Hi everyone.I’m writing this to let you know that I am officially stepping away from this blog and the fandom community.
For a long time,I’ve struggled with Maladaptive Daydreaming.I would spend all my time in my head and creating stories that i eventually put out for you all to enjoy.While I love the stories we've shared here,this hobby has reached a point where it is negatively impacting my mental health and my ability to live my real life.It has become a source of significant anxiety,and for my own recovery, I need to close this chapter entirely.I will post chapter 2 as planned,I know i haven’t been on here long but i know you guys always looked forward to rina’s story.
Thank you for all the support,but I need to focus 100% on being present in the real world now.Goodbye,and take care.
Hey I was just wondering when the next lngshot chapter was going to be published for the switch
NO PRESSURE JUS WONDERING LIVE THE WORK

SYNOPSIS as your best friend, the thought of dating you barely even crossed keonho’s mind. so when given a simple dare to ask you out, he does so without much thought. to make things even better, you decide you might just take him up on that offer.
part 1 | part 2 | part 3
💬 .. bro thanks guys for liking my stupid lil post 🥹🥹🥹🥹 cuz i Lowk jus b clickin random shit on here💀if u wanna make any requests or wtv pls do🙏i just dont do ocs so🥲also couldnt get the pics for this together as soon as i hoped cuz i had to do my fuckass job app like TFfffff😂😂😂😂😂🍅🍅🍅🍅
I honestly find it fascinating and a little bit exhausting to watch certain writers on enhablr (or any kpop fandom at that) weaponize the term "parasocial" the second they encounter an opinion they don’t like.It’s become this ultimate "gotcha" word used to shut down discourse and make the other person feel delusional, but it’s hard to take that critique seriously when it’s coming from someone who writes explicit fanfictions about the same idols.
I’m saying this as a writer myself, so there’s truly no hate intended toward the craft, but we have to be honest about the irony here.Writing smut or deeply emotional "real person fiction" is,by definition,an incredibly parasocial activity.You are projecting complex narratives, desires, and personalities onto real people you do not know.
It’s fine to enjoy that, but acting like you’re on a higher moral or intellectual ground than someone with a "different opinion" is wild.To call someone else "too invested" while you’re spendings hours drafting smut scenarios involving these men is a classic call coming from inside the house babes.
At the end of the day, we’re all part of the same community.We all have some level of parasocial investment,that’s why we’re here.How about instead of using that label to act superior or silence people, maybe we should just admit we’re all in the same boat and stop the selective gatekeeping.
guys stop tell me why I was re reading ch 2 and and having the worst cringe attack ever,but i will NAWT be re writing it since i simply do not have the brain capacity to come up with something new 
Just a quick question what do you not take requests for?
hmmm,i mean I’m fine with most things but i’d like to stay away from full on smut,like make out is okay but like smut smut i’d rather not,atleast on this account

these type of shows are never that serious,
after all, they literally film idols and celebrities in their natural habitat, in their dorms, showing their daily life behind closed doors
it’s just one of those “follow the idol around” type things, but for some reason the public and fans absolutely love it
so here they are, in the newest episode of; “open doors: idol edition”
“welcome back!!” the host beamed, clapping, “today we have lngshot with us!” the host smiled, gesturing to the group
the members smiled, bowed, greeting politely while immediately slipping into their own chaos like always
woojin excitedly cheered, louis smiled as wide as ever and ohyul being the responsible leader he is, thanked every host for having them on the show
and ryul?
ryul stood there, hands in his hoodie pockets, looking calm as ever, a small smile on his face as he nodded along to ohyul’s words
“today,” the co-host continued, “we’ll be watching your daily dorm life! we’ll dive into some real, unedited footage, showing your life behind closed doors, giving your fans a glimpse into your routines!”
