Hello LGC people!

I would like to apologize for not being very active on Inho and not being up to date with plotting and event stuffs. Over the course of the past weeks with everything going on with my real life, I've come to the conclusion that I will withdraw from LGC, therefore I apologize to everyone I have a plot with and never got back to reply to. (Also sorry to Inho who never got to live up to his full potential.)

It's been a short, but fun time here at LGC, keep up the work. You guys are lovely and amazing!

I wish you all well, stay safe and healthy until we maybe meet again!

AHRA:

The female had no intention of freeing himself from his arm, not even considering as much. It might’ve looked off to someone who didn’t know them, but as childhood friends, this was simply normal for her. At the same time, now where the thought had crossed her mind, she couldn’t help but feel a little guilty. After all, for him it must simply be a friendly gesture, while he had no clue of how she really felt… or at least she hoped that her emotions weren’t an open book.

“Are you going to say that about anything in the room?” she chuckled, “But let’s check it out anyway, maybe looking for unsuspicious objects could work, too.” Really, anything in this room could be a hint and she still wasn’t any more motivated to get out of here fast than she was at the beginning. Once close to the lamp, she lifted it up and turned it around, gasping as though she’d found a clue.

“This lamp is most definitely suspiciously old,” she said and put it back carefully. As they continued looking, Ahra put special attention into looking at everything with great detail, without actually paying attention to potential clues. She even started wondering how many clues she could already have found, but that still wasn’t a reason to hurry.

“Wow, they’ve really got all kinds of stuff here,” Ahra said afterwalking closer to Inho again. Once the floppy disk was in her hands, she shrugged. “Well, I’m definitely much to young to know what this is,” she answered smiling a little as she flipped the disk around in her hands. “Besides, such old technology would never survive a fall like that, huh?”

Humming he gave her a smirk about her question, before starting to point out that sus looking ball of dust in that corner or another lamp dangling from the ceiling. Inho was a playful guy in nature, but whenever he was around Ahra, he was the most comfortable which easily drove out his childish side. It was as if being at her side would bring back the early memories he collected about her being one of the major reasons he was able to get back onto his feet after falling into the dark pits of misery. Around her, Inho felt safe, warm and cozy. Simply at home.

"Looking for unsuspicious objects though? Sounds like a plan, commander!" He replied, as he looked around, intentionally leaving out the computer, while she flipped around the item they just found. Snorting, he patted her head and snatched it out of her fingers again. "Are you implying that I as the older one, as the 'oppa' should know what this is and how to use it?" Teasingly, Inho nudged her slightly, just to hear his stomache growling.

Wordless, he glanced at his friend. Seems like it was lunch time already. "Uh, Ahra... I'm getting hungry, so time to let your brain shine?" He cackled and gently pushed her towards the pc. "I'm going to pay for our lunch, so let's hurry up, aye?"

&& the sound of my heart

@lgcallie

playing the piano was something that had always felt like it somehow connect him to his late mother who loved to play every day. inho actually didn't remember, when he had started to play exactly, it was like someday he had simply sat down in front of the grand piano that was his mother's treasure and began his journey. there were times, when he wanted to stop, reminded by the pain of how he would never be able to see either of his parents ever again, but after dark days, brighter days would always lead him back. the piano pulled him in magically and to him it was a passion that he was sure would accompany him his whole life, like a guardian angel sent by the heavens.

eventually he began to participate in competitions, dreamt of becoming a famous pianist one day. inho wanted to become that famous, that his name would be known all of the world and would even reach the heavens. one might think that it was simply an unrealistic dream of middle schooler, but his hopes grew stronger with every piano competition he won. to him, it wasn't just a dream. it was a goal.

but even if he had collected some experience throughout the concerts, inho couldn't help but feeling nervous. and as if his teacher was able to read his mind, he returned behind the stage with his grandmother and two more people. politely the boy with the amber-coloured eyes greeted the two strangers, one middle-aged man and a young girl who probably was around his age. "inho, this is han allie and her piano teacher. they will sit in the audience later and listen to your performance." his teacher said, gently pushed him towards the young female. he bowed his head slightly at the piano teacher, before smiling at the girl and reaching for her hand. "hello allie. i hope you'll like my performance. it's a piece i wrote myself."

