARUTO: (muttering) There’s that… and that, too…

AYUMU: (muttering) Oh, there was that as well…

SHO: Alrighty ♪

HARUTO: That was fast…!

SHO: I had a lot of nicknames that I got from when I was performing overseas so it was all written in katakana.

REIJI: Damn…! Isn’t one minute too short?!

REIJI: Ah, there’s still—Uh…

RUKA: I started the countdown myself but this is bad…!

RUKA: Um, there’s that… and that… ah, and that, too…!

GAKU: I’m done.

AYUMU: Me, too.

AYUMU: Mine’s really normal so, I’m counting on everyone to please expand the talk.

GAKU: That’s kinda gallant of you to say.

GAKU: It’s gonna be okay~ There’s six of us so even if we talk about the weather, we can talk about it for 30 minutes.

AYUMU: I see. Thank you.

RUKA: How many more seconds left? 10 seconds?!

REIJI: Alright, I’m done!

RUKA: AH!

(bell dings)

SHO: Alright, time’s up~

RUKA: (panting) That was bad for my heart…

GAKU: Ruu has a lot of nicknames after all. You get a new nickname every time you go to a theatre.

AYUMU: That’s amazing.

RUKA: Well, being in the theatre is kinda like being in a school club.

AYUMU: Is that so…?

AYUMU: Though, it’s true that it did kind of feel like that during our KisoSekai performance.

AYUMU: It was fun.

GAKU: I think Ayumu would do well in a play, too!

SHO: Now then, now then~ Shall we announce what we wrote?

RUKA: Everyone, here we go! 1, 2, 3, go~!

(they all show their sketchbooks to each other)

ROCK DOWN: Woah…!

[08:33]

  SHO: Should I read mine first?

SHO: Let’s see…

SHO: “Oono, Shoui, Snow, Ninja” These were nicknames that I got during my overseas violin recitals.

SHO: I don’t have much nicknames here in Japan. I’m usually just called ‘Sho’ here.

HARUTO: This is my first time hearing that Sho was a ninja…!

SHO: Of course I’m not ♪ Surprisingly, there are still a lot of foreigners who think that Japanese people equal ninja.

SHO: It wasn’t said to me specifically but, I’ve heard some Japanese people being given the nicknames “geisha” and even a kaijuu’s name.

HARUTO: I see.

AYUMU: Apparently, there are a lot of foreigners who find pronouncing Japanese names difficult.

SHO: Exactly. In my case, since my name is ‘Sho’ they felt that it sounded a bit short.

SHO: Though, there were a lot who just called me by my name.

REIJI: Here, here~! What does ‘Snow’ mean then? Or is it directly just that?

SHO: It is. Apparently, it was because of my appearance.

RUKA: It’s true! Sho-kun’s very pale~ You’re also thin and look frail so ‘Snow’ fits you perfectly~!

SHO: Though, I may not be frail as you imagine. That’s all for my nicknames ♪

SHO: Next one is Haruto. Go ahead~

HARUTO: Got it.

HARUTO: “Haru, Kujikawa Bomb, Warrior #2” Lately, I’ve been called “Sunshine Kujikawa” too.

HARUTO: Though, I’m happy that my nicknames have increased thanks to ROCK DOWN’s activities.

RUKA: Aside from the first ‘Haru’, the others sound so intense and powerful!

RUKA: Yep~ It’s proof that Haru-kun’s doing so well in ROCK DOWN!

REIJI: Ruka~ I really admire that positive thinking of yours sometimes.

REIJI: Rather than calling it a nickname, isn’t it more appropriate to call it some weird parts of Haruto?

HARUTO: (with an energetic voice) Let’s do this!

REIJI: Shut up!

SHO: Even though I’ve known Haruto the longest, there are still times when I’m surprised every time I see a new side of him.

SHO: That’s why every day feels so fresh~

SHO: Seeing him play along every now and then makes me happy as a leader ♪

AYUMU: I won’t deny that he’s been playing along. It might mean that… he’s becoming more amazing.

