msuchangmin​: Boba Tea Twin

[] ... [] but they quickly move on, even ignoring the talk about saebom. “i do love making drinks. i have a small tea bar in my dorm room. i prefer green tea with florals. like rose tea. or lavender.” they supply, careful to explain away the reason for enjoying tea and how they might know about it.

Changmin felt the others gaze strong on him but it didn’t discourage him from facing them and having started the conversation, he was happy that he was finally getting more than just a few sentences out of them and he was determined to have them talk more. He always wanted them to get along, to become good friends, because they had such similar interests, but the other seemed to have such an aloof and cool facade about them that they didn’t come off as the most approachable. It still didn’t stop him from trying to speak whenever they were in club meetings, and of course as the co-president Sage would be too busy to talk, but he always tried nonetheless. “Oh, I wouldn’t think that working at a coffee shop would put you on the same level as a servant. I mean.. People don’t really have servants nowadays anyway! ... Right..?” He replied only to murmur a bit to himself after gaining a look from the other. He would admit that Sage was a bit intimidating, maybe it was their strong Russian accent and scary family history, but he always thought they were super interesting even if he felt a bit uneasy around them. Uneasy in a, “they’re probably an amazing amazing wizard and he has so much to learn from them, but they also scare him just a bit” kind of way. “You do!? That’s cool, so you must really like tea! And if you have your own little bar you must know a lot about it, or at least know how to make some. Did you learn yourself or did someone teach you?” He was interested in knowing if there were any special books Sage had read to gain this knowledge of tea, or perhaps someone he knew was a tea master and passed on what they knew to them, either way he wanted to know more.

studying is hard

✘ CLOSED STARTER — @msuchangmin​

[] ... []

“I’m just really not understanding how reading any of this is supposed to help me in a duel.”

Magic was always something that fascinated Changmin. Both his parents were great wizards, but with his mother being an Auror and the fact that they owned the bookstore in the village, Changmin had been reading books since before he could even walk. There wasn’t a moment in his life that he didn’t have a book in his hand, or at least in his bag in case there was even a second of free time that he could use to read another chapter or two. He found novels to be a cute little way to pass the time, but his great passion was reading book about magic all throughout history and trying to apply it to his own skills. He found that the way magic was described on pages was much more influential than seeing it done before him, there had to be much more effort taken to make sure someone understood exactly what the author meant given they only have words and paper to use. Anyone can watch someone do something and replicate it, but to read it is to truly understand the ins and outs of a spell or a potion and it’s this reason that he was only happy to help his friend Kevin. He understood that not everyone finds books as beneficial as he does, a lot of people are prefer seeing and doing rather than reading and trying it out themselves, but he knew enough about books that he was sure he could explain it in a way Kevin could understand.  “Well that’s because you’re reading the wrong book! You should be reading books by this author, and this one.. OH! And maybe this one..” Changmin had told him whenever he came by the store for some advice. He was rushing around the aisles, picking out volume after volume of books he thought would be better than the one he brought in, and he came back with a huge stack that made an echoing thud on the desk in the quiet shop.  “These authors have studied dueling for decades and they tried out most, if not all, of these techniques in here. This guy traveled all over the world to see how wizards from different countries dueled differently and it’s a really interesting read!” He began to open different books, flipping to specific chapters that he knew were relevant and pointing out different parts for his friend. You could tell just by the way he talked about this that he was so exicted to be sharing his knowledge with someone, he was truly geeking out over words written years ago and he looked to the other with bright eyes, hoping he was helping a little and not just overwhelming him.

[ ✉︎ → Genie✨💙 ] as always, your timing is impeccable! [ ✉︎ → Genie✨💙 ] i was just wishing that i had something to do— you really ARE a genie? [ ✉︎ → Genie✨💙 ] i’ll be there in a few!

It’d been quite some time since they’d last seen each other, but the two remained in consistent contact through owlet messages. Every now and then, they met up to study or just spend time with one another, and it was like they’d never been apart in the first place. In no time, she found herself in the school’s cafeteria, weaving excitedly through the crowd until she’d finally managed to catch sight of a familiar face.

“Changmin!”

