“ i don’t… think? ” chen fumbles for a moment trying to check himself but very clearly failing at it. he probably looks like a dog chasing its own tail. how embarrassing. “ uhm. actually… can you help me check? ”

The opportunity to mess with his friend was staring him straight in the face, but honestly, watching him try to check himself was amusing enough that the urge to cause mischief was satisfied. “Yeah, sure thing, dude.”

[chenrv]

“ ah, thank you. ” he murmurs showing his back to his bandmate, ears red. he can only hope their stylist won't be too upset with him.

[jewoorv]

“are you sure you want me?” jewoo asked sheepishly. “i’m not nearly the choreography innovator everyone decided that i was in like…2015. you could probably find a much more talented and innovative choreographer to work with…”

[chenrv]

chen feels his face heat up in embarrasment at the rejection. “ ... like who? ” chen asks geniuely, scratching at his hair, he hadn't stop to consider other option before approaching his senior. “ i mean, y-you don't have to if you don't want to, it's okay. um. ”

[rvxharin]

“i still can’t believe that liberty stuck me in a japense group,” harin sighed. “like, i like my groupmates, don’t get me wrong. japan is cool too. the music we make is fun to play. but like….. i didn’t know japanese. had no connection to it. and they were just like….. you seem like a good person to send exclusively to japan….”

[chenrv]

“ do you really not promote in korea at all? ”

“i think, at this point, we might as well have dorms in china and in korea,” junxi commented, suppressing a giant yawn. “i know we’re never in china for more than a couple months at a time, but think about it– we go there enough. and wouldn’t travel be way less stressful if we just had our own rooms and didn’t have to worry about hotel accommodations sucking?” @chenrv​ @rvquin​ @rvbaohui​

[chenrv]

“ i would actually like that. ” he says, smiling slightly. it would make things a lot easier, chen thinks, saving himself from the added stress that is adjusting a new unknown place everytime they have promotions. “but... would the company agree to that? do antares have a dorm in china? ”

“ um, baohui?” chen starts but stops, hesitating, pressing his lips together in a small uncomfortable gesture. “ listen, i— i don’t mean to be rude, but i’m trying to practice right now and what you’re doing is very distracting. ” he addressed as he eyed at the other member of kaleidoscope carefully. @rvbaohui

[rvbaohui]

Baohui had taken a brief break from his own practicing to look at a video someone had sent to him - he had his earbuds popped in so he wouldn’t bother anyone with the sound so he admittedly was confused that he was being confronted. Before he looked down and realized that the earbuds were not in fact plugged in to the phone.”Oh god,” he said, pausing the video and plugging the earbuds back in. “I’m sorry, I have no idea how I didn’t realize sooner.”

[chenrv]

he watches baohui connect his earphones in silence “ ...it's okay. just be careful. ” chen clears his throat, frowning to himself at the flash of irritation he suddenly feels. “ um. are you done for today? ”

[rvtiwi]

“hey, i think scope blue and byulbit antares are going to be in china at the same time this month!” tiwi gushed, checking the schedule her manager sent her on her phone once more to be sure. “we should get some of our groups together and do something fun! we could take pictures for fansites too if we really wanted to, but i think it could be cool bonding! you know, both super groups’ mandarin units and all~” @chenrv​ @rvbaohui​

[chenrv]

he glanced up at her and offered a small smile. “ yeah, ” he agrees. “ that'd be nice. ” it wouldn't be so bad, righ? if they could find the time. “ feels like i haven't seen antares in ages... ”

[rvhyunsik]

chenrv​:

“ oh. that’s, uh, that’s good to know… ” he says slowly, nodding. “ thanks. ” he adds after a pause, offering a small smile suddenly embarrased.

“No problem,” Hyunsik responded. “You didn’t lean back in the paint, did you?”

[chenrv]

“ i don't... think? ” chen fumbles for a moment trying to check himself but very clearly failing at it. he probably looks like a dog chasing its own tail. how embarrassing. “ uhm. actually... can you help me check? ”

[rvraein]

“i got asked in an interview yesterday about how new age chooses who’s in what unit, and i feel bad, because i just froze,” raein said, rubbing the back of his neck. “i have no idea what’s going on– do you think new age knows what’s going on?” @rvroyi​ @rvsangmin​ @sangheerv​ @chenrv​ @rvbaohui​ @rvquin​

[chenrv]

the question bounces around in chen's skull for a while before he even realizes that's he's probably expected to give a response. “ you're fine. i think— i think i would have reacted the same. ” chen assures raein. “ hm, they should. they created our concept, after all... ”

xiaojun ♡ a cup of coffee pt.3 

[chenrv]

“i can’t…” he trailed off absentmindedly as he looked up at the sign before him, eyebrows drawn together in confusion as the idol did his absolute best to read the korean letters that were on the sign that hung above but failed. “i can’t read it.” he admitted softly, cheeks taking a pink tone as he hesitantly turned to look at the other. “can you—can you tell me what it says? please?” @rvxeunsung @rvsangmin @rvroyi @rvjunxi @kiyoungrv @rvhyunsik

[rvsangmin]

“it’s the parking validation instructions,” sangmin explained kindly, putting a comforting hand on chen’s back. he could only imagine how hard it was being in a country where you didn’t fully understand the language or the alphabet yet, but especially on the level of an idol. “you don’t really need that information– it’ll be more useful to our managers and driver. but i can still tell you what it says if you’d like. it could be good practice.”

[chenrv]

“ ah, i see. ” he nods his acknowledgement. chen startles a little at the sugestion and flounders for a bare moment. he spares a single glance sangmin's way, shifts uncomfortably and shakes his head mutely, his ears prickling with embarrased. “ no. i'm fine. ” he croacks out finally, even though he wants to defend himself against — against what, he isn't really sure. sangmin wasn’t making an accusation. “ we should go find the others. ”

[chenrv]

“i can’t…” he trailed off absentmindedly as he looked up at the sign before him, eyebrows drawn together in confusion as the idol did his absolute best to read the korean letters that were on the sign that hung above but failed. “i can’t read it.” he admitted softly, cheeks taking a pink tone as he hesitantly turned to look at the other. “can you—can you tell me what it says? please?” @rvxeunsung @rvsangmin @rvroyi @rvjunxi @kiyoungrv @rvhyunsik

[rvhyunsik]

Hyunsik imagined that learning a whole other system of letters had to be pretty difficult, and having an easy time with reading was realistically something he took for granted. “It says they touched up the walls with paint and to not lean against them,” he explained to his friend.

[chenrv]

“ oh. that's, uh, that's good to know... ” he says slowly, nodding. “ thanks. ” he adds after a pause, offering a small smile suddenly embarrased.

[rvxeunsung]

“honestly? it’s a garbage font. i can barely read it, and i’m a native korean speaker. don’t like…beat yourself up or anything,” eunsung answered encouragingly. “it says italian food, which….. i don’t necessarily trust.  i think we should probably go somewhere else to eat.”

[chenrv]

it should be reassuring, right? but chen finds himself pressing his lips together in a little disappointed grimace, he thinks eunsung is lying. “ okay. ” he says forcing a cute, blank smile on his face, just like he'd do if they were being filmed on camera for real. “ we could... there’s a small tteokbokki place i normally go with the scope guys— we could go there, if you like. ”

 “ so—— what’s it like being in s. o. s now? ” he tilted his head, genuine curiosity in his eyes. “ does anyone treat you differently now that you're debuted? ” @rvxilhoon
