Suitcase after suitcase rolled around the floor of the KATSEYE dorm, while K-pop songs blasted from the kitchen, where Sophia was cooking the last meal you'd have with them before your overseas promotion schedule began.
The whole house was uncharacteristically chill for the time being, except for one room.
You knelt beside and open suitcase on the floor, folding a hoodie from the Gap promotions you had gotten for free into it, right between the t-shirts. Your passport rested on the nightstand next to the printed schedule, which had highlighted parts and handwritten notes from you.
For the next three weeks, you'd be gone to long list of other countries to begin promoting various luxury brands. It was a short schedule compared to the one you had planned as a group, in fact, short enough that nobody will really miss you.
Or so you thought.. that's when Yoonchae comes in, speaking of her…
"Huh…?" The neatly folded hoodie was gone from the pile of clothes. You blinked twice, looking around for it, until your eyes landed on the beds, the right one being Yoonchae's, who was curled up against a pile of blankets staring at her phone. You crossed your arms. "Yoonchae…"
No response for a few seconds, until she lifted her gaze up lazily. "Hmm?"
"My hoodie." You looked at her with a raised eyebrow.
"Which hoodie?" She asked, faking innocence.
You walked over, lifting the blanket, only to find your missing hoodie and an old t-shirt you had gotten at a thrift store. "Seriously?"
Yoonchae looked down as if she'd only just realized they were there, and stopped you before you could take them back to the suitcase, hugging both clothing items. "Hey, I need these!"
You laughed slightly "For what?"
"I just… I need them."
"Come on, I need to pack before noon." You tried to get them out of her grip, but she proved to be even more resilient. "Yo, stop." You said, getting on top of the bed, taking the hem of the hoodie in your hands.
"You have other hoodies, wear one of those!" She protested.
"But that's the cool one, I can't show up with my old raggedy clothes to the photoshoot!" You said, letting go of the hoodie to look at her.
"But… this one smells like you." She pouted, eyes widening as soon as the words left her mouth. "I- forget I said that." Heat rushed to her cheeks immediately.
You couldn't help but laugh, soft and genuine. "You're the cutest, you know that right?"
She hid her face behind the hoodie to hide her embarrassment, but it was already too late. Without another word, you sat beside her, leaning against the headboard, as you stared at her for a few seconds.
"I'm gonna miss you." She admitted, giving you back the hoodie, which you rejected, putting it back in her arms.
"I'm gonna miss you too…" You smiled, kissing her forehead as she hugged you.
The sweet moment was interrupted by Sophia, who called you both to eat, and to tell you that the manager had called, saying that the van taking you to the airport was going to come earlier due to traffic concerns. She left the room and Yoonchae seemed to have become dejected.
"You're leaving so early…"
"I know, I know… but I'll be back." You smiled, closing the suitcase up.
These were going to be a couple of really long weeks…
…and yes, they were, actually, a couple of really long weeks for Yoonchae.
In fact, not even a week had passed and the girls had noticed how miserable she was. She was the embodiment of the ":(" face all the time, a constant frown etched to her face, but coincidentally, every time you'd call her in the middle of the night from the current city you were in, she'd answer without a doubt, and then she'd be her usual self again for a few hours.
And one day, erm, night for Yoonchae, you sent an image of a cafe you were in, sitting in a cute dress in the middle of a busy European city while you ate your favorite dessert: cheesecake, with the caption 'look how cute this little place is!!! ヾ(≧ ▽ ≦)ゝ' Yes, kaomoji included in the text.
That made the gears in her head turn, and she decided that for your much awaited arrival date, she'd make cheesecake, just for you. Screw diabetes, your happiness came first!
So for the next few days, she'd been mysteriously leaving hints that something was being planned for your return. She didn't say anything concrete, but it made you want to end these promotions faster.
Fun fact: all the while you were gone? She slept in either your hoodie, or your old shirt, feeling comforted by having something of yours nearby. Every night you called, every time you texted her saying 'this made me think of you' and showing an image of anything, was something that she cherished, and was so grateful for.
