What You Want From Me

✗ Pairing: idol!bf!chani x fem!reader

✗ Word count: 2k

✗ Warnings: lil bit of angst, reader is passive aggressive and immature (boo tomato tomato don't be like reader boooo), no actually reader is so annoying i'm so sorry, fingering (f. receiving), exhibitionism if you squint, orgasm denial, consent could be considered shaky ig but dw everything is consensual here

✗ A/N: this was a daydream i kept having despite the reader behaving absolutely nothing like me. i had to write it to get it out of my head. here's hoping it rots your brains instead xoxo

You’re checking every hanger in your closet to make sure you’re not missing any potential outfits when you hear Chani from the other room. “Y/n, are you ready? We need to leave.” You can tell from the sound of his voice that he’s hovering by the front door, probably busying himself with his phone while he waits for you. You know you’d be leaving this very moment if it were solely up to him. “I need to stop and get gas on the way.”

You had already finished every other part of readying yourself. You showered, moisturized, attended to your hair, and enhanced your features with just enough makeup to make you slightly more radiant. Chani would swear that you couldn’t be more radiant than when you first wake up, but you like to put in that extra bit of effort when you’re going for lunch with others. You don’t care so much when it’s just Chani’s members, but from what you’ve gathered, there will be at least a handful of company staff members attending lunch as well. You want to look nice in front of people that probably care very much about him.

You finally settle on two possible dresses that suit the image you’d like to present. They’re both the same simple silhouette–nothing too proper but certainly not too skimpy either. You’re only struggling over which color to pick. The black one will make you seem more elegant, perhaps currying favor with the staff members that want only the best for Chani. The cerulean one may give the impression that you’re light and bright–a bit of sunshine for everyone around. Who wouldn’t want that, right? Does Chani want a polished girlfriend or a sweet girlfriend for lunch?

Why don’t you just ask him?

You bounce out of your room, dresses held up in a hand each, and find Chani exactly where you thought he’d be. “Babe,” you announce yourself, causing Chani to look up from his phone. “Which dress?”

Chani’s gaze moves from one dress to the other in silence before he looks back at you incredulously. “Y/n, it really doesn’t matter. Can you just hurry up? I’ve told you we need to go multiple times and now you’re showing me the same dress twice and asking me to pick one. Wear whichever one you want. I don’t care.”

I don’t care. Ouch.

You stand there shuffling your feet for a moment. “I just wanted to look nice for you,” you admit in an almost whisper before you disappear into the bedroom again.

You pull the black dress over your head, tossing the bright, light version of you to the floor. You slip on the first pair of shoes you can find and make your way back to Chani. Don’t want to make him wait another second, you think to yourself.

-

The car ride to the restaurant is quiet and so is the lunch itself. You don’t say much because, quite frankly, your feelings are still hurt. You cared so much about this lunch because you love Chani, but he couldn’t care about your dress for two seconds? 

You know you’re being a bit ridiculous, especially because he has apologized to you multiple times. He apologized to you in the car the second your seatbelts were buckled–eyes on yours and your hand in his as he kissed the back of it. When you still didn’t seem to forgive him, he figured he’d let you have time, deciding not to push the issue and just holding your hand softly in his lap while he drove. You could feel his eyes glancing at you every few seconds to gauge you. Clearly, he didn’t mean to upset you.

Even during lunch, he kept apologizing. Despite being surrounded by members that could tease him and staff that he wants to appear responsible in front of, he kept your hand in his. He’d lean over when everyone else was busy talking and press a kiss to your temple, mumbling another soft-spoken apology even when you didn’t respond to any of the previous ones. He was really trying and Chani doesn’t apologize when he doesn’t mean it. You should just tell him about how it made you feel and forgive him. Hell, you were both wrong when you really think about it. You weren’t being respectful of his time and he wasn’t sensitive to your feelings. Neither of you have the upper hand here.

You’re not sure what you expect him to do or why you can’t get out of your funk, but when you step back into your bedroom and see the blue dress on the floor, you know that you’re certainly not over it yet. You step over it and make your way to the bed, situating yourself against the backboard, legs straight out in front of you. Chani followed you the second you parked the car out front, clearly still intent on getting this issue resolved, but you could tell he was starting to lose his patience. That’s almost definitely your fault. You were acting like a brat–refusing to look at him, talk to him, or even acknowledge his presence at all, really.

He places himself on the bed next to you, his back resting against the headboard too. You sink down a bit, creating some distance from him. Even though you can’t see him, you can feel him burning a hole into the top of your head with his eyes. 

“Still not talking to me, mm?” His voice practically falls onto your ears with his position above you like this.

You don’t answer, pursing your lips as your fingers fidget with the hem of your dress. You can’t answer, actually. If you did, you would have to admit that you have been ignoring him on purpose and you’re still not feeling adult enough for that. The silence in the room is suffocating but your stubbornness is unwavering.

“I see,” he finally says after a minute or three of silence. You expect him to get up and keep himself occupied elsewhere, but he doesn’t and you feel frozen. You don’t even want to move for fear that it will pop the bubble of indignance you’ve created around yourself. Chani is not above calling you out. And when he does… he’s almost always right. You can’t have that.

You can feel Chani turn his attention to a bottle of water on the nightstand. He picks it up and takes a nice big drink. Probably calming himself, you suspect. He turns to put it back down where he found it, his other hand sliding itself onto your thigh. Your eyes are immediately focused on his hand and the way it seems to be nonchalantly sliding up the inside of your dress. What does he think he’s up to? Still, you subconsciously part your legs for him, cursing yourself over an instinct you hadn’t expected you’d need to stifle.

You want to look at him. You want to see if he’s smirking about how easily your body gives itself over to him even if seeing that smirk would only make you mad. The only reason you don’t is because you wouldn’t just be mad. You’d be embarrassed.

