Woojin being fond and exasperated but unfazed by and even proud of Gunwoo’s “heart of a boxer.”

These two really. Their relationship is truly something to die for. Woojin unconditionally supporting Gunwoo’s decision. That soft, knowing smile, knowing that Gunwoo did not and would not betray his ideals. Knowing they deserve to have that money after everything they went through but still being fond and unsurprised as Gunwoo turned it down.

Recall, this is the same guy who risked his life for money inside a safe because there were “billions on the line.”

These two I swear.

Everyone go watch Bloodhounds! You won’t be disappointed.

-

It was around 1910s, when the Japanese took control of Korea. The suppression against Koreans was bad. I witness my people get bruttaly treated by the foreignmen in our own land. My family, I lost my own immediate family in just a month after they took hold of our country. I decided to find a way to escape this hell. Boarded a trading ship from China, making sure no one can trace me. I managed to do so, landing me to a foreign country I have never known.

I managed to escape Korea and arrived in the Philippines through a ship. I couldn't speak their language, but I can do a few English or so. I couldn't make any more suspicion, so I decided to stay low, but in tough times, one shall do anything to survive.

One day, I was starving. I had no money, nor any means of getting any, so I learned to steal. A few days, I managed to get food without getting caught, but that didn't last long as an American soldier saw me stealing bread at a local shop. They chased me around town, and I tried to run for my life.

That is when I met Stephen Diaz, a soap store owner. He hid me in his shop until the soldiers eventually gave up in looking for me.

"You can stay here. I'll make sure you're part of a family from now on."

Diaz was 3 years older than I am. He treated me like a younger brother and kept me in like what he promised, like a part of a family. Diaz, too, is alone. His family died under the Spanish Regime and making soap and selling them is his primary way to survive. Throughout those years of living in his shop, we became business partners. Eventually, we don't just sell soaps anymore. I thought him how to make herbal tea. We bought ceramics from chinese merchants we can use to brew them. We started selling tea leaves and herbs.

Although, business wasn't that great. Our sales didn't go well and eventually we get our feet deep in debt. We thought of everything we can do, but we had to close the shop.

It was devastating to see Diaz, my best friend and brother, working harder in other ways just to support us both, while I couldn't do anything. I can't find a job or people will suspect me for being here illegally. All I can do for Diaz is make him tea every night.

One night, I was harvesting herbs from our backyard. I saw a gleaming light a few bushes away from I am. Upon exploring, there I saw a floating white crystal. I felt it calling onto me. I hear it promising me things that can help us get back to our feet.

"I promise you a way to be more prosperous. A power to help those in need, and also to help you."

I was blinded by it, but I know how truthful its words are, I just don't know why. I came closer, and then I held it in my palm, and then that was the day I was bestown the power I hold now. Power coursed through my veins. Hunger and pain disappeared. I was stonger, less stress. I just know I felt better.

I took the crystal inside and kept it where we usually put our income every single day. The next day, I decided to open the shop once more, giving it one last chance.

Diaz and I were surprised with what's going on. Soaps advertised to bring your youthful skin back, started to actually turn people younger the longer they use it. Teas that promises strength started to make people bigger, healthier. We are in awe.

People started coming in, amazed with our miracle. Everyone were celebrating, except for one person, Diaz.

Diaz was skeptical with the promise of the crystal. He said there's a big possibility that the crystal was offered by an Engkanto, or a Mambabarang, who purposely didn't say that there's a catch with this power. That night, we argued. He begged me to throw the crystal away, but I can't just do that. All I want was to help Diaz, or maybe I was too greedy with the power I now have.

Diaz and I pulled against the cystal on each end, accidentally splitting it in half. I felt my power lessen, and saw the other half Diaz was holding turn black.

Right that moment, we noticed light coming out from the shop and saw people with torches and pitchforks, screaming at us, calling us witches and monsters. People started to abuse our store products and saw what can happen when they overuse it, and they blamed us for what happened to those people.

They started storming in the shop. Diaz was caught by the people.

"THEO!" He screamed as he reach his hand to me, "Help me!"

But before I know it, the crystal in my hand generated a big wave of force, pushing everyone outside, incluing Diaz, and with my last scream, everyone disappeared.

