⤷ dance for the camera

lgcsomin​:

     when she had heard that dohyun was going to be hosting his own vlive show, she had wanted to volunteer immediately. it was something that she was interested in, considering that she loved to dance and was always caught up with the newest songs and choreographies of kpop. and also, they were kinda friends so she wanted to help out where she could. if it was possible, she hoped that dohyun’s show would be successful and that maybe she would get a shout out for appearing in the first season or whatever. it’s a fun idea either way, and she needed the practice on being on variety shows so she thought it was a win-win situation for the both of them. 

     it was kind of exciting to be on one of legacy’s shows, even if it was only a vlive one and not one that was broadcasted on national television or anything. it was a bit less nerve-wracking this way and hopefully she wouldn’t be too boring. hopefully, again, her time on lgc girls summer had prepared her enough for this.

     “if you don’t mind, i want to do the dancing,” somin answers easily, hoping that she would know all of the songs that they would give her. if not, she could probably get away with trying to charades her way through the title or something and give him hints that way. hopefully, all her days of trying to learn hit dances after music videos were released would give her some advantage here. also, with the fact that legacy had just officially debuted three boy groups, she hoped that the producers slash dohyun would’ve chosen any of the title songs from type zero or v&a because she definitely knew those. and most dbsd and haru and blazin’ songs too. she was ready for this. 

a small part had hoped that somin would want to do the guessing first just so he could do the dancing. as a dancer mainly, he was sure he would do better at that part than having to guess first. but, somin was the guest and it was only right that she got to choose which bit she wanted to do first. so, dohyun tried not to look disappointed as he smiled, nodding his head as he held the headphones in his hand a little closer to his chest. “okay! you’ll be dancing to some choreographies for me and i’ll have to try and guess what song you’re dancing along to.” hopefully he wouldn’t make her look bad by making some horrible guesses. 

“there should be a screen behind my head which will start showing dance practices from various groups, it’s just your job to try and dance along to them for me to guess,” easy enough to understand, but he could imagine it would be a difficult task. especially if it was a group or song that you had never even seen or head of before. dohyun had sprinkled in some well known songs into the mix, but he’d also put in a few songs which many people were going to know. even he hadn’t known the songs as he added them, let alone what the choreography was supposed to be. 

smiling, dohyun nodded his head before putting the headphones over his ears, almost jumping from how loud the music playing in them actually was. with these on and the loud music there was no chance he would hear anything else. talking was also probably a bad idea, so he simply offered somin a thumbs up to start. he could do this.

@lgcsomin

even though his show was underway, dohyun still felt incredibly nervous about the whole thing. knowing that probably thousands of people were there currently watching this broadcast was starting to make him sweat uncomfortably. it was even harder given that this whole show was his original idea and he didn’t know how people were going to like it. what if they ended up hating it and, therefore, ended up hating him? what if they hated his guest for appearing on his show as well? that was the last thing dohyun wanted. somin had agreed to appear as a guest and he at least wanted her to give a good performance. 

dohyun tried to push those uncomfortable thoughts to the back of his mind as he grinned brightly at the camera. he didn’t need to worry, this was still the beginning and hopefully when the games he had come up with got underway it would be entertaining enough to make people laugh. 

“so, we’re going to move onto our first segment!” he announced proudly before producing a large pair over-ear of headphones. “the aim of the game is to dance along to a song while the person wearing the headphones has to try and guess the song and artist just from watching the dance.” he thought that was simple enough to follow along with. besides, he had explained all of this beforehand with somin, the explanation now was more for the sake of the viewers. “so, would you like to dance first or guess first?” he asked as he turned to somin, wanting her to make the decision.

indylgc​:

indy still had mixed feelings.

he didn’t really think he could say no when legacy added him to the trainee evaluation group. even if he could, he knew he probably shouldn’t say no. but it felt like he should say no. it still felt like that now, off and on.

as much as he would’ve loved to wholeheartedly enjoy the variety workshops, and this amazing opportunity to have his own vlive show, a heaviness came with it, because his best friend should’ve been there. jiahn was dropped from this group just a few months earlier, for not being a sufficient leader even though he was the youngest and didn’t have any experience. indy still didn’t think that was fair, and it was worse now, with legacy, for some reason, adding him. 

