Get Up
cw: none || era: January, 2023
❀ In those moments of uncertainty, when you don't even know if all your efforts aren't just a waste, Haechan decides to stick with it. Even if everyone has seemed to lose hope and he may be starting to lose hope as well...
Tumblr media
He aimlessly traced patterns on her palm all the way to the centre of her hand trying to drown out the conversation outside the room. He really did not want to eavesdrop, but it wasn’t like he had the choice. The shouts were drilling into his ears like an unwelcome guest forcing their way in.
“As her grandmother I feel like I have the right to have her near before I won’t be able to see her at all!”
“Oh! Now you want to step up and be a grandmother? After shunning me for marrying a foreigner! You wanted nothing to do with me or my family and now we want nothing to do with you!”
“How do you know she doesn’t want me in her life? The whole reason she is in this hospital is because you made her feel unwanted!”
Haechan closed his eyes as if that would help him block the discussion. When that didn’t seem to work he let his gaze fall on Jiho. She looked like she was sleeping peacefully. Too peaceful to Haechan’s liking, but he couldn’t do anything about it.
“Eomma, I know I messed up as Jiho’s mother, but– I want her to be with her family in France. If… if she doesn’t wake up, I want her to be with the people she loves.” Jiho’s mother pleaded with her own mother.
“And what about her members?”
“Do not act like you care about them! This is only about you. You want to seem like a great grandmother, but you couldn’t even be a good mother.”
Jiho’s grandmother scoffed, almost amused at her daughter’s words. “Seems like we have a thing in common after all-”
“Just leave! Jiho’s coming to France with me and her dad and that’s that!”
Although it sounded like that’s where the conversation would end, the mother and daughter pair continued to shout at each other. Haechan could hear the nurses come by multiple times and try to get them to quiet down, but the two were in their own world and didn’t pay any mind to anyone else. Luckily Jiho’s room was in a more private sector of the hospital and despite the noise, Jiho’s mother and grandmother weren’t causing too big of a disturbance.
Resting his head on Jiho’s shoulder, Haechan continued to absentmindedly trace patterns on Jiho’s palm. He made sure not to put too much weight on Jiho’s shoulder or hand, but enough to let her unconscious body know he was there.
“I’m sorry you have to hear them fighting…” He mumbled tiredly. With a quick glance up, he saw the clock nearing the end of the visiting hour. “I wish they could stop as well.”
As if in response to his words, Jiho’s hand softly twitched. Her fingers tensed slightly, making the motion as if closing her hand into a fist before they relaxed again and returned to their normal state.
This movement would have Haechan jumping up, his heart rate would quicken, he’d be speechless before yelling for a nurse or doctor causing a whole commotion in this part of the hospital. If it was the first time he definitely would’ve done those things. He would’ve because he did. A bit over a week ago, that same exact thing happened. Those same exact movements happened and then he did those same exact things. Now, almost two weeks passed and Haechan knew he shouldn’t be excited to see her hand move. Sure, it gave him some hope, but after the fifth time, Haechan knew this wasn’t a sign of her waking up. It just was a sign she was still alive and at least not getting worse. She wasn’t getting much better either.
A hand suddenly appeared on Haechan’s shoulder and his gaze shot up to meet the green eyes that resembled Jiho’s so well. Jiho’s father — adoptive, not biological — looked at him with a soft yet sad smile. He eyed the clock and Haechan gave him an understanding nod.
The idol gathered his things and walked towards the door before stopping at the sound of Jiho’s father’s voice. “Thanks for continuing to come as often as you can…”
Haechan’s English wasn’t perfect but he understood enough to get the gist of his words. These past few weeks Jiho’s father often said a few words whenever seeing Haechan at Jiho’s side. Even when Haechan didn’t fully understand, he always felt the gratitude the father held for Haechan’s actions.
“I know the others are slowly losing hope… I can imagine it must be just as hard for you to stay hopeful as it is for me and my wife, but we thank you for visiting still. Whatever happens to Jiho… she will know you were there for her. She might not be able to say it, but I know she knows.”
A few heavy moments passed after he said that before Haechan responded with a quiet nod. That was enough for the father as he turned away, trying not to show the emotion in his eyes. He turned to his daughter, sitting next to her and fixing the stuffed animal Haechan had gifted her to sit snugly under her arm. Haechan couldn’t make out what he started whispering to Jiho — it was probably in French anyway — so he decided to make his way out of the hospital room.
It was almost funny how now that Haechan was in the hallway where the two women were still bickering and yelling at each other, Haechan couldn’t hear a single word. They were so loud when he was in another room, but now that he was in the same space, it was absolutely quiet. He bowed at them without much thought and intention behind it before leaving. The two women barely noticed Haechan go as they continued to yell loudly at each other. Still Haechan didn’t hear. He wished Jiho didn’t have to hear it either.

message incoming.
| summary | woken up in the dead of night, Johnny answers a terrifying phone call. 
| part | one, part two: message received.
| word count | 1.4k
| warnings | descriptions of a panic attack, stalking
| era | circa. late june, 2017
Tumblr media
The small hours of the morning are usually peaceful in the 127 dorms; the sun not risen enough to disturb those that spent their nights tucked into mismatched beds, chasing rest as a balm for their perpetual exhaustion. Soft breaths keep the silence at bay, the two boisterous boys gone quiet under the allure of sleep.
The scene is altogether tranquil, undisturbed by the pressures and stresses that accompany every waking hour. Still, hushed, and fuzzy at the edges like the world has yet to quite wake up alongside those that lie in repose under the darkness. 
The shadowed room flares up into brightness as the face of a phone lights up with an call. 
Johnny groans as he rolls over onto his side, hand yanking the covers over his ears at the incessant ringing blaring through the bedroom. 
“Donghyuck,” he complains, dropping his pillow over his face to drown out the light burning into his eyes. “Answer your goddamn phone.” 
Donghyuck only grunts a reply, not moving from his cocoon of blankets, face invisible from Johnny’s vantage point. The phone keeps ringing. 
“Donghyuck!” Johnny rolls over again to throw the pillow in his grasp at the ambiguous shape of the boy asleep in the bed next to him. “Pick it up!” 
Any reply offered is garbled into the pillow Donghyuck has his face buried in, but he does begin shuffling beneath the covers; a hand appearing to slowly creep its way towards the phone laid on top of the bedside table. 
But before Donghyuck’s hand can snag his phone, the call cuts out - a cool silence filling up the room once again. 
“There you go,” Donghyuck mumbles sleepily, his hand waving about aimlessly and then darting back under the covers again. 
Johnny drops his head back down onto the mattress - now sans a pillow - and sighs. His eyes are wide open at this point and his limbs are filled with the fight-or-flight response that any ringtone injects your veins with in the middle of the night. Without a drop of sunlight to speak of though, he could only imagine what time of the night it was, and contemplates the merits of just throwing in the towel and getting up to start the day now. 
Another phone ring breaks Johnny’s mourning of his sleep.
“Donghyuck!” Johnny barks, patience wearing thin. 
“S’not mine, hyung!” Donghyuck groans from beneath his pile. This is true. Donghyuck’s phone had been knocked to the floor beside the bed, the screen facing up and altogether blank. 
Johnny looks over at his bedside table, only to realise that this time it is his own phone lighting up with a call. 
His hand meets the cold metal, fingers grasping the phone and lifting it to his face to allow him to squint into the bright light to check the caller ID. Presumably, it is a spam call - or a sasaeng that had managed to get their hands on another one of his phone numbers (he had only replaced it the other week?). None of his members would be calling him at this time of the night (morning?), Johnny is certain of this. They all understand the importance of sleep in this industry, and would be reluctant to disturb another member without the wrath of the devil himself chasing them down. 
Moreover, Johnny knows that at this exact moment, all his members are in their own beds right down the hallway. He had watched them go, one by one, after finishing up a movie they had all watched together, curled up on the couches and the floor. 
Eyes finally adjusting, Johnny takes a closer look at the phone in his hand. 
Aria’s contact name flashes up at him like the glint off steel, and a cold spike of dread slips down Johnny’s back. 
He scrambles to accept the call while simultaneously shoving himself upright in his bed, the covers falling to his waist forgotten. As his thumb slides over the accept button however, the call has already ended and silence swallows up the bedroom once again. 
Johnny can’t call her back fast enough, confusion and concern melding together in a strangling blend of panic. His call is picked up almost immediately, quiet panting down the line from the opposite end. 
“Aria?” Johnny has the phone up to his ear between one second and the next. “What’s wrong? What’s happened, why are you calling me?” His voice is rough with sleep, undercut by the bitter taste of alarm. 
“Oh- oppa, thank god-” Aria chokes herself off with a stuttered gasp, the wetness in her voice causing Johnny to swing his legs out of the bed, feet on the ground before he even realises what he was doing. “Thank you for picking up, thank you thank you thank you-” 
“Aria, what’s happening? Talk to me.” Uncaring of his sleeping roommate, Johnny is on his feet in a moment, banging around the room to tug on a pair of shorts and a t-shirt, one foot already out the door. “Where are you?” 
“I’m- I’m in the dreamies dorm,” Aria’s voice is hushed but still audible, like she is cradling the phone up close to her mouth. Laboured breaths accompany each silence with an ominous air. 
“Why are you there?” Johnny questions, startled, knowing full well that he had watched Aria slink back into her own bedroom in the 127 dorms at half past ten, claiming she wanted to finish up a chapter of her latest book and heading to bed early. “What’s going on, Aria?” 
“I forgot- I forgot to get something that I needed for today- for filming and it was important! So I went to go, to go get it from my bedroom here but-” Aria cuts herself off again, breath coming in much panicked gasps. 
A soft thunk sounds down the phoneline. 