&& calling jinx

@lgcxjinah

inho was a sucker for weird nicknames. the weirder the name he came up with for his buddies, the better. it was one way for him to express his affection and his closeness to his friends, but some of them happened to get more creative ones than the others. jinah was one of them. not because he felt especially close to her (that spot was still reserved for ahra only), but more due to his tendency to tease her. unluckily, she seemed to like the nickname he had given her, which was probably her gamer's mind fault.

since she was a short, (in his eyes flat-chested) and crazy chick, inho had named jinah jinx, after a league of legends characters who was one of the faces of the game.

"oi, jinx! did you see my boyfriend junghwan somewhere?" he asked, after catching her attention in the cafeteria by lifting his long arm and shortly waving at her. "the two of us promised to have a lunch date together." the older man purred, before putting his arm on her head to lean on her. he obviously had no real romantic relationship with the mentioned male, but the running gag between them and jinah was way too amusing to let go. at least for now. "thought, you as the mistress might know one or two things."

YUNHO:

it wouldn’t have been the first time that yunho’s seen someone scaling the walls of the legacy trainee dorms. it was, however, the first time he’s seen anyone other than himself do it. sure, it wasn’t the most effective method of getting back into the dorms after forgetting the door code - something yunho tended to do quite often - but it definitely drew enough attention from his dorm mates in order to be let back in.

a lockout didn’t seem to be the case today, though, judging by the mask disguising the other male’s face. it wasn’t uncommon to see fans lurking around their dorm building, mistaking the trainee dorms for that of some of lgc’s senior artists. although most of the time, just getting near the trainees was enough to satisfy the more… ‘passionate’ of bunch. still, he never expected any of them to get this bold. scaling the walls in broad daylight? ruthless.

yunho, strangely calm for the circumstances, takes his camera from his backpack and shuffles closer, snapping a few photos while the other is distracted ( he’s telling himself that they’re for evidence purposes in case the situation were to escalate - but he’d keep them more so for his own amusement ). he finally pipes up, lowering his camera with his head at a slight tilt, “hey, if you’re trying to break in, this really isn’t the most discreet way to do it.”

inho was on the athletic side, but nonetheless his attempt to climb the walls was pretty fruitless up til now which he guessed was quite a good thing, as it meant that it was simply hard to break into the dorms just like that. it frustrated him a bit though and while he hanging just one or two meters above the ground, his initial excited mood falling rather fastly, he noticed a shuffling behind him. dropping his ass, while holding onto some bars and dangling down like some monkey, he looked over his shoulder to look at another male holding a camera in his hand.

"and this is not the most discreet way of taking photos of my backside, mate." he replied, while bopping his head into the direction of the camera the other probably had used before. glancing down, he let go of the bars and jumped down from his position. while knocking the dust of his clothes, he took off the mask and wandered over to the other man. "aren't you a trainee here as well?" he asked and blinked at him. "could have simply asked for my butt pics. i would gladly pose for you, bro." smirking, he looked up at the window he had tried to get up to. "anyways..." the taller trainee sighed. "i didn't tried to break in. i just wanted to scare my buddy a bit. nothing special."

as if he wanted to prove his innocence in terms of burglary, he showed the other the mask that was a left over from some costume party. "and you? what did you intended to snap with your camera? i reckon there are better motives than some random guy's ass, right?"

&& lending your bro an ear

@lgcxminseok

inho would say about himself that he was quite good at making new friends, as he was pretty easy going and laid back in terms of friendship. especially with guys it was easy to form new bounds and with his affectionate personality, he had made a good amount of buddies before. and among these buddies bromances had blossomed. minseok was one of them. he loved that bro to the bits. it was fun around him and inho knew that he could always live out his bromance moments with the other.

aside from that he appreciated the other for always having an ear for his whining, especially when it came to his most annoying ex, mirae who also happened to be minseok's cousin who he himself didn't get along with. so who was better to whine about her, when it wasn't minseok?

at the sight of his friend, he lifted his hands and made grabby hands, immediately flopping into the other's arms right after. "minseokkie, save me~ how can one woman be so hard to deal with? she is always obsessing over me... as her cousin, give me tips how to properly deal with her ." he made amber coloured puppy eyes at the other male, as he snuggled into the other's chest. "i always try to escape her wrath, but it's like she senses where i am. she must still be in love with me. but well, who could blame her. just look at me and my stud bod."

