bio
haneul "neo" song, born and raised in the city to by two engineers who wanted nothing more than for their only child to be just like them. they paid for best tutors, best private schools and all the certification classes a nerd like neo desired. and he loved it, until it got boring. he'd come home do his homework, his extra credit, his extra private lessons, and then he'd sit there in his room thinking, what if he made a robot that's only purpose is to shine a laser in your eye. and while he thought that was funny, he definitely didn't expect to wake up to over 20k views overnight. he only figured his few friends and some bots would see it! but making dumb robot videos, while useless it was entertaining enough, and he managed to gain a large following. it was all going well until he told his parent's he was going to drop out of college to pursue it.
his parent's didn't get it and of course, why would they, their son liked to make roombas that yelled every time they hit something, play laser tag where when he got shot, he got tased. it was stupid, and a waste of his potential. there was no way they'd ever encourage it. they were furious, confused and too stubborn to get that this made him happy. and while he knew he owed it to them, for giving him a foundation for everything he was, neil didn't care, and surprisingly youtube views converted into a decent amount of money and he was able to move out and start building bigger and dumber things.
no longer tied down to school work, his content of computer science turned absolutely goofy, made room for making games and play games. his viewership only went up and despite his strained relationship with his parents, it was worth it.
headcanons
i'm so unoriginal i want to say this man has done every manic machine michael reeves has ever made because i just think thats so funny
love the idea of his origins being a nerdy tech kid turned gamer bro
i'd say his content now is mostly gaming with a new manic machine video every 6 months
he has a warehouse in brooklyn he lives out of half the time and where he builds and stores all his "inventions"
his buff boy origin also mimics jake from the overwatch league who like retired at like what age 21-22 and now just streams overwatch casually but he's a buff boy now, he like retired from machines (but not really) and he just streams now and is a buff boy also, anyways.
personality wise he's a lot of fun, very silly, doesn't take much seriously, and a bit selfish in the sense that he's going to do what he wants to do always and he doesn't really care for the consequences
he is thoughtful when he wants to be but it's usually at random
he's observant and picks up on a lot of things but it doesn't mean he'll do anything with the information, it's not his business
his relationship with his parents is a sore spot and he does! get defensive!
opening up is hard and it's even harder when all he knows how to be is entertaining
loves anime, half of his music choices are probably anime OST's or like hatsune miku, and when he's chilling like 8-bit sonic music or like lofi beats yt lol
he loves sonic, has sonic tattoos
oh and also his gamer tag and name is 10/10 because of the matrix and because he's so big brained lmaO
wanted connections
would love a roommate or roommates, he wouldn't be around half the time but he need lives there for the social interaction he Needs lol and he's a snack fiend so 10/10 the reason the pantry is STOCKED [1/1]
down for him to have a stupid crush, stupid because he wouldn't know what to do [1/1]
also down for someone to have a crush on him and be frustrated with the fact that he is oblivious
childhood friends/college friends, knew him when his parents emotionally kicked him out/he dropped out of college
down to have him be the friend who's always there for them, he's solid like that, would cheer them up in the only ways he knows how (lamely/goofy)
love the idea of a best friend who knows him better than he knows himself, understands what his silence means, knows he's harboring things and most likely won't talk about any of it but they try to get him to anyway [1/1]
friends who r down to be apart of his robot tests, may cause harm but guaranteed to be Funny [1/?]
"i heard there are always shelters looking for socialization volunteers. of course, you'd probably have to do more than play with dogs -" eleanora shrugs; it had sounded like a good plan to her back in college, which is why the raven haired girl had spent more time decompressing with kittens and puppies biting at her fingers, than out at the clubs. on the unfortunate side, it made her very bad at knowing how to carry herself in such an environment. twirls a curl around her finger, head tilts to the side in consideration. "or you could adopt one, if you're so bummed about it. there are plenty of fur babies looking for a new home. unless ... he kicked you out for feeding a dog one of those sour green guys?"