REIJI: Ayumu~ I’ll share my awesomeness with you so why don’t you release your awesome self~?

AYUMU: You’re right… There are times when I think that.

REIJI: Aren’t you… being too soft today?

AYUMU: Am I? (sighs) Maybe I am.

AYUMU: I might unexpectedly like this kind of calm talks.

RUKA: I’m glad that Ayumu-kun’s enjoying VazzRadio~!

RUKA: Alright~ Up next is Reiji-kun! Release your dark past~!

REIJI: Don’t just decide whether someone’s nickname is dark or not!

GAKU: But, isn’t there something awesome written there~?

REIJI: Well, I won’t deny that! I’ll explain it later so I’ll read it for now.

REIJI: Alright…

REIJI: “Amahane, Tenshi, Amaji, Reijii, Autto, Amahacchi, Tenbane, Host, Number 1, Pindon” Guess that’s about it.

REIJI: Alright, feel free to react!

GAKU: You’re kinda chill about this.

GAKU: Man~ I really like your professional attitude where you face anything head-on without trying to hide anything.

REIJI: Being able to read the atmosphere stops people from making fun of you in this industry.

RUKA: See~? Your professionalism is something else~  

RUKA: Okay, can we ask you to explain now~?

REIJI: Roger.

REIJI: Well, “Amahane” is another way of reading my last name.

REIJI: “Tenshi” is, y’know? Take the “ten” character from “Amaha” and combine it with the “tsukasa” character in “Reiji”. That’s how it’s read.

REIJI: Then “Amaji” is really just another way to read my combined name.

REIJI: “Reijii” is just a longer way of pronouncing my name. Then “Autto” is from “outrage”. For some reason, only the first part remained. (2)

REIJI: It was just a nickname from when I was a teenager but, I wasn’t really that wild, y’know?!

SHO: Really? I feel like I’ve heard a lot about Reiji’s naughtiness even before I joined the agency.

REIJI: Ah… For real…?

SHO: For real~

AYUMU: By the way, that was around the time he met me.

GAKU: I see now. “Outrageous” Reiji and the serious Ayumu.

GAKU: No wonder you’re natural enemies.

REIJI: Wait a sec! Like I said, I wasn’t that naughty!

RUKA: Reiji’s fans from long ago might be laughing at that sarcastically now, huh~?

RUKA: Reiji-kun, Reiji-kun, continue explaining~

REIJI: (groans) You all better back me up after this.

REIJI: What’s left? Well, “Amahacchi” is self-explanatory.

REIJI: “Tenbane” is part of the ‘other reading’ series.

REIJI: “Host, Number 1, and Pindon” are also easy to understand.

REIJI: I was told that I act like a host sometimes so they gave me that nickname.

AYUMU: What’s “Pindon”…?

REIJI: It’s that really classy rosé champagne brand, “Dom Perignon”. It’s a pink champagne so “pink” plus “don”. Pindon.

REIJI: It’s a really expensive champagne that’s drunk at host clubs so I was given the image that I drink a lot of classy wines.

AYUMU: I see.

AYUMU: “You’re a man who splurges on classy wines,” is what it means, huh?

REIJI: I’ll tell you this, okay? It’s only an image and a misunderstanding, got it?

REIJI: I’m the type who’s actually pretty common and uses stuff until I can’t use them anymore.

ROCK DOWN: We know.

SHO: Reiji has his own perverse side but he really loves taking care of people after all~

HARUTO: He’s a kind senpai who taught me a lot, isn’t he?

GAKU: You’re a very doting man after all, huh?

REIJI: … Hearing it all from you directly is kinda annoying…

RUKA: Then, let’s go to Ayumu-kun next~

[14:56]

  GAKU: We’re ready to expand the talk for you.

RUKA: Perfectly ready~!

AYUMU: You make my heart feel at ease. Thank you.

