✧Cupid✧

Nakamura Kazuha x Le Sserafim! 00' Liner! F reader: Your addition to Le Sserafim was unexpected and so sudden that even the other members weren't prepared. It took a while for you to feel comfortable, but Kazuha was able to help you open up.

Word Count: 2k

Warning: This talks about the bullying scandal; there isn't much.

Inspiration: ➼ Cupid by FIFTY FIFTY

Note: Bold= English, Italics= Japanese. A little something short before the next Bada fic... may post it in a bit.

Character Vision Board

In 2022, HYBE was preparing to debut its first girl group. This caused a massive uproar in the K-pop community as the company was already rising due to the many acquisitions. The former IZ*one members were signing, and now the bullying scandal.

As much as debuting under a massive company was terrific, it came with enormous backlash. The upper ends of HYBE entertainment were still trying to figure out what to do; they were getting publicity from the scandal, but the girl's images were also important.

The company's solution for this is adding a member a month before Le Sserafim's official debut. HYBE was aware these rumors would likely lead to the removal of the young girl, so they needed some backup. Even though HYBE and Somu had difficulty finding the perfect girl, HYBE reluctantly gave one of their top Japanese contenders to Source Music.

Nakashima Y/n, the Japanese-American trainee who had been in Big Hit trainee since September 2018. The agency took her in the right after her elimination from Produce 48 and made sure she became one of their best trainees.

With your experience in freestyle, underground dance competitions, and even personal vocal lessons since age 4, Bang PD didn't waste any time and contacted you. Once HYBE became a thing, the company needed help creating a team with a similar skill set to yours.

So to help cater to you, they moved you to HYBE Japan, and while mixing and matching girls, you were supposed to debut by the end of 2023. That unexpectedly changed when you were called back to Korea. You were clueless and weren't told why they wanted to speak to you at the main building, but without question, you went.

You were led through the large building and made your way to a meeting room. When opening the door, you were met with confused eyes. Everyone in the room wore masks, so you couldn't recognize anyone, well, everyone but one.

"Sakura-unnie?" Amongst the girls, her eyes were the most recognizable, making Sakura's head tilt in confusion.

"Please take a seat," The concept director gestures to the seat next to Sakura, who was a bit skeptical with you next to her, not recognizing anything about you.

"In recent events, everyone on the board has decided to add a new member last minute. Which is where she comes in," she points at you, and as confused as you were, you got the gist of everything and just accepted the new change that was about to occur. "Please introduce yourself to them."

"Ah, Hello," you bow, "My name is Nakashima Y/n; please take care of me." Some of the girl's eyes go wide,

"Y/n-unnie?"

"Wha~ you recognized me with the mask on?" Sakura says, bringing you into a hug, "I'll always recognize Japan's most famous idol."

When you tease her, she playfully hits you, "Ah, Y/n, you remember Yunjin and Chaewon, right?"

"Of course, I'll always remember my produce girls," Yunjin and Chaewon laugh at the girl while giving a welcoming hug. "Y/n, these are the other girls on our team Hong Eunchae, Kim Garam, and Nakamura Kazuha."

Y/n greets the three, and when meeting Kazuha's gaze, you surprisedly say, "Another Japanese member? Cool." Kazuha was pleasantly shocked at the sudden Japanese, but it made her happy knowing there was another member that could make her feel more at home.

"Due to the changes, you guys will have to redo shoots, whether choreography parts in the music video, concept photos, or anything else. So prepare for the upcoming 3 weeks because everyone will be busy. We apologize for the inconvenience, girls; it must be done."

The next day, Y/n had to record her parts for multiple songs on the Fearless album, and nearing the end of the day, she had to do her concept photos and videos. At 5 am, she even had to go to the company to meet the choreographer and learn all the dances for only 4 hours.

You come back visibly tired. Your hair was disheveled, clothes were heavily wrinkled, and makeup was smudging off. You found Kazuha eating some yogurt while watching TV in the living room. "Um, unnie, there is food... in the fridge," Kazuha told her while switching from Korean to English as she struggled to find the words. "Hey, if you're having issues with Korean, you can talk to me in Japanese, and I can help you learn."

Kazuha's head snapped towards you and gave you a thankful smile, "Sure, do you want to join me, or are you too tired? I don't want to bother you."

A hopeless romantic all my life Surrounded by couples all the time I guess I should take it as a sign

"Sure, I'm not too tired. Let me just shower first," you tell her and head toward your room, showering, doing your face routine, and coming back to Kazuha looking refreshed.

You sit next to Kazuha with a bowl of salad and a simple turkey sandwich. "So, how was your day? I heard they make you learn Blue Flame and Fearless, then made you record for almost every song."

"Correction, it was all the songs AND photoshoots, but I managed," you joked with the girl, but she seemed a little worried. "Are you sure your okay, unnie? That's a lot?"

"I'll be okay, Zuha; I just need to get this over with so I can rest a little before the showcase," you reassured the younger. You two sat in silence for a bit, but then a thought came to mind, "Zuha, is it true you did ballet?"

"Oh, yeah, I did it for most of my life and went to ballet school in the Netherlands."

Your jaw dropped, "What made you switch professions then?"

Kazuha thought for a second, "a change of pace." You found the simple answer quite surprising, "and you've only trained for 3 months?" The ballerina nods, making your eyes go wide.

"Vocal training must be tiring for you. No?"

"Well..." Before the two girls knew it, they were talking for hours.

I'm feelin' lonely (Lonely) Oh, I wish I'd find a lover that could hold me (Hold me) Now I'm crying in my room So skeptical of love (Say what you say, but I want it more) But still, I want it more, more, more

There was a week left before the debut showcase, and you found yourself becoming mentally exhausted slowly. On certain nights, you cried in silence, though not knowing why.

You were someone who trained in the industry for over 9 years, and now that the opportunity is knocking on your door, you decide to cry? After a sleepless night, you realize it was due to the staggering workload in a short period.

For you, joining this group was a blessing, but beginning to become a curse. You sat silently in the HYBE dance studio and just stared at the wall. The team was working on final practices before the big day. Even though you were extremely capable, the past few weeks were catching up to your body.

You were getting tired 10 times quicker than before, and your breathing was disturbingly intense, which caused the group to take multiple breaks so you won't pass out.

"Unnie, you need to stay home tomorrow," Kazuha tells her as she sits beside the worn-out girl. "I guess I do need a break," you smiled weakly, leaning your head on her shoulder. "I knew it was difficult, but it feels like... my body is slowly dying," you whisper in Japanese to Zuha.

The younger girl listens, resting her head on top of yours. Kazuha noticed how you ranted about your feelings, which helped you tremendously. "I mean, I've been doing this for years, Zuha, training for almost as long as Kura-unnie's idol career, yet once I'm here, I somehow get weaker."

"Unnie," the ballerina becomes stern due to her self-degrading words. "You aren't weak or getting weaker; you're just exhausted."

"I mean, who wouldn't be in your shoes," Zuha mumbles. She was correct; you were even doing it made Kazuha believe you were one of the strongest and most mentally driven people she knew.

I gave a second chance to Cupid But now I'm left here feelin' stupid Oh, the way he makes me feel that love isn't real Cupid is so dumb

It was a few hours after the comeback showcase, and it was clear that all of your hard work paid off. You felt the audience's love and were happy with the results you showed.

"Zuha, you did amazing out there today," you say as she comes into your room, cuddling into your warm body. The two of you began to become close together and felt safe as you guys were almost always together 95% of the time. "If I did good, you did insane, unnie. Can you teach me how to dance like that?" You laugh and tell her, 'Of course,' even though she was a fantastic dancer.

"I mean, I will, but you have cleaner angles than me when dancing, Zuha, so you have to teach me as well." You two pinky promised, and it warmed your heart.

"Zuha."

"Yes, unnie?"

"You ever think about falling in love with someone while being in an industry as strict as this one?" She tells you, "I mean, I do at times, but I don't usually overthink about it. Why?"

"I liked some people in the idol industry, and they all lead to the same things."

"And that is?"

"Heartbreak," you mumble, but she hears it. It made you think, should you even tell Zuha that she felt like home to you and that you loved her for it?

'That is probably the worst idea you ever came up with, Y/n,' you told yourself.

The promotions were going reasonably well until there was a stage with major sound issues, causing the stage to have almost little to no backing track. Some members did okay, including yourself, but the girls with weaker areas in vocals and less training were freaking out in the waiting room.

"Guys, no need to worry too much; it was our first live vocal performance." Yunjin tried to reassure them, but Eunchae, who was in tears, explained, "No matter the first, second, third, one-hundredth stage and no matter if they take our training periods into consideration, they will still hate it."

Sakura sat in the corner of the room. She's had her fair share of those comments in IZ*one, so she knew the maknae was correct. "Just because you weren't stable while dancing doesn't mean we can't sing. It means we must work harder to do better," you tell the girls.

"People progress at different paces; you can't beat yourselves up for it," as you kept talking, Zuha cuddled her sad self next to you, and you tried to rub her arm in the hug, doing your best to comfort the girl. "And you did well for someone who has only trained for 3 months. You should be proud of what you've accomplished today, Zuha."

You mumbled, and it caused the ballerina to hug you tighter than before, tears welling up in her eyes, "Thanks, unnie."

The group was leaving and going home, and during the car ride, Zuha asked her unnie, "Can I sleep over tonight?" You nodded, as the two of you often did this.

At the dorms, you, Sakura, and Kazuha disperse to your rooms feeling mentally drained.

Once Zuha changed, you two decided to sleep and rest rather than begin overthinking. As you feel that Zuha is asleep. You turn over to face her. "You did amazing, ZuhaI. I hope you know that. I'll always love and protect you no matter what happens," you whisper to yourself as you fall into a deep sleep.

But you didn't know that Kazuha was completely awake and smiled, facing her body towards you as well, "I love you too, unnie," leaving a slight peck on her cheek as she cuddled your body, drifting off to sleep.

American Royalty. Epilogue.

A Homelander x F! Reader/Dadlander fic

A/N: Here's the epilogue hope y'all enjoy this last entry, it meant a lot to write this I just can't get enough of Dadlander fics, I hope S4 inspires me to write more dadlander fics or fics were I can put reader-chan or OCs as his spouse-- will post part 2 of the masterlist and update my pin post soon.

Epilogue

American Royalty

Homelander hurried downstairs, fighting with his tie as he rushed to the breakfast table, throwing the red string by the foot of the stairs in frustration, just stopping shyly by a mirror to make sure his hair was nicely combed, his phone buzzing in his back pocket– probably another missed call from an executive or Ashley about the upcoming shareholders meeting.

Forks and plates clink downstairs, as he makes his way past the kitchen where one of the maids is cleaning dirty pans, spotting the back of your head as you serve Ryan some juice.

“Good morning, uncle.” Said Elmo sitting on Homelander’s spot.

“Hello kid that doesn’t live here but still eats for free!”

“Father!”

“Good Morning, princess.”

He was quick to wrap his arm on your waist and kiss your temple, pulling a chair as he smoothly disarms himself from you.

He stares at Elmo who at the tender age of 15 is the same height as Homelander, he’s a muscular teen, a perfect 80’s movie jock even wearing a varsity jacket, his superhero suit a perfect match to Helena’s.