Changmin was already heading toward their spot when his phone pinged with that personalized sound and his eyes quickly read over the message, grinning at her replies and finding his heart flutter a bit despite himself. They’d been best friends ever since she moved to their small village when her mom took up a shop in town, it was rare that other kids lived in the village itself so he was quick to go over there and attempt to make friends. It wasn’t hard at all for them to get along, just as it wasn’t hard for him to start falling for her. He’d never tell her of course, she had this way of making it quite clear she only saw him as a friend, and not in a mean way at all, but just in her innocent remarks and way she treated him. He’d never think of doing anything to jeopardize their friendship so he continued to be her best friend, continued to get lunch with her and send her nice text messages even if he wished they could be a little more. He had made it to the cafeteria before her and secured their usual table, he had a book open on the surface as he casually read through it to pass the short time he would be waiting, but mainly it was just an excuse to give himself something to do or else he’d simply be looking around for her like a lost puppy. When he heard her call his name his head shot up and a bright grin spread across his lips. “Malia!” He let out, his hand waving at her in an excited ushering motion as he stood up to greet and hug her. “I thought I’d wait for you to get food but now I see I probably should’ve saved us a spot in line, sorry!” He said to her, casting a regretful gaze over at the bustling room and the line of students getting their meal tickets that seemed to be growing by the second. “I hope you aren’t too hungry, we may be here a while.”

“hi, i’m selene. are you changmin?” she asks politely once she’s close enough to engage in conversation with the other. “he told me he would be here but i haven’t met him yet so i figured i should ask first.”

Changmin had tutored a lot of students in his day, despite his young age, and he found he was rather good at explaining most subjects in ways that seemed to be easy for others to understand. He would never say he knew more than a professor but.. Sometimes he would say he just knew how to say it, better. He started tutoring students his 5th year, mostly helping out others in his class or a few underclassman that were brought to him by teachers who knew he was Head Boy for a reason and wouldn’t mind the extra work. He never taught any upperclassman though, because teachers didn’t think it would be right for a 5th year to help out a 7th year even if he’d already read all the material and sat in on some of their classes, but he never cared. He simply loved to help out others and if it meant he got to read more about subjects he was already in or couldn’t get into yet then he was all for it. When he came to Mokseong he didn’t want his teaching skills to get rusty, he also thought it would be a nice way to meet people in this big school and his professors encouraged him to get some experience under his belt incase he wanted to become a TA later on. He knew that by posting his credentials and information on a bulletin board outside of class he could see any sort of student sitting across from him in the room he rented out for these sessions, and even though he’s tutored many students before, the thought of teaching an upperclassman both excited him and made him nervous. Changmin was sitting patiently at a designated table, looking down and reading over some materials he’d prepared for his first student as a last minute push to be ready for when she arrived. He’d told her when and where he’d be sitting, as well as what he would be wearing just so there wouldn’t be any confusion when she arrived. He had been so focused on making sure he brought enough notes and had the right books to lend her that he didn’t even notice her approach him until she spoke up. “Oh! Ah, hello!” He let out before standing quickly in an attempt to be polite as he greeted her. “Yes, I’m Changmin. You must be Selene.. Ah- I mean of course you are, you just said that...” He was beginning to ramble a bit and mutter nervously to himself but he seemed to reset himself as he held out a hand to pull out the chair nearest to her. “Um, why don’t you sit down and we can get started.” He offered, hoping that once they actually started talking about school work he’d feel less nervous and make less of a fool out of himself.

[msuchangmin]

I have a brother?