&& nine-tailed girl

@lgcahri

he was resting in one of the practice rooms, his phone in full volume sitting in his hand, when she entered. with a nod, he greeted her who happened to be his sunbae and turned down the volume. inho wasn't the greatest gamer, but from time to time, he enjoyed some gaming sessions where he could forget about his struggles and troubles. just as much as he liked to watch videos of streamers who just had a good time. this time around he was watching a few lol montage videos of exciting kills in this season, when ahri came in.

for a moment he remained silent, as he kept watching the video, before looking up at the other. "hey, ahri-sunbae... may i ask you a dumb question?" while watching the video, one specific champion had appeared on screen which had made him wonder in that second. "i know, halloween is over and all, but why didn't you dressed up as ahri from league of legends? wouldn't that have been super ironic?"

which made him wonder even more. "imagine if you could lend her your voice. lgc's ahri singing for lol's ahri. it would be hilarious."

&& colliding into you

MIRAE:

she took a vicious swipe at him as soon as he flicks a finger against her forehead, like a cat prickled enough to bare its claws and shove the sharp edges towards its owner’s face in a violent attempt of wild disobedience. “don’t. touch.” she hissed, hackles raised as she raised herself on the toes of her feet to bring herself a little closer towards inho’s face, teeth almost bared in a bitter smile. “how can i not be, when you never even fucking trusted me as your girlfriend in the first place to be faithful to you? its like you’re making me out to be some kind of wh*re when i’m not, so of course i would be bitter.” she snapped, eyes sharply narrowed. “what do you think i am, a stupid girl that would sit down and take your blind jealousy without retaliating?”

scorn was desperately clear upon her face as he rolled his eyes and sneered at her when she brought up his childhood love rolling her eyes with equal ferverence to match his own as she gave a loud scoff.

“please. i have every right to scorn you and her, especially after realising that you simply took me as a second hand replacement to the one girl you could never get. you couldn’t get the girl you wanted, and so you just settled for the easier second best, and you think that doesn’t allow me to be bitter? not even for a fucking bit? honest inho, get your head out of your fucking ass, and just focus on pining like a fucking puppy over some girl that isn’t going to look your way, instead of misleading people that you actually care for them, when all you just do is want sex from them.” her eyes glittered maliciously, like facets of jewels in the light as she pursed her red tiers together tightly. “though i wouldn’t refute that that is one of your most..stellar attributes. what girl could resist your fucking with them, hm?” she sneered, crossing her arms as she turned, tossing her hair over her shoulder as she sucked in a deep breath to calm herself.

“don’t try to play the man on the high horse, when you know no shit yourself. it portrays you in a terrible light. maybe that’s why you aren’t attractive to that girl of yours. too tainted–” a finger trails down his chest as her lips curled. “too..unlike the prince on a white horse that she wants.” a cackle passes through her lips. “you’re nothing like a dashing prince ready to rescue someone like in the fairytales unlike what you may think, inho. you’re just someone who drags everyone down with you–right into ruin. that’s who you are, and that’s what you will always be.”

how laughable her behaviour towards him was, telling him to not touch her, when she was the one who couldn't keep her fingers to herself. in that premise she was comparable to a majestic cat, always ready to strike and only seeking closeness by herself. lifting his hands and backing away from her, inho frowned at her and her accusations. ridiculous. "hey, hey, shortie. those are words that are forming in your own little head. don't put me in the same pot." he wasn't the type to go around calling others curse words, when he couldn't care less. it's just that in this very case he cared too much to hold himself back. the fear of losing someone, especially someone like her, had been always present to him. not that she would ever understand his reasons.

