* # 𝙲𝙻𝙾𝚂𝙴𝙳 𝚂𝚃𝙰𝚁𝚃𝙴𝚁 𝙵𝙾𝚁 ; joongi ( @lcvlettrs ) .ᐟ * # 𝙻𝙾𝙲𝙰𝚃𝙸𝙾𝙽﹔in the city somewhere, after wrapping up a villain incident .ᐟ
˖ ࣪ . ࿐ ♡ ˚ . 𝐖𝐇𝐄𝐍 𝐈𝐓 𝐀𝐋𝐋 𝐂𝐋𝐄𝐀𝐑𝐒 , haeju is practically vibrating with the leftover adrenaline. a stark contrast to the absolute picture of professional that is joongi. the mission was a success ( well, if you don't count the massive amounts of property damage ), but haeju is already bored. he drapes his entire body weight over joongi’s shoulders like an overgrown, incredibly lethal toddler, entirely ignoring any protests that may or may not be sent his way. ❝ aw, come on, joon-joon, ❞ he whines, dragging out the syllables just to see that familiar, delightful twitch in joongi’s jaw. he knows joongi hates nicknames - - which is exactly why it's his absolute favorite thing, to make random ones on the spot. ❝ don't give me that look. we saved the day! the bad guys are TIED UP, the civilians are FINE, and honestly? i looked totally amazing doing it. ❞ he delights in knowing he'll be bombarded with brand new edits of himself to whatever new song is trending later today . a bright, entirely unabashed grin stretches across his face as he tilts his head, invading joongi's personal space to peer directly into his exasperated eyes. ( he thinks joongi's permanent scowl is incredibly endearing, actually. ) ❝ you're so stiff, mr. gravity. you need to loosen up before you snap one of your precious, brittle, bones. let’s get barbecue! my treat!! ❞ it's not really an invitation, but he's sure joongi knows that by now. it's more demand if anything , and he adjusts his goggles over his head, making him look a little less like a bug eyed mad man. ❝ well, i'll be using your wallet, but it's my brilliant idea. ❞ he pokes a finger right into joongi’s cheek, utterly unfazed by the icy death glare he anticipates to be sent his way. it's their usual back and worth. their way of depicting affection. ❝ smile for me. we're about to eat!! ❞
quick haeju fc ideas :'((((
does anyone want a baby thread?? i want to do memes, but i gotta practice writing.

* # 𝙲𝙻𝙾𝚂𝙴𝙳 𝚂𝚃𝙰𝚁𝚃𝙴𝚁 𝙵𝙾𝚁 ; sebastian ( @lcvlettrs ) .ᐟ * # 𝙻𝙾𝙲𝙰𝚃𝙸𝙾𝙽﹔outside sophia's hotel.. 2 hours before press .ᐟ
the thing about sophia is--she doesn't start the chaos. she just walks into it looking like a headline. today, it's oversized sunglasses, a hoodie that probably costs more than most people's rent, and a smile that's just a little too bright for someone who definitely didn't sleep. the kind of smile that says i'm fine! and dares you to question it. "if you tell me to go back inside," she starts, not even looking at him, "i’m firing you. or worse!! i’ll cry in public and make it your fault." there's a moment of silence. then, finally, she glances over at sebastian. at times like this, she wonders if she's gotten used to her humor yet. "and don't do that thing where you don't react," she accuses, pointing at him like she’s already familiar enough with him to know what's coming. yet regardless of her best efforts, she can't crack him. no wonder her team hired him. "it’s creepy... you're like… a very tall, very judgmental wall."

don’t go out there.
pretty AND smart. we’re gonna get along just fine.
if you hurt her i’ll kill you!
what are you doing here?
you’re late. as usual.
you’re in this with me now, [ name ].
no one else is gonna save you.
why don’t you slip into something more comfy, huh? like a coma!
i’m gonna put you in the ground like it’s my job.
you’re following me?
i noticed you already ‘borrowed’ all of my whiskey.
you’re supposed to be normal - you’re supposed to be SAFE!
of all the things i’ve ever wanted to call you? you’re such a coward.
wanna know how batshit i am? nobody shoots my family but me.
you stupid, crazy bitch.
you’re really staying this time, aren’t you?
this is blackmail, you dick!