It was quiet. What used to be night sky, now sunlight peaks throught the window. I can hear chirping of the birds oustide. That is when I realized, the whole shop was transported to a different place.

I was alone. Whatever happened to Diaz, I have no clue. All I have was his shop, and the crystal.

From then point on, I built the shop on my own, using the powers bestown to me, fulfilling what duties the crystal gave me, helping others and myself.

Diaz, if only I were able to save you. My deepest regrets and apologies. I'll find you soon.

@intergalacticxmisfits​​   /   what… was i NOT supposed to take advantage of the opportunity?  ❜ (   hyeongju & minjae   )

"  yes of course you’re not supposed.  "  he said letting out a soft sigh rubbing his temple easing away the migraine that this situation had caused him to have he’d never expect to himself in this sort of situation preferring to primarily stay up in his studio working on music when he obviously isn’t promoting with his group mates or training that is in short he lived a rather peaceful existence living a rather mundane life at least one for someone that was currently working in his line of work that is. he rarely ventured outside of his comfort zone , but the one time he decided to be adventurous and go with minjae to explore some abandoned building at the edge of town it all seemed to blow up in his face then again in hindsight he was fully aware to not really go willing along with the other male’s plans as they usually don’t end well at least in his past experience with the other that is so he was almost expecting for this sort of thing to happened to the both of them really so he wouldn’t be so surprised in this situation. one thing led to another when they were both exploring this abandoned building everything seemed to be going fine as they explored all through out the rooms finding the odd clutter on the floor. until they chanced upon a rather odd looking markings in one of them out of the way rooms then it happened out of the blue which was where they found themselves face to face with a rather angry alien.

Heroes

Group: Xdinary Heroes Word Count: 3.2k Warnings: None About: "A long time ago there were six men in a house. At the top of the house lived a young man who was very, very cruel...”

Cast

Finally, it had arrived! At the top of the house, Lee Jooyeon ran into his bedroom, the door flying shut behind him. In his hands he clutched his very own copy of his favourite band’s brand new album, ‘Heroes’. He’d barely managed to keep himself ignorant to the contents of the album, every day since its release having to fight with himself to not listen to a digital copy on his computer. But at long last, the day had come that Jooyeon could indulge himself in brand new music, and he had no doubts that it wouldn’t be full of amazing songs after amazing songs. Jooyeon slowly unpackaged the album, careful not to drop it in his excitement, and took the disk from its case. It was pastel pink, and was printed with the band’s logo, an image not unfamiliar to Jooyeon. He placed it into his CD player. Jooyeon always thought it best to listen to new music for the first time through headphones at full volume, that way the ‘essence’ of the music could really be captured. He slipped his headset over his head and hit play. As the first song began, Jooyeon couldn’t help but move to the music. Not usually one for dancing, this meant that all he could really do was bounce in place, mimicking the guitar chords in the air. As the song played on, his movements got bigger, matching his excitement and his enjoyment. 

Before Jooyeon knew it, he was jumping and dancing around as much as he could whilst still bound to his CD player by the headset wire. But the more he moved, the more it threatened to fall out – and it did. The cord pulled with the force of Jooyeon’s movements and yanked the CD player along with it, but the state of the player was saved by the aux plug slipping from the input. With his music now blaring and his restraint gone, Jooyeon was free to dance and jump around as much as he wanted. Throwing his headphones to the corner of his room, his first stop was the mirror, to watch himself headbang and play the air guitar. 

Directly underneath Jooyeon’s bedroom was a completely different atmosphere. Han Hyeongjun had been working on modelling his new city kit. His room was silent, and focus and patience were all he had in mind. He’d gotten started on it earlier in the week and it was already threatening to take up all of the space in his bedroom, but Hyeongjun didn’t care. It was a limited edition set and the size and time it takes to build is worth it for the feeling of accomplishment he knew would come with finishing it. He wanted to spend the entirety of the day working on it, not expecting the disruptions about to come from the storey above.

