Kiss Detox
Seventeen AU: 14th member
Jangmi x Haechan (NCT)
Recap: Haechan and Jangmi being smitten for each other. PURE FLUFF
Requested: Yes-ish
janghyuck ALSJAKSJ it's so cute, I need more
Words: 1.5k
AN: Requests are OPEN
I’m sorry for the lack of incorrect posts this week. Girlies dying with exams.
Tumblr media
“I think Wonwoo hates me.”
“What makes you say that?” Jangmi asked, closing her bedroom door.
“He death glared me when I followed you to your room.”
She snuggled next to her boyfriend. “You do realise you’re dating his little sister, right?”
Haechan groaned, falling back on the bed till he lightly hit his head on the wall. “He liked me before.”
“That was before you started making out with me.”
He raised his eyebrow. “Does that mean he’ll like me if we stopped making out?”
“Are you suggesting we stop doing that?”.”
“Maybe we should go on a kissing detox?” Haechan suggested innocently.
“Right… Maybe I should go on an English detox as well.” Jangmi laughed, snuggling closer to his chest.
“Mi-Mi. I’m serious.”
She pulled away from his chest. “Am I that much of a bad kisser?”
“No. No. You’re fine. You’re perfect.” He reassured, brushing a stray hair out of her face. “I just really want them to like me again.”
“And you’re willing to give up kisses?” Jangmi asked with a pout, pretending to be hurt. “Just for those idiots to like you.”
“It’s kind of important that I get along with my girlfriends’ brothers.” Haechan smiled. “Who else can I plan surprises with.”
Jangmi playfully wiggled her eyebrows. “Am I getting surprises?”
“Not if they don’t like me, you won’t.”
She leaned in to peck his lips. “They liked you once. They’ll definitely like you again.”
Haechan grabbed her face as she was pulling away and brought her in for another kiss. This time peppering her forehead with lots of small kisses. “God. I hope they do. Then I can spend more time with you.”
She successfully pulled away this time. “How’s the no kissing going?” Jangmi asked playfully.
Haechan cocked his head to the side. “Technically, it was no making out.”
“Well played.” Jangmi laughed as she propped herself off her bed, ignoring her boyfriends whine. She grabbed a folder from her shelf. “You know how I said I was missing a bunch of your photocards.”
Haechan nodded, even though she wasn’t facing him.
“Well, I found someone who was willing to trade me one of Yuta’s for you.”
She proudly turned around to show him her photocard collection, the cover of the folder reading ‘NCT PC’s’. The space which had previously been empty, was now filled with his ‘2017 seasons greeting’ card.
He outstretched his arm, so she could pass him the folder.
“Your collections’ getting bigger.” Haechan praised, flicking through. “I swear you didn’t have the Johnny one before.” He pointed at the Irregular photocard.
Jangmi smiled, crawling back to her original position on the bed. “The seller gave me that for free.”
“How many of mine are you missing now?”
“Still got quite a lot.” Jangmi sighed. “I need your SM rookies one- but literally no one is willing to sell it. And then I need both your sailor boy outfit ones from ‘we young.’ I have the cute one with you in the glasses thankfully.” She flicked over to that page and took the photocard out of its slot.
“Do the glasses suit me?”
Jangmi nodded. “Literally everything suits you.”
“Everything?”
Jangmi looked away. “Maybe not your bright red bowl cut.” She muttered under her breath.
Haechan put his hand on her knee and gave it a squeeze. “Don’t feel bad for saying its ugly.”
“I didn’t say it was ugly.” Jangmi protested.
Haechan scoffed. “It literally ranks as one of the worst NCT hairstyles.”
“Not as bad as my pizie cut though.”
“I liked yourshort hair. It made you look extra cute.” He bopped her nose.
Jangmi hit him playfully, her cheeks hued after the compliment. Even after a month of dating, and years of being best friends, he still made her flustered.
“Are you saying I’m not cute now?” She asked, trying to distract him from her reddening face.
“How could anyone think your cute after seeing you in ‘Getting Closer.’ You literally looked like you were going to murder every man you laid eyes on.”
“But our last comeback was soft.” Jangmi whined. “I was wearing a massive sweater.”
“Doesn’t matter. I think you’re losing your title as ‘Baby of the 3rd Gen.’”
She rolled her eyes. “To who?”
“Me.”
“Most defaintely not.”
“You should’ve thought of that before writing ‘Getting Closer-’” Jangmi flicked her boyfriend’s forehead, in which he replied with a grunt. “Stop being such a baby.”
“Am I a baby?” Haechan baited. “Because I seem to recall that I was born in 2000. What year were you born again?”
“Mentally a baby.” Jangmi clarified, moving her face closer to his.
“If I was a baby would I do this?”
“Do what-”
Jangmi’s question was interrupted by Haechan pulling her down with him, so that she was lying on his chest- half their bodies off the bed. His arms sneaking around her waist, holding her closely so he could bury his nose in her freshly died light brown hair.
“Let go of me.” Jangmi grunted, trying to pull away.
“5 minutes.” Haechan whispered softly. She could feel his eyes close from beneath her. His eyelashes, tickling her shoulder as they shut.
“Fine. But can we at least move up the bed, so we don’t fall off.”
He happily complied, and they scooted up to the top. Jangmi turned around, so that she was lying on top of him.
“Have you been sleeping well?” She asked lovingly, noticing the faint dark circle around his eyes, that his makeup couldn’t hide.
Haechan nodded, still with his eyes closed.
She propped herself up with one of her arms and used the other to move some strands of hair out of his face.
Haechan opened one eyes, and slowly lifted himself off the bed to give her a quick kiss, before falling back into her blue pillow.