“Aria? Angel, what happened? Are you still there? Aria?” Johnny has one foot in a shoe, and is tugging the other one on impatiently with the laces still tied, phone trapped securely between his ear and his shoulder. “I need you to talk to me, tell me what’s going on, can you do that for me baby?”
On the other end of the line, Aria chokes herself through the beginnings of several cut off sentences, her breath coming shorter and shorter with each wet gasp, a rasp accompanying each rattling sob. “I think- I think there’s-, Johnny-” 
“You think what?” 
Aria goes silent, breaths cutting out entirely. “I think someone’s here.” 
Blood frozen in his veins, Johnny abandons the idea of grabbing a hoodie and swings himself out the front door of the dorms without a passing thought for their neighbours. 
“Someone? Someone asides from the members? Someone you don’t know?” He fires questions down the phone, cursing whoever assigned the 127 and dreamie dorms to separate floors of the same complex. 
Aria whimpers, the sound soft and scared. “Oppa, what do I do, please I’m so, I’m so scared, please please, help.” Her voice cracks over the final words, begs fading out into muffled sobs as she slaps a palm across her mouth. 
Heart threatening to beat right out from between the space in his ribs, Johnny feels something in him crack at the echo of her voice down the line. “Baby, okay, listen to me. Everything is going to be fine, okay?” he sooths, trying to calm his breath while he paces down the stairs at a dangerously fast speed. “Are you safe? Are you hidden?” 
“I’m like, tucked behind the uh, the cupboard in the bathroom.” Aria whispers, sucking in small breaths between the words. 
“Good, that’s good baby, I need you to keep breathing for me. Can you do that for me?” Johnny coos down the phone at her, blood pounding in his ears. 
“Johnny, Johnny oppa I’m scared-” 
“I know you are, but I promised, okay angel? Everything is going to be okay-” 
A splintering crack echoes through the tinny speakers, Aria’s ear-splitting scream following in the next second. 
The phone call drops.

Catching up
NCT 24th member / Dream 8th member
Bee’s Masterlist
“Yuta and Bee have some sibling time”
requested by: anon
warning: yuta tried to give bee a very straight foward version of “the talk”, mention of condoms and such
a/n: Feel free to share your thoughts with me💛
Tumblr media
After Bee and Mark confirmed their relationship, the dynamics inside NCT got a lot more chaotic than usual, and interestingly enough, they weren’t even the ones to tell the rest of the group about it. Instead, they favored telling the dreamies to prevent any awkward encounters, and within a day the rest of the company was aware of it.
WayV was, by far, the unit with the best reaction, since they didn’t really seem to care too much about it and easily got over the news. NCT Dream, as expected, turned into a whole circus with how much they clowned both of them for taking too long to realize their feelings.
Now, NCT 127 had a fairly good reaction to it, by simply joking and asking a few questions. Not that Bee would know about it. She had avoided anyone from the unit for two weeks after Taeyong found her and Mark kissing inside the studio, so by the time she had a full conversation with anyone of them, it was already old news.
“You know, I find it insulting that you only started hanging out with us after you and Mark started dating” Yuta complained from the couch while scrolling through Netflix.
Bee had initially dropped off to hang out with Mark, but after he almost instantly fell asleep, she moved to the living room to see if there was anyone up for watching a movie.
“I used to hang out with you all the time though, these last months we just got too busy for it.” The girl mumbled from the kitchen, focused on finding the expiration date on some packs of gummies she had found in the cabinets.
“You used to hang out on Taeyong and Doyoung’s dorms. Actually, this might be the first time you’ve ever visited us. I don’t blame you though, their place is a lot nicer than ours” He continued craning his neck to see what she was doing “And I wouldn’t eat those, if I were you”.
Putting the gummies down, she looked disappointed in their fridge. Noticing her behavior, Yuta frowned, “Have you not eaten dinner yet?”
“Not yet. We were supposed to order take out, but Mark ended up falling asleep, so…”
“Well, let’s go get something then. There’s nothing new on Netflix anyway” Yuta jumped to his feet and started heading for his room, “I’ll go grab a jacket and my wallet, so we can go”.
“Wait, we can just call a restaurant” Bee tried to reason, feeling like she might have pressured him to leave the house.
“Or we can go to that dumpling place that doesn’t have delivery” He mentioned, making her face lighten up instantly “See, Doyoung isn’t the only one who knows your favorite restaurants”
After he picked up his stuff, and a short car ride, they made it to the nearly empty spot. Sitting by the end of it, Yuta pulled a chair next to hers and instantly opened his arms. “I’m getting my cuddles in, before Mark has you all to himself”
Laying her head on his shoulder, Bee snuggled in closer and laughed, “Mark told me you said this same thing to him”
Yuta laughed and gave her a head pat, “You caught me, but what can I do? Both of my teddy bears started dating each other”.
“Cuddle Jungwoo Oppa?” Raising her head to look at him, Bee laughed once, he rolled his eyes at her suggestion.
“He’s not as squishy as you are” The boy mumbled and rubbed her back for a few seconds before feeling Bee’s belly rumble. Letting go of her, he waved for the waiter, “Sorry, I forgot you were hungry. Let me order something”.
“This is insane” Bee looked amazed at the dumplings before her and took one of them for herself, making Yuta laugh at her full cheeks while she ate it in one bite.
“You know, I could take you here more often if you stop disappearing out of nowhere”
Munching on the dumpling, Bee shrugged, “Our schedules just mismatched, Oppa. I wasn’t doing it on purpose”.
“Right. It’s not like we were recording and promoting the same album for a while” Yuta waited for her to look at him before continuing “I noticed you were trying to stay away from us”.
Lowering her head, Bee mumbled, “I’m sorry”
“But why though? I mean, I just want to understand”.
“It’s kind of dumb” She gave him an apologetic look, “I was trying not to overstep”
“Overstep where?”
“I just noticed whenever you guys date someone, they don’t immediately become part of the group. Of course, the partners still hang around from time to time, but I also think you guys like to spend some time with just the members, like dudes being with dudes. I didn’t want to overstep in your dynamic or anything”.
“You’re adorable” Yuta smiled fondly, making her groan and dive for another dumpling. “I guess you’re right, but from what I think that doesn’t really apply to you. For us in 127 you will always be a NCT member before Mark’s girlfriend, so unfortunately for you, you’ll never get to experience us being put together for the sake of Mark getting laid”.
“Oppa” Bee groaned once again. Yet, Yuta’s smile slowly faded off until he was serious.
Clearing his throat, he inched closer and kept a lower tone, “I don’t want to go there, but I feel morally obligated to for the sake of my mental health. You two know how to keep it safe, right?”
“Keep what safe?” She answered instantly, frowning at his question.
Slightly alarmed, Yuta threw caution out of the window, “Your health. Avoid being parents. Did you two have sex already??”
Choking on air, Bee felt her neck getting warm, while she added his two questions together “Safe. Right. We know how to be safe. And please never ask me that again”.
“Yun-hee, don’t think you're fooling me” He found some enjoyment in taunting her. “Well, if ever needed, there’s a box of condoms on the bathroom. Mark knows about it, but it’s best if you do too”.
“Can we please drop this? I’m not ready to be a teenage mom”.
“Yun-hee, you’re literally twenty”

Eunjae’s Relationships with: NCT Dream
Tumblr media
Mark:
You can’t tell by how close and comfortable these two are now, but it took a while for Mark to get close to Eunjae
When Eunjae was still a trainee she had many high highs↗ but also many low lows ↘ and everything in between
She was very hard for Mark to understand and it definitely took him a second to even approach her
One day Eunjae noticed Mark having a hard time explaining something in Korean to another Korean trainee, so she walked up to them and told Mark to tell her whatever he needed to say in English so she could relay the message in Korean
Ever since Mark grew somewhat curious of Eunjae
She was weird to say the least, but it wasn’t a bad kind of weird at all
So Mark decided it wasn’t too bad of an idea to get to know Eunjae a bit more and he was happy he did because when SM told them she was debuting in NCT they were already close pals
Eunjae sometimes takes his role as the “group’s leader” too seriously and she looks at him as some kind of mentor
Mark had to reassure her that “hey, we’re friends, I’m not more or better than you. I’m just here to make sure things don’t get too chaotic.” Looks at Jeno holding Haechan in a choke hold “Well, I’m trying at least.”
You know how some idols are just weirdly in sync with random things they do?
That’s Mark and Eunjae for you
Eunjae also genuinely laughs at Mark’s dumb jokes (they both laugh super easily) and Dream’s just like: ??? “That’s funny to you?”
Mark’s super proud when he makes her laugh so soft
Talking in English in front of the dreamies to tease/annoy them? YUP! They understand them more now, so they don’t do it often anymore
All in all, super soft, cute, adorable relationship 10/10 would recommend
Tumblr media
Renjun:
Renjun didn’t really like Eunjae that much when he joined SM
She was very outspoken and sometimes it came across as rude to Renjun
He felt like she was using her “seniority” to command other trainees around, but she was just trying to help out
When Eunjae realised Renjun didn’t seem to like her, she felt a bit hurt, annoyed and even confused, because “What did I ever do to him?”
Renjun is also known for not having the most patience some times, so when Eunjae started training with them and was struggling with basic dance moves his patience would run out a bit too quickly and Eunjae would catch him rolling his eyes multiple times at things she did wrong
It actually took the other members telling him he should be more patient for him to actually give Eunjae a chance
He’d start to see how much she actually practised and realised her lack of progress and skill wasn’t because she was lazy or slacking off
After that he felt really bad for judging her so quickly and even though he was just stressed sometimes because of his trainee life, he knew he couldn’t blame his previous behaviour on that
Even though the side glances and eye rolls stopped after that, it took until just a few months before Dream’s debut that Renjun and Eunjae started being actual friends
Now they’re the perfectly balanced duo
Renjun’s directness contrasts Eunjae’s naivety very well
When Renjun runs out of patience, Eunjae either tells the boys to hurry up or she stands by Renjun to “calm him down” or just keep his mind off things until the rest are ready
Also: vocals
You know how Renjun already sounds like and angel, but also loves harmonising with the other members?