As soon as the aux cord slipped out of the jack, the sound spread around the house. The sudden noise made Hyeongjun jump, dropping the figurine of a man he held so carefully in a pair of tweezers. His eyes darted to the ceiling above, as though he could see Jooyeon jumping right over his head. Hyeongjun shook his head, shook away the distraction and tried to continue. He picked up the figurine again with his tool and began to place it in its assigned position. Slowly, his hand edged towards the space on the pavement, about to unite the man with the rest of his family but he was disrupted again when Jooyeon jumped from his bed to the floor and made the house shake. Hyeongjun’s figure fell from his grip again, along with a few other figurines already placed in their spots. United with his family, the man was, but not as Hyeongjun had hoped. He looked up at the ceiling again, cursing Jooyeon with his eyes. The shake had made a car piece fall from Hyeongjun’s desk and go rolling around his room. Hyeongjun hopped out of his seat to chase the runaway car, stopping it with his foot and bending down to pick it up. Not one for confrontation, Hyeongjun silently hoped that Jooyeon would calm down soon, so that Hyeongjun could continue on with his modelling. 

Next door to Hyeongjun, another house resident’s afternoon was disturbed by Jooyeon’s inconsiderate behaviour. The oldest in the house, Goo Gunil had been napping, peaceful and unbothered. The sudden guitar chord ringing around the house when the aux fell from the input had jolted Gunil from his sleep and he was not happy about it. Having to quickly come to his senses, he soon suspected Jooyeon as the noisy culprit. Gunil looked around his room for any means to express his disapproval of the volume of Jooyeon’s music. Gunil spotted a plunger. With no time to question why such an item was in his room in the first place, Gunil grabbed it with intentions of using it to bang on the ceiling. However, standing at only 169 centimetres tall, Gunil knew that he would need some sort of assistance in reaching the ceiling to make his point. 

A little bit of interior redecorating is what it took for Gunil to be able to reach. He pushed the little sofa he had out to the centre of his room and was using it as leverage to jump and reach the ceiling with the plunger. Hitting on the ceiling was proving useless as Jooyeon’s music was too loud, Gunil wasn’t hitting hard enough, or the troublemaker Jooyeon was just outright ignoring the noise. Gunil couldn’t tell which but he had an inkling it was the latter. Putting all of his strength into one last jump, Gunil flung the plunger at the ceiling but it was to no avail. The suction cup end stuck to the ceiling and Gunil came back down from his jump with just a wooden stick. He sighed and shook his head. If he wanted Jooyeon to quiet down a little bit he would have to tell him face to face. 

Gunil took himself up the stairs to Jooyeon’s attic bedroom, the album getting even louder as he approached. Gunil winced at the noise, wondering how someone could actually enjoy music so loud. As he pounded on Jooyeon’s door, he wondered if he’d even hear it. Inside the room, Jooyeon, purposely ignoring the banging that had come from below but not rude enough to ignore the banging on his bedroom door, jumped down from his bed as the song died down and the next one started up. He played a game with himself to guess who was at his door, speculating it would be either his friend Seungmin, or one of the oldest boys. Jooyeon pulled open his bedroom door, revealing Gunil with an unimpressed look on his face. The older boy raised his eyebrow at Jooyeon, a gesture with obvious meaning. Jooyeon shrugged his shoulders and smiled cheekily, beginning to shut his door in Gunil’s face. “Don’t you dare,” Gunil began, stopping Jooyeon with his hand, “Turn it down, Jooyeon.” Jooyeon whined in response, “But I’m enjoying myself.”

The younger boy pouted, hoping he could get Gunil to leave him if he showed some of his cutes. Gunil shook his head, unwavering. He continued to look at Jooyeon with a serious expression, Gunil was usually lenient and let the youngsters in the house do what they wanted, but this situation activated his inner responsibility. He knew that others in the house like Hyeongjun and Jungsu might appreciate a bit more quiet, and took it upon himself to achieve that for them. “Fight me for it,” Jooyeon stepped back, pointing to the pillows on his bed, “If you win I’ll turn it down. Deal?” Gunil knew there would be no way to win this debate other than to take part in Jooyeon’s pillow fight. Jooyeon led Gunil into his room, and allowed the older boy to take his pillow of choice. Jooyeon smirked, he had no intentions of going easy, he was going to fight to win. 

