Chum Liveblog - Chapter 1

So i already read this chapter but will read it again bc it fucks. Go read Chum by @reachartwork if you like baby superheroes with weird powers. Mute the tag #chum liveblog if you arent interested! I might also move this to my main @bugbeee if people prefer that

1) the writing style draws me in immediately since the way the narrator (Sam) thinks and talks is so very reminiscent of my own adhd riddled brain. The way she notices one thing before immediately moving to the next detail is just. Chefs kiss

2) the tapa tapa tapa does something to my hindbrain. Like literary asmr.

3) god Sam's awkwardness and hesitance about her accident combined with her bluntness is so fucking good

4) SHARK TEETH SHARK TEETH SHARK TEETH

5) SHARK TEETH WITH DRAWBACKS HOT DAMN

6) “I didn’t get any gills though, which would’ve been cool. I can’t breathe underwater. But I think I can swallow salt water, but that’s kind of a sh- kind of a poopy superpower so you don’t need to write that one down. Don’t write that one down, please?” I would die for you Sam

7) god the author is so good at writing the livewire nervousness that accompanies the MC. Like the little details of bouncing knees and flexing hands that she grabs to stop, the tapping and moving- i love you so much for this

8) her mom taught her the word austere :)

9) ohhh she's got those bruce the shark powers (sniffing blood)

10) god her asking if the officer needs her friends contact numbers like the fbi shes just a KID

11) ohoho JLUMA??? desperate to know the acronym meaning for that. Its something shes applied for and its a license so hmmm [thinky face]

12) the way she gets annoyed over her parents gushing over her its so teenager i love her. Also she did so good at her bat mitzvah :)

13) "Once I get my license, does that mean I can go out and start biting people? Not that I plan to do that, I’m just wondering.” Yeah does she know i would die for her???

14) sam says acab fuck yeah

15) Officer Gold shrugs his shoulders and opens the front door, clearly also trying to escape the situation like I am. “Well, who knows. A supe just got elected to City Council. Maybe you’ll be the first superhuman senator if you stay in school and focus on your studies?” Oh that is a fucking gorgeous piece of foreshadowing/world building. Frothing at the mouth rn

16) THE CATEGORIES time to toss the worm categories out of my brain

17) breakdown of her powers a la government dossier! God its fascinating to see how its classified and seen in this world

18) AND WE HAVE AN ACRONYM MEANING 'Juvenile License to Utilize Metahuman Abilities' holy shit theres so much unsaid in that. When did it come about, how, whats its scope (which was briefly touched upon) etc. i cannot WAIT

19) bad dream/flashback? Its written so well and sams commentary of it feels real. "The situation is fucked beyond repair. I think I’m allowed to say that now."

20) oh my fucking god. "I hope I don’t die right now, because thinking about my parents being sad at my funeral makes me sad, but also, I hope I do die, because if I have to live one more second with this kind of pain I’m going to kill myself, myself." Author. Author. Who gave you the RIGHT to hit me like that

21) her realisation about why shes in so much pain, seeing her grandpa screaming through the water, the fishing metaphors- aughhhhhhhh

22) god i love the continued mention of words her mom has taught her its just. So fucking real of her

Conclusion: holy fucking shit what an absolute BANGER of a first chapter. I am hooked. I am printing this out and eating it. Thank you author for writing this, I will read more tomorrow

LIST

GET IT, GET IT: THE 25 DOPEST BASS SONGS

By Stereo Williams

Published Wed, April 6, 2022 at 5:00 PM EDT

Bass music is one of the building blocks of southern Hip-Hop and one of Hip-Hop's most distinct sounds and styles. It populated dancefloors across the South as far back as the mid-1980s, with roots in both the clashing electro of Mantronix and the futuristic bombast of the Soulsonic Force. With pioneers like Luther "Luke" Campbell and DJ Magic Mike at the forefront, it became a huge commercial force in the 1990s, before being supplanted by coming styles like crunk. 

It's always guaranteed to get everybody sweatin' and the fastest way to turn the party up. So we picked 25 of the greatest bass songs. Let the booty-poppin' commence...

#26

"SHORTY SWING MY WAY" - K.P. & ENVYI [BONUS SONG]

In late 1997, this track was one of the most inescapable club songs of the era. Neither K.P. nor Envyi saw much success after this Top Ten hit, but they have one of the most indelible bass/R&B crossover hits in the genre. 