silently amber-coloured orbs mustered her, as she went on her rant. the two of them had always been prone to fight (their make up sex had been just too good to miss out), but things between them had simply escalated, as soon as she had found out. "cut it out, will ya, woman? stop making me the only one who enjoyed our nights together. are you really taking me for the guy who is able to hook up with just anyone, when there aren't even any feelings involved? a smartass like you should have seen that coming from a mile then, aye?" mirae turned her back towards him, tossing her hair sassily over her shoulders, as he proceeded to roll his eyes. how annoying could someone be? "if you mention my skills in bed just one more time, i'll end up thinking you are underfucked and in heat."

petrified, his facial expression became unreadable. her words were like stabs to his heart, as they wore nothing but truth. no matter how hard he wanted to, there was no way to deny those facts. grinding his teeth he felt his anger flaring up, he hated to feel helpless and confronted with something that was nowhere to be changed. "shut up. just shut up, will you??" he bared his teeth and pushed her hand away, while she trailed down his chest as if they were still as close as before. with a sinister glare he stepped closer to her, finally pushed her against the wall to stop her from talking any longer. "i got it. i am a monster. whoever gets involved with me will end up misery. satiesfied?"

thoughts like these had always haunted him for as long as he remembered. with everything that had gone south in his life, inho had always felt like there had been a curse on him, one that simply destined to live in unhappiness. he had always thought that way. being told exactly that straight to his face though, hurted.

&& my elsa is prettier

JAEHWA:

Going as Elsa for the night was an impromptu idea. Project Origin followed by a worldwide fanmeeting tour and lastly the annual family concert. Jaehwa had been so busy whole year round, time flew and its already the end of October. Well, since she went as Anna last year, no harm going for Elsa this year. She had the costume ready too, borrowed from her roommate who went as the ice queen last year. She should seriously consider planning her outfit for next year after the party.

So there she was that night, decked in the overrated costume while she admired the unique characters others were dressed as. All the talking with people earlier made her parched, hence heading over to the drinks station to grab a drink. She was pouring herself some fruit punch when someone came from behind, brows raised at the sudden appearance of Inho. Snorting at his comment, she raises the glass to her lips to take a small sip before she has the chance to respond. “Why aren’t you dressed as her then?”

He leaned against the drinks station and fiddled with his helmet, as he laughed at her counter attack. Jaehwa was indeed not one to let herself get flustered by a simple comment of his. That's what made him even more eager to tease her more. "Well..." Inho hummed, while pretending to think hard about the right answer to give. Actually, his close group of friends had planned to dress up as disney princesses, but in the end Inho had decided to pick up this character from a video game out of a whim. He knew, he looked hella cool in it, and that was exactly the kind of image he wanted to personify.

"If I had dressed up as Elsa, I would have stolen the show and everyone would have fallen for me. That's way too troublesome to deal with, don't you think? Just imagine the whole company loving you." Snickering, he nudged her shoulder jokingly. He was obviously joking, since even if his face might have looked quite pretty, his tall and broad stature would have given it away too easily. And who in their right mind would wanted to see a muscular snow queen?

"You want to see me wear it, though?"

&& looking for your robin

DANBI:

for pursuing a career that heavily revolves around wearing costumes, danbi still can’t turn down a good opportunity to dress up—why, with her new hair color and everything, the now-redhead was practically bouncing off walls when searching for the perfect costume, especially without the limitations of wig hindering her option, too.

so she eventually settles on starfire, a cartoon character that she manages to remember through childhood nostalgia and a passing web search—but unfortunately, most of the partygoers don’t press her on her knowledge of ‘teen titans’ lore to applaud her costume choice. rather, she’s found herself exhaustingly having to explain herself—that, yes, she is dressed up for halloween and, no, she’s not just wearing a stage costume previously lost in storage.

she’s been standing off to the side for a while, catching her breath and taking in the decorations, as nervous hands flatten purple fabric and dry eyes blink away at green-colored contacts. danbi, despite her initial confidence, finds herself just as alien as starfire’s background warrants her to be, so when someone—she can’t exactly tell who from behind the mask—approaches, a comforted smile pulls at the lines of her lips as she laughs in response.