On the ground floor of the house, sneaking around underneath the guise of the ruckus upstairs, Kwak Jiseok crept around the kitchen, followed by another boy, Seungmin. Somehow, Jiseok had managed to convince the usually well behaved Oh Seungmin to take part in his antics. Their shared goal was the fridge. Inside was the cake Hyeongjun had baked in the morning as a surprise for Jungsu. The pair wanted to taste it, but waiting until after dinner this evening was proving to be too much for them. Jiseok had decided that now was the perfect time to commit the crime of stealing the cake, he knew that Hyeongjun had gone upstairs to work on his modelling, Jooyeon was occupied with his album (although Jiseok would’ve loved to have his best friend partake in the tasting of the cake), Gunil was supposedly taking a nap, and Jungsu didn’t even know there was a cake. 

Jiseok and Seungmin had planned their crime not long before putting it into action. Jiseok would sneak the cake from the box and Seungmin would grab utensils to cut and taste it with. How much the two would eat between them was to be determined by the taste of the cake itself, and their levels of self-control.

Jiseok motioned for Seungmin to enter the kitchen past him. One could say he was taking this a little bit too seriously, but there’s no fun in simply taking a cake and eating it. Jiseok began tiptoeing extravagantly through the kitchen like a cartoon burglar, while Seungmin slid open the utensil drawer. “Do we need a plate?” Seungmin whispered, turning and spotting Jiseok bouncing around on his tiptoes, “Gaon, what are you doing?” Jiseok laughed then stopped abruptly, “This is serious, okay? Yes, we do need a plate.” Jiseok continued onwards towards the fridge, pulling it open. “Target located,” Seungmin joined Jiseok by the fridge, staring at the box Hyeongjun had put it in. Somehow it had been successfully disguised as a box of leftovers. The pair shared a look, before reaching into the fridge to pull the box out. Both of them were eager to see the cake, as Hyeongjun had baked it that morning, long before Jiseok had woken up and while Seungmin was busy elsewhere.

Seungmin and Jiseok placed the cake in the middle of the table, and the latter pulled the lid off of the box. The cake was covered with white icing and cream, topped with fresh blueberries and strawberry sauce. Seeing the dessert in its perfect condition instantly made Seungmin feel bad. He began to protest, reaching for the box lid, claiming that they should put it back. He was close with Jungsu and knew that Jungsu would never do something like this if he knew there was a surprise cake for one of the other boys. Jiseok shook his head and placed the cake lid out of Seungmin’s reach. Now that he’d seen how delicious the cake looked, he knew he wouldn’t be able to wait any longer to taste it. Jiseok ordered Seungmin to pass him the cake slicer so he could begin on the cake, to which Seungmin obeyed despite the guilty feeling developing in his stomach. 

As Jiseok defaced the perfect cake, his eyes grew wide. The piece he cut was close to being a quarter of the entire cake. He knew that it would taste amazing and a slim slice would not quell his growing greed. Seungmin began to protest again upon seeing the size of the slice, but was quickly silenced as Jiseok lifted the slice and a stream of bright red strawberry sauce flowed from the middle of the dessert. The sweet scent of strawberry and sugar filled the room. Seungmin felt himself begin to salivate, whatever aura this cake was emitting had captivated him along with Jiseok. The slice was placed on the centre of the small plate that Seungmin had brought over from the cupboards and neither Jiseok nor Seungmin could wait to indulge themselves in this dessert that appeared to be sent down from the heavens.

Between them, Seungmin and Jiseok finished the slice, and though one boy was satisfied, Jiseok felt as though the taste he’d had wasn’t enough. The strawberry smell of the dessert still had him under its influence and it didn’t seem like he wanted to be free. Jiseok’s eyes were still locked on the cake as he reached for the cake slicer a second time to serve himself again. “Haven’t you had enough?” Seungmin watched, concerned that Jiseok was being a bit too selfish, what they’d already done was bad enough. Jiseok didn’t reply, instead he shoved another fork full of cake and strawberry sauce into his face. Seungmin watched on, bothered by Jiseok’s behaviour but seemingly unable to do anything about it. 