Her jacket hanging on her chair and massively oversized, a puffy bomber jacket only achieving to dwarf her small frame�� it’s a strong red, and the inside liner it's made out of Homelander’s own cape, her suit tight on her with a red X framing her chest something that had now began to bother her father, her shortie gloves laid next to her coffee, Elmo's was black with a white X on his chest.

Helena and Elmo were an odd match but that was part of the duet's charm, with her stuck at 1.55 cm in height while he was already 1.85 cm and growing, she was skinny and her hair slightly longer just past her shoulders, her bangs still blocking her eyes.

But as she lifted her face away from her tablet, he was welcomed by a beautiful young girl, Helena had everything that made you beautiful, like a majestic peony– she had blossomed to perfection, so pretty he would rub it in people’s faces about just how pretty his daughter was, even the dark circles under her eyes added character to her features.

Elmo was a handsome boy and a concern, even if your daughter insisted she had no interest in the tall muscular teen, Homelander had begun to remind himself every so often that he couldn’t harm the child, he couldn’t scare him to keep him in line, for fear that Helena would lash back at him if he touched her best friend.

“No tie?”

“Don’t start princess, now eat something, we got an incredibly long day ahead lots of last minutes meetings–

“It's breakfast!” You interrupted taking a seat by his side– no work talk until you get to the office!”

He took a sip of his milk, turning to Ryan who was in an unspoken competition with Elmo about who could eat the most waffles– Ryan had grown to a handsome young man, a light stubble on his cheeks as he tried to look more mature, his hair messy, still in his pajamas which made Homelander’s eyebrow raise... somehow in this state it reminded him of Butcher specially with the growing beard.

“Excited about today?”

“A bit nervous” He chewed quickly, covering his mouth to speak– but am certain I won’t make a fool of myself in the interview”

“You will not fail the university admission interview. Godolkin would be suicidal to reject the son of Vought CMO and the brother of the Senior Vice president of research and development.” He smiles– Besides I basically pa–

“Maybe he wants to feel as if he got into Godolkin on his own!” You interjected– Ryan has been a tremendous hero, saved dozens of people and has done everything to stand on his own. You’ll do great Ryan. I’ll be there for you and so will Genevieve.”

You look to your side, her face covered in maple syrup.

She looked up, her long white hair it’s all puffy and a tad frizzy, short bangs on her forehead pushed back and her thick glasses sliding down as she tries wiping the sticky syrup off her lips, you check that her beige dress isn’t dirty.

“You’re going to take care of your big brother today aren’t you, my dove.” John said with his sweetest voice– gotta help him out when daddy is not around.”

He took a long sip of his milk, he looked past you just to get a good glimpse of his small daughter.

Genevieve had unsurprisingly been born just as different as she was extraordinary, her condition had been a source of concern at first– her vision quite poor, her skin sensitive to the sun and her eyes hurt under any harsh light but the V in her system had kept those ailments in check even if she was quick to sunburn it would heal within a day.

It had worried you as she stopped being baby, as she began to waddle towards her father that somehow Joh would cease to see his precious daughter and instead some sort genetic disappointment.

But John had adored her, every milestone was met with adulation and praise, everything he had missed with the other two he was experiencing them with Genevieve, both glued to the other’s hip, she was more than a clingy child, she refused to leave his side as a baby and a toddler-- at times she would even cried harder when hungry because she had to part her father’s side in order to feed, angry that it was you who was responsible for that… eventually you both learned it was easy to get her to latch if he was also feeding with her (for Homelander insisted on breastfeeding and no bottle) you could accuse him of being improper if he wasn’t cooing and falling asleep with your nipple in his mouth, his eyes fully glazed and his mind somewhere else, it made for an odd sight but you both didn't want broken eardrums plus it was somewhat soothing.

You jokingly teased to get him a bra with a baby bottle just to make it easier for her– as her cries every once in a while would break the glassware, he briefly considered before thinking it was too much… despite that, her clinginess brought him no grief, those 7 months he stayed home had brought a side of him you’ve never imagine he possessed, he was sweet and gentle, extremely attentive with her… the guilt on his face whenever he did something with Genevieve that he hadn’t done with Ryan and Helena would wear him down– forcing himself to part from the baby to spend time with them as much as he could, your kids went to faraway places, overseas lunches, art galleries anything they wanted just to make sure he wasn’t neglectful… only to get home and immediately remove his little dove from your arms and place her on his chest, sniffing on her hair as if he was doing lines.

By the time you both went back to work she would only really spend time in Vought’s daycare when Ashley, Ashley’s at the time fiancee or Helena’s PA weren’t available for when he wasn’t able to have her on her arms, eventually nobody minded that he had a baby in his arms, she attended meetings that Helena had no interest in and even those she did alongside her big sister, much to your daughter’s annoyance.

Everything Genevieve did made him fluster and blush, his cheeks and eyes hurting from how much smiling he did, when her first word were ‘dada’ he was born anew, you remember that afternoon as you tried to clean her diaper while he pester you to do it correctly while unable to do it himself– he hadn’t left her alone for the rest of the week just wanting to get to speak more and more, he was heartbroken when he missed her first step but got it recorded from Ryan.

She loved the new cat he’d bought for Helena for her birthday and for a while the two had a one-sided feud for his daughters affections, even more so for his little dove love who seemed utterly fascinated by the hairless goblin.

With every year his children spend with him– he grew softer and domestic, something you’ve never anticipated.

And a part of you grew more wicked as you were too happy that Ryan began to call you mom, you weren’t ‘Miss anything’ or Y/N anymore, once you found yourself cuddling him and running down the streets to not miss his school events, or staying till late to help him with a science project you were more than enthused when you realized you had become a normal family, he was your boy too.

You had grown to like this life just as much as he did.

The day he hung the cape he hurt as much as you thought he would.

Homelander had died but he did not.

He bore his scars both as a reminder of that final battle with William Butcher… a painful victory, but of proof that he had survived to see his children grow.

His face had been scarred– starting from his forehead, crossing his lips and chin to make it down to his neck.

The destruction of his face had broken him but as he saw that none of his children cared for his injury, only that he was alive and Genevieve would never knew anything else, it made it not just bearable but okay. It had been a hard road, a messy road but here he was still working at Vought, still running things and frightening every soul both above and below his station, finding his talents in Hero management taking Stillwell’s former position soon after then heading the marketing department as of two years ago.

You on the other hand had become co-owner of Lucci, after a second restaurant was opened– a more contemporary casual italian joint still serving award winning pizza but now more contemporary italian fair, part of the success had been the quality and ambiance but being Homelander’s wife did brought a fair amount of foot traffic to your restaurants– it was far from what you’ve hoped to achieve but you had a business, away from Vought’s Tower after that little accident that cost Homelander his face nearly destroyed the company.

But like the flu, it came back the next season just the same.

“So ‘The Watch’ got the green light for being debuted at the shareholder’s meeting, the rest of the team arrived last night after that fuck up with United… and we have hours of photoshoots today” Elmo said as he read his father’s message.

Even with the events that took Homelander’s cape it did not kill his worth to the company, his children now carried the burden to live up to the legacy, which meant continuing with the superhero business.

Nigel had become your daughter’s manager and with Homelander as the one running the department it was a guarantee success, Helena had cared very little about the job, only doing the tag-team work to make you and Homelander happy, to her it was only worth it as just another way to keep her foot in as many aspects of her company as she could juggle.

Tragically she had to work as a Supe and you could tell how much she hated it by the grimace she was trying to hide.

“I just said no work… that includes you Elmo.”

“Sorry Ms. Gillman but Dad won’t stop messaging me.”

Homelander looked at his phone staring at a pic of the final line-up after they arrived to the airport, proud of his selection, he had vetted them, tested them and had been working closely with all of them for their debuts… perhaps Helena’s intellect was partially inherited.

“Is okay honey… is a stressful week… 'The Watch' is a 15 year long project… The industry has had a rough couple of years but test audiences and online response has been overwhelmingly positive, so Vought is very nervous about this launch… and we know Nigel and Sven are mostly nervous about Phantasma.”

“I’m not going to fuck it up, I just don’t want to do this nonesense. I'm busy.”

“The suit gets your funding. V30 might’ve been a success but the rest of your research is dependent on your public image.”

Helena grumbled not wanting to air out dirty iodine stained laundry, she looked down to see the family cat pawing at her leg asking for bacon which she happily obliged.

You settled in the entrance, trying to apply sunscreen to Genevieve as she seemed bothered by this new brand’s smell.

“It's not that bad, my dove.” Homelander came in holding two ties in his hand but no Helena, Elmo behind him looking stressed out– you have to bear it. It's good for you”

“It's yucky!”

“Daddy and mom just want you to be safe out there in the sun… I’ll go buy you a nicer one later, I promise.” He was considering firing the maid who purchased the wrong sunscreen in the first place but he would run it by you later– but first you need to go and take care of your big brother… think of this as your own suit.” He said with a smile.

“Is not a suit! Is cream!”

Her voice was airy, he handed you the ties and took the bottle of your hands instead, kneeling to press a fresh dot on her chin, she pouted but let it happen.

As he got up you wrapped a light blue string on his neck, tying it with more ease than he could ever muster, while Genevieve skipped towards the entrance to find her brother.

“I thought we’d skip the rebellious years with her.”

“What, you think Helena is out of hers?” you lightly chuckle– Ryan wasn’t too bad tho.”

“Ryan was delightful… Helena… thank god she’s Elmo’s problem most of the time.” he said while shaking his head.

“I’m not dating Elmo!” Helena came down with a large messenger bag under her arm and her tablet in the other– even if they love us online.”

“Your dad didn’t mean it like that… more like am your babysitter”

“Say that again and I’ll break your jaw.” she said sharply.

“Always so feisty… I feel bad for your teammates.” You say as your daughter grumbles.

They headed outside bickering about the usual things.

“You look handsome.” Your hands flatten his lapels, getting a feel of his suit– I’ll take Ryan and Genevieve out for lunch so make sure you and Helena eat, don't make me call Elmo.”

“If you ignore these” he pointed at his scars and the slight drop on his left eye– "I tell you at this rate we might have to adopt this kid.”

Admittedly you two had given him his own guest bedroom, and his parents just took you as their designated babysitter as they work and traveled for work tirelessly, but when the superhero business took place it was them who handle it, as you stayed home with the other two kids… regardless in his own way Homelander was fond of the kid who also ate him out of house and home.

“I think you look handsome with the scars…” You whispered.

Your arms wrapped themselves on his shoulders, he grinned sliding his hands into your hips and into your ass, giving you a playful squeeze.

“As I always say… it makes you look distinguished… is sexy.” he smiled for the breathy voice turned him on.

“I think the older I get the worse they get…”

“Oh John… the gray hairs and the scar just makes me wanna fuck you in the coat’s closet before you head for work.” you whispered with a moan.

You kissed him, the peck turned passionate, he lifted you just enough to make a passing maid fluster, your hands trying to control themselves to not mess up his hair, you squeezed at his neck and shoulders as his tongue explored yours.

“There’s children here!”