He hugged her tightly, kissing the hair at the top of her head.
Jangmi tensed, and looked up at her boyfriend, once again inspecting his eyebags.
“It doesn’t look like you are.”
“I am.” He replied monotonously.
“Really?” She prodded, poking his cheek.
Haechan sighed, still keeping his eyes closed. “Not really. I think I’ve messed up my sleep schedule for good.”
“How about, instead of going out for a walk later tonight, we can just lie down here?” She suggested.
“Didn’t you really want to see the sunset?” He opened his eyes, looking for her reaction.
Jangmi smiled. “There’ll be other sunsets. You only get the chance to rest now.”
He searched her face for any sign of disappointment or hint of annoyance but was left empty-handed. Haechan pulled her back down onto his chest, and once again hugged her tightly.
She gave in, relaxing in his familiar embrace.
They lay in silence for a while, the hum of the heater being the only noise in the room.
“I’m sorry I’m tired.” Haechan mumbled, into the nape of her shoulder, sending vibrations through her whole body.
“Don’t be. You’re literally the definition of being overworked. You deserve a break more than anyone I know.” She complimented, in a whisper.
“Really?” He asked, his voice laced with tiredness and a hint of self-doubt.
“Absolutely.” She agreed firmly, slightly pushing herself off him, to give her boyfriend peck on his lips.
Haechan whined. “One more.”
Jangmi happily obliged to his demand.
Except this time, the kiss wasn’t as innocent. Haechan pushes Jangmi down on the bed, before repositioning himself on top of her. She gasps at the sudden shift.
Before she had a chance to protest, his lips were locked with hers. He tongue running down the entrance of her lips, to which she parted after a second of hesitation.
Haechan pulled away. “Are we going to fast? We can slow down if you want.”
Jangmi looked into his eyes. She shook her head. “Its fine. Just a shock that’s all.”
With their lips were reconnected. The kiss even deeper than the last, with his tongue running on the roof of her mouth. They pulled apart for air, momentarily, before Jangmi pulled Haechan closer.
“Imagine suggesting not making out with me, only to make out with me an hour later.” Jangmi mumbled jokingly against his lips.
Haechan bit her top lip. “They just need to think we’re not making-”
“Jangmi have you se- WHAT IS GOING ON HERE!”
Haechan scrambled off Jangmi in surprise and fell to the floor.
“Hi Seungcheol Hyung.” Jangmi waved weakly, a nervous smile visible on her face.
“Annyeonghaseyo Seungcheol.” Haechan greeted, pushing himself off the floor.
“It’s sunbaenim to you.” Seungcheol said coldly.
“Is there a party in Jangmi’s room?” Hoshi’s voice was heard echoing through the corridor. Dammit. They must have come back early from their leader line meeting
“Actually Soonyoung-ah, I think she’s a bit busy to throw a party.” Her general leader replied, sarcastically.
Hoshi poked his head around the door. “Doing what? Oh Hi Haechan”
“I’m so dead.” Haechan muttered under his breath.
Jangmi could only nervously laugh in agreement.

Protective Hyungs Pt.2
Seventeen AU: 14th member
Jangmi x 95′ Line ft. Stray Kids
Recap: Jangmi gets angry at her hyungs for being so closed minded
Requested: Yes

AN: Requests are OPEN
Be warned for Angsty SVT
  Jangmi’s Masterlist
Read Part 1 First: Just a tad Protective Pt.1
Tumblr media
Jangmi speed walked out of the room, trying her very best to ignore her hyung’s voices.
“You know better than to leave the main room.”
“Are you really this irresponsible?”
“You could have got lost.”
“Why were you even here?”
“I swear if it was to hang out with that boy who speaks terrible Kore-”
“Rydel Kim.” Seungcheol bellowed, right as she touched the handle of the door which would take them to the main waiting room.
She turned around at the mention of her real name, sucking in a sharp breath. “What.”
“Why did you go backstage?” Seungcheol boomed, his jaw seemingly tense,
Jangmi closed her eyes firmly for a split second, trying to keep her tears at bay. “I told you. I went to see a friend.”
“Stop with that bullshit.” Jeonghan joined. “You don’t even know the guy- he asked for your number.”
She sighed in annoyance. “If you would let me speak, you would know that I went to see Kevin. Not Felix. Kevin.”
“That’s his name.” Joshua muttered under his breath.
When no one spoke, she threw her hands in the air out of frustration. “Are we done here? Can I go?”
“Absolutely not.” Jeonghan declared. “Why were you with Felix and not Kevin then?”
“Because Dino needed to go pee so I waited for him. And then Felix walked by, and I thought it’d be nice to introduce myself.”
“Introduce yourself?” Seungcheol scoffed. “If you’re going to lie, at least lie well.”
“What’s that supposed to mean?” Jangmi asked accusatorily, glaring at him.
“He means how you never go and make friends- you always need us to make them for you.” Jeonghan interjected, replying on their leaders behalf.
“I make friends myself”
“Name one.”
“Mark, Haechan, Kevin, Som-”
“She doesn’t count. Nayoung introduced her.”
“I still named a friend!” Jangmi screeched. She could feel her eyes becoming cloudy.
“Should we chat about this later?” Joshua pointed at the sign saying, ‘keep quiet.’
“Fine.”
“Good.”
“Hyungs!” They all turn to the left, to see Dino walking up to them with the members of Stray Kids.
“Annyeonghaseyo Sunbaemin.”
“Annyeonghaseyo.” Her hyungs bowed back politely, the lack of smiles clearly evident on their face.
“I’m looking forward to your performance today.” Chan grinned, not noticing the gloomy atmosphere.