|| closed starter ☆ @msuxander​ ☆ || This was the moment, Changmin was finally going to confront this mystery man who’d been eluding him for days now, the mystery person who’s picture had been kept and thoughtfully hidden away in a charmed box in his father’s study. His father’s study! Who was this person? Why was there newspaper clippings of this person from childhood till now in a box that clearly was never meant to be seen by anyone but his father, why did they exist? Why were they secret? Who was this person? This.. Han Yoogeom. Why did he have his family name? Not that it wasn’t impossible for someone in the world to share the same family name as him, but to find a photo with a date and an age and that name written on the back in his father’s. STUDY. It was all too much of a “coincidence” for him, so he had to find out who he was. He’d searched all over school for him, asking around for a Han Yoogeom, age 24, but no one had heard of him, which he thought was crazy because here he was on this photo in his Mokseong Uniform at his graduation and the article that had come with it clearly stated he was attending grad school here. It wasn’t until he confronted his friend Sage’s aunt Forsythia that he got any sort of useful information. “Xander Maxwell?”  After a lot of back and forth about who he was and who he couldn’t possibly be, and how “you really shouldn’t talk to someone like him, he’s yada yada yada”, Changmin stopped listening once the conversation had nothing else that he wanted to hear and he was off to find out more about Xander Maxwell. He knew the Maxwell name well enough, he and his mother liked to keep up with all the influential wizarding families around the world, especially the dark ones. They were mom’s specialty when she worked as an Auror and he always found it fascinating to learn more about them, he always believed there was usually a deeper meaning or reason to why any of them did what they did, which might seem to be a bit naive, but it helped him keep an open mind and not just see them as evil monsters that should just be locked away forever. Of course some of them are bad enough that it should land them in prison, but he didn’t think everyone in a dark wizarding family were the same. Which is why he didn’t heed Forsythia’s warning and he kept digging for more info that could lead him to Xander. Finally, after days of planning and quality detective work, if he did say so himself, he’d figured out the perfect way to get close to “Xander” that would force him to talk to him. Changmin sat with his hands folded in his lap as he waited for his tutor to meet with him, now that the moment was actually here he found himself a bit nervous, his eyes continued to drop to the photo of a smiling graduate with people, who he could assume were his parents, patting him proudly on the shoulder and he wondered who he was beyond this sepia toned newspaper clipping. When he heard the door open his head shot up and he covered the photo with both hands, looking to the real version of it and offering a nervous smile. “H-hello! I’m sorry if I’m too early, I always like to be punctual to these sorts of things, especially on my first day.” He let out, trying to begin with pleasantries before he brought up the true reason for being here.

Lunch?

|| closed starter ☆ @msumalia​ ☆ || Changmin was just getting out of his last class and he had a break for lunch before his lessons in the afternoon, leaving his classroom and heading in the direction of the cafeteria like he did most days. He was walking along slowly, feeling a bit run down by the lack of fun and spontaneity in his schedule lately, same ole’ classes, same ole’ lunch room, same ole’ meal and then turning around to go right back to those same ole’ classes. He remembered he used to have a routine in the beginning of the semester but it was much better than what he did now, and the only difference was that he used to spend most of his days with Malia. They’d been really close friends ever since she moved to the small village he lived in, so when they started school at the same time it was nice to already know someone. They’d study together and eat most of their meals together up until they started getting more comfortable and actually making friends in their own houses and classes. They still saw each other in passing or in class but he’d realized that it had been quite a long time since the last time they had lunch together, so he decided it was about time that changed. [ owlet - To: Princess Jasmine♡ ] > Good afternoon Princess, I hope you are doing well. There is a small matter of business that I would like to discuss with you if you have the time.  > Haha! Malia! Hi > Do you have any plans for lunch? If you’re free, we should get together like old times! > Meet me at our usual table!

The elevator?

|| closed starter ☆ @msueunbi ☆ ||

Today was the day! He was finally starting his freshman year at Mokseong University, something he’d been waiting for all summer, but there was something else that made this day even more exciting. He’d finally be reunited with one of his dear friends, Eunbi, who was kind enough to be his escort and future tour guide when they got to campus. They’d been friends since before they could even walk and spent nearly all of their free time together as children, but it all stopped when she was enrolled in Hogwarts and promptly moved to London while he was left in Busan to go to one of the local schools. He of course got to see her during the summer, holidays and occasional breaks, but for more months out of the year they were thousands of miles apart. Now that Eunbi had been living in Korea again and attending Mokseong since last year, it was easier for him to spend some time with her whenever she had a break, but it was the first time they would be at the same school and Changmin was definitely excited. Even moreso now that he knew she would be waiting for him to help get him to the train for the first time. He arrived at the station promptly when he said he would, pushing a cart with all his luggage on it and moved quickly over to where they’d agreed to meet, which happened to be one of the many sets of elevators in the station. He’d heard of a secret way to get to the right platform though he wasn’t exactly sure how it worked, he’d heard rumors of how other schools around the world hid the ways into their schools from muggles, so the fact that he came to an elevator that many non magic using people were using confused him a bit. There had to be some way of getting it to work, or maybe it was just the easiest meeting place Eunbi could think of, but whatever the reason he was sure to find out soon, especially since he spotted her in the crowd. “Eunbi noona! Hi!” He let out cheerfully, smiling over to her and raising his arm in a gleeful wave that gave away just how much energy he had on such an exciting day. “I’m ready whenever you are!”