“who knows?” she replies in a sing-song tone (a vague alluding to the wondering of where, in fact, is her boyfriend?) as she greets him with a grin, a soft nod of her head as her eyes glance over his unfamiliar own get-up for the night. “so i’m just starfire-looking-for-her-robin for tonight… what about you? who are you dressed as for halloween this year?”

as aspiring actor inho made it his task to impersonate the character he was dressed up tonight. in fact he thought that there were quite a few personality traits that reminded him of himself. kyle merkulov was a fun loving character, someone who was seeking the thrill of action and even if he was a somewhat antagonistic counterpart to the hero of the video game "astral chain", inho had always thought that he was the coolest among everone. plus his get up was fancy and eerie looking at the same time, so it was perfect for this night. inho slipped into his role on the spot, let his head tilt to the side, as the led display on his helmet showed a grinning face, while he playfully said: "ah, starfire is looking for a robin tonight? it's a great day to make new acquaintances today, don't ya think?"

holding a hand underneath his chin, he posed in front of her and looked at her rather proud. the costume hadn't been the cheapest, but he guessed it was worth it, considering how well it suited him. "starfire wants to know who the ruler of this turf is? it is i, kyle merkulov, of course." inho loved eccentric characters like him.

he wondered how long danbi would need to find out who was behind the helmet. for now he kept himself entertained by staying in character. snorting to himself, he leaned himself towards her, daring her to get a peek at his disguised face. "what happens if i were to tell you, i might be your robin underneath this mask?

AHRA:

She glared up at Inho when he called her little, but the hint of a smile played around her lips that she couldn’t stop from showing through. Ahra was aware that she wasn’t exactly tall and she didn’t mind, but that wouldn’t be any fun, would it? So she gave him the sour expression just for a moment longer, before looking over the room once more.

“Hmm, how about we look at everything first to see if there’s any patterns or symbols sticking out? And to get a better idea of the layout of the room,” she suggested, chuckling at the mention of his childhood nickname for her. Similar to Inho, the girl wasn’t in too much of a hurry to get out of the escape room overly fast. They didn’t get too spend all too much time together next to training after all, so she’d take every chance she got. “Hmm, there’s so many options, where do we start?” she added, looking over the room again.

The taller man knew well that Ahra would always send him a side glance, whenever he mentioned her height, but as always he found her reaction amusing. He might as well have a thing for short women, though that was another kind of story. His heart fluttered in his chest, as he kept staying close to the other. As a childhood friend he kind of had a free pass of skinship, and while he was happy, whenever he could be close to her like this, at the same time it was like a stab to his heart, since it also meant that she didn't see him as a man, as a danger at all.

"Patterns or symbols, hm?" He asked, before maneuvering his way through the room, while keeping his arm wrapped around her. "Oh hey, doesn't this lamp look super suspicious to you?" Inho wondered in a joking manner, as he pointed at an ordinary lamp that probably existed before the escape room was even created. It was obvious that he didn't put as much energy into seriously looking for clues as he could, but the female seemed to be in no hurry as well. Wasn't it astonishing how well adapted they were to each other? In his eyes they truly belonged together.

While they looked around the room randomly, Inho let go of Ahra sometime and leaned against some kind of box attached to the wall, while his friend was investigating something further. The sound of something falling onto the ground made him blink and he noticed a floppy-disk to his feet. "What the- Did they hide such an old thing at a place like this?" He snorted and bended down to look at the bottom of the box to see if there was something else. Then he handed Ahra the disk, pretending as if he didn't know what to do with it, even though there was obviously a computer to insert it in. "I have no idea what this thingie is, Rara."