“Thank you.” Seungcheol replied coldly. “Nice meeting you.”
And with that he walked away, Jeonghan and Joshua right behind him.
Jangmi turned to face Stray Kids. “I’m sorry about them. They’re a bit stressed about our performance.”
“They’re not usually like this.” Dino added.
Seungmin smiled. “That’s alright. We better head of anyway.”
“See you around.” Jangmi chirped, before grabbing Dino’s arm and following 95’ line back into the main room.
“That was weird.” Dino noted.
She grimaced. “I’ll tell you after.”
The rest of the award show went quite smoothly. Her hyungs acted civil, which meant she did as well. No need to escalate the matter further.
In fact, she didn’t even know why they were mad. Because she spoke to Felix? Maybe because she went out of the room. But then again so did Dino?
All she knew was that she wouldn’t be able to fall asleep until the matter was solved. Meaning that was why she found herself on the rooftop of their apartment at 2am with her hyungs.
“Are you going to explain why y’all acted so rudely today.” Jangmi asked, sinking her fingers deep into her jacket pockets.
“I don’t think we acted rudely.”
“You’re joking.” She scoffed. “You acted like the biggest dicks in front of Felix.”
“I admit we didn’t act nicely.” Josh agreed.
“But you did also act irresponsibly.” Seungcheol added.
She nodded. “I‘m sorry. I should have known better after doing this many awards shows”
“You live and you learn.” Jeonghan said, rubbing his hands together for warmth.
“I’ll ask you ne-” She stopped. “Why isn’t Chan here then?”
“Why would he be here?” Seungcheol asked.
Jangmi furrowed her eyebrows. “Because he also snuck out of the main room.”
“What does Chan sneaking out of the main room have to do with you talking to boys?”
Jangmi felt the anger starting to simmer within her. “Wait, you’re not talking about me sneaking out right?” She clarified.
“That.”
“As well as hanging out with the boy.” Jeonghan continued.
Joshua corrected under his breath. “Felix.” Seungcheol glared at him.
“I’m suddenly not allowed to hang out with boys now?” Jangmi asked accusingly.
“Not boys who are clearly trying to get in your pants.” Seungcheol replied, raising his voice.
Jangmi crossed her arms angrily. “That was totally uncalled for.”
“No. What was uncalled for was him flirting with you, and you not stopping it.”
“HE WAS NOT FLIRTING WITH ME.” Jangmi told Jeonghan. “And if he was, I would shut it down.”
“He shouldn’t even flirt with you in the first place.” Jeonghan exclaimed. “You’re his fucking sunbae.”
She held a hand in front of her. “I’m not even going to respond to that cos you’re off your damn mind. A girl and guy can have a civil conversation.”
“Not when he’s staring at you like that.”
“Like what?” She stoped talking- trying not to cry. But it’s too late, she blinked thrice but couldn’t stop the tears that were starting to roll down.
“He’s looking like you’re the most important thing in the world.”
“Why can’t he, Seungcheol?” Jangmi questioned, furiously trying to remove any trace of tears.
“Because-”
“Because what?” she asked firmly. Stepping closer to her hyungs. “And what if he was. Why am I getting punished for his actions?”
“You should have known and stopped it.”
“Instead of standing so close to each other.”
“Why is everything my fault?” Jangmi yelled. Like really yelled. And she rarely, if not ever, yells in anger. Frustration? Yes. But never anger.
Yet here she was, yelling.
“Nothing’s your fault. But you need to learn to read the room.”  Joshua acquiesced.
Jangmi turned to glare at him. “I did read the mother fucking room. And let me tell you what it was completely fine.” She swore in English.
“You guys.” She pointed at her oldest hyungs. She was crying again, the anger and bitterness in her voice a mere second ago was replaced by tears of frustration. “You guys don’t trust me.”
“No. Jangmi. We do trust you. You know we trust you.” Joshua’s voice softened.
“Well, doesn’t seem like it.” She pressed. “You complain I don’t have friends, and then don’t trust me when I decide to make friends.”
“We just want you to make the right friends.” Seungcheol clarified.
Jangmi scoffed. “And you know what’s best for me? I can make my own goddamn decision.”
“You can.” Jeonghan stepped closer. “But as your hyungs, we’re always going to look out for you. Whether you like it or not.”
“But why can’t I be friends with Felix.” Jangmi questioned. “What makes him different from Mark or Sanha or Somi.”
“He’s a boy.” Josh stated obviously.
“Hate to break it to you mate. Mark’s a boy too.”
“But we know his groupmates.”
“You can’t only expect me to make friends with members of your friends.”
“That was what you did before.”
“Yes.” Jangmi sighed. “That’s when I couldn’t speak Korean well. When I was super shy. I’ve been trying really hard to be more outgoing. And for fucks sake. You’ve all told me to be make friends.”
She paused to compose herself. “Do you know how bloody long I’ve waited for to make an Australian friend. YEARS. It’s been 3 fucking years since we’ve debuted, and you’ve ruined my one shot by being jealous bandmates.”
“No ones stopping you from being friends with Rose.” Jeonghan stated, in a matter-of-fact tone.
“Someone’s gender doesn’t dictate if I can be friends with them or not.” Jangmi glared at him. “And once again. You have no right in deciding who I make my friend, through some bullshit criteria.”
“We’re making sure you’re being careful. You’re a girl. Don’t give boys the wrong idea.”
Jangmi raised her eyebrows at Seungcheol, after his last comment. “Don’t play that card with me.”
She tried to ignore the rage which was pulsing through her veins. “Why do I need to make sure boys don’t get the wrong idea? Why can’t they figure it out for themselves? You all have a brain. You can learn to read the room. Why does the responsibility have to fall on me?”