Yeah get yourself Renjun harmonising with Eunjae and you’ll believe you’re in heaven
EunJun/JaeJun: A solid “started from the bottom now we’re here”/10 & a “shipname still pending...”
Tumblr media
Jeno:
Out of all the members, Jeno and Jaemin probably understand Eunjae better than she understands herself
While the other Dream members kind of let her do her own thing while looking out for her, Jeno keeps Eunjae in check
You’ll see Jeno motioning to her to calm down (politely) when she (often with the rest of the maknae line) is getting too rowdy, or tell her to pay attention when she doesn’t notice someone else is talking
If necessary Jeno will carefully pull or push her around when they are in busy places to make sure she doesn’t get lost in the crowd
Overall Jeno and Eunjae are pretty chill
They enjoy having calm conversations and love “complaining” about how the other members never help in the dorm
Old grandparents vibes coming from these two and it annoys the other members to the core, but that just more fuel for those two to continue
When the members say that the way Jeno acts sometimes makes him look like he’s the maknae, it’s a 100 percent true
He usually denies it though, but when it comes to Eunjae he secretly loves being babied by her👀
He won’t go out of his way and act cute for her or anything, but he won’t push her away when she coos at him, ruffles his hair or squishes his cheeks
As long as she knows he’s still older than her at the end of the day he’s fine with it
Summarising: “Go be cute somewhere else”/10
Tumblr media
Haechan:
Food is was 100% their love language
They’d sneak out during their trainee and early idol days to get dinner or just snacks
However once she got a lot of hate for her appearance her relationship with food was never the same
Her relationship with Haechan though ;) Still as strong as ever
Outside the usual teasing (which surprisingly he doesn’t tease her that much) he has a huge soft spot for Eunjae
He won’t be too clingy or touchy on camera (because some fans be tripping sometimes yk -_-) but he’s always keeping an eye out for her
During the time that Mark wasn’t in Dream, he, Jaemin and Jeno shared custody of Eunjae
“I’m not a child. I’m only a year younger than you.”
Eunjae is old enough to take care of herself, the boys know, BUT she just has a lot of small little things she does that make the boys Haechan worry about her
Like when she gets nervous and absentmindedly shakes her legs, or when she tries to bite at the skin around her nails, or when she pulls at the loose strands of her hair, or... I think you get the point: A LOT of nervous habits
Haechan is always the one to reach out for her hand or hold her knee so she’ll stop shaking it (They sit together during interviews)
If he didn’t she’d continue without noticing what she’s doing
She reminds him of Mark (a bit too much sometimes) and we all know how Haechan looks at and treats Mark ^^
He’ll purposely say and do things to confuse Eunjae because “she’s so cute when she looks lost”
This is a “I didn’t know Haechan could be so soft for someone”/10
Tumblr media
Jaemin:
Let’s her be her natural weird self
He’s not “normal” either so it’s only fair
Jaemin treats Eunjae the same way he treats Chenle and Jisung
With utmost adoration in his eyes
They have this thing were Eunjae stands in front of him and he only has to slightly tiptoe to rest his chin on the top of her head, or she’ll just stand with her feet a bit further apart (that’s 10 cm of difference for ya)
Jaemin loves holding her in his arms whenever they are doing a live stream together with the dreamies
Like they’ll be completely silent, sitting on the far side of the screen just minding their own business
They don’t necessarily have to be talking, but every once in a while, Jaemin will whisper something in Eunjae’s ear and she giggles and then they continue playing with each other’s hands/fingers and... NOW EVERYONE IS JEALOUS OF THEM (>﹏<)
He’s biased, but Eunjae is the prettiest girl in his eyes
It’s not even about her looks (though she’s stunning), but he just loves her personality, flaws and all
They can gush about each other for hours
Are the ones in charge for cooking at the dreamies (+ Sungtaro) dorm
However it’s usually Eunjae cooking, since Jaemin gave up after the boys didn’t appreciate his cooking enough
They all seem to love Eunjae’s cooking, so she cooks almost everyday when they don’t have schedules, and Jaemin is her assistant
Giving 2Jae a “You’re the apple🍎 to my pie🥧”/10
Tumblr media
Chenle:
If it weren’t for ChenJi, ChenJae would be thriving...
NCT’s official fangirl and fanboy right here
Listen exclusively to NCT songs and know all the choreography to NCT127 songs
They’re always laughing way too loud about dumb stuff
Eunjae would call Chenle her best friend, but she knows Chenle would fake gag at that so she doesn’t 🙃
Chenle acts like Eunjae is his annoying little sister he doesn’t want to have around, but instead of pushing her away he’ll hold her arm and tell her to leave him alone... 🤔 something isn’t adding up here
These two are actually such good friends, but you rarely get to see them alone
This is ChenJiJae domain and Eunjae is okay with being the third wheel
Chenle’s house? We already know Dream just walks in even if he isn’t home, but Eunjae takes it to a whole other level
Even when Chenle isn’t in Korea, she’ll just stay at his house for days
His mother and aunt have adopted Eunjae as if she was their own child
When possible Eunjae even flies to China to visit Chenle’s house/family there and no one even bats an eye to that
They’re actually siblings I’m sure of it
Chenle also likes cooking for Eunjae
Like Eunjae will provide the main dish from their favourite restaurant and Chenle makes the side dishes and then they’ll just sit down in his dining room and talk for hours
Making Eunjae flustered and teasing her is Chenle’s favourite hobby
He’ll throw her under the bus any time (nothing too serious though)
He knows her boundaries really well, so he’ll never cross it and when he realises someone is about to cross the line, he’ll shut them up or be at Eunjae’s side to cheer her up asap
Rating their relationship at a: “best siblings, you wish you were them”/10
Tumblr media
Jisung:
Let’s remember that Eunjae used to be taller than everyone in Dream for a second ㅠ_ㅠ
This boy has no recollection of such a thing...
Goes out there poking fun at her height
And isn’t Eunjae supposed to be older than Jisung??
Jisung doesn’t call Chenle hyung and Eunjae is only a few months older than Chenle, so he decided by himself that it would be weird for him to call Eunjae noona
“I mean, if I called you noona, wouldn’t Chenle have to call you noona too?”
The disrespect  (¬_¬'')
But don’t worry, Eunjae doesn’t actually mind, she doesn’t even notice it and for the longest time Jisung did call her noona
He will however call her noona whenever he wants something
Does it work? Not most of the time
But the few times it does makes it all worth it
He likes it when Eunjae can be herself around them, she usually has to be careful with what she does when she’s on camera
And even though she is older than him, he has this proud smile on his face when he watches her have unadulterated fun
Jisung is Eunjae’s personal dance coach
Her weakest point was always dancing, so Jisung wanted to help her
That’s why they would spent a lot of time after group practise perfecting the choreo they just learned
Fans also noticed in 2018 how Eunjae’s dancing got a lot better and she said it was all thanks to Jisung in one of her VLIVES
Eunjae is literally so thankful for everything Jisung does for her and that results in her spoiling Jisung by buying him food or other things he needs/wants
But~~~ wherever Jisung and Eunjae are, Chenle is always lurking
I’m sorry for all you toll-smoll shippers, there’s only toll-medium-smoll here ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Our maknae and Eunjae get a well deserved “Cuteness overload”/10

[𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐣𝐮𝐧] 𝐢𝐧 𝐚𝐧𝐨𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫 𝐥𝐢𝐟𝐞
— [the night of the shooting for 8lace: chillin in the dream]
word count: 1.5k words
Tumblr media
It was two in the morning, and yet Renjun can't feign sleepiness. His mindless and countless thoughts about everything under the sun were forcing him into a spiral of deep pondering.
Making sure he was quiet, he slipped out of Haechan's embrace, tiptoeing across the bed, descending into the stairs. He opened the sliding door and walked towards the swimming pool, taking a seat in one of the chaise lounges, his head perked, gazing intently at what seemed to be a full moon.
Beautiful, Renjun thought,
Though it seems as it's incredibly lonely.
With his eyes still stuck at the round phenomenon, he focused his other senses on his surroundings: the sound of the cicadas, the subtle rustling of the leaves, and even the silent whistle of the wind.
Renjun began to unwind.
He let his thoughts that he felt too constricted to let wander back inside the house, together with his friends that felt more like brothers, infiltrate his brain—going to and from different perceptions, about the world and the universe.
He saw what he thought to be a planet, and drifted into the aliens outside of this world—where they could be, or what they could be doing at the moment, Are they looking up the stars as I am now?
His eye then caught a glint of a shooting star and immediately his brain was pulled into a pondering on theories—in entropy. He couldn't help it—being lectured on the topic the moment their repackaged album was announced.
A concept about outer space! He jeered, but came to dread about having to learn a bit of its technical aspect.
To be fair, they weren't required to learn the complicated concepts about it (it wasn't as if he was in school anyway), instead assigned to simply watch a crash course on the general stuff.
So entropy, he remembered, the thing about always being in a sense of chaos and disorder.
Renjun scoffed, his thoughts now a little bit more personal as he wondered about his own life, shaking his head at the thought, "Where's the lie in that."
He leaned further, doing a little bit more probing into the limitations of his mind—thinking deeply in attempts to remember what else he learned in that afternoon that he let himself be pulled into a science-frenzy of youtube crash courses.
Eventually, he whispered, "Multi-verse."
The other interesting thing...his mind started to churn.
Multiverse was a hypothetical theory—not quite given enough empirical evidence to be considered a fact, but for Renjun who's interests dabbled more into fiction, it was an interesting thought to entertain—quite possibly a fleeting one, but still a good one.
Multiverse, he repeated once more in his mind.
