♖ comforting after a nightmare

Running into a God on any day of the week was usually cause for Hongbin to panic. Running into a morose down trodden looking God after a bad dream was outright madness, but Hongbin couldn’t think of a good reason to flee when he’d stumbled across the God of the Moon looking sad in the forest in the middle of the day. Gods of the night had daymares, it seemed.

His camera rested in his hands as he bit his lip and tried not to stare too much at the other man. Did Gods get sad? Hongbin wasn’t sure at all. Awkwardly, he came and sat beside the infinitely elder being, plucking up a dandelion puff by the stem.

“D-don’t worry.. um...” he’d thought he’d heard mention of a sister in there somewhere but family was still a new concept to Hongbin. Still, he wondered how he’d comfort Jimin if his newly found younger half brother had come to him. “E-everyday is, um, is a new beginning?” He had no idea what he was saying, but he blew gently at the dandelion puff, sending the stalks of seed dancing around the Moon God. “S-start again?”

♖ comforting after a nightmare

“How is this supposed to comfort me?” Hyuk’s voice sounded both wet and dry at the same time, his own sense of sarcasm fighting against the memories of the scary dream.“I don’t know, I-I saw it on, um, on a tv show once.” Hongbin was all but out of his depth when Hyuk showed up at his door looking for comfort from night terrors. Of course, he’d had them at some point, he had a feeling all demi-gods did. Still, Hongbin had never had… a lot of friends really and he didn’t have family… and he had no idea what he was doing.

Pressing his palms against Hyuk’s, Hongbin awkward leaned his head forward to rest against the other boy’s. No, he really had no idea how this was supposed to comfort him, but he hoped the weirdness was enough to combat anything else. “It’s, um, it’s gonna be, o-okay.”

♖ comforting after a nightmare

Hongbin smiled and gave the blonde boy’s hand a tug.

Comforting wasn’t really one of Hongbin’s strong suits, but the least he could do was try and take Hoshi’s mind off the awful dream he’d had. Keeping up a smile he pulled him along until the reached the fountain square of the shopping district.

“L-look, here, um, hold your hand out, like, like this.” Hongbin emptied some of the bird feed into Hoshi’s outstretched palm. “Now, just... um, just wait.”

It took little time at all for a flock of eager birds to come down and start eating from their hands. A soft smile of wonder crossed over Hongbin’s face as he hoped it would distract the other from his night time torments.

Hongbin sort of wished he could say this was the first time he’d cooked a simple meal for someone that his sense of survival told him he should flee from. But it wasn’t, and his sense of self preservation was as wishy washy as his willpower. So, it was with a slight shake to his hands (not all that different form his every day life really) that he scooted the plate of food across the table to the boy with eyes that seemed to run deeper than seemed possible.“Um... it’s um... it’s not much...”For a moment they both just stared at the modest plate of cutely cut fruit and vegetables. Hongbin became increasingly more unnerved as the stare off continued, biting into his lip before reaching out to pick a piece of celery up. “It-it’s good, I mean, um, I mean there’s nothing, nothing wrong with it.” He made a show of eating a piece just to prove it wasn’t anything malicious.“So-sorry... I don’t have, uh, have much else to offer.” In more ways than one, he thought bitterly. It was hardly a meal, and what had made him think that it would be well received. Awkwardly, he glanced into his lap, worrying his lip, completely missing the quick reach from the other boy as he slipped a bit of apple between his lips.

♡ hugging

“Tah da!”Hongbin’s spine stiffened as he looked down to see two small arms wrapped around his waist, a pretty little box with a ribbon tied around it was clasped in their hands. Heat ran up his cheeks as he realized that there was most definitely someone hugging him from behind.

“Special delivery from the bakery.”Seeing no other option, he reached down to take the sweet box and the hands withdrew. Turning, he offered a nervous smile to the girl. “Um.... I-I don’t know if, um, if I was supposed to-to get this...” He couldn’t recall making an order from anywhere. He’d hate to accidentally have made off with someone else’s treat.

“Special promotion, come visit us soon!”

And with that she was off, a basket of similarly ribboned boxes hanging from her arm.

☺ my muse helping your muse fall asleep

Sometimes Hongbin just needed a friend. Someone to be around. He didn’t need to say much or do much, but being him got to be too much. It was easier to get his mind to quiet down and stop whispering words of doubt in his ears when there was a person who he cared about around.

Castle’s voice and guitar carried through the air, a soft tune that had the corners of Hongbin’s lips tipping up. It was so relaxing just being there, listening to the melodic voice while his eyes started to droop. Safe and sound and with a friend.

♝ holding hands

The sweet smile he sent to her was completely genuine in affection. Reaching out he, took her outstretched hand and lined up his steps with hers, careful to keep his stride comfortable to her. Kyungri had alerted him that It was taco night with a hastily crumpled note and it was perfect timing all around. They’d make a small mess as they did, enjoy some tacos and then curl up on the couch to watch what he was almost certain were a marathon of sweet romantic movies placed on the docket.