all of the members clapped excitedly, laughing as they were excited to see what they were going to show
“oh this is bad,” woojin sighed, smirking a little too wide for no reason
ryul scoffed softly, “why are you so excited,”
but woojin didn’t answer, he just look at him, grinning so much it was almost scary,
“…what did you do,” ryul narrowed his eyes, his gaze shifting to the camera before side eyeing woojin again
“nothing,” ohyul said, way too fast, “what did you do?” he grinned
the light dimmed slightly as the screen lit up,
lngshot’s dorm – 12:08 pm
the camera zoomed in on his door, before switching to the one in ryul’s room,
“he’s not even awake yet?” one host whispered dramatically,
“he was up till 5am,” ohyul exposed immediately,
“i was working on our music,” ryul defended
the screen showed him sprawled across the bed, his blanket half on the floor, and his phone somewhere under his pillow
“wow,” one host whispered, “such an idol,”
“he’s ugly when he sleeps,” louis laughed,
“you sleep talk, “ryul shot back,
“at least i don’t-“
“ok ok,” ohyul cut in, laughing, before the two could go any further in their bickering, “let’s watch,”
the camera moved around his room,
..and that’s when it started
the clip continued, showing his bed, all the clothes around his room, his desk, a mic in the corner,
all the usual, but then-
..his members noticed first,
“oh-“ ohyul said, trying, and failing, to hide his smile,
“ohhh,” woojin joined, grinning even wider than he already was,
the hosts blinked, looking between the two, “oh what?!”
“nothing,” the leader said, lips twitching, not very convincing
“why are you all reacting like that,” the main host asked, suspicious now,
“just… keep watching,” ohyul said, already looking at ryul,
ryul sighed, but didn’t quite understand what was happening (yet)
the camera zoomed in-
there was a bag on the chair,
but not just any bag.. a very clearly not-his bag, unless ryul was into ‘chloe paddington’ bags??
there was makeup on his desk,
a pink lipgloss, a cute small cinnamoroll hand mirror and blush in a tint that was definitely not ryul’s daily make up look
a hoodie draped over the back of his chair that was also definitely not his,
and then-
the plushie
not even subtle, it was pink, soft, adorable, and sitting right in the middle of his bed like it paid rent
the hosts gasped, “WAIT! PAUSE!”
the members started making noise immediately,
“GO BACK!” the host said,
the screen zoomed in again.
“is that… makeup?” one host asked,
“and that bag???” the other added,
and before they could say anything else, the members burst out laughing,
“hyung you’re actually so done,” woojin grinned, to which louis absolutely died of laughter,
“you guys are snitches,” ryul huffed under his breath,
“we said hide it,” ohyul whisper laughed
“i DID hide it,” ryul argued, “kind of,”
“that plushie is in the center of your bed,”
“it likes the spotlight,” ryul joked
and the studio absolutely lost it
“ryul!,” the host said, turning to him with wide eyes, “whose things are those?”
all the members turned too, but they were not as shocked as the hosts were,
no, they were excited!!!!
like they’d been waiting for this exact moment, like they’re just excited to see how ryul was going to save himself in this situation,
and ryul just looked at them, grinning a little by the look on their faces, before he looked back at the host,
“my girlfriend’s,” he said casually,
and the members immediately cheered,
“finally!!” woojin clapped his hands excitedly,
the hosts blinked, processing,
“wait- you all knew???”
“of course we knew,”ohyul said, “we’ve met her countless times,”
“she’s really cool,” louis added, his eyes quickly glancing at his hyung, a sweet smile on his face
“way too good for him,” woojin muttered,
“hey,” ryul scoffed,
the hosts were losing their minds, “how long has this been going on???”
“does the company know??”
“like a year and a half,” ryul said, casual as ever, “going onto two,”
“so before debut??”
“yeah,”
one host turned to the members, “and you just kept his secret???”
“of course, we’re loyal,” ohyul beamed happily,
“and louis’s scared of him,” woojin joked,
“i’m not scary,”
“you kinda are,” louis shoots back,
there’s laughter everywhere,
and the hosts are desperately trying to get their heads around what just happened,
“so she comes to the dorm??” the co-host asked, leaning forward, completely invested in all of this,
“she literally saved us during our debut season,” woojin nodded,
“you’re all using her for food???” ryul stared at them,
“she’s supportive and she feeds us,” louis smiled cheekily, “she’s like a big sister,”
ryul was shaking his head but couldn’t hide the proud smile on his face,
and the hosts were eating this up,
“ryul, are you not worried about revealing this?” one asked,
and again, he just shrugged, simple and honest,
“not really,” he said. “the company’s cool with it and i wasn’t gonna hide her forever anyways,”
his tone softened just a little, “she’s important to me, so i was gonna tell the fans at some point,”
the members went quiet for a second, smiling, but softer now, less teasing,
“aw,” woojin cooed, “he’s in love,”
“shut up,”
the second the episode aired, the internet exploded with comments, articles and videos
endless comments like;
“not the members exposing him😭😭😭”
“THEY WERE WAITING FOR THIS MOMENT”
“she brings them food!!!🥹🥹we gotta protect her”
“cmon guys just look at him, ofc he’s not single!!!”
