𝓷𝒂𝒕𝒉𝒂𝒏 𝓪𝒐𝒌𝒊 is sprinkling 𝓹𝒊𝒙𝒊𝒆 𝓭𝒖𝒔𝒕 across 𝓿𝒆𝒓𝒏𝒐𝒏 𝓫𝒚𝒆𝒐𝒏's pages
“ you're being stupid. ” and there's a voice in the back of his mind then, one that teeters suspiciously on the edge of demi kay's own, reminding him that there are a million better ways to open a conversation, but as he steps aside to drag vernon into his bedroom, he makes peace with that he doesn't care enough to find them. “ it's one night — 'm not letting you walk home in this shit. please just take the fucking bed. ”
∘ ˚ Ი𐑼 . ◟ “ you have a real way with words, you know that. ” the dryness of his voice doesn't quite bely the nerves stuck up under his skin. when he flicks a gaze towards the door, the storm doesn't seem to be any less horrific than it was when he checked three seconds ago. he absentmindedly adjusts the grip he has on his bag, sweaty palm slipping against the strap. another glance - another lack of change. “ ... i'm not taking your bed. i can take the couch. ” even if it does look like shit. who is he to judge when the alternative is the fucking storm.
“ it's always you. ” there's no heat behind kyungjun's tone, not this time, but his eyes are dull when they lift to rest on the man lingering in his doorway. “ i told him to mind his business. ” and it's no surprise, not really, that the command wouldn't stick — their teammates never have known how to keep their mouths shut, after all — but irritation creeps up his spine nonetheless, shoulders tensing with the pressure that daeyeon applies. “ ‘s nothing. just … sangwon being fuckin’ sangwon. 'm used to it — no charm required. ”
∘ ˚ Ი𐑼 . ◟ “ yeah, no, that's exactly how i would describe you right now. ” the amusement is light in his tone, but he's lacking both offense and remorse. he doesn't remove himself, either ⎯ better kyungjun snap at him than anyone else. “ not sure why you thought that'd do anything for you. you know he's a worrywart. he's probably sitting around biting his nails about this right now. ” only half - joking, mind you. he lets the moment glide, quiet and empty while the next words come to him. “ what'd he say to you this time ? ”
for what it's worth, yunseo shoulders don't jump with the sound of him, her body far too well acclimated to his presence to cower with fear any longer. “ you think everything i do is delusional, ” she calls back, soft despite the intrusion, casual despite the deep-seated distrust that still clings to her bones — idly, she decides that she trusts him not to care enough to pick up on the falsity that lies below. it takes her a moment to gather the courage to turn back to him, though her eyes surely linger the very moment they settle on his own gaze. “ i couldn't sleep. ” and it's not an explanation that she owes him, not by a mile — still, she flashes him a tired smile, head tipping towards the screens. “ i'm not exactly overflowing with other ways to pass the time, gyeongjun-ah. ”
∘ ˚ Ი𐑼 . ◟ he starts to tell her that's not my problem, but he's made it so. for better or worse, he's here. he's been here, and for a while there, the only thing separating her problems from his was the illusion of personhood in a place that stripped them of everything else. he doesn't drift closer, lest that thin veneer disappears, too. instead, he leans back against the wall, shoving his hands in his pockets. it's on his tongue to tell her that they're out now and this is exactly when they should be sleeping of their own volition, but he doubts yunseo, of all people, warrants the reminder. studies her instead, the malice that he's carried around since he was a teen watered down to something he can carry at this time of night. “ you got us out of the game, ” he reminds her. not that she needs that, either ⎯ but maybe she does. it doesn't feel like they're out of the game yet ; not when they're still on the weekend trip, the real one, huddling up together in the rec center until dawn breaks and the bus takes them the hell out of here. “ ... you tried getting through to jeongwon ? ” it's a long shot, even he knows that. jeongwon wasn't real in the first place, but the absence of her feels like a reality that doesn't fit quite right ⎯ even to him.