The idea that there's another version of me out there, he stretched his arms outwards, his palms wide as if reaching something, yet there was nothing but empty space.
He let out a sigh and placed his hands back down, his mind now settling into a quiet hum—the initial overdrive of thoughts fading into a silent buzz.
Head now empty, he let himself relax—his eyes mindlessly focused into the stars in the sky, some of them twinkling.
Renjun felt his lips curl, the typical Seoul skyline too bright to let him truly appreciate and even notice the twinkling stars—unbelievably dazzling and beautiful...
Much like,
He stopped, noticing how the emptiness of his brain was suddenly filling up with dangerous thoughts—thoughts that he tried so hard not to think about, effectively distracting himself with aliens and multiverse, and...
He heaved a sigh, "Fuck."
Fortunately, for him, his spiral into self-destruction was disrupted by a soft click.
Turning his torso, he saw Aiko—tiredly rubbing her eyes as she made her way into his space.
"Fuck me." He muttered with a frustrated tone, though his expression say otherwise.
Immediately, he masked his panic.
"What're you doing up?" He asked in the gentlest tone he could muster the moment the female idol was within earshot.
Aiko nonchalantly shrugged, lying on the lounge just beside him.
With a soft mutter, she responded, "I saw you go out. And when you didn't come back I thought I'd come and fetch you."
She leaned into her sides to observe Renjun—him thanking the gods it was nighttime, the darkness hiding the reddening tips of his ears, no doubt due to the adorable nature of the female in front of him.
"It's still too late to be awake, I was worried."
Renjun was quietly staring, feeling his own heartbeat pound louder to the point that he was afraid Aiko would hear it—that, and he was scared to let himself speak, fearing that he'd blurt out the one thought he'd been repressing the past few weeks.
"What were you doing here?" Aiko asked once more, not noticing his sudden quietness.
Snapping out of his Aiko-induced reverie, Renjun looked back up the night sky—hoping the view would distract him from the person of his dreams (the real view was beside you!).
"Uh." He cleared his throat.
"Just thinking," He started, taking a deep breath in an attempt to calm himself down.
"About what?"
It took him a while to answer, calculating his response,
"Just stuff."
"What kind of stuff?"
Not wanting to reveal how he was close to thinking about her again—the way she smiles, the way she'd huff when she was annoyed, or even the way she'd subtly take care of the members—STOP!, he spiraled back into the thoughts he was having just before all of that.
Mentally patting himself on the shoulder, he responded, "Multiverse."
Aiko hummed, a knowing smile on her face, "So the possibility of another version of this world—of you and me."
She shook her head in amusement, "That's so like you to ponder about these things."
Not paying mind to the backhanded insult, Renjun probed, pleasantly surprised, "You know about the multiverse?"
There was a lazy nod, "You know you're not the only science fiction fan here."
Renjun let out a relaxed chuckle—being able to momentarily forget about his newfound feelings as the banter continued, focusing instead on the conversation he was having with his friend, "That's right, I momentarily forgot you were a nerd."
"Hey!" Aiko feigned a warning, prompting both of them to laugh softly.
"So, what about the multiverse?"
Renjun stopped laughing, gazing into the twinkling stars once more—stars that he knew, or at least believed were more than the freckle of dots they were seeing at the moment.
"The multiverse—a myriad of worlds, I just—I thought of the other me out there." He began, though it being quite a bit of a white lie, knowing that he never even got to ponder into the topic when she barged into his mind space so quickly.
"The non-idol you, perhaps?" Aiko didn't even notice,
Renjun nodded his head, "Yeah, particularly that. I just thought of the possibilities, you know."
"Would I have pursued classical music, went to uni, or done something else." The lie flowed out perfectly that Renjun was convinced he wasn't lying anymore, his true thoughts spilling effortlessly like overflowing water.
A soft breath came from his lips, "I love the limelight, but sometimes I can't help but wonder—"
"The what-ifs," Aiko interjected, her head shaking in understanding.
"I find myself wondering about the same thing often too."
Now this made Renjun snap his head to her face—her side profile as she watched the stars with awe.
"Really?" He asked in a slight daze,
Aiko was never one to complain, never even one to portray her vulnerability so willingly and openly, especially in front of him (it was typically Jaemin she'd go to), so he reveled at the moment.
Aiko waved her hand, noticing the shift in the atmosphere, "It's nothing, just dumb stuff—like what if I did went to uni like you would, but I'd probably fail my first class there." She let out a chuckle, sheepishly scratching her nape.
"That's not true..." Renjun was still staring,
"You're one of the smartest people I know." It was soft, a genuine compliment from the typically sarcastic member; and so Aiko showed a grateful smile.
"Thanks." A simple response; another wave of her hand and Aiko effectively shifts the scope of the topic into a more lighthearted one—or so she thought.
"But if we did go to uni, I would very much doubt that. We would probably never meet anyway, so I wouldn't be the 'smartest person you know.'"
Suddenly, any traces of joy was gone from Renjun's face—leaving a devasted expression that Aiko never saw, "You don't think we'll be together in another world?"
The girl in question hummed, thinking deeply before stating a simple, "No."
She spread her arms out as if showing a distance bit enough for her hands to never meet, "Our real worlds are too far apart from each other, it was KWANGYA that brought us together."
Another lighthearted jab, but Renjun wasn't having it.
A moment of silence passed.
Renjun's mind going into a whirlwind of thoughts before eventually settling on a question, "Then what about another life?"
Aiko spared him a glance, "You mean reincarnation?"
A simple nod.
"That terribly romantic of you, Renjun-ah." Aiko scoffed, her lips curling into a smirk.
The boy shrugged, "So is it a yes or a no?"
Aiko raised her eyebrows, "Why the persistence?"
As if expecting the question, Renjun smiled lopsidedly, "I'm a romantic—persistence is my middle name."
A snort, shaking her head before eventually answering, "A possibility, Renjun, a gray area, neither one nor the other—never a black or white."
He hummed in understanding, satisfied with her response for now.
"I'll take it."
For Aiko, who came back inside after complaining how it was cold, Renjun's retort was nothing out of the ordinary, he'll take it—meaning, he'll take the answer as a concession of defeat into their typical bantering. I'll get you back, she can practically hear Renjun's voice in her head, chuckling as she closed the sliding door, waving gently before disappearing.
But for Renjun, the statement implied something more—something greater.
He waved back, his mind more calm than ever as he let his thoughts wander for the last time that night.
In this life of the limelight—as celebrities who were basically made to shine and glimmer for thousands to appreciate, comparable to the stars in the sky, there was simply too much to lose, and he was too much of a coward to risk it.
But in another life—a life of school and uni, maybe even classical music; essentially, in a life of normalcy, he'd be the romantic. He'd be the one who'd leave notes in the locker, sing the cringiest of love songs, and even stay up all night to plan the most elaborate of promposals (as he heard from Mark's Western movies), all of that and more, for the girl he loves.
In this life, he was content with being friends—with watching her from afar, too near yet too untouchable to truly become his.
But he promises, in another...
In another...
Aiko would be mine.

Looks
Pairing: Jinmi/Justhis
Series: NCT Additional Unit AU
Genre: None? Teasing?
Synopsis: Jinmi gets looked at a lot, but never like this. 
Tumblr media
Jinmi was used to be the center of attention during parties, she knew she was pretty and she knew she was sort after by a lot of people. This wasn’t any different, a party filled with hip hop artists, models and their friends.
Sometimes they would approach and sometimes they would just look but she was aware of it, always. But one look had been on her since she got here, she could feel it all over her skin, washed over her like some sort of claim.
Jinmi was used to the looks, she’s used to the hungry eyes and lustful glares from both men and women. But the way he’s looking at her, it’s something different.
It’s like a gentle primal sensation.
“Can I help you?” She questioned, finally looking at the male as he drew closer.
She thought she’d maybe startle him but he remained straight faced.
“I thought your kind couldn’t drink,” He stated, looking at the champagne in her hand.
She quirked an eyebrow at his reference, sipping her drink, “My kind might be more controlled than yours but that doesn’t mean we all obey the rules,”
“And just how much trouble would you get in if they found out?”
Jinmi tilted her head at him. He wasn’t her type, she went for tall, dignified men, actors and clean looks. His short hair was dyed pink, a simple black shirt with an expensive jacket over it and chains around his neck.
A rapper, obviously.
“I think I’d get in more trouble talking to you than for drinking,” She shrugged with a smirk.
He liked the way she snapped back at him, a similar smirk on his lips as he stepped closer. She was the same height as him thanks to the heels, a hand slipping onto her waist and Jinmi narrowed her eyes.
“And if they saw this?” He questioned.
People were confident, yes, but they weren’t usually this confident.
“Then I think you should worry more about what I’ll do to you,” Jinmi stated, stepping out of his grasp.
She slipped away effortlessly, sipping on her drink and humming to herself. Maybe she should find Sunmi, after all, this was not her scene.

The first meeting between unknown friends
[Era] SM Rookies [Word Count] 991
Acer has been with the company for about 2 years already. It was a big adjustment moving to Korea where he had no known family when he was just 13, but he managed to survive thanks to the odd jobs he picked up.
Now he was the ripe age of 15 and SM had told him about a temporary group that they wanted to debut him in, SM Rookies. The concept was rather simple, a bunch of soon-to-be idols thrown into one group where they can have a taste test on what an idol-life is really like without being legally binded to it. On paper, it sounded amazing. Acer would be able to take on mini versions of idol activities with other trainees that he could potentially be put into a group with. However, after he agreed to it, his mind pointed out his Korean skills or lack thereof. 
Acer, up to this point, was able to fly under the radar and avoid a lot of speaking. It wasn’t that his Korean was bad, he had been told multiple times that he had a good understanding and his accent was the only thing that would give him away. Yet, when under pressure, he faulted.
