I just read yunhos NSFW hcs and oh my no words, wanted to check other members (new to ur acc) and found none 😭, can we please get a mingi version or sannie or captain or any other members
Absolutely! Thank you so much for asking!!
Allow me to apologize for taking fucking forever in posting this. As a special treat: Here is every single member of Ateez that I hadn't posted yet.
Hey! It's been a minute! I have a few updates for you, some good and some well...
Heres some of the big stuff:
I got diagnosed and medicated for Depression, Asthma, and a handful of vitamin deficiencies.
I got a stalker/ obsessive coworker. She was convinced we were soulmates and wouldn't leave me alone while at work. As of now, it has been 2 and a half weeks since she tried contacting me.
I turned 25! This was just the other day, but I wanted to include it. It was the first time in my life that not only were both of my parents the first to wish me a happy birthday, but my friends were the ones who celebrated with me! It was really nice.
Most importantly, I'm moving! If you didn't know, I'm from California, but have been living in Illinois since Feb of 21. I'll be leaving in a week and spending three days heading back to Cali!!!
It's been a rough, long year. Couple of years, really. I'm hoping once I am back in Cali I can write more and post them for you. Thank you for sticking with me through everything, I really am thankful to all of you.
I want you all to know something very important: You do not owe someone anything, just because they have feelings for you.
Let me explain.
Several months ago, back in August, I went out to a club with my sister and some friends. I had told a coworker that I was planning to go out that night, and that if she ended up at that club, I would buy her a drink. I got dressed up, did my hair and makeup, and had set out to have a good time.
Hours later, and several drinks in, the coworker shows up at the club with her friend. I don't think anything of it, I'm a little drunk at this point anyway. She already has a drink, so I tell her I'll buy her one later. We go our separate ways, me to the outside bar with my sister, and her to the dancefloor.
Later comes at 3am. My friends are winding down, so I head to the inside bar to buy her a drink and close out my tab. We're both drunk, so we sit and chat at the bar until some guy comes over at buys us both a shot of tequila.
Then things got weird.
We started dancing, and she's trying to pull in close and kiss my neck. She's tiny and weighs almost nothing, so it takes little effort to keep her back. I figure "I'm hot, and she's drunk. That's all this is."
I finish my drink, and go home.
A few days later at work, she admits to having feelings for me.
Now, I'm technically her boss. I'm one of the managers on site, and she is an hourly employee. I turn her down, I explain that I'm not looking to date, and that our company frowns upon that kind of relationship anyway. I'm polite, and maybe just a bit too kind. I'm convinced that we can be friends. Afterall, she's friends with my sister and has been for ages.
It seems fine for a while. We have similar spiritual beliefs, and I help her to reconnect with her spiritual side. She says her spirit guides say I'm her mentor. I'm honored, really.
Then, things start getting weird. She begins asking if she can visit me in California when I move. Then it escalates to her planning to move anyway. She tells me her spirits guides want her to follow me, that I'm her soul mate and she's my mentor. She won't take no for an answer until I stop giving her room to argue with me.
Not long after this, I realize I'm probably Acesexual. I've never been ashamed of my sexuality, and I tell people. Including her.
Days later, she confesses her love for me again. Tells me again that I'm her soulmate. She tells me that she "knows why" I say I'm Ace, as though it's only to reject her, or someone else that had admitted something. She tells me that she would be down to have sex with me if I ever wanted it.
Again, I let her down gently, too gently. I tell her I wanted nothing more than to be her friend. No sex, no romantic relationship, nothing else.
I think, for a few days, that maybe she understands.
Then the gifts start. A tarot deck, a chunk of amethyst, lunch every so often. I don't think too much about it. It's always left on my desk. Its nothing inappropriate. Sometimes, its gifts from her roommate, another friend of mine.
This morning, I opened my front door and found a gift on my welcome mat. There were no names, but I recognized her handwriting. I ask, and she confirms: she had stopped by my house at 3 in the morning to leave a present on my doorstep. She never asked if she could come over, never texted me to let me know. If I hadn't asked, she may never had told me.
