be alright

JENN; Maknae of ACE ENT girl group, Myriad.

aceminsu:

Minsu, baffled by Jenn’s blatant rewriting of history–a history that happened less than a minute ago, no less–wondered if she had always been like this. For a horrible moment, he considered the possibility that something had gone seriously wrong when she got in that accident. He felt guilty just thinking it. But, in his defense, he was trying to befriend her! That had to mean something. If not to Jenn, surely it meant something karmically.

Then, he got an idea.

“Sunbae,” he began, tentative. “I’m not playing nice.” He totally was. “I’m… thinking about your career, too!” He totally wasn’t. “If you treat me better… the viewers might think it’s… cute? And if the ratings go up, it’s good for both of us. Right?”

He hoped and prayed for her to buy into his words. If she did, then he wouldn’t have to deal with backhanded compliments all the time with her. This was the closest thing to a truce he could think of.

At his tone of voice, her face scrunched up in slight suspicion. “I am nice to you on the show.” She replied blatantly, her voice rather monotone as she did so. “Ratings are already high up because of how already cute I am.” Raising a brow, Jenn crossed her arms defensively as she began to suspect the other of meddling behavior. “What kind of trick are you planning to play, Minsu-ah.”

aceyeonsoo:

Yeonsoo blinked and tilted her head to the side before giggling a little. “Ah…that makes sense,” she smiled. It had always been a wonder to not just Yeonsoo but everyone around her how she could not use or even understand electronic gadgets when she was classified as a genius academically. She just never thought it would be necessary for her to learn but apparently, in this day and age, one could not go without these gadgets and apps. “You want to call me grandma?” Yeonsoo asked. “Sounds good to me,” she grinned. “My dear grandchild,” she laughed, stroking Jenn’s hair.

Looking into the camera as Jenn took the picture, Yeonsoo was still fascinated with how there could be graphics instantly on them. She was a little confused when Jenn suddenly quizzed her and she froze up. “Er…um…so I press here, right?” she asked, pressing the camera button and took a picture instead. “Oops no…OH! I remember! I press my face?” She looked at Jenn, making sure that she was getting it right. “And then oh! Look! It’s all down here!” she grinned.

Jenn smiled widely at the other, imitating the face of a child. “Is grandma in the mood to treat her grandchild to frozen ice cream today?” She pitched the idea in a pitch of voice higher than what she normally spoke at, teasingly. It was strange how the usually ice-cold girl was always so much warmer towards her fellow member. In fact, it was well known that the only time she ever acted in the manner was on variety shows– generally anything for their fans.

“Yeah, that’s right! You caught on a bit.” She granted the other with praise. “But we can also change the filter– look here.” Jenn spoke again, now swiping through the various filters provided by snapchat for the other to see. “Now, you pick one.” She said, now handing the phone back to the other.

acehyoji:

“Reality checks? Help? Grateful?” Hyoji scoffed before breaking into a laugh. Was that what this was to Jenn? Her giving Hyoji a reality check? “You’re just too cute,” she smirked a little. She knew that Jenn was like this with everyone but Hyoji highly doubted that everyone thought of it as a ‘reality check’. “And what is this reality check of yours supposed to do? Make me cry? Make me realise that being an idol is not a career for me? Or…make me realise that ever meeting you was a mistake?”

It was a little funny how Jenn kept saying that Hyoji was holding back her group. In reality, if that was true, her company would have never let her debut to begin with. “I’m tone deaf and the company felt sorry for me,” she hummed. “Well, okay, so they can’t exactly take me out of the group without causing too much trouble but tell me this,” she said. “If I’m tone deaf like you said, holding back the group as you’ve suggested, then why did the company ever decide to debut me? Why waste their time and money on me at all to begin with?”

“Tell me something I don’t know.” Jenn replied to the ‘cute’ comment, speaking through her teeth as she plastered a smile of mockery to the other. This was followed by a simple shrug. “You can take it however you want to. I, personally, would take it as a way to improve myself. You’re so bothered by my comments that instead of actually working, you’re just using the company as away to back up your credibility in your group.”

Another chuckle escaped her lips at the question posed by the other. “You’re really asking that?” The red head raised a brow as she spoke, countering with a question of her own. “You know quite well that connections– and simple visuals– have helped some people in this industry get to where they are today. They didn’t need talent or even have to work hard in order to debut.” Jenn now straightened up her posture, relaxing her previously raised brow. “So take a step back and think up the answer for yourself.”

acekiyeol:

Kiyeol’s eyes widened slightly and all he could do was smile. Unfortunatly he didn’t know any English at all and had no idea what she said. “I didn’t know you could speak English~” he mused, trying to appear a bit more confident. Taking a girl on a date was something he never really thought he would be doing. In fact, he had never really gone on a date before. This was all so new to him. He gave a happy nod and followed the girl into a costume store. “Oh wow.. look at all the costumes..” he laughed as he held up some sort of zombie-like costume. “You think I would be scary as a zombie?” he joked. 