how DARE you!
you owe me dinner. i’ll settle for tacos!
it seems i have settled among a commune of artists.
how about smiling, huh? you ever do that?
well, i like attention. i always have.
you ain’t one of us.
i’ve been meaning to introduce myself, i’m [ name ].
when i see something i like, i don’t wanna wait.
good thing you’re not some guy, right, or this would be really, really awkward ...
you don’t have to be nice to everybody.
i would remember a face like yours.
i’m an excellent judge of character.
you’re so not my type.
darlin’, i’m everybody’s type.
the dead don’t get a vote.
pfft, rookie mistake.
god, that’s super weird — what’s going on?
you need to hide.
run ! i’ll hold them off.
i am sorry, [ name ], but it’s you or me.
you’re a good man! you’ve got a code!
you don’t wanna do this!
you have no idea what i want.
buy me a round, [ name ]? seems like you’re just my type.
we can’t all settle down with our high-school sweethearts.
welcome to team ‘shut up and do what he says’. sometimes, we get donuts.
you should be doing this. you were meant to.
deal with that ... or i will.
we didn’t trust each other ... and now look what i’ve done.
you do not know what i am.
you’re supposed to be a hero.
pull your head out of the past.
the hell took you so long?
this is what our victories might have to look like.
look, if you’re about to propose a threesome, i’m tired and i haven’t shaved my legs.
this just doesn’t make sense to me.
goddamn, it’s you.
the problem with this criminal thing, is it’s kinda fun.
i can’t live like this, not anymore
don’t get your hopes up, we don’t know what we’re gonna find.
it wasn’t my idea to do this.
this is the only way to sanctuary.
you just could never help yourself.
vengeance is hollow, [ name ]. it isn’t worth a thing.
you’re not a monster.
i need rules. a code. otherwise i’ll end up just like you.
stop kidding yourself, [ name ], you are exactly like me.
i sympathize with your predicament.
leave, if you want. go get ... dead.
only one death scares me, and it didn’t take.
ugh, ever heard of manscaping?
come on, he is just ... so beneath you.
what’s up, [ name ]? i never see you.
i’m the one with the vendetta, why are you gunning so hard?
we? there’s no ‘we’.
why should i help you?
you think an $8 bottle of pinot will make me listen?
i never liked you, you know.
am i in danger?
back then, you lived and died by what the seasons gave you.
shut up and help me.
can’t we just enjoy the moment for once?
[ name ], now is not a good time.
happiness is a myth.
would you like some company?
it’s gonna be a long night, might as well make it fun.
you’ve done your worst.
how many tiny pillows does one girl need?
hold on a second, i want to record this so i can replay it to you when you’re being a dick.
you being here is definitely not selling ‘normal’.
there’s been a change of plans, i need to go away for awhile.
this is supremely cryptic, even for you.
say ‘pomegranate’ if someone’s got a gun on you.
this doesn’t seem healthy, [ name ].
i don’t really care where we are, as long as we’re all together.
are you sure you’re okay?
don’t be cross, i’ve got wood.
your ass is like ... top shelf.
dude, you’re like a walking bumper sticker.
is this strip poker? i’m not shy...
this kind of wound won’t heal, i’m dead already.
you save your vendetta for another night.
you suck at your job.
don’t shoot me, [ name ].
honestly, [ name ], you’ve gotten so weird.
that is NOT sexy!
nobody keeps booze in here, [ name ].
i think somebody’s trying to scare you ... toy with you. why?!
you of all people should know better than to try and make me question my sanity.
what do you MEAN you killed a stripper?
in my experience, dynamite solves all manner of problems.
haven’t you read a romance novel lately? heroes always win.
oh, you want to be a hero?
wanna tell me what that was about?
that was really brave. stupid, but brave.
i have something i need to say.
i’m starting to think sanity’s overrated.
i understand if you hate me.
you’re always, ALWAYS lying.
we should get some breakfast, i could murder a stack of pancakes.
you should know by now, i’m not most people.
well, you learn something new every day.
hey, no, you’re okay. lay back.