"oh. i didn't know that. to be fair... i didn't do much research. it was either let me in or i trick him." he was really all or nothing with his creativity, "i was thinking of making a robot dog but doing that sounds better-ish. i do also kind of don't want to clean up after a dog but like i think i can get out of that." he turned to her, no longer glaring at the security guard. "no, no! i wouldn't do that! dogs can't eat candy, right? or is that just chocolate? either way. i'd never cause a dog harm like that. i want more of a dog uncle experience, all fun, no work, you know what i mean?"
“ now that's the spirit ! ” rio swished her finger in the air with a softer grin on her features . although the playful glint in their eyes hadn’t disappeared just yet . “ and to start our first day of freeing our inhibitions , why not have a drink ? on me ! ” a dainty hand waved their server over to their table , while the other grabbed the drink menu that was left on the table . “ what do you say , neo ? got some time to share a drink with me ? i’m kind of in the mood to throw my plans out the window . please tell me that you’ll say yes . ” however , they’d happily have a drink by themselves if neo refused them . if it meant a chance to play a little hooky from work for a few hours , then so be it . “ for natasha bedingfield ! ”
he laughs, feeding off of her energy, he can't hid his excitement. certain of the wild day in front of them, "oh hell yeah. let's start with something strong, go off with a bang. i like a long island iced tea but i feel like there's definitely more fun things out there." he takes the drink menu to browse for something fun, new and strong. he shakes his head, "of course! i was only planning on destroying a motorized scooter today for parts but that can wait. i'm always down for an unplanned adventure. especially for my girl, natasha!," he laughed.
“ chicken tenders and fries , grilled cheeses , and ... ” beau took a sip of his coffee . the bright notes of the beveraged filled his senses . and then – “ pasta ... pizza ! ” he turned his head rather quickly over to neo , eyes wide as the epiphany hit him . “ i can definitely make you a fancy - ish grilled cheese . but thoughts on pizza ? it’s been a while since i’ve made some and i can basically put whatever you want on it . personalized just for you . ” now that he thought about it , he could probably make him both . the grilled cheese first to hold him over while he made the pizza from scratch . a little snack before the real fun began . “ five year old palette or not . it was exactly what i needed . something fun and will be pretty good content too . the hardest part about it is probably making the crust . ”
he nodded, "oh yeah. i love pizza. i won't say no to free food, but especially, not pizza. i'm picky, but that's just an easy decision." he grinned, "i won't say no to both, either. it'd be fun to see what you can do with it. i'm a terrible cook so, watching you is half the fun. the other half is the fun is getting to eat it." he took a sip of his drink, "happy to help, i can help you film your content if you need me to. i don't usually do cooking vods but i don't think it'll be any different from when i felt my robot videos."
❝ should i cook something for us? ❞ dianna ponders, head turning to [ your muse ] for an answer. they flash the other a charming smile. ❝ it's been a while since i've had a good ol' homemade meal at home. what do you say — you down for some aglio olio? i promise it'll be better than last time. ❞
"only if you don't expect me to help with the cooking part. that's for your safety." he shrugs, if it weren't for his friends, neo's certain his diet would be a restaurants children's menu. "anythings better then the last time i cooked pasta and burned it. which i'm still not sure how it happened. the bars so low, you'd impress me without even needing to try."
“ did you lose my number, ultimate life form? ” she smiles innocently, head tilting once she has reached him at the gym's locker area, “ i’ve been waiting to yap with you. ” @neo5d
turning around abruptly, neo almost drops the weight he's holding, again. but luckily, he places it down as cool as he can, which really means awkwardly and slowly. "o-oh, uh. hi. it's you... and, uh, no, i didn't." he almost facepalms, realizing that probably makes it sounds worse than it is. he's just a loser, who's shy, and doesn't know how to text a girl. especially one that referred to him as the ultimate life form, shadow the hedgehog. he almost blushes. "but! i've been wanting to see you, you just weren't around. what uh, brings you back? or, i guess, stopped you from coming by?" he scratches at the back of his neck, "oh, and sorry.. about not texting. i-um. i'm not really great at most forms of communication."