#25

"SALLY (THAT GIRL)" - GUCCI CREW II

This group out of Miami had already recorded an album when this horny story rap started blowing up on regional radio. Produced by group member Disco Rick, the goofy-but-infectious single became a hit around the South and their album So Fresh, So Def, So Stupid one of the more successful follow-ups to 2 Live Crew's breakthrough.

#24

"BOOM! I GOT YOUR BOYFRIEND" - MC LUSCIOUS

Bass music had no shortage of songs about big butts and boobs, so it was a welcome change when MC Luscious decided to brag about bagging sexy guys. The Miami native's single caught fire on radio and she became a mainstay of the bass scene throughout the 1990s. 

#23

"THE MOST BEAUTIFUL GIRL" - RAHEEM THE DREAM

Bass music and R&B made for some truly great musical cross-pollination, and very few could claim to be better at it than Raheem The Dream. The Atlanta native was a pioneer of A-T-L Hip-Hop and helped launch the career of Terius "The-Dream" Nash with this seductive club track.

#22

"WHATZ UP, WHATZ UP" - PLAYA PONCHO

As southern Hip-Hop saw suddenly surging commercial appeal in the mid-1990s, Atlanta's most visible label released a compilation dedicated to the sound the Dirty South was forged in. And one of the standout tracks was this Bankhead Bounce-inducing banger from Playa Poncho—co-produced by L.A. Sno of Duice (more on them in a sec.)

#21

"DUNKIE BUTT" - 12 GAUGE

It sounded like the theme song for a dance craze that never quite happened, but that's how popular this single was in spring 1993. "Ridin' that dunkie" might have never become a thing (or did it, are we sure it didn't?), but this song from ATL native 12 Gauge captures an era when bass songs were all over the radio. 

#20

"DA' DIP" - FREAK NASTY

Speaking of bass songs that crossed over majorly, this club anthem was seemingly everywhere in 1997. It became a fixture at sporting events, at house parties, at bar mitzvahs, and everywhere in-between; but the single from Atlanta star Freak Nasty failed to chart when it was initially released the year prior. Proof that steady wins the race, it eventually peaked on Billboard's Top 20.  

#19

"2 MUCH BOOTY" - SOUNDMASTER T

It works as a booty-shaking an anthem and as an ode to body-positivity—if you wanna hear it that way. Soundmaster T gave the world a great dedication to junk in ya trunk, one that stood out even in a genre known for a fixation with asses. And it's great workout music. 

#18

"BABY BABY" - KILO ALI

Kilo's 2nd act happened as bass music was going from neighborhood parties to the pop charts. When Ali teamed up with Atlanta production legends Organized Noize, the results were his best album and one of the most inspired releases from the latter days of bass. This is a scorcher that straddles the line between R&B and bass, with Kilo's raps gliding over the slinky beat.

#17

"SCRUB DA GROUND" - SPLACK PACK

Coming straight out of Palm Beach, Fla. by way of Atlanta, this trio scored a hit with this ode to booty-dropping. It became one of the biggest dancefloor jams of 1994 and was an important link between early Miami bass and an emerging commercial wave that Splack Pack helped fuel.

#16

"WHOOT! THERE IT IS" - 95 SOUTH

Was there another, technically more popular version of this song with a slightly different spelling? Why yes—yes, there was. But (we mean no disrespect to Tag Team) if you know, you know that 95 South gave us the definitive version of this catchphrase-driven hit. But hey, if you prefer the other one, there's nothing wrong with it.

#15

"DICKEY RIDE" - SOUTHERN PLAYAS

Its obnoxious and undeniably fun, one of the most energetic tracks from the golden age of bass. It may not be the smartest song to have on your wedding reception DJ request list, but there aren't many guaranteed to work up a sweat on the floor like this one.

#14

"DAZZEY DUKS" - DUICE

This trio from Augusta, GA, struck gold with their very first single. This smash was obviously inspired by the leggy brunette of Dukes Of Hazzard fame (obvious to anyone born before 1985, that is), and the skimpy shorts she was known for rocking on the show. It inspired a fashion trend and odd spellings—in one fell swoop. 

#13

"HOES-N-DA-HOUSE" - DJ UNCLE AL

The late legendary DJ Uncle Al was all about throwing hype parties to keep the community jamming and safe. This is his most indelible tune, one that became a mainstay at parties and in clubs across the South in the 1990s. It's forever a classic. 

#12

"POP THAT COOCHIE" - 2 LIVE CREW

They were probably the reason your parents hated rap music. The most notorious act to emerge from the Miami bass scene, 2 Live Crew had no shortage of raunchy anthems; and of course, "Me So Horny" is the most well-known. But this is the best example of everything that made them infamous: it's filthy, it's catchy, and it makes you wanna hit the floor.

