◈ glissade w/ @ywsanghyun​​

she likes this part of the festival of ice, getting to skate across the frozen lake and pretend she’s somewhere far away. it makes her feel like she’s floating, with only the blades of her skates keeping her from floating away into the sky. but maybe, she thinks, she gets a little too distracted. at least, that’s what she thinks when she manages to almost run into him in her thoughtful reverie -- skidding to a stop dangerously close to colliding with him. ❝ i’m so sorry--! ❞ she almost squeaks the apology out, shuffling her weight between her feet. ❝ i was just so focused on skating...i wasn’t paying attention. ❞

@ywsanghyun

literally, what’s going on? she really needs someone to explain it to her.

youngae has been sitting beside this hole on the ice for like, at least, two minutes. and other people are enjoying themselves? this feels like an awful prank. of course, she knows what ice fishing entails, but nowhere in her mind did she think it’d be this awfully boring.

she taps the fishing rod with her foot, hoping that’d make it do its magic. how did the fish not freeze down there? that makes no sense at all! youngae drops down from her seat—which is rather comfortable, she must admit—and kneels down in front of her very own personal hole. why doesn’t the ice around it crack too? open up and swallow her whole? but she’s stronger than that. such thoughts won’t scare her away.

and there she is, staring into the freezing abyss that is a nearly frozen lake. just one moment to lose your balance and that’d be your end. but youngae really drops her face down there, hoping to be close enough to spy any passing fish.

the only chance of survival in a crowded place was to keep moving. the moment you would stop, they would capture you in a cruel dance of ‘oh, let’s shove him there’. and minjun had to experience the inconvenience on his own skin – he got an elbow right in his side, and it took him a great deal of self-control – which we can agree he does not have – not to curse. when he finally reached the hot beverage stand, he sighed in relief. he was ready to get his drink, and get out of there, as quickly as possible. but then – well, call it mother faith – he froze in his spot. and it was not because it was cold outside – because holy crap it was – but no. there something bothering him, or shall we say someone? perhaps, she was a someone. even if minjun would have likely called her an angel – forgive his infant state of crushing. the celestial being was chatting with one of minjun’s closest peers from school. his friend and the girl were pretty close, but minjun never got to know her better. he knew she was much younger than him – ‘much’ because he was already of legal age, and a senior, and they did not share a class. there were times when he tried to have a casual conversation with her, but his tongue would get tied – which, for everyone who knows him, is a miracle. so he resorted to a close observation, noting of details – like that cute wrinkle under her eye when she smiled.

he was getting way ahead of himself.

so he did the next stupid thing any minjun does – he grabbed two drinks. as if carrying one drink was not hard enough, considering the crowded space. hot chocolate, he focused on the cup of hot chocolate. he was almost there, he heard her voice, she was laughing. his friend was also laughing, saying goodbye afterward. this was it – it was his chance to formally introduce himself. he eyed her, and glided closer. he glided right into the person in front of her, an older woman – and then when she turned around, oh well. the hot chocolate flew out of his hand, missing his crush by an inch. his facial expression was a mixture between shock and utter anger. the lady excused herself and moved away. minjun was left exposed – naked in the middle of the crowd, with her staring at him.

“that is not the ‘hello’ I planned. did that get you? I mean the hot drink – are you hurt? it is burning hot,” and he knew it was burning, because it got all over his exposed hand – great day to forget gloves, ey? amazing – minjun, the clumsy buffoon. kill me now.

「 icy slope」

starter for @ywjiae

From occasionally greeting the town folks and signing off a few last-minute works, most of his morning was spent torn between his duties as a family man and his professional life. For the first time in his career, he actually would have preferred being in casual clothing and spend the day with his family instead. Especially since this was their first outing as a genuine family since he and Jiae got together. But alas, Minhyuk knew that he shouldn’t complain because of how blessed he truly is. 

With one hand cradled supporting Nabi’s neck and back, the other snuggly wrapped around Jiae’s waist. Dropping a small kiss on the baby’s head before doing the same to his fiance girlfriend, “what do you say about us sledding down the small slopes?” gesturing towards the tiny hill with a few families already about it. “it should be fun, no?” smiling down at Jiae, gently squeezing at her waist.

plots are located under the cut!! please send me an im if you are interested!