[ name ], i need you to listen to me.
okay, [ name ], we’re in serious shit here.
park your daddy issues.
i’m not like you, [ name ]. i’m not brave.
what was the last thing you saw?
close your eyes, take a deep breath in.
look at who the cat dragged in.
cut the bullshit. i know who you are.
you use humor as a form of self - defense.
answer my questions without any more guff.
what is it with psycho’s and talking in the third person?
you’re not really in the position to do any bargaining, are you?
you do look like you can handle yourself.
you want my help? you need to earn it.
i guess [ name ] wants you alive for something.
we should make it look real.
you know how to make someone show you where something precious is hidden? set fire to their house. it’s the first thing they go for.
don’t be irrational, [ name ].
you served your purpose, and now you are released.
i’ve had a lot of names, but you can call me [ name ].
you weren’t leaving without me, were you?
never touch my stuff.
you’re the sickest puppy in the litter.
you were dead ... and now you are not.
oh, aren’t you the master of deception?
let’s not kid ourselves, you’re not going to survive this.
[ name ], i always hoped that i would have this pleasure.
if you stand for nothing, you are sure to fall.
you do what you do best, [ name ], you fight.
you’re just like me. you’re broken.
i’m not lonesome, i just prefer to hunt alone.
you have to let go sometime, [ name ].
you continue to disappoint me.
let me make it up to you.
i thought i’d feel different. i thought i’d look different.
you release the rage, you might find there’s nothing left.
woah, wow, this is not what i expected the cat to drag in.
for the first time in ages, i woke up and knew exactly what i needed to do.
you can try, but i dare you to cockblock the drive i woke up with this morning.
i’ll sleep when i’m dead.
you’re not alone, [ name ].
just once i want you to say it. that you care about me.
someone woke up on the wrong side of the bed.
why do i even get out of bed?
i lost you once, i won’t let that happen again.
[ name ], you are shakin’ like a leaf.
jesus, listen to me. maybe i am crazy.
i’m not sure this is the best idea.
you’re the one who told me i should blow off steam.
i’m not crazy, right? there’s something going on here.
you’re making fun of me ...
get in the car.
could everybody just stand still for one freakin’ minute?!
it’s gonna be okay.
i just screamed at you, you shouldn’t be nice to me.
we’re not dating.
i would never ask you to be someone you’re not.
yeah, sure, [ name ], whatever you want.
[ name ], what kind of a mess have you got yourself into now?
if you shoot, this all goes to shit.
your poker face is pitiful.
sorry, no speak evil.
who won’t you make a deal with, huh?
you can judge me all you want.
what do i care for some broken woman’s opinion of my character?
you can talk all you want. they’ll be your last words, anyways.
this whole time you’ve thought this was personal.
you shut your lying mouth.
what happened to being friends?
it’s not so easy to be brazen when the thing that you want, that scares you to death, is sitting right in front of you.
i scare you?
when i think about what i wanna do most in this world, it’s you.
jump in anytime, [ name ], because i really don’t know how to do this.
maybe you should make me.
i owe you a heap of thanks. and my life.
can i at least buy you a drink?
aw, [ name ], you really do care.
it’s worth dying to see the look on your face.
men are all the same. even the demonic ones.
[ name ], calm your tits. have a drink.
do me a goddamn favor and refrain from mentioning that name.
i think you would be very pretty in blue.
everybody knows... about us. the sex.
you tracked me?
what are you doing here, [ name ]?
if you’re keeping things from me, IMPORTANT things ...
don’t get all hard & forget that you’re human.
sun’s starting to go down, we should head back.
i feel a real connection with you, [ name ].
i do hate goodbyes.
look, we need you, okay?
can’t you at least try?
we can’t tell anyone. not until we know for sure.
i don’t want to be rude, but i don’t know any of you ... or what’s happening.
i don’t drink.
what kind of people give a kid a switchblade?
this is your home, [ name ].
how can you think this is funny?
i’ve been crazy, didn’t care for it.
i’ve been told i have character.
are you scared of me?
i need to start drinking less ... or much, much more.
how in the hell did you get this?
i lost control. i was angry at everything ... at everyone.
you promised to never tell anyone that.
it’s always been you and i.
it can be like it always was ... and different, too. in all the right ways.
you’re not alone anymore.
i think i got a little bit shot ...
i need you to tell me everything you know about [ name ].
i thought i was doing what you asked!
whatever you’ve got planned, i’m game.
now there’s a sight for sore eyes.
i don’t wanna hurt you.
why aren’t you more freaked out?
if there’s one thing i’ve learned this year, it’s that ‘good’ is a moving target.
what are you gonna do about it? tell on me?
who the hell are you?
you took it from me?
nobody’s getting hurt on my watch.
when are you gonna take responsibility for all that you’ve done?
i’m running out of goddamn time.
this isn’t over. i’m coming for you.
now you know how it feels when people take your things.
i know that you’re scared, so am i.
are you sure you’re up for this?
you might want to stand back.
you went wrong.
this one’s gonna hurt.
i’m ready for anything.

