“hmm… kim sangmi… a sweetheart? will do whatever you want if you add a little aegyo or let her pet your dogs? that mi? very kind soul. i see it in… in her heart whenever we’re together. i can’t believe she trusts new friends – not even friends, just people – so quickly. what’s that like?? i wouldn’t have trusted me so quickly. anyway. i’m sure mochi and mimi love having her around. and me too, i do too, i guess.”

“well, yeah, of course i know tae… i like tae! he still makes cool music from time to time, so i approached him about collaborating on something a while back… what a chill guy. a little bit… a little tsundere. i think it’s his brand, though. just assuming… like, just my two cents. but i really like writing with him. we’ve got a mutual passion for real music, i think. i don’t know. we’ve never had, like, a deep conversation. sorry, what was the question again? do you want a link to his soundcloud??”
。・:*:・゚☆ if there was anything that gigi hated with a passion, it was tardiness. from a young age her father made sure to knock any sorts of bad habits out of her before they even formed, and though she still isn’t the most prim and proper goddess around, she has her standards and she sticks to them. she’d rather be an hour early than ten minutes late, and now that it was bordering on twenty minutes since the time she was supposed to meet soobin at the bar, she could feel her skin crawling and her conscience shouting at her. the car barely even came to a rolling stop before she had the driver let her out, darting into the place in the most discreet manner that she could manage, as she oddly expected all eyes to turn on her and suddenly become aware of how late she was.
“god, i’m so sorry, hon. i’ve been trying to get out of this meeting for the last half hour– when i get my own radio show, be sure to kick me if i ever drone on and on like this man did.” she announced once she found her group member at the table, a sheepish smile worn on her face as she tried her hardest to not criticize herself out loud. as instinctual as it was, she knew there was no point in tearing herself down over something so minor– if she truly had to choose, she’d rather be late to go drinking than be late to a schedule. as she peeled her coat off and draped it around the chair she sat at, her eyes scanned across the area before a childish frown appeared. “i thought the whole point was for us to drink together, not me try and play catch-up to you! i’m not gonna be able to drink like this in ten years, let’s think about my poor liver for a minute!”
binnie’s gaze found gigi quickly and brightened almost instantly; with eyes drawn to her bandmate’s trademark fiery red locks. sitting up taller at the table and tapping her toes in excitement, she waved the bartender over to ask for just a few more drinks. the sight of her friend alone was enough to throw her out of the depths of the anxious slump she’d been in. “what? okay, sure, of course!” soobin exclaimed over the loud music with an enthusiastic nod, agreeing to kick gippeum if this theoretical radio show of hers went south.
grinning from ear to ear and throwing her arms around gigi as she sat down, she announced, “guess what? i’m never letting go,” at this point outwardly showing she was more than a little tipsy, and uncharacteristically giddy as a result.
“i’m sorry, unnie. i would have waited -- i just have so much to tell you... it’s been a long day. week. year!” fourteen days into the new year and going strong, she thought. binnie sighed and finally peeled herself off of gigi’s frame, legs swinging back and forth between the tall barstool she sat at and the counter she rested her elbows on. “what i’m gonna tell you has got to stay a secret, though, okay? i haven’t told anyone else. cross my heart and hope to die, stick a needle in my eye... all of that nonsense.”

“from sweetheart? oh, boy… sweetheart make me feel sooo old… i’m going to start crying. but she’s the cute one, right? pull up her instagram! show me a picture… oh, okay, they’re all cute. duh. what a shining star. no, i’ve never spoken to her, well - maybe once and i forgot… stop, did she draw that?!”
( send “slurred words” to hear my muse describe yours whilst ridiculously drunk. ) – @ikjaewon
“ugh, stop… i don’t wanna talk about this, we haven’t spoken in literal months and i have nothing new to say. do you want to know how i feel? how i felt? it’s literally all saved forever in any fansites’ archives, and do you know why? because it was fake! we were fake. i don’t even think the word genuine exists in his vocabulary. end of…” sigh. “i guess i’m not really all that angry. what’s the point of holding onto negative feelings, anyway?”
at just after nine in the morning, soobin had only barely dropped mimi and mochi off at their puppy daycare for the day ( a little later than she’d normally be doing so ) -- and as she was thanking the girl at the front desk and turning on her heel to go about her loosely-scheduled business for the day, she collided with a body behind her that she’d failed to notice beforehand, along with the two dogs that said someone was holding on a leash. “oh,” she squeaked, wide-eyed and startled. “i wasn’t looking, sorry.”
a quick glance upwards didn’t confirm much. the boy’s face was familiar, but not so much so that soobin could put a name to it, and so she returned her attention to his pets. “cute dogs,” she commented with a poised smile, fixing the strap of her bag upon her shoulder and shaking her bangs from her eyes. “anyway, sorry again.”
but an unsettling feeling washed over her as she looked up once more and realized, slowly but surely, exactly who it was this boy reminded her of; how he looked an unnerving amount like sungbin. her very dead, very gone brother. the realization glued her to where she stood, mind racing a mile a minute in alarm. the shock was gone from her face as quickly as it had appeared -- hiding her emotions was practically in her blood -- although the apprehension remained inside, merely slightly.