You follow the trail of Chani’s hand until it reaches its destination: your panties. You almost groan when you realize you wore his favorite pair–a decision made before he hurt your feelings, obviously. His middle finger ghosts over the crotch of the fabric before pushing it to the side. Your breath is caught in your throat and you’re struggling not to make a sound or to move a face muscle. That proves immeasurably more difficult when Chani’s fingertip eases itself onto your clit, rubbing slow circles.

He’s so fucking quiet. It’s maddening. You want him talking. Not because you want to talk to him, but because you want to know why the fuck he’s touching you right now. It feels too good to stop him but not knowing his thought process from she’s ignoring me to i should play with her pussy is driving you crazy.

From the corner of your eye, you can see Chani’s other hand rise from the bed, instagram open on his phone. You can’t believe your eyes as you watch him scrolling lazily through post after post, occasionally double tapping a like while his other hand dips down, two fingers grazing through your folds. You can feel his fingers gliding with more ease by the second, your own body betraying you by giving Chani the arousal he surely expected. You clench your jaw when you feel a moan trying to force its way out. Fuck. Why do you always want him so bad? Even when you swear you’re pissed?

Things continue just like this for a few minutes. Chani’s fingers spread your slick over your cunt and you try like hell not to humor him with indications of the pleasure he’s giving you. He circles your entrance, testing it, and your toes curl, seeking grounding from the mattress. He seemingly gets bored of instagram and swipes it away, switching to some game you couldn’t possibly name as he sinks two fingers inside of you.

Fuck, fuck, fuck. Your head tilts up and to the right as you stare at the ceiling, insisting on not letting him see the way your jaw goes slack. You close your eyes and focus on your breathing as he pumps his fingers inside of you, your body succumbing to him by the moment. You’re fighting a losing battle but you desperately want him to make you cum. Maybe then you’ll forgive him.

You almost jump out of your skin when the silent room is suddenly disturbed by the loud ringing of Chani’s phone. Your eyes are back on his screen, praying that he rejects the call. You know if he answers it then this little game–is that what it is?–will be over. You watch as his thumb moves towards the “accept” button and you start to feel defeated.

Except he answers it and his fingers don’t leave you. Now you’ve seen it all. Chani does not normally take the risk of others hearing or seeing you two engaging in any kind of physical contact. Yet here he is… talking to Hwiyoung as his fingers curl deliciously inside you, pressing right into that spot you so desperately want him to touch. You stare at the side of his annoyingly handsome face in shock, fingers clutching at the blankets beneath you to try and keep yourself composed. It infuriates you that he doesn’t look at you. You’re finally acknowledging him, albeit only with your eyes, and he won’t look at you?

It’s hard to stay too mad, though, when his thumb finds your clit, joining his scissoring fingers in this quest to overwhelm you with pleasure until you break. You’ve decided that’s what this is. And you hate it, but you think he might just win. You can feel yourself tumbling frighteningly close to an orgasm and it’s getting exponentially harder to choke down the sounds you would normally let out freely. The only thing saving you now is Hwiyoung being on the other side of that phone call.

Your head falls back onto the headboard, eyes closed and mouth open in silent moans. You can hear Chani planning to meet up with Hwiyoung and some of the others to do who-knows-what for work but it’s all meaningless to you because you’re unraveling, your body writhing from Chani’s slender fingers. You feel yourself starting to clench around them at the same time as Chani says, “Yeah, I can come by now.”

And then his fingers are pulling out of you and he’s pressing the end call button as he stands up, sliding the phone into his pocket. He gives you a onceover. You’re gawking at him as your body is still recoiling from the orgasm he dangled in front of it, only to snatch it away. He cocks his head to the side. “Hmm. Seems like you need something? Too bad you can’t tell me what that is.”

He heads in the direction of the bedroom door, picking his keys up from the dresser on his way. He stops before he leaves the doorway, turning his head only slightly to say one final thing to you over his shoulder. “Maybe while I’m gone you can think about what it is that you want from me.”

And just like that, he’s gone and you’re feeling exactly what you’ve been hoping to avoid this entire time: embarrassment.

Mutual Masturbation with SF9

Pairing: SF9 x female reader

Warnings: light cumplay, masturbation in a car, bad language.

Bonus song rec: Control me, by Colde

smut content under the cut

Youngbin:

Our leader prefers it when the two of you give one another a performance at the same time. That is a perfect option when you all are tired and horny. He likes the way he can see your body relaxing as the pleasure takes over.

"I feel a bit tense, babe" he gasped "It's like there's an elephant on my shoulders"

"An elephant is a little too much" you chuckled, then offered him a massage.

He dismissed your suggestion right away since he knew how tired you were too. However, a sparkle showed in his eyes and he smirked. "There's another thing I use to do when I'm too tense. You should try it too, beautiful."

You became so genuinely interested in that subject that he almost saved you from his dirty thoughts. But not that night, he took your hand and sweetly guided it to your own crotch.

Minutes later you were sitting side to side on the bed, your backs against the headboard. You whined and settled one of your legs on top of his. "Cum for me, baby girl" Youngbin managed to say as his body too squirmed.

Inseong:

He is obsessed with your body, so he likes it when you touch one another. Coordinating your moves may be hard, but it worths the effort.

Your man locked the door while you quickly started to get rid of your sweaty clothes. Once he turned toward you, he couldn't help a gasp to escape. Your breasts were now covered only by a bralette. You still felt uneasy because the item was also damp against your skin.

"Do you mind if I take a shower with you?" he rushed to add.

You chuckled and headed to the bathroom, sure that he would be following you.

He insisted on helping you clean and that was how you all ended up actually assisting one another get off. Your back found support on the tiles and you moved your hands up and down Inseong's length as fast as he stimulated your clit.

Jaeyoon:

Prefers it in a way that allows your orgasms to be as intense as possible. That means he takes care of himself and so you do, he likes the way you repose your eyes on him as if he is just a hot guy, he is there for your sweet pleasure and eventually, he reaches his climax too.

He begged you to keep going before you could even feel your face burn. If he had let you know that he left work early, you would not be in that situation right in the living room. Your panties were put aside and your dress rolled up.