Ryan covered his eyes, trying to rush past you two as he mimed some gagging, rushing to his bedroom to pick up a forgotten item before returning back down with a gust of wind.

“After you drop the kids… swing by the office” He leaned into your ear, his hand still in your ass– please. babe”

“Those fingers better be warm for me.”

He purred into your lips, hesitant to stop kissing you but as he heard your daughter shout about being late, he reluctantly freed you, as the maid handed you your coat.

As you followed, a small group had already formed on the street catching selfies with Elmo, Helena hid her face behind her gas mask wishing she could flip her finger to the annoying crowd as she entered the car after forcing herself to pose for some photos– Homelander waved you goodbye after kissing Genevieve.

Ryan and Genevieve are already in the car by the time the crowd disperses and Homelander’s car departs.

“What?” Ryan still looked grossed out, his ears already picked up on what his parents had discussed– hey somebody is gonna have to kept your dad in a good mood when he finds out you’re applying for the Performing Arts program”

“I shouldn’t have to lie to him about not wanting to be a superhero.”

“Being a superhero is what will get your foot in Hollywood. The indie scene can be kind to you but if you want to be the next ‘Guillermo Del Toro’ or Miyasaki– you need to keep that suit to impress future investors, producers and studios.”

“So the same thing he says to Helena… he’s going to kill me.” He mumbles.

“Just dedicate your first Palme D’Or to your father… he’s gonna kill you over making animated movies instead of ‘real’ films more likely.”

He scoffed.

“Daddy don’t get angries!.” Genevieve took a juice box out of her backpack, struggling with her little chubby fingers to remove the plastic off the straw– you guys are meanies!”

“Oh Genevieve… you’re right… Daddy is a saint” You help her out, too young to catch the sarcasm– just let me handle your father.”

You leaned towards him, placing your hand on his lightly stubbled face after handing your daughter her juice, looking at him with adoring eyes, he was your sweet boy you could almost see a younger Homelander in him… no… a young John.

“Your father will be mad for a minute but the moment he sees a whole theater room fawning after your work… when he sees you happy beaming with pride… he’ll be crying while starting a round of applause if anything he’ll be so cringy… Leave it to me… besides you’re not staying in Godolkin anyhoo.”

“NYU in two years…” He leaned into your hand– He did… made a big deal when I qualified for South by Southwest… and… he did got pretty upset about not qualifying for that other one…”

“He was looking forward to booking those flights to England” You smiled softly– let him throw his tantrum, my sweet boy. I’ll be right there if you need me, Ryan.”

“Thanks mom.”

Homelander stood beside Nigel and Ashley as the photoshoot took place, a couple heads from marketing and media relations hovered around, the director of photography assistant drone on about the shoot but Homelander paid her very attention, his sight on the computer screen analyzing the images, ensuring his daughter got the best angles, he made his way to interrupt the photographer as he picked “bad” shots, the man was used to helicopter parents trying to do his job in his behalf but superhero suit or not… nobody fail to recognize Homelander, so he listened.

“Her chin looks fat.” He mutters, the man swallows and just nods moving towards his assistant to take his camera once more, Helena scoffs ready for another round of torture– she better look perfect in these concept photos.”

The man nods rapidly.

“Show your powers a bit, princess.” He says towards her– "whose idea was to do a photoshoot in civilian clothes…?”

Homelander turned to Nigel.

“Makes them seem fresh. If they look stylish and beautiful in and out of the suit. People will eat it up… it would be easier if we could recreate what made ‘The Seven’ succeed, and other teams that try to be of that caliber but this isn’t meant to appeal to only the American market, so this works… heroes these days have to be approachable not godly figures …trying to set up a global network of superheroes alongside juiced-up V30 soldiers has been tricky.” Said Ashley-- so we gotta play perfectly."

He rolled his eyes, fidgeting with his phone, getting a glimpse at the other supes waiting for the turn or getting their make-up retouched.

“I feel like we should’ve been doing this 30 years ago to have some older supes in the different territories but this mentorship program was a genius move, Homelander, sir.” Ashley spoke proudly– but the girls are the best representatives of Vought and their countries.”

“Just shipping our recyclable waste overseas.” He chuckles in a creepy manner as his sight focuses on the other heroes– "I almost feel bad for Roman Candle, having to be stuck with Deep in Greece.”

“She has a good sense of humor about it” Ashley smiles at her direction– hopefully he stays there.”

The team was a pretty visually pleasant group, Phantasma and Poltergeist as reps of the American division, Roman Candle– a pyrokinetic Supe representing Southern Europe, the tomboy of the team, her playful pixie cut messy around her golden lyra band, her face covered in freckles, her suit a toga with a chainmail dress beneath, and armor gauntlets and boots, then there was Hex Trap– a powerful illusionist falling into her trap meant having a schizophrenia speedrun representing Northern Africa, her suit was rather casual, a victorian long sleeve blouse, leather shorts, fishnets, black combat boots, and gothic accessories, Hex was a statuest teenager, her hair long and braided and very much french-raised but they had another candidate for western Europe so Homelander handed her Norththen Africa; next to Elmo was La Tunda– a shapeshifter who could turn herself into a frightening beast, she was body positive but not offensive according to Homelander’s team, she was well liked in her country had she not been strong he wouldn’t have given her the opportunity, he had supervise her re-debut makeover– her outfit quite small and her middrift was a bit exposed but it was cheaper in the long run for her to destroy less material, and finally to her left about to have her donut re-fried was the team’s visual– Joro-Spider a successful model, a dancer, social media influencer, a real idol and the representative of East Asia, her long black hair gave her an elegant look and her black, yellow and red suit her half hoodie and sneakers gave her a cool modern look, she was the 2nd most popular after Elmo leaving Helena 3rd in her own team, it aggrevated Homelander but she was a big draw for audiences.

Homelander didn’t hesitate to laser that half-eaten donut making the girl squeal as she dropped the evaporating pastry.

“That’s your third.” She hides her face knowing not to piss him off– go wash your face.”

She runs trying not to cry.

“Ashley… why is Joro’s hair fucking neon-yellow?” He noticed the tips she was hiding in her hood– why was I not notified!?” He screamed.

“She showed up this morning like that!! We already talked to her parents but her fans” she nearly dropped her phone trying to unlock it to show him the hair reveal post, his ire calmed down at the sight of 200K and counting likes– it's a hit.”

“Tell her to come by my office after we are done here.”

Neither Ashley nor Nigel argued with him.

Late afternoon came and all he had left to deal with was the remnants of Helena’s tantrum, each photoshoot had driven her mad, and now she had locked herself in a closet, chunks of her hair trailing her path into the closet.

“Helena I can break this door, or Elmo can faze into that closet and get you out… but I don’t want to do any of that… I want you to come out. I’m not angry.”

He could see her cowering beneath some coats, he had displaced the crowd leaving them alone in the dressing room, he dropped to the ground resting by the door.

“Sorry… I didn’t mean to stress you out… I know between the shareholder meeting, your research and your hero duties you have enough on your plate… but this is a big thing for the both of us… for me… it would be easier if you could just be Dr. Gillman.”

“Can I?” Her voice was a squeak.

“Not yet… not until you take over Vought… after that you can be just my perfect and sweet daughter.”

The door opened slightly, she crawled towards her dad, letting herself be cradled in his arms, sniffling loudly, her once long hair had been cut short, barely passing the lengths of her chin, it was a choppy mess even more so than before, he rested his chin on her head as he wrapped her tight.

“‘The Watch’ means a lot to me… after Butcher did this to me… after his hooligans almost took down Vought… I thought it was over but with you… with you by my side we have worked so hard to rebuild this empire… I’ve worked so freaking hard to get my crown back just for you… just so I have something to give you… I know it's killing you, but this is the only way to bring together our fractured kingdom… for you to lead this new generation of Supes to greatness. We’re American royalty, Helena… it does not come easy to have so many burdens.”

Helena clung to his suit, trying to not pout any further, trying to stop herself from crying.

“The world needs us… it needs your brilliant mind to guide it… in 10 years I don’t doubt you’ll be the head of Vought and no doubt the rest of the world’s superheroes would be under your loyal command… but we can’t get there if we don’t make sacrifices.” he kissed her head, burying his nose in her hair, as he coddled her– or you rather hand your crown to Elmo? Ryan?"

“No… You think the public will love me? I’m not you… am not pretty… I can’t actually fly… am not even that tall! And I suck with people!”

“You are the most beautiful girl in the whole world. When I was your age I was locked in a cage having to practice speaking to people via intercoms and phones… and now I give amazing speeches! Is a skill that you can learn, and flying is cool... is a great selling point but you’re strong and a genius.” He kissed her again, glad that she was still so little compared to him– You’re my daughter and your mother’s daughter… you can do it… for a little bit longer.”

“Maybe Genevieve will like being a hero… it’s hard.”

“It’d be nice if at least one of you does.” His smile is slightly forced but he can’t bring himself to be upset– just to make me happy.”

“She can fly already.” She sounded mad against his chest.

“My little dove lives up to her name… but we need to build a world for her… a world for us Supes and you’re the only one that can do that.”

“I just have to work for a little longer for mom’s and your future…” She lifted her head not trying to get out of her father’s embrace, he looked down at his hand pulling on her nose playfully– I won’t waste 10 years of hard work over some shitty photoshoot. Sorry.”

Butcher had nearly taken everything from her, she had to do everything to make sure Vought would remain, she had to protect her mother’s livelihood and her father’s too, so here she was consumed by anxiety, slashing the hair that’s been played, pulled and burnt, sprayed and washed all day– her nose burning from all the chemicals and oils.

“Let’s go back to the office… that’s enough for today… you got your daddy’s talents! There’s more than enough good shots already, shame that your teammates are so god awful at this… you did great… amazing…” he kissed her forehead gently pushing her away from him, as they struggled to stand up– my sweet girl… you will do amazing things as the head of “The Watch” Vought better watch out..”

“The world you mean.”

He looked at her hair, lifting a few choppy strands in-between his fingers, letting out a soft chuckle.

“I can make this work. Leave it to dad.” he winked.

“Thanks… dad.”

The two-day extravaganza was about to culminate, the fair and meetings had almost ended and the new international team’s first iteration had been a resounding success, Homelander had been approached by his team regarding representatives for India and a NATO backed hero for the eastern bloc, a couple names being thrown: a young man from Hungary and a young woman from Ukraine… he wanted to kept the female ratio high due to future sex-appeal and to foster audiences to view these heroines like daughters or nieces that they wanted to support and watch grow… and maybe with time also fuck– he turned to Also Ashley to politely reject all male prospectives for the time being.

He took a long sip of his ginger ale as Ashley and other execs discussed providing China with their own supe after tentatively selling some small quantities of V30 just to test the waters… he scoffed at the idea, almost colliding with Andrew their stupid CFO over it, it would be easier if he could just rip his jaw off instead of repeating himself, it was weird to be the sensible one on the table for once, leaving the room before he actually killed a man, his eyes constantly flaring as the discussion heated up.

You nudge at his shoulder, inside the basketball stadium that has been transformed to encapsulate the magnitude of Vought, there was the lounge… ‘The Seven Oasis’– the acquisition of the Brooklyn Nets and the Barclay Centre had been divisive but sports was always a good source of income– It was paying off to have your own facility especially after such aggressive expansions.