he was no suitable replacement for jiahn. if jiahn were still here, indy would be overjoyed to be a part of all of this with him. when it was just jiahn as part of the project, it made indy a little uneasy, because the goal was to debut, right? and he wasn’t ready for his best friend to be so busy.

the goal in being here was to debut, right? indy wasn’t ready for that, and he knew it. maybe, eventually, he would be, but without jiahn? before jiahn? nothing about it felt right.

it didn’t feel right to drop out either, though, especially when presented with something so fun to accomplish this month. indy decided that for now, he would stay– that there was always the chance to leave at any time. 

in the meantime, he would do his best to enjoy everything, as always, and as always, indy did a good job of hiding that he had any worries at all.

with the latest workshop ending, however, indy would once again be left alone with his thoughts– which was why dohyun approaching offered such a welcome distraction.

“hi!” he greeted him enthusiastically, with a characteristically bright smile. what show idea did he have? “yeah! i have a few…too many i think, actually, and i don’t know what will actually be allowed,” he laughed. the smart thing to do would be to check with legacy staff to see, but indy irrationally feared rejection and was never smart, so he chose to lightly agonize over it instead. “what about you?”

the fact he was on good terms with at least one of the other trainees did somewhat help settle his nerves. if everyone around him had been complete strangers then he didn’t think he would nearly be coping as well as he currently was. but indy had always been nice and friendly to him the times they had ended up talking, so dohyun allowed himself to feel just a little more at ease around the older and more experienced trainee. 

dohyun did try and echo the bright smile he was offered, but he couldn’t really manage that. he wanted to be happy and cheerful about things, but he was just too damn nervous about it all. he was still expecting for one of the coaches to come over at any second and yell at him for not being good enough. he still didn’t hold out much hope that he would remain a part of this eval group for a long time. he had more or less convinced himself that this was just going to be a passing thing so he might as well try and enjoy it while he was here. 

but enjoying things while you were too busy being nervous was a pretty hard thing to accomplish. 

“oh,” it seemed as though indy had some ideas. too many of them, apparently. where as dohyun didn’t have the first clue about what he wanted to do. “i don’t really have any idea at all,” he did admit with a small frown, “variety is not really something i... have experience with.” and he still didn’t think he was going to be very good at it. he could sometimes be funny when he wasn’t trying, but when he actually had to think about it he didn’t think he could pull it off.

⤷ Dance Dance Disaster Plot Call!

now it has been announced, i’m looking for two victims guests for dohyun’s vlive shows - dance dance disaster. i say victims, it should be a fun time so please give this post a like if you’d like to be on the show. i’ll throw what this whole show’s gonna be about under the cut as well so you’re not walking in blind as well, so make sure to give it a read to make sure you’re all cool and know what your muse is getting themselves in for, hehe. 

guest one: @lgctaiyou guest two: @lgcsomin

THE SHOW

- the first segment of the show will be a fun game where one of them will be shown a video of a  performance/dance practice of a song without the other person seeing what it is, and they will have to try and dance along to it for the other to try and guess the song and group who performs it. points will be awarded for correctly guessing the song and the artist. 

- the second segment is basically chinese whispers but with dancing. so if you don’t know how the game works i would recommend giving it a quick search but it’s not hard to understand. with the lovely help one of of the staff getting dragged into things, the person at the front of the line will be told a song and then then everyone has only 20 seconds to pass it down to the person at the back of the line and guess what song it is - but it has to be through dance! so you could try and dance out the title, or try and remember an iconic bit of the choreography, up to you.

@indylgc

dohyun was still feeling all kinds of uncertain about the fact he was doing the trainee eval. it felt really weird to him. ​he certainly hadn’t been at the company for as long as some other trainees, so why they had picked him was beyond him. it was not like he felt worthy of being in the eval group, and he didn’t even really think that he belonged there, either. but he was trying to push all those negative feelings down, he was trying be optimistic. he was in the eval group for a reason, right? and he wasn’t going to end up making a right fool of himself and proving that he didn’t deserve to be a trainee in the first place. 

but the problem was this evaluation really was not his comfort zone. he wasn’t a funny person and he wasn’t a good host, either. the workshops they were being put through was quite a challenge. but what was even more challenging was the fact he was going to have to come up with his own show idea. now dohyun had a couple of ideas, but he really didn’t know if they were actually good ones or not. so, he decided that he wanted to talk to someone else and get some imput. which was why he was now approaching indy after one of the workshops. 