"You surprised me, sweetheart" he confessed, unbuttoning his pants as fast as he could. As if you were not the one caught with your legs wide open.

The way he hungrily started stroking his soft dick added a brand new motivation to your moves. "You came way earlier than usual" you moaned, looking up at his obscene face.

He was standing, not even worried that his pants and boxers were left pooled by his feet. "Yes, I'm happy to be here now".

Jaeyoon eventually releases his seed on your thigh and finally throws himself by your side for cuddles, apologizing for not being clean.

Dawon:

Not gonna lie, this guy is terrible at doing anything right when he is close to cum. That means something is going to malfunction if you stroke him as he rubs your pussy but that is the best part!

You and Dawon were kissing and being romantic with the lights off in your bedroom. You and he were placed in the center of the bed, your legs around his waist as his legs gave you comfortable support.

You unexpectedly moaned against his lips, which induced him to slip his hand between your bodies and check your wetness. Since you did not bother to disconnect your lips from his, Dawon exposed your folds gently and played with your slippery entrance while you sucked his tongue.

You naively grabbed his hard-on in return and made him disassemble right away. "Fuck" he whispered, pulling his tongue out of your mouth. His digits erratically moved inside your hole as you delicately massaged the tip of his cock, now out of his briefs.

"This is good, right?" you asked.

Zuho:

He can't take his hands to himself. As much as he claims he is in control, he can't even control his own hands when he is with you. Rarely goes to mutual stimulation but admits how satisfying it is.

Zuho did not want you to orgasm fast that night. Not that he was feeling particularly cruel, but he wanted to get home before midnight as much as he wanted to play with your wet pussy. You told him you were in a mood hence he could not keep driving as if he was oblivious of your needs. He, too, needed to inspect your lady parts.

You felt so yummy against his digits, he hated that he could not keep driving like that. His sudden move to stop the car on the side of the driveway startled you. "I can't take it anymore, princess. Can you help me down here"

You got it right away and reached his crotch with your hand, unbuttoning his trousers and pulling his dick out. "Did I get you this hard?" He sped up his massage onto your clit and you jerked him fast in response.

Rowoon:

Okay, Rowoon has a hard time masturbating in front of you. He feels so miserable there, chasing his release by himself, fucking his own hand, making himself whimper. But you actually love it, so he makes an exception.

You noticed his eyes scrutinizing you in a different way when you walked into the bedroom. There was only a towel preventing him from seeing the body he worshiped.

You dropped the fluff fabric dramatically just to see his eyes widen. "Baby, should I dress up or play a tiny bit in front of you now?"

"Love, what are you saying? You should come here" he retorted cordially, patting his lap.

"That's not an option, sugar." You smiled, then started to trace a way down your stomach. "But don't worry I might change my mind if you touch yourself good for me now."

Seokwoo hated that, the gods knew how much he wanted to stand and pull you closer but he was not this kind of person. Then he slowly slipped his sweatpants, just enough to massage his soft length. You sat on a chair and opened your legs to please his eyes more, rewarding him for not being timid.

Yoo Taeyang:

Out of many things that get Taeyang going, the visual is one of them. He gets very aroused from seeing you touching yourself and he WILL take care of himself during these special sessions.

After so many days apart, you and Taeyang were finally reunited. You were so eager to listen to him saying he missed you in your ear. The way you talked impossibly close was maybe what you missed the most. And so were you that night, he hugged you tight as if you could escape from his hands. You told him the best parts of your trip, he asked for details and smiled attentively.

"Changing the subject..." he initiated rubbing your back. "There was that day when you misbehaved"

The mystery in his voice hit you like a train. However, his voice was so velvety, so murky. "But I never-" you returned perplexed.

"That video. I hated that so much, my love" he explained illuminating your memory. You had sent him a video where you touched yourself in your hostel room. That was short and you showed nothing but your weeping face.

"What can I do to apologize?"

He loosened his hold on your body and suggested you do something, he did not use his words nonetheless. He guided your hands to your own clad sex. "Please" he pleaded in your ear.

Hwiyoung:

He loves to say that only you know how to touch him right. There's nothing more reasonable than you touching each other. You all try different positions.

Let's be honest, Youngkyun was made to have his lover lying on top of him. The broad chest and back, strong abdomen and thighs. You want to snuggle onto him like an otter.

Not every time though, sometimes it is not about cuddles and getting comfortable.

His bottoms were nowhere to be seen after you yanked it out of him and tossed it in the corridor. You laid your head on his thigh as your right hand pumped that fat length of him. You were supposed to relax and maintain your focus on the way it twitched and leaked in your grasp, but your folds were facing him, not enough for him to lick you. Yet, he inserted two fingers and held your hips in place, on top of his chest. You belonged there, his finger pads dip into the flesh of your thighs. "You are so wet, baby girl..."

"Fuck" you hissed, you wanted the mark that was coming from his hands, you want that orgasm.

Chani:

Special warning: Light degradation

Unlike Hwiyoung, Chani is obsessed with demonstrating how he likes it. Not that you are incompetent but he will teach you one more time, just because. He is the boss, his job is to say you're doing it the wrong way (or maybe it's his hobby)

"Don't. look. away" he stated.

You were completely naked on the floor, sitting on your ankles. Chani leaned back against his desk. Sweatpants down just enough to free his cock. Of course, there was no glimpse of underwear because he did not wear this kind of shit when you were alone at home. It made things easier.

He checked his own tip and made sure to show you the sticky fluid that already leaked from it. Then he tapped the shaft against his palm in front of your eyes and teased you. "See how hard it is? You gonna grab it after you understand how to do me right. Baby slut."

You squirmed on your place and could not retain a low hiss. You wanted that friction so badly but at the same time, you were afraid of Chani's reaction. His dick was so beautiful and now he was stroking it by himself when it should be you. It should be your mouth, at least.

