( kkt ) you know I think if we put you and kihyun in the same room..... ( kkt ) the world might get overrun. ( kkt ) we should switch you with him for a day. 😏

kkt : overrun? don’t see what you’re talking about. kkt : i don’t know how kihyun will handle a day as jinhwan in an ikon’s dorm. kkt : how good is he at yelling 24/7?

( msg ) well, here’s the message! next time you have to help me with my album, okay??? if you agree and don’t show up, this heartbreaker will be heartbroken 😭   ( msg ) calling me noona is not going to stop me from making a wake up call early in the morning and telling you work out. it’s foryour own good jinhwan-ah.  ( msg ) i’m like 5 minutes away. you? 

( msg ) i’d never want to influence your believe but i am saying you probably should believe me anyway because my truth is the truthest to ever exist? ( msg ) 5 ... what? what is that? what time is that? that exists on the clock?  ( msg ) i suddenly don’t want to do this thing. why step sisters? aren’t we too smart and good looking and good hearted to be that?  ( msg ) oh boosting your own ego tsk tsk  ( msg ) but you’re lovely alright, the loveliest, getting lovelier each day with each treadmill session, keep it up lovely minji!!  ( msg ) i feel both flattered and blessed, let me rub my eyes then rub this in hanbin’s and bobby’s eyes.  ( msg ) i am honoured gong minji-sshi to be invited to participate whenever i wish and promise to make a show even when you don’t want to see my face. 🙏 ( msg ) you don’t want me to influence your beliefs ... can i ask that you don’t influence my well being or .. mornings?  ( msg ) i just got there. taxi is parking. if you’re late you’re paying, right?

( msg ) very fitting! ( msg ) ooh, is our jinhwan trying to become a mysterious type by keeping his thoughts a secret???  ( msg ) that’s my image with the unnies. we live by two phrases, “diets start tomorrow” and “if it’s good, it’s zero calories.” everything we ate was so delicious. ( msg ) i think i can handle being a heartbreaker on my own. i won’t need your help, so you better keep your lips sealed, okay?  ( msg ) did you need a message to show up? you could’ve just shown up. i wouldn’t have mind.  ( msg ) not working out isn’t too good either. in fact working out helps relieve stress. 

( msg ) trying? trying? really, that’s hurtful. everyone knows i am the mysterious one in ikon. in fact i play every role needed in ikon. ask the fans they know it best.  ( msg ) so i did hit it right then! you do have magical powers that eliminate any excess of weight you could get from not dieting.  ( msg ) you know even villains out there needs assistance but players never want any help. i wonder why. i am not trying to steal your tricks, just watch you as you stamp on innocent hearts.  ( msg ) yea i did, i wanted to get that message. you needed to make it feel like it was important and you needed my help  😞😞😞 ( msg ) i did not get in touch to be lectured about working out, did teacher hwang put you up to this?  😢  ( msg ) heartbreaker noona please let me be lazy. this heart can’t take more than this.  ( msg ) where are you at by now?

( msg ) more like miss heartbreaker. ( msg ) don’t let yg hear you say that, he’ll coin the phrase. but you’re exactly right. it’s like me with chocolate cake when i’m on a diet.  ( msg ) you should know that by now. as she should! grl pwr, ya know? how is she by the way?  ( msg ) aish, if you tell them you’re dead meat!! and all of you are good looking, if you weren’t i doubt you’d all have so many female fans. am i right? ( msg ) let me go change my instagram name. ugh, where were you during the brainstorming process for my solo???  ( msg ) this is why trainer hwang has such a hard time. first bomunnie, now you. never skip gym day! ( msg ) you read my mind! 

( msg ) oh fitting  ( msg ) no worries i keep my thoughts as sealed as one keeps the lock of a pandora box.  ( msg ) i wouldn’t imagine you struggling with a diet, i have this image that you eat whatever you want and work out and it works like magic. ( msg ) i thought you were a heartbreaker. wouldn’t this be the perfect timing to do your job and break some hearts. i’d just be helping the process by delivering the message. ( msg ) ah thank you thank you, of course you have to acknowledge that we do the part physically.  ( msg ) oh i don’t know somewhere waiting for your message to invite me to participate in the process?  ( msg ) trainer hwang should learn how to relax life is so short this much stress can’t be good.

