â : What is something that causes them to question themself?
Mingyu begins questioning himself when others question him regarding his drastic change in overall attitude and personality (which is solely the reason as to why he holds such a deep animosity to such inquiries).
⟠: On a sleepless night, what would they be found doing?
Heâd probably take it as an opportunity to read or to be up all night on Netflix or something.
â â€
â : Storms or clear skies?
Storms.
†: Describe a physical action that shows complete trust. Â
A smile. Not the fabricated or false type that give off sarcastic signals which he typically offers, but rather one laced with sincerityâa complete and natural stretch of his lips that display a full set of healthy teeth (yes, including those absolutely adorable canines of his).
out of clemency.
HELLO, i'm sure most of my rp partners have noticed that i am a complete slug when it comes to replying/answering. i'd like to clarify that this is because i do try to invest all the effort i'm capable of into the things i write, and i want to display to each of you my absolute best. additionally, i do have both school and work, but i have made a personal decision to continue roleplaying because it's simply something i love to do and find enjoyment and release in.
with that said, i'm going to answer the things in my inbox and hopefully get to a few more replies as well. thank you all so much for your patience âĄ

The heavy rain knocked and thudded upon his window, mighty winds howling, demanding it be let in. The sky's original cerulean complexion vanished into a dull, dusty void of gray, and after gaping at the sight for a prolonged period of time, it seemed he might as well have forgotten the initial vividness of the dome bound around their earth. Though the "mysterious pizza lady" (to whom he now referred the individual on the other face of the screen as) was of complete unfamiliarity, he found himself idling about within the comfort of his apartment as his gaze shifted towards the droplets which began collecting upon the surface of the window and raced down towards the bottom rail when its burden became overly ponderous. Rainy day or not, he doubtlessly favored the luxury of being indoorsâand indeed, Mingyu would often become completely unproductive the minute he'd set foot in his apartment. Why he was so interested in this stranger was deemed uncertain, for truthfully, he didn't have anything to do (other than his conventional whereabouts such as lounging about on the couch while tending to his daily obligations of watching at least two episodes of his favorite seriesâan obsession he, in fact, hated to admit). Two minutes. Then five. Ding! His hand darted for the phone resting beside him as he brought the device within the range of his sight.
"Nyx," he reiterated (or so attempted to) out loud before scoffing lightly at the acknowledgment of her failure to properly input the number of the person she originally had planned on delivering the message to. He pursed his dry yet full lips as he paused in his actions for a brief moment of thoughtâzoning out almost. The name was rather unusual indeed, for it sounded much like nothing he'd ever heard in his eighteen years of living in South Korea. Nevertheless, he brought himself to type in a short reply, soon setting his phone in a spot beside him before adjusting the pillow placed beneath his head.
ă outgoing message ! ă ...well hi, i'm mingyu.
ă outgoing message ! ăwhenever you get your pizza please do send some over

 â â Her eyes were filled with joy as she held the box of cookies. Yes, she had taken the box away from him and no she wasnât going to give them back. she took out one cookie and began chewing on it as she waved it into his face with a playfully grin being placed onto her lips.â Pfft, no way.â  She made sure to keep her distance from him while making sure the cookies didnât fall over in her arms. she planned to eat them all and not give him even one.
"This piece of..." Mingyu could swear he saw his brains as he rolled his eyes, head tilting backwards to a degree as he runs his fingers through greyish locks. At the moment, he didn't seem to care enough to get up from the short wooden bench below him untilâ Crunch! The moment she laid her (in his eyes) filthy, unworthy hands upon the glorious epitome of purity and perfectionâand even brought it into the dark caverns of her mouthâsent him through some sensation of panic as he nearly jumped from where he was seated.
"Touch another cookie and it'll be the last cookie you'll ever touch with those hands again."
Perhaps he was being a bit too much. Noâhe was most definitely being a bit too much.