“hey, indy,” he offered quietly as he approached, “do you have any idea what show idea you’re doing yet?”

[dohyunlgc]

⤷ and that’s a wrap : solo

dohyun was feeling rather out of breath when most of the filming was over and done with. which was funny as he was pretty sure he had spent most of his time sitting on the floor in jail compared to running around the mazes with anyone else. at least the whole world would no be able to really see how bad with directions he actually was. and how lucky he apparently was as well. which had still come as great news to dohyun himself. but at least now he knew that no one should ask him to do anything that involved chance as he was not a very lucky person and would probably just end up messing it up. 

the last bit of filming left was just making a comment on what he thought of the whole experience. and while dohyun did have some select thoughts on how things had gone, they were probably not things that should be said in front of a camera. so, he simply decided to keep those such thoughts to himself. no, he should probably just be nice and positive and say some generic thing that was not going to end up getting him into trouble with anyone. the last thing he wanted was to be in trouble for saying the wrong thing. 

“it was really hard!” he exclaimed first, giving a rather dramatic sigh as he put his hands on his hips, “i’m really out of breath. but it was still super fun. but i think i need to work on my directional skills before next time.” he gave a small laugh at that, even if it was not the funniest thing he had ever said. “but i did enjoy myself lots and i’d love to do something like this again!” that was a lie, he would really rather not have to run around getting lost in a maze again anytime soon. 

but that was all he had to say on the matter and he simply smiled one last time before he was dismissed. that’s when the ‘camera demeanour’ vanished and he slumped his shoulders and stopped smiling so much. all he needed now was to cool off and maybe find something to eat as well. all that running around had made him really hungry.

lgckeeho​:

keeho listen nodding his head, his mouth formed an o shape as the words “ohhh.” escape from between his lips. “me? i’m from seattle, washington.” he smiled. there wasn’t anything too interesting about seattle. he wasn’t even sure if the other knew about that state or city since it wasn’t like the popular la or new york. but he couldn’t complain seattle has its perks. 

“i lost my partner too. with everyone running and the mirror all up there’s no way you can just stick to one partner.” keeho was native to think that he was going to make it to the end of the maze with his partner. there was no way that this would had been that easy, otherwise where would the fun be. “but i do like it in a sense that i get to run into people that I’ve never met before.” before he could keep on talking the staff spoke letting his know that his 5 minutes were up and it was his turn to roll for a change to escape. “wish me luck” he laugh. 

standing up to take the dice from the staff.  those 5 minutes passed by pretty quickly when there was company. holding the dice in his hand he began to shake them, keeho wouldn’t consider himself lucky but if he manage to get out on the first try then he maybe he believe in this like luck. “give me a double!” he yelled as he toss the cubes onto the floor. his eyes stuck on them as if they were glue. a number 2 showed up and then a number 5.  keeho fell down to the ground dramatic “no! i  guess im still in jail.”

dohyun blinked a little with surprised as keeho mentioned that he was from the united states. “you are?” he hadn’t expected him to be a foreigner, “that’s pretty cool. what brought you to south korea? were you scouted in the states or something?” he supposed that made sense. he knew that legacy held auditions abroad as well so it could be possible that he had gone to an audition in america and moved here when he was signed. 

at least keeho understood what it was like to lose your partner in the mazes as well. “i tried to stick together, but i looked around for a moment and when i looked back we had been split up,” which was a little suspicious. dohyun did have to wonder if he was actually just ditched on purpose or not. “i guess, but this is not really a great way to meet new people,” it was just confusing and dohyun would rather make new friends when he wasn’t stuck in the same room for almost half an hour rolling dice to try and get doubles. 

“good luck i believe in you!” he made a little face cheer, punching the air with one hand to try and be a good supporter. unfortunately, it didn’t appear to be enough and keeho failed to roll a double. “i guess so,” dohyun agreed with a small nod of his head, “but at least you have some company.” though maybe for not much longer as he would have to roll again in a couple of minutes if he thought he was keeping track of time as well as he was. then again, it was rather hard to track time when you were stuck in the same room for minutes and minutes.

lgckeeho​:

if there’s one thing that keeho should had been working on was learning how to filter out things he should and shouldnt say.  he would blame it on his age but then again that was just how he was and bad habits were always more difficult to change. “is this too cruel?” he thought loudly, “shouldn’t there be like a..” he pause trying to remember those game show he used to watch back in the state. “life line? where we can ask for help?” 