Until one night she scrolls up in your chat, attempting to feel better about you not being by her side, and she sees the picture of you at the cafe, a slice of cheesecake sitting in front of you, and it reminds her of her initial goal: making that cheesecake.
She goes full on into the kitchen, trying her best to honor the picture and make it look and taste exactly like that one.
First one collapsed, as she left it out for too long and it didn't freeze properly. The second one was too gooey, and it didn't have the right consistency overall. The third was so sweet one taste felt like you were eating a ton of sugar in one bite. The fourth one she burned, somehow. The fifth one was almost perfect, but something was missing, and eventually, she makes the perfect one, smiling as she puts it in the fridge.
She felt proud of that one, and as she closes the door she thinks '(Y/N) is gonna love this one!'
…then, a few days later, the news came.
An article titled 'KATSEYE member spotted looking unusually close to well-known model' got published to a European gossip website, which circulated the internet until it landed on Yoonchae's social media.
In one pic, you were laughing together between shoots, in another you were seen sharing an umbrella under the rainy weather, then another one that seemed to be of him fixing your dress for the cameras, and the last one, of both of you looking at the pictures in the editor's computer screen, faces close to one another. The article was accompanied by 'insider commentary' of staff, that seemed to be implying that something more than friendship was going on between the two of you.
The almost last line of the article read: 'fans are starting to suspect that there's a relationship here'. Which was followed by an avalanche of social media posts suspecting you and this model had been dating for a long time now.
Sophia blocked all the news related to the article and your supposed 'relationship' with the guy from Yoonchae's phone, since the leader knew how much it affected her that this was all going on.
You and Yoonchae had only begun dating a few months ago, and now this- this article comes out? It made her feel disrespected in some way. And of course, she was… jealous. Jealous that the public was thirsting over you and this made-up relationship, when she was right there! She was your girlfriend, not this guy!
But of course, she trusts you, she does! She knows you better than anyone else.
Until she feels like she doesn't.
Suddenly, calls become shorter, or they never come at all, texts never responded pile up in your chat, and she can see the pictures posted, where you're in a fancy dinner with celebrities, filming commercials, wearing expensive dressed and talking with top-notch people, and it hurts her, it hurts her so much that she can't help but feel like she's only second to all this.
She tries to understand, but the timing couldn't be worse. Why did this all come out right now, when your relationship was so fragile?
Yoonchae falls asleep that night, hugging the hoodie you left behind, wondering if you're okay.
Meanwhile, you have no idea why management says that you need to stay quiet on this.
Every single time you open social media there's a flood of comments and new 'insider info' on your 'relationship'. Your first course of action was to text Yoonchae, but staff had made it very clear that you couldn't.
You understood they were just trying to do their jobs, and protect your career, but the emotional side of you wanted nothing more than to hear your sweet girlfriend's voice, and reassure her that everything is okay, and that you're not leaving her for anybody.
But things proved harder than just that.
Finally, the day you were arriving home came. After thousands of calls ending in 'I'm sorry, I have to go, they're calling me to work', you were here!
Of course, Yoonchae was the most excited, so she offered to be the one to go find you at the airport. She was completely exhausted, but she was resilient, so she went anyways. Exhausted from what, exactly? Well, after 3 weeks of endless worrying, articles and tabloids coming out to fuel the fire of the burning jealousy she felt, anybody would be tired too.
She had told herself that news lie all the time, that would never, ever, do that…
…but still, there was that pesky little voice in the back of her head that refused to disappear, saying: 'what if it's true?' and those thoughts made Yoonchae release a heavy sigh, her head hanging low in disappointment.
"Yoonchae!" Someone called.
Her head snapped up, and that's when she saw you.
You walked through the doors with a baseball cap pulled low over your eyes, a mask covering half your face, your suitcases rolling behind you, as two staff members followed closely behind, speaking quietly with your manager. Despite the cheerful demeanor you tried to present, it was clear you were tired too.