“ i mean ... ” beau rubbed the back of his neck , somewhat understanding where neo was coming from . from his own experience , there were dog parks that allowed people in without a dog . he’s had his fair share of simply walking through the park , not necessarily approaching any dogs though . “ that security guard does look like they mean business ... or could just have one HELL of a resting face . if it's any consolation , i’m sure the lovely dog owners who go to other public parks would let you pet their dogs . or if you happen to pass one by on the way home ? ” he’s reminded of the tiktok user that goes around taking pictures of the dogs he encounters while out and about . “ and if i had a dog , you’d definitely get a ‘ feel free to take out on walks ’ pass to go to these dog parks . ”
neo would consider himself a regular of tompkin square park and with that title, he would say this security guard is a regular hindrance to his visits. "oh yeah no, we have beef. he won't even let me stand in the dog park. and i'm a cool guy. i'm not trying to kidnap a dog or anything. i'm just trying to make dog friends, and we've chatted about it before! i've tried being polite asking for entrance! and at this point, i think it's time to scheme." neo nods, appreciates beau's scenario, "see, yes, that! i need friends with dogs who will let me take them on walks. and i've thought about a dog walking job, but i don't want it to feel like work. and some dog owners aren't chill. so it's really just make one friend with one dog. and there has to be another solution."
ׅ ࣪𓏲ּ ֶָ ☁️ ❛ i knew i could count on you to be a genius. i'm all beauty, no brains. ❜ zyran's laugh echoes in the studio, though his staff seems too busy to laugh alongside him. in a suddent moment of devilish idea, his eyes gleam, glancing at neo with a bit too much joy in his smile. he's half proud of his suggestion, half oblivious to the possible outcome. ❛ wanna star in the mv? ❜ that's the voice of a man who is not used to anyone saying no to him. for better or worse.
"yes, you are pretty but, you're hecka smart. getting here means you know enough. and i'm not that smart. i'm just an idea guy. half of my ideas aren't even good most of the time, but i guess that's why people watch it." neo's a bit humble, knows he is smart in conventional means but he's surprised he's made it this far. mouth open, mid bite, he looks up to zyran, "what? me? you're joking right." he puts down his bag of chips. "what would i even do? you said it, you're the beauty. i'm brain. i don't even know how to dance or even sit there and look good. i'm got no skills besides think and make robot. your fans would be so confused!" he laughs a bit too, out of shock and disbelief. it's not that he's against it, he just doesn't get why zyran would want him for this. "i'm not even dressed for this." he looks down at his grey sweatpants and back at zyran in his stage ready outfit.
she'd almost forgotten how silly neo could be , his gripe with being dogless at a dog park pulling a loud laugh from aria's throat . " you know , i'm pretty sure there's very obvious and very simple solution to your problem , babe , " she uses neo's distraction with the security guard as a perfect cover to sneak her hand into his box of sour patch kids , stealing a few and popping one into her mouth . " you honestly probably should get a dog , then you'd have no other choice but to peel yourself away from valorant every once in a while and get some fresh air , " she turns her attention back to the groups of four-legged friends running around in their designated section of the park . " i'm actually planning on going to an adoption shelter sometime soon , i've been wanting a cat for forever and i think i just need to cave and get one . . . you should come , see if any of the animals speak to you . "
"yeah, of course, i have to make a robotic dog that is so realistic that a security guard can't stop me." he turns to her, realizing they were not thinking of the same thing, "what. i get fresh air. i'm here with you at a park, i go on walks all the time." he shakes his head in disbelief, pulling out his phone to checking the incense he started since they began sitting at the bench. just a pidgy, boo. "i'll go with you, but to get a real animal is just too much commitment. i love them and want to be around one most of the time but more of in an uncle way. if i don't make a dog, i need to find a friend who has a dog to spoil. but i could settle for a cat. i'll spoil yours. but you have to name it something good like garfield, and feed it lasagna," he laughs through his nose.

