pharita immediately returned the bow, hands clasped neatly in front of her as a bright smile spread across her features.
"hello! it's really nice to meet you too," she replied softly, her voice gentle but sincere. "i'm looking forward to working with you today."
her gaze briefly shifted toward the bustling staff moving around the set before returning to momo. the younger idol let out a small laugh, smoothing a loose strand of hair behind her ear.
"of course." pharita nodded and fell into step beside her. "although i should warn you," she lowered her voice slightly, as if sharing a secret. "i'm not sure how much help i'll be once the cooking starts." a sheepish smile tugged at her lips. "i'll do my best not to accidentally ruin our dish. are you any good in cooking?"
Momo smiles and laughs, shaking her head. "Actually, I'm not that great at cooking either. Rather chaotic, if I'm honestly." She admits, a slightly guilty when she admits and realises that they will probably do terribly with their dish. "I'll do my best to make sure that it's edible which is... somewhat the purpose of it all, right?"
She looks at the ingredients laid out on the counter, humming to herself in thought before her attention is grabbed by the hosts.
There's a influx of information coming in, talking about what they'll be making, how the hosts will randomly ask questions and each time they answer correctly, they'll win new ingredients to add to their dish. Momo tries to take it all in, looking over at Pharita to see if she's doing well but there's a feeling of relief when they mention that the dish is just kimbap. Basic, simple, easy to make kimbap.
"There's no way we can mess this up." Momo whispers to the younger woman as the host makes some kind of joke about how even children know how to make this.
momo: my beautiful girl
momo: remember how we planned to go on a date?
momo: well, how about i take you out for dinner? celebrate your comeback and we go for a walk along han river after?~
momo: it works perfectly for me.
momo: now, let me be a gentlewoman and tell you that i'll be picking you up, hm?
momo: i don't need to tell you to wear something pretty... you do that naturally as it is~
momo: my beautiful girl
momo: remember how we planned to go on a date?
momo: well, how about i take you out for dinner? celebrate your comeback and we go for a walk along han river after?~
In between busy schedules, one thing that Momo loves to do is variety shows. Even if it's still a schedule, even if it's something that she needs to be 'on' for — she loves being able to have fun with some of the different shows.
This one in particular is a cooking show where different idols are teamed up to make something in the allotted time while answering questions. A game of chaos. A game of fun. A game Momo couldn't wait to participate in.
As she enters the set, Momo is introduced to her team member — Pharita. With a sweet smile, the older woman bows and greets her dongsaeng, remembering seeing a few of the younger girl groups dance challenges circling when they had their last comeback. "Hello, nice to meet you!"
"Everyone! Get ready!" The director and crew begin to scurry around, getting cameras checked and making sure they are ready and in position.
"Shall we go to our station?" The woman spins on her heel, excited to get started.
✦ single [interested in @yuuuqiii] 「 still in developing stage 」
momo has never been with a woman before and there's something about yuqi that has her willing to go over that 'kisses for fun' line and do something a little more... risque. she enjoys yuqi's company and finds herself always gravitating towards the woman.

✦ @saaanaaabby 「 hime/princess 」
loves to go out and have so much fun with sana and will always help her get home after. with all the restrictions that idol life has, momo is always so happy to have sana there to go through it all with her. she knows that she's always there for sleepovers, gossip and getting out. momo is also very protective over sana and will judge any man who dares go near her.
── THE LOVES
✦ @songballs 「 mingi-chan 」
her sweet mingi can basically do no wrong in her eyes. friends deserve kisses and mingi usually gets them a lot especially when they are on the dance floor having fun. while they are nothing more than friends, momo is still very caring and listens to mingi a lot whenever he's going through problems. while not always forthcoming with her own, she opens up to him when a few drinks are in her. now that mingi is married, he gets no kisses but a lot of hugs and head pats.
── THE JYPE FAMILY
✦ @hwngycji 「 princess 」
if hyunjin is the prince, yeji is the princess. momo adores her itzy little sister and will always be vocal about her support whenever it comes to her music or any activities that the woman does. always sending her congrats or dancing to her music and joining in on trends, momo is always there for her.
✦ @gnhabsirhc 「 mine 」
✦ @hyungjin 「 jinnie 」
her sweet stray kids. literally could never do any wrong and will always baby them as much. certainly stands up for them in any situation. even despite their moment of passion, momo still cares and looks out for hyunjin and took what happened as something fun rather than something deep.
✦ @sunshineboylix 「 lixie 」
her sweet stray kids. literally could never do any wrong and will always baby them as much. certainly stands up for them in any situation. even though he's dating someone momo used to, she doesn't bring it up or even acknowledge it out of respect for the aussie kid.
✦ @bbybreadin 「 innie 」
her sweet stray kids. literally could never do any wrong and will always baby them as much. certainly stands up for them in any situation.
── KNIVES IN THE BACK
✦ @qveenminn 「 petty rivalry 」
while momo doesn't hate her, they don't have the greatest interactions when it comes to their brand ambassadorship. it's usually tense between them and they only fake being nice for the cameras.
✦ @wonyum 「 eh 」
is it enemies if it's one sided? momo has no personal problems with wonyoung other than the on/off relationship with her sweet mingi. momo just carries on with her life as if wonyoung doesn't exist half the time. now that they are married, she... tries to be nice to wonyoung.

