Saja Boys reacting to not having a fortnite skin
OR how the saja boys got a manager.
A/n: In my head as much as they caught up with modern media they're not THAT caught up.

Bobby is currently buzzing in his spot with a smile that rivals that of a kid on Christmas day. The girls look up from the couch exchanging curious glances. Bobby takes a deep breath before asking “Remember how I said that I had a surprise for the three of you?”
Zoey gets up from the couch immediately walking towards him, standing by his side trying to take a peek at Bobby's phone over his shoulder. He clutches it closer to his chest to keep the suspense. Mira just smirks from her seat, “Yeah the one you’ve been on the verge of spoiling all week? mhm”
“Well-” the elevator dings and new yet familiar voices can be heard faintly. This time Rumi gets up with a smile walking towards the newly arrived group of idiots. She tugs Jinu along into the living room, holding his hand and Jinu is currently pretending to be nonchalant about it.
“You’re just in time, Bobby's finally going to reveal the surprise he has for us.” A few more footsteps and thumps are heard as the rest of the boys settle around the couch. Mira rolls her eyes and stays quiet, more interested in what Bobby has to say than stirring the pot this time. Zoey waves briefly at them before returning her full attention to Bobby.
“As I was saying, as of today Huntrix officially has their own… Fortnite skins!” He turns his phone around and now both Rumi and Mira join Zoey to take a look for themselves.
“Oh my god! I can’t believe how good they look!” Zoey jumps as Bobby zooms in to the different aspects of the skins. They're all huddled over the phone examining the images.
“Right? They’re so detailed! It’s almost like they cloned us.” Rumi smiles brightly and Mira smirks.
“Now I can kick ass as myself, awesome.”
The boys exchange furrowed eyebrows and concerned glances. Jinu takes a step towards Rumi's direction. “Uh, What are you talking about?”
She looks up and grabs Bobby's phone to show him. “Oh just our fortnite skins-”
“Fort..? Night?” Romance repeats confused.
“Skins?” Baby and Abby narrow their eyes.
“You're changing your skin?” Jinu looks Rumi up and down with wide eyes full of terror. Mystery… he's equally confused under that purple waterfall. Probably.
Rumi closes her eyes mentally thanking Zoey's yapping because if Bobby heard them speaking like this he'd think they're weirdos. I mean they are but that's because the last time they were alive you could die from a tooth infection. Rumi pulls up the images on her own phone, since they're all over social media officially announced. She slowly slips away and gestures for the boys to huddle over her phone.
“Whatever you’re thinking, you’re wrong.” She purses her lips as they look at the screen.
“I don’t get it, isn't that just a picture of you?” Jinu mumbles with furrowed eyebrows and the concentration of someone on the brink of scientific discovery.
“Kind of? So what we mean by skins are basically like changing the appearances of characters in a game… well, in video games… Do you guys know what those are at least or will we be here all day?”
The five boys exchange looks until Baby saves the day… sort of, “I know what they are and how they work, but I forget the terminology for a lot of it. I even tried to convince Jinu we needed to buy a ps5…to help with integrating with humans of course.”
“...right, well you aren't entirely wrong. Everyone in this day and age knows what videogames are. Remind me to give you guys a lesson on being normal.” Jinu side eyes Rumi but keeps comments to himself.
“Back to the topic, so basically there’s this game called fortnite. It’s free, you can do a lot of different things but mainly you can shoot pe- other characters, who are played by other people. And you have to pay to get the characters or cosmetics you want.” Rumi isn't sure whether that's enough of an explanation for a senior citizen of 400 years but that will have to do for now.
The boys nod along and Baby makes a mental note for later. “So if I wanted to play as you, I’d have to pay? How much?”
“Well the bundle is thirty fiv-”
Jinus' jaw drops “Thirty five dollars?!” his blood pressure pulses ‘back in my day’ in morse code.
“That’s a robbery” Abby crosses his arms and Mystery grimaces.
“And people…work…and…buy…that.” Romance strains as he gestures vaguely to the screen.
“That’s bullshit.” Baby scoffs.
Rumi ignores them and continues “Well, you’d get all of these things. Digital things but you know.” She swipes so they can see the entire bundle that includes the three girls, their weapons (who they fooled Bobby and the audience to believe they are props), emotes and other accessories.
Baby tilts his head “So, in videogame terms, this is a good deal?”
“Well yeah, if you wanted an individual one it would be 15 dollars-”
They all glance at each other and agree not to comment on the youths' spending habits right now.
Rumi sighs, “Just trust me, I know what I’m talking about.”
“Wait, why didn't we get one?” Romance pouts crossing his arms.
“Well, I mean, you guys haven’t been around that long, as the saja boys at least and you also don’t have a-”
“But we’re just as famous as you are, that counts for something doesn’t it?” Jinu frowns as if he didn't learn about this a minute ago.
Rumi strains a smile trying her best to be patient. “Yeah that is true but as I was saying-” she glares to shut down anything the other boys were about to say. “You don’t have a manager.”
A singular ‘ah’ is shared between them and a few murmurs of ‘makes sense’ and ‘damn it’.
Baby lets out a tsk “Jinu this is all your fault I told you we needed a manager.” and the rest of the boys nod.
Bobby picks up on that last sentence like a sleeper agent and immediately joins the group. “The Saja Boys need a manager I hear?” He’s buzzing in his spot once again.
“We do but I wouldn’t want to impose-” Jinu rubs his arm and looks at the others with a glare.
The girls are worried it’s going to be too much workload for Bobby…and they're also concerned because he doesn’t know he’s working with geriatric demon idols. They aren’t able to express their concerns as Bobby responds beaming with joy.
“Nonesense. Consider me your manager from now on.” Bobby pulls out his phone and starts planning immediately.
“So… are we getting those fortnite skins?” Jinu glares at Abby and discreetly slaps him on the stomach. Mystery, Romance and Baby avoid looking at each other knowing one of them will laugh.
“Uh YEAH!” And that’s the last they hear from Bobby as he steps aside to make some phone calls.
The way this aged beautifully because Jinu did in fact get a fortnite skin, not the others though