"Hi." Was all you managed to say before Yoonchae crashed into you, her arms wrapping around your waist with enough force to almost send you backwards. You laughed, stumbling a step and immediately wrapping both arms around her.
"There you are." She said, her voice small, as she buried herself against your shoulder. She was wearing your hoodie, yeah, the same hoodie she had stole from you before all of this happened.
For a second there, it was like the airport had disappeared, and there was only the two of you in an embrace.
"I missed you so much." You whispered into her hair.
To you, she looked different, still beautiful, but you felt like something was bothering her, trying to hide it behind her tired smile.
You cupped her cheek. "You okay?"
Her smile arrived a bit too late. "Yeah, I'm okay." It would have been convincing to everyone else, but not for you, but you thought that if she wanted to tell you, she'd do it on her own, so you let it slide for now.
Arriving at the dorm, it looked exactly as you left it: a mess. Except that when you entered, it seemed to have something different in the air, specifically how it smelled. It now smelled sweet, like vanilla.
You slipped off your shoes as you said: "Did Sophia bake something again?" You smiled, about to laugh with your girlfriend about the time Sophia baked cookies and Megan and Daniela ate them all without sharing, but for some reason, as you said that and looked towards Yoonchae, she only seemed to stiffen.
"Oh, wait…" You said, smiling widely. "…Did you make something?"
Yoonchae rubbed the back of her neck. "Maybe?"
"Can I see it?" you asked, impatiently moving around like a kid on a holiday.
"It's probably not that good…" She hesitated, switching the weight of her feet to the other.
"I'm sure it is." You reassured her.
She slowly and sheepishly walked towards the refrigerator and opened it, revealing a strawberry cheesecake. It wasn't perfect; the whipped cream was a mess on top of it, the strawberries looked a little botched, but to you? It was beautiful.
You stared at it, and if the expression 'heart eyes' was real, it would have you as an example right now. "You… you made this?"
"I've been kinda practicing." She said, scratching the back of her head.
"Practicing?" you echoed.
"My first one collapsed."
That made you laugh and filled you with endearment.
"I just… I wanted…" She said shyly, eyes fixed on the cake instead of on you. "I wanted the first one you ate when you got home to taste like your favorite."
Your chest tightened. She spent days, maybe the same three weeks you were gone baking and learning how to do it properly just to make your favorite dessert? That's so…
"…cute." You stepped closer, wrapping your arms around her again. "You idiot."
"Hm?!" She said, a little bit startled by the sudden contact.
"You made all of this for me?" You asked in a lovesick tone.
"I wanted to welcome you home."
"You already did, my angel." You closed your eyes as you rested your head against her shoulder. "I'm home."
For the first time weeks, neither of you thought about schedules, or rumors. There would be time for those conversations. Tonight though, you just were content that you had found your way back to each other.
I'm planning an Illit fanfic with multiple chapters with the help of my bestie @i-glue, from R U Next to the present (not everything will be covered, but I want to write some cute moments between the members and the protagonist + I kinda want to open requests for it too at some point) so should I make it x reader, or x oc? :3 pls tell me in the comments/in my inbox.
YES, GREAT THINGS ARE COMING!! stay tuned (idk when I'm gonna start posting it tho, but rest easy that it's coming!!)
Synopsis: Opening a cafe was YN's dream come true. It's everything he wanted and more. Quiet, off the grid, cozy and a sort of hidden gem in LA's neverending chaos. But never even in his wildest dreams he expected his celebrity crush to become a regular at his little shop.
Pairing: Sophia Laforteza x tmasc! Reader

Who should I write my "A Silent Voice" AU angsty yuri one-shot about? Huh Yunjin or Jang Wonyoung?
In the Wonyoung one, you're the one who is deaf, and in the Yunjin one, she's the one that's deaf. Both have elements of the movie, but ofc I'm trying to make this a little bit more original (to me), also, but basically follow a similar premise to the movie, just inverted.