keeho couldn’t help but shake his head, the maze itself was a joyride for him. there were several people that he met and a long the way he would have to say that he was able to find a way out to get to maze two but thanks to him letting his guard down he was sent here, to jail. “you didnt enter the maze by yourself did you?” he just wanted to make sure since that’s what it sounded like. “I think I lost my friend pretty quickly” he laugh thinking back to easily it was to lose people. “then again I did sprinted off without them” 

“kang dohyun,” he repeated the name, though he spoke mainly korean with his parents he picked up the habit of repeating names to make sure 1, he remember it and 2. that he pronounce it correctly. “nice to meet you! im keeho, han keeho.” he smiled “19 years old and a third year.” usually when people hear that he’s a third they would assume that he’s older but that wasn’t the case. keeho was quick to audition once he was of age to. “well since we’re here for a couple more minute might as well get aquatinted with each other. where are you from?”

dohyun could only agree with that statement, shifting his head into a small nod. it was pretty mean not for there to be some kind of lifeline or something he could do to actually get out of this room which didn’t involve putting his terrible luck to the test. maybe when they had come up with this game they hadn’t actually thought that someone would be so bad at rolling dice that they would end up trapped for this long. maybe now they were seeing it happen, next time they did something like this they could take it into consideration. for his benefit, anyway. because this was just dead embarrassing. 

once again he shook his head, “no, i was with someone else, but they ditched me. or we just lost each other.” either once was possible, dohyun wasn’t really sure. it was dark in that maze so he really didn’t know if he was left on purpose or if his partner had turned a corner and left him behind without realizing until later. of course he had tried shouting, but that had just told everyone where he was. even the chasers who ended up catching him and putting him in this stupid jail in the first place. 

“it’s nice to meet you, too!” he announced with a grin, trying to take note of the name, the fact he was older and he was a sunbae. he must have been talented to be signed for so long and when he was younger than dohyun to boot. but just thinking of that was making dohyun’s inferiority complex rise up, so he simply tried not to. “where i’m from? i grew up in incheon with my parents and older siblings,” nothing all too exciting about that. a lot of people had grown up there. “but what about you?”

Wasn’t he a child actor? And he still doesn’t know how to act in front of a camera ㅋㅋㅋ No wonder he was never popular like his sister ㅋㅋㅋ 

He looked so nervous at the start. But I thought he danced really well. Dohyun hwaiting! ~

I was so surprised when he started dancing! I thought he was going to be a vocalist. 

he’s so young but he has so much potential and talent!! i’m definitely going to support him! 

oh no, not another dancer… does legacy need this many dancers??? he’s not even that good anyways…

THE GOLDEN TICKET

daehwilgc​:

so much for hitting the gym but if it was to better his future than he could skip a day to help the other around. from his view point it did not seem like the other was too familiar with the place. who could blame him though? Daehwi himself still get lost at time but he somehow manage to always find his way to the front of the building. Daehwi plan was not to ask about the other’s sibling right away but instead be friend him and well be a friend - if he knew what being a good friend meant. 

“january, that explains why I havent seen you around as much.” it could had also be because they didnt dorm together. beside he himself rarely saw the guys that he dorm with as well. Daehwi was more kept to himself and that was how his parents raised him. “Dohyun, nice to meet you. I’m Daehwi. Choi Daehwi.” he stopped to look around for a moment there wasn’t much here so he was curious as to what the other was trying to look for. “where are you trying to go?”

if anyone who knew of him, would know very well that Daehwi was not the type to help out anyone let alone a stranger. lucky for him those kind of people were not around. “i’ve been here for only a year but I like to think I know my way around pretty well.” an easy conversation starter maybe this could lead to a smoother conversation later about the gossip that he heard back there with the two girls.  

dohyun still didn’t really want to admit to anyone that he was horrible and absolutely lost. it was ever so slightly (more than slightly) embarrassing to admit that he still couldn’t find his way around the building he had been coming to basically every day for almost a year. you really would think that he would be able to at least find his way around with any issues. with how long he had been here you should think he would be capable of helping other people out if they happened to get lost. not the other way around. 