glissade any

she isn’t interested in competing in skating at all -- just having fun on the ice. that isn’t to say she’s bad, she’s rather good, considering she’s never taken formal classes. do you try to convince her to enter the competition anyway? do you slide her a little compliment? or do you ask her to give you some pointers, because you’re two seconds from falling flat on your butt again? [ 1/1-3 slot(s) taken ; @ywsanghyun​  ]

duo pref. late teens - early 20s

the last thing jisu wants to do is go sledding by herself -- that’s so not her style. so, she’s decided to drag you along with her -- whether she knows you or not! [ 1/1-2 slot(s) taken ; @ywdaehyun​  ] 

indulge any

jisu’s in a bind. she forgot to bring her money, and now she’s hungry, but it’s way too far to go home and get it. so, here she is, not so subtly begging anyone who will listen to buy her a snack. just a tiny one! please? she’ll pay you back. promise! [ 0/3 - 5 slot(s) taken ] 

glow must not be participating in the competition

both you and jisu have no interest in taking part in the competition -- she, personally, doesn’t want ice cold fingers that sting for hours afterward. however, that doesn’t mean you can’t watch those who choose to! whether the two plan to watch together or wind up running into each other at the event area, it’s time for you and jisu to watch people freeze, talk about their sculptures, and maybe get distracted. [ 0/1 slot(s) taken ]

**+ challenge

@ywyuchen

there’s just something about competition that makes her blood boil. it’s probably the adrenaline.

“yes!” she screams rather loudly once she reaches the end of the hill before some random child. youngae has been eyeing him while they got prepared to slide and, in her head, the girl saw it as a challenge, but the kid most likely had no idea what had just happened. she throws a fist up in the air in commemoration and waits a moment to catch her breath. one thing is to win, the other is to make your way up the hill all over again.

so she pulls the sled up, eyes focused on the white snow below her to give her any form of strength. her siblings are somewhere around there as well, but youngae already got tired of beating them every year—she needs something else. 

she reaches the top, once again victorious, and looks up. between huffs and puffs, her eyes distinguish an image on top of this awfully bright hill. she stares him down. “what are you looking at?”

KARMA // nothing’s gonna f*ck with my love

minjun LOVES snow, and SLEDDING is probably his favourite activity in winter. NOBODY can win a competition with him. at least that is what he LIKES to believe. but you challenge him, and WINTER just got hot. he is ready to FIGHT for his spotlight.

HALLELUJAH // somebody like you that I can dance to this to

SKATING you say? hell YEAH. minjun adores dangerous sports, and NOTHING screams danger like sharp blades on ice. his coordination is NO JOKE, but he might lack some balance. and it is not like YOU have control. it takes ONE wrong move to land in his EMBRACE.

TAKE SHELTER // all your colours start to burn

night time on ICE. he did not have enough of IT. as night FALLS and the show of lights covers the ice, he feels FREE. he forgot that he is not ALONE. you spot him dancing, sliding on ICE and feel the need to JOIN. so, you ask for a SONG and get on ice, challenging him.

VALENTINO // I don’t want your cruel melody - taken by @jisuyw​

a HOT beverage, and a LOT of people laughing, moving, and chatting. minjun spots SOMEONE familiar, and wants to do a good deed – if you WISH a failed attempt to FLIRT a good deed. he buys a hot – SCORCHING – tea and heads towards the person, only to MISS them by an inch when the drink was knocked out of his hands.

SHINE // don’t leave me behind

a friend he NOW calls betrayer shows his/her face at the FESTIVAL. fair enough, PUBLIC event, but minjun thinks it is HUMILIATING. he does NOT remember why they fell out, but he REMEMBERS he has to plan his revenge. so when they INNOCENTLY sign up for ice fishing, minjun does not hesitate to JOIN too. just wait – he is out for BLOOD.

METEORITE // planets start to spin I’m ready to ignite

well, shit. his newest crush asks HIM to help with a sculpture. him, with his HULK hands? oh, boy. he HOPES they cannot see how nervous he is. they start working on the sculpture and – he CUTS a part of it off. he quickly TRIES to fix it before his crush notices his clumsiness.

@ywdongwan​ ( ♬ ) at the ice festival

life has been busy, to say the very least. minjun has been preparing for the blast before his life truly begins. finals were approaching fast and he would never admit that he was nervous – actually, he could feel his entire body get tense just when he thought about it. the festival came as a perfect opportunity to relax. and what other way to relax than with your friends? dongwan was one of the people he enjoyed spending time with, but unfortunately busy schedules did not allow them to meet very often. given the boy was older than him, and way busier with important things – not school – minjun did not insist on seeing him everymeet day. but since the festival was around the corner, he booked – read that as begged – dongwan to come and spend some time with him. he was glad his invitation was accepted.

so, there he was – ice skates in his hands, yellow sweater on, and a pair of ripped jeans which shall not belong on ice. he was waiting patiently for his friend. the moment he spotted dongwan, he ran to him. he was certain the boy got startled by his sudden intrusion, but did he care? sure, a little. but there were other important matters at hand – or in hand.

“we are skating. also, what took you so long? you literally live five minutes away,” minjun was already fired up, excited to skate. he did have the tendency to get overexcited and waiting was not his favourite activity. he grabbed dongwan’s wrist and dragged him to the first bench. his shoes flew off so quickly, they almost got lost in the crowd. minjun tied his ice skates, and looked at his friend. “what are you waiting for? go get a pair!” and he made sure his message was heard – because he did shake dongwan a bit. kids, right?