New Wand?

“See anything that catches your eye? Or are you here for anything specific?”

it was a bit unbelievable that a mokseong grad student had never been to aurora’s bookstore and quills… well, believe it baby, because forsythia had not once set foot in the place in her five years of attendance at the university. most of her required reading she imported overseas - she found it far easier to read in cyrillic than hangul, having been raised with more familiarity of the former - and she hadn’t broken her wand before. there simply was no need…

until one of her grad classes required a strange book that she couldn’t find in any catalogue - was it possible a whole country had it banned from reading lists? whatever the case, she was finally motivated by the mishap to come to aurora’s.

it was quite a lovely nook, crammed with wonders left and right. she had no trouble with keeping her attention, typically, but here she felt compelled to wander the aisles and look every which way. no one else occupied the shop; today, it was entirely her own.

hers and the little shopkeep, of course - he was quite cute, and she thought fondly that he reminded her somewhat of her nephew (without all of the hard mae edges, of course). his smile was infectious. she found herself returning it without a second thought, although hers was far more contained.

“hello… i was wondering if you had this book-”

she handed him a slip of paper with the name of her inquiry scrawled upon it.

“-somewhere in your shop? it is not able to buy anywhere back home. it has been a very frustrating thing.”

[msuchangmin]

Changmin always had a knack for pleasing customers, he knew how to make any grandmother who went shopping for their grandchild swoon over how polite and smart he was, he knew just how to act around normal patrons. He knew just what to say and how to say it, and he knew what little charms would impress them and he always had repeat clients so with this stranger before him he already felt a bit uneasy. Not to mention that he had practically zero experience with anyone this gorgeous, and the way she smiled back at him nearly knocked him off his feet. He watched her carefully as she perused the shop, noticing in time that any sane person would call that “staring” and might find it creepy, and he quickly busied himself with a random book on the counter. He was so caught up in pretending not to stare at her that he nearly leapt from his skin when she’d spoke without him even noticing her approach him, and as he looked up he offered her a half hearted chuckle.

“Y-you need a book? Let me see... um this..” He didn’t know where his voice had escaped to but he certainly was making a fool out of himself, and he was normally so good at first impressions. No! Never mind how he talked though, he was there to do a job and if she needed... Wait which book?

“I’m sorry, you need this book?” He asked as he turned the piece of paper toward her, as if she didn’t know what was on her own list, but he was sure she could’ve been mistaken on what was written on it, though that would be ridiculous since she brought this in specifically. Still, he’d never heard of the title even if the author seemed a little more familiar, but it wasn’t any book he’d ever seen a student need, at least not from their shop. Though, it could be tucked away somewhere, and if it was a book he didn’t know about he definitely needed to find it.

“Ah.. Hold on.”

His embarrassment before was quickly forgotten as he re-read the title she needed and began to search his shelves, murmuring to himself as he flicked his wand this way and that, bringing forward book after book, volume after volume, checking each cover for only a moment before clicking his tongue and sending them back to their places. It wasn’t until he went deep into one of their oldest sections that he finally found something, and he returned to the front with a triumphant smile.

“Here you are! I can’t believe I didn’t know it was here, I know everything in our inventory! Or well.. I guess I thought I did..” He cheerfully handed her the book as he jokingly berated himself, surprised to find this mystery book in the back and almost a little jealous to be giving it away. “That’ll be ....” He told her the price and asked if she needed anything else before ringing her up, listening to her politely but his eyes kept drifting down to the book.

“What class do you need this for?” He asked curiously.