Now, I'm sitting in my office shaking. All the little things she's done over the past few months, every time she replied to my snapchats, or sent me music, or followed me around work to "keep me company" all the red flags I missed, are bombarding me. I'm terrified she's going to break into my apartment, or worse. I don't want to interact with her, but we work together. I have to see her nearly every day for the next seven weeks until I move.
Why am I telling you this?
When I realized what she had done this morning, my first thought was "is this because I danced with her? Did she think I was flirting then and have spent the past 6 months playing hard to get?" I convinced myself this was my doing. That I had led her on.
All I ever did was be friendly.
It is not my fault that she fell in love with me. It is not my fault that she became obsessed. It's not my fault that I don't feel the same way.
And it isn't your fault either.
None of us owe anyone anything just because they like us. It is not our responsibility to make sure they don't lose their jobs over it, or to make sure they aren't hurt by our actions. It is only our responsibility to protect ourselves, our wellbeing, our mental health, our jobs and lives.
Thank you for listening to me rant. I'm super freaked out and deadass scared for my safety rn. Please be careful, but don't be afraid to report people and keep yourselves safe. When you see red flags, especially in coworkers, tell the higher ups. Don't do what I did.
Idk if y'all knew this but several of my stories have been edited and reposted. The overall plot rarely changes but a vast majority of the story has been rewritten.
If you have a favorite story, check on the master list to see if it's been updated or not.
The following are jobs I think Seventeen would have if they worked at a hotel. Keep in mind that I literally work in a hotel, so I promise I know what I'm talking about. Additionally, there are no specific brands in mind, but I do use a few terms associated with Marriotts. (Cause that's who I work for.)
Anyway, enjoy! (Oh, here's the Master List)
~~
Back Office/ Breakfast
Seungcheol: GM/ Owner
Comes from a very well off family, but had always been encouraged to work.
Found this hotel that was run down and in desperate need of repairs and bought it as a project
Now he’s got a Masters in Business Administration, and in Hospitality.
The hotel is his baby, and he’s poured thousands of his own dollars into turning it into a place people want to stay.
As GM, he spends a lot of time in his office working on the administration side of things,
Like payroll, budgets, and renovation projects
He’s constantly thinking of ways to improve the hotel so they’re are always contractors in and out of the building
He always makes a point to come help the front desk if a guest is being testy.
Most people don’t even realize he’s the owner until they threaten to call the owner on him
He likes watching their faces fall when he hands them a business card.
He takes any slight against the hotel or staff as a slight against himself
He also doesn’t accept any guest that insults or is rude to his staff, and isn’t afraid to kick rude people out.
He understands that people have bad days, and that sometimes things break, but he won’t just stand there and let his staff be punching bags.
~~
Jeonghan: AGM
Most of the staff have no idea how Jeonghan got the position.
He doesn’t seem like he’s ever worked in Housekeeping, or the Front Desk
There were rumors that he’d just slept his way to the top
Truth is, Jeonghan has always worked there.
It was his first job back in highschool, as a parttime housekeeper on the weekends.
When everything was going to shit, he refused to leave
Instead just stepped in where needed.
Hes worked front desk, sales, housekeeping, even engineering
He knows the hotel inside and out and can do just about everything.
It was actually his dedication to the hotel that made Seungcheol want to buy it
He’s currently on his last year of a Masters in Hospitality
Mind you, he loves the fact that he doesn’t have to do much manual labor
As AGM he mostly does the supply ordering, hiring, scheduling, and assisting with guests when Seungcheol is busy.
He also tends to be the one to run meetings, as Cheol is surprisingly awful at actually bossing people around.
Despite his teasing nature, he adores his staff, and hand picked them himself
Will verbally destroy anyone who so much as looks at his staff wrong
~~
Mingyu: Director of Sales
Mingyu hadn’t really anticipated getting into sales, let alone hotel sales.