( msg ) i’m as serious as a heart attack!!! AND THAT’S SERIOUS!!! ( msg ) i know all too well. it’s about quality, not quantity. yg lives up to that standard. but the fans are so loyal. they complain but just accept it. ( msg ) listen, i don’t think the ladies of yg want you speaking for them, lol. but we’re definitely better than ikon. ( msg ) I’M KIDDING!!! ( msg ) maybe… i think you just gave me an idea! i should do a cover of the kim possible theme song and put it on my next album. i’m sure it’d be a hit. a little trip down memory lane for some. ( msg ) and yea, i’m down! i’m leaving the gym, so i need some more fuel!  

( msg ) let’s not get that serious now miss heart attack.  ( msg ) i think it’s got something to do with the more you hate something the more you love it when you finally have it. what kind of psychology would this be? yg psychology?  ( msg ) ..... i really can’t win. but you’re right i should let the ladies speak for themselves. i can almost feel my sister hitting me even though she’s not here right now.  ( msg ) nah nah you weren’t kidding be honest, this is really how you think isn’t it? it’ll break the boys’ hearts but i am obviously going to heal. some day. ( msg ) gong possible? is it possible? i am glad i am feeding you ideas, it means more goodies to enjoy!  ( msg ) ah! i should mention, i loved the EP you put out, it was really nice had your style to it and a familiar sound too. ( msg ) you’re leaving the gym and here i am trying to find excuses to not go tomorrow.  ( msg ) i’ll get in the cab, let’s meet at that one place with what i call the best pork chops in the universe.

❛ Not yet, not married. I’m not married yet. ❜ // ( Thank you for following back! )

Well, quite frankly, Jinhwan tilts his head as he continues down the street where they’ve landed during the quiet walk down. “You’re making a lot of people happy with that status, so where’s the rush?” He’s saying that with a smile, but really thinking it, where’s the rush? Even without that factor put in. Nowhere, if you asked him, there’s a time for everything. Whether it be getting somewhere in one’s career or personal life or romantic life, everything has its own timing. 

As humans we sometimes wish for things to get to work at a certain speed, even more if we’re surrounded by other people who live a life where we would have liked to fit in too at the same time as them. It’s one of the things that’s hard to not keep an eye on as an idol. What the friends we have around, who don’t live the same experiences do that are different from the ones we can’t have as idols. Normal relationships, getting married, getting kids, without the pressure of having to explain our choices to no one but our family and maybe friends.

( msg ) i’m gonna have to start charging now. i’ll give you a discount, though, since i’m nice. ( msg ) it’s taken you all long enough to make a comeback here in korea. why didn’t you give me any hints? i could have delayed my solo a bit longer and promoted with you all.  ( msg ) listen, if the other members were to hear you say that, their feelings would be hurt. we’re a group full of visuals!  ( msg ) hmm… i’m very busy these days, so an appointment would be best. you can get in touch with my secretary and they’ll set you up with a time that works best for me.  ( msg ) hahaha, why are you so extra? you know how to get in touch with me. call me, beep, if you wanna reach me. 

( msg ) you talk about charging me then tell me i am extra, seriously?  ( msg ) you know how it goes! we don’t drop hits until we do it, then we just drop apologies and enough heat to make it worth it. works better that way.  ( msg ) aaaah you’re right, where’s my head?? of course all the members of the unnies are visuals, even more than anyone in the ikon or yg house, trust my word on this.  ( msg ) call me beep me if you wanna reach me~ is that a lyric from an upcoming song?  ( msg ) wanna go get lunch today then?

I can't believe we saw the return of Kim Jinny before we saw Kim Jinhwan, {'holds out a makeshift microphone with her hand} Oppa your thoughts on her appearance?