"Screwed you up? What, were you planning on coming to a conclusion whether or not you wanted to set the pen on the paper and actually write something?" Truthfully, the other's roundabouts were rather discernible, Mingyu catching on quite quickly to the changing tempo incorporated into the clicking of the pen between each pause. Being the unintentionally sarcastic asshole he is, he simply shrugs as he brings his gaze back down to his outline (which he would have finished by then if the male hadn't been constantly disrupting his thoughts), and Mingyu believed it was only fair that the individual should have a taste of his own medicine.
"Ever thought of tapping the pad of your finger against the table or something? Nevertheless, it would still be somewhat distracting, but it's an advancement."
I'm so glad to see you back!
âI could say Iâm glad to be back as well, but I didnât really go anywhere.â
swim meet âșâș mingyu & lukas
[ â jngluks ]
The scent of the chlorine, the sensation of puddles of water gathering around his feet: the two alone were enough to put his worries to ease. The very moment he had been anticipating since day one of his arduous, incessant training; the time that would determine whether his daily laborious endeavors proved to be beneficial, or if the time spent was consumed in vain. District finals. The event had finally arrived in the form, however, of a muggy, inflexible crowd packed at capacity into the seating area. It was not at all how he had imagined it. Exposed and depending solely on his sleek, skintight jammers to provide some portion of coverage, he attempted to form his way through the horde, becoming slightly disgruntled as his bronzed skin (almost seemingly glittering due to the vapors of the building's natural humidity coming to rest upon his flesh) develops a stickinessâone that only administers added difficulty in pursuing to efficiently slip through the mass. What he couldn't seem to understand was the fact at hand that the number of spectatorsâin comparison to last year's outcomeâhad seemed to nearly triple in size, and the lot was only growing by the minute. Alas, he had conveniently managed to press through the group, panting almost as the atmosphere resolved to a more open one, less congested and less of a pain.
Mingyu took the advantage to immediately make his way for the bottom level, expelling a long breath out of pure relief once he locates a wide, accessible area for him to remain in the meantime. His eyes came into focus with the changing digits of the large clock hung upon the wall parallel to where he was situated. To his uttermost disbelief, it had taken him nearly fifteen minutes to complete such a simple task such as maneuvering down towards the first level. He resided in silence for what seemed about five minutes, leaning forwards with forearms resting upon the cool and slightly moist surface of the silver metal barrier as he observed possible competition as they made use of their time granted to warm up before the meet actually commenced, strictly studying their form and moderately pointing out faults and potential developments to himself. Essentially torn from his previous state of absolute concentration, he stumbles from his standing as the slightly shorter individual comes into direct contact with his side; he's almost furious, irate bewilderment laced within his expression as he's unable to truly process the perception that one could amble directly into an unmoving figureâthat is, until his focus falls upon the other's phone merely seconds before it submerges beneath the water. Mingyu almost felt bad for the other, and though the male was someone he was completely unfamiliar with, perhaps that factor was an aspect taken to his convenience.
In spite of the individual's apology, he remained remarkably adamant as simply handing out forgiveness as if it were an obligation was something he strongly detested. His countenance softened to an extentâenough to at least allow his expression to return to it's previous being as he eyes a lifeguard run over to attempt to fish his phone out of the water. "Don't apologize."
"Are youâ is your phone gonna be okay? I mean, you got a warranty or something?"
RUDE (Ă çż Ă âŹ)
Highschool AU // Areum x Mingyu
[ â leexareum ]
His mother took her own life on the first day of winter break that year. He vividly recalls falling to his knees before her body, bitter tears streaming down his cheeks unceasingly as his brother called for the police; ice cold skin deprived of color, deprived of life. The remainder of his break was spent in anguish; emerging into a sea of feelings of utter betrayal. Who knew someone could change so greatly in the period of about a month?
And it only got worse along the years. If he got a dollar each time someone asked what had happened to himâwhat had happened cause him to transform into the monster he had become in such a short period of timeâhe could swear he'd have a couple hundreds.
Classes were overly repetitive. Seated all around him were loquacious bastards who couldn't keep their mouths shut for more than a minute; he can't seem to fathom the idea of how he's been able to restrain himself from starting a fight for so long. Certainly there were those he could tolerate. Those who had been with him since the beginning. Or the ones who fear him enough to hold their tongue. Truthfully, there was no valid reason as to why anyone should fear him. He was only a human after all. Then there were those who stood out. No, not those who dissipate their time in pleading for attention, but instead the ones who typically didn't speak. The eye of the storm among a mass of raucous adolescents. In his case, that was Lee Areum.
Groups were chosen at random, and he just so happened to be paired up with her. Because the projectâskit, ratherârequired practice (or so they were told), they were given 15 minutes in the beginning of the period for the rest of the week, and even Mingyu could admit that the given time wasn't enough to muster up a decent 10 minute minimum skit; not unless the two were to meet up some time after school or on the weekend. Nevertheless, he approaches the girl who was seemingly residing in her own little distant realm (not that her current presence was anything unlike her customary demeanor as of yet).
"My place on Saturday or Sunday?" If Mingyu were to describe himself at that particular moment, simply two words could prove sufficient: exceedingly straightforward.

â ( Ï ) â THATâS NOT what i heard last night. â
she said jokingly , of course she didnât heard anything last night since sheâs a heavy sleeper â a few minutes to fall asleep and then sheâs as hard as a rock , only a few things would wake her up. and she was teasing him though , even if he did snore or not , aerri didnât mind and itâs not like that was her actual problem. she smiled after seeing the boyâs reaction , keeping herself away from laughing out loud. â iâm just kidding â donât worry. i didnât hear anything last night because sleep was more important that hearing something..itâs ok even if you snore too , ya donât need to feel embarrassed about it. â
His mouth hung open for a while before he scoffed and displayed no further reaction to her teasing, certain that it would only benefit towards her own humor. Though quick to admit his faults, he holds deep contempt for being wrong. Hell, he didnât even know himself if he snored or notâin his eyes, it simply seemed like something unlikely of him to do, therefore he doesn't. He tugs a nearby pillow and encloses it within his arms, exasperation evident in his expression over such tiny matters. He slumps down further into the cushioning of the couch below the two and mutters against the pillowâs fabric as he grips and persists on his obstinacy.
âItâs not at all that Iâm embarrassed. Iâm just pretty sure I donât snore!â