neo probably slept about 3 hours, and is running off the fumes of his last energy drink. he sits on the park bench housing a box of sour patch kids. watching the dogs run around in the dog park, and thinks, "i know there's a reason, us dogless humans aren't allowed in the dog park. like someone could steal a dog or cause harm or whatever. but there's got to be a way to get in there without a dog. and i think this figurative barrier, due to a valid rule, is really hindering my happiness. i could be playing fetch right now. petting a good boy! because he deserves it! and i can't because that man right there, knows i'm dogless." he points with a green sour patch kid and glares at a park security guard.
“ well if you’re asking me , i think it counts . i mean it’s brooklyn so technically part of the city ? and it really doesn’t have to be restricted to manhattan if it helps ! ” nonetheless , she makes a mental note of all the locations he’s mentioned . “ but i get it . parks are nice . i mean , just look at all this ! ” gestures towards the lake and the boathouse they’re in . “ we’re smack dab in the middle of the city but central park kind of makes me forget that i am sometimes . i heard there’s supposedly five waterfalls located in central park . somewhere in the ravine and loch ? have you been ? ”
"oh then, i also like the museum of science in queens, i went once on a field trip when i was like 10 and it still holds up. i went a few weeks ago. it's still like a playground regardless of what age you are. makes me feel like i'm in an episode of bill nye the science guy," he grins. neo definitely leans towards experiences that make him feel ageless, a very big life enjoyer even if he does spend most of his time isolated tinkering and gaming. he nods, smile on his lips as he looks around, he wouldn't have even know this was here, if it weren't for ana. "yeah, it's super nice. the weathers nice too. i think when i'm like 50 i could see myself living on a boat just drifting for a year." he took a sip of his drink, "what? no, i've never even seen a waterfall here! i thought central park was mostly flat," he laughs.

“ i'm kind of at a loss ... ” he looked over at [ your muse ] , handing their coffee to them with a small frown . “ i have a kind of free day coming up and i was thinking about posting a new cook with me reel ... but i have no clue what to cook . ” beau blew into the disposable cup , the fragrant notes from the brew filling his senses in hopes to spark some – ANYTHING . “ got any ideas ? no such thing as dumb ideas here , by the way . ”
"oh geez... beau," taking the coffee, with a small sip, "i am not the person you should be asking." he laughs, "i have the palette of like a five year old. i eat like.. chicken tenders and fries. i make grilled cheeses like 6 times a week." he may be fit, but he wasn't necessarily healthy by any means, he favorite foods are cheetos and fruit roll-ups and he always has candy on him, hell, he had a hi-chew in his pocket right now! he's a prime example of someone who was never taught how to eat well. "can you like, make a fancy version of a grilled cheese? does that even exist?"

“ YOU KNOW WHAT ? ” she started , waving her glass of iced water around gently as if it'd help conjure her thought faster . “ with the weather getting warmer ... i can just FEEL the bad decision making energy being summoned . ” are they the type to throw caution to the wind in the warmer seasons ? ABSOLUTELY . with passion , actually . “ will i stay vigilant ? turn down the a third round of gin and tonics ? for what ? i can already smell the misbehavior roaming around in the streets , and honestly ? ” rio leans in , she placed the glass back onto the table . a rather mischievous grin spreading across her lips as she looks up to [ your muse ] . “ i can't wait . i might just pull you into some trouble this spring . consider this your formal warning . ”
neo, the absolute enabler that he is, couldn't help the grin on his face from growing. "yes, absolutely. let it fuel you. as natasha bedingfield once said, free your inhibitions, feel the rain of your skin. absorb the energy and run free. eat whatever you want, drink as much as you want, buy everything your sweet heart desires. i personally, think that's always the right decision. we are simply beings." he chuckles, "yes, please. keep me involved. i have zero reservations, always, but especially during spring!"

