she is helen of troy: the face that launched a thousand ships. she is cunning as persephone, anarchic as eris, wise as athena. (she is a goddess in her own right) 

it turns out he is a god, too. 

(“i don’t love you–– i don’t know what love is.”) 

no one ever tells her that love can be soft, love can be gentle, love can be kind. she thinks love is obsession. love is bite marks and open-mouthed kisses and oh god yes, right there, fuck. but it doesn’t matter in the end–– she has never been soft, or gentle, or kind; and neither has he. 

he’s a paradox that she can’t quite figure out, an itch that she can’t quite scratch. he hurts her with his words, and pleads forgiveness between her thighs. so she forgives, and she forgets; because absolution comes easier between moans. 

(“i fucking hate you,” she hisses, and with the same pair of lips she’ll kiss him over and over and over again; a prayer to a loveless god.) 

she is his, and he is hers. until he isn’t. 

he’s cold, she has always known that. her only downfall is forgetting that ice can burn too. 

(she is icarus who’s flown too close to the sun)

❝ did you honestly think i was lying? aw zitao, you’re going to hurt a girl’s feelings like that. ❞ eris could be ruthlessly competitive, destroying her rivals’ careers without a single thought if they posed a threat to her position. she’d never seen zitao as a threat though –– as popular as the male was, she saw no reason to compete with a model, of all people. and while he was technically her senior in the industry, eris had seen him struggle with what was asked of him by the company. despite that he never wavered, always determined and hard-working, and eris respected that. ❝ look, i know you don’t trust me –– and i don’t blame you, i wouldn’t trust me either –– but i do know what the… clients like, and that always makes the whole ordeal easier. take whatever i tell you with a grain of salt, but keep it in mind nonetheless. ❞ and then almost as if she hadn’t just been discussing their side-job as escorts, she flashed a smile, head tilting in the direction of the elevator. ❝ i’ll accept a lunch as thanks, if you’re up for it. ❞

she’d hooked her thumbs around the waistband of her jeans, just about to remove them when the younger girl’s half-teasing warning stilled her hands. glancing up, she followed lina’s gaze to the portrait of said baby jesus that was on display along the hallway outside the changing room. it was ironic that such an art piece would be hanging in a building full of sinners, but she supposed the interior designer had either been ignorant, or possessed questionable humour. ❝ i think baby jesus can handle seeing me in a bikini. ❞ she threw a grin at lina before proceeding to slide her jeans off, followed by her top, to reveal the red two-piece she’d worn underneath. ❝ i’m already going to hell anyway. ❞ she winked, thoroughly unbothered by the thought. she wasn’t religious anyway, and she didn’t think hell (if it did indeed exist) could be any worse than the land of the living. if she had to, she’d fuck her way to the top in hell too. ❝ c’mon, get stripping. it’s cold and i want to get in the pool. ❞

“You were right. As per usual.”

↳ [ STRANGE SENTENCE STARTERS // accepting ! ]

❝ of course i was–– wait, what was i right about again? ❞ she’d been just about to leave the company gym when her fellow label mate –– and sort of friend, she supposed –– stopped her, looking dejected. it was a familiar look, one that eris often saw on the faces of people who placed bets against her and lost. ❝ oh my god, don’t tell me mr yoo actually grabbed you during vocal training–– ❞ they’d had a new vocal coach recently, and upon first look, eris had declared that he seemed like a pervert, and a bet had been placed on whether the shady mr yoo would molest his students. she wrinkled her nose slightly in distaste at the new revelation. while eris wasn’t above sleeping with company staff for the progress of her career, she was serious about improving herself as an artist, and a handsy vocal coach did not suit her agenda. maybe she’d have a word with kade about it… but nonetheless, there was an entirely different issue to address at the moment. her earlier grimace replaced by a grin, she wrapped an arm around the other girl’s shoulders to pull her towards the changing rooms. ❝ i believe you owe me 10,000 won. ❞

STRANGE SENTENCE STARTERS —— for the creative writer in you. Send these in and see what your partner comes up with as a scenario!

*These are completely interchangeable, they’re just in categories to make it easier for all of y’all.

FOR AMIGOS;

“How many times are you going to do that, exactly?”

“You were right. As per usual.”

“Sometimes it’s hard to see the lines you’ve drawn until you’ve crossed them.”

“You’re surprised because you have a soft spot for hot blondes.”