“It’s because you his sun-”
“Don’t give me the sunbae bullshit.” She interrupted Josh. “You know very well I would have been kicked out of Seventeen if I had tried to flirt with Yugyeom or Taehyung of some shit. Their members wouldn’t have been dicks and blamed them.”
Josh sighed in frustration, before pausing to think of his choice of words. “You know what. You’re right. We shouldn’t have put all the blame on you. We’re sorry.”
“We are?” Seungcheol asked in confusion.
“Yes we are.” Jeonghan agreed, his tone a lot kinder than before. “We shouldn’t have freaked out that you were making friends. Especially since we give you so much shit for it.”
Jangmi smiled. “Thank you.”
“Even though it did look like you were flirting, we should believe you when you say you weren’t flirting with him.” He continued.
“I understand how it looked like flirting. But I tell you guys all the time. I’m way more comfortable talking to boy after living with all of you. Girls’ kind of scare me.” She chuckled.
Jeonghan gave a weak smile. “And about the whole blaming you for his flirting was not cool- I think this is a perfect instance of the patriarchy influencing out through process.”
“I see you’re reading the books I got you for your birthday.”
Jeonghan nodded proudly.
Seungcheol cleared his throat. He had been awfully quiet during the other apologies. “Look. You’re our baby sister. And whether you like it or not. We’re not going to be very happy with you flirting with boys.”
“How many times to I have to tell you I wasn’t flirting.” Jangmi groaned.
“We do have to accept it some point, but just know we’re gonna give him a hard time no matter what.”
Jangmi nodded, wiping the tears which were now drying on her face. “I’m sorry for leaving you all and I’m sorry for giving the impression I was flirting, which I definitely was not.”
She stepped closer to them. “Group hug?” Jangmi asked, with her arms outstretched.
Her hyungs happily obliged, and she had never been so thankful for their warmth.
“Guys trust me. I don’t have a crush on Felix. Or Kevin for that matter. Honestly.”
Seungcheol moved her hair out of her face. “Do you have a crush on someone else?” He innocently joked.
“No.” She denied.
She totally did though.

Jangmi’s Masterlist
Tumblr media
“I don’t understand why I need to wear such a short dress when it is the middle of winter.” Jangmi complained, as walked away from the MAMA 2018 red carpet.
DK pulled her closer to him and rubbed his hands up and down her shoulder. “Better?”
“No.” She sulkily crossed her arms over her chest. “Why do you guys get to wear blazers AND jumpers?”
“Don’t complain. At least stylist noona’s were nice enough to give you a sweater dress.” Seungkwan said, as he walked past them. “Did you see Twice behind us? They were literally in mini dresses”
“See…” DK poked her shoulder. “Be thankful you’re in a boygroup.”
“Oh yes.” Jangmi said sarcastically. “I should tell everyone to beat the entire patriarchal system by becoming a member of Seventeen.”
“Maybe we can finally get seventeen members, so no one asks us why we’re called Seventeen.” Dino added, opening the door to the venue.
As soon as they walked in, they were greeted with a chorus of ‘Annyeonghaseyo’s” to which they all politely bowed and greeted back.
DK removed his arm around her, as he walked away to talk to some of his friends. The rest of the group also dispersed, leaving Dino and Jangmi standing in front of the door.
“Red Velvet aren’t here, are they?” Dino asked, scanning the room for a familiar face.
“Nup.” Jangmi replied in English, popping the p. “I think The Boyz are here. Do you want to find them with me?”
Dino put his hands inside his coat. “Sure. Are they here anyway? Don’t the rookies perform first?”
“Good question.” Jangmi started walking to the back of the room. “Only one way to find out.”
Dino closely followed her. “You’re not going to go backstage to the dressing rooms, right? Seungcheol hyung will kill you.”
She abruptly stopped and turned around. “Kill us.” Jangmi corrected, before walking again. “Besides, we can just say we wanted to check in with stylist-noonas about our performance outfits.”
“Fine… But if we get in trouble I’m blaming you.”
“That’s why you’re my favourite.” She laughed, as she opened a door which had a ‘dressing room’ sign hung on it.
“So…” Dino wriggled his eyebrows. “What’s going on with you and Kevin?”
Jangmi turned to face him. “Don’t do that. It’s weird. He’s just a friend.”
He wriggled his eyebrows again. “Just a friend?”
“Ok. Seriously stop. I don’t like him.”
“Mh-hm.” Dino unconvincingly mumbled.
“I’m telling the truth.” Jangmi whined. “I swear on my life.”
“Then why are we going to see him?” He asked.
“Because I barely have any other friends besides SM people.” She replied, whilst scanning a map of all the groups dressing rooms.
“That way.” Dino pointed to the left. “You really only like SM idols and Canadians.”
They started walking through the maze of make-shift dressing rooms.
“It’s a bit of a problem.” Jangmi laughed.
“Do you remember when we were given this tiny make-shift waiting rooms when we debuted?”
“They were so bad. I literally had to change outfits in the bathroom.”
“Wasn’t that because you weren’t comfortable in front of us? Not the actual size of the room.”
“True.” Jangmi nodded. “It should have been illegal to have that much testosterone in such a small place.”
They turned the corner, just narrowly avoiding bumping into a group of boys.
“Annyeonghaseyo.” They greeted, bowing down.
“Oh- Annyeonghaseyo.” Jangmi and Dino replied, bowing down as well.
“We’re Stray Kids.” Chan introduced. “Nice to meet you.”
“We know.” Dino placed his hand on Jangmi’s shoulder. “She’s a massive fan.”