Boba Tea Twin

|| closed starter ☆ @msusage· ☆ ||

“Do you have a job?” He asked again after getting the other’s attention, “I recently went to this boba shop looking for a part-time job, my mom though it’d be wise for me to have other work experience outside the bookstore.” He shrugged in a way that showed he was neither for, nor against the idea, but smiled a bit as he remembered what the point of his conversation was. “The girl working there was so nice, she gave me an application and everything and said I could come in for an interview later in the week. She was really pretty..” He said these words shyly, and it made his experience, or lack thereof, obvious. “I’m sure I’ll make a complete fool of myself at my interview, but hopefully I get the job.” He added, pressing his lips together with a small sigh at his predicament.

normally being asked about work doesn’t make them nervous. usually they shrug it away, say no, and move on. but because this time they know why changmin is questioning him, it does make him a little uneasy. just recently changmin had met saebom and asked about work. sage didn’t think changmin knew but it still makes them look over from their work. usually, being co-president they didn’t bother to take too much time to just talk about life in the club, but changmin was kind to them, and while cassius was moving onto the next thing, they turned to look at changmin fully. “no. i don’t need a job, changmin.” they say, russian accent thick, and eyes serious until— pretty? hm. it wasn’t that sage didn’t know they were pretty, but it was rare they actually got to hear compliments as if the person they were talking to wasn’t in front of them. besides, it was a bit silly thinking of changmin thinking of them as pretty for some reason. but it also makes them feel shy, they are a sucker for compliments after all. “if she was nice and you do your job well, i’m sure she will think you’re pretty too.” it’s the only thing he can think to say, and it’s not a very good response. so they move on quickly from that part of the sentence. “do you like tea a lot changmin? they’re probably looking for people with an interest in such things.” while sage definitely isn’t the one doing interviews for madam menagerie, they cant help but start casing the possible hire.

[msuchangmin]

Changmin was a bit surprised when he received the other’s full attention, he hadn’t said anything in any of the previous meetings that would reward him even a pity nod, so to see Sage turn themselves all the way to face him was a neat little development. He’d finally found a subject that worked, and it had seemed to be his worst attempt yet.

“Oh, you don’t? Why is that?” He asked, testing the waters in the hope that he could get the other to open up a bit more about their situation. He knew what family Sage came from obviously, he knew about most of the influential families around the world because his mother liked to keep up with them even though her days as an auror are behind her, but he had an interest in it so they would read up on the stories and updates together. He knew about their powerful but scary Russian family, but he’d like to hear about them from the source if he could. It was his way of playing detective.

“She might think I’m pretty?? Oh I doubt that..” He quickly shot down that possibility, there was no way he’d be on her level in the slightest and he wouldn’t even want to create any false hope for himself. “I do like tea, hot mostly but when I’m on the go I like having iced tea with the boba pearls. They’re such a nice little treat, it’s like a little surprise with every sip.” He said with a chuckle, finding what he said to be quite silly and he shook his head. “I mean, I am interested in it, is all. Are you? What sort of tea do you prefer?”

[msuchangmin]

New Wand?

|| closed starter ☆ @msuforsythia​ ☆ ||

“Hello! Welcome to Aurora’s Bookstore and Quills! Is there anything I can help you find?” 

The chime of the bell on the front door alerted Changmin to a customer entering the shop, even from the back he could see someone was inside and he quickly let the the stack of books in his hands put themselves away with a wave of his wand before rushing out to greet his customer. Despite starting school at Mokseong University and moving to the dorm there, he still took some weekends to return home and give his parents a break from the store, and he got all the books he needed for free so he did much of his studying whenever business is slow. This was the first customer they'd had all day, given that it was a Saturday and he assumed most people wouldn’t want to waste such a nice day running errands, and he had been using this down time to rearrange some sections, even though he was really just wasting time. So to say he was excited to have someone to finally talk to was a bit of an understatement.

He made his way to the front, coming up to stand behind the glass case that separated the two of them, glancing down at the small wand collection it housed. They were all imported so the selection was minimal due to the high demand and only mediocre supply, not many vendors wanted to send wands out to them because of the lack of customers for the area, so they worked with what they got. He returned his gaze to the beautiful stranger and offered her a bright smile.

“See anything that catches your eye? Or are you here for anything specific?”