His hand suddenly came to a halt, fist closed right around the base. You could see his eyes sliding from your boobs to your lower body. "That's okay, you can rub your pussy. Go for it and moan for me"

[nenasspot]

finally here to drop on you: some thoughts on the first ep of starlight boys!

the auditions I have something to say about

blood sweat and tears: ke ming kai, li sheng jun and sheng qi

way too hard song choice. I get why so many trainees would choose a bts song, but why this song? please someone point me towards a cover of bs &t that had the same aura as the original, bc at this point i'm convinced it is uncoverable. the pitch of it, too, is so dangerous in the way that if you don't get the feel of that intro right, you're lost immediately...

breathe: syo and ryou kaito

don't like syo's style of singing. japanese vocal style that will need to go. otherwise, I'm actually pretty neutral about it.

darari: kim seong ju

not him going platinum seller with the trainees lmao. I mean, if anything, it proved the guiders right in giving him one star

crazy form: kim seon jae, han jeong woo and choi jun ho

obviously have been trained. something about the intro was way off, idk if it was the pitch or if it was just done monotonously but it got my sibling and me real scared. not necessary though! the rest of it was pretty great!

black suit: shao zi heng

WOW. he's really good, stable, good pronunciation and mindset, BEAUTIFUL too. spoilers include that he's in my top9 right now. I got real shady vibes at first, about the level of humbled he was giving ... felt like an act for a minute there, but it was probably just the nerves!

my house: han gyul, do ha, min jae, yoo jun

the babies did so great... the AURA in this performance was insane. the synchronized choreo at the start?? oh, these are idols, is what you're telling me

fantastic baby: rex, zhang ji jun and yang yan

I did not enjoy this. audition performances need to showcase skill and potential. if part of your potential is showmanship, then great. if you utilize showmanship purely to draw attention, then there was no potential shown. I can get why the trainees might have liked it though (song choice, atmosphere yada yada)

love 119: wang kun, he xi long, ngan chau yuet, float and zhang jing he

pretty much neutral about this. wasn't bad by any means, but I also already forgot all of them except wang kun

really really: nam son, lee da eul, park yeon wook and jeon min gyu

are they giving da eul another came from the bottom narrative? I feel like he should have come on by himself instead..

rush hour: lee jun hyuk

VERY impressive to do as a one-man performance. entertaining, stable

good guy: pentor and kris

so happy to see an sf9 performance! and done this well?? damn near brought tears to my eyes. pentor has a bright bright future ahead, and kris was also not to be forgotten!

answer: duan xing xing, yoo gwan woo and sun ying hao

xing xing is so much fun to watch!! it's obvious he's also having fun, and to be this stable while also being entertaining to look at is a real feat!

other things I need to talk about:

donghwa

I NEED him to do well!! I've missed him so much, the tension in my body any time a solo trainee stepped through that tunnel only for it to not be him was crazy, my sibling is my witness lmao

they put him all by himself, way up there, and I'm crossing all my fingers, and my toes too, that he doesn't let that add to his nerves but I feel like it's inevitable

his nose is still very pretty, he's wearing a mesh turtleneck, he's doing a song that has bodyrolls..... they put him last in the round-up of trainees that still have to go (way at the end of the ep) so let's hope that's a good thing!!

hangyul, baby. I first met you through a survival show, and I was very thankful for it then. seeing as you didn't debut with the unit, I was also glad to see you in px101. but they messed you over, put something in front of you that was the realization of your dream, only for it to be taken away...

the fact that trainees were like "he was in X1!" damn near put me out. I know that you have a shit label, that they're really just looking for viral moment after viral moment to keep the group in the collective memory. but I also know that this might help you to advance once more, get closer to that realization again.

so now that you're back here, and in a context where I'm able to vote for you, please believe that I will. we'll do our damnedest to not let you down, gyul.

Hi can you please write #20 smut with chani sf9??

Hi, here goes! Thanks for requesting ♡

Chani (SF9) | Sexting smut | 0.8k

It’s been a long and hard day. He’d try to console himself with the fact that it’s only a day before the weekend but his job doesn’t have much regard for those. And he’s so busy the days all blur together at this point anyway so he’s sure he’ll miss the weekend even happening.

All the stress and burden Chani feels weighing down his shoulders has him a little more on edge than usual, not that the others are coping much better. Yet today’s long and hard in a literal sense and that’s not exactly helping with lifting his mood. At least the outfit stylists chose for him today makes hiding it easier.

His phone’s in his hands as soon as their manager announces that they’ll be taking a break after working out some minor details. He knows you usually respond as soon as he texts you, but right now he needs to make sure you’ll text him back immediately when he gets the chance for more conversation than a quick notice that he’d like to talk to you in a couple of minutes.

Not five minutes later they’re granted a break and he excuses himself to the bathroom before his friends can strike up a conversation with him. 

The moment he closes and locks the door behind him, he pulls out his phone again and is pleased to see you’ve been whining for an explanation since he’s texted you. In any other circumstance, he’d roll his eyes but right now he can’t help but think that your neediness is quite cute.

Seriously… You can’t build me up like that and leave me hanging…

His eyebrow twitches. Playing right into his hands, huh?

Don’t be a brat. You’ve never complained about it before.

He watches in amusement as the three dots keep appearing and disappearing. But honestly, he’s not sure if he has enough patience to wait for your response so he sends you another message and finally finds the slightest bit of relief in unzipping his pants and pulling them down just enough to take a photo of the outline of his straining cock and send it to you.

It takes you under a minute to send him a photo with obvious proof of your own desperation. Will you ever stop surprising him?

So needy. He teases, finally allowing himself to slip his hand into his underwear. He almost hisses at the sensation, but he can’t help but imagine it was your hand instead. His phone vibrates.

Says you… I bet you’d be coming so fast if I was there with you.

He’s not great at multitasking, it takes him longer to respond and before he can type out his answer with his free hand, you continue.