AYUMU: Mine is, “TachiHana, TachiAyu, Ayumin, Warrior No. 1” that’s all. (3)

HARUTO: I thought that they would be all normal but it seems like there’s something more to them.

RUKA: I don’t think you have the right to be saying that, Haru-kun~

GAKU: Well, ‘Warrior No. 1’ is exclusive to us so, putting that aside for now, TachiHana, TachiAyu, and Ayumin all seem to come from your name but—

GAKU: ‘Ayumin’ is kind of a cute nickname.

REIJI: Ah… (laughs)

AYUMU: Mr. Outrage here gave me that nickname.

AYUMU: He harassed me when I was feeling so nauseous from nervousness during filming one time…!

RUKA: He seems to remember it quite well~

REIJI: Ah… That was— (chuckles) Y’know? I was trying to calm your nerves!

GAKU: And so, you two became natural enemies.

HARUTO: My condolences!

SHO: Though, I can totally imagine it.

RUKA: Bullying is bad, Reiji-kun~

REIJI: It was in the past, okay?! It’s all in the past!

REIJI: Plus, I wasn’t planning on bullying him! Really, I’m telling the truth!

AYUMU: Well… if you told me that now… I might believe you.

HARUTO: You’re barely safe. Isn’t that great, Reiji-san?

REIJI: Shut it!

SHO: Back then it was difficult for the both of you but, ever since becoming a part of ROCK DOWN, your misunderstandings have all gone away~

SHO: (chuckles) Isn’t that great?

GAKU: Going off-topic, here are my nicknames. Ta-da.

(Gaku shows his sketchbook)

GAKU: “Gakkun, Daikoku, Gakunosuke, Kuro, Daigaku, Okan” That’s about it, I guess. (4)

RUKA: Oh~! I feel like I’ve seen most of those!

SHO: Out of all the nicknames where they’re all a variation of ‘Oguro Gaku’, “Okan” stands out the most.

GAKU: Right? Plus, I feel like I hear that all the time here and there.

GAKU: Am I really motherly?

AYUMU: I guess I can equate it to you being tolerant.

HARUTO: Though there are times when you really are like a mom.

GAKU: What’s with that~?

HARUTO: You don’t mind us being all wild outside and you always tell us, “Come on now, you boys, it’s time to go~” and stuff like that.

AYUMU: True.

GAKU: Your image of me is… quite something…

SHO: It means that you’re very reliable.

[17:22]

  RUKA: Alright, I’m last~

RUKA: “Rukacchi, Ruu-Ruu, Nacchan, Nadumi Luke, Run-Run, Runba, Taruzumi, Borude no Mouchan, Nabebugyou, Kujaku, Sanba, Hikaru, Hakusai, Ruu-nyan, Ruu Nadumi, Shinkansen, Taraba, Imasokari, Mikhail, VazzRu, Ruemon, Pasta, Guinomi, Hachiko, Yoshitsune” were all I could write before time ran out~!

RUKA: I couldn’t write everything down and I think there are some I forgot.

REIJI: No… Isn’t that too much?

HARUTO: What an amazing amount of nicknames…!

HARUTO: Please share some with me!

AYUMU: I want one or two as well…

GAKU: That’s a new kind of joke… (chuckles nervously)

GAKU: Ruu loves nicknames, huh.

RUKA: Yup, yup~ Doesn’t a nickname convey a sense of familiarity so, isn’t it good~?

SHO: True. You do say so during events, too. “You can call me anything you like,” you said.

RUKA: Exactly! Calling me whatever is totally okay~

RUKA: Like, “A Ruka just for you~” or something.

RUKA: I seriously think that.

RUKA: I’m a stage actor after all. When I’m on stage, I live as many people and have lived many kinds of lives but, if I’m given a nickname for acting as that person, I feel like he really did live, you know?

RUKA: Kinda like a title, see~? I’m happy whenever they increase! I’m proud of it.