“Is that – that’s a naked Scarlett Johansson on your fridge.”

“You can stay, but for no more than two nights.”

“Please don’t look in this drawer. Please.”

“I told you not to pick him up, he’s very sensitive.”

“Yes. I might have given you rabies. But in my defense, that’s ridiculous and I didn’t.”

“I’m sorry, my cell phone data coverage does not cover the bullshit zone you’re in.”

“Hey! Give me your pants. Quick, give me your pants.”

“No, I’m serious. Stop it right now or I won’t give you the last cookie.”

“You think I’m kidding. But I’ve never been more serious about anything in my entire life.”

“How much would a stripper cost and why so much?”

“I’m going to buy you a drink. Next week. On Thursday. When I get paid. Can you swing this one?”

“Hippos are hungry, hungry! And you are considerably larger than a small piece of lettuce!”

“When I was little, I used to be afraid of mummies. And now look at me. I love dead people!”

“I don’t even miss my ex-boyfriends/girlfriends, I just miss my glockenspiel.”

“It happens to everyone, you just sell your skirt for some coke.”

“Please do not pull your pants down in front of baby Jesus.”

“That’s not the phrasing you want to use.”

“Because nothing says heterosexuality like a gold sash.”

“Please don’t take it out on my boobs.”

“When it gets really windy I look like a bizarre combination of Marilyn Monroe and Cousin It.”

“We have to change our names and run away to Mexico. It’s the only way. Adios.”

“How much money do you have on you?”

“Please tell me that’s a raisin and not a tiny hamster shit you’re eating.”

“Life is a lot better when you put things on your head.”

“For someone who’s not very deep, I’m incredibly not shallow.”

FOR LOVERS;

“I need you to remind me what it feels like to love you.”

“I love you. What? No I don’t. Forget I said anything.”

“I need you to tickle my feet but like, sexually.”

“If we got married, would I have to take your last name? Or could we just make up a new one?”

“I don’t think I can do this anymore.”

“I heard you say his/her name in your sleep last night. Want to explain or should I just leave?”

“I want to spend the night with you tonight. But I also want to sleep on your side. And without you on the bed. So technically I just want your bed.”

“Please don’t be proposing to me in an empty parking lot.”

“Stop saying you’re sorry, you stupid fucking broken record. It’s done.”

“I’m not jealous, I’m curious. About the things you were doing. With him/her. Without me.”

“Your mother’s looks could kill. Actually, are you sure they haven’t before?”

“If you’re breaking up with me tonight, can I at least eat first?”

“Stop sweating. It’s not attractive during sex, and it’s not attractive now.”

“Are you – are you checking me out? In the line for the confessional?”

“We have to go. I might have told your mom I’m pregnant. I don’t know why I said that. I’m not.”

“So what you’re saying it that you’re snorting sugar to get excited for sex.”

“My dog licks better than you do.”

“But through every stupid thing you do and say – and those are a lot, by the way – I love you.”

“I don’t care if you’re growing another head. I’ll talk to both of them. I love you.”

“And I’d take fifty years of not talking to you for just a day of doing so. I promise that’s a compliment.”

“I don’t want to hide this anymore. I’m not some dirty little secret, you American Reject.”

“This is a bit too dramatic for my taste, so can we skip it and have sex instead?”

“I don’t want you to think of me as your personal sex toy.”

“Thanks and all, but that makes me feel like a low-class escort, so.”

“A kiss in exchange for every nice thing you say about me. Deal?”

“Promise me you’re not like him/her. I need to hear it from your mouth. Promise me.”

“Look, I’ve had my heart broken before. I’m not ready to let you in just yet. Anywhere.”

“Don’t leave me here. Anywhere else, okay, but not here.”

“I wish I could say that was the worst sex I ever had, but I’ve had worse.”

“I just blew you. Could you look a little happier about it?”

“I’m attracted to shiny things, so if it looks like I’m staring at your chest, it’s because I am.”

FOR TEXTERS;

[text] This is upsetting my poop.

[text] Hey, are you up? If you’re not, can you wake up? I need some help.

[text] So it involves feces and large birds.

[text] She said that to you? Why?

[text] Please come back. I miss you.

[text] What are you good for if you’re not gonna bring me ice cream?

[text] Can you ignore that last text? It wasn’t meant for you. I’m sorry.

[text] …did you just send me a nude?

[text] FUCK OFF YOU ONE-EYED WHORE.