Anyways, I'll make both versions since both have different premises, but I want to know which one should I make first.
Afterthoughts: I tried my best to be funny here, sorry if it sucks. :D

Debuting as an idol had been your dream since you saw a performance of the legendary girl group Girls' Generation on Youtube when you were a kid. The amazing, talented young women in those white suits dancing in an helicopter port, it… hypnotized you. Especially Tiffany, who was the one who caught your eye as soon as she opened her mouth and her distinctive tone of voice entered your ears.
It was like a switch had gone off in your brain, and suddenly you were asking your parents to sign you up in vocal lessons and dance classes, you were picking up how to play piano on your free time, you were quietly singing "gee, gee, gee, gee" under your breath as you practiced the dance over and over again. Of course your parents still forced you to study and concentrate in your academics, but you knew your calling was the stage.
It all came to a halt when SM Entertainment themselves sent you that e-mail, yeah, the one you had been expecting ever since you sent them your audition videos, and the same one you were checking your gmail account for every single waking moment. The ringing in your ears got louder as you opened it, and read those words you'd been hoping with your whole heart to lay your eyes on: YOU HAVE BEEN ACCEPTED.
The scream you let out woke up your parents, and you're sure the whole neighborhood heard you too, but you didn't care at all about them, you had just been accepted by your dream company, you had the right to be excited.
Next thing you remember clearly is how you entered SM as a trainee, with that confidence and puffed up chest that no one other than a newbie would have. Thinking back now, you cringe at how overconfident you were.
Well, you call it cringe, Stella calls it cute.
Yeah, that's right, another very important component to this story is none other than Stella Kim. Oh, and Carmen is there too.
"Stop staring at her." You remember she said.
"Oh... huh?" You said, faking innocence, making Carmen roll her eyes playfully at you. "I'm not staring, I'm looking at the wall."
"The wall behind Stella?" She teased, making you turn your head from Carmen's direction to the one Stella was in.
And sure enough, Stella was in the middle of her stretching routine, the one she did before every dance rehearsal. She had worn her usual pink hoodie to practice today, you'd noticed. Of course you did! It's Stella Kim, the prettiest girl you've ever laid your eyes on. For a moment, her eyes left the ground, focusing on a much more interesting sight: you.
The second your eyes met, her entire face softened, and she smiled slightly. You wanted nothing more in the world than to make that smile yours. You looked away after a moment of being frozen in place, your face painted with embarrassment.
'Oh she's got it bad…' Carmen thought.
"This is gonna kill me." Carmen said, turning around and walking towards her backpack.
You frowned, following her steps. "What?"
She turns her face and looks at you with the gaze of a thousand disappointed mothers combined. "You guys have been doing this for the past 3 weeks."
"I don't know what you're talking about." You said, smiling slightly.
…
Three weeks later.
Carmen and Jiwoo had made a theory up: either you and Stella were the worst people at keeping secrets in the history of earth, or you were both trying to get caught, and since the other one didn't make sense, they bet their money on the first one.
During practice, the staring had become 10 times worse, and the worst thing was when Stella messed up a step in The Chase choreo, where you stepped in along with Jiwoo and corrected her posture. You took your sweet time to teach her the correct way, all the while you both smiled like lovesick fools.
Carmen rolled her eyes. Jiwoo could only laugh.
It got so obvious that Carmen had to pull you aside and lecture you on how to actually keep secret your relationship. Because yes, in the span of those 3 weeks, you and Stella had become a couple, a very annoying one that was getting on everyone's nerves, but a couple nonetheless.
"I hate you" You whined as Carmen laughed.
"No you don't"
She was right. You didn't hate her at all. In fact, you were so grateful to have Carmen by your side, since instead of exposing you, she kept the secret and actually became your (sorta) accomplice, albeit a very unwilling one, but she was there for you and Stella!
The way she found out was ridiculous too, you see, it was a very poorly timed accident.