Do you know what Darth Vader looks like inside his suit? He's a skeleton. Just like the rest of us. ( chooji ft. drunk chaos )
♡ Ꮺ MEMES — ACCEPTING ! ੭
more often than not, sooji feels like the roles are reversed in moments like this when it comes to them. because, how many times has she shown up to chaos like a loyal stray--hair smelling like smoke and sugar and way too many fruity drinks after a night out with friends? so, it only feels fair to return the favor now. besides, it isn’t foreign. they’ve done this before, long before labels, before they became what they are now.
so she slips into it easily, conversation flowing while his head rests in her lap. fingers carding through his hair, scratching at his scalp every now and then, mostly just to watch the way he reacts--amused by his nonsense, by how dramatic he gets about it. and she hums to herself, looking down at him like she's genuinely considering his statement, a smile tugging at the corner of her lips. a kind so soft she's glad no one else is around to see it.
"well, . . if we're talking, revenge of the sith," she starts off just to build the suspense. to make it sound like she's really pondering it, "i'd say he's giving more… mummy." maybe a little more toasted, but it’s the closest description she can land on. she's having fun playing along.
"but whatever you say, mr. jack skellington," she jokes, tugging her hand from his hair just long enough to pinch his cheek--light and teasing. "though i don’t know," she tilts her head, eyes flicking over his features, faux-serious. "i don't think you’re giving much skeleton either."
Come on, now. It's just a dance. Come on. ( shuyi & dain )
♡ Ꮺ MEMES — ACCEPTING ! ੭
in truth, it's not like dain has never danced before. in fact.., back in the borderlands, when he was still a kid with dirt under his nails, they'd dance in great sprawling circles under torch light --everyone linked together, stomping and spinning until someone's grandmother declared them all fools or he was merely to nauseous to keep going. but later in his life, dance in dain's life was found in tavern halls that smelled of smoke and spilled ale. it was there that dancing meant locking arms with whoever was nearest and careening around until the floor shook or someone landed on their ass.
it was all in good fun. it was all with the good spirit. be mess. be yourself.
but this? this is different.
here, where silk rustles against marble and every lord and lady moves like they're floating on strings, the steps are small and precise. they are delicate and meant to be a spectacle. yet for dain.. he's used to a sword in his hand, not a princess. his frame is built for taking hits and dealing them back, and for this occasion, it feels too large, too rough-edged for a waltz.
for that, he can practically hear the whispers already: look at the king's guard, lumbering about like a bear in a music box.
he's sure he'll look like a clown. so when shuyi asks him to dance, there's a flicker of something unfamiliar in his chest. not quite fear, dain;s not scared of much, but it's close enough. perhaps mortification is a better descriptor. because, would her parents see this as crossing a line? he's brash, sure, more bark than propriety on his best days, but he likes this job. he respects her family, serves them with everything he has. still, she's looking at him, waiting. so he takes a breath.
"i'd step on one of yer feet," dain jests, his tone dry but not unkind, "and then how will i look?" he shifts his weight, still slightly uncomfortable with the idea but not quite refusing. he can't refuse, she's the princess, after all. "i'll be completely off beat. you ought to dance with someone who can stay in tune with the music."
but even as he says it, there's no real protest in his voice. just the rough warmth of a man who'd follow her anywhere, even onto a dance floor where he's bound to make a fool of himself.