You both stared at the floor below where only 1 hour ago The Watch officially debuted, the electricity was still in the air as the girls were still on stage partaking in a Q&A, after a lengthy introductory documentary, showing their profiles and accolades.

He turned to see you in an elegant but simple cream coloured two piece suit, in your hand a glass of moscato.

“Ryan is a natural in front of the camera… remember when he was just a shy little thing?” You said resting your weight against him, he shifted lightly on his seat to make you more comfortable, as Ryan and some attractive woman hosted the panel presentation– The Patriot… he plays the role flawlessly, hard to believe it's Ryan under the mask.”

His brows lowered and his lower jaw pushed forward.

“You cannot keep giving me the silent treatment, it's been days.” You remark but he didn’t make a sound– can’t believe it took me 10 years of putting up with you for you to finally leave me alone… guess my back can finally rest.’

He put his ginger ale down, glad that the room was so private, away from the relentless onslaught of annoying execs, Joro was delighting the audiences showing her powers as she swung across the ceiling with increasingly more unpredictable and aggressive movements, it was quite the sight getting the crowd rowdy, he looked away to give you a murderous look.

“I swear we told you.”

“Don’t gaslight me. The one who does the gaslighting in this relationship it's me!” He remarked with a bark– you should’ve told me!”

“Well what’s done is done.” You tried to keep a confident look on your face– now what are you going to do about it?”

“What can I do? Make Ryan hate me!? Just gotta smile like a good boy and deal with it!”

“Exactly!”

“I love you too.” He said with heavy sarcasm, He looked back on the stage listening to Elmo discussing his exploits in Ontario, his goals for protecting the America’s and looking forward to heading down to Mexico– He will continue his Superhero duties! Let him try being fucking Scorcese all he wants but he’s not taking the suit off!”

He smashed his fist on the armrest, breaking it with ease, younger you would have jumped in fright but now it was but a lull, no palpable sense of danger in his actions, you took a short sip of your drink putting it down on the floor, your ears picking up on Elmo’s answering the never ending barrage of dating rumors, being a handsome boy surrounded by a bunch of cute girls certainly put him in a phenomenal position but he treated the answer with respect saying that these girls were like family to him.

Homelander eyes spark as the question became about Helena, he awaited the idiot’s response but Elmo was more than genuine when he spoke of her like her sister, the bastard did sleep in his house enough, he even ended his answer referring to Homelander as his uncle, looking into the booth with a wink– Helena was doing her best to stay still glad that her gasmask covered half her face and her bangs hid her eyes so nobidy saw her pissed off expression, the interviewer turned to Helena about the same question.

“Too busy.” Her tone was playful– maybe when am older and not helping take care of the country! Just not with this doofus!” She elbowed him playfully.

Ryan gave her an approving nod, definitely acting like the good older brother he was, as he reviewed the next question and quickly proceeded to ask the one after.

The audience seemed happy about that, Homelander relaxed turning back to you.

“You have my support there… The Patriot won’t fade away… our boy isn’t stupid, he knows being a super puts him in a better spot than others… but I better have your support for his dreams, in the same way I have supported this grand vision of yours… in the same way you and I have supported Helena.” You rested your chin on his elbow– remember when Helena graduated from MIT… how happy you were?”

He could still see his little 11 year old in her cap, a couple murmurs irritated him as they were incredulous to see a small child on stage, he had taken the job of her driver: flying her back and forth, he was happier when she went to Cornell just to make the trips shorter, her bubble was useful but you both were too worried about her going on her own meeting planes, birds and god knows what else.

He was one of those embarrassing parents that evening.

“Am not upset about him not pursuing Crime Fighting… am upset about being lied to… of course I’ll support him! What kind of dad would I be if I stayed mad about it!?”

“I’m glad you are still doing your best.” You stroke his chin letting him kiss your palm as he follows your tender gestures– Maybe we should start heading downstairs to meet the rest of the execs… heard from Ashley, Russia is throwing some big numbers.”

“Oh geez can’t wait for ‘The Cold War 2: Electric boogaloo edition’ these fucking idiots… Where’s Genevieve? She’s probably tired or high on sugar” he started getting up leaving his mess for somebody else to clean, offering you a hand to help stand up– you look great… that skirt makes your ass look amazing, hope the whole place knows just how good my wife’s ass is…” He gave your behind a light smack as you foolishly took the lead– better than wine.”

“She’s with Ashley’s wife, and thank you… you look cute in a turtleneck… maybe I get to see you out of it.”

As you left the suite, he stopped himself by the door looking into the crowd as ‘The Watch’ began to leave the stage.

“Was it worth it? Getting married and living with me and such.”

He could hear Helena's heartbeat finally calming down, Hearing Ryan speak kindly into her ear. You stared at him unsure as to what brought this on but whatever his ear was picking up might’ve stressed him out.

“I’m happy. I don’t recognize myself some mornings. But I didn’t think I was going to make it back then, always afraid CPS or Vought would take my kid away… wondering if I had a future to give her… then I realized I don’t want to recognize that old me…”

“Sometimes I miss that voice in my head but I don’t think I want him to come back… I like this… I like us… I like the Gillman’s… even the cat, that fat lazy naked cat.”

“You love that cat, you give him chamomile and oat baths so his skin stays healthy!” You laughed thinking of Homelander and that tiny goblin mewling as he stroked his paws with some soothing balm cream made for cats– I like this too… I like that we made it work.”

“And you… you like me? Like you liked me the first time?” you were a bit incredulous at hearing this 50 year old man sound like a teen for the moment, his hand heavy on the door but jittery– I like you… like you lots.”

You blushed, trying to calm down as he swayed lightly on his toes.

“Well you certainly don’t come home covered in blood and guts as often, like when we first met… Jesus you ruined so many nice tops because you were such a messy but sweet boy… shame… I wouldn’t mind getting rid of some shirts” you giggled, you were always a little messed up, you had to be to find him lovely in the first place– I like you… a lot… so…do… you wanna go out on a date with me then?”

You twirled with your hair, biting on your lip trying to be cheesy, here you were a teenage girl asking your crush on the school yard once again.

“Y-Y-Yes!” He swallowed, looking genuinely nervous– Should I get covered in blood for our date?”

“Maybe… altho maybe we should save that up for after Ryan moves to campus, Helena should be busy at work… and I get Ashley and her wife to babysit Genevieve… they want some more practice before the adoption finalizes…so promise?”

“Promise.”

His eyes glowed in a way no superpowered laser ever could imitate, he held your hand as he closed the door behind.

You both thinking about where to go for your next date.

“Maybe we could go furniture shopping and get a singular bed for our bedroom…” He said nervously.

“Maybe” You winked at him.

The end.

A/N: lowkey want to write a sequel to thsi fic but centering on Helena as she tries to be a hero one day so this its baity, also Helena is canonically a lesbian so she'll never be with Elmo as to how Homie will react well I always write him as canon Bi but he doesn't know she's gay yet so who knows.

can i request lee!leeknow and ler!hyunlix?

Absolutely!

Pairings: Lee! Lee Know Ler: Hyunjin

Genre: t-word/comfort

Relationship: platonic

I Like Your Bunny Laugh

Lee Know was well known as one of the main lers in SKZ, but no one except for Bang Chan and maybe Han have been brave enough to turn the tables on the second oldest, until now. Lee Know was at the company building in one of the practice rooms, dancing his heart out. He was preparing for their encore stages and wanted to perfect a few moves, so he stayed after vocal practice to work on some of the choreography. If he were to mess up even a smidge, he would restart the song and start from the beginning. The music was so loud he didn't hear the door open, barely noticing his oldest 00 liner staring at him. He only turned around when his music came to an abrupt stop.

"Hyung, what are you still doing here?" asked a concerned Hyunjin. Lee Know waved it off.

"I haven't been in here that long," he said wiping his sweaty forehead. They just got done with vocal practice.

"Hyung, everyones home wondering where you are, even Bang Chan's home," Hyunjin said, bummed that Lee Know was working himself harder than he needed to. Lee Know looked at the clock and saw Hyunjin was right. It was almost two am.

"We don't need any injuries before or during this tour, Hyungie..." Hyunjin said with caution. He didn't want to scold Lee Know, he just wanted him to come home. Lee Know looked at his sweaty figure in the mirror before trudging over to the couch, plopping down and grabbing his water, swigging it. He wiped his mouth before chuckling.

"i'm such a hypocrite," he said looking at his feet. Hyunjin walked over and sat next to him on the couch.

"Not necessarily, you just want to do your best, which I get, but you can't push yourself more than what your body will allow. We already danced for six hours straight today, you need to rest, Hyung," Hyunjin said patting his knee. Lee Know played with the water bottle in his hands.

"I'm sorry if I made you worry, Jinnie," he said with a small pout. Hyunjin sighed dramatically.

"Don't. Apologize. Lee. Know. Hyung," Hyunjin said, poking his Hyung with every word. Lee Know tried to hold in his giggles but he was too sensitive. His wide bunny smile brightened up the whole room when Hyunjin started poking quickly and effectively, the older of the two trying to grab his wrists but failing every time.

"Okahahahay Ihihi I'm sorryhehehehe waihahahahait!" Lee Know realized what he said when Hyunjin started squeezing his sides. Lee Know was too tired to fight as he fell back on the couch, giving Hyunjin full access to his midsection.

"Hehehehehehe" Lee Know's bunny laugh echoed in the practice room while Hyunjin's fingers danced from his sides to his tummy.

"Will you come home now?" Hyunjin asked as his fingers went under Lee Know's shirt, scratching at his belly button. Lee Know arched his back and screeched.

"HYUNJINAHAHHAHAHAHAHA" he squealed, trying to protect his poor tummy.

"What was that?" Hyunjin asked as he swiftly lifted up his shirt and blew a raspberry on a random part of Lee Know's tummy.

"BAAAHAAHAHA OKAHAHAHAHAHA OKAY I'LL COME HOHOHOME HAHAHA PLEASE HYUNJINAHAHAHAHA" Lee Know screamed as Hyunjin blew raspberry after raspberry until the leader of dance racha fell into silent laughter. When Hyunjin looked at him, Lee Know had tears in his eyes.

"I'm sorry if I went too far, Hyung," Lee Know said quietly as he wiped the fallen tear. Lee Know giggled.

"Don't be, I kind of needed that..." Lee Know said shyly. Hyunjin smiled and hugged him.

"Lets go home?" Hyunjin asked. Lee Know patted his back.

"Lets go home," he said smiling. Hyunjin helped him up and they walked out the door. Lee Know was looking forward to his bed, his bed that he later would fine half occupied by a sleeping maknae.

heyy :D can i request jeemin x f!reader ?? soo jeemin knew how sensitive you are and you sometimes take things very seriously and she’s the type who’s love language is bullying you 😭 she would always pick on you all the time, mostly since she’s way taller than you ;) BUT BUT one day you give her the silent treatment cz u were so mad at her that day 😤

THANK YOUU 🧡

Hiiii Anon <3 Thanks for this request, it’s so cute 😭🫶🏼

Bang Jeemin x F!reader

⚠️: trainee au, comedy, fluff, reader is an 04 liner

You thought becoming a trainee under Hybe was the best thing that happened in your life. Not until you met the bubbly and talented Bang Jeemin who welcomed you to the company when you first arrived.