But here he is.
Coming from money means that his parents expected him to study business
He picked Sales and Marketing cause he thought it would be an easy A
Then he fell in love with it, and was crazy good.
He loves making people happy, and selling them part of their vacation is awesome to him
He loves seeing clients with looks of wonder in their eyes or big smiles as they leave.
Every time someone posts a good review or emails him to thank him, he prints it out and puts it on his office wall.
He came to Scoups hotel after getting sick of sports teams at his old hotel.
They were super mean, and he wasn’t getting paid enough to sell a sub par hotel to a bunch of dickweeds.
Now he gets to chat with super chill people, and he loves the hotel.
The hotel really sells itself, but he’s in charge of daily rates, groups, anyone renting the meeting rooms, or people just looking to do a walk through.
He could probably sell a fox its own fur, but trips over his own shoes
The rest of the staff tease him relentlessly, but also loves that he’ll cook for any staff meeting or party.
~~
Chan: Breakfast Attendant
Honestly, Chan needed a job, and he was going to off himself if he had to stay at the restaurant he was at.
He’d bumped into Cheol, Jeonghan, and Mingyu while the three were out to lunch and discussing their recently departed breakfast attendant.
He’d given them great service, despite the manager that was constantly belittling him
And let slip that he was interested in leaving his current server job.
So Jeonghan had left him a business card, along with a hefty tip.
Chan’s taken it upon himself to upgrade the hell out of the breakfast menu
He’s the reason they offer Kosher, and Vegan options.
He’s currently researching other religious diets, so he can make sure everyone can eat.
Usually he only works 5a to about 10 or 11a, depending on the day
But once a week, the day they get their truck, he stays later and deep cleans the kitchen
Don’t even think about going in there without his permission
He’s known for delivering scathing threats with a sweetest of smiles
Speaking of sweet smiles
He’s great with guests, often letting the desk know if a certain guest had a problem with their stay
He’s even managed to get Jeonghan and Cheol to do table touch service on busier mornings so they can interact with guests more.
On slow mornings, he’ll dance along with the music playing on the speakers, mostly to entertain small children
He always has a smile on his face and a few moments to chat with guests, even on busy mornings
The hotels reviews went up significantly when he was brought on board.
Desk Staff:
Seokmin: 1st shift, Market Champion
The Hotel’s happy virus.
Which is important to have at 7 in the morning
Seokmin makes it his mission to get every guest to smile before they leave
He’s always liked customer service jobs but usually people are mean and managers just expect him to take the abuse with a smile
But he’s taken to the hotel like a fish to water.
His work computer always has tabs open with the weather, local events, traffic conditions, and an extra for whatever someone might ask him for
He doesn’t drink coffee at work, but almost always remains super upbeat and energetic
Some of the other staff members think he does drugs
But he’s just a morning person (freak)
Always, and I mean always, has a smile on his face
Even if guests are being literal demons.
Keeps a treasure box of small toys for little kids at the desk
Always singing along to the lobby music when he’s not helping a guest.
As Market champion he’s in charge of making sure the Market is stocked and orderly.
Does all the Market ordering, and has a really good rapport with the delivery drivers and sales people
Love the moments when the lobby is quiet and he can just focus on stocking the market and organizing the storage room
Everyone else loves those moments cause he’s singing along to the lobby music
~~
Joshua: Second Shift, Desk Supervisor
Josh prefers working in the afternoon
You couldn’t pay him to wake up before 10a most days
He’s been in hotels since he graduated highschool
He’d even worked at the hotel briefly back when it was awful
Jeonghan had recommended bringing him back when Cheol was replacing the staff
Shua initially just wanted to check and see how everything was going
Was super impressed with Cheol’s work and decided to stay
He’s been at the hotel the longest besides Cheol and Jeonghan
As supervisor, he trains all the new desk staff, and covers for them if they call in
His temper is pretty short, so he won’t let guests just yell at him for no reason
He’s also a stickler for the rules so expect him to be kicking people out of the pool at exactly 10pm
He does really enjoy his job
He gets to meet new people every day and hear their cool travel stories.