Haram and Carmen had entered the practice room one night, and found you and Stella sitting on the floor, side by side… holding hands. In you guys' defense, hand-holding was something that everyone did sometimes, but this was different, and Haram whispered to Carmen exactly that, so Carmen asked: "Are you guys dating?"
You said no, while Stella said yes… at the same time.
Haram laughed in your faces, and Carmen almost let out a chuckle. Jiwoo found out via Haram, and now everyone in the Hearts2Hearts dorm room knew, which was the best thing that could have happened, really, as you and Stella were terrible at keeping your relationship a secret.
So she talked to Jiwoo and they made an 'emergency meeting' in the dorm.
"We've gathered you all here to update you on the Stella and (Y/N) list of rules." Jiwoo said, and began reading off of her phone's notes app. "Rule number one," she said, looking at everyone. "no excessive touching."
You nodded, Stella asked: "What counts as excessive?"
"Honestly? Anything you two do." Ian said, making you laugh.
Carmen read off her notepad, "Rule two: no staring!" She pointed at you, as your laughter stopped.
"Hey! Why are you pointing at me?"
"You're the biggest offender. You look at Stella like you're gonna die if you don't."
As if second nature, you looked at Stella, who was already looking back at you. You looked embarrassed and looked away, smiling.
Carmen wanted to open a window and jump. "SEE? YOU GUYS SEE?" She got exasperated.
Jiwoo continued, "Rule three, no pet names, especially on camera."
"Oh, we don't use those." You said, and everyone just looked at you like you'd said the sky was red.
"You literally call each other 'baby' all the ti- you know what? let's continue…" Carmen was one more offense from jumping, you were sure of that.
"Rule four: no sharing your food."
"Why is that a rule?" Yeon asked.
"And it's impossible!" Stella added.
"Wait, why?" Ana asked.
"(Y/N) never finishes her food, especially the fish." Stella informed everyone.
"How do you know that?" Carmen asked, narrowing her eyes, clearly testing you both.
"I've noticed, of course. It's not weird to know what your girlfriend eats!" She said, her brain catching up with what she had spoken a few seconds too late. Everyone got silent, Jiwoo looked at Carmen, who was already walking out. She buried her face into her hands and murmured "…Sorry."
"Okay, can we all go to rehearsal now?" Ian spoke loudly.
hey ! I wanna ask sum for my girl Lily!! shes been getting on my head recently and I literally need some fanfic of her like, so BAD (￣ヘ￣;)

NMIXX'S LILY MORROW GF HEADCANONS!

Lily would be your biggest cheerleader. Doesn't matter if its a small accomplishment or a huge milestone, she'd celebrate you and hype you up!
I feel like you both have random conversations about the most bizarre topics ever. One minute you guys are talking about what to order for dinner, the next she's like
"(Y/N)… do you think penguins have knees?"
(actual question I had btw…)
These bizarre and weird conversations last for hours btw…
Speaking of weird! She sends you memes she finds on tiktok that she thinks are funny,
even if you're in the same room, a few meters apart.
Thought: you often send weird messages too 😭 so this is an equally bizarre relationship.
You: did you eat a clown today? you're very funny…
Lily: you think I'm funny?
the image she sends afterwards:
she's giggling and kicking her feet at that btw
expect teasing, not in a mean way, just the kind of way that makes you roll your eyes and smile.
She constantly laughs at her own jokes.
She also randomly starts singing in the middle of doing anything.
Affection-wise, she loves holding hands with you!! especially while walking.
While sitting at a park bench together, she leans against you. :3
She also gives you head pats when you do something important/are focused on something.
She also checks on you during the day via text, especially when she's busy working!
"Have you eaten anything?" "Remember to drink water!"
I think her preferred dating spots would be an aquarium! She'd imitate the faces of the fish in there and make you laugh.
She also succumbs to capitalism and buys a plushie from the overprized gift store there.