I mean we both know how much I love to suck you off

Maybe I’d be good and wouldn’t even touch myself

He groans as he starts stroking the cock in his hand. He lets you run your mouth, fingers, whatever. He doesn’t have that much time and he appreciates you’re not playing around.

Are you desperate?

Because I am

I want to lick all over your dick

You like it when I tease, right?

So you could grab me by my hair and force me to take you aaaaall the way down my throat

His hold gets tighter, a quiet grunt rumbling in his chest. He would love to do that. You’re asking for it but the image of you, so good on your knees with his cock enveloped in the tight heat of your mouth, has him jerking his hand faster. He wants you here. You’d feel so much better than his hand. He can barely focus on the onslaught of texts. 

I’d take you so well

Wouldn’t even use my hands

Just sit there all pretty and let you ruin me

Beg you to give me all your cum

Tears down my face because you’re so big

But I’d still swallow everything 

Every single drop

I’d clean you too 

I can’t get enough

I need you, Chani… Need you to cum for me…

What is it that pushes him over the edge? Is it the image of your tearstained face, ruined mascara and spit everywhere? Is it his little brat being so good and submissive for him? Or is it the memory of how your tongue feels wrapped around his length as you lick the leftover cum?

He all but throws his phone on the nearest surface and barely gets the paper tissues when his high hits and he paints them white. He tries to control his breathing, slowly coming to his senses and realizing where he is. He quickly checks and fixes his outfit before throwing the dirty tissues away and washing his hands.

Thank you, baby. I’ll make it up to you when I get home.

He promises, just in time to pocket his phone again and head back to continue the shoot.

[purpleyellow]

The red wedding

The boyz 12th member

Mae’s masterlist

“Behind Kingdom’s 4th and 5th episodes” 

a/n: Feel free to share your thoughts with me. Requests are open!🧡

Mae watched one by one the cameras turn away from the group, indicating their performance for SF9’s O sole mio was officially done. Looking at the members finally taking big breaths, some huddling around Sangyeon, while others made random comments about what had happened in the middle of it.

“Hey, you did great” Juyeon materialized in front of the girl and pulled her for a hug. And though she knew their tango partner work had gone smoothly, Mae couldn’t share his excitement as she met Sunwoo’s worried expression over Juyeon’s shoulder.

After being heavily encouraged, if not forced, into the introduction/middle dace sections, the girl had hyperfocused into practicing those routines with Juyeon in order for it to turn out nice. That resulted in Mae not working enough on the rapping segment, her and Sunwoo were in charge of. 

And while she hadn’t messed it up in any of the run through. The girl made a noticeable mistake on the actual live version by starting her rap one beat earlier, making the transition from her to Sunwoo way too long and awkward.

“I’m sure it wasn’t that noticeable” Sunwoo approached her while Juyeon was walking away and Mae shook her head, knowing he was saying that only to comfort her.

“They’re going to kill me” Her voice was unsteady by the nervousness.

The creative director had made such a huge deal for Mae to take on the “main” dancer role for once. And with the CEO telling her it would be children’s play to deliver her part. She knew they would be pissed because of a mistake in an area she was known to master.

Feeling like a disappointment, she bit her lips and kept her head low. She started praying that everyone would ignore her teary eyes, while simultaneously thinking about the scolding she might get afterwards.

“Are you actually crying or is it an act” Hyunjae playfully bumped hips with her and gave her a side hug. The girl glared his way, ready to shove him away when he resumed speaking, “It was a dumb mistake. I doubt many people will catch on to it”.

“It’s so stupid” She sniffed annoyed, “I know I could have done it perfectly”

“You did so much more today. That opening was so intense and you killed it. Don’t let one small detail mess up this achievement” Rubbing her arm, Hyunjae guided them into the hallway.

The Mnet staff urged her and Sangyeon to do their interviews first, since they seemed the most shaken up. So, after they were both done, it was just them waiting for the rest of the members to arrive at the dressing room.

“It could have happened to anyone, you know. Don’t stress about it” Sangyeon gave her a sort of convincing smile, making Mae rest her head on his shoulder.

Sighing, she held his hand and asked, “What did you even do? I only saw the boys trying to comfort you”.

“The torch didn’t catch on fire” Also sighing, he rolled his head back.

“At least that wasn’t your fault. It had a fifty-fifty chance of working” The girl tried to console him, but instead he laughed ironically.

“If we’re talking about probabilities, everything has a fifty-fifty chance of going right or wrong”

“I’m not the best at math, but I’m pretty sure that’s wrong. Because, you see, if I had practiced more, the chance of me getting the timing right would have increase. But I’m pretty sure you can’t train fire to light up at the right time, so you were totally up for probability”.

Letting go of her hand, Sangyeon’s frown indicated his concern, “I think we should stop our pity party because you’re starting to sound insane”

☆.。.:・°☆.。.:・°☆.。.:*・°☆

Sitting back at the stage, Mae tried her best to hide her disappointment as the ranking got updated and The Boyz dropped from second place to last. Their scores being the same as before, exposing they had not gotten a single vote from the other groups.

She gave a tight smile to TVXQ’s Changmin, the MC, when he looked over to check their reactions. Then proceeded to look ahead with a blank stare. At that point, Mae just wanted to go home, sit around in her dissatisfaction for some minutes before going back to work as if she wasn’t actually sad.

“It’s okay. We’ll work harder next time” Jacob whispered from her side and she nodded to him.

At the moment that segment finished, all the groups had to go back to their waiting rooms and wait for one final interview round.

Walking silently, Mae sends a couple of waves and smiles to the other groups, occasionally throwing a congratulation when it seemed fit. When she was passing by Stray Kids, Minho casually walked to her side, following her back into the hallway.

“I’m sorry” He humbled apologetic.

Rolling her eyes, Mae scoffed, “Sorry for what? We’re in this shit show together, it’s not like you sent me to war and sat around watching it”.

“She’s not making much sense today, please excuse her” Sangyeon laughed, walking quicker than they were and quickly passing them.

“Also, don’t make it obvious” Bang Chan pointed at them and followed behind the other leader, making both Mae and Minho scoff.