#11

"SHAKE IT" - MC SHY-D

The man who put Atlanta rap on the national map, MC Shy-D also gave the A one of it's great 80s skater rink anthems. The Bronx transplant with the high voice set the stage for an Atlanta music surge, and this is still a quick way to get a party started in GA.

#10

"COCAINE" - KILO ALI

Kilo was rapping about the trap before there was a name for it. The Atlanta rap legend was always a supreme storyteller with a witty perspective; and both are showcased on this inspired look at the crack epidemic. Proof that bass songs could be as topical as they were body-moving. 

#9

"CAN'T STOP NO PLAYER" - DA ORGANIZATION

With this collective's lone album arriving near the end of the heyday of bass music, it's easy to ignore how forward-pointing this Isleys-sampling classic single truly was. With one foot in classic bass sounds and another seeming to hearken to what was coming next, it's still one of the best songs from a genre's latter years.

#8

"IT'S MY CADILLAC (GOT THAT BASS)" - MC NAS-D AND DJ FREAKY FRED

There's just something about this regional hit from MC Nas-D and DJ Freaky Fred that perfectly captures an era. This is a quintessential bass song, and it stayed on DJ rotations for years throughout the South and beyond.

#7

"TOOTSEE ROLL" - 69 BOYZ

In a genre known for getting the the floor hyped, the 69 Boyz still somehow felt like the kings of the party. The Boyz hailed from Florida, but they'd come out of Jacksonville and Orlando, nonetheless, they carved a major niche with spring break-friendly bass anthems. And this was the biggest. Who cares if "Sweet as gold" doesn't really make sense? Besides, any song that inspires a dance named after a piece of candy is a damn good song.

#6

"SCARRED" - LUKE FEAT. VERB AND TRICK DADDY

Who has more classics than Uncle Luke? In 1996, the legend made it clear that he wasn't going anywhere with this automatic dancefloor filler. It features a high-powered verse from Verb and, of course, introduced the world to none other than Trick Daddy Dollar$.

#5

"DROP THAT BASS (PT. 2)" - DJ MAGIC MIKE

One of the founding fathers of Miami bass and a seminal figure in Florida Hip-Hop, Michael Hampton helped kickstart a movement. Always a versatile DJ and producer, Mike scored a regional smash with this trunk-rattling anthem that musically transported the Soulsonic Force to the Sunshine State.

#4

"THAT'S RIGHT" - DJ TAZ W/RAHEEM THE DREAM

An inspired flip of Ready For the World's 80s quiet storm fixture "Tonight" is the foundation for this bass classic. Taz's breakout hit happened just as bass music's commercial height was beginning to wane, but it crossed over to pop and R&B audiences thanks to a popular video—and thanks to the fact that it's catchy as hell.

#3

"MY BOO" - GHOST TOWN DJS

As we mentioned, bass beats and R&B vocals could be musical magic; and there was never a better example than this hit from summer 1996. Ghost Town DJ's smash single was one of the most inescapable songs of that year—and it still evokes the spirit of cruising the Dirty South during the hot months.

#2

"SHAKE WHAT YA MAMA GAVE YA" - POISON CLAN

Yes, there are other versions. But they all pale in comparison to the raunchy original.  The inimitable J.T. Money really came into his own after the departure of Debonaire following Poison Clan's debut, and the result was a harder, meaner record. It also yielded this—one of the most foul-mouthed bass classics of all time.

#1

"I WANNA ROCK (DOO DOO BROWN)" - LUKE

It's been sampled. It's been remixed. It's been quoted. If someone—anyone—ever asks you: "What the hell is bass music?," this is the song you should play for them. It's a bootyshake classic, a strip club anthem, the kind of song that will make your Methodist grandmother git down looooow. Nobody ever did it better than Luke and this is the legendary Mr. Campbell at his nastiest and most fun. The bass song that's impossible to hate. Somebody somewhere is poppin' that thang to this track right now.

Make A Perfect Experience By Choosing Best Photo Booth

You have decided to add a photo booth to your wedding ceremony or corporate event and want to ensure that your guests make the most of it? Here are some helpful hints for making your Photo Booth Sydney encounter a perfect success.

Positioning. The positioning of your photobooth is critical. Set it up in a prominent location near the action. The ideal location is near the bar and/or dancing floor. Also, ensure that the placement of your photobooth is well-lit and not in a dark area of the room. People leaving the photobooth must enjoy their prints as well as the opportunity to view and sign your scrapbook. We've been in the photo booth rental industry for years, so we've seen the raw emotions of people laughing out loud, impatiently waiting by the scrapbook station, meeting in groups to judge their newest adventure in the photobooth, and then having fun making a scrapbook.