She gifts it to you ofc <3
You laugh at her jokes? She laughs at your jokes too!! (even when you're not being funny AT ALL)
You: What did the fish say when it swam into a wall? Dam.
Lily:
(don't ask where I got this image from okay…)
She's the type of person that looks at you, smiles, and goes back to whatever she was doing before.
Crazy ahh 😭
Overall, I feel like dating Lily would be like dating you best friend you've spent years with. There's laughter, there's tenderness… everything! She makes mundane things feel memorable since she's just that charming!
srry, I just need to vent but, I NEED some blondchae appreciation, shes been GLOWING since she dyed that hair (not that she wasn't beautiful b4, but I think that blonde is HER color) but that doesn't reflect on the fandom, like, WDYM IN THE END OF THE MONTH WE GOT LIKE, 13 FANFICS OF YOONCHAE?? Shes like, she's BEAUTIFUL, like what??? 😭😭
I need some fanfic of Yoonchae, like, PLEASE 🙏💔
Hey anon, I know this wasn’t your intention but this ask made me think about how people seem to ignore Yoonchae, leave her out of posts, and fanmade content in general, and often excuse the fact that they do so with “I just don’t want to write for a minor” or something of that caliber, but the problem with that logic is that… Yoonchae is not a minor anymore.
Listen, I am the number one complainer when people write smut for idols or celebrities who are barely 18, but I’m not talking about smut here, I’m talking about regular fanmade content, like fanart, fanfics, video essays, amongst other media.
This has led me to firmly believe that Yoonchae’s exclusion comes down to various facts, such as:
1. She’s Korean
2. She’s Korean
For the first one, it comes with the infantilization of Asian women. People assume that since Yoonchae is Korean, she can’t be presented in a more mature light, which right now is being done in a disgusting, overly sexualized way, which is I find so weird, considering that she BARELY turned 18 a few months ago…
The second one is because people can’t stand that Yoonchae is in KATSEYE, as she is the reminder that KATSEYE is a half-Korean product. This is especially true with fans from the US, who can’t seem to understand that KATSEYE is half a K-Pop group.
This leads me to the next part: Western KATSEYE fans, especially those from the US.
These are the same people who complain about everything, who cannot fathom that their precious group is anything but a product of their country; and you can see this in the way western pop fans want KATSEYE to disband and for them to go solo, and how they’re always comparing them to Fifth Harmony, and also the people who complain that they dislike it when people call KATSEYE kpop… then what are we supposed to call them if that’s essentially what they are?
This also gets me to my other thought: non-kpop fans in kpop fans spaces.
By that I mean people who don’t know anything about kpop, how the machine works, and are always complaining about kpop-like things KATSEYE does.
And yes, I’m gonna be talking about the reaction to Manon’s “hiatus”.
My dear friend @i-glue had an interaction with someone in a Discord server, where he talked about KATSEYE, and the topic of Manon’s hiatus came on. The non-kpop fans said that this was just a “normal hiatus” 💀
And this is K-pop 101: a hiatus is often the preface for a departure. We’ve seen it again and again, and when my friend pointed this out, these people said “Well, I don’t know about K-pop…” then don’t talk? If you don’t know anything about a topic, don’t give your opinion on it. 😭😭😭😭
Western pop fans seem to have also deluded themselves into thinking they’re morally superior to k-pop fans, or to Korean fans, but they act the same, or even worse towards these young women.
They constantly harass and oversexualize them, and act parasocial as fuck towards them. Evidenced by the amount of people who genuinely seem to think that they’re dating each other.
And just to say: if you think that KATSEYE is dating each other, and your evidence is composed of blurry pics, forced interactions, and some out-of-context interview clips… you need to go outside and touch grass, IMMEDIATELY.
Also, it’s funny to me that the same people who spent years saying they’d never get into K-pop, or that K-pop is trash, or anything of the sort, can now be found in KATSEYE’s fandom, which is so hypocritical, considering that, AGAIN: KATSEYE is half a Kpop group. They literally were advertised as the first girl group to be created using the Kpop methodology of training… 😭😭😭 get out of Stan Twitter and use your heads for once!!