The boy shrugged, still walking slowly, and pulled her closer to the side, so they weren’t in the middle of the path “Well, going back to what I was saying. I’m sorry for not voting for you guys”.

“I don’t expect you to vote for my group just because we’re dating” Mae said matter-of-factly.

Feeling like he was walking on thin ice, Minho frowned, “You don’t?”

“Nah. I wouldn’t vote for us either, not after I blew it up and messed up the rapping”.

“You did?” He made an exaggerated surprised face, making Mae squint. Smiling embarrassed, Minho continued, “I kind of noticed it when it happened, sorry. But this kind of stuff happens-”

“I know. Thanks for the pep talk, now go back to your group” The girl pushed his arm and pointed at the rest of Stray kids, who were now all gathered near the interview room.

“You’re really not mad?” He started walking but turned around to check on her one last time.

“I’m not”  Rolling her eyes, she thought for a second before confessing “I’m mad at myself but whatever”

“Mae” In a scolding tone, he got ready for another lecture, but the girl turned him around and pushed him towards his group.

“You need to go, the staff is staring at us weirdly”

The Kingdom situation : the points are a mess

I personally haven’t seen any posts about this issue (tho ofc I’ve seen tons of ppl dissing and insulting mnet, and rightfully so). The rankings need to be addressed. Yes we are all happy to see our idols perform, yes at the end of the day we shouldn’t focus on the rankings and just enjoy the experience (awesome performances and cute interactions) HOWEVER can we seriously sit a second and acknowledge that it is now almost IMPOSSIBLE for the bottom 3 to ever go up the rankings ? The top 3 are too far ahead ? Preuve à l’appui with the results before round 3:

SKZ : 8495 pts

Ateez :  7720 pts

BTOB : 6283 pts

Ikon : 5723 pts

SF9 : 5392 pts

TBZ : 5384 pts

Before the groups for round 3 were even formed they somehow already existed ? Between the 6th and the 4th there is only a 339 point difference while between the 4th and the 3rd it’s 560 point ! simply preposterous ! I know Ateez chose their team but you won’t convinced me mnet did not meddle in it in some regards.

It was ridiculous enough that the top 3 would compete against the bottom 3 but with the points they have now gained, the competition is basically only between them. Preuve à l’appui n°2 :

SKZ : 13495

Ateez : 12720

BTOB : 11283

Ikon : 5723

SF9 : 5392

TBZ : 5384

Even if Ikon doubled their points they would barely catch up with BTOB (5723x2 = 11446) and I don’t see how they could possibly double their points.

Anyway, all of this to say I hate mnet. Much love to all the boys, I just feel sorry for It’s One at this point TT.TT

I would really like to get opinions about this : do you agree ? Or not ? Please talk to me <3

now that i've sufficently irked everybody by their inability to read, who's ready for:

my favourite stylings, part two!!

there was a really strong start to 2021 in the early months, but boy howdy did shit pick up quick in the back half of the year. if you thought my first half was long well. i hate to break it to you but i think this one is longer. it was also harder to weed through for the top ten overall stylings, because there really was SO many

---

best overall styling

key - bad love

this was everything i've ever wanted and more. hate that was an incredibly pre release that really set up the eyefeel for how this comeback was gonna look and i could not be more pleased. there's so much attention to detail and love in this entire comeback and the fact that they extended it all the way to the packaging design is just an extra cherry on top. the shifting silhouettes of the outfits depending on what sond is being performed and how that fits with the choreography (big exaggerated shoulder pads and shoulder moves for bad love) and all the uniquely key takes on all the popular trends (mullets, crop tops, cowboy, y2k) and all the small details in everything is just so satisfying. i love this styling so much, it's my top one this year.

fave stages; all of them but: mcountdown 210930, inkigayo 211003, music core 211009. also helium: music bank 211001, yellow tape: inkigayo 211003, and this performance from pickcon 211114

+

do hanse - blaze

i'm including as the whole of the comeback because it was technically a digital release and he only did one music show stage, but as i'm sure you remember this blew my fucking brains out. it still blows my fucking brains out. they fact that they shot the mv in one studio with just a white cyclorama and a load of props + set dec is insane. also neon milk!?!?! i wish i had more coherent thoughts about this but the reality is that every time i see a stage my brain just goes 'brrrrrrrrr'.

here's a slew of stages for you: take over special live stage, mcountdown special stage 210930, public enemy live clip, public enemy its live, public enemy comeback stage.

+

oneus - luna

this is easily one of the best and most beautiful contemporary handbok concepts to come out of the current trend. there is so much care and attention to detail in the production design and the styling and the choreography that it's just a visual feast. everything looks so good. i'm so glad this is what got them their first win. fave stages: the show 211123, inkigayo 211114, music bank 211112, music core 211113, music bank 211119, music core 211120, music core 211127, inkigayo 211128, the show 211130.

+

sf9 - teardrop

we all knew it was going to be here. sf9's revenge arc was one of the best underdog stories this year and the planning and payoff that went into teardrop was so worth it. really loved that they went (at least in the mv and some of the promo materials) with a norse mythology concept, which i don't think i've seen from a kpop group before? it's definitely not very common at least. this is easily one of the most interesting and experimental mvs from this year as well. we all saw the music show stages. here's some faves: inkigayo 210718, music core 210710, music core 210717, show champion 210714, inkigayo 210711.

+

hyuna&dawn - ping pong

not a surprise inclusion either. it's a controversial styling for sure but both hyuna and dawn have really concrete understandings of how fashion, and particularly couture + luxury branding, work. they both worked a lot with their stylist on this and some of the outfits are not even 'real' designer, they're remade from other cut up designer garmants (i think hyuna posted something on ig showing her cutting up a branded wallet to make a bra). i love kitsch and i've talked about how hyuna uses aesthetics before, but i really do love how the both of them are not afraid to just look weird. plus the way that they purposefully take luxury branding and make it look tacky is so much more effective than any attempt by luxury brands themselves to do the same. fave stages: relay dance, mcountdown 210916, music bank 210917, music core 210925.