It wasn’t long before Jiseok had single handedly devoured almost the whole cake along with the mysteriously alluring strawberry sauce and the quantity of sugar wasn’t doing well in his small body. He quickly began to react to the sugar high, trembling and shaking as he attempted another bite of the dessert. Seungmin finally found the ability to move and hit the fork from Jiseok’s hand, not that there was much cake left to save. Finally freed from eating the cake, Jiseok flew out of his seat, bumping into the table and knocking a few things onto the floor on his way up. Jooyeon’s music from upstairs was still flowing through the house, and Jiseok��s sugar-induced newfound energy, complimented by his pride for successfully stealing the cake, was causing his body to move. He danced for joy, for excitement, to the music, and to celebrate a mission success. His mannerisms mimicked that of a small child, running circles around the kitchen, pushing the chairs out of his way, using the counters to propel himself into the air as he jumped and cheered. Seungmin watched, a concoction of horror, guilt and distress spread across his face as his eyes darted back and forth, trying to keep up with Jiseok’s movements.

Eventually, Jiseok managed to expel his energy. So tired from what his body had just endured that he just collapsed face down onto the kitchen floor. Immediately going to crouch down beside him, Seungmin frantically tried to shake him awake, calling out his name. He rolled Jiseok over onto his back and swept the pink and blue strands of hair out of his face, smacking his cheeks and shaking him more and more. In a panic, Seungmin had no idea what to do other than ask someone for help, even if it meant getting in a lot of trouble.

Completely naive to any of the endeavours going on in the various rooms of the house was Kim Jungsu, fully dressed in a costume, practising some lines in the bathroom mirror. He was an aspiring actor and he’d just landed his first real role as a pirate. He’d gone into the bathroom so that he could work on his facial expressions and recite his lines without using his script. The usually soft and sweet Jungsu felt as though he needed a lot of practise to master his role as the cool and charismatic pirate captain. He had everything he needed in the bathroom with him, his prop gun, his hook hand and a mirror for monitoring himself. Jungsu felt a little bit shy at the thought of some of the other boys seeing him rehearse which was why he’d locked himself into the bathroom, or so he thought. 

Midway through acting out one of his lines, the bathroom door flew open and in ran Seungmin, trying to explain what had happened to Jiseok. Unbothered as to whether Jungsu was in need of privacy or not. “Jiseok ate the cake and he- and then the sauce- and he fell and-” Startled but concerned by the words Jungsu managed to pick out, he tried to calm Seungmin, with the hopes of getting a clear telling of the story. Jungsu put both his hands on Seungmin’s shoulders and encouraged him to breathe slowly before talking. Listening to his older friend, Seungmin managed to slow down his speech and inform Jungsu of the stolen secret cake and the passed out Jiseok on the kitchen floor. 

Seungmin led Jungsu to the kitchen where Jiseok lay, passed out on the floor. He ordered Seungmin to bring some water to splash on Jiseok’s face, but it didn’t work. Jiseok remained on the floor unresponsive as though he was dead. Seungmin looked at Jungsu, panic in his eyes.  “We should take him to Gunil. Put him on your back,” Jungsu ordered. Seungmin whined disapproval, why should he have to be the one to carry the passed out Jiseok all the way upstairs? Jungsu didn’t hesitate to remind Seungmin that he was the one who accompanied Jiseok in stealing the cake and he was the one who allowed him to eat the majority of it. With a discontented sigh, Seungmin shuffled closer to Jiseok, trying to lift his entire weight onto his back, but the smaller boy just fell loosely back onto the floor. Seungmin tried again, this time with Jungsu helping to lift the passed out Jiseok onto Seungmin’s back. Success!

Jiseok was draped loosely onto Seungmin’s back, his head hung limply and swayed as Seungmin struggled to stand up and begin walking, legs trembling with each step as Jiseok flopped around with each of Seungmin’s movements, unevenly distributing his weight on his poor friend’s body. Jungsu did nothing to help stabilise the swaying Jiseok, just led the way as though Seungmin didn’t also live in the house and know the way to Gunil’s room. 

At the top of the stairs the three boys ran into Hyeongjun holding one of his model cars, who’d left his room after finally gathering up the courage to tell Jooyeon to be quiet. Hyeongjun usually just sat by and let the other boys play around, but this model kit was so important to him that he wanted to put his shyness aside and stand up for himself. No matter how hard he tried, the music was a huge distraction and he just couldn’t ignore it any longer. Hyeongjun informed the other boys that Gunil was upstairs with Jooyeon, believing that he had gone up there to join in with the mini party. “Disappointed but not surprised,” Hyeongjun shrugged his shoulders and looked down at the car in his hands. In a house of six men, it was a bit unreasonable to expect silence, but a bit of quiet isn’t too much… right?