Anyways, rant over. 😀 Hope yall leave comments, I’d love to read your thoughts on this!!
hey! esnupi, right? :) so, could you make ILLIT x Music Producer!Reader?

Yunah, confident as ever, walks into the studio, plops down onto the chair next to you and says: "I'm bored." with the most whiny tone ever.
You look over at her with a smile on your face, one you don't try to hide. "I'm kinda in the middle of work right now."
Yunah looks at you with a playful side-eye. "And?"
she's actually very attentive when you're working!
She usually sits quietly and lets you explain why the song isn't working, or why the melody feels flat.
She also wants to dip her fingers into producing, so she makes really thoughtful questions about what to do and what not to do.
And then in the middle of a sentence she spins around in your chair.
She absolutely says "weee!" too… 😭
But the truth is she absolutely loves watching you produce music!
There's something so… attractive about you when you're focused.
She stares at you a lot when you're concentrated.
Which develops into her having zero (and when I say zero I mean ZERO) concern for your personal space once you two become close.
She leans into you when you're listening to demos, rests her chin on your shoulder to look at you writing down possible lyrics, and of course, the cherry on top, she steals your hoodie.
You just heard her come in, she quietly lingered around you, didn't ask questions (weird), turned around, and when you heard the door close, you looked back and your hoodie was gone.
You let her keep it though… 😼
ONCE SHE DEVELOPS A CRUSH, oh… things get interesting.
She's the type of person that thinks they're acting super slick and subtle when they're actually being the most obvious person in the world.
Suddenly, she's asking about what you think of her makeup, or of her outfit.
"Do you think I look good today?" She asks, and when you answer that she looks cute, she just blushes and changes the subject.
That will make her quick her feet and bite her finger once she gets to her dorm.
Yep! she'll be thinking about that for the rest of her week.
Then she starts wearing the things you said you liked.
and she acts like it's a coincidence😭
𝓜𝓲𝓷𝓳𝓾:
I think she's the one that develops the deepest attachment to you.
But also the quietest, so if you're oblivious, you might not even notice it…
She respects you a lot!
Like, genuinely, she admires your instinct when it comes to music.
If you say "I think we should try to experiment more with this" she's willing to do so even if she's initally uncertain of it.
You become one of the people she trusts the most with her ideas.
She's also the member that will sit quietly besides you during a late night at work.
Y'all don't need to talk, just relax, while you're over there trying to figure out if the rhythm is good or catchy.
While you work, time flew by, and when you look at her, she fell asleep on the couch.
You, ever the caretaker, put your jacket over her (the hoodie was stolen by Yunah, remember?)
She legit wakes up an hour later and pretends she didn't fall asleep 😭
"Oh! I was just resting my eyes." She says.
Sure, and the sky is green.
She also remembers the things you say, like your favorite drink, snack, whether you prefer coffee or tea.
The cutest thing is that she will remember it, and she will mention it!
IF SHE DEVELOPS A CRUSH ON YOU…
She doesn't flirt. At all.
She just becomes extra thoughtful and mushy.
When you're working late and sleeping in the studio, a wild drink appears next to your table! with a note signed by her!
She messages you hours later like:
"You worked a lot. Make sure to get some sleep."
Then it's YOU who realizes you like her… 😳
𝓜𝓸𝓴𝓪:
She's reserved around you in the beginning.
Not because she dislikes you or anything, but because she takes time to figure you out.
She watches you work attentively, until she can become comfortable around you.
Once she does, you're SCREWED.
She always acts mischevious, but is secretly a sweetheart.
She also likes how comfortable silence is around you!
It's like she doesn't feel the need to talk all the time, or to fill in the silence when she's around you.
Sometimes she comes to the studio, sits on the couch while doomscrolling, and after a few minutes will ask "how's the song going?"
She will repeat this over and over again.
You also explain what you're working on and why you don't feel like it's going good.