Make sure to inform your guests about the option of Wedding Photo Booth Hire Sydney, its location, and that it is free of charge. Request that your DJ or MC make an announcement regarding your photo booth all through the evening. Place table cards with information about it on them, and leave a note at each place setting.

Make use of props. Do you want to liven up your Photo Booth Hire Cheap Sydney? Because of the enjoyment they promote, props are a must-have for weddings, business parties, cafe mitzvahs, club nights, quinceaneras, christmas parties, school events, proms, family gatherings, fundraisers, and some other events. Many Photo Booths Sydney rental firms charge extra for props or incorporate them into their packages. You are also welcome to bring your favorite props. Here are some suggestions: goofy spectacles, pirate kudos, including a parakeet, spyglass, eye fixes, pieces of gold, an earring, warrior props, a weapon, a shield, a headgear, queen and king crowns, smiles on a stick, moustaches on a rod, glasses with moustaches, noses, and eyebrows, bozo noses, a variety of wigs, boas, air ripped toys and percussion equipment, frames, signage, whiteboard squiggles, feather fans

Use an external monitor. Look for a firm that provides an external monitor that plays a slide presentation of the photos captured in the photobooth. It usually draws a large crowd and is a big hit with the visitors, causing humorous moments and providing them posing ideas.

Hire a Gif Photo Booth from a reputable photo booth rental agency. You can even think about the service of photo booth attendant as they would ensure that everything runs smoothly and successfully at your event.

The iconic traditional strip booths are just one of the different types of photo booths that can be rented. These booths are inexpensive to rent and provide excellent keepsakes for both guests and hosts. Simply sit on the bench within, close the curtain, and create a hilarious face! It's that easy, and you'll have two panels of four photos in minutes.

Do small hints of a character’s Jewishness work, or do more harm than good?

@oatily asked:

I’m writing a HP fanfic and the mc has a Jewish friend. He’s really politically active, the one who radicalizes mc on stuff like the oppression of werewolves, the slave labor of house elves etc. Generally really smart passionate guy. I grew up atheist and pretty much completely outside of religion. I think I would need to take multiple college courses to fully understand any religion, but I still want to provide good rep. I’ve read a lot of Shira’s blog, but are there any subtle ways to include his faith without having an in depth understanding of the religion? Or should I just not mention his faith at all if I do not completely understanding the details of Judaism? I’m willing to put in the time to research ,and I already have quite a bit, but I think it would take me years and many classes before I felt proficient in my understanding. I guess my question is: Is it enough to put in small hints like the character eats kosher and goes home for Jewish holidays or does only mentioning these surface level things do more harm than good?

WWC NOTE: this question was answered to fill a gap in coding questions around Jewish characters, and it just so happened to be about HP fic. We at WWC, including specifically the Jewish team, do not condone the TERF-ness (or racism, anti-semitism, transphobia, or fatphobia) of JKR. We hope that the principles we used to answer this post will be useful for writers of other fandoms and for original fiction as well.

Mentioning surface level things is fine if they’re the right surface level things.

For example, someone who “goes home for Chanukah” is clearly only going home because that’s when the Christian-rooted school calendar says there’s a holiday, but if someone went home for new year’s (Rosh Hashanah) or Yom Kippur in the fall, or for their family’s Passover seder in the spring, that would feel accurate.

One way you could make sure that your surface level mentions are the right details to add rather than subtract verisimilitude, is to trade beta-readings with a Jewish friend and ask specifically for suggestions of places in the story where the little mentions would make sense. For example, if they’re in a history class and the teacher is talking about a particular time in history when we weren’t allowed in England, the kid might chuckle aside to his friend “my ancestors weren’t even allowed here that year.”

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_the_Jews_in_England

(Or less depressing, “oh hey, that’s the same year my folks came here from Russia/Germany/whatever”)

Kids in that series are also sometimes around the right age to become b’nei mitzvah, or to have had that just happen, so “and now on top of all these spells I have to learn my Torah portion?” or to mention some amusing incident that happened at his bar mitzvah reception if it was a couple of years ago, that’s another way to throw in a casual reference. If the kid is magic-born maybe the kiddush cup or fancy pen or whatever that his parents gave him for his bar mitzvah has magic properties. Come to think of it, going home over the weekend for his little sister’s bat mitzvah would be another good thing to work in, speaking of that age.