+

monsta x - rush hour

honestly this is my favourite mx comeback since love killa. i like gambler as a song but the styling for it lacked any real distinctive visual flair and although there were a few cool things, i much prefer the talladega nights energy of rush hour. unfortunately it does also feature that patterned black and white suit that hoshi used in spider that i really don't like, but i'm overlooking it here because it's really the only thing i have a complaint about. i really love that they've commited to consistently using the steadicam as a directional element and i love how they've tied the intro into it as well. fave stages: music core 211120, music core 211127, music bank 211126, music bank 211119, inkigayo 211121, inkigayo 211128.

+

cl - alpha

like with blaze, i'm including this as a whole ep because even though i'm of a mixed mind on spicy, the rest of this album is SO good. cl has a really good stylist who's apparently good enough to get her to the met gala (as one of the only people who understood the theme this year) and the mvs were just banger after banger. lover like me is my favourite but close second is tie a cherry and then let it (stages: tie a cherry music bank 211022/inkigayo 211024, lover like me sketchbook 211022). i really really love that some of her looks were very clearly art deco/1920s inspired because boy does she pull it off well but i'm a huge sucker for deco fashion it's one of my all time fave eras. i'm also absolutely cuckoo for cocoapuffs over the live performance video; this is what i wanted from performance videos in the pandemic. incredible outfits in unconventional venues with good creative lighting. if you've got 13 minutes i'd recommend it.

+

aespa - savage + dreams come true

this is likely be controversial inclusion but i don't care. i've mentioned before a couple of times how i liked how sm was setting up aespa as the redux of first gen kpop techno orientalism and i did not expect that observation to pay off so literally in terms of the dreams come true remaster. i'm smashing it together with savage because the aesthetics are basically the same and this is the most successful iteration of that egirl y2k pseudo goth type revival that all the zoomers are into right now. it's over the top and the shapes are so weird and interesting, especially regarding the lower half of the body, whic is not super common with styling for female idols. yea yea the avatars could use some work but i'm really not all that fussed about it since they aren't really using them a whole lot. sm should definitely contact riot though if they want to do better. fave stages: music core 211016, inkigayo 211024, mcountdown 211014.

+

purple kiss - zombie

purple kiss my beloved. this mv is just so cute and fun and they have such an extensive and varied styling for it and 95% of it are hits. also rbw is doing a great job of styling them within their age limits (the oldest is a 97 but their youngest is an 03). plus the combination of the fact that this is an excellent song and even better ep AND the fact that this is literally their first comeback (this girls debuted in march 2021!!!!), what's not to love. i'm really excited to see where they go next and they were my fave girl group debut this year. also the boy in the mv is cya from onewe. fave stages: mcountdown 210909, inkigayo 210912, mcountdown 210916, music bank 210924.

+

woodz - waiting

i hope johnny knows that he changed my life when he released 'that man is my girl' into the universe. because this man. he is my girl. woodz has had a very clear style this year and i love that you can see the consistency between waiting and feel like. also we love a long haired boy, even if it is extensions. the mv is great and the live clips from the ep are so good, especially the one for chaser. fave stages: inkigayo 211017, music core 211009, mcountdown 211007, the show 211012.

---

runners' up

nct 127 - sticker

i'm a sticker apologist and you can fight me about it if you want but you absolutely cannot change my mind that this mv looks so good. i finally got the real yeehaw trend that i wanted and there are so many fun and funny details in this mv that it's a shame people wrote this song off so fast. the colour palette is really strong and well utilized especially because it's quite broad and very bright. honestly the stages are where the performance shines but i didn't always love the styling so that's why i bumped it down to runner up. also i really really loved the concept photos:

+

blitzers - will make a mistake

another baby group that debuted in 2021 back with a really strong first comeback in the fall. i was not expecting to like this so much but i actually love this song. the mv is fine but the stages are SO much fun and spoiler alert: this is one of my favourite choreos from this year. but i really did lose my mind watching the stages because a big chunk of their styling was loverboy, which is one of my favourite designers. you can see two full suits and a sweater here (sya at 0.19, jinhwa at 0.29, chris at 0.43), more here (juhan at beginning (sweater), go u at 0.15 (full suit), jinhwa at 0.30 (full)), and more here (go u (jacket)). also i just really love the chaos of the styling; other stages i really like include the show 211019 and of course the halloween version which is SO cute. the bside they promoted with is also really cute and their group branding and marketing design is very different from any other boy group i've seen this year. do i like them because they have big theatre kid energy and remind me of my first year of undergrad and this is all stuff i would wear? perhaps, i'll never tell.

+

epik high - face id

i'm obsessed with how gnarly the graphics are in this mv. also it's a digipedi production so obviously it's good. i know people like to debate if epik high is kpop or not but tablo himself said his account was the best kpop account on twitter so what are you gonna do, argue with tablo?? anyways their mvs are good and this is no exception.

+

e'last - dark dream

e'last is the only group upholding the styling traditions of early third gen and i applaud their commitment. and they debuted during the pandemic, which is even more impressive. honestly this was borderline in the best overall category but the mv, although good, is pretty typical for a kpop mv so i didn't end up bumping it up. here's some of my fave crop tops stages: mcountdown 211007, music core 211009, inkigayo 211010, show champion 211013. OH and then they came in a month later promoting the bside to.lie with the MOST whoville looking concept i've ever seen from a boy group. i need you to look at yejun's avocado bag. it's extremely important. literally, the duality.

+

ten - paint me naked

in general i really like the mv and especially the second half of it with the paint rain, but honestly my favourite outfit wasn't even in the mv, it was this white denim printed suit from the play colour stage. obviously i also love the chainmail tank and the louis vuitton checkerboard suit (from the same collection as taemin's advice shirt) and the painted leather jacket with the jeans with his name across the crotch (the mv version with the beret is cuter but i will take the exchange for the fuschia chrome spike plug circa 2013). i like that it was a lot more playful that we were expecting from the title and it's nice to see him be a bit more free and not railroaded into the cool aloof dancer he has been.