He had to swallow that fear when he was called to the head office. Acer had been delaying this meeting as much as he could. He wanted to be an idol, yet his brain would mess with him and delay the success he could have.
The cold winter grew harsher by the minute. Despite the two years of experience, Acer always underestimated the winter. So he sported a purple hoodie, skinny jeans and sneakers and ran out of the house after realising he had exactly 30 minutes to get to the SM Building. 
The cold air blew against his face, causing him to shiver as he ran towards the train station, the best part of the commute. He loved how it felt, being alone on a train. The thought of just being blissfully unaware of his surroundings with beautiful scenery was enough to make him the happiest boy in the world. 
Eventually his stop was reached and he rushed out. 5 minutes left and Acer was sure he could make it if he sprinted. At this point, he was thankful he had taken an interest in parkour as he ended up taking shortcuts that no normal human would. Jumping over fences in alleyways, using the wall to make sharp corners and climbing up on scaffolding when possible.
Eventually he made it to the main office, 3 minutes early, sweating and panting while cursing to himself. 
He entered and made his way up to the 10th floor, trying to gather his breath while the lift zoomed up.
As soon as Acer left the lift, his search began for the designated boardroom. He took in his surroundings. Everything looked the same, white walls with plants spread around, small cubicles in the centre seemingly abandoned for the day, the boardrooms separated with tinted glass making it impossible to see into the rooms.
Eventually he made it to the boardroom. He stood outside with his hand touching the doorknob. He gathered what was left of his courage and entered the room.
The room contained a fancy rounded table, spanning the room and seeming to fit at least 6 to 7 people. A large whiteboard was mounted on the wall closest to the door, it seemed too clean for its own good. Plants were scattered around the room, gathering light for the large windows, looking down at the city below. Acer took it in until he saw a boy around his age, looking down at his phone. Acer couldn’t help but feel embarrassed and quickly made his way to sit a few seats away from the boy. The seats themselves were padded on the bottom with the backs being pure plastic. 
They sat in silence, until a loud voice spoke out.
“SM Rookies?” Acer turned to the voice, finding it coming from the boy. He had pretty messy hair that was slightly curled that seemed brown, but Acer really couldn’t tell. His eyes shined with expectation, to Acer he looked like a kitten waiting for their food.
“Umm, yeah” Acer stuttered out, before silently cursing himself.
“Cool! I’m Lee Donghyuck, or Haechan, I’m also one of the new additions”
“I’m Yang Min Joon, but please just call me Acer”
“It's nice to meet you! Let’s hope that we have a long-lasting partnership”
As soon as Donghyuck finished, the door opened and 2 men walked in, the high-ups. They explained the concept in more detail and announced that they would debut on the 17th of July with a few activities needing to be done before then as a celebration. They quickly left after spending only a few minutes, leaving the door open for us. 
“Well, that’s good news” Donghyuck yawned,
“Yeah, totally worth the 30 minute commute for a 3 minute talk” The both laughed.
“Oh Acer, what’s your number?” with that they exchanged numbers, with Acer naming Donghyuck as  ‘☀️이동혁☀️’  on his phone.
Both boys made their way down to the ground floor, talking about various things that came to mind, with Donghyuck asking every question.
“I can’t believe you're older than me, '' Donghyuck said defeatedly.
“It’s only by a year. It could be worst” Acer laughed.
“I guess, but you’re just so short that it makes me look way older than normal” He laughed out.
”Oi, I’ll get my growth spurt….eventually”
“You can always dream, even if it won’t happen” They continued to walk out of the building with Acer making sure to give him a light punch to the shoulder while they both smiled from ear to ear.
They waved good-bye at the front and walked opposite directions. With a new friend at his disposal, Acer began the long, cold, trip home with a smile plastered on his face.

Trust Me One More Time
genre: angst, parent!au pairing: Haechan x oc, Haechan x female!oc, idol!Haechan, ex-idol!oc cw: (bad) parenting; arguing; talks about "giving up"; this is a really heavy fic (imo) with a heavy but hard to explain plot without spoiling it all, if u read this fic, feel free to stop whenever you feel uncomfortable
This is NOT part of the same NCT addition!JiHo AU. Think of this as an alternate version of that universe or part of the imagine series I have done so far under 'writer.answers'. If you are stumbling upon my blog for the first time, this is a standalone fic u can read pretty much without knowing anything about my oc.
❀ Being new parents isn't easy. Still being able to care for his child while being an idol, Haechan can't seem to understand the mother of his child's struggles.
Tumblr media
“Don’t cry, baby,” the new father cooed as he walked towards the cot, having just returned from work. He leaned over the bed to find his son’s restless body. Despite not being able to move much, the little baby had mustered all his strength to reach his tiny arms out once he saw his father. “What’s gotten you so upset?” Haechan asked with a pout as he brought the baby up in his arms. “Let’s get you something to eat.”
Haechan ignored the figure on the couch as he decided to retrieve a bottle of milk for his child first. When he returned to the living room he sat down on the couch, still skillfully handling the baby in his arms and started to give him his milk. “There you go,” he whispered softly before turning to the mother of his child.
“Why didn’t you feed him?”
An exhausted, emotion-filled sob left Jiho’s lips. “I tried, but he wouldn’t eat,” she told him while she still didn’t make eye contact with him.
“How long ago was that?”
“I don’t remember.”
Silence filled the rather dark room, only lit up with a small yellow-toned table lamp. It wasn’t a comforting silence. The tension between the two adults was only thickening, so much so that it seemed like Dongmin—their child—felt it as well. The 4 month year old had stopped drinking for a significant amount of time, causing Haechan to look back down at him which seemed to comfort him as he started to drink again. “So what? Were you planning to let him starve? He’s eating just fine now.”
“It wasn’t that long ago,” Jiho whispered again.
“Maybe he’s scared because you’re acting like that.”
That's where the conversation ended for the moment. Haechan finished feeding the baby and moved him to the nursery where another cot was. He waited for Dongmin to fall asleep before returning to the living room, where Jiho still sat.
“This is exactly what I mean,” he sighed and blatantly motioned over her form. “You’re sitting there like you’re straight out of a horror movie. With your hair in your face, wearing the same clothes that you’ve been wearing for a week now. Jiho!” he suddenly yelled her name, getting her to look at him. “Get a hold of yourself.”
Haechan was almost begging her at this point, he was getting tired as well.
“I tried—”
“Try harder! This isn’t just any child, this is our child.” By now, Haechan had kneeled down in front of her. “You’ve always been amazing with children. What’s different now?”
“He’s… our child.”
Haechan shook his head as if he was in disbelief and moved even closer to Jiho. He pulled her legs down off the couch away from her chest and wrapped his arms loosely around her waist. “All the more reason for you to love him. You love him don’t you?”
“He doesn’t like me.”
“It’s only been 4 months, Jiho,” he told her as his hand softly caressed her lower back. It had become a habit since during the last months of her pregnancy she always complained about her lower back and he always gave her massages for it. “You just need to spend more time with him—”
“I’m always here! Haechan, I’m the one who gave up on being an idol for this. I’ve been with him ever since—”
“You never call Dongmin by his name.”
Jiho pushed Haechan away and threw her head back in annoyance. Once she sat back straight, causing Haechan to see her face again, he could see that angry tears were running down her cheeks. “Your son hates me.”
“He’s our—”
“HE’S NOT MY CHILD!”
Those words took Haechan by surprise. In his shocked state he couldn’t even notice Dongmin starting to cry in his nursery—probably having heard the commotion from his parents. “How could you say that?”
“I had to give up everything! I stayed with him ever since he was born and did everything for him because you said we could do this. You said we would be great parents. I— I’m not a good mother, Haechan,” she confessed.
“I can’t get him to eat anymore. He won’t take bottles from me, he doesn’t even like me holding him. He cries the whole day if you aren’t here. How can I be a good mother if he doesn’t even like me?”
At this point Jiho had crashed onto her knees on the floor and started sobbing. The Jiho that was crying in front of him wasn’t the Jiho Haechan used to know. She wasn’t the girl—now woman—that he once fell in love with.
“Then try harder.”
Hearing those words, Jiho looked up at him in disbelief. Haechan was hovering over her with a hard to read expression on his face.
“What?” Her voice sounded a lot smaller than she expected it to sound.
“I’m not here to work the whole day, to provide for our son only for you to sit here and cry because you’re having a hard time feeding him. Maybe if you breastfeed him like the doctor told you to, Dongmin would trust you more.”
Confusion washed over Jiho as she didn’t expect Haechan to suddenly turn on her and sound so condescending. “What are you talking about? You knew I never wanted to breastfeed even before he was born. You knew this.”
“I want to help you Jiho, I really do. I know that we should’ve been more careful, that you put your trust in me and it’s my fault that we have a child now, but Dongmin is beautiful. He was an accident, but he’s the happiest little accident that I cannot get myself to regret. I know I broke your trust before, but ever since we found out you were pregnant I’ve never left your side. Can you please trust me again? We can do this together, okay? Isn’t that enough?”
Haechan had pulled Jiho closer to him, holding her by her forearms as he asked for her trust once again. However, Jiho started to shake her head.
“It’s not enough, Haechan. I’ve been scared ever since I found out I was pregnant. I’m still scared and you haven’t acknowledged it until now. Hell, I still don’t know if you realise it. The only reason I haven’t— the only reason I went through with it all is because it’s made you happy.”
“I—” Haechan stopped himself from speaking, feeling frustration rise in his body once again. “Let’s talk about this during dinner, okay? You order whatever you like. I’ll go check on Dongmin, we woke him up again.”