You found her absolutely charming and you realised you were falling for the taller girl when the butterflies were going crazy in your stomach. And they were fluttering at everything Jeemin did whether it be Jeemin talking to you with that bright smile or even if she was just eating her snacks alone in the studio.

Long story short you confessed to her in a photo booth during the 5 second countdown and Jeemin responded to it by grabbing your waist and kissing your lips. The photos came out great and it’s displayed on both of your phone cases and set as your lock screens.

You two continued going strong, even through the process of R U Next’s development.

Being a few months into the relationship, you enjoyed all the hugs, kisses, and praises Jeemin gave you every second of the day. However, you weren’t prepared for the amount of playful bullying that turned out to be your girlfriend’s love language.

She enjoys targeting your height more than anything.

Which is what she was doing right now.

You and the other R U Next contestants had finished an intense workout, leaving everyone drenched in their own sweat and dragging their weak bodies for water.

Looking around the gym, you saw your sweaty yet super attractive girlfriend drinking out her water bottle. You approached her with puppy eyes.

“Baby can I have some?”

Jeemin pursed her lips. “Hmmm, say you love me first”

You groaned, clearly not in the mood for her childish antics today but your dry throat needed that refreshment. “I love you. Can I drink it now?”

“Give me a kiss”

“Jeemin I’m thirsty!”

“The quicker you give me this kiss, the quicker you’ll get some water”

You stomped your feet, which your girlfriend found adorable, and you went on your toes to kiss her lips. But as you reached for the bottle afterwards, Jeemin was quick to raise it up in the air, her long arm made it impossible for you to even jump for it.

“Are you kidding me right now, Bang Jeemin?”

“Come get it, babe” Jeemin smirked and waved the bottle around.

You would usually fight back at times like this but your worn out body wanted the complete opposite. There was no energy left to climb your girlfriend’s tree height and snatch that water out of her hands but you just needed some cold liquid to quench your thirst.

Giving a frustrated sigh, your eyes scanned the room again and you saw Yunah grabbing an ice cold water bottle from her duffel bag. Deciding not to continue with your girlfriend’s lame bullying, you jogged to Yunah and caressed her arm.

Jeemin was left confused. “Wait Y/n”

“Yunah-ya…”

The taller 04 contestant almost melted at your cute eyes. “What’s up?”

“Can I please drink some of your water?”

She didn’t hesitate to give the bottle and let you chug it down like you were stranded on an island for days. Her eyes widened at the now empty bottle that you kindly returned to her.

“Damn, did Jeemin not pack you enough water or something”

You rolled your eyes at the mention of your girlfriend’s name.

“I don’t wanna talk to her right now. She’s being mean”

“It’s Jeemin. She’s always mean” Yunah shrugged but you shook your head.

“I’m not in the mood today and she’s making it worse by picking on me. We’ll see how she likes it when I give her the silent treatment”

Yunah chuckled and ruffled your sweaty hair. “You’re sensitive today, aren’t you?”

You slapped her hand away. “Am not”

“Is Y/n having a tantrum again?” Chanelle walked to your side and poked it.

You nudged her with your elbow. “Shut up, I’m not having a tantrum. Just need some time away from Jeemin”

The two snickered at your pouty lips and crossed arms. You indeed looked like a baby who wasn’t allowed to buy the toy you wanted.

Once everyone has returned to the dorms and took a refreshing shower, Jiwoo offered to order the entire group some take out as a reward for their hard work.

Since the dorms were too small to fit all 22 contestants, everyone walked to the park nearby and laid out the feast on a big bench.

“Thank you for the food Jiwoo Unnie!!” Everyone cheered and started digging in.

Jeemin took a bite out of some fried chicken and squealed at the delicious taste. She picked up another piece and turned around, thinking you were there for her to feed but she was surprised to see Jihyun instead.

Jihyun smiled and opened her mouth. “Ahhhhh”

Jeemin fed her the chicken anyways before looking around. She found you sitting with Chanelle at the end of the table who was feeding you rose tteokbeokki. Some sauce was left on your lips and the half American wiped it off with her thumb.

Jeemin didn’t appreciate that at all.

She stood up and walked around the table, using the chopsticks to grab another piece of chicken and aiming it in front of your face. “Baby, try this”

You continued eating the tteokbeokki that Chanelle offered, completely ignoring your girlfriend’s presence. Swallowing the food, you thanked Chanelle and walked off to sit between Jeongeun and Wonhee.

Jeemin’s shoulders dropped with disappointment. “Why is she mad at me?”

Chanelle shrugged. “She told me you annoyed her during the workout sesh”

“But what did I do?”

“She didn’t tell me specifically. Just give her some space, she’s a hotheaded little girl”

Jeemin pouted and took the free seat next to Chanelle.

And that is how the day painfully continued for Bang Jeemin. When she tried to hold your hand, you’d pull back and run off to link arms with Moa.

When she tried to whisper ‘I love you’s into your ear, you’d turn your head away and pretend that you had something much more important to do.

It was slowly killing the poor girl and she was close to crying under the bed covers for the rest of the day but she would get scolded for missing any practices.

Finally taking Chanelle’s advice, Jeemin stayed out of your way and attempted to make herself feel better by sticking next to Hyewon.

“You look like a kicked puppy” Hyewon commented as she stretched.

Jeemin stared at her reflection in the studio mirrors. “I miss my girlfriend”

“Then stop bullying her”

“Is that why she’s mad?”

“She’s a short girl with a big temper. Just be patient and I’m sure she’ll come around soon” Hyewon smiled, rubbing Jeemin’s back out of comfort.

“You’re right. Wanna film a TikTok?”

Hyewon nodded with sparkling eyes. “Let’s do it! What did you wanna do?”

“I saw this cool dance recently. It’s saved on my phone!” Jeemin excitedly took out her phone and scrolled through her saved videos, finally showing Hyewon the choreo.

“Looks easy enough. Run me through it”

As both contestants began their own little practice, you were sitting on the other side, staring at your girlfriend with worried eyes. You hoped your silent treatment didn’t go too far.

All thoughts were interrupted when someone sat beside you. “You can’t ignore Jeemin forever you know”

“Funa Unnie, am I being too harsh?” You asked while tucking your knees to your chest.

“I don’t think so, but I feel like you should start paying attention to her. She’s been walking with a grey cloud over her head”

“Are you like this with Moa Unnie too?”

Funa nodded. “Yes but not all the time. She’s like a cat with zoomies at 3am”

You gave a little chuckle before standing up. “I guess I should talk to Jeemin then”

“Alright, see you later”

As you took a few steps towards your dancing girlfriend, Jeemin made a wrong step and ended up colliding into Hyewon, causing them to fall on the ground.

“Jeemin!” You gasped and went on your knees to cup her face. “Are you okay? Any scratches? Bruises?”

She leaned her face into your warm palms. “Now you wanna talk to me? I should fall over more”

“Hey don’t say that!” You hissed. “But Im sorry for ignoring you, baby. I was a bit angry with your bullying”

“No no I should be sorry! I take it too far most of the time”

“I missed you, Jeeminie” you smiled, making her smile too.

The grey cloud above Jeemin’s head had disappeared.

“Oh you wouldn’t believe the state I was in. I missed you more than anything in this world” She said and jumped over to hug you tight.

“So no one’s gonna ask if I’m okay?” Hyewon crossed her arms.

You and Jeemin grabbed her hands and yanked Hyewon back on her feet. “You still wanna do the choreo?”

Hyewon nodded. “Duh! Wanna join Y/n?”

“Yeah sure”

Jeemin held your waist. “Stay by my side forever”

“Did the silent treatment make you this sappy, Bub?” You pinched at her cheeks.

“You have no idea”

“Okay, if we’re gonna do this TikTok, you two need to drop the PDA” Hyewon scolded.

“But I love my girlfriend so muchhh~”

You blushed as Jeemin went on to litter your face with kisses, completely ignoring Hyewon’s words.

Lapis took in a deep breath as she looked at the door in front of her. Her heart was pounding as she felt nervous butterflies flying around in her stomach. She gently knocked on Jade’s door looking down to see the outfit she was wearing. She decided to put on a dark blue headband, and tank top dress with a triple ruffled skirt that ended at her knees, a quarter sleeved blouse that ended slightly below her skirt, and a pair of kitten heels in a slightly darker shade of blue. Her legs were shaking violently as the door opened. She looked up at Jade who raised a brow. “Are you okay?” Jade asked. “Yeah, I’m fine, I was just wondering if you could maybe do my make up for me before I go and meet Marina, and her mom.” Lapis said slightly fast, holding one of her arms, and looking down. “Sure.” Jade said before Lapis looked up. She was slightly surprised as Jade beckoned her into her room. Lapis walked in. The room was painted a pastel green, with a white wood bed with a pastel green quilt next to a large white bookshelf with some books, fake plants, and a few jewelry boxes. To her left was a white door and a large white vanity with two stools by it. On the vanity were a variety of makeup types including eyeshadow, lipstick, lip gloss, blush, nail polish, and eye liner. All in different colors, and in different skin tones. It was weird to her at first until she learned she worked at a beauty salon. Lapis sat down at the seat closest to the door whilst Jade sat across from her. “So what type of look are you going for?” Jade asked as Lapis gud in the pocket of her dress and pulled out her phone. She pulled up the text Marina sent her before her shift had ended. The text contained a mention of the type of look to go for. It was very appreciated since other date nights the two had she would always end up having to ask for what look would best suit the date. Marina had said that a decent looking, but casual look would do. As if they were going to a nice restaurant, or on a picnic. Jade looked at the text and nodded. “Alright, I think I can do that.” Jade said as she grabbed a hair tie. “I’m going to monetarily mess up your hair, but it is just your bangs since your headband holds back the rest of your hair.” Jade explained as Lapis nodded. Before Jade tied her bangs up and put part of them under her head band. Jade then grabbed a few tubes of what looked like lotion at first. She grabbed Lapis left arm gently and started holding the tubes up to her arm, and seemed to be comparing them. That’s when she noticed the different shades of brown. Seeing which one best matched her skin tone before eventually settling on a tone that was basically her own. “This is a concealer. It basically covers up stuff like dark spots, and pimples by blending it into the skin.” Jade said as squeezed some out and rubbed her hands together. Lapis closed her eyes. She felt Jade’s hands rub against her face alongside the cold concealer. It felt almost like someone was putting on lotion on her face. “So are you excited to meet Marina’s mother?” Jade asked as Lapis took in a shaky breath. “A little, but mostly nervous since Marina tends to talk about the not so good things from her mother over the better things.” Lapis answered as she recalled the conversation the two had last night. “Is she homophobic?” Jade asked. “No, she knows we’re dating, and doesn’t have a problem with it. It’s Marina’s father who is homophobic.” Jade hummed before removing her hand from her face. “Okay.” Jade said as Lapis opened her eyes. She saw Jade wipe her hands off on what looked like a wet rag. “I’m going to need you to close your eyes again. Because I’m going to give you some eye shadow, and eyeliner.” Lapis nodded as she closed her eyes again. “So does having to meet with Marina’s mother have anything to do with the panic attack you were having the other day?" Jade asked.