“ i think i’ve achieved the impossible , ” wes said with a grin , arms spread to either side of him in a vague gesture of accomplishment . “ i managed to survive two failed muggings , the worst flu i’ve ever had in my life and only one of the couples getting married on love is blind , all to end up here ... on the anniversary of my birth ... again … ” it was honestly a feat , at this point , having been fully convinced he’d likely be pushing daisies before his twenty - fifth birthday . “ to celebrate , i’m thinking birthday shots … — nothing says ‘ LIFE ’ like enough vodka to kill a man . how many do you think i can get through before i’m really in danger ? i’ve got twenty - seven to get through , but if i space them out , i’m sure i’ll be fine . ”
"-wait, what?," he turns to wes, his straw still connected to his lip, before he burst out laughing. "bro, are you okay? that's like too many things. did you say you almost got mugged? twice? you've got to have like, terrible luck right now. we should like be doing good luck things to even it out." sipping his drink, neo, puts his hands out waving, "no, no, no. you can't just space them out you have to balance it out. we need to order like a fuck ton of food and like maybe, some water. oh wait, i should probably stay sober to like... take care of you incase it is actually too much, huh." neo wouldn't ever turn down the chance to get drunk and have fun, but if it's for wes's birthday, he supposes he'll be a good friend and make sure he's alive by the end of the night. it's the least he could do after neo has willingly put him in dangers way with all the prototypes he puts him through.

“ hey ! i have a question for you , ” ana starts , setting down her phone . she looks up and grins brightly at [ your muse ] . “ what are the top five spots you’d recommend in the city ? i love laduree in soho and all but i’m really trying to avoid being the person who lives in new york but only goes downtown . ”
"shoot," neo takes a sip of his drink through his straw. "i go like, nowhere. but uh, if i had to try and list...i love dumbo, but that's not really the city? so i guess like central park, i just like parks, laying in grass like once a month feels healthy.... um... skyscape, chelsea piers because of all the sports stuff, oh! and i used to love this place called flying tiger? they sold like knicknacks, but it closed. and... theres an arcade in chinatown that's cool. there's like a ton of regulars so it's like super homey."

“ nothing screams spring in new york like restaurants bringing out the outdoor patio furniture , ” ria comments to [ your muse ] as they walk past what is probably the fifth restaurant of the day with brightly colored outdoor furniture . “ especially when the weather hits seventy degrees . and is it me or is every restaurant throwing aperol spritzes on the seasonal menu ? ”
"wish they kept it out all the time. it's livelier. i don't think i'd see much people otherwise." neo was a huge homebody, if he wasn't at his apartment he was working in his warehouse, he never really went out unless someone dragged him. he sometimes forgets new york has good weather because of it. "i don't care for aperol. i'm simple, i like beer or a vodka redbull, but when they pull out the margaritas in the summer, i'm sold. like, that's fun," he grins.
" i am VERY ... sober right now , " she claims , nodding once , twice , while LOOKING at the various shelves in CONVENIENCE store , eyeing up the DIFFERENT shelves , precariously BALANCING hot cheetos , a BLUE GATORADE and several other snacks , including marshmallows , mac and cheese and PICKLES in their basket , before turning to [ your muse ] . " mmm ... but these would go good together . right ... ? right ? " and then a pause . " i don't even remember how to cook mac and cheese . it's doomed . i'm doomed . " ( @nepofmstarters ! )
haneul didn't believe her for a second but who was he as a fellow snack fiend, and while he was sober at the moment, he would say this is exactly what the doctor ordered after his second redbull of the day. he couldn't help the huge grin on his face as he looked down at the assortment in their basket. "no, not at all BUT they would if we had watermelon sour patch kids. honestly, any gummy. like a teddy bear gummy, or even PEACH RINGS." he was so excited. "what? no, we're fine. i can make mac and cheese. my machines can make mac and cheese, well maybe not, but i could probably make it at least try."