&& underneath the nightsky

JUNGHWAN:

now that he thinks about it, it’s been so long since he’s been to a proper stargazing trip. he’ll admit he misses doing it. being in the city does that to a person, he supposes. still, he’s glad to have the chance to go on this trip with inho. they have clicked almost immediately on their first meeting - having a lot of things in common helped them become closer, and when they’ve mentioned about their mutual love for stargazing it only felt natural to just go ahead and enjoy the activity together.

junghwan had most of their stuff tucked in the back of his car. he’s more than excited today, to say the least, and the way he keeps grinning as he drives them towards their destination is a clear indication of that. “I’m excited for our date, too!” he chirps. “I’ve been excited since we started planning today, to be honest,” he admits with a chuckle. he can already tell how much he’s going to get teased for bringing one of those cute looking firefly lights he bought specially for this day. he also brought a few games in case.

oh, thank you! it’s a gift from the folks,” he says with a dimpled smile and a slight heat on his cheeks as he makes a turn. “i look forward to that dalgona! now i have to make sure i make you the best dalgona, too! if not, I’ll grill you some good meat later!” he chuckles. “and oh, it should be? but we can also fold the the backseats later if we ever feel like snuggling here instead of the tent. it should be spacious enough for us!” he chirps as he makes another turn and into their destination. he keeps an eye out for a good parking space, settling on one near the ocean and with a beaituful view and parks there.

“we made it!” he grins.

it's a blessing to meet someone for the first time and immediately feel this kind of bond between each other. the two of them weren't friends for too long yet, but he could tell they had mutual understanding for each other and that was what counted to inho. and who wouldn't want to be friends with someone as dashing and sweet as junghwan. he was a good guy in his eyes (not that he couldn't say that about himself).

the other's dimples look tempting, as he grins during their drive towards their target destination. normally inho would have attempted to touch them, but in this case he kept his fingers to himself, not wanting to distract the other from driving. he cackles, when the other agreed that this was indeed a date between bros. patting his friend's knee, he nodded along, amber-coloured eyes glinting up at the mention of food. "it really kept me going during training, coz i knew that i would have some alone time with my junghwannie soon."

amusing how the other seemed to be oblivious to his innuendos. time to change that. "only meat? no sausages?" he asks, smirking from one ear to other, while leaning against the seat and waiting for the other male's reaction. he is caught offguard, when the other offers free snuggles. it's not like he would ever refuse that kind of offer, though guys would always aim at something more than just snuggles, right?

inho peaks out of the window, as soon as they arrived. the ocean view had always a calming effect on him and when the car stopped, he exictedly opens the door and jumps out to take a deep breath of the ocean breeze. "ah, finally. may our honeymoon start!" the older man snorts, before turning around and looking at the other man. "shall we bring out the stuff, so i can brew us some coffee? i am really carving a cup, right now."

&& my elsa is prettier

@lgcjaehwa

inho leaned against a wall and popped his head out of the heavy helmet. he shut down the led lights within it for a moment, just to save some energy so his costume would survive for the whole evening. taking deep breaths, he looked around and walked over to a table to get himself something to drink. it had been kind of hot underneath the helmet, so he gulped down big sips of an iced beverage, before letting out a sigh of relief. then he looked around again, in hope to find one or two friends he lost sight of amongst the other trainees.

while he was doing so, he noticed a blonde wig that was arranged into a a pigtail. as he let his eyes wander down, he realized the costume the other was going for. with a grin he approached from behind, maneuvered his way through the other trainees, before he was able to slip in front of the female who was dressed up as elsa from frozen. he tilted his head and grinned, as soon as he realized it was jaehwa who was in front of him. inho lifted his hand in greeting, the helmet under his other arm. "hi sunbae! nice costume... though i am sure that my elsa would have looked prettier than yours now."

&& looking for your robin

@lgcdanbi

halloween parties, or costume parties in general were always a place full of surprises, as one could learn about other people's interests and preferences. sipping on his drink, inho let his amber coloured eyes wander across the facility, while holding his helmet by the side. there were quite a few sailor scouts or disney inspired costumes around, and even a giant pumpkin was squeezing it's way through the crowd. he was amused at the sight of the variety of costumes, though he had expected more people to choose spookier get ups since it was the night of vampires, ghosts and ghouls after all.

after finishing his drink, he put his helmet back on, and the led display immediately showed the evil grin of his chosen villain character. without a word he moved past the others, hovered above a few of them, and simply checked out everyone's costume. upon the sight of a rather rarely picked one, he approached danbi who was dressed up as starfire from teen titans. red hair looked quite good on her who was his model senior. although his smirk was hidden behind the helmet, he decided to great the other with a joke.

"jo, sunbae. where's your robin?"