[eyes] all muses?

[eyes]: not just the colour, but the shape, the length of their eyelashes, whether they’re alert or usually half-closed, large or small, sunken into the face, ringed by bags, etc.

*cracks my knuckles* here we go. I'm just gonna do the main 9! Also here is where I admit that my doing the picrews was to assist in understanding their eyes lmao.

Raziel

Raziel's eyes shift between being: Black Holes and full of stars.. The full of stars are in his human form, and though they appear to be black, when he wears glasses, you can see what appears to be brightly colored, flickering flecks within and occasionally shooting across his irises (he's got no pupils). Those are, for all intents and purposes, stars. Just in there because he contains multitudes. The black holes come about when he's in battle mode, or when he needs to be a little terrifying. You can shine a light on those bad boys and not a single reflection will be there.

In general, his gaze is relaxed, jovial even. And when he's working he's got that kind Librarian air to his looks, and when he looks over his glasses you know you need to shape up!!!

Rhemiel

Rhemiel's eyes are a dark dark brown, almost black. And they look such a lush color in the light. They're slightly deeper set, but no less comforting. The reason for this is because it's very rare that his gaze isn't just calm or soft. Being looked at by him definitely feels like you're the only focus he has...and that applies even more if you're the reason why he's upset or angry. Eyelashes are lovely but not especially long or thick.

Kariel

Her eyes are almond shaped and a beautiful hazel, mostly with green and a ring of amber around the pupil. Whenever she goes out she does do kohl liner and it makes her eyes even more prominent. I would hazard saying that her natural gaze is neutral, but that's mostly because it's just...one step above that in the intensity category. Even though she's shorter than you, the feeling that she's looking down at you is palpable. However, if she loves you, her eyes seem to brighten just seeing you.

Athriel

Athriel is an interesting one. They have sweet, honey colored eyes that always seem to be happy to see you, even if they're meeting for the first time. Because the apples of their cheeks keep their eyes almost eternally half or partially closed in a smile, to see their full, wide eyed stare is more of a rarity than one might realize. They do have long lashes, and they take very good care of themselves.

Maroon

Oof. Maroon is...a lot. They decided to keep their eyes from Home as a reminder of who they were, what they've done, and that's what they hide behind their bangs. A set of four eyes that seem to be glowing, bright gold, yellow and white, swirling and prone to actually getting set aflame whenever they experience intense emotion, but especially intense anger. Most people (note: mortal) who look directly at them cry, or feel overwhelmed.

Uzzeth

Okay this one takes the cake for longest, thickest eyelashes. Uzzeth has eyelashes that are the envy of anyone who sees them. I cannot stress enough how pretty this man's eyes are. They are downturned, a little hooded and have a bit of bag under them, but my god. Fucking stunning. They are a bold, deep emerald green and because of his internal flame there seems to be flecks of iridescent color within them. 90% of the time they seem to be focused nowhere in particular and are almost in a thousand yard stare, but when they focus on someone or something, the intensity can catch you off guard.

Atem

Can we get another oof for this bad boy? Atem used to have stunning golden eyes, but since his fall they appear to be tarnished, faded in color and hazy. There's intense scarring around them as well, thankfully faded some but still nasty looking. Atem is one that has chronic resting bitch face, and so his eyes are almost always giving the vibe of being annoyed. If he cares for you, or about you, his eyes will soften and give way to an extremely expressive side that very few get to see. His eyes are still the windows to his soul, as they were a big part of his job when he was in heaven, and so they remain even now.

Austen

We had to have one heterochromatic nerd and here he is!! His left eye is the Hazel one, and is a good blend of soft, pale green and amber, the right one is a lovely brown. He does have thick lashes, and is prone to fluttering them to get his way when he's definitely done an oopsie. He cannot look at someone in the eye whenever he talks to them, not to be rude but because it makes him uncomfortable, and that is the number one expression that comes through them, nervousness.

Xi also has dark brown eyes, and they look eternally tired. She's got gucci bags under her eyes and a slight pink tint to them from the amount of time she spends not sleeping, and prominent eyelashes she got from her father's side of the family. They are a little more wide set than others, slightly upturned, and always watching. Even when she is by herself she is scanning whatever space she's in. When she's not making sure there is nothing pressing in her environment, she is lazer focused on her spells and projects to the point where if you disturb her, her next gaze can probably kill at ten paces.

Yarrow

Yarrow has the funky little trait of seasonal eyes! During the spring and summer their eyes are stunning shades of green, in spring the accent color is what appears to be pink, while during summer it's a deep yellow. During fall and winter their eye colors go from amber to black, no accent colors to be had with these. If you've ever wondered how an author can ever overuse 'their eyes narrowed' when writing, this is the character that does it. Yarrow always has an air of studying and incredulity coming from them, and that never really changes. They use glamours to lengthen and thicken their lashes as well as add little decorations and glitter to them, but normally they're pretty average.

3racha as rockstars

look @katieraven i finally did it!!! months later!!! i wrote it!!!!!!

warnings: 3racha x gn!reader

genre: fluff

word count: >1.5k

chan

you’re backstage - you always are, accompanying chris to every show he puts on. you’ve been on the road for months now, it finally started seeming like normal life to you and you’re stuck wondering how you’re going to go back to your 9-5 schedule after this tour is over. when you bring up to him, he jokes that ever since you met him your life has been anything but normal, and you can’t help but agree. your friends joke about how you’re a roadie, following this band around for bang chan, but are you a roadie if you fall into his bed every night? if it’s his ring that sits snugly on your index finger? if it’s the scent of his shampoo that lingers on your hair from your shared shower?

besides that, he invited you on this tour. he begged on his knees, eyes dusted with black shadow pleading up at you making it impossible to say no. it had only been a few months of dating, and you were unsure about how unsure you were about saying yes. the next day you put in a request for time off at your job and you were packing a single bag, setting up a sitter for your cat who you wouldn’t see in what seemed like forever. you didn’t mind any of it, though. you would do anything for chris.

you wonder what his fans would think of you. wonder how jealous they would be if they knew you were the one whose arms he ran into after he got off stage, sweaty and happy and giddy. if they knew you were the one who passed him an ice cold water bottle mid show from back stage because you knew when his voice got hoarse enough to need it. if they knew those same fingers that strung the chords on his guitar were the ones that dipped under your shirt at night, between your legs, through your hair, around your neck. if they knew it was your fingers running through his hair when he lays his head in your lap on the drive back from the venue to the hotel, finding comfort in you as his adrenaline dies down.

“did you like the show?” he asks, peering up at you with wide eyes as he nuzzles into your hand a bit. his hair is damp with sweat from the show, but you don’t mind. you’ll wash it for him while his head is resting on you gently when you get to the hotel.

“as much as i liked the one last night,” you giggle, knowing that he would pout about your answer and - yes, there it is. his puppy dog eyes and plush lips make a deadly combo, but you’ve been dealing with this for a while now. nevertheless, you placate him. “i’m kidding, chris. of course i loved it. i love anything you do.”

and it’s true. even before you met him, when you were just a casual fan of 3racha’s music, before you even had a face to put to the sultry voice that echoed through your speakers. even then, you were in love with him.

you ignore the gagging sounds coming from changbin and jisung in the front seat as you lean forward to seal your lips to his.

changbin

you straddle his lap from where he sits on the raggedy tour bus couch, holding a jet black eyeliner pencil in one hand and a soft bristled brush in the other. you’re applying the liner in small, soft strokes, being careful not to mess up. you follow through with the brush, smudging it a bit onto his waterline just the way you know he likes it.

or, the way he knows you like it.

you only realize your tongue was peeking out of your mouth in concentration when he reaches to poke at it with a finger. he playfully frowns at the wetness that transfers and wipes his hand on his stage jeans, looking up at you as if challenging you to scold him for it. you roll your eyes at him instead as you reach over his head, your upper body invading his space as you grab his rings off the counter behind him - not that he ever minded you in his space, he preferred it that way, actually. the amount of time he spends with his head pressed to your chest as you lay together serves as evidence. i want you with me, always, he would tell you while he clung to you with his strong arms. he would drag you up along side him on stage if he could. and you would let him, helpless to his will, even though the thought of being up in front of a crowd terrifies you.

he wants to show you off to the world, showcase your beauty and your wit and your charm so they can fall in love with you the way he has. the desire to keep you to himself and protect you overrules it, though.

you continue your routine, sliding his chunky metal rings on his fingers. you’ve been helping him get ready for his shows for as long as you’ve known him, since the first time he excitedly dragged you to meet his band mates before getting on stage.

“i’ll redo these when we have some free time, yeah?” you say, running your thumb over his nails and taking in the callouses on his fingertips and his chipped nail polish. , enjoying the sensation of the roughness. doing his nails was one of your favorite things to do with him, and his too. it gives you an excuse to hold his hands for a while, and he was addicted to the calmness that took over as he observed your careful swipes of black polish. it was one of the only times you spend together in silence, and while you love the sound of his voice the melody of his slow breathing was sweet to your ears, too.

“yes please,” he says, looking up at you with the softest smile, his eyes staring up at you like you held the stars in the sky. it still baffles you how this charismatic, hard, edgy man you met on stage is really soft as fresh cotton on the inside, and only for you. no one else gets to see this side of him. as it turns out, you’re a little protective, too.

jisung

you didn’t plan to be here. you were supposed to come with a friend, she bought you the ticket for a band you’ve never even heard of, and when she backed out last minute you shrugged your shoulders and went alone anyways.

you surely didn’t expect your breath to be taken away by the lead guitarist.

his torn sleeves show off his lean arms, tattoos rippling on soft, flexed muscle as he plays his guitar with ferocity. his mouth shapes into a smirk as he croons into the microphone, teeth sharp and eyes sultry. you’re entranced, you don’t think you’ve seen a man more beautiful than this in your entire life, and when he turns and meets your eyes you’re lost. his eye contact is intense and smoldering, like the shadow dusted across his lids, and the piercing on his eyebrow is quirking up as he pushes through his lyrics. his mouth is pressed right up against the mic, and you can’t help but wonder how they would feel up against your skin instead.

then he breaks eye contact and the moment is gone, the pressure fizzling out into steam and disappearing into the air. you shake your head, resetting yourself before swaying againt the music, cheeks burning.

when it’s over you exit the back venue doors, immediately turning away from the hoard of screaming fans surrounding the tour bus to the right of the building. you just spent an hour sharing breathing air with this band, you felt no need to stalk outside their tour bus to get another glimpse of them. or at least, that’s what you tell yourself as images of the man on stage flash through your memory.

“what’s a struggling musician have to do to get some attention?” you head a voice say behind you, the soft insecurity you can hear in the words betraying the meaning. you turn around to see han jisung, the man you had just been feet away from while he was playing for his adoring fans. the one who’s eyes you couldn’t look away from, who’s magnetism made you want to walk right up onto that stage.

the one who’s entire demeanor has changed, gone is the confident and alluring rockstar and in his place is a awkward and shy boy in a rockstar’s costume. not that you minded, he was irresistible either way.