She might not understand producing, but she can help you by listening to the song, and saying how it feels to her.
Most of the time she catches you off guard, since… she's right???
You ask more for her opinion after that.
And she secretly loves that you ask for her help.
She also doesn't like experimenting with the song until her vocal chords dry, but rather she'll know something isn't quite right just by listening to her take.
As I said before, she might not know how to explain it technically, but she will say "it doesn't feel right."
AND SHE'S RIGHT.
You learn to trust her instincts more.
When she becomes attached to you, she'll look for you in the studio, and ask for you if you're not there.
and when it's the opposite? when it's YOU looking for HER?
That's when you know things are getting serious 😼
𝓦𝓸𝓷𝓱𝓮𝓮:
Initially was afraid of you.
If you're like me, and have resting bitch face, you know what I'm talking about.
Wonhee legit thought you were intimidating.
You could be writing down some new melody ideas, or lyrics, and while she's in the studio to record her parts, she's thinking: "I did something wrong."
Why? Cuz you looked at her.
That's it, that's her argument. 😭
Eventually, she realizes that you're actually very very very easy to talk to.
She becomes incresingly more comfortable with asking you questions.
Like the time she came up with a random melody and mustered up the courage to ask you if it could work.
In turn, you encourage her to experiment with music instead of worrying about it being perfect.
You become sort of her mentor, saying something wise and profound, like "You don't need to make it perfect, you just need to make it exist."
(was that actually deep or am I just corny? 😭)
AND THE ADVICE STICKS WITH HER!!
She also get so so so excited when you compliment her! To the point where you literally watch her face brighten.
"That take was really good." You say, your eyebrows lifting slightly in surprise, a confident smile on your face.
and suddenly miss girl wants to record 20 more takes if you were to ask her to.
and as time goes by, she starts popping more into the studio.
"Do you not know how to knock?" you ask, cup of instant ramen noodles in your hand, chopsticks in the other, mouth half full of those delicious carbs.
"I knocked!" She says, almost laughing at the sight.
"When?" You say, slurping the last of the noodles.
"In my heart, of course."
corny ahh 😭
𝓘𝓻𝓸𝓱𝓪
You gotta be strong to deal with Iroha's gaze.
she's legit miss 'I'm gonna stare at you until I know everything about you'.
She's perceptive, so she notices things earlier.
She notices when you're tired, stressed and frustrated, or maybe you're hungry, maybe it's all at the same time? Nobody knows except her.
She won't pry, but like Minju, she'll leave small tokens of her appreciation nearby.
She leaves a drink and says "You look like you need this." and leaves without saying anything else.
She's also a hard worker, so if she doesn't get her take, she'll push herself harder and harder, to the point where she will begin crying out of frustration.
That truly concerns you, but you know that if you were to go soft on her, she'll regret it and blame herself.
So you decide to work on it together. Maybe you keep in mind her struggles for the next song, maybe you decide to encourage her to keep practicing the note alone, whatever it is, you both know you can trust each other in that regard.
Her crush on you is subtle, in the way that she doesn't really do grand things to get your attention
she might just sit besides you when you're producing.
Or send you song for your inspiration playlist.
Or ask what you think of her ideas for the choreo.
And eventually, you start to realize that maybe? She just likes being around you.
Y'all have no idea what it's like to be so paranoid that everything I read is AI... I literally curse the day that generative AI was made available to the public, since now I've got myself sweating, thinking that every single fanfic I encounter out there is made with AI...................... I'm paranoid in general due to mental health issues, but this isn't helping me.
Also I will use this as an opportunity to recommend you guys use Ellipsus, a free writing webpage like google docs, made by writers for writers, which is also anti-AI... so like, a better option that google docs, which!! reminder: feeds your docs into AI...
I know my stories are very generic, but still, I don't want to feed a machine that's stealing the work of people who write for a living, or do art for a living in general...
Anyways, rant over, let's go back to being silly now. ✌🏼