--Shira

How does the character's faith shape his passion for social justice?

Hello 😊 I love the sound of your activist Jewish character and the fact that the character’s existence actually addresses some of the problems with the source material.

The word you’re looking for is Tikkun Olam, an important Jewish middah (value) that translates to ‘healing the world’. One way to include the character’s faith in the story is to lean into how it shapes his passion for social justice:

· Does he have a particular rabbi or other spiritual leader who is his Tikkun Olam inspo? For example, my brother is Orthodox and vegan, and he loves to quote Rav Kook, a 19th/20thC rabbi and advocate for environmental justice and animal rights, as they exist in Jewish thought.

· Does he have a chavruta (Torah study buddy) and is he learning something that supports his views on discrimination?

· Were his ancestors activists at key moments in Jewish or world history?

As for other aspects of Jewish identity, there is actually already a fanfic about this, so I would recommend starting there. Again, not sharing this in support of JKR’s views – see below – but the fandom belongs to the fans, not the author.

What does the character do on Saturdays?

I think the key to a lot of other questions about this character is going to be, “What does he do on Saturdays?” That is to say, what denomination is this kid from and how observant is he personally? This may only directly come into play if you’re specifically writing a scene stated to occur on a Saturday, but it’ll inform what mentions of Jewishness even make sense for his character. So let’s think through Jewish life at Hogwarts for a moment:

Denomination:

Are there enough Jewish students that they have a weekly visiting rabbi holding services on campus? Do Jewish students go off-campus to services at Temple Beth Anakim or Congregation Adath Kesem (Reform and Orthodox respectively) in Hogsmeade (I just made them up)? If so, an Orthodox or Masorti group of kids might go to Hogsmeade before dinner Friday and not come back until Saturday night, and thus be missing from action that took place in between, while a Reform group might only be away from Hoqwarts for an hour and a half Friday evening. Or he might choose not to go at all, either because he’s from a secular or non-observant family, or because he’s not comfortable in services for reasons of his own, or because the plot needs him around, in which case maybe pretending to be sick to get out of going to services without raising attention could give him some rounded characterization.

Observance:

As ever a quick reminder that denominational affiliation and personal observance are related but not 1-1 correlated. A character who regularly attends Orthodox or Masorti services might not personally have a problem writing, using money, or doing other activities that observant Jews typically avoid on Shabbat, or they might do them but have Feelings about it, or they might scrupulously avoid them. A character who regularly attends Reform services may not have an inner conflict about doing these things on Shabbat, but they might be sick and tired of being judged by more observant Jews about it--or they might be more personally observant and have to defend that practice around other Reform students.

Now, I’m not saying you have to include a detailed examination of your character’s inner feelings around their Shabbat observance in order to have them pop into the plot, say “Hi, house elves should have rights, see ya later,” but knowing the answer to this will help you come up with what does fit in your plot as far as what’s actually Jewish about your Jewish character.

You offered some beginning thoughts about this, but here are some additional quick questions about Jewish life at Hogwarts:

Does your character keep kosher? Where does kosher food at Hogwarts come from? Does the castle kitchen have a separate kitchen where specially-trained house elves prepare meals for the Jewish students? Is it apparated in from outside? Is it the same, better, or worse than the non-kosher alternatives? If he doesn’t keep kosher, does he have feelings about it? Does he joke about kashrut while eating a cheeseburger (have house elves heard of cheeseburgers?) or does he eat his black bean burger on a separate plate while wishing it tasted as good as your main character’s cheeseburger smells?

Shira mentioned b’nai mitzvah; If your story takes place in year 1, 2, or 3, your Jewish character is not only learning the difference between leviOsa and levioSA, they’re also learning how to decode and pronounce a not-insignificant portion of Hebrew scripture, as well as chant it according to a pre-medieval system of musical notation. Who are they studying with, and when do they practice? If they’re older, then did your main character come to their Jewish friend’s bar mitzvah? Why or why not?

Shoshi mentioned continuing Jewish education and connection: aside from the technical study, how does your character study Jewish history and culture, that he can draw on it to power his progressive politics? A chavruta would be another Jewish student they meet with specifically to study Jewish text, while a Jewish professor might be a role model or may be teaching them extra subjects on the side.

Ultimately, though, what hints you drop that reveal your character’s Jewishness are going to get easier to figure out when you can be confident answering what does your character do on Saturdays.

VIRTUAL PARTY TIPS AND ENTERTAINMENT IDEAS

Planning to celebrate a special occasion despite the distance?