The four boys made their way up to Jooyeon’s attic bedroom, Jungsu at the front and Hyeongjun at the back, holding Jiseok’s head steady as Seungmin carried him up the stairs. The inside of Jooyeon’s room was trashed, with pillow feathers and blankets strewn across the room. Gunil sat on the floor beside Jooyeon’s bed, out of breath and tired from the battle and an also tired Jooyeon laid spread out on his bed. He had lost the pillow fight and had to turn his music down, as per the deal. He turned his head as his bedroom door opened, his housemates on the other side looking all but happy. 

Jiseok began to stir, slowly being able to lift his head from Seungmin’s shoulder. As his blurry vision cleared, the music died down and the spinning disk came to a halt. The six boys stood looking at one another, now in complete silence.

the vampire hummed against his lips, liking the feeling of his hand in his hair. he walked the demon back towards the bed, pulling away only to get mingi undressed.

@serenityxbecca liked for a mingi starter !

mingi usually never lets it get this bad - && with the time off he's had from idol activities, it's been easier to manage. but he supposes he got a little lax in the last few weeks - especially since he's been spending more time with his members.

the rapper pushes his hair back, drawing in a slow breath before pulling a hoodie on - up over his head, slips on a facemask && sunglasses so there's less chance of fans recognizing him as he slips outside - wonders if he can find some club where no one will recognize him && he can hopefully find a meal.

[tintakaca]

Even though everything turned out the way I wanted, I'm not happy. What was I trying so hard to achieve ? I thought getting revenge would make me feel better.

(Seo HyeSeung)

Probably because you've been through so much. You've gotten used to the pain.

(Lee HyeongJu)

[eatsbop]

These buffoons are so fucking hilarious. They're so fucking stupid stupid stupid no word can better describe them other than stupid damn it fucking hell lmao

I'm so sorry, Hyeongju. I can't imagine the pain you had to endure watching them go back in forth "No you!" "NO YOU!" for 3 years because none of them evolved past being able to convert starch to energy lmao

X1 reaction to you spending a lot of time with another member

Request: Hi can I request the members being jealous to you spending a lot more time with another member?! Thank you in advance

Note: I'm so sorry I didn't notice it said their reaction has to be one of jealousy! I did an oopsie over there but I hope you still like the varying reactions, anon. 😟

———————✨————————

Seungwoo

I swear he doesn't mind you spending time with Dongpyo at all. It's like two of his children goofing around together and it just warms his heart to see it. The rest of the members literally call him Dad Seungwoo and you and Dongpyo his two children.

Despite his carefree attitude, you still feel obligated to assure him, through small gestures, that your goofy friendship with Dongpyo doesn't even begin to compare with your love for Seungwoo. 

Like this one time you guys were playing football with the rest of the members, you deliberately bumped into Dongpyo so he wouldn't block Seungwoo's goal. And this other time you slipped an extra slice of pizza into his plate.  

You think he doesn't notice, but he does. And it only makes him you love more and more. 

Ignore the caps

Seungyoun

Doesn't mind you spending time with Wooseok at first. In fact he is happy you are getting along with the rest of the members, since at first you were a bit reserved. 

But it's all fun and games until you start bringing wooseok in literally every conversation you have. Wooseok this, Wooseok that, it is a literal torture to hear you say his name literally ten times in one sentence. You'd continue relaying all you day's activities with Wooseok, noticing his annoyance only once he folds his hands on his chest and pouts a little. 

"Also, Wooseok asked me to go with him and a few friends to this art exhibition tomorrow... But I told him I couldn't because I have a wonderful, amazing, hyperactive boyfriend back at home who I'd rather spend my day, and quite possibly my whole life with."

It'd take only a moment for his million dollar smile to appear on his face, making you regret every moment you spent not looking at.

You'd take his shoulder and put it across your own, a moment after which he'd pull you into his chest. 

"I love you. And literally nothing will change that."