“i guess so,” he agreed with a smile and nod of his head. that and there were an awful lot of people at the company building on a day to day basis. it was probably impossible to know every single person or be familiar with them all. dohyun was pretty sure there were people he might have seen in the past that he would have forgotten already. “but it’s nice to meet you,” and now he had been introduced he would try and remember the other male. 

and then dohyun paused, awkwardly rubbing the back of his neck. maybe he could still play this off like he knew where he was going and wasn’t lost. maybe he would get lucky and this trainee was heading in the same direction. “oh, i was just heading to the cafeteria,” he lied quickly. it wasn’t where he was going, but it was more likely someone else might be going there as well. and, once he was there, he would know where he was and (hopefully) be able to find his way. 

[dohyunlgc]

⤷ take it slow : solo

dohyun did enjoy parties, he did, but he had never really celebrated halloween back home. it was not ever something his parents had taken part in, and therefore, not something that dohyun was all too familiar with. all he remembered from every halloween was looking out the window while other kids his age all went on trick or treating. and then school the next day where they bragged about how much candy they had gotten their hands on. the time of year was always a point of jealousy for dohyun, so it did feel awfully strange to be dressed up at a halloween party. in fact, he was pretty sure it was his first time at an event like this. and it was exciting. even if incredibly confusing to tell who everyone was because they were all dressed up in costumes.

but even if he was excited he was still a little nervous and unsure about things. the trick or treat room had certainly been interesting and he was pleased with how he had danced, but now that was over he was expected to have fun at a party and mingle with other people. usually not a problem, but he still felt out of place at legacy, unsure of if he still deserved to be here. and now he was in a room with trainees and models and actors and idols and he just felt as out of place as ever. 

he was a little unsure of what to do with himself as he awkwardly stood near the back of the room, hands cupped around a drink of soda as he watched everyone else. maybe at some point he would actually go and find someone to talk to or try and dance, but for now, he was more than happy just to hang back. humming softly along to the music, dohyun took a small drink of his soda with a little smile. today he would allow himself to relax just a little and try and enjoy himself, tomorrow he would start worrying more about his future as a trainee and whether he would make it to the next halloween party or if he would have been kicked out by then.

lgckeeho​:

it wasn’t like his pain was funny to keeho - at least that’s what he had hope the viewer wouldn’t see. it was just him to be laughing almost non stop. that was his personality but not everyone would understand it. “ah, I guess you can be stuck in here forever if there is no time limit.” shaking his head from side he tried to not let out another outburst of laugher. “give my man here a break please.”

even if he wasn’t trying to be cute keeho couldnt help but smile “aw, cute!” he said once more unable to bite his tongue. “sorry, I just say it without thinking sometime.” keeho could only laugh at the others remark. he too would feel the same about those dice if he was still in this jail cell for awhile. taking a seat on the ground keeho listen to the other while nodding his head. 

“not very far?” he repeated, a force of habit of his when he was shock by something. “well I cant talk, I just almost barely made it out of maze 1 before getting dragged right here.” he looked around for a moment, taking the time to take in his surrounding. “though I would say I like it here so far, gives me a moment to catch my breath.” its been far to long since he ran this much, so it wasnt unusual when he had to stop to grasp for air. “by the way, since we’re going to be in here together for some time, mind telling me your name?”

“it’s really starting to feel that way,” he mumbled rather bitterly, doing his best to give the dice sitting there taunting him a good glare while he was at it. not that it was the die’s fault he was being rubbish, but they were still the things keeping his trapped here. maybe he could work out how to cheat. he could drop them at the perfect time instead of just trying to throw them normally. would the staff notice? 

once more he was called cute and dohyun just huffed, not really having the energy to argue it. they could sit there all day arguing about whether he was cute or not and they wouldn’t get anywhere. “it’s fine,” he instead offered with a small shrug of his shoulder at the apology. it wasn’t really fine, but he didn’t want to get cross at this other trainee had had never even met before. most likely he was a sunbae, and it was not a good idea to get on the bad side of your seniors. 

“i didn’t even make it out of maze one,” once again his voice sounded mournful, the pout back on his face as he thought about it, “i just kept getting lost and walking into dead ends over and over again. i’m pretty sure i ended up going in circles.” so it was no surprise that he had ended up here in this stupid jail to suffer. but then the other trainee was asking him to introduce himself and dohyun smiled, sticking out a hand for a shake. “kang dohyun. i’m a first year,” he might as well add that bit in, “nice to meet you. though i wish the circumstances were a little better.”