“I spent a few years abroad.” She explained. “But I’m a bit rusty since I hardly ever use the language.” The red head noticed the other’s amazement upon entering the costume store and smirked a bit. To her, it was almost like watching a child experiencing their first Halloween. Naturally, a few witty remarks landed on the tip of her tongue in response to the other’s words, but the presence of the cameras caused Jenn to swallow them down just as quickly as they’d appeared. “I’m sure that would be a little creepy, but you could go a step further– like this!” She then held up a mask of a disfigured face, showing it to both her partner and the camera man.

Shen chuckled at her comment, before looking at her curiously. “You do have your license, right?” He asked before grabbing his keys out of his front pocket and holding them out.

“Indeed, I do.” She sung happily, dancing a bit as she waved her license before the other’s face. “You can trust me, I’m a really good driver.” In all honestly, the girl was just desperate to be behind the wheel after such a long time. It was almost like a test for herself, to see if she could handle the after effects of her accident.

“I’m not even going to justify that with a response,” Minsu said, refusing to think of Jenn’s behind while he was mid-meal. He hardly had time to eat; he definitely didn’t have time to lose his appetite.

“If I’m changing careers, I should study to become a psychological profiler. I think that’s the only way for me to figure out how your brain works…” Minsu sighed. “I’m sorry I tried giving you the chance to actually make a friend around here.”

“How cute. You’re so in love with me that you’d change your profession just to revolve your life around me.” Jenn sighed, smiling at the other. “Brownie points for you, Minsu-ah. You really know the way to my heart.” Following his next response, she could only shake her head, once more. “It’s sweet that you think I care about anyone else in this company besides myself.” The smile she gave the other was almost sympathetic (though no one besides herself would really understand why). “My career is important, not naive children who think that playing nice with others is going to solve any problems that life throws.”

acehyoji:

Hyoji took a look around then before looking back to Jenn. She knew that the younger one was known to be rude around the company and this was not exactly the first time she was like this with Hyoji either. “You, if you want to succeed in this industry, I suggest you keep that attitude of yours in check,” Hyoji stated. It was a real advice she was giving her, not some retort in response. “You know, I’ve heard a saying before. It was something about, you criticise and belittle another because in actual reality, you’re jealous of them,” she smirked. “I wonder if you’re really jealous of me, Jenn.”

Of course, if they were to take Hyoji out of the group now, after it had been so established over the years, it would be the same as taking a rock and throwing it at their own feet. It made no sense and they would be the only one hurting after. “Then I wonder why you keep complaining about me in the group,” she smiled. “You do realise that that’s what companies are good at, right? Getting out of trouble. They could come up with a reason just like that and take me out but…oh right, they haven’t. Which means I’m actually valuable.”

“I don’t need a washed out grandma to tell me what to do.” She chuckled in response to what the other probably believed to be ‘advice’. “In fact, I always keep my ‘attitude’ in check when it actually matters.” Her eyes looked the other up and down, from head to toe. “Don’t flatter yourself. You are not the only person I give reality checks to on a daily basis. You’re just one of the cases in need of the most help. You really should be grateful to me.”

“Why do I keep complaining? Because I feel bad for the rest of your members who are constantly being held back by you.” Another chuckle escaped from her lips (she seemed to do this often when in the presence of the other). “Companies are awful at covering those sort of things up, sweetheart. A couple of months and the disbandment of the entire group occurs. You aren’t that special, Hyoji. You’re just tone deaf, but got lucky that the company felt sorry for you.”

“Drop the act already!” Minsu insisted around his mouthful. “We have to be friends before you fall head over heels for me!” Shaking his food at her, he added, “I don’t know about you, but for me, this counts as something to eat.”

He nearly choked on his bite when Jenn’s hand made it into his hair. He grabbed his soda to help wash it down, but it still caught in his throat somewhat, making his voice rough when he spoke again.

“All I’m saying is… If we’re so ‘in love’, shouldn’t we try to be nicer to each other? And by we, I mean you. You should try being nicer to me,” he said. “You were nice on our date. You can be nice again. I believe in you.”

Jenn could only bring herself to scowl at the scene ahead of her. Not only had her “husband” been speaking with a mouth full of food, but he was also waving a greasy, half-eaten dead cow in the form of a patty right in her face. “Well then you’re eating something that would come out from my behind.” The red head retaliated back in response.

“I’m sorry.” She laughed at the other’s words. “Have you made a sudden career change? Are you now deciding to become a motivational speaker?” Jenn paused, shaking her head in disapproval. “Such a shame. You’re not very good at it. Frankly, I’m not even sure of what you’re trying to achieve in saying these things to me.”

Kiyeol wouldn’t say it out loud but, that idea appealed more to him than trying to please Jenn.

aceyeonsoo:

“Why?” Yeonsoo asked, tilting her head slightly and looked at Jenn. “Is it because I don’t know how to use this app?” It was a real wonder, sometimes, why Yeonsoo was technically classified as a genius but could not work out how to use an app on her phone. It was not until recently did she finally learn how to use Instagram and even then, it took months and months of reminding her what to press.