Laughter as he shakes his head, even if he’s also leaning towards the makeshift of a microphone of her hand and clearing his throat. “Sorry to disappoint, but I have no idea what you mean. Could you elaborate? Who’s Kim Jinny? Do you mean Blackpink’s Kim Jennie?” He’s nothing if all grin as he arches his eyebrows at her, playing along the confusion of his words as well as waiting for what she will bring forth after this.

tuansum:

“karma exists yeah, that’s why you’ve crashed and you’re further behind than you were before you accidentally hit me.” it’s only briefly that such a streak comes out when he’s back with his boys. partially because he’s got a title to uphold, not one set for himself but one that seemed to come with the territory. being the eldest among seven and the oddly proclaimed the calmest one. he’s sunk into the role more times than he can remember and although he does let loose it’s not as frequently and not like this. mark is playful but with the memory of his position lingering in the back of his mind. the others are just as competitive if not more than him so he’s got that streak to keep under wraps.

times like this, lax as the atmosphere is he lets it slip out in streams, words and movements. all feeling free with each nudge and turn of his body to match the car on the screen. he doesn’t care much if he wins though his concentration might say otherwise. it’s just the rush. not from the game and not really from the excitement, but the freedom of it all. he gets pieces of his personality to escape around certain people and that’s probably better than all at once. he laps jinhwan’s car again and suddenly he’s laughing and he’s sure. it’s definitely better like this.

“if you wanna be a master at something putting me to sleep is definitely not the way to go. I can knock out on will alone.” jinhwan probably could too, it’s probably a skill that all of them acquire. through nights like this when they force themselves open for no reason but to let their buzzes die. to other nights when they’ve got to force the tired out and it waits on the horizon to be called. welcomed and summoned back. mark doesn’t feel it yet, but maybe that’s just the laughter keeping him up. 

“You said it not me. I said the others were kids.” Maybe that’s another reason he’s still awake. Jinhwan’s younger than him but he’s got the same titles sitting in his mind. Maybe not of the same caliber but it’s still there and even when Jinhwan frowns and Mark’s car crosses the line the only thing he feels is amusement of a different kind. Smug and without regret. “I had to steal a couple wins, the boys don’t like losing. I’ll teach you next round promise.”

“Yeah, but see hyung,” This isn’t exactly something to be arguing about, but it’s that time of the night now. Now that Jinhwan’s been somewhat beat at a game that he’s supposed to be learning how to beat others at. Now that his trust has been dramatically damaged--dramatically because he’s thinking of all the ways this cold have gone well for him and resenting Mark just a little bit for it. But at the same time, he knows it’s just going to pass over him like anything else does. Like everything else should, but sadly, not everything in this life lightly hits. 

Jinhwan’s found that unfortunately, most of what hits him in life has been nothing but a beating down, again and again. How is he still standing? Sheer--what he likes to call the stupid hope that things eventually get better. That’s worked so far, he won’t lie. It’s worked so well, that when he has the chance to let things slide--Jinwhan doesn’t hesitate. He lets it be, just like the movement of his body going lax against the back of the couch and this argument at the tip of his tongue, sounding nothing but amused when it finally comes out. “When you put it like that, it sounded like you were experiencing it and so, y’know, made it sound like I’m the kid trying to play you here.” 

Eyebrows are arched as he stares at the tv screen. “I mean, you should learn how to word things.” He nods to himself, softly, mouth curled around a small pout. Then he’s pointing his controller to the screen still displaying bits of the game, “Like how you said you’d help me learn but really meant you’ll beat me until I learn.” Now this, this is half amused half bitter and it must come out as such. Either way, Jinhwan’s learned his lesson alright. 