𓍯𓂃∘ ˚ daeyeon & kyungjun ( @fariytale )
∘ ˚ Ი𐑼 . ◟ “ hello, it is i, kim daeyeon. ” he tops it off with his prettiest smile, as if that at all negates how uninvited he is. he at least has the decency to nudge the door shut behind him. “ ei asked me to come and charm you into a better mood ... i'm guessing you and sangwon fought again ? ”
𓍯𓂃∘ ˚ gyeongjun & yunseo ( @fariytale )
∘ ˚ Ი𐑼 . ◟ he isn't hoping to find her, but he's ultimately less than surprised to. junhee wouldn't have kindly pointed him in this direction if he wasn't hoping for some divine intervention ⸻ why the fuck he can't talk to his own girlfriend ( or whatever they are ) is far and beyond gyeongjun's pay grade. he stands in the doorway of the office, eyes settled on silhouette he can barely make out behind the curve of the computer chair ⎯ takes him a long second to tear his eyes away. he works his jaw a bit, caught stiff between walking right back out and addressing the problem while he's here. ... fuck it. “ if you think staring at those monitors is gonna change anything, you're delusional. go to bed. ”
the night before 𝓯𝓪𝓵𝓵𝓲𝓷𝓰 ˚₊·—̳͟͞⋆˙⟡. november 29, 2025
it's the weight of an arm around his shoulders that forces diego into relaxing, his body damn near melting into the warmth of hanbin's side as a soft laugh tumbles from between his lips. “ no, it doesn't, ” he murmurs, hand lifting to meet the one that dangles over his chest. it's second nature to slide his fingers in between hanbin's, their palms pressed together tightly. “ somebody had to have cut some sort of deal with, like — every devil variant out there about her being the cutest thing in the afterlife. there's no way it's all natural. ” except, he supposes, if there was anybody in this world, alive or otherwise, who was built to be angelically adorable in all walks of life, esmae bangura was certain to be it. fondness floods his chest with the thought, and he takes a moment to press further into hanbin as the warmth of it settles. it's only when hanbin draws up the question of cleo's existence that diego's head lifts once more, teeth sinking into his bottom lip as he shakes his head. “ you think i was going to be the one who reminded her of that ? ” he presses, nudging his elbow into the other's side. “ i'm not trying to die a second time, babe, i value my time with you too much to start over. ”
∘ ˚ Ი𐑼 . ◟ his palm feels warmer with diego's hand in it. feels like something has finally settled into itself and he's finally home in a way he didn't know that he wasn't before. he'd miss the gestalt of the other's response if he were capable of doing anything but tuning into his every word and movement. the pads of his fingers press into the hollow spaces between diego's knuckles, imprinting himself there. “ lucky us that we get to experience her cuteness. imagine if we had to suffer the afterlife without her ill - timed gossip and everlasting smile. ” it deserves to be said that there are only so many people who'd get this fond voice out of him : just esmae and the man sitting beside him. it's the latter that has him feeling lighter than air at the moment, his grin stretching irreverently and without reason. “ don't worry, hot stuff, i'd never let her kill you a second time. i'd throw leo at her first. he'd take much longer to kill than you would. that should buy us some time. ”
𓍯𓂃∘ ˚ chengyu & cleo ( @fariytale )
∘ ˚ Ი𐑼 . ◟ he very openly groans the second she opens her mouth ⎯ sue him, he's past the stage of being scared off by her moods. “ queenie, i swear if you start talking about your ex again, i'm going to kill myself a second time. ” a joke that he's careful not to make in esmae's presence, mind you. he even checks over his shoulder to make sure she's nowhere in the room before redirecting his eyes back to the other. in the blink of an eye, he's grinning, stepping forward to back her against the wall and capturing her lips for himself. “ it's a huge mood killer when you do that, you know that, right ? ” he asks in between chaste, teasing kisses.