She shifted closer to Jenn, watching as the maknae was showing her the app. Even though Jenn could be a pain in the ass sometimes, Yeonsoo really saw her as a younger sister. An annoying younger sister whom she adored. “Oh! That’s so cool!” Yeonsoo gasped, taking her phone back to see that her face now had a dog filter on it. “Oh! Look! You have one too!” she grinned, pointing to Jenn’s face on the screen that had the dog filter too.

“To put it simply, you can hardly use anything electronic.” She responded to the other quickly, chuckling quietly to herself. “You’re practically on the same level as my grandma– should I start referring to you as that instead of unnie?” Jenn asked, teasing the other. Though she was usually cold, there was something about this group member that allowed Jenn to tease playfully than hurtfully. She wouldn’t admit it, but sometimes it was a nice break from having to put up a front all the time.

Jenn laughed playfully as the other discovered the results of the effect. “I’m going to take the picture now, so you can either look nice or pay attention, okay?” She said to the other. “One...two...three!” The red head counted down casually before finally “snapping” the picture. “Okay, pop quiz: what did I do to get this image?”

“Don’t pretend like you’re even interested in me that way,” Minsu grumbled. “And you seemed fine eating from that fast food place on the way back from our–” He stopped himself before he could say ‘date’. “Wait, you had a salad didn’t you?”

He resisted another eye roll at her health consciousness– Not that he didn’t care about his health! He just didn’t have time to eat something other than takeout at the moment. He decided to conserve his energy by not arguing that point. He needed to tackle what was really bothering him about all this.

“I thought you had fun the other day! And believe me when I say, you’re not the only one weirded out by that. I mean… Us? Having fun together? It’s definitely weird.” Minsu picked up his food and took another bite. He barely gave himself time to swallow before continuing with, “But you don’t have to compensate for that by being meaner than before! You are allowed to enjoy things, sunbae.”

“What?” She then over exaggerated a gasp. “Minsu-ah, who said that I was pretending?” The red head spoke, uncontrollable giggles filtering her words. “I am absolutely in love with you and Kiyeol-ssi! What a typical and tragic love triangle it is.” Completing her sentence, she visibly rolled her eyes for the other to see, crossing her arms as she did so. “Of course I ordered a salad. There was nothing else on the menu to eat.”

The girl could only chuckle, ruffling the other’s hair as she would to a small dog. “You’re like a cute child.” She spoke, tilting her head as she sighed lightly at the other. “As your senior, it’s my responsibility to teach your how this industry works and how to survive it, yes? Consider that little date lesson number one.”

acekiyeol:

“Mhm~ Anything you want to be~” Kiyeol smiled brightly. He hummed softly in thought, “well, we could always look around and see if anything suits your fancy~” He shook his head in response. He really had no idea what he wanted to do. The only thing he had planned so far was that he was going to scare as many people as he could. “I just want to dress up as something scary~ And just hang out with my friends… and scare them~” he laughed. 

“Movie montage!” She spoke the English words excitedly, laughing as she did so. There were a few words that she would have chosen to reply with additionally, but being mindful that she was on camera, Jenn knew better than to do so. Instead, she remained quiet, allowing herself only to giggle and play the sweet role of Myriad’s maknae that the public had grown to know. “Sure sounds interesting– c’mon, oppa. Hurry!” The girl then advanced to usher the other along, grabbing his wrist and guiding them to the first costume store she had laid eyes on.

“I’ll be sure that whatever we have, it’s not oily.” Shen smiled at Jenn. He had only been around her a small number times since his trainee days, however he did highly respect her. He laughed at her driving in his car. “Only if you promise not to crash it. I only just got it.”

The red head held her hand up next to her face with a smile. “Scout’s honor, bub.” Following her words, Jenn leaned in slightly to whisper another few words to the other. “Just don’t let anyone know that I’m driving.” She then lowered it, her palm wide open and held out to the other. “Keys please.”

aceminsu:

Minsu swiveled to face Jenn with something like an apologetic smile on his face, but the facade just didn’t last. For once, they weren’t on camera. He didn’t have to bend over backwards to respect her when this was all she gave him to go off of. His smile melted into a more honest expression, that of being completely done with Jenn and her antics. He thought their date had gone well! So why was she acting like this?

He slowly set down the burger he was eating onto its waxy paper and wiped his hands off on his napkin. “Speaking from experience, are you?” he quipped.

“And people call me rude.” She sighed lightly, chuckling under breath. “I was just trying to help, little Minsu-ah.” Her sentence came out as something similar to a song. “Considering you’re only one of two husbands, I would think that you’d want to be as handsome as you can possibly be, no?” Jenn looked down at the burger placed before the other and could admit to feeling quite sick at the sight. The girl hadn’t eaten very much fast food before she began training. These days, she wouldn’t even consider it– a fact that she, not once, hid from the public. 

“I wouldn’t be caught dead eating one of those, so no. I’m not speaking from experience. Just speaking as someone more educationally aware.”