“um, i would be dead without her? wait, stop… that’s so cheesy. rewind. but i guess i’m not kidding, though. like, we had a rough start or whatever, but who hasn’t? and who else would put up with my shit whenever i need them to? no, hold on, i’m rephrasing that – who else has put up with me and my shitty, dramatic antics for the past ten years? wild. ridiculous. honestly, i literally can’t think of a single person i trust with my life more. like, i’d die for gigi. but don’t tell her any of this because… um… because, ew, gross, genuine feelings.”
( send “slurred words” to hear my muse describe yours whilst ridiculously drunk. ) – @ikjaehyun
“wah, jae… my diamond bias… he constantly looks like the sun is shining out of his ass. but, like, in a good way, though? like, i’ve never met a more outwardly smiley person in my life? and ever since the eye came out, i have spent so much time listening to those high notes of his – god, you know, i can’t stand it when he pretends he’s not as talented as we all know he is – um, anyway. i guess sometimes i worry about his health… but did you know! i’m almost as tall as him! and i can do cuter aegyo, too. we’ve had competitions judged by totally impartial judges. i mean… technically, we tied, but whatever.”
sat at the bar by herself, soobin checked her messages again for what felt like the thousandth time -- still nothing new. sure, she was a bit early, but she was dead certain they’d agreed to meet up here at this time right after she’d sent a frantically-worded text stating she was in desperate need of a night out, to talk and forget. and it wasn’t like gigi was one to flake on plans without a fair warning. grabbing her near-empty glass, binnie downed the rest of its contents in a burning swig, before leaning forward and resting her tired head in her hands. she’d appear soon enough.
hi hello and bonjour ! i’m laura and this is late as usual..... it’s my first time being a part of idol so i’m super excited n have tons of muse raring to go!! if you are interested in plotting with me and this tiny girl with a heart of steel, read on for some facts about lim soobin, angel of mine.
basic facts:
name/stagename: lim soobin / BinE
birthday/age: 921002 / 25 (born in jejudo!)
company/position: J-SOUL music’s visual/lead vocal/bassist of HEART2HEART.
height/weight: 167 cm / 51kg
sexuality: [insert avoidant meme]
interesting tidbits:
soobin’s older brother, sungbin, taught her how to play guitar when she was young, and that translated into a passion for writing and performing music in general.
her innocent looks and natural comfort in front of the camera have led to visual praise, acting gigs, and cf offers galore.
( an excellent liar. )
soobin’s a lead vocal of the group but her heart isn’t in most of the verses she performs, wishing she could write the words she means instead of the words given to her or the sentiments she’s pushed in the direction of presenting.
she has a talent and liking for languages, fluent in korean and english and proficient in japanese and mandarin.
story (tw for family suicide, anxiety):
she was one of the first trainees to be scouted by J-SOUL in its first year, but the six long years waiting for debut and the events that unfolded, nearly ending her career, are what she remembers most about that period of her life.
after four years of training, she gave her everything until the day she was told her brother – her courage, her spirit, her reason for getting up in the morning – was in the hospital after attempting to take his own life.
the year she spent away from J-SOUL recovering from her brother’s death was the most impactful of her life; and was the year her steel walls were built higher than ever. When HEART2HEART debuted in 2007 she was just 15 -- young, terrified, and still hurting.
nowadays, binnie does her best to stay out of scandals and presents the best version of herself she can to the world, but behind closed doors she’s no saint, being no stranger to secretive one-night stands in particular.
she picks and chooses who to trust, believing wholeheartedly in her judge of character and first impressions of a person.
tldr; she’s a soft cupcake under the traumatized exterior but she thinks she’s going to he’ll jkfghsk
specific plot ideas (copy+pasted from her current plot wishlist page!):
with: [ any J-SOUL trainee ]
- (your muse) reminds soobin of herself in her younger, naïve days as a trainee at j-soul. she tends to keep an eye out for (ym), checking on them as often as she can and always offering a listening ear or critical eye. half mentor/mentee, half sibling-esque relationship.
with: [ any actor ]
after working together as romantic leads in a short-lived drama, rumors swirled surrounding soobin and (your muse) – when the truth is that anything that may have looked like a relationship to outside onlookers was strictly a publicity ploy. maybe they were in love. and maybe (your muse) and soobin could barely stand to look at each other away from the prying eye of a camera… the public will never know.
and in general -- ex-flings, jealousy plots, acquaintances/connections, close friends to have movie night sleepovers with, unknown family, competitive enemies or motivators...
that’s just about everything ! if you like this post i will pop into those sweet dms :~) n we can plot established relationships or new ones where binnie is just warming up to the person !! either way im very excited to get to know you all !