And the staff are all friendly, especially to one another
Plus he’s getting paid really well with some really good perks.
~~
Jun: Night Audit
In all honesty, he got the job cause he was desperate and wanted something with minimal responsibilities.
He’s basically getting paid to watch dramas and occasionally help fold some towels
Yeah, he also had to check in late night guests and handle any complaints that arise
It’s also his responsibility to make sure no one who isn’t supposed to be on the property is there.
But for the most part, its quiet
So he spends all night catching up on Dramas, reading, or playing games
He’s got a total of about 30 minutes worth of actual work to do, since the Audit process is mostly automated
He does live on coffee and energy drinks
Solely because he’s determined to stay awake all night
No one knows anything about him cause he’s rarely ever seen during the day
Most people just assume he’s a vampire or something
He does snag breakfast every morning before he leaves though
Engineering Team:
Jihoon: Chief Engineer
Despite his stature and his age, Jihoon is a veritable genius in terms of Hotel Engineering
He can fix just about everything in the building, from PTACs to door locks, toilets to tiles
His dad was the engineer at another hotel so he got dragged around them alot
Mostly just bounced between local hotels after highschool
Jeonghan hired him after schmoozing with a few other GMs he had worked for and found out how good he was
Now Seungcheol is helping pay for him to get a degree in electrical engineering
Incredibly kind and helpful to any guest he may run into
But prefers to leave the guest interaction to the rest of staff
He just doesn’t have the personality not the patience for stupidity
He isn’t afraid to climb up the 20 foot ladder to fix lights on the lobby ceiling
He is however, terrified of walking into a guest room and finding a guest.
Will check 20 times with the desk to make sure the room is empty
He’s walked into too many rooms with naked people
If you can’t find him, check the roof
He has an ongoing feud with the solar panels
~~
Wonwoo: Information Technologies
Computer whiz Wonu has arrived
If its on a computer, he can fix it
Most of the staff are convinced Jeonghan recruited him out of federal prison
He doesn’t care enough to correct them
Also its kind of embarrassing to admit that he had no friends and taught himself everything there is to know about computers because he had too much time to do so
He was just a child prodigy and graduated college super young
Jeonghan literally got him off of Indeed
Is never seen without a coffee or energy drink
He used to drink so many that Cheol and Woozi had to limit him to two drinks, and a max of 8 shots of espresso a day.
Tends not to interact with guests
Partly because he always looks ready to kill a man and Cheol doesn’t want to hear people complain about that
Partly because he’s super shy
He’s another person the rest of the staff know nothing about cause they never see him outside of work
Seungkwan swears he saw him at an internet cafe once
But Wonu refuses to acknowledge that
~~
Vernon: Second Shift Engineer
As a college student, Nonnie can’t work a regular 9 to 5.
So he works 9p to 5a instead
Jeonghan hired him at Cheol’s request
He wanted someone on property during the late nights, when problems tend to arise.
Usually all he has to do is fix PTACs, the occasional door lock, and help people get connected to the internet.
Mostly just hangs out with Jun or in the Engineering office watching sitcoms
Cheol hates it, but Vernon’s unofficial uniform involves a tie dye hoodie and a pair of headphones
He also usually has a coffee, but that's more because he’s an eternally tired college student
His degree is actually in Mechanical Engineering,
Which tends to shock everyone when they remember
Cause he’s a bit of a space case.
Housekeeping:
Soonyoung: Housekeeping Manager
If we are being honest, He’s only the manager cause he’s been here the longest
He mostly just handles the housekeepers boards, inventory control and day end inspections
He’s also incredible at removing stains from carpets and couches
He’s worked as a housekeeper for about a year straight out of highschool, but let for greener pastures
He’s been in housekeeping for years, and even worked as an Ops manager at one point
Jeonghan tracked him down at the hotel he was at and convinced him to join the crew as manager.