Linking their fingers, he appreciated the easy silence that always seemed to fill the space between them. Smiles were all that was needed to let each other know that they were friends.

✍ my muse teaching your muse

“I-I should wh-what??!”The other boy had somehow taken it upon himself to instruct Hongbin in the way of getting better tips. He hadn’t asked for the lesson, and he was pretty sure he wasn’t suited for it either. But that didn’t stop Jinyoung from taking him aside on the slow day at the coffee shop to teach him ‘fool proof and guaranteed’ techniques.Hongbin was fairly certain that ‘licking his lips seductively’ was not morally sure and/or remotely going to work. It was more like “how to accidentally start a fight at the club” to Hongbin’s mind but obediently mirror’d the gesture back, receiving a ‘it’ll do’ in return.He was pretty sure it wasn’t going to do. Ever.

Do you think Hongbin would like women?

Yes? I’m pretty sure he’s into everyone. Aphrodite’s kids usually don’t have a preference.

[mpxhongbin-blog]

“I um.... I guess I don’t have a preference... if I um... I had to pick? Wh-why??”

[arcadiaxgossip]

It's okay Hongbin, I secretly love you

I don’t think Hyuk will appreciate seeing this.

[mpxhongbin-blog]

“Oh... um...” He blushed and grinned some, dimples popping out shyly, “thank you?”

[mpxhongbin-blog]

Grabbing her marker, she leaned over and drew a heart on the back of his hand. Admiring it for a second, she smiled at him and leaned up to press a friendly kiss on his cheek. Having wrote a note for him, she crumbled it up in a ball and slipped it in his hand before waving at him goodbye and skipping away. Note: My cutest friend! Taco night at my place this week, okay?! <3

Hongbin glanced down at the marker heart, grinning at its cuteness. A light blush tinged his cheeks as his friend pressed an innocent kiss to his cheek. Kyungri was always so sweet and knew how to make him feel at ease. He waved to her with the crumpled note still in hand as she left before opening it.

Taco and a movie night sounded just perfect. He could use the pick me up. In the end, he was fortunate to have such good friends even if he could never understand how it happened.

Fun & Games // Hongbin & Han

arcadiaxhan

Hongbin had one goal.

Whatever dumb bets he and Han were going to make that day, he was going to win at least one of them. Smirking to himself, he glanced inside his overnight pack. Game controller, change of clothes, snacks that he would bring to the table, and a box of bleach and hair dye. They’d see what was what this time! And if Han tried that pillow trick again, Hongbin was just going to sit on him and steal his controller until he’d crossed the finish line.

Desperate times called for desperate measures after all. Makoto would be on his side, he was almost sure. Besides, Han would look cute with pink hair. Hyung or not, he was going down at least once. And Hongbin was sure there would be some equally ridiculous bet coming from his friend too.

Regardless of who actually won, it was at least going to be fun, of that he was sure.

Knocking on the elder’s door, Hongbin couldn’t help but smile. Lu Han was someone that he’d found he could be truly comfortable with. It was strange, and for a while he’d questioned why it was. But it was hard to put a finger on. Maybe it was because the outlandishness of his friend was so overwhelming it somehow overrode Hongbin’s immense sense of shame. Or maybe they just fit as friends. It was hard to tell.

None of that mattered. All that mattered was the very serious bout of Mario Kart that was about to go down.

Do (not) mix with alcohol // Hongbin & Jongin

arcadiajongin

There always seemed to be something new to explore in Arcadia. Even right outside his apartment complex in Olympus, there were wonderful gardens and ponds modeled after the pantheon that birthed him. More often than not Hongbin tended to take a stroll around Olympus as the sun was setting, usually with camera in hand, if he didn’t have other plans. But sometimes he just liked walking. If he happened to avoid the most heavily populated footpaths then it was probably just a coincidence.

Coincidence by design.

Even without his regular camera, Hongbin couldn’t help but get his phone out to take some pictures of the setting sun framed by the tall building frames. Jogging ahead a bit, he passed under an arbor decorate with gentle white blossoms that looked almost peachy in the dying light. Framing up the next shot, he stepped back a few more paces to line up the shot and nearly jumped out of his skin when he realized someone was already in the little garden alcove.

“Ah! S-sorry!” Hongbin stammered realizing he’d nearly run into the other man. “I-I wasn’t paying attention…” Shuffling his feet, he bowed briefly hoping that he hadn’t disturbed the other man’s evening too much. There was almost no one ever out in this part of the gardens that Hongbin had seen but that was no excuse for not paying attention. “I’ll um… I’ll just, just go…” he finished lamely.