Did anyone ese notice that little thing he did with his legs??? Im-

Wooseok

You hanging out with Dohyon activates panicked Wooseok mode. He actually considers your pair a hazard to the society. Probably because you and Dohyon accidently deleted all of his selfies from his phone once, and then dropped the phone in a puddle. Accidently...😅

Whenever you and wooseok are out with the boys, he makes sure to put a distance of at least a few feet between you and Dohyon, to make sure no funny business goes on between you too. Effective as it may sound, this tactic didn't save him from a bowl of hot soup being dropped onto his lap, when you and Dohyon decided it would be fun to pass the bowl around as if it was a goddamned basketball. 

He vowed never to go to any gathering, that would involve Dohyon and you being together, ever again.

Yohan

You spending more time with Seungwoo would literally be his excuse to dodge any plan you made with him. For example, you’d casually ask him if he wanted to go watch a movie and he’d easily circumvent his way around the whole plan with one short phrase,

“Why don’t you go with Seungwoo? You spend more time with him than with me anyways.”

See? Yohan hits two birds with one stone just like that. One, he gets to avoid going to the cinema. Second, he calls you out for getting too attached with Seungwoo.

But, at the end of the day, it is Yohan we’re talking about. A Yohan who is truly, deeply in love with you. So when you tauntingly reply with “Fine, then I guess I’ll go with him”, he’ll be running after you, saying his sorrys and explaining how he’ll watch a hundred movies with you if you forgive him, not knowing that all your anger had faded the moment his hand clasped yours. 

Hangyul

Hangyul feels kind of guilty that you spend more time with Hyeongjun, mostly because he thinks it’s because he isn’t able to give you enough time. Other than that, he doesn’t mind it. In fact seeing you and Hyeongjun playing video games together makes him feel like he has adopted two children.

Two very pretty, cute children. Why doesn’t he have any concerns over you not spending more time with him? The answer is simple. He doesn’t want to be or is the possessive boyfriend who wouldn’t let you spend even a second away from him. He respects your choices and most of all, he trusts you enough.

After all, it would be hard not to when the last and first thing you say to him each day is a three-word phrase he would never get tired of listening.

Junho

Our robot boy obviously shows no outward reactions when he notices you’ve been spending a little too much time with Seungyoun. Though, in his heart, he has already started overthinking. Was he too boring? Should he stop taking you go to the same coffee shop each time you went on a date? And most of all, were you drifting away from him?

The anxiety tore his mind apart. Until one day, when he was returning to the dorms, he overheard you talking to Seungyoun. He was about to release a sigh of frustration but then he heard what you were saying. And it made him stop dead in his tracks.

“-It’s weird, I know but Junho just… I don’t even know if it is describable, he is like home. Like that feeling when you’ve been out too long and then you finally get home and all these feelings of comfort, love and warmth hit you all at once. That’s Junho for me…”

The smile that grew on Junho’s face could tear his face apart, but he didn’t seem to care.

Dongpyo

Let me just say this boy is on a whole new level of jealous each time he sees you with Eunsang. But it’s not the ‘I won’t let you spend time with other people because I’m an asshole’ type of jealous, it’s the cute kind. The kind where he spends all night trying to beat Eunsang’s high score on a particular video game, after he saw you complimenting him over it. And the kind where he bumps over like a bunch of people in an attempt to reach the seat beside you in the cinema before anyone else. Or the kind where he whispers, in his half asleep voice, how much you mean to him and that you deserve the world while slowly drifting off to a blissful sleep.

So, like I said, it’s really cute.

Minhee

Did someone say jealous? Please, Minhee is the last person on earth to be jealous, and that too of Yohan? That big, goofy giant? He is too confident in the effect he has on you to care about you spending a tad bit more time with Yohan. Although that doesn’t mean he doesn’t shut you up with a kiss each time you bring Yohan up. And not sure if I mentioned but this boy is whipped for you. Like he’d cut himself out of most conversations but the moment someone mentions your name, no one can shut him up.

“So you sure you’re not going to the pizza parlour with us?” Yohan asked him as Minhee casually lounged on a sofa, bored to the core but too persistent on not going out. 

“Duh? Do you even know what a pizza does to your body? It’s a hazard for your health and not to mention its-”

Before Minhee could continue his sermon on how pizza was the equivalent of poison, you appeared, peaking your head out of the corner of the room, and cut him off,

“Minhee, you’re not coming?!”