We got you! A virtual party is a creative solution to have memorable moments with your loved ones amid the pandemic. While there’s nothing like gatherings to help celebrate life’s milestones, hosting a virtual party is a popular alternative to keeping the celebrations going.

Because of the pandemic, in real life parties are restricted. But virtual events are getting more and more creative these days. Now you can celebrate with an online birthday party, Sweet 16, Bar Mitzvah or Bat Mitzvah. Take a school event or a corporate celebration online. You can also have a virtual game night or even host a virtual wedding ceremony.

Here are some helpful information on hosting a virtual party. We also included entertainment ideas to get you started.

Pick the best date and time

First, pick the best time and date. One of the best things about virtual events is that you can celebrate with your family and friends wherever they are in the world. However, the date and time are as relevant as ever. Also, keep in mind that there are more activities happening from home these days like work and other important matters. You can ask your attendees for time and date suggestions. Go with the one where most people will be available.

Choose a virtual party theme

Next, choose a theme for your online party. Just like in real life events, the theme will make it extraordinary. You can make virtual invitations, set a dress code, and pick activities around it. This way, your party will be set apart from the usual online meetings and video calls. The theme will add to the fun and give you the feeling of togetherness, even though you’re just seeing each other through screens.

Set a program

Another important element: the party program. Treat your virtual event like a real party. Create an event timeline to make sure everything goes smoothly. Ideally, online parties shouldn’t be too long. A 30 minutes to 1 ½ hour program is good for most online gatherings. You can include visual presentations and online party games to make it more exciting.

Select your virtual party platform

Online platforms are the new party venues. It can be on Google Hangouts, Skype, FaceTime, or Facebook Messenger. The current favorite is hosting a Zoom party. Take it to the next level by live steaming your event on social media. Facebook Live, Youtube Live, Instagram Live, and Twitch are some top options.

Hire event entertainment professionals

Final tip: trust the experts. Hire event entertainment professionals as you would for in real life events. This will totally elevate your virtual party experience. Hiring a professional DJ, MC, and other entertainers who offer to showcase their talents online will save you from the stress of running the event by yourself and having awkward or dull moments. They will keep the program going in perfect timing. Most importantly, the event experts will make sure you and all the attendees are being in the moment and having a great time.

Hiii! I only use one song per request, so I decided to go with #38~ Hope you like it, I could see myself writing about this scenario again <3

series: 500 followers event

pairing: Jumin x MC [Mystic Messenger]

song: Crowded Room - Selena Gomez

Baby, it’s just me and you, just us two, even in a crowded room, baby it’s just me and you

Being a heiress in Korea was tiring. Once MC turned eighteen, her mother started introducing her to other wealthy young man, whose families owned companies that could benefits hers. Even if at first she hadn't been in board with the idea of her mother choosing her husband, a vain hope of actually falling in love with one of those men crossed her mind, so she agreed to the first date.

The blonde young man had been a true gentleman, paying for dinner and holding her chair for her. She went on to a second and third date with him where she only managed to fall even deeper for him. Maybe her mother was right, maybe she knew what was best for her.

A few weeks later, while on a drive, she lowered the car windows and managed to see him getting out from a motel. He was alone, but MC knew there was no way he was by himself in a motel room. That same night, she confronted him. Instead of denying it, he agreed he actually had a girlfriend that he met regularly. While he apologized for letting himself be seen getting out of that place and promised be would be more careful the next time.

That was the first time MC got her heart broken.

She gave it two more tries. Third time's the charm, she repeated herself. But between the automobile company heir who pulled her arm harshly just because she refused to go to his place and the heir of an airline company that was gay and needed a cover up, MC decided love wasn't made for an heiress and that she would have to settle for a lonely life. She would maybe adopt later in life as she did want to be a mother, but she got tired of finding decent men in her social circle. MC once thought about going to a bar and meeting someone normal, but the warning her mother gave her about normal people taking advantage of her money and social position scared her off.

She was twenty three the last time she got her heart broken. It had been six years since then and she had refused to date again. Her mother had protested at first, but after all those years, she had finally accepted her daughter wasn't getting married at all.

"Men don't like powerful women. They react better to a wife than a heiress that rules her own company" she had reminded MC.

"Well, I'll make them respect me" MC had answered.

She was a natural at doing business. MC used the perfect balance between flirty mannerisms and strong arguments to close deals. Knowing it wasn't enough, she studied a MBA which helped her take her family's company to a whole other level.