REIJI: The reason’s quite deeper than I thought it’d be. You’re kinda an unfair guy, huh.

REIJI: You took the most satisfying part.

HARUTO: Looks like his fighting spirit wasn’t to be taken lightly.

HARUTO: That way of thinking has been a good lesson for me.

AYUMU: Ruka’s amazing…

RUKA: (laughs) Thank you~

SHO: I’m so glad that we could talk a lot about your nicknames, Ruka.

SHO: It has been fun but we’ve run out of time.

RUKA: Thank you for sticking with us until the end, listeners~ Did this make you more interested in ROCK DOWN, I wonder~?

AYUMU: Did I… appeal well to you…?

HARUTO: Ayumu-san managed to show his soft side with his cool exterior so I think it went okay.

GAKU: Oh, that’s nice phrasing there, Haruto! It’s okay, Ayumu. I think it went well, too!

AYUMU: I see. I’m glad.

AYUMU: Radio is fun, huh? Since they can’t see us, we can relax and move ahead without being too nervous.

AYUMU: It might be fitting for me.

REIJI: Sho and Ruka’s great at making the conversation move, too.

HARUTO: True. Thank you, Sho. And Ruka-san, too.

SHO: Oh my, I got praised~ I’m thankful for the wonderful time, too.

RUKA: Please look forward to the next VazzRaji, too! But, we have to close this one properly first.

RUKA: We shall part for today in order to meet again~!

SHO: Let’s meet at the next VazzRaji, okay?

RUKA: Alright, then!

ROCK DOWN: Thank you very much!

==END==

Translator’s Notes:

 (1) A traditional chabudai (tea table) typically looks like this:

Hence the characters’ reactions XD

(2) Amaha Reiji is written like this in kanji: [天羽 玲司]

His nicknames are:

Amahane: [天] can be read as [ten/ame/ama/amatsu] and [羽] can be read as [bane/hane/ha/wa/u] hence when you combine them, it can be read as“Amahane” instead of the usual “Amaha”.

Tenshi: [天] can be read as [ten] (as mentioned above) and [司] can be read as [tsukasa/tsukasadoru/shi] thus, “Tenshi”.

Amaji: [Amaha] + [Reiji] = Amaji

Autto: “outrage” in Japanese is written as [アウトレイジ/autoreiji] so, “autto”.

Tenbane: Going with the ‘other reading’ series like Reiji said, [天/ten] + [羽/bane] = “Tenbane”

(3) Nothing really needs to be explained since TachiAyu, Ayumin, and Warrior No. 1 are self-explanatory but, Tachihana might need some explaining ^^

Ayumu’s name in kanji is: [立花 歩] When together, [立花] is normally read as “Tachibana” but the [花] part can be read as [hana] as well hence, Tachihana.

(4) Oguro Gaku in kanji is: [大黒 岳]

His nicknames are:

Daikoku: [大] can be read as [oo/ookii/ooini/dai/tai] and [黒] can be read as [kuro/koku] hence “Daikoku”.

Daigaku: [大/dai] + [岳/gaku] = Daigaku

Okan: [御母] is simply another way to say ‘mother’ XD

The Fan Sign

AU - Fanboys!AU Genre - Fluff/Comedy Warnings - None Word Count - 1619

Summary - In which Hakyeon decides to drag along Taekwoon to a fan meeting and his bias definitely notices him.

Find all parts here

"What am I even doing here?" Taekwoon asked as Hakyeon clicked away with his DSLR camera to check the angles and lighting.

"You are being a supportive friend" Hakyeon told him.

"I don't see why I need to attend the fan meet. You're the fansite master. You go scream yourself hoarse over 6Keys" he grumbled.

"You do realize that I have a photo of you from three years ago when they held their first fan meet and only thirty people turned up so you got to stand next to Minah right?" Hakyeon asked with an angelic smile. "So stop lying. I know you wanted to be here."

"Fine. I was the one who introduced you to 6Keys but whatever" Taekwoon grumbled.