“you’re hardly struggling, i’d say.” you quirk a brow, gesturing at the direction of the screaming. the show was sold out, not a single amount of wiggle room was left in the arena.

“ah, it’s nothing,” he shrugs, “i’d trade it all for the right person, anyways.”

“and who is the right person, exactly?”

“why don’t you help me find out?”

he holds out a hand to you, and you take it.

Self Care Day (Damian Wayne x Reader)

summary: You insist on spending the night with Damian. Bonding together as you do a skin-care routine on him and he shows you a new favorite anime of his. Honestly just a bunch of playful banter and flirty one-liners.

word count: 2,880~

warnings: eyebrow razor used to shave around his eyebrows (brief)

I wrote this with the thought that Damian would want to watch Spy X Family because it’s super popular right now and it’s canon he likes this kind of stuff. So I thought I could split-screen and watch it while writing and not get distracted……..I was very wrong. I spent the majority of the time drooling over the protagonist instead of actually writing.

Yes, I've been on a Damian kick lately, sue me. This is what happens when I spend a month analyzing a character.

“Is this all really necessary?”

Damian eyed all the different colored bottles aligned together on your bedside. They ranged in size and shape, you even had a few gadgets he’d never seen before but he didn’t doubt they were tortuous.

“If you want your skin to be healthy, then yes, they are all necessary.”

His eyes didn’t leave the torture gadgets, trying to guess what method they were useful for. “My skin is just as healthy as the rest of my body.”

You rolled your eyes. “If by that you mean malnourished and severely dehydrated. Come on, Dames, you promised you’d let me do a self-care day with you.”

He met your eyes with a bored expression. “I do not recall such a promise, I merely wanted you to have a self-care day.”

His words may have seemed dismissive, but you knew the underlying care he had. Work has been stressful for the both of you and, as observant as ever, Damian called you out on it. He loves to see you care for yourself, he’d just rather jump out a window before admitting it.

You smiled sweetly. “And when I asked if you’d join me I didn’t hear a ‘no’,” you dragged out the word in a sing-song voice.

His eyes lingered over the objects before he deflated his chest in a dramatic sigh. “I suppose it cannot be helped.”

“I knew you’d come around.” You clapped your hands excitedly, shifted a bit before patting the pillow in your lap. Damian immediately responded to your invitation. He crawled onto the bed and turned around, hesitantly leaning back. You guided his head down until it settled onto the pillow, a soft cushion for his head to lay peacefully without a crook in his neck forming.

“Here,” you handed him the remote to the bedroom TV, “Put on that new show you wanted me to watch—the detective romance one, was it?”

He snatched the remote out of your hands as his shoulders shifted up until he could see the screen comfortably. “Spy romance.”

“Ay yes,” you chuckled, “My mistake, the Billionaire Detective is next.”

Damian fiddled with the remote as you grabbed for the fuzzy headband next to you, conveniently colored green to match yours. It was his no matter how many times he said it wasn't, but he’d huff if you tried giving him a different one.

You slipped the headband onto his face until it settled in place with his bangs completely pushed back. It had a bow on it and he looked completely adorable with it on, like a chihuahua in a tutu, feral but at least cute.

Damian’s trust in you was always so prevalent in these moments. It may seem normal or domestic, but with Damian, he can be so averse to touch it makes you grateful for every moment he relaxes under your hands. He didn’t even feel the need to watch your every move (granted he could put this to a stop at any second with his reflexes). His eyes trained onto the TV as he pulled up the first episode.

You grabbed the wet towel and dabbed at his face, adding a layer of water so you didn’t tear at any of his skin. Your hand automatically rested along his jawline, cradling his face as you swiped over every section: forehead, cheeks, and nose.

“How do you have black eyeshadow in your eyebrows,” you remarked, staring in amazement at the pigment that transferred onto your hand-towel. “I thought you guys only put that around your eyes, like your eyelid and under eye.”

Damian watched the car crash on the screen. “Sometimes,” his tone edged with feigned annoyance, “We are in a rush. Precision in makeup does not save lives, time does.”

“I don't know,” you teased, scrubbing at his eyebrows until the black came off, “I think you’re just in denial about your clumsiness.”

“I am not clumsy,” his eyes glared up at you but the bite in his gaze softened when you planted a kiss on his nose.

“It’s okay, just means I get to spend more time looking at your handsome face when we do this.”

You smiled down at him but his gaze diverted, a slight tinge of pink at the highs of his cheeks. You planted the rag next to the water bowl on your bedside table and grabbed the exfoliating brush, a small round scrub that fit perfectly in your hand.

“You’re insufferable.”

“ ‘love you too.”

Two pumps of oil-based cleanser and you got to work by softly scrubbing the cleanser into his skin in slow circles. It mixed with the water and created tiny bubbles, a sharp contrast of pure white to show you where you worked in the product so far.

You eyed the screen as you took in the protagonist's personality—no wonder Damian loved this show so much, he was just as cold as he could be.

“He’s kind of cute,” you said as you washed off the applicator in the water bowl.

“Who?” Damian demanded.

“What’s his face,” you vaguely pointed to the screen, “The blonde guy.”

“He’s competent, I’ll give him that. He’s an admirable spy and detective, but by no means is he cute.” Damian’s arms crossed over his chest lazily, the remote in his hand bouncing up and down absent-mindedly.

“If you say so,” you started wiping the thin layer of foam off of Damian, “I think I just have a thing for hot vigilantes.”

He flicked your wrist as it was the nearest part of you to him. “Stop your foolishness and pay attention.”

He crossed his arms again. You smiled in satisfaction when the corners of his lips upturned slightly.

“Oh trust me,” you whistled as the protagonist came on screen again, “I’m paying attention.”

Damian tisked, only settling down when your hands returned to his face to finish off his double cleanse with a water-based cleanser. The same slow, circular movement continued, dragging out your motions to be as relaxing as you could for him.

The protagonist's dialogue of holding someone's hand made you snort: “Having one hand tied up will make it tough to counter an enemy ambush. But I can manage.”

“He sounds just like you,” you mused.

Damian’s head moved along with you as you rubbed at his skin. “Unlike him, I can defend you with ease and have your hand in mine the entire time. I do not need more than one hand to protect us.”

You nodded, impressed. “I’ll keep that in mind the next time we go to the mall.”

“If an enemy were to ambush us in such a place, they are a fool. Malls are overcrowded, far too many witnesses would be involved. They’ll have better luck fishing without a hook.”

You wiped gently underneath his eye so no soap would fall near it. Before you could respond, the protagonist’s inner monologue cracked you up again: “Did I do something to make her hide from me? Maybe I held her hand too early. Does she hate me?”

You laughed out loud. “I’m starting to see why you like this show, Dames.”

“Oh please,” Damian rolled his eyes, “I knew exactly when to hold your hand and I executed it with pure confidence.”

“Whatever you say,” you teased, distinctly remembering you having to brush knuckles with him a few minutes prior so he could finally catch the hint.

You picked up a light oil serum and started applying it to the skin, quickly followed by your favorite roller. You applied light pressure as the roller glided over the curves of his face, pushing the serum deep into the skin to work its magic.

This time it was Damian’s turn to snort. The side character yawned, “I'm so tired I can't walk anymore.” Forcing the protagonist to carry them.

“Sound familiar?” his eyes gleamed as they looked up at you.

You shrugged. “What can I say, I enjoy a good piggy back ride. Half the time you offer to carry me, so you have no room to complain.” You cleared your throat and spoke in the deepest voice you could muster to imitate Damian: “Your walking at a snail's pace, keep up or I will have to carry you.”

When you finished you looked down at him with a pointed look.

“If you didn’t walk so slow I wouldn’t have to threaten to carry you.”

You hummed, rolling out his face without paying much mind. “Maybe I do it on purpose because I know you’ll carry me.”

Damian's eyes narrowed playfully. “You wouldn't.”

You smiled to yourself, arms up in a dramatic shrug. “Guess you’ll never know.”

He huffed, “I will keep that in mind next time we go to the pier.”

You laughed softly, looking forward to your next date because that was just Damian’s way of announcing it. You couldn’t count how many times Damian insisted on carrying you after galas, carrying your heels so you could get some rest. He loved it as much as you did, but the lighthearted banter was always fun.

Putting the roller aside, you opened the eye cream, squirting a small portion onto the tip of your finger. His eyes were always a sensitive area—you learned the hard way after trying to do his makeup the first time. He always needed either a warning or a telegraph of your movements so he could predict everything—he wasn’t too fond of surprises.

Your fingers gently swiped the cream on his cheek bone and smoothed it upwards until it got over his eyebags. You tried to be extremely cautious on this part, steadying your hands so they wouldn’t jerk the cream into his eyes.

His dazzling green eyes fluttered upwards so his eyelashes wouldn't interfere with your work. When he looked up at you, your heart still skipped a beat every time. You smiled, planted a kiss onto his lips in reward for being so trusting and patient with you.

Damian returned the kiss graciously, it was clunky at best with the upside-down positioning, but you couldn’t care less. Everytime his lips were on yours it sparked something inside you, making each kiss just as good as the one before.

You parted, your hands still cradling the sides of his face. His eyes lingered on your face for a while, commiting each of your features to memory to recreate another time. His sketchbooks were always filled with you, his one and only muse; he could never get tired of your face.

As you picked up his specific moisturizer, crafted for his sensitivities in mind and skin type, Damian turned to look back at the show.

“But I want to draw.”

“Don’t concern yourself with childish things.”

Damian tisked, shifting his legs a little into a more comfortable position. “Drawing is far from childish. It is a prestigious art form dating back centuries.”

“I agree, drawing is incredibly admirable,” you felt Damian’s eyes on you as you opened the moisturizer. You continued: “Being smart is one thing, but being creative,” you whistled, “That’s impressive.”

Damian nodded firmly, looking at the mad scientist with disdain. “He is just an imbecile.”

“A bonehead, if you will.”

“Yes, a bonehead,” Damian repeated as a way to ignore his soaring heart. His hobby was far from a secret. He gifted you his artwork from time to time, drawing a small landscape to fit in your wallet to carry as a good luck charm or just a doodle he did during class that made him think of you. His sketchbooks were extremely personal and he was grateful you never pushed to see what’s inside them.

Sometime soon he’ll gather up the courage to show you because he wants to show you how he views you: without any flaw and filled with perfection. He’d study your face and trace over each line with curiosity, wondering just how to capture your beauty on paper.

He’ll get it right someday and that day he’ll show you, but only when it's perfect enough for you. He trained his eyes onto the screen before they had the chance to wander.

You set the moisturizer down once you had enough on your fingers. You watched the show play on as you smeared the cream into his skin. It slid so easily across his features.

A fight broke out on screen as the side character was kidnapped. You chose to swallow your joke, the comment would sour the mood. Kidnappings were something Damian never took lightly. You still got chills when you remembered being kidnapped for the first time, the loneliness, the terror, and the shock. Even the nightmares left you gasping for Damian, even if he slept right beside you.

He came for you every time, but the shake in his voice was something that was burned into your memory.

