So... Jeff Satur announced in the last leg of the KinnPorsche concert that he will be leaving Be On Cloud and go solo. All his work will now be under his own studio, Studio on Saturn.
Its sad seeing everyone crying when he made the announcement. Especially Barcode who, according to the people on the bluebird app, just found out about Jeff leaving. He cried so much. But Jeff assured him that he can still go see him in SOS if he wants and they're still going to South Korea to work on Wuju Bakery. Yes people, its still happening. A lot of people were asking "But what about Wuju Bakery?" Completely forgetting the fact that the drama has a different company producing it (its not under BOC) From what I heard, the S.Korean company producing the drama wanted Jeff in the drama and then Jeff brought Barcode in to be his partner. So JeffCode stans, please chill. Two artists from different agecies working together is not unheard of. While right now it may seem like Wuju Bakery will be their last drama together, there is still a chance that they will work together again in the future especially if Wuju Bakery becomes a hit. So lets focus on supporting them as individual artists and as a unit once again when the drama is released. For now, all their interactions will be offstage.
Jeff thanked everyone and said he still wanna hangout with the others sometime. They will be together but in their own personal time.
Its not a goodbye, its more like "I'll see you around"
Ok, hear me out: Wuju Bakery where neither of the main characters are human.
Alien Jeff does a runner on the night of his engagement. Of course he's space royalty and it's a politically driven match to someone he's never even met. He's skulking around the palace -- eavesdropping on servants a great source of info for an overly-sheltered nosy bastard -- when he accidentally witnesses his betrothed behaving Very Poorly. Then at the formal introduction they're all fake charm and flattery and AJ goes Hell No. He still doesn't mean to run away, he only borrows the nearest spaceship from the royal garage with the intent to go chill somewhere alone for a few hours while he ponders his options. But for some reason his hand stays on the throttle and he doesn't pull out of the ascent when he should; and that impulsive little voice whispers, "What would happen if I just... kept going?"
So he does. Except he made zero preparations and isn't used going anywhere without a cadre of guards and doesn't know the ship; and to evade pursuit he attempts a far too ambitious hyperjump that puts him on a collision course with Earth.
MEANWHILE, baker Barcode is descended from an ancient phoenix lineage. Supernatural beings are becoming increasingly rare in the modern world, with many choosing to blend in and secretly live amongst humans. There is still a hidden but very tight-knit community with its own set of rules, first and foremost of which is to always aid another supernatural being in need. So when AJ stumbles out of the wreckage of his ship mumbling in a language inaudible to human ears, BB goes, Well shit. Let's get you inside before the neighbors notice that you're dripping green blood all over the place.
It takes AJ several days to salvage a translator from the ship. In the meantime he makes life for BB difficult, who tries very hard to carry on business as usual, nothing strange to see here. "Oh him? That's just my, uh, foreign cousin. Who caught a cold and has been told to stay in bed, out of sight," he says through gritted teeth shoving AJ back up the stairs. AJ who is not used to being told no, especially not by a guy who prepares food in his quaint little shop and waits on people like a common servant.
At the same time, AJ is pampered royalty, yet BB just expects him to be able to fend for himself. It's embarrassing when he can't, but also exhilarating that he's permitted to try, and publicly fail, and try again. He's learning so many things! There's no schedule, no duties, no forced decorum or rigid etiquette. Freedom is amazing! And BB is legit nice in a not-paid-to-be, not-sycophantic way that AJ has never experienced before.
Is this a friend? Has he made an actual friend? AJ studies this phenomenon. He keeps notes: Just Human Things. The squeaky sound BB makes when he's happy. The face he makes when AJ brings him a cup of the hot leaf drink AJ finally mastered making. The way his eyes shine with their own fire in low light...