+

sunmi - you can't sit with us

this mv is incredible. honestly i don't think any one else will be able to nail the nostalgia goggles y2k aesthetic as well as sunmi does here. the production design is phenomenal, the fight choreo is phenomenal, it's sunmi, what more do you want? the stages were fine but god this mv is just so good and the concept is purposefully very cinematically referential so it makes sense that they just didn't hit the same. although i did love the lil flair move that that one backup dance had at the end of the choreo (which they never showed on any music shows because they were always up close on her face). also incredible that we got two short film quality level mvs with bone fide fight choreography this year.

+

changmin - human

ok so this one is cheating because it's technically a japanese release but it's my list so i can break the rules when i want to. absolutely love the narrative of this mv and as soon as you put fish and cyber stuff in something i automatically have to love it. i'm very easy to win over. also i think this is my most watched mv this year because i spent SO long scrubbing through it to find good reference images for those drawings i did for hanya and jenny.....

onf - goosebumps

they did not do nearly enough stages for this but also it was their last comeback before enlisting/the holidays and i respect them for giving us one last incredible hurrah. same praises as beautiful beautiful; their vfx team is fucking fantastic because this mv is literally all greenscreened with the exception of a couple of segments in a white cube studio. they are the only group that's able to pull this level of vfx off and i hope that company holds onto that artist for dear life while the boys are away. highlight outfits are these ones for play colour, we love a good full patent look.

ateez - the real

obviously i've liked the real since they dropped it as their finale stage for kingdom, but i did not expect that we were gonna get a full comeback with it right at the end of the year when they've already had such a busy year. the stages are ok but i LOVE the energy and the look of the mv, which isn't a surprise because it's digipedi. the scale of this is absolutely befitting of ateez's achievements this year and i hope they get a break before they go off on their world tour. i do really dig the styling of the inkigayo 211212 stage too.

+

kai - peaches

the song itself was a disappointment because the styling and production design really is SO good. i have a longer post about it in the works so you'll be able to get my more extended thoughts there, but there was one outfit that i didn't like and i hated the outfits for domino, so that's why this doesn't make the best overall category.

xdinary heroes - happy death day

as we now know, jype is probably to lose day6 once their contracts and service are up, so they've debuted another kband. the song is probably controversial to some people but i think it's fun and i am a HUGE fan of the shinee dream girl era plaid clown suits. i notoriously hate the jype stylists because they suck at their jobs but they get one (1) right for those. looking forward to whatever else these guys do. also absolutely only tangentally related but the happy death day movies slap and you should watch them.

+

sf9 - trauma

obviously this one was gonna make it on here somewhere, but i didn't rank it as highly as teardrop because only half of them at any given point were dressed in something i liked. BUT it did contain a lot of really really really good individual looks that i talked about in this post here. also this answer here where i talk about my favourite taeyang look. my only parting thoughts are: tiddies.

+

nct 127 - earthquake

this is just a track video and they didn't actually promote it because it was a part of nct 2021 but i LOVE the styling here, especially the pseudo punk outfits.

standout element

btob - outsider inkigayo 210904

i am mad at how good eunkwang looks here. i hate it. i love it. also don't talk to me about minhyuk and his sheer shirt over a tank and bootcut trousers and 2" cuban heels. honestly this outfit lives rent free in my brain and it just goes to show that you don't always gotta be dripping in sparkles to look good. i know they make the girlies dance in heels all the time but come on boys. step it up. if minhyuk can do it so can you. also the red suit and split dye look great on peniel. outsider is just a really great song and the mv and stages were so fun but this one stood out the most to me.

+

nct 127 - favourite mood sampler

not much of the energy of this showed up in the favourite promos which is a shame because favourite was underwhelmingly styled. there was a stage of these outfits, but otherwise the stages were pretty boring stylistically, despite it being an extremely strong repackage title track and album. but this was the year of strong sm teaser trailers and lackluster followup, so.

+

cix - bad dream the show 210907 and show champion 210908

this is mostly here to further my cix agenda because this bside is so good but also seunghun's outfits. you'll see them. actually all the outfits for the show champion stage hit but you'll see what i mean.

+

wonho - come over tonight mcountdown 211014 + music core 211016

obviously wonho is always tiddies out whenever possible but i did not think he would be tiddies out in his david byrne era. i'm not complaining, but it certainly was surprising.

+

park hyunho - this suit, money money money

anyone who feels like clowning me for including a trot singer here, need i remind you that you are the one reading my post about my opinions, and if i think he's cute and i like his song and his fancy lil suit then that's the end of that. also he is technically an idol so fight me.

+

2pm - with me again

again, cheating a bit because it's a japanese release but the suits at 0.30 (and various other timecodes) are really beautiful pieces of tailoring and in general this mv looks so good. also we did NOT talk about mechanical-bull-riding chansung enough. or at all, frankly.

+

ateez - deja vu

i'm still in my grudge era against the kq stylists but i really liked the deja vu stylings for music bank 210907 (bedazzled leather), music bank 210924 (corsets), and inkigayo 210926 (honestly i'm not sure but it looks good).

+

the boyz - maverick

i like the mv and and i wasn't impressed with the styling overall but i do like the music core 211113 stage, because it is a good example of how this current trend of eboy tactical can actually work in conjunction with the concept. am i saying that more boy groups need to be put in battle royale situations? maybe.

---

ok! anyone who @'d me about not realizing yesterday's was only part one are you happy now? that's it for my fave stylings of 2021! i'm gonna do a bonus round of fave stylings/stages from the awards shows because why not, that will be either tomorrow or the day after depending on what i feel like finishing typing first. and it won't be as long either, i'll probably limit it to top ten or fifteen because this is. so long. there really was a lot of good stuff in the second half of the year. on to 2022!!