“Oh really?” Changbin asked in surprise. “We’re big fans of you as well.”
“Thank you.” Jangmi bowed again. “We liked your cover of Adore U.”
“Seungkwan was so jealous that you guys got to perform in Jeju-do.” Dino added.
“It’s such a nice place.” Seungmin complimented.
“Also, do you know where the bathroom is?” Chan added quickly. Only then did she notice he seemed to be hopping up and down on the spot
Dino nodded. “It’s next to the door we walked in from. I need to use it as well. Do you mind if I come with you?”
“That’s fine.” Changbin smiled.
Dino turned to face Jangmi. “Are you going to wait here?”
“Probably. Don’t really need to go to the boy's bathroom.” She joked.
“Nice meeting you.” Chan said in English to Jangmi, before Changbin, Seungmin, and he followed Dino out of the maze to the bathroom.
Only then did she realise that she hadn’t even introduced herself properly to potentially her two new Aussie friends.
Jangmi sighed. She couldn’t even ask Dino to mention that she was Australian because her outfit didn’t have any pockets, so she didn’t have her phone on her. And she couldn’t go annoy Kevin because she wouldn’t have any idea where she was.
She was pulled out of her thoughts, by footsteps approaching her to her left.
“Annyeonghaseyo.” She instinctually bowed.
“Annyeonghaseyo.” The boy repeated, looking around frantically.
Only then did Jangmi realise who it was. “You’re Felix.” She switched in English.
Felix stopped looking around. “Yes… I’m Felix.” He replied, with slight hesitancy.
Jangmi’s eyes widened. “I’m sorry. I know your Felix.” She stammered. “I was hoping to see you around today.”
“Really?”
“Yeah! I wanted to meet a fellow Australian.” Jangmi chuckled. “We’re a rare breed around here.”
“Hi.” He continued looking around.
“Are you looking for your members?” She asked. “They’ve gone with Chan- sorry Dino- to the toilet.”
“Oh thank you.” He sighed in relief. “I thought they ditched me.”
“Yeah nah. You’re good. Did you want me to show you where the toilets are?”
Felix took a step closer. “Nah. You’re alright. I didn’t need to go. I was just bored.”
“You’re rookies.” Jangmi laughed. “You shouldn’t be bored. Plus you guys have pockets to have your phones on you.”
Felix rolled his eyes. “Chan thought it would be a good idea to put my phone in Korean so I could improve with my reading.”
“Oh my god!” Jangmi exclaimed loudly. “Wonwoo made me do the same thing.”
“I don’t even think I’m improving. I’m just on my phone less.”
She nodded in agreement. “This might sound random. But I was watching one of your interviews the other day, and I saw Hyunjin speaking with an Australian accent. I was so proud.”
Felix threw his head back and laughed. “I guess that’s what happens when there are only Australians in a group.”
“Josh and Vernon are really killing the vibe with their rhotacized r’s.”
“Earlier today, Woojin asked for water without the r at the end.” He paused for dramatic effect. “Chan and I nearly cried happy tears.”
Jangmi threw her hands in the air. “You’re just showing off now. I get in trouble for not pronouncing my r’s.”
“Should’ve joined Stray Kids.” Felix winked.
“Honestly. The offer sounds pre tempting.”
He leaned against the wall, next to them. “Are you friends with Rosé?”
“Unfortunately, not.” Jangmi pouted. “She’s too pretty, I’m scared to make conversation.”
Felix bit his lip, looking as if he was hesitating to say something.
“How’s your first year as an idol been?” Jangmi asked, leaning her back against the wall.
“Really fun. I love performing, and the adrenaline rush when we go on stage.”
Jangmi smiled widely. “It’s the best feeling, right?” She showed her arm. “If I wasn’t wearing a sweater, you’d be able to see goosebumps.”
Felix laughed. “You’re cute,” before he cupped his mouth shut.
“I’m adorable.” Jangmi corrected, ignoring the blush rising on his cheeks. “How are you finding the schedule?”
“I never thought I could function with so little sleep.” He admitted.
“I have a theory it’s the performance adrenaline.”
“I can’t even complain because 3RACHA are the ones pulling all-nighters in the studio.” The colour was slowly draining from his cheeks.
“Dude! Same here. Everyone’s always producing or choreographing or songwriting. Their work ethic is crazy.”
Felix nodded in agreement.
“I think being lazy is in our blood.” She continued. “I would say terrible skin is also in our blood cos of the O Zone layer- but your skin looks really nice.”
“I’ve been told my freckles are my killing point.” Jangmi laughed, before leaning closer to get a closer look at his freckles.
“They really are pretty.” She leaned back, to her original position. “I just have pimples.”
“But your still beautiful.”
Jangmi looked into his eyes. “Listen. Boosting up my ego has disastrous consequences.”
Felix smiled. “I guess I should boost it up more often.”
“What makes you think we’re gonna chat after today?” She playfully challenged.
“I think we’re enjoying each other’s company.”
Before Jangmi could agree, she heard a throat being cleared in front of them. She looked up to see her leader standing in front of them, with his hands crossed. Only then did she realise how close Felix and she had been. She quickly took a step back and swiped a stray piece of hair behind her ear.
“Why are you here?” Seungcheol commanded, sparing no introduction to the rookie.
“Annyeonghaseyo Sunbaemin.” Felix quickly bowed, speaking much quieter than he did before.
Seungcheol used his time to quickly scan the Sydneysider. He noted his burning red ears and his slightly red cheeks. As well as Felix doing everything to avoid eye contact.
He bowed back, probably in forced politeness. “Annyeonghaseyo.”