Jiho didn’t respond, but Haechan didn’t wait for a response anyway. He had already turned to go to the nursery, where he found his little boy crying once more. The baby was a bit fussy, but instantly calmed down once his father picked him up and swayed him around for a bit. “Your momma is a good person. She’s just really scared and appa hasn’t been very patient or considerate of her. Don’t tell her I said this, but I still love her very much.” Haechan chuckled a bit at how pathetic he sounded, but quickly shrugged it off. He placed a soft kiss on his son’s forehead before placing him back down in his cot. Dongmin fell asleep instantly.
Haechan took a little moment to regain himself before walking back into the living room. “Jiho,” he called out for her, but there was no response. “Jiho?” When she still didn’t answer and he couldn’t see her when peering through the door to the kitchen, Haechan decided to look through the whole house.
He checked Jiho’s room first. Haechan had never stood still by the fact that her room was pretty much empty since the first day they moved into the house. It had none of her personality and although Jiho was more of a minimalist, Haechan remembered how her dorm rooms from the time she was still an idol were filled with little trinkets. She used to always hold onto meaningful—and even meaningless—gifts from the members and fans. This room only held a bed, a dresser, a bookshelf and a chair she would read those books in.
Moving on—not forgetting to knock on the bathroom door and checking if it was empty—Haechan walked through all the rooms in the house until he reached his own bedroom. His room was right next to Dongmin’s nursery, only separated by an ensuite bathroom.
“Jiho?” He pushed the door open hoping though not expecting Jiho to be inside. As he predicted, there was no one in his room. He looked around and noticed the two pictures on his dresser. One of them was of him and Jiho while they were still coworkers. They were younger, though not by much and they seemed incredibly happy. The second picture was of them a few weeks after Dongmin was born. Haechan was the one holding Dongmin while Jiho sat next to him. She looked visibly tired in the picture, something that Haechan hadn’t noticed before. He also realised that in every picture that they have together, Haechan was always the one holding Dongmin. The only exception being the picture of when the doctor handed Jiho Dongmin when he was just born.
Returning to the living room, Haechan had dialled Jiho’s number, hoping she would pick up and explain she was just picking up some food at their favourite Thai place down the street. Something stopped him dead in his tracks though, when Haechan noticed something missing. It took him a second to clock what he had seen—or had not seen—before he set out in a panic.
The sweater he was wearing the whole day and had dropped on one of the chairs in the living room when he returned from work was missing. He walked towards the front door and Jiho’s shoes—the ones that she could slip onto easily whenever they decided to go on a quick walk—were gone. “Ji…”
With a deep, shaky exhale, Haechan slipped on his own shoes and ran towards the neighbours door. At the urgent knocks on the door a woman in her mid to late 30’s opened the door and asked what was wrong. “Mrs. Choi, please look over Dongmin for a while. He’s sleeping in his cot in the nursery.”
Mrs. Choi nodded quickly. “What’s wrong? Where is Jiho? Is everything okay?” she fired the questions as soon as she noticed something must’ve been horribly wrong.
“I don’t know, I— I’ll be back,” Haechan yelled out in a hurried stuttering mess before running down the stairs towards the street.
He started taking off to that favourite Thai place over there, only to be confronted by the sign he forgot about. Closed permanently in big black letters letters on the door. “God damnit,” Haechan cursed, turning around and starting to run the other way, not knowing where to go.
“Haechan?” A familiar voice stopped him.
With a relieved sigh, Haechan ran up to the old owner of the Thai restaurant. “Sir, have you seen Jiho?”
“Your wife?” Not having the time to correct the older man, Haechan nodded. “I’m sorry, Haechan. I haven’t seen her. Why? What’s—”
“I’m sorry! I have to go!” Haechan yelled as he hurried further down the street continuously trying to reach JiHo’s phone that she wouldn’t pick up.
Sweat was beating down his face and if he wasn’t so preoccupied with other thoughts, he would’ve thought he was close to having a heart attack with how hard his heart was beating. “Jiho!”
When he finally reached the park he frequented with Jiho and Dongmin, he stopped to catch his breath again. He took a few moments, his hands were shaking violently.
“Jiho… I— You’re an amazing mother. If there’s one thing I want you to know, then it would be that you are the bravest woman I know. You trusted me despite me giving you the life you hated. Yet you still stuck with it. You still try to take care of Dongmin despite having a hard time. If you were a bad mother— You would’ve given up by now, but you didn’t.
“I don’t deserve you, Jiho. But— Dongmin needs you. He needs a mother like you. Please… Jiho please don’t give up. I love you—”
Beep beep beep~

( 💌 ) LOADING … SOOYOUNG WITH NCT DREAM!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
🧸 MARK — SOOLEE
you can always see the two of them harassing one another (mainly sooyoung bullying mark) and other times it’s just mark being embarrassed by sooyoung’s antics (and embarrassed he followed along) mark always blames sooyoung for being a “bad influence”, sooyoung blames mark for being a follower 🤷🏼‍♀️. mark can really bring out her sassy side and her soft side all at once <3 whenever the two of them are alone, mark likes to just talk to sooyoung about anything, he loves to just listen to her ramble. he will always protect her, and always ignores sooyoung when she says “you don’t need to worry, im all grown up!” 💔.
mark is a blessing and a curse to sooyoung. when sooyoung is feeling really anxious in situations, mark’s random and awkward jokes that make no sense always make her feel better. she loves hearing him trying to give good advice without knowing what he’s talking about, it makes her feel more confident in herself to let her irrational thoughts go. but, at the same time, when her and mark spend hours rambling, sometimes mark can go too deep in wondering and send sooyoung into a rabbit hole of stress. he always makes it up to her and talks her out of if <3.
a special moment nctzens adore :: *dream was vlogging in the US during their tour* sooyoung was attempting to order her own meal by herself, and mark was so supportive towards her! he gave her a big smile and thumbs up, lovingly pinching her cheek. off - camera, mark gave her the biggest hug known to earth!
🧸 RENJUN — SOOJUN
sooyoung ADORES renjun. she loves his controlled / quiet chaotic personality and how he can make her smile without having to say a thing. she loves loves to just spend one on one time with him just be present in the moment. when they are alone together, it’s just a mix of them being quiet and relaxing, and them sooyoung trying to get renjun to do something with her. for example, sooyoung was begging renjun to go grocery shopping with her FOR HOURS, just because she didn’t want to go alone. renjun was being so stubborn, but he eventually agreed because sooyoung looked so sad when he told her no for the 1021819 time. he is a sucker for sooyoung, and she knows it.
sooyoung and renjun are super close though! they love to take walks together or paint together, anything that can relax them and allow them to decompress. sooyoung loves loves to hug renjun and he pretends like he is only tolerating it but…his favorite hugs always come from sooyoung! but don’t let his softness for soo fool you, he WILL harass her just like he would anyone else, and his patience with her is CONSTANTLY being tested 😭
a special moment nctzens adore :: dream was behind the scenes of a photo shoot, and SOMEHOW sooyoung had retrieved a bubble wand, and was skipping around blowing bubbles near all of the members - renjun especially. everytime she came near him he kept giving her the side eye, and kept trying to take the bubble wand away, but to no avail. this girl had a death grip 💪💪. so, like most friends would, renjun CHASED HER until she dropped and let go 😭😭
“AHHH RENJUN IS COMING TO GET ME!! SOMEONE HELP!!!” …. “ARE YOU ALL REALLY GOING TO ABANDON ME?!?”
rather than tackling her, renjun just wrapped her in a hug and lifted her off the ground and carried her back to the backstage, plopping her onto a chair and telling her to “stay” like she was a puppy 😭. minutes later you could see sooyoung laying her head on his shoulder watching him play games 🥺
🧸 JENO — SONO
THE CATS OF DREAM!!! jeno is the black cat while sooyoung is the hyper orange cat…jeno watches in the distance while sooyoung inevitably creates chaos…then joins in. he always has a protective arm around her, especially in public. he is always worrying about sooyoung, if she’s feeling okay, if people are being creepy, or if she’s going to get hurt.
he will always make sure he walks behind her when they are leaving, ensuring that no one harassing sooyoung. he always holds her heels for her when her feet hurt, and even carries her down the stairs when she doesn’t feel confident in her pumps. he is sooyoung’s #1 defender…don’t mess with his demonic bestie.
a special moment nctzens adore :: sooyoung was running around the house in a 8CHILLIN episode, and you could just hear jeno repeatedly yell “you’re going to fall, sooyoung” or “YAH! SOOYOUNG!” … and when she finally slipped, jeno was the first to her side. he cradled her head, worried that she cracked it open, but only sighed when he saw the girl stifling her giggles. “oh sooyoungie…what am i going to do with you.”