Even if she had lost all hope in meeting someone, MC loved social gatherings. She used them to meet new business partners, positioning herself and her company as a new and interesting investment option. She was an extrovert by default, so she could always be found laughing or posing for the paparazzi as she left the venue for her car.

One night, she was invited to a small event in a penthouse. She knew the owner, as she had done business with him before, so she was happy to attend. She had introduced herself to a good amount of new people and laughed at their jokes, so she felt she had met her goal for the night. Excusing herself, she went to the bar and asked for a drink. As MC waited, she felt a hand on her shoulder. When she turned around, she saw Jihyun Kim smiling softly at her. She hugged him, a a huge smile on her face.

"I hadn't seen you in ages! I think last time I saw you was in this bar mitzvah when we were thirteen" MC remembered, returning to her spot by the bar. Jihyun laughed softly.

"I remember. I stopped going to these events shortly after"

"Yeah, can’t say I’ve seen you in these gatherings recently. Oh, I stopped by your exhibition the other day, actually. I really liked it. Maybe you'll hear from my assistant in regard of buying one of your pictures" she said, a mischievous smile on her face.

"Now you're just flattering me"

"Am not"

"Well then, thank y--- wow" he suddenly set his eyes to the side, focusing on a couple on the other side of the room. "I think my friend needs me".

MC turned around and saw a tall man with dark hair and gray eyes, accompanying an equally tall blonde woman. They looked like one of those rich, successful couples her mother always wanted her to be a part of.

"He seems fine. That's Jumin Han, right?" she asked. Jihyun nodded.

"He's not fine" Jihyun corrected her with a chuckle. "He doesn't really like when women try to seduce him at these events"

"Yeah, I can get that" she agreed with a shrug. The bartender handed her a martini and she thanked him with a smile before taking a sip. "So, you're just going to barge in and rescue him?"

"Do you have a better plan?" Jihyun asked. MC pursed her lips, her mind going through different options.

"Can I try?" she asked.

"I don't think he remembers you. You two didn't really talk back then"

"That just makes it more fun" she grinned as she gave her glass to Jihyun. MC fixed her hair and walked towards Jumin with a slight away on her hips, shoulders back and emanating confidence, just as she had been doing her whole life.

She put her hand softly on Jumin's arm, making him turn and look at her with a questioning look.

"Oh dear, I'm sorry to interrupt but you asked me to remind you about the Mr. Kim's proposal?" she innocently asked. Jumin looked at her confused, so she tilted her head towards Jihyun, who waved at Jumin from the bar. He visibly relaxed. "I'm sure you don't mind I take him away for a second" she smiled at the woman, who looked like she wanted to hit her. MC kept faking her smile, not expecting to enjoy this. She just wanted to have some fun now that she had met with Jihyun after all those years, but it was like she couldn't stop herself anymore. "Thank you for keeping him company" MC added as she linked her arm with Jumin and guided him towards Jihyun.

Once they reached Jihyun, MC let Jumin's arm go and laughed softly. She positioned herself on Jihyun’s right side as Jumin took his left.

"I'm sorry, I couldn't help but tease her" MC apologized as she let out her hand for Jumin to take. "I'm MC Belmont, from Belmont Enterprises"

"Ah, the ones that have all those clinics and medical equipment, yes. I'm Jumin Han---"

"From C&R, yeah, I know" MC interrupted him with a smile. She shook his hand firmly and then went back to her drink.

"Oh, you know about us then. Did she want to make a deal?" he asked Jihyun.

Before he could reply, MC chided in. "No, I don't really like C&R"

Jumin's neck turned to her direction so fast he was surprised when didn't get whiplash.

"I'm sorry?"

"I don't like its seriousness. We've currently working with a more organic and creative mood to our workplace and I've seen great results. The employees are really happy. I'm not saying C&R is a bad company, I really admire your work; it's clearly distinctive from your father's. I just rather not do business with your company as I can’t see your company working in sync with mine" she explained.

Jumin looked at MC with an arched eyebrow.

"So, which studies have proven your kind of work environment--"

"Mr. Han, please, I'm not here to discuss business" MC excused herself. "But please, have a drink with us. I was just telling Jihyun how it has been ages since I last saw him at one of these events.

It took a while before Jumin could rejoin the conversation. He ordered a glass of wine and then listened to their friend’s conversation with MC. While he did his best to not let his mind wander, he couldn't stop thinking about what MC had said. While he knew other companies made their employees wear casual clothes, had tennis tables, and all that jazz, he had always avoided that line of thought. He thought it was nothing but an excuse to slack off. He clearly must have been misguided, because in front of her was this woman, who he had seen in events before, and she had managed to make her company crawl to the top while using that method.