❤.· EARLY BIRD

lgcjieun​:

as she listens to the younger boy’s concerns and reasons to stay up training to the point of falling asleep in the practice room, she wonders if that’s how it feels to have a younger sibling, because she wouldn’t normally feel annoyed towards a coach who was pushing the trainees to be better and achieve their dreams, but she can’t help but frown a bit, wondering if they couldn’t take it easy since he was still a new trainee. when did she start to care? well, maybe because she told her friend she would look after her brother.

“they won’t kick you out if they see there’s room for improvement,’ she says quietly, trying her best to sound reassuring and encouraging. “the problem is when they don’t care anymore and just tell you to stand in the back and turn a blind eye on your weaknesses.” and she believes that, because sometimes it’s like enough is never enough for coaches — praises are as rare as shooting stars — and accepting that would make the process less painful.

taking a sip of her drink, she stretches her neck to the right and left before turning to dohyun again. “you should get a dance partner. if you are practicing together, you won’t fall asleep here and there’s someone to point out your mistakes,” she suggests with a faint smile. it’s not simple, she knows, because not everyone wants to practice when they could be doing something more fun. “mm text me when you need it. i’m not an idol trainee anymore but… i like dancing. i actually miss practicing.” sounds insane even to her own ears, but jieun is a workaholic. 

dohyun always knew that becoming a trainee was going to be hard work. he wasn’t expecting to just come here and have an easy time of it. it was going to take hours and hours of hard work and a drive to get better. but maybe a small part of him had hoped he would have a slightly easier time with things. that he wouldn’t get shouted at so much. that he would actually impress people with his ability to sing and dance. but after almost a year at legacy he had yet to feel as though he had accomplished anything noteworthy. 

“but they might,” he stressed with a small sigh. it was always the worry in the back of his head. that they would simply realize signing him in the first place was a huge mistake. that he wasn’t good enough for this life. that all those other companies which had turned him down in the past were right and he should never be an idol. “i just... i just want to prove i can do this. i’m willing to work and get better. i need to prove myself.” 

cupping his hands a little more around his drink, the teenager huffed out yet another sigh before taking another small sip. but then his wide eyes turned to jieun at her sudden offer. “but... i don’t want to bother you or anything. i mean, i usually end up practicing pretty late and i don’t want to keep you up or anything.” no, he’d just end up feeling pretty guilty for keeping someone else up.

bend it like beckham

lgcxcameron​:

at first hwang felt like the main character in a bond movie, was a bit confident in his skills of getting around the lasers in the maze he was in. he was sorely mistaken. he should have stretched, properly, before trying to pull himself close to the floor. he definitely hadn’t ever been close to hitting the splits in his life, now was no exception despite his time training in dance. his body decided to remind him of this fact when he tried to lunge to the floor to avoid a tricky laser.

he finally was able to make it over but at what cost? he shook his head and took a second to lean against the free-standing wall beside him. his calves were stinging a bit with the burn of staying on the balls of his feet for so long.

rustling to his left caught his immediate attention since he was no longer focusing on the beaming rays of imminent jail time. it was good to see a familiar face in dohyun. his roommate showing up was somewhat of a coincidence but it was welcome and had hwang smiling and calling out to the other trainee. “dohyun-ah, be careful and stretch a bit before coming in okay? it’s kind of brutal in here…”

@dohyunlgc​

dohyun found it nothing short of a miracle that he had ever made it out of the first maze in the first place. but imagine his disappointment when he found himself face to face with another maze, but this time there were lasers which wound send him straight back to jail. at least jail was familiar to him at this point after getting lost and caught so much in the first maze. dohyun honestly felt as though he had spent more time in the jail than he actually had out of it. 

at least he might have the advantage in this one as he was a pretty flexible person by nature, always keeping himself loose thanks to all his dance practice. but it was still a maze and he was no doubt going to suffer getting lost all of the time. his sense of direction was not going to be coming back anytime soon. 

he was making progress - very slow progress - but progress all the same. pressing his beck against the wall and inching along to try and avoid one of the lasers, a voice suddenly caught his attention. he hadn’t even noticed cameron and the seemingly hundreds more lasers in front of him. “oh, um, okay,” he called back, not really sure how he should respond to that one. “are you alright?” it did indeed look pretty rough. “do you need some help? i could help you navigate and tell you where to go?”