Instead, you made another comment when the protagonist got hit upside the head with a pole. You winced in feigned sympathy. “That looked like it hurt.”

Damian hummed in agreement. “Head injuries are always the most dramatic. They’re inconvenient and intolerable.”

When a solid layer of moisturizer lay on his skin, you picked up your newest tool: a skin-carving Gua Sha. Damian gifted it to you after he found the one you had been looking for for ages, he didn’t hesitate to make the purchase.

“You seem to be very opinionated about concussions, Dames,” you teased.

“Of course I am, they’re insufferable.”

“Fair enough.” You used the moisturizer as a buffer to allow the tool to glide over his skin, starting from the side of his nose and all the way up his cheekbone, carving out the feature with ease.

Your ears filtered the narration of the show, hearing about the protagonist’s traumatic childhood as you continuously applied slow, even pressure to your movements.

You didn’t comment on it, but you always loved when Damian wanted to show you any kind of media that caught his eye. Manga to movie, they all told you a little bit more about him. He connected with the media the most out of everyone, finding it so much easier to use media as a way to voice things he was feeling or to even understand himself a little bit better. He used it to navigate his life, so of course you learned to navigate it, too.

So you soaked in the backstory, hearing every word that was left unspoken in the space between you and Damian. You calmly carved out his jawline next (not that it needed much carving) because using the tool was fun and you didn’t want to set it down just yet.

You sat in comfortable silence as you finished off the first part of the routine, the episode coming to a close shortly after. Damian clicked some buttons and the next episode rolled through, the opening music filling your ears.

You gathered all the serums back into your bag and grabbed the next part—one Damian is probably going to hate.

“I’m gonna do your eyebrows.”

He quirked an eyebrow up as he looked up at you. “There is no need. My eyebrows are normal.”

“They are,” you spoke, shuffling through your bag, “But I’m just going to clean them up a bit. It’ll look amazing afterwards, I promise.”

“If you believe so,” Damian relaxed back into the pillow, watching the love-interest enter the scene for the first time.

You grabbed your eyebrow spoolie and focused on one of his eyebrows, brushing it downwards as you grabbed for your eyebrow razor.

“This will feel like a scratch,” you warned softly.

Damian hummed, eyes trained on the love-interest as she murdered a room full of men.

“Someone’s swooning,” you sang as you shaved off the misplaced hairs to carve out his natural brows. “I can see you drooling from here.”

“If I could roll my eyes I would,” Damian spoke. “I am merely appreciating her fighting tactics.”

“It’s okay, Dames. You can say she’s hot.”

“I suppose I simply have a thing for hot, powerful partners,” his eyes gleamed playfully but never left the TV—plausible deniability. If you had not spoken this line first, Damian would not have been so bold, but you eased his need to hide his feelings.

You booped his nose with the tip of your spoolie. “Pay attention, you heathen.” His nose crinkled as it tickled him.

You finished shaving in between his eyebrows and wiped off all the peach fuzz with the rag.

“Time for the best part.” You shuffled through your bag once again.

“And what’s that?”

You clinked the tweezers together.

Damian scowled, glaring at the object as if it personally offended him. “This is, in fact, not the best part.”

“Oh? Is the mighty Robin scared of a little manscaping?” you smirked down at him.

He bristled, puffing his chest underneath his crossed arms. “Of course not. I have no fears. Robin will not be defeated by metal twigs.”

“Then this will be a walk in the park,” you beamed.

Laughter was heard throughout the room, your own mixing with the rarity that was Damian’s. As the season finale inevitably came to a close, you settled back into the warmth of his arms, the matching headbands long since forgotten on your heads.

When He Helps You Do Your Makeup ~ Stray Kids Reaction

Bang Chan:

You struggled to hold back your laughter as you looked at Chan just a few centimetres away from you, surprised by how focused he was as he tries to draw your lipliner on for you.

“You’re distracting me,” he mumbled, feeling you staring back at him as he tried to avoid looking up and meeting your eyes.

“It’s just funny watching you,” you responded as Chan moved the liner away for a few moments. “I didn’t think you’d take this job so seriously.”

His eyebrows furrowed as he listened to you, “why would I not take it seriously? I want to make sure that your makeup looks absolutely perfect for you.”

“What do you reckon? Does it look good?”

“I’m not finished yet,” Chan quickly shut you down, “and don’t start trying to get a sneak peak either, you’ve got to wait and then you can see the finished job.”

“Alright,” you laughed as he went to run the liner against the top of your lip, quickly falling silent as he concentrated again.

“Are all makeup models as chatty as you?” He couldn’t help but tease, “being a makeup artist must be pretty tough.”

“Hey, I’m hardly even talking to you.”

Lee Know:

You didn’t quite know what to say as you looked at the job that Minho had done of your eyeshadow in the mirror, especially as you knew that he was watching you study it too.

“What do you think?” He asked you excitedly, feeling pretty proud of the job that he had done to help you with your makeup.

“I have just one question,” you told him, reluctantly turning around to face Minho. “Why does one eye have twice as much makeup on it?”

Minho’s head shook as he took a step closer towards you to get a better look. “Does it? I thought that I’d done them pretty evenly…oh, I see.”

“They’re almost two different colours.”

“Damn,” Minho sighed, turning around and picking up the palette again. “I should probably give this to you instead so you can fix the pretty bad job I’ve done.”

“It’s not a bad job,” you quickly assured him, “I mean my right eye is perfect, if only the left was the same shade.”

“I think I’ll let you carry on doing your own makeup from now on,” Minho joked, taking a step back from you.

“All you need is a bit of practice.”

Changbin:

You didn’t quite know where to look as Changbin placed his hand under your chin, turning your head slowly so that he could make sure that your mascara was even.

“This feels a little more intimate than I was expecting it to be,” he admitted, feeling himself getting a little shy as well.

“You’re sat pretty close right now,” you pointed out to him, allowing Changbin’s hand to guide you around as he made sure that it was perfect.

A chuckle came from him as he turned you, “I can’t check if your mascara is equal if you keep looking down, you need to look up at me Y/N.”

“That’s harder than it sounds Changbin.”

“You’ve looked at me before,” he smiled, meeting your eyes, “just stare at me and admire how handsome I am, that should be easy for you.”

“Don’t make me laugh,” you warned Changbin, hitting gently against his stomach, “I can’t concentrate like this.”

“You were the one that said it would be cute for me to help you out with your makeup,” Changbin told you.

“I didn’t think it would be this close.”

Hyunjin:

You couldn’t help but chuckle as Hyunjin began to run the blender along your cheeks, tickling against you as he tried his best to help you blend your makeup in.

“What’s so funny?” He asked you as he pulled back to check that he hadn’t missed any makeup along your cheek.

“It tickles,” you groaned, pointing into his hand where the blender was, “are you sure that you’re doing this properly or just messing around.”

Hyunjin pointed across to where your mirror was for you to take a look yourself, “it’s blended, even if I’m not quite doing it the right way.”

“It’s never tickled like this before.”

“At least with me blending your makeup, it’s fun for you,” Hyunjin suggested as he began to blend your other cheek too so that your makeup set.

“Don’t tickle me this time,” you warned him as you felt the blender begin to run along your cheekbone in circles.

“I wish that I knew what I was doing to stop tickling you,” Hyunjin smirked, “but I don’t think that I’m doing anything.”

“It’s already starting to tickle again.”

Han:

Your eyes widened as you looked at the job that Jisung had done in the mirror, staring in disbelief as your eyes looked especially to your cheeks that were covered.

“It looks good, right?” Jisung smiled as you turned to look across at him, forcing a smile onto your face as he spoke.

“I told you to go gentle with the blusher,” you reminded him, brushing one of your hands over your cheeks to see if some of it would come off.

Jisung nodded back across at you, “was I not careful with the blusher?” He innocently asked you, “you told me that you like pink cheeks.”

“I didn’t say illuminous cheeks.”

“Perhaps your blusher is a little less subtle than it is when you do it,” Jisung admitted, feeling your eyes shoot a glare back at him as if it were obvious.

“This can’t be saved,” you laughed, looking in the mirror once again. “I look like some sort of clown like this Jisung.”

“I tried,” he sniggered, “but maybe I think next time it’s best if I at least stay away from the blusher, right?”

“That’s definitely going to happen.”

Felix:

You gasped loudly as Felix brought your eyelash curlers to your eyes, cupping your eye as he hurried to move the curlers away, calling out your name in a flustered panic.

“Y/N, are you alright?” Felix quizzed, trying his best to take a look as you turned away from him and kept your eye covered.

“I told you to curl my lashes, not my skin,” you told Felix, hissing several times as his arm wrapped around your frame to try and get a better look.

You refused to budge as Felix’s heart raced, not quite sure of the damage that he’d done. “Are you bleeding? Do I need to take you to the hospital?”

“I don’t know, I’m scared to look.”

“Let me look,” Felix told you, placing his hands over yours, slowly pulling your hands away so that he could see just how badly he had hurt you curling your lashes.

“Got you,” you laughed as he moved your hands away, “you didn’t even get near me to be able to injure me, Felix?”

“Are you serious?” Felix groaned, shaking his head back at you. “I really thought that I’d badly injured you then.”

“I’m sorry, it was too good of a chance.”

Seungmin:

You held the palette out for Seungmin to browse through, a smile creeping onto his face as he admired the many different colours of eyeshadow that you possessed.

“I quite like the nude colours, they always look nice on you,” Seungmin commented, focusing on that particular side of the palette.

“Is there a shade that you particularly like?” You then asked him, knowing that Seungmin hoped that that was already job done for him in helping you.

His shoulders shrugged as he looked over them once again. “Why are you making me decide? I don’t want to end up picking the wrong one Y/N.”

“There is no wrong one in here.”

“Are you sure?” Seungmin quizzed as he hesitantly pointed to one of the darker shades that were in the nude section of your eyeshadow palette. “I think I like this one.”

“Really?” You groaned, watching Seungmin’s smile dropped as he panicked that he’d ended up choosing one you didn’t like.

“I can change my mind,” Seungmin rushed to tell you, but your head shook, closing the palette before he could choose one.

“I’m just messing, I love this one too.”

I.N:

You looked to Jeongin, noticing him hovering just behind you as you pulled out the bottom tray of your makeup unit, finally reaching the finishing stages to get your makeup done.

“You should use that one,” a voice spoke up beside you, pointing into the drawer where Jeongin saw the lipstick that he had bought for you.

“Why don’t you try it?” You offered, picking up the lipstick that he was referring too, handing it back to him and the panicked expression that he wore.

A tentative hand reached out and took the stick from you. “Are you really sure that you want me to put it on? I don’t really know what I’m doing Y/N.”

“Just give it a try, I’m sure it’ll be alright.”

“If you’re sure,” Jeongin murmured, bending down and leaning towards you, popping the lid off of the lipstick. “If this goes wrong, then just so you know, it’s on you.”

“Just think of it as putting balm on,” you tried to explain, “but if you miss a bit of my lips with the colour, then go back over it again.”

“Sure, I can do this,” Jeongin murmured to himself, his eyes narrowing as he concentrated, running the stick along your bottom lip.

“See, it’s not as hard as you thought.”