"They’re here!" Hakyeon said excitedly as a black van pulled up to the parking lot.

The fans began to scream as Minah stepped out. The intensity had surprised her and she stumbled backwards a little, bumping into Haneul. Taekwoon smiled to himself at her cute behavior. Hakyeon giggled too because the vocalist x rapper otp was famous.

"It's just the two of them?" Taekwoon asked in surprise.

"Yeah. Bora and Haru are in another fansign while Ara and Miya are filming a drama" Hakyeon explained.

"How are you here and not in Bora's fan meeting?" Taekwoon teased.

"I have no idea what you are saying" Hakyeon replied with a blush. For a long time, Haneul had been Hakyeon’s bias with him being noticed by her as a regular attendee as well. But of late, Taekwoon had noticed signs of bias wrecking. Of course Hakyeon would never admit it. Taekwoon grinned smugly because his bias was Minah and he had stayed loyal.

"Do you think we will get picked for the sign event?" Hakyeon asked him. Taekwoon shrugged. The girls were on stage and ready to start.

"Hello everyone, I am 6Keys leader and rapper Haneul!" Haneul started, bowing as the crowd cheered. Taekwoon smirked at how smitten Hakyeon looked.

"Hello everyone, I am 6Keys main vocal Minah!" Minah said, waving to the fans. She did a small bow as well before Haneul pulled her into making a heart. It looked cuter today to Taekwoon who hadn't taken his eyes off Minah.

"Don't die by her charms Taekwoon!" Hakyeon said dramatically.

"Pfft. That's you not me" Taekwoon protested while there was mental screaming going on in his head.

Hakyeon got busy as the girls continued the introduction. Haneul got Minah to rap her parts from their new song and the organizers made them play a game of dumb charades. While Minah managed to guess everything Haneul acted out, Haneul failed to guess two out of six and got a bop from the toy hammer as punishment. She went down dramatically, entertaining the crowd.

"Cha Hakyeon and Jung Taekwoon?" someone called out.

"That's us" Taekwoon said, pulling Hakyeon along.

"Ah Hakyeon! Long time no see. I thought it was you!" the person who had called out to them said.

"Nice to see you too! Taekwoon, this is Song Hwanhee. She organizes the fan meets" Hakyeon said introducing him. Taekwoon bowed in greeting, not surprised that the organizers had recognized Hakyeon too.

"The good news is that you both were chosen for the sign. I need to verify your ids and take you to the line" Hwanhee told them. Hakyeon mini cheered before holding out his driver’s license. Taekwoon used his college id since he hadn't passed his driving test yet. Hwanhee gave them directions, signaling the guards to let them through.

"I'm so excited" Hakyeon said, pulling out two albums from his bag. Taekwoon nodded in agreement as he took a copy.

"Whoa. They look prettier up close. The pastel shades really suit them" Hakyeon thought out loud. The fan in front of him agreed vocally so the two of them got talking while the stage was being set up.

Taekwoon zoned out, choosing to look at Minah who was waving to a baby in the front line. He couldn't help but smile at the interaction. He had always believed that Minah was the best with children. Of course Haneul was the more strict mother type but Minah was the fun mother. The type who would teach her children good behavior along with spoiling them. Why didn't 6Keys have it's own Hello Baby season yet?

And that wasn't the only thing Minah was good at. She was silent but wise and good at problem solving. Her interaction with the maknae Miya were always the funniest. She was a supportive friend and member to the rest. And did he even need to talk about the singing? Her high notes were the highlights of any 6Keys song. The agency should really give her a solo album contract, he added with a frown at the pavement.

He looked up at the stage again only to see Minah and Haneul looking in his direction. He immediately averted his eyes, missing the look Haneul had given and the way Minah had blushed. They took their places at the table which had markers set up along with flower crowns that the girls immediately put on their head, posing for pictures.

"Gaaaah. I wish I was on the front line. I could have taken those photos" Hakyeon lamented.