[text] I don’t know why I said that.

[text] Leave it to you to fuck the simplest of requests up.

[text] Do we have to go to their wedding? He’s only my first cousin.

[text] How much does ‘I love you’ mean to you?

[text] I am not stalking you. But you should do something about your bathroom, it’s gross.

[text] Please. I need this so badly.

[text] I trust you completely.

[text] I’m a genius. You’re a peasant. Everything makes sense again.

[text] Hey, buddy! Got like, five hundred bucks I can borrow? Times ten.

[text] She lost it. She completely lost it. She said her uterus was attacking her bone marrow.

[text] I will not get you donuts.

[text] Please? I love you.

[text] I think I’m gonna go to sleep now, but you keep thinking that.

[text] I can’t say this out loud. They might be listening.

[text] I never meant to hurt you. I didn’t think he’d duck when the ball came at him, I’m sorry.

[text] You’re cute.

[text] I just need you to understand how important you are to me.

[text] Fuck off.

[text] Okay. Guess we’ll leave it at that then.

“Do I specifically need to tell you about my neighbors?” Arching a brow once again she gave the other a look that said it all, showing her usual attitude towards being told what she had to do, which wasn’t something she liked. Pushing her finge back, a few strands being tucked behind her ear Hanako shrugged a shoulder in reply. “The way I know you it will be by tonight.” Taking a crescent shapes were here eyes as she wrinkled her nose while speaking, a simple gesture to show that she was only joking around with her friend. Wrapping her thin fingers around her glass she took a sip from her drink, still half full and slowly becoming warm due to the heat inside the small, chic bar. A breath enters her lungs as she thinks about Eris’ question and she’s almost too taken aback by the words as she perks her lips to the side. “It’s been some time. Maybe five months ago?”

❝ well, no. but you should’ve known i’d be interested in cute neighbours. ❞ she wrinkled her nose slightly at the other, sheepish grin on her lips at being on the receiving end of one of hanako’s looks. she knew her friend was merely teasing, but there was truth in there as well –– eris had always been adept at getting men to invite her to bed. even in an age where women were shamed for their sexual endeavours, eris had always taken pride in her desirability and talent in bending men to her will. ❝ i could do it by tonight, but i promised i was yours for the night, so... maybe tomorrow night instead? ❞ she joked back, her soft laughter filling the space between them. she thanked the bartender when he placed her newly made drink in front of her, throwing in a little flirtatious smile just because she could. but she was quickly distracted by hanako’s answer, and she gave a small hum in thought before speaking again. ❝ do you want to get laid though? because i could totally help with that. ❞ she paused, taking a sip of her drink as she let the suggestion sink in. ❝ be it finding guys for you –– though i’m pretty sure you could do that just fine on your own –– or y’know. you could find out how great i am in bed for yourself, that works for me too. ❞

☢ — - Drawing unnecessary attention to himself is another thing Jaebum completely loathes but taking orders from a stranger goes against his pride. In the end, the excited murmurs and the possibility of people filming them is a highly unwanted act so he reluctantly sits on the chair opposite her. Not bothering to utter a word yet, he wonders if he can break her cool exterior by just watching her at a closer distance (too close in his personal opinion). But as Jaebum bores his eyes into hers, he realises what type of woman she is: the type who enjoy the thrill of a challenge. It reminds him of a particular girl he has in mind but he quickly refocuses on his current mission. 

         Taking small careful sips of his plain dark coffee, Jaebum stares at her in cold hostile fury but her words cause him to snort and he remarks coldly. “I didn’t start this. You did.” He wants to analyse the crowd in the coffeehouse to see whether he can safely escape from this woman now but he can’t tear his eyes away from her just yet. He’ll win this. “No. Especially if he doesn’t look interested.” Jaebum raises a brow at her – unsure of where she’s going with this. With his straightforward nature, he puts it out there bluntly. “I’m not interested. Eventually I did notice and you ruined my peace. Haven’t you ever felt someone’s eyes on you for so long that the hairs on the back of your neck stand up? It looks creepy especially if you smile.” 

         Now is his cue to leave so he finally darts his eyes away from hers to glance at the crowd but to his utmost horror, he spots a familiar blonde haired woman. With a sickening feeling, he prays it isn’t her – a particular Russian woman who used to be his mentor for possession of firearms for a while but it ended up with her wanting possession of him. There is only one way he can think of avoiding her and that includes the woman currently opposite him.