“Such a crooked man.” He rises off the couch, pulls on the ends of his shirt before padding along the living room to find the kitchen. It’s given him the need for a snack, even if he knows he shouldn’t--not this late. But he’ll compensate with schedules and more than a few workouts during the rest of the week, therefore. He’ll allow himself a bit of indulgence.

tuansum:

it would be unfair, and a slight on jinhwan’s part to say he wasn’t trying. he was trying as far as moving his fingers and focusing was going. it’d been a while since he had time to sit down and play something and for that to be something other than overwatch it was surprising. but to say he’s putting more effort in when his body’s been rigged with jetlag and was a bit of a stretch. he had the choice between company and sleep and because it’s been so long since he saw his dongsaeng he agreed on the company. ironically enough hanging out with jinhwan could prove to be almost as good as resting, almost. he threw everything into the game but he didn’t throw himself over mark when he got too good, and mark liked it when he got too good.

that’s why he’s just grinning at the words, purposely moving his body with each turn and drift that he makes on the screen. the others would probably school him in this, boasting about how they’ve beat him at a game that should be his domain but he doesn’t mind. “it’s called field training, you learn as I throw you into it. gotta make sure you do good under pressure in case the kids want to play you.” he speaks over the bamboo stick that in his mouth fresh remains of their quick snack still present on his tongue and wiggling down to his body. “no wonder you had me eat before this round I’m gonna knock out from all that chicken that’s - yah yah yah don’t try to run into me!” and just as the warm feeling runs down his arms it shoots back up. they’ve both got that competitive streak it seems.

a few blinks, a huff and jinhwan’s not sure why he hasn’t tried to play dirty just yet. but then mark is talking about jinhwan’s car running into him and it brings him back to the absurd reality that it’s because he can’t even play it right so how is he supposed to play dirty at all? “that was an accident!” it was, truly, but it’s not as if he’s not going to laugh about it and think and mention that. so he’s laughing, feeling pretty smug and satisfied about that for the few seconds it last at least. “karma does exist, see? a man should keep his promises or the consequences will be dire.” 

he’s not feeling as calm as his voice seems to carry out the words. not at all. it’s been said that the way the blood pumps and rises the adrenaline level is what is good about playing games. a bit like exercising, without the movement of body and the soreness of limbs afterwards. simply tired eyes and mind numb enough to barely be able to focus. sometimes headaches can follow right after, jinhwan’s stopped letting himself go to that point. or rather, he has no time to get to that point these days. 

“i wish you’d have knocked out before the five previous rounds, then that would make me a mastermind in something right now.” also jinhwan would like to point out that, “i’d simply put you to sleep with sleeping pills in your food if i wanted you out of the picture, this wasn’t the deal.” and after another rough turn of the racing car and crashing it against a side when he tries to take a curve. yeah--he’s more than ready to give up when he compares the laps difference between him and mark. it’s  there, when frustration settles in and he’s sitting back with a frown that another statement kicks in and he’s throwing a side glare at mark. racing be damned, he’s already losing anyways. “are you saying i am the kid here?”

The Signs at their Best / The Signs at their Worst

Aquarius at their best: An actual source of energy. Always have the greatest plans and ideas, dislike boredom. They love communicating and meeting new people, seeing new places. Curious about life, wanting to explore the world. Lift others up with their presence only.

Aquarius at their worst: Complaining over everything and annoying others with it. They don't care about anything anymore, reckless. Do not care anymore and do their own thing even though it might not be good for them. Ignoring others and feeling empty deep down. Like they ran out of energy.

@tuansum ( mark’s got one job, okay, one job. to lose, he better fucking lose )

eyes lowered for a few seconds, only to catch a glimpse of what his fingers are doing. or what they’re supposed to be doing. jinhwan’s quick to look back up at the screen though, he knows it’s the best way to not lose track of the racing car on the screen. he’s had his fair share of playing around with the other boys when they have down time, he knows the best ways to get around any path. but this is a new game and he wants to, maybe get good at it before he has to throw himself in the midst of ikon and their ways of being competitive enough to drive jinhwan up a wall sometimes. or make him even more competitive. playing alone would’ve done the trick, but why chose the option when company could be had? 

“yah, hyung, aren’t you supposed to be teaching me how this works? all i can see is you trying to win.” and not just trying, if anyone else could witness this, they’d be watching jinhwan unable to get a hold of his car a few times and mark just literally sliding down every path like he’s done this before. well, some people are naturally born with some talents, jinhwan supposes. nothing he can do about that. but this isn’t a real match, hence why he’s voiced his complain as he tries yet again to make the racing car turn around and not have it drive backwards as it was doing. he’s not even sure how he managed the position the car’s in right now.