to the surprise of absolutely no one, diego's smile only serves to grow in size the closer hanbin gets, his hand extending until the tips of his fingers brush against the softness of his palm. “ she looks excited about everything, ” he muses, taking care to trace stars into hanbin's skin. his gaze drops briefly to his mouth then, so close to his own that his head threatens to spin with the proximity, but he's saved with the landing of lips against the very cheek that burns from the touch. “ what is she ever on about ? ” and it's rhetorical, mostly, as the last three years that they've been lucky enough to spend with cleo have been filled with little less than constant drama on her end, but sue him, he can't help the fond laughter that bubbles up in his chest at the thought of her. “ her ex was here today — some alumni thing or whatever, she was pissed, kept going on and on about the shit he pulled in their relationship. i was a little scared i'd catch on fire if i looked at her for too long, you should've seen her. ”
∘ ˚ Ი𐑼 . ◟ he replaces the graze of his lips with the warmth of his palm cupping diego's cheek, thumb brushing against skin. it's always strange to touch someone like himself ; someone who walks in the past tense, their existence a short chapter in a closed book. the warmth is there, but half of the time, hanbin is convinced he's tricked himself into feeling it. “ mm, she does. and it never gets any less cute. ” he lingers for a little longer, thumb tasting flesh for another stolen moment before he removes his hand and falls into the seat beside him, arm sliding around his shoulders. he lifts a brow as diego recounts cleo's latest entry in her novel - length series of upsets. “ . . . she does know she's dead, right ? and well past the stage of him being her problem or the other way around ? has anyone told her ? ”
growing number of seemingly unrelated deaths at a boston univeristy has heads turning tonight as police issue statement on the latest missing student.
it's embarrassing, really, how quickly the smile prompted by the sound of hanbin's voice alone takes over his every feature, diego's eyes lifting away from the book in his lap to rest instead on the upwards turning of hanbin's own lips. “ divorcing you, ” he repeats, as though the very concept of such a thing is entirely ridiculous — sue him, he'd like to think that it is. “ haven't we been over this ? you can't keep listening to esmae, babe, none of the people in this place could handle me. ” none, of course, beyond the one who stands before him. his teeth sink into his bottom lip briefly as he sits with the thought of that, his fingertips tracing the spine of the book idly. “ cleo was pacing up and down the halls again — pretty sure i would've gone totally crazy watching her if i hadn't left. shouldn't you be, like, happy that i saved my sanity for you ? ”
∘ ˚ Ი𐑼 . ◟ irreverent smugness precedes any sort of speech. it's silly, what he needs comfort for, but there's a tension sinking from his shoulders with every step he takes towards the other. “ it's hard not to listen to her. she just looks so excited when she gossips. ” it comes with nothing but fondness towards the eldest spirit of the bunch. hanbin's yet to meet anyone who can hold disdain towards her and he'd like to have a word with anyone who could. he stops in front of diego's seat, perching a hand on the back of it and leaning down to draw their faces nearer. his mouth hovers above diego's with a wicked smile, as if he holds any true intention of kissing him, then redirects to kiss his cheek. “ i put my hide and seek skills to the test whenever i see cleo in general. i don't blame you in the least. what's she on about this time ? ”
𓍯𓂃∘ ˚ hanbin & diego ( @fariytale )
∘ ˚ Ი𐑼 . ◟ poking his head through the door reveals exactly what he expects and brings a grin to his lips. “ there you are, ” he announces, stuffing his hands into his pockets and striding closer. “ esmae almost had me convinced you'd found a lover when i wasn't looking. ” his tone does well to cover up how disgruntled he'd been at the rumors ⎯ and in retrospect, he doesn't know why he listened at all. esmae hasn't been clued into anything since the '90s. he comes to a stop in front of his ⎯ diego, rocking back on his hips. “ what, you hiding from me or something ? we getting divorced ? ”