Can you stop fucking around and help me? ( sarang & haeju )
♡ Ꮺ MEMES — ACCEPTING ! ੭
haeju's eyebrow shoots up, and oh, he is eating this up. the shit-eating grin spreads across his face instantly, and he'd be snickering if he didn't have something better to say first. like the clown he is, he slaps a hand over his chest like he can't believe his ears. "OH?" the word comes out scandalized. "wait, hold on---" he cups his ear like his attempting to listen out for a hidden signal, tilting his head. "did i just hear something?"
despite the distance between them, he leans in slightly, eyes glinting with mischief. "is miss explosion murder actually asking me for help?" there's definitely going to be consequences for this later, but when has haeju ever cared? and his grin stretches wider. "i might." he pauses, savoring the moment. "if you say please."
You're my good-luck charm. Here we go. ( Clay & Soph; probably dragging her to the rodeo he can’t win without her !!! )
♡ Ꮺ MEMES — ACCEPTING ! ੭
sophia doesn't actually believe her presence alone is responsible for clay's winning streak -- she's not that delusional -- but that doesn't stop her grin from stretching ear to ear. because, thugh the thought is a little silly, it makes her happy nonetheless. and, from across the room, still tugging her boots into place, she flashes him an exaggerated thumbs up. a signal that she's ready-- that he's going to be great tonight. once her shoes are secured, the gesture turns into a tiny, overly formal salute as she finally pulls herself to her feet.
for someone who usually prefers climate controlled rooms and velvet ropes, the rodeo scene is… surprisingly growing on her. the more she goes, the more familiar the crowd feels -- less overwhelming, more endearing. or maybe she's just made a few unlikely friends along the way of bothering clay in her time filming in wyoming.
"let's get a'goin'," she chirps as she hurries to meet him at the door, slipping easily into clay's accent, playful and proud, all before she drops it, back to her usual voice and flashing him a look. "now you seriously CAN'T lose," sophia warns. "being a good luck charm is a lot of pressure, you know? and i take it very seriously."
You're not gonna find many good guys here. Be careful. [Kyumin & Sooji]
♡ Ꮺ MEMES — ACCEPTING ! ੭
sooji doesn't mean to be an asshole, but the laugh shoots out of her anyway-- loud, ugly, and with zero apology. like her body heard what kyumin said and reacted before her brain could file a formal complaint. because WOW. after the week she’s had? the month.. the year?! it feels like an insult. truly.
for that, she squints at him like he's grown a second head. and once the amusement dies down, its offense and judgement that sit boldly upon her features, head tilting like she’s buffering; deciding which to stick with
"uhhhh," she starts, making the ridiculous of all this be known before she even starts. "who said i was looking for guys??" as if. "or, y’know... anyone for that matter? "
she shakes her head like the concept taste bad in her mouth. romance? no, thanks. cancelled. expired. do not resuscitate. she already did the whole bleeding heart, all in, feelings-on-the-table thing with yeong, and look how that went. if she ever starts getting heart eyes again, she's drafting a legally binding document giving her friends permission to tackle her.. put her down, if necessary.
"i'm literally just here to have a good time," sooji declares, wiggling her brows like this should be extremely obvious and not at all a band aid over a gaping wound. she's still young. probably. young enough to still stay out too late, make questionable decisions, and call it personal growth.
"no need to worry," she says breezily, giving kyumin's shoulder a friendly pat as she slides past him.
Why is that funny? [Seb & Sophia]
♡ Ꮺ MEMES — ACCEPTING ! ੭
it's actually not that funny. sophia isn't entirely sure why she’s laughing --maybe she's just desensitized by now. fans getting too close, ending up places they very much shouldn't be, that's not exactly new territory for her. still, the laughter bubbles up anyway, sharp and a little hysterical, and for half a second she worries she might scare seb off. hes new. she probably shouldn't be laughing like this.
but then again, sophia's never really cared for hordes of security. even growing up, they'd always felt less like protection and more like glorified babysitters -- a way for her team to keep her on a shorter leash. so she lifts a hand, trying to rein it in, to smooth herself back into something resembling composure.
they're in the car now. safe. sound. thanks to him, technically.
"c'mon," she says, still fighting the grin, trying to settle into something more serious. "you've gotta admit-- before they got a little too close, the singing and dancing was kind of funny."
and it was. the effort alone deserved points. the serenade had been terrible, wildly off-key, but enthusiastic. younger sophia had dealt with much worse — strangers lunging, grabbing, following her home. this felt… almost harmless in comparison.