         Jaebum hates himself for doing this and he tells himself he rather take the easier and more hassle free route which is pretending to be with this woman. So he drags his chair next to hers and awkwardly wraps an arm around her since he gets the feeling that she won’t beat him to pulp for touching her without permission since she did call him cute. Through gritted teeth, Jaebum forces himself to smile as he ducks his head closer to hers in hopes that his face gets partially concealed from sight. “So how was your day… sweetheart. Tell me all about it. I finally finished up my paper on the basics of quantisation of matter. What do you feel like doing after this? How is your coffee? I don’t have to sue this place, right?”

          For once, Jaebum’s mind goes blank and he comes up with whatever pops in his mind first just to get a conversation going to get him blended with the landscape of the coffeehouse but his desperation to avoid the woman is that bad but he remains serious in his acting although he’s sure he’s going to try and walk out on the streets to get himself hit afterwards. So he passionately hopes for the female to play along for now at least. 

she wasn’t sure whether his declaration of disinterest was supposed to offend her, hurt her, or put her off, but she supposed it didn’t really matter when she wasn’t deterred at all. now, eris would never force herself onto anyone, because maintaining public image aside, she had some morals, but that didn’t mean she would leave him alone either. while he did seem thoroughly annoyed with her, he hadn’t seem to react otherwise aversely to her actions, and so she knew she hadn’t crossed any personal boundaries yet. 

❝ i’m sorry if i made you uncomfortable, ❞ she offered, finally. she may not have been apologetic in the least about staring, but she could at least muster a twinge of guilt at having disturbed his routine. ❝ you’re the first guy to call me creepy though. i think i might have to work on my smile. ❞ the comment was followed by a smile, one that was certainly far less predatory than the last, borne out of actual amusement. ❝ and hey, who said i was interested in you like that? i find plenty of other guys attractive too. ❞

his gaze wandered from hers, and she leaned back on her chair, making no move to stop him from making his exit. while it certainly would be a shame that he hadn’t stuck around, eris wasn’t the sort to beg people to stay. she didn’t get attached easily –– people were welcome to come and go as they saw fit. but just as she thought he was getting up to leave, she found herself being pulled against his side. she was surprised for just a fraction of a second perhaps, before she leaned into him as well, the perfect image of a loving girlfriend. 

he smelled musky, and she let herself wonder for a moment whether that was how he smelled naturally or if he had cologne on. from up close, his grey eyes were more vivid than ever and she found herself reluctant to blink when met with his gaze. she wasn’t sure who he was hiding from at the moment, but she thought he couldn’t have picked a better acting partner than her. this was what she was good at –– becoming the person that someone wanted her to be –– and if he needed her to pretend to be his girl for a bit, then she’d make sure she did a damn good job of it.

❝ you’re finally done? thank god. you’ve been spending so much time on it the past week i was starting to wonder if i’d gotten dumped for an essay. ❞ the teasing laughter came easy to her, and she took advantage of their close proximity to watch him, catching his gaze flicker to the blonde woman ordering at the counter. for here, the woman had said, and seeing as the only available table was the one across them that her male companion had just vacated, he’d surely be in trouble if they didn’t get out of there before she sat down.

an idea popped into her head and she gave him a cursory glance, satisfied that the only majorly distinguishing mark about him was his eyes. ❝ i have a surprise for you, actually! we can go right now since you’re done, but you have to cover your eyes. ❞ pressing a small kiss against his cheek –– if he asked she’d tell him it was just to make their act more believable, and while that was part of it, she did it mostly to annoy him –– she placed his book into her satchel and gently took his hands, guiding them to cover his own face, before pressing her own hands over his. ❝ c’mon, let’s go. ❞

he was a little taller than her, but she was thankful that she was able to see over his shoulder at least, minimising the possibility of her accidentally guiding him into objects and drawing attention to the both of them. he must have been really desperate to avoid this woman, if he was letting her take the lead like this, but somewhere along the way it’d become her agenda to avoid the woman as well. she hardly dared to breathe as they passed the woman, despite the face that she seemed markedly disinterested in anything besides staring at the barista making her drink. it wasn’t until they were a few metres out of the cafe that she finally released his hands, stepping away from him to put a respectable distance between them again. ❝ i believe this is yours, ❞ she’d dug his book out from her satchel, holding it out to him. ❝ you’re free to go now, mister. ❞