🧸 HAECHAN — SOOHYUCK
haechan is constantly doting on sooyoung and sooyoung EATS IT UPPPP. she lovessss affection (platonically) and never turns away from haechan when he’s trying to hug her…she just pushes him away when he tries to give her a cheek kiss 😭 despite haechan being older than sooyoung, haechan is 100% sooyoung’s baby. he will always call out for her or go “sooyoungieeeee, im hungry” and sooyoung will immediately go get him a snack. she loves loves to pat his head and sit next to him because he is just so WARMM. she always calls him her personal heat box 🥰 she will do anything for this boy, and she will always defend haechan even when he is clearly wrong 😭
the two of them together though when on reality shows…CHAOS. haechan and sooyoung will team up and sooyoung is all of the sudden ALL FUELED and ready to FIGHTT. haechan will encourage her and he LOVES to see sooyoung be super energetic and determined to win or do whatever the goal is…he acts like a proud dad around her constantly 😭 the two of them as pairs will leave everyone roasted…but it will be a great show!!!
a special moment nctzens adore :: dream was at a fan sign event where the building ridiculously cold…and poor sooyoung was dressed in a skirt and a thin shirt, our love was FREEZING. she couldn’t stop shivering and she just kept moving around the stage to keep herself warm. haechan, seeing that the stylist weren’t going to offer sooyoung anything to atleast be a little warm, took his sweatshirt off so sooyoung could wear it 🥺. he also demanded that sooyoung had a blanket to cover her legs when sitting - because yk, sm doesn’t care 🙄. he felt so bad, he held her hands until they were warm enough and didn’t complain when she clinged to him to stay warm 🥺
🧸 JAEMIN — SOOMIN
jaemin and sooyoung have a veryyy special bond! the two of them have always been super close, jaemin was the first nct dream member that sooyoung got close to - and their bond just got stronger and stronger!!! jaemin always says that sooyoung is his boost of energy, and there is soooo much evidence of this. whenever dream are playing games and jaemin gets tired, all he needs is sooyoung next to him and her big, energetic smile, and he is back in the game!
these two can communicate with only their eyes, nctzens swear. there are countless of threads of jaemin and sooyoung communicating silently…and always doing weird stuff after. sooyoung and jaemin spend the most time with each other…so they know everything. everything. the two of them are always gossiping and spilling tea about eachother on vlive…which always ends with them calling eachother and fake fighting 😭
a special moment nctzens adore :: jaemin and sooyoung are so thoughtful of each other, they always remember everything about each other, and love to suprise eachother with things that they’ve mentioned in passing. jaemin once saved up his money for months to buy sooyoung locket after their debut, because sooyoung had recently lost the one her brother gave her, and she was devastated. so, he bought her a new one, and placed his favorite picture of dream in it for her <3. she wears it so often, and she has never changed the photo.
🧸 CHENLE — SOONLE
01 LINERS!!! BESTIES!!! even though sooyoung and chenle are the same age - chenle was timid to approach her when they first met. sooyoung was so bubbly and energetic, and while he was too…he wasn’t used to working with one girl out of a group full of guys. he always over anaylyzed his interactions with her because he really wasn’t sure how he was feeling about the whole ordeal. but - sooyoung understood. she gave chenle time and eventually, chenle warmed up to her after he saw how lovely she was 🥰
the two of them together…NEXT LEVEL OF SASS. chenle will try and mess with sooyoung and be dramatic, but sooyoung will NOT TOLERATE IT. she will 100% COME FOR HIM. they will bicker about everything, but it’s all out of love!!! jaemin is always saying “NO FIGHTING, NO FIGHTING”….which leads to sooyoung and chenle fighting more just to mess with jaemin 😭
a special moment nctzens adore :: sooyoung had bought coffee for all of the members - and surprised them all when they were doing a group live! sooyoung had two coffee carriers, her dance bag, and was trying to somehow hold onto her food bag without dropping the coffees, and as soon as chenle saw sooyoung he hopped up and practically took everything from sooyoung, leaving her with only her food 🥺. he also gave up his seat on the couch to stand so sooyoung could sit and be cozy 🥺
🧸 JISUNG — SOOSUNG
sooyoung and jisung are getting into all sorts of trouble, although it’s less of them pulling pranks on others…more just like them having bad ideas and executing them. when they were trainees and they were able to spend time at dreams dorm, they were always pulling all nighters together, then complaining when jaemin dragged their butts out of bed 😭
they are also BOTH SO CLUMSY. the members always joke that they have to have constant supervision 😭😭. sooyoung also messes with jisung so much, she will convince him that random things are true - and he will 100% believe her 😭. sooyoung always feels bad when he starts telling other members and they are just like ?!?, so she eventually tells him the truth
a special moment nctzens adore :: sooyoung was vlogging for her relay cam, and sooyoung decided she was going to go in jisung’s room to bug him. she expected to find him sleeping because it was like three in the morning…but this man was still awake gaming. so, sooyoung sat next to him in his bed and watched him, making fun of him when he lost. eventually (after ten minutes) … sooyoung fell asleep and jisung had to take over the relay cam cuz this girl wouldn’t wake up 😭. but nctzens LOVED how jisung gently moved her so she was actually laying down and tucked her in.
“nctzens…i don’t know where i’m going to sleep now….i guess the floor now.” poor jisungie 😭

Make A Wish
cw: none || era: January 1st 2023, New Year
✿ After years of silly childish New Year's wishes, Minnie shares her New Year's wish with Kun who wouldn't want anything else but make that wish come true
Tumblr media
“Five! Four!” The sound of multiple voices counting down to midnight filled the living room slash balcony of the dorm where members of WayV, staff and friends had gathered. Excitement and cheerfulness was audible in those voices and sensible in the mood everyone carried.
“Three! Two One! HAPPY NEW YEAR!”
Kun was quick to look at the younger girl at the railing of the balcony. Her eyes were big and innocent — something Kun wasn’t all too familiar with. Minnie usually had a rather stoic look to her. Even when she was around friends and family, she would never show her full emotions. Seeing her eyes sparkle as she watched the fireworks go off in the distance made Kun’s heart full.
As to not startle her, Kun quietly cleared his throat before softly placing a hand on Minnie’s shoulder. She turned towards him almost instantly, but her eyes lingered on the pretty colours in the sky. “Happy New Year, Minnie,” Kun told her softly.
A soft smile appeared on her face as she echoed the same words at him in response. “Isn’t it beautiful?” She pointed at the sky in a childlike manner. Her finger followed the fireworks that caught her attention and Kun could swear he heard her giggle.
In his trance, being completely fascinated by this different side of Minnie he had never seen, Kun forwent an answer. Completely unintentionally at that, but it remained silent on his part.
“It’s been a while since I saw fireworks like this.” She looked at Kun again who eyed her questioningly. “With Covid and being busy or tired on holidays like this, you know?” Kun nodded in response. “My dad and I always made New Year's wishes as we watched the fireworks on New Year where I grew up.”
Kun chuckled softly when he noticed the red tint high on the girl’s cheeks. She was a bit embarrassed to share such cheesy stories of her childhood, but she knew Kun always appreciated things like that. Especially when they came from her.
“Did they ever come true?”
Minnie laughed, thinking back of her wishes. “Yes. Yes, they most definitely did.” The man’s eyes widened in curiosity at her rather surprising answer. “Wasn’t really hard if I always wished for silly little things out loud so that my dad could make sure my wishes came true.”
Both the members laughed with each other for a moment before Kun asked her some examples of her wishes.
“Usually they were dance lessons. Or tickets to concerts. Sometimes just toys,” she told him. “The only time my wish didn’t come true was when I wished for a puppy… I got a dog plushie instead.”
Kun laughed loudly at the story, imagining a young Minnie asking for a puppy. “If that was the only unattainable wish you had, your father must’ve been really happy to have you as a child. Not wishing for insane things.” Minnie nodded with playfulness. She wasn’t exactly saying she was the perfect child, but admitting that her childhood wishes were overall very reasonable. “Any wishes this year?”
Minnie scoffed inwardly, casting her eyes on the floor for a second before looking back up at her leader. “I thought about one, but this might be the first unattainable wish I’ll make,” she told him with a bit of sadness lacing her words. “Minus the puppy, of course.”
She tried to lighten the mood, but Kun wouldn’t let the conversation end there. “Tell me, maybe I can make your wish come through?”
Minnie nodded mindlessly, carefully considering Kun’s request. She turned back towards the sky, but during their conversation, the fireworks had become more sparse. Kun took a step forward and took his place next to the girl. His arm rested against hers sharing some of his quickly decreasing warmth.
The newly shared heat between the two caused Minnie to relax. She didn’t realise it, but she needed the comfort and she gladly would lean into it.
Literally.
She rested her head against Kun’s shoulder. There was barely enough height difference for it to be comfortable though and the older of the two noticed this. He straightened his posture and placed his arm around her to accommodate her. Minnie smiled against his sweater, inhaling the scent that was so Kun. It was so warm and cosy and it made her lose all control over her will to keep things to herself. “I wish that this year WayV doesn’t have to struggle as much as in the last few years. I wish we can all be happy and perform in front of people again without worries. I hope we will have many albums and more projects to show our fans.
“And I wish we can all do it together.”
Minnie smiled and closed her eyes, leaning further into Kun’s warmth. She ignored how his body froze for a few noticeable seconds before he tightened the arm that was loosely slung around her waist. He was pulling her closer and then rested his head on hers.
“I’ll do everything in my power to make your wish come true.”
The girl smiled, but shook her head against the warm sweater of her friend.
“Leader-nim,” she said in a stern voice, but giggled right after. Kun turned his face so he was just able to see the smile on her lips and he hummed softly against the crown of her head.
“You already do more than enough.”

Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Summary // Talia grants Jaehyuns wish
Characters // Talia Flores + Jaehyun ( ft. Allen, Chan, Karma, Song-ho)
Era / Year // Feburary 2017
Tumblr media
Talia never really cared for her birthday, it’s never something she’d look forward to. Even now, birthdays only really reminded her of bad times. It’s not like it’s just her day either. She shares it with her twin brother Miguel which she doesn’t mind. She loves her brother so there was no need to dislike her birthday, especially right now as she has a new life without all that abuse and torment, but yet she doesn’t feel excited. The energy from her members didn’t really reach her, so she fondly smiled at them appreciating their excitement for the day of her birth even though she wasn’t. It made her feel warm that there were people who are glad she was born. 
Yes, her other friends did celebrate, but since they were all going through their own things when they were younger there wasn’t much time to celebrate but more like worry about what’s going to happen next on what felt like a never-ending nightmare which they called their life. 
Talia was now staring at a gravestone, how can one person change everything with just existing for just a moment, then disappearing the next. She crouched down cleaning it up a bit smiling bitterly, wanting to cry her hear aching even she though she figured she was able to keep the promise. Her hand grazing over the engraving of the one she held so dear. She slowly put down her lily stepping away admiring their hard work. She raised her hand high fiving her friends. 
“It was a good idea to visit him even though it took like what? Two hours?” Allen nodded impressed they didn’t start complaining halfway through that car ride.