Felix definitely could sense the tenseness in the air. “I- I need to… umm.. I should go back to… to the… dressing room.” He stumbled over his words. Cheol’s intimidating aura definitely had played a part to this shift in confidence.
“No. You can stay.” Jeonghan suddenly spoke, coming out of the corner, with Joshua following right behind. “Answer his question.”
“I was saying hi to a friend.”
“What friend?” Jeonghan shot down her point. “I don’t think I’ve seen you talk to him.”
“Annyeonghaseyo Sunbaemin,” Felix repeated.
“Actually….” Jeonghan continued, ignoring the greeting. “How do you know Jangmi?” He asked, turning the question to Felix.
“We met today?” He replied weakly.
“Are you sure about that?” Jeonghan prodded. “Because you don’t seem so sure.”
Felix’s eyes began darting across the room. “Um… We really met today.”
Jangmi groaned. “Stop interrogating him. He said we met today.” She switched to English. “You can find your members. I’m sorry about them” She gestured around her.
“Thanks.” Felix pushed himself off the wall. “It was really nice meeting you. Maybe we can hang out?” He asked hopefully, pulling out his phone from his pocket.
Wrong move, Jangmi thought. Way to read the room.
Seungcheol grabbed her arm before she had a chance to reply.
“We need to go,” Jeonghan answered firmly, on her behalf.
“Good luck with everything,” Seungcheol yelled behind him, as he pulled her away. Jeonghan walked beside them.
Joshua stayed back, for a split second. “Hey man.” He spoke calmly in English. “You’re a rookie, and you don’t want to do anything which will jeopardise your future. Right?”
Felix gulped and nodded.
“Just think of the consequences of your actions for the rest of your 6 members.”
“We actually have 8 other members,” Felix mumbled.
“Exactly. More people to think about.” Joshua spoke seriously. “I’m sure you need to head back anyway. They must be looking for you.”
Felix nodded, avoiding Joshua’s eyes. Even though he was speaking calmly, there was an underlying tone of hostility.
Joshua clapped his hands together and smiled. “See you around.” He cheerily added as he ran up to catch up with the rest of his members.
Weird. Felix though.

Part 2 of Jangmi meeting NCT DREAM, and another part of meeting Jangmi’s Friends
Part 1: SM’s triple threat (Jangmi & Mark (NCT))
Jangmi’s Masterlist
Tumblr media
Another award show. Another backstage room filled with minors who can’t be seen on camera after 10pm.
But this year was a bit different to last year. She had friends. Not many, don’t get her wrong. Jangmi friendship circle outside Pledis entertainment could be counted on one hand. But that was improvement. And she was hoping by the end of this year’s award season, she’d have to include her other hand as well.
There was Chaeyoung, who had debuted with her last year with Twice. She won a daesang this year, and Jangmi wouldn’t stop screaming of happiness.
Then there was Wendy, who she had met randomly in front of the female bathrooms and had been nice enough to translate a sign which said the bathrooms were not in use.
She had met Mark in the minor room at a previous award show, and they had been texting for a while now. Nothing serious, just complaining about practice sessions, failing Korean tests and having a very intense debate about which High School Musical movie was the best (Mark says HSM2 but that’s the wrong answer, and Jangmi won’t hear otherwise).
Sanha was, well, a work in progress. Seungkwan had seen them talking and had decided from that moment that he would make them the best of friends. Meaning, she was dragged into walks with Moonbin, Sanha and Seungkwan. The conversation was getting better, definitely not as awkward as their first meeting, but she’d still hesitate to call him her friend. But she needs 5 friends to fill her hand, so he’ll count for now.
And lucky last Ailee. Honestly, a ray of sunshine. She was already friends with a bunch of the Seventeen members and had happily taken Jangmi under the wing. From hyping her up extra hard whenever they saw each other, to taking her on coffee runs- Ailee was like her big sister. She even yelled at Seungcheol for ordering Jangmi a salad when the rest of the members were eating Ramen. An angel in human form, honestly.
So, with three out of her five friends in the minor room, Jangmi was less miserable. Mark had talked about his members a lot through texting and had invited her to sit with them backstage. She had initially declined but made the mistake of telling Seungkwan who had then grabbed her by the ear and dropped her off in the circle of chairs where NCT Dream were sitting.
“Annyeonghaseyo. I’m Seungkwan.” He bowed while letting go of Jangmi’s ears. “I just thought I’d bring your friend over. She’s shy.” He whispered the last sentence, before walking over to where Astro were standing.
Jangmi awkwardly laughed, while rubbing her ear. “I’m sorry.” She apologised while bowing. “He’s a bit much. I’m going to leave-”
“Oh my god. No.” Mark interrupted, getting up from his seat. “Come sit here, I’ll go grab another one.” He grabbed one of the empty seats near him and placed it next to his old seat.
“Annyeonghaseyo. I’m Jangmi.” She bowed while sitting down, smiling at all the members.
“Oh! You’re Marks’ Australian friend” Haechan said in English.
Jangmi nodded and replied in Korean. “Yes.” She knew that Mark was the only English line member so far- he had mentioned something about more people joining but it was secret information, and he was terrified about getting booted to Canada if he told anyone.
“I’m guessing he’s mentioned us, so I’ll spare the introductions.” The member next to Haechan continued the conversation. “But if he hasn’t, I’m Jeno.”
“I know your names. He’s told me a lot about you guys.”
“Good things I hope.” Jisung nervously laughed.
“Don’t worry. You all must be angels for putting up with Mark and his awful jokes.”
“They are really bad, aren’t they?” Jaemin asked.
Jangmi smiled. “I was just hoping they were just bad because they were over text.”