Your abrupt presence would snap him from his sermon, making him rethink every word he said about pizza in the last five minutes. With a scoff, he’d turn his words around,

“Of course I am coming! I mean who would say no to pizza? It’s like the best thing in the world, I was just explaining how healthy pizza can be for your body to Yohan, but he didn’t seem to understand it.”

Yohan could only watch as he saw the Minhee who’d rather spend the day alone, writhing in boredom, now all fresh and enthusiastic, all because of you.

He smiled while watching Minhee interlock his hand with yours, the small gesture giving him a visual representation of what love really was.

Eunsang

Much like Junho, this boy is anxious to see you getting close with Hangyul. To the point that he nearly bites his nails off whenever you two are together, always in apprehension of what Hangyul was doing right that he wasn’t.

But, of course, his anxiety is short-lived. Because the moment he sees you smile at him as if you were born only to smile for him, and the moment you kiss him as if nothing could stop you from doing so, his anxiety fades, just...like...that.

Hyeongjun

So y’all know how someone people are chill, then there are people who are chill-er and then people who are, like the chillest? Well, that’s exactly the kind of person Hyeongjun is when he realizes a certain someone has been spending a little too much time with Junho. 

Hyeongjun may be young but he is mature enough not to be jealous or anything. So what if you were spending a few extra minutes with Junho? didn’t change the fact that Hyeongjun was the one who you kissed goodnight everyday, not Junho.

Dohyon 

So everyone knows Dohyon’s a genius right? Well, unfortunately, that title extends only to music not too practical life. Because this boy has created all the worst scenarios in his mind when he realized how invested you and Minhee had been together ever since you guys got hooked onto this stupid video game.

“Y/n...You still like me, right?”

The question caught you off guard, snapping your attention from the view of the setting sun in front of you. You eyes him for a moment, searching for a hint of mischief somewhere in his eyes.

You found none.

“Why would you ask that?”

Fearing he had upset you, Dohyon stutterd, “I-I don’t know...I’m sor-”

“Nam Dohyon, let me make one thing clear to you..”

You turned towards him, the setting sun shading his face with an ethereal hue. His hand in yours, his breaths ragged.

“Like and love are two overused words. For a person as substantial for me as you, I’d never use them. Though, if you really are that curious, you could consider yourself like air for me. You make me feel alive and follow me everywhere. You’re the only constant in a world of variables.”

Thanks for reading as always! Just a PSA that I love and appreciate each and every anon who sends a request or compliment my way, tysm y'all. I seriously don't deserve this much love 😂

P.s Since the image limit is 10 on the mobile app, I couldn't add a gif for Dohyon.

On a rainy day, Gahyeon and Hyeongju walk passed each other. As their eyes met, Gahyeon felt a strange feeling of strong familiarity. It’s the first time since Gahyeon saw him, but it felt like she knew him before.

“Wait” She said. Hyeongju turned to her. 

“I- Have we met before?”

“No.” Hyeongju answered, trying hard not to crack his voice, and turned his back to her. It felt like everything turned numb and the only thing he can hear are the raindrops falling as his tears starts to fall too. 

Hyeongju knows that she would walk on this street today. Because he always remembers, but Gahyeon always forgets.

Meet the Yoon Vampire Clan!!

Jaeseong- the eldest of the clan, and the leader. Mysterious and very traditional, he rules the clan with his partner Jisoo.

Jisoo- the co-ruler of the clan, and the second eldest. She and her husband have turned the two boys and two girls. Their children so to speak.

Junho- the eldest of the ‘children’. He takes after his father and is very traditional. Only drinks from humans. Very intense.

Hyeongju- the youngest of the boys, he is much more playful than his brother. He tries his best to fit in with his clan, but he’s much less serious and doesn’t care too much for rules.

Eunji- is the middle child. Born or turned between Junho and Hyeongju. She takes after her mother and father, ruthless and stoic. She’s quite serious and is very strict towards the youngest members of the clan.

Eunjeong- the baby. Soft and sweet. Has a hard time controlling her thirst but she’s working on it! Playful like her older brother Hyeongju. Can be found with him, running around the manor.