“Wow great job now we know how long it took, now it’s going to feel like it’s 4 hours instead of 2.” Karma whined punching Allen on the shoulder. The group laughed at Karma’s whining but got what she meant.
“Ah we really should head back I can just imagine one of my members waking up to me not being there.” Talia thought out loud just imaging the chaos that would ensue when they don’t see her there. Allen scoffed.
“Please they will call you and you can say you’re with Chan.” Allen pointed at Chan while his head shook in confusion on how he came up with that.
“Me? Why me?” He pointed at himself dramatically.
“Cause they know you are responsible, so if you think about it and use your noggin, they will be cool with it.” Allen said oh so casually while Talia, Karma, and Chan looked at him with ‘are you stupid?’ look on their face. Now Allen taken back from their reaction.
“Why are your guys faces screaming ‘are you stupid?’ on them?” he asked concerned. Talia huffed and started to walk away with the rest but Allen following her as he was frozen in confusion, now getting to his senses running to catch up with them.
“WHAT WAS THAT LOOK FOR????” 
Tumblr media
Talia sighed in relief as she entered her dorm. Cracking her neck, feeling like she was just on a 10-hour road trip with a bunch of idiots (Allen). Talia kicked off her shoes taking off her jacket feeling overheated already. Looking up now making intense eye contact with a member of the foreign swaggers.
“Ah Mi Bon Bon.” She tilted her head smiling sweetly acting like she didn’t just leave and come back at 5 am at night. Jaehyun raised an eyebrow at her giving her a knowing smile.
“Now princess, I know it’s your birthday and all and you turned like 18 but, why did you just come through the door at 5 am in the morning when I clearly saw you knocked out with Jaemin and Haechan clinging on to you.” He asked walking up to her helping her get her layers off as February can get quite cold.
Talia looked down and pouted no way she was getting out of this one. “Ah well you see, I was planning to leave around 12 am as I figured Dream was gonna take me to their dorm which they were gonna knock out as soon as they get there, and to which they did. Then I pretended to be asleep so when managers did a round check with the older members aka you, Taeyong, Doyoung, etc. Then when you guys left, I took a shower and left aswell." Talia explained her process as to Jaehyun was impressed.
“You a professional now?” He asked playfully leading her to his room as he was rooming alone, and the bed was big enough for both of them. Talia giggled at his joke, glad he wasn’t to upset at the fact she sneaked out late at night. Where if it were the other members, she would be scolded right off the bat. Jaehyun smirked a bit knowing Talia owed him one as they can play it off as she couldn’t sleep and decided to sleep with Jaehyun. Talia side eyed him knowing exactly what he’s thinking.
“What do you want Jung Jaehyun.” She turned to him eyeing him up and down. He chuckled. “No Mi Bon Bon?” he mocked her as she groaned letting her head fall back rolling her eyes at him going to his closet for some comfortable clothes to steal. He thought about it for a moment and smiled he got out the room as she signaled him to leave.
“You thought of one yet?” She raised her voice a little, just enough for him to hear. “Yeah, I got a perfect one~.” He said in a sinister way to mess with her. Laughing a little as he heard her little moan on the other side clearly dreading her future. He knocked twice to see if he could come in the silence was a yes as he opened the door to a small girl planted face down like a star in the middle of his bed.
“Now princess would you like to hear my wish?” he said in a breathy tone petting her hair. She nodded still facing the cushion. Jaehyun smiled sweetly at her little act finding it adorable.
“I want you to wish me Happy Birthday and Valentine’s Day once the clock hits 12~” He sang, he could feel Talia stiffen and his eyes followed her body as she slowly rose her head in surprise. She smiled signaling she liked his wish.
“Alright Valentine Boy I will grant your wish with a bonus!” She exclaimed now sitting up with Jaehyun still sitting on the floor laying his head on her legs interested in the bonus.
“Bonus? What bonus?” He smiled dimples coming out making him seem more charming. 
“I will wish you Happy Birthday plus Valentine every year in person or through call depends on my schedule.” She proposed now playing with his face, his smiled got wider and tackled her down the bed hugging the life out of her. Now more relaxed, lights turned off his face just nuzzled in her hair in the place of her neck. He could feel her body relaxed and breathing slow down as she fell asleep in his arms. He looked up at her, even though he can’t see her properly he could still make out her figure. His eyes softening but yet his heart was racing. This girl took his breath away in one foul swoop and he couldn’t complain as it felt amazing.
“I love you, I love you so much, thank you.”

— snippets of Aiko in episode 2 of 2022 NCT Field Day:
Tumblr media
Lunch Time
Aiko is seen lounging with the dream members plus Doyoung, seated between Renjun and Jaemin.
But she stands and comes with Mark to ask for some chicken from the tent of Yuta and Jungwoo.
"Aiko, I'll give this to you if you say 'please' cutely." Yuta requested, holding the piece of chicken by his chopsticks. Mark watched amusedly from the sides.
"Kudasai." Aiko relented, earning a squeal from both members and a head pat from Mark before going back to their own tent.
Jaemin looked at the plat of Aiko curiously, prompting the member to ask if he wanted some.
"Jaem, do you want this?"
"What is it?"
"Chicken from Yuta-oppa."
With a nod, the female idol shared some of hers, earning a soft "Thank you," from the visual.
...
"Have you had that slushy?" Renjun begins a conversation.
"It's the carbonated smoosie."
Noticing his mistake, Doyoung teasingly responded, "Smoosie? What's a smoosie."
At this, Mark openly chuckled, "You're cute."
Aiko similarly grinned, ruffling Renjun's hair as she agreed with Mark, "Smoothie." She corrected.
"Ah, smoothie. I forgot."
"Why is he so cute?" Mark egded on.
"He isn't that cute," Doyoung responded.
Aiko, not even looking up from her food, immediately disagreed. "Renjun is always cute. Don't be jealous just because you're not, oppa."
Mark and Renjun wheezed (the latter wrapping an arm on her shoulder), Doyoung feigned offense, while Jaemin nonchalantly nodded.
Aiko's display of a sheepish smile indicated to the viewers how it was all in good fun.
"Don't worry, Renjun is cute, but you're also handsome sometimes oppa." She reassured, earning a pinch on the cheek from Doyoung.
"Just sometimes?"
...
"If we win this time, let's give the Korean beef to Jisung." Mark whispered though the volume of his voice didn't really conceal anything that he stated.
The other members, sans Doyoung, openly agreed.
"I'll give mine to Jisung." Renjun promised.
"I was going to give it to him anyway." Aiko followed, earning a small comment from the leader—a soft smile etched on his face, "Yeokshi. Noona's favorite dongsaeng."
Tumblr media
Work It!
Aiko seats beside Renjun and Mark, the former coddling the latter while Aiko stays focused on the emcees, playing with the cat hairband she received from the staff.
When the song for EXO comes out, most of the dream members stepped forward, with Aiko being dragged by Renjun.
With no choice, Aiko danced along to the song, her figure being captured by the camera held by Jaehyun.
"Aiko's so cool!"
When Replay plays, she cheered on Mark's name as the leader dances with Haechan. "Let's go Mark!"
The cheers for Aiko then came unanimously when the recent song of her trainee friends, Aespa's Next Level emerges.
"Aiko! You know this!"
Mark shamelessly pushed Aiko to the center, who complied nonchalantly as the only person who actually knew the steps of the dance.
But the majority of the members joined her when the "D" dance came up.
The caption read, "The feisty cat shows that she is next level."
"Wah, how is Haechan so good." The camera picked up on Aiko's comment as she sat back down beside Renjun.
Renjun chuckled and ruffled her hair; noticing he heard, she warned, "Please don't tell him I said that."
She laughs along as Jungwoo takes over Red Velvet's Feel My Rythm, and when both Haechan and Xiaojun completely obliterate their images as they battle it out for the MVP title.
In the end, Aiko cheered for both Haechand and Xiaojun.

Kick Him Back
"If Aiko goes out, I'll go out as well." With only four representatives, Haechan called out a battle with Aiko.
Taeyong brings Aiko to his back, "She won't go out."
Aiko peeks from his shoulder with a satisfied smile, "I won't go out."
Ultimately, the white team sent out Yuta, Taeyong, Shotaro, and Mark.
With a tie, however, Aiko volunteered to go against Doyoung and Taeil for the last round, supporting Jungwoo from the back.
She stayed still, laughing loudly as Jungwoo attacked aggressively, causing his pillow to fall off and the team to take a breather.
"Ah, Taeil. Be more mature, don't attack the younger guys." Taeyong commented.
Seconds after, Taeil was eliminated, leaving Doyoung vulnerable to the attacks of a very competitive Jungwoo.
Aiko started pushing him as well, using the long pillow to hit the sides of his torso.
With a last forceful charge, the white team was able to secure their victory.
Jungwoo immediately celebrated, the others patting Aiko on the head and the shoulder for a job well done.
Mark wrapped his arm around her shoulder, "You did so good."
Tumblr media
Stay Close to Me Like A Sticker
For the last game, since the white team had an extra member, Aiko opted to stay out, sitting instead between Jaemin and Doyoung as they supervised the members.
She wore her cat headband while holding a similar-looking mic with the words, 'MC Aiko.'
She leaned on Jaemin's shoulder as she counted down with them; and when they checked and roamed around, she stayed still on the rubber platform, too tired from the previous game.
And for the final round, uninterested in the turn of events, she disappeared from the frame completely to get a slushy from the machine.
It was only when the white team lost that they noticed the disappearance of the member, "Yah, before we proceed, where's Aiko?"
She nonchalantly walks back into the frame while sipping on her drink, earning laughs mainly from Mark as she stood by his side.
The awards were given and Aiko attained a vitamin set. Satisfied with what she got, she clapped enthusiastically as the others received theirs.
"It was really good to have fun with the members again. It was like healing time." She stated for her ment.