“You should have heard the one he said today.” Haechan added. “He literally woke me up by asking ‘What do robots eat?’”
Mark turned to face Jangmi. “What do they eat?”
She furrowed her eyebrows. “I don’t know?”
“Bimbimbap!” He slapped her shoulder, while throwing his head back, laughing like it was the funniest thing in the world.
“Uhh…” Jangmi looked at the faces of all the other Dream members, and like she expected none of them were laughing. Haechan and Jaemin was judging the life out of Mark, while Renjun was whispering something to Chenle- probably a translation.
“She doesn’t get it either Mark.” Haechan stated in a matter-of-fact tone. “It’s a bad joke.”
“Bad would be an understatement.” Jaemin muttered under his breath,
“Hey. No.” Mark protested. “You know how zombies go ‘beep boop?’”
Jangmi nodded.
“Well if you say Bimbimbap quickly, it makes that type of noise.”
“Bimbimbap. Bimbimbap.” Jangmi repeated quickly. “It doesn’t sound like that at all.”
Mark playfully hit her leg. “It does.” He whined in English
“It really doesn’t.”
“It does.”
“Does not.’
“It does.”
“Can we go back to speaking Korean here please.” Jeno interrupted.
“She still doesn’t understand the joke.” Mark explained, switching back to Korean
Haechan groaned. “It’s a bad joke. Get over yourself Mark.”
Jangmi nodded in agreement. “Sorry dude, but it’s terrible.”
“Like you can do better.”
‘I could, but I don’t want to embarrass you.”
“Marks the definition of a walking embarrassment.” Haechan lifted up his plastic cup to drink the last few drops of water.
“Hey!” Mark sulked. “I didn’t introduce you guys to make fun of me.”
“It’s because we love you.” Jangmi sweetly smiled, ruffling his hair.
Jeno joined in as well squishing Marks’ cheeks. “Who’s NCT’s cutie pie?”
“Where did you get the water from?” Jangmi asked Haechan, after she was done messing Marks’ hair.
Haechan stood up and pointed somewhere behind him. “Over there. I’ll come with you. I’ve finished my cup.” He waved his cup around.
“Can you fill mine up aswell?” Jisung asked, holding his cup up for Haechan to take.
“Our maknae has no respect for us at all.” Haechan sarcastically complained, while grabbing Jisungs cup. “I’m sure you respect your oppas.”
“Uhhhh…” Jangmi paused. “Not really.” She winked at Jisung.
Jisung gave her a thumbs up. “I like her.”
“You’re a bad influence” Haechan joked, before guiding her out of the circle of chairs. “Maybe I shouldn’t have asked Mark to introduce you to us.”
“So you wanted to be friends with me?” Jangmi playfully asked, as they walked over to the kitchen sink.
Haechan rolled his eyes. “Only so I could become friends with Hoshi and ask him to help me create a dance routine. Don’t think so highly of yourself.”
“Please. Hoshi is ours and only ours.” She paused. “And Nu’ests- but that was only one time.”
“Can we take Woozi then?”
“How about Mingyu?” She made a counteroffer. “He’s a good rapper.”
“What’s the catch?” He asked.
“Nothing. He’s a beautiful, tanned god.” Jangmi confidently replied, stopping when they reached the sink.
“It’s because he’s too tall, isn’t it?”
She turned to face him, leaning over the counter. “I’ve only met for a couple of minutes and you’re already reading my mind.”
“I think this is the start of a beautiful friendship.” Haechan added sarcastically, pouring water from the jug into Jangmis’ cup.
“Thanks.” She took a sip of the water. “But seriously, Mingyu is all yours.”
“No thanks.” Haechan laughed while he filled his two cups. “I’d prefer if we stole you instead.”
“Unfortunately, I’m loyal to the SVT brand. You can’t buy me out, no matter how much money SM gives.”
“We’ll see about that.” Haechan joked, turning around as well, so that he too was leaning on the counter.
“Can I steal Chenle then?”
“Why him?”
“He’s Chinese, so he’ll fit in with our China line perfectly. Secondly, he’s a 2001 baby like me. Meaning that our ‘twin maknae’ term would make more sense cos him and I would be the same age.”
“So you’re not choosing him based on his talent.”
“Oh my god. No.” Jangmi spoke quickly, making her Korean barely understandable. “He’s a really good singer.  That’s my third point.”
“Right.” Haechan nodded unconvincingly.
“I’m serious.”
“I believe you.” He spoke in the same tone as before.
“I’m serious.” Jangmi whined, dragging out the syllables this time.
Haechan just laughed, his eyes twinkling in mischief.
Jangmi caught on to the joke. “You really are insufferable.”
“Did Mark tell you that?” He probed, turning to face her.
Only then did she realise her mistake. “My members… ummm… my members are calling me.” She pointed weakly in the direction where Vernon and Dino were sitting. “I’ve got to go. It was really nice meeting you.” She started walking backwards.
“You can’t escape the question.” Haechan chuckled. “Who else do you talk to.”
“I’m not confirming anything.” Jangmi waved, whilst turning around. “But I’ll give you a hint. He makes really bad jokes about robots.”

SM’s triple threat
Seventeen AU: 14th member
Jangmi x Mark (NCT/ SUPERM)
Recap: The first time Jangmi runs into Mark
Words: 1k
AN: Requests are OPEN:
Thought I'd drop a surprise AU today after 'Favourite' Comeback yesterday! Enjoy :)
You might want to read part 1 first: Friendless (ft. ASTRO)
Tumblr media
Mark Lee. Fucking Mark Lee. Of course she needed to fall into his bloody arms. SM’s new rookie who could spit fire (metaphorically obviously), apparently had the kindest heart (according to the shop unnie’s) and had debuted like 3 times this year.