── FORMER FLAMES
✦ @letjeonkook 「 hook up. 2025 」
was never serious, was never meant to be. they hooked up a few times. the first couple was fun, something that made her feel alive... after that though? cool. has not spoken to him since.
✦ @/hyungjin 「 hook up. early 2026 」
momo has always admired the way hyunjin dances, finding him someone passionate about his skills. while he's only just on the hyung line of skz, momo used to treat her junior like she did with felix and jeongin. however, things had changed and there's something about him that's less kid and more man.
✦ @ycvnjun 「 hook up. early 2026 」
it was messy, it wasn't serious, it was everything momo shouldn't go for but enjoyed regardless. with the stress of being an idol, they both needed an outlet. she found that there's something about being with another dancer, especially one who could thrust his hips like he can — exciting.
✦ @choissoovins 「 past relationship. 2023 」
it was a short lived, sweet puppy love relationship. momo adored soobin but didn't love him the same way he loved her. what started as something sweet, soon shifted when she realised that they were both on different pages. there were no hard feelings on her end and when she saw that soobin had moved on, she was happy for him.

── PAST MOMENTS (dynamics with those who have left but are not forgotten)
✦ @jimiiiins 「 hook up. early 2026 」
it was something to take her mind off the busy, ever-moving, idol life. there were no strings, no stress, and no expectations which was exactly what momo liked.
✦ @tyongmoney 「 honey. past relationship. 2024 」
dated for a short while before taeyong enlisted. they separated on good terms and still remain friends to this day. maybe a little more happened, who will ever know. even after their break up, momo still stayed in contact with taeyong and wished him the best for his enlistment. now that he's back, looking better than ever, there was a spark between them but after a while, things settled into a friendship that is fun and flirty and easy. just how it should be.
✦ @whosthekingwhostheboss 「 suga baby 」
momo likes to tease yoongi a lot of the time, light flirtations, but mostly just her enjoying to push his buttons and get reactions from him. it's all in good fun and she does respect him but it's fun to get under his skin a little.
When Momo went out, she didn't think about where she was going or what she'd be doing. She never does, she has never had to. She goes out, she has fun, and that's all there is to it.
Tonight is no exception.
Wearing something that allows her to show off her body without looking too revealing, too slutty, Momo makes her way into her favourite club with a smile. "Two tequila shots, honey~." Momo says as she taps the bar, winking at the bartender before looking around the club with her back to the staff.
There's something in the air, she doesn't know what, but she knows tonight is going to be different.
There's something about the way he moves. Oh, there's something about the way he moves that has Momo smiling to herself as she makes her presence known. Not by approaching him, not by being loud and boisterous as she can be — but by being the centre of the dance floor.
The one who pulls everyone in, the one who has the crowd going, the one who you have to pay attention to because what if someone else does?
Momo is good at that, knowing how to use her talent to get what she wants — especially when she's wanting a distraction. That's why she's there after all. A distraction.
A smile spreads across her lips when she sees Yeonjun, sees him from afar but she can see the way he's looking for her. They did agree to meet here after all.
A place away from it all, somewhere neutral and unknown. Somewhere they could be whatever they wanted to be for the night without a care in the world.
Momo had called Yeonjun shortly after landing, needing a quick fix to the stress of the tour. Who else would she call at this late hour knowing they'd answer? "Yeonjunnie~" She calls to him so sweetly like there's something underneath that they haven't spoken about — all part of the game. "Waiting for me?~"