"You can ask them for a picture in person in ten minutes" Taekwoon pointed out. They were twelfth or so in line and they would be on stage very soon. Taekwoon could feel his ears grow warm. Why was this suddenly so embarrassing?

"Ah, it's Haneul first and then Minah" Hakyeon pointed out. Haneul was sitting to the left and Minah to the right and the fans would enter from the left entrance, meeting Haneul first. Taekwoon thanked the gods for that.

Hakyeon kept moving, obviously excited to meet the two. He had frowned when he had realized that he had been too broke to buy them gifts for the fansign but he had been happy about attending nonetheless. The line moved at a decent stage and pretty soon it was their turn. Hakyeon went up, dragging Taekwoon along.

"Hello!" Haneul greeted them. "Hakyeon right?" she asked Hakyeon who broke into the widest smile Taekwoon had ever seen.

"I recognized you from the earlier events! Thank you for all the nice pictures! You made me look really pretty" she said with a smile. "Oh look. We're matching today!"

"Isn't pink your favorite?" he asked her. Haneul nodded and the manager had to remind her to actually take his CD and sign it.

"I hop you enjoy the fan sign! It was really nice meeting you again!" Haneul said while writing down a message for Hakyeon as well as the sign. Hakyeon beamed radiantly and might have skipped ahead to greet Minah happily though he would later deny it.

"Hello! What's your name?" Haneul asked as she leaned forward to talk to Taekwoon.

"Jung Taekwoon. I've been a fan since the beginning" he added shyly.

"Thank you for supporting 6Keys! Taekwoon can I ask you a question?" Haneul asked mischievously.

"Yes?" he asked, unsure of what she wanted to say.

"You're Minah biased aren't you? You're totally her fan!" she pointed out. Taekwoon blinked, caught in the act and unsure of what to say. How had Haneul known?

"Hakyeon! Please back me up here! Taekwoon totally likes Minah right?" Haneul asked, leaning towards Minah and interrupting their conversation about Minah’s pet dog Kero.

"How did you know?" Hakyeon asked surprised while Minah blinked as well.

"I like all of 6Keys" Taekwoon answered weakly.

"Too late. You hesitated!" Haneul sang as she signed his album. "Minah when he comes over, please give him a heart and draw loads of cute things in the album!"

Minah protested indignantly while Taekwoon just wanted the stage to split open so he could fall through and die of shame. Haneul just high fived Hakyeon making the fans wonder what was happening on stage. The manager had to remind them not to take too long as other fans were waiting so Haneul just shot Taekwoon an angel look and he frowned before moving to Minah.

"I am so sorry about Haneul" Minah apologized.

"That's okay" Taekwoon said. He was blushing as he handed over the album to Minah who looked shy as well.

"I think its because she saw you looking when I was talking to the baby in the front row. She just likes teasing people" Minah laughed.

"I thought it was kind of cute" Taekwoon said before he could stop himself. Minah smiled in reply and he felt extremely warm and happy seeing it.

"Thank you for coming to the fansign" she said. Minah attempted to make a heart with her hands, managing an awkward shape. The fans cheered when they saw it and Taekwoon covered his face, pulling his cap further down to cover his face.

"Taekwoon si, please keep supporting us!" Minah said with a small smile. He nodded taking the album and rushing off stage before he could be escorted off.

"Is your heart still beating?" Hakyeon asked receiving a glare from Taekwoon. He groaned, jumping up and down to work off his embarrassment. He ultimately gave in and Hakyeon hugged him out of pity, smiling for his friend.

"I was going to drag you to the Hi Touch event next week but I don't think you will survive it now" Hakyeon said cheekily.

From the stage, Haneul looked over to the side to see Hakyeon pat Taekwoon’s back as he regained his composure. She nudged Minah to make her look. Minah did so and caught Taekwoon’s eye again making him groan and look away again, making Hakyeon and Haneul laugh.