“I’m so sorry!” She quickly pushed herself out of his arms and pointed at Seungkwan- who was talking to yet another idol (how did he know so many people?). “He pushed me.”
“No worries.” Mark blushed, straightening out his suit.
Jangmi smoothened out her dress as well, pulling her hair over her shoulder. “I’m Jangmi, by the way.” She smiled.
“I know. I’m Mark.” He put his hand out.
Jangmi happily shook his hand. “I’m guessing you know I speak English considering we’re not talking in Korean?”
Mark nodded. “Uh…Yeah. Sorry, I can talk in Korean if you want.” He released her hand.
“Oh my god. No. You’re fine.” She shook her head, laughing. “I’ve been waiting to talk to someone in English for ages.”
“Don’t you have English speaking members though?”
“I’m on an English ban.” Jangmi lowered her voice. “I may or may not have failed my last Korean test.”
Mark chuckled. “I know that feeling too well.”
Jangmi looked over behind Mark, to see Seungkwan giving her a thumbs up and mouthing the words “ask him to be your friend.”
She internally groaned, reminding herself to tell him off for being annoying later. Still, this was probably the best conversation she’d had with a stranger in a while. And she was getting more desperate to make friends and speak in English. This opportunity was a way to kill two birds with one stone.
“What’s the last test you failed.” She paused. “You don’t need to tell me if you don’t want to.”
“A couple of weeks ago. It was a dictation test. Let’s just say my teachers were not very pleased with my score.”
“Weeks ago!” Jangmi yelled, before lowering her voice. “That’s so far away. I literally failed 3 days ago. It was on insects. Like what bloody interviewer is going to ask me a question on insects.”
She took a step back, and held an invisible microphone in her hand, pretending to be an interviewer. “Now Jangmi, what’s your favourite insect?”
She took a step forward, back to her original position. “It’s literally so stupid.”
“They might ask what’s the most poisonous animal you’ve seen in Australia.”
“Listen Mark, I’ll let you on a little secret.” She gestured for him to sleep closer. “Not all Australian animals are tyring to kill you, and the ones which want to are far out in the outback.”
“I see.” Mark nodded. “Might make a special request to never tour the Australian outback.”
“Dang! The dingos and roo’s are gonna be so disappointed.” Jangmi laughed, before abruptly stopping. “How did you know I was from Australia?”
Mark sheepishly didn’t meet her eyes. “I’m kinda a fan.”
“Really!” Jangmi exclaimed. “Remind me to give you an album when we see each other next time.”
“Oh. You don’t need to do that.” Mark quickly replied, shaking his head.
“It’s honestly fine. It’ll boost up album sales.” She joked.
“Thanks.” Mark looked at the ground, shuffling his feet awkwardly.
She paused. She shouldn’t let this conversation die. This was her best shot at making a friend, and then showing them off like a trophy to Seungkwan.
Jangmi kicked his feet, forcing him to look back up, acting like there was not a flatline in the conversation. “I know this is a bit late but congratulations for debuting. I felt so happy when people congratulated me for debuting, and I don’t know if you’re the same, but congrats.”
“Thanks!” Mark replied again, this time with a smile. “I’m even later but congrats for debuting as well. You guys are killing it.”
She grinned. “You’re literally he definition of killing it. Anyone who debuts once in SM is crazy talented. But noo…you go and debut three times in one year. AND YOUR 17. Jangmi winked. “I may or may not be a fan as well.”
He raised his hands up in defence. “You could be getting daesangs at 17, you never know.”
Jangmi scoffed. “Yeah right. I’ll just be happy if I’m not back studying in Australia.”
“Dude same.” Mark agreed, dragging out his words. “Wait no. Not Australia. Canada. It would suck if I was back home in Canada in a-”
“I get it. Don’t worry.” Jangmi reassured, interrupting his mumbling. “We all just want to do well. And you have three chances.”
Mark laughed.
Jangmi took a deep breath. Here goes nothing.
“This might be super weird, considering we’ve literally been talking for less than a minute. But would you like to be my first English speaking friend.” She awkwardly laughed.
“Joshua? Vernon?”
“They don’t count.” She replied harshly. “They’re my brothers- can’t get rid of them unfortunately.”
“You’re planning on getting rid of me then?” He teased, raising his eyebrow.
She sarcastically put her hands up to surrender. “Oh no! You figured it out.”
They both burst into laughter
“I’m down to be friends, by the way.” Mark clarified, after the laughter had died down.
“One condition though.”
“What.”
“We only talk in English.”
“I think we can work with that.” Mark winked whilst laughing.
“So…” Jangmi awkwardly swayed from one foot to the other. “Can I get your number?”
“Yeah. Of course.” Mark reached into his pocket and pulled out his phone, passing it to her.
As Jangmi was putting her number in, she noticed Mark looking over her shoulder, back to where presumably his members were, and making a ‘shhh’ sign.
“All done.” She announced, handing the phone back. “Hope you don’t mind, but I sent a text to me, so I know this is your number.”
“All good!” Mark grinned. “I should probably head back to the rest of Dream.”
Jangmi pointed back to Vernon and Dino, who were sleeping awkwardly. “I should probs head back as well.”
“It was nice meeting you.” Mark waved goodbye. “See you at the next award show?”
“Unfortunately, I’ll be a minor till 2020, so I’ll be back here for a while.” She ran her finger down her cheek, imitating a cry.
“Sucks to be you.”
“Rude!” Jangmi teased, as she turned around back to her members. “See you soon!”
“Can’t wait!”