The waiter gave him his drink and he took a sip. Impressive.

"Also, let me say sorry again for introducing myself that way back there" MC said, making him put his attention on her. "But I know how stressful it can be to deal with people that are on the lookout of relationships and marriages just for the sake of business".

MC pulled out the tip of her tongue, making an disgusted face. Jumin couldn't help but chuckle, finding her facial expression adorable.

"I assume you've had experiences of your own"

"Yes" she sighed, twirling the contents of her glass as she pouted. "It's a cruel world out there, Mr. Han. There is very little hope in finding a suitable partner that doesn't have their eyes on your company"

"Now, that's a very sad way of looking at it, isn't it?" Jihyun commented with a concerned look.

"But she's right" Jumin said, nodding. "You know what I've been through, Jihyun. Also..." he looked at the woman, for the first time taking notice of her pearl necklace. It gave her a nice, classy look. "Jumin is fine" he said.

MC smiled at him, a sharp contrast of the hopeless words that had just fallen from her mouth.

"Thank you, Jumin. You can call me MC as well"

Once they had that exchange, their conversation flowed naturally. They didn't intend to exclude Jihyun, but suddenly it seemed they were the only ones in the penthouse the gathering was at. They shared stories, debated about recent political events and even took part in a little bit of gossip. Jumin couldn't help but be fascinated at how sophisticated that woman looked. She was wearing an off shoulder black dress that made some men turn their heads when they passed by, yet her eyes were fixated on his as he talked. She commented on everything he said, challenged him to find an argument for his opinions and even managed to laugh at one of the jokes he cracked.

After an hour of chatting, Jihyun cleared his throat, making both of them notice how he hadn't been participating before.

"I'm sorry, I got riled up with Jumin's anecdote" MC apologized. Jihyun shook his head with a kind smile.

"It's okay. I'm glad you both get along. I actually should get going, I promised Haneul I wouldn't be home late"

"Haneul?" she asked.

"Jihyun's girlfriend" Jumin clarified. "She's an opera singer". MC opened her mouth in surprise.

"That's amazing! Please, don't let us stop you. Go be with her" she encouraged him.

Jihyun smiled and said his goodbyes. After he left the penthouse, both MC and Jumin kept their eyes on the door in silence, a small smile playing on their lips.

"He seems happy" MC commented, looking at Jumin.

"He is" he agreed. "I don't want to share more than I should, but I'm sure you already know about his ex fiancée"

MC pursed her lips and nodded. She knew about her. Gossips travelled fast in her social circles and even if Jihyun didn't make his presence known in the past years, his father still did, so it was understandable people still talked about him. MC had heard about Jihyun falling into depression after ending his engagement. She didn't know the details but figured they weren't important. She was happy he was feeling better already and had met someone new. It gave her a little bit of hope. That maybe... maybe her love life wasn't doomed at all.

She looked at Jumin from the corner of her eye. It had been years since she had felt a true connection with someone else. Jumin was ravishingly handsome, smart, and had a sense of humour that stroke her as funny. He had made pretty clear he wasn't interested in relationships based on economic interest or deals in between companies. Even if there was a chance he might have been lying, MC would have lied if she didn't slightly hope he was telling the truth.

It would be complicated, that she was sure of. He could be afraid of the same thing, he could think her actions from that night were nothing but an act to get him to trust her. And MC wouldn't blame him. It was sadly natural to get paranoid when you had a background like theirs.

"I should get going too" MC suddenly said. She cursed herself for letting her fears take over her mouth. She didn't want to leave. She wanted to stay a little longer getting to know him. She would hate herself if Jumin ended under the impression she was only talking to him because he was an acquaintance of Jihyun.

"Sure, then have a g--"

"Wait" MC interrupted him. Taking up courage, she opened her purse and took out one of her contact cards and a pen. She put them on the bar and quickly scribbled down something. Before Jumin could ask, she handed the card to him. "Uhm... this is my personal number. So, if you ever want to talk… you know, anything but business, call me. I... I'd like to talk again".

Jumin looked at her blushed cheeks and her tense position as she held a white card between her fingers. He was surprised to say the least, as he was half expecting her to say goodbye and never look back. He nodded as he took the card and put it in his pocket.

"I will" Jumin said, and he really meant it. MC gave him a final smile before she put her pen back in her purse and turned around to leave.

As he watched her go away, he felt the strangest of feelings on his chest. Is this what Jihyun always talked about? He wasn’t sure. The only thing Jumin Han knew was that he was definitely calling her the next day.