When he gets serious, he’s a force to be reckoned with
But usually he’s a full on goofball
Cheol keeps having to shoot down his idea of tiger themed rooms.
He’s another person who always has a big smile
Probably because he just tunes out the people yelling at him
~~
Minghao: Housekeeping Supervisor
The man who really runs the housekeeping department
He keeps everyone in line, maintains the storage closets, lets Jeonghan know what they need to order, and trains new housekeepers
He was working at a totally different hotel when he met Jeonghan
Jeonghan was supposed to be on vacation, and staying at Minghao’s hotel.
The two happened to meet in the hall after Jeonghan overheard Minghao’s supervisor yelling at him for no reason
He offered Minghao a position then and there, which Minghao accepted.
Hao literally packed up everything and moved to their town.
Lived in the hotel for a while and everything
He didn’t want to be manager, specifically because he doesn’t want to have to attend the management meetings every week.
He can clean a room spotless in 30 minutes, and is very proud of this fact.
Don’t call his Housekeepers “maids” or “Cleaners”
He will not hesitate to correct at a guest about it
The amount of times Hoshi has had to physically restrain him in the laundry room so that he didn’t attack a guest is innumerable.
~~
Seungkwan: Second Shift Housekeeper
Seungkwan only works this shift because he’s still in school, and because Cheol thought it made sense to have someone on property around check in time.
He’d gone to the colleges job board and found Jeonghan’s flier
He figured they wouldn’t be able to work around his class schedule
Jeonghan, however, thought he was adorable and decided he needed him on the staff
Cheol agreed that a second shift of housekeeping made sense,
Partly because Jeonghan wasn’t really giving him a choice
Thus, Seungkwan was hired 4pm to midnight
He only sometimes has to clean rooms,
Mostly he just runs people things like towels or fresh sheets
And keeps the common areas clean.
If you can’t see him, you can almost always hear him,
His voice is always ringing through the halls to the point where Mingyu has debated advertising it.
On the chance that Housekeeping does have to stay later, he basically spends the whole time taking shit with Minghao until he leaves for the day.
He always brings extra food for Vernon and Jun, cause he knows they don’t feed themselves properly.
Were it not for him, those two would live on granola bars and take out.
Thoughts? Let me know in the comments. If you're interested in requesting something, whether for this universe or another, feel free to send me an ask. My inbox is always open.
Hey babes!!!! Dw you're writings are fantastic. Never feel pressured about making something good enough for us! always write what you love and we will support. lots of love!!
Thank you so much for telling me this, I really needed to hear it. I have so many projects in the works for you guys, and I'm editing and updating old stories as well, so thank you for sticking with me while I work things out. I know I've been in a slump for a while but I'm so happy that you're still here with me.
I've been thinking too much, as I sit staring at a blank word document, wishing it was filled with wonder once again. I used to spend hours just writing as though I had no time left, and too much to say.
How I miss those days.
I miss imagines and blurbs. I miss everything bringing me ideas that didn't need to become something bigger.
I miss you, dear readers. You who have followed me since the beginning, and those who have only joined my little book club. I feel so terrible that I can't inundate you with words the way I used to, that I haven't given you something new in so long.
I am still writing, that may never leave me, but nothing I have written feels good enough for you. I want to write you stories. I want to write angst that makes you cry, or fluff that makes you make strange noises so other people think you're having a stroke.
I'm sorry that I have been absent. I miss you dearly. I wish I could say that I have things queued up and ready for the world to see, but I don't want to lie to you.
I am still here, and I hope you are too. There will be more worlds for us to explore, more words for me to spill out to you, and more stories to tell, but I know not when.
My inbox is still open if you'd like to talk to me, or request something from me, or just want to send me a meme that you like (I also accept animal pics) Thank you all so much for still being here, and please take care of yourselves.