big news outlets posted articles about the episode and the overall situation,
“rookie idol ryul from LNGSHOT reveals he’s in a relationship with non idol girlfriend for 1,5 years”
“LNGSHOT’s ryul reveals relationship in new episode of open doors: idols edition”
hashtags were trending and the fandom was eating it up like no other, the reactions were wild but overall super supportive and excited
later that night, he went live, not because he had to, but just because he wanted to,
he was chilling in his room, hoodie on, hair slightly damp, scrolling through the chaos of all the comments his fans were leaving in the chat,
he stared at the camera for a second, reading the chat as it flew by the speed of light,
“you guys are loud,” he said,
“the members snitched before you even realised yourself”
“WE LOVE HER”
“does she really bring food????”
he scoffed, clearly entertained, “they’re exaggerating,”
there’s a small pause as he reads through more comments,
“yeah she brings snacks,”
“OMGG WE LOVE HER MORE”
“PROTECT HER AT ALL COSTS!!!!”
he smiled a little at that,
“don’t be weird about it,” he said, “or they’ll get involved,” he joked
“THE MEMBERS WILL DEFEND HER???”
“yoo i just know she’s so loved by all of the members”
“100%,” he nodded, brushing a hand through his hair, “they like her more than me,”
“AS THEY SHOULD”
“imagine dating ryul and being besties with the rest🥹🥹”
his phone buzzed loudly and the immediate smile on his face made it very clear who was texting,
“OMGG LOOK AT HIS SMILE”
“not his gf texting him during live😭😭😭”
you: i bring snacks because you all eat like you’ve never seen food before
ryul: that’s not the point
you: it is actually
he looked at his phone, then back at the camera, trying not to laugh,
“she’s saying we always act like we haven’t eaten for years,” he translated, “when she brings snacks,” he added quickly,
“WE LOVE HER SASS”
“true tho 😭😭😭 you guys eat like crazy”
“yeah, yeah,” he muttered, “don’t hype her up too much,” he scoffed slightly
“JEALOUS???”
“oooo someone’s a little jellyyyyyy”
the comments flooded with funny replies,
“i’m not jealous,”
there’s a small pause,
“…maybe a little,” he joked, pointing his finger to the screen playfully,
he laughed, sighing out loudly like he was holding it in for years before he leaned back, more relaxed now,
“i wasn’t planning to expose myself like this but yk, i’m not mad it happened,”
his voice softened again,
“i just didn’t expect my members to be this excited about it,” he grinned softly, “but i’m happy they all get along tho,”
“WE WAITED SO LONG!!” woojin’s voice suddenly shouted into the room, as he stepped inside, welcoming himself into ryul’s room,
ryul shot back up, his head whipping towards the door faster than light, “why are you here,”
woojin walked over to the desk, popping up on the screen behind ryul,
“hi guys,” he smiled a little too excited, waving at the camers, “she’s really nice, don’t worry,”
“can you get out,” ryul said, pushing woojin to the side playfully,
louis and ohyul stormed into the room too, not wanting to miss out on whatever was happening,
“wassuppp,” louis giggled as he waved to the phone, “wow the chat is going wild,” he gasped as he leaned forward to read comments,
“hiii,” ohyul beamed, grinning just as widely as the younger one
“hyung, they’re asking who’s wearing the pants in your relationship,”
“obviously noona-“ woojin laughed,
“stop,” ryul shoots back, hitting his member softly,
“it’s true tho because everytime hyung does-“
“stop talking!”
the chat was going insane, again
“WE LOVE THIS GROUP”
“FAMILY FR”
“WE NEED MORE GF DETAILS!!!!!!”
ryul pushed woojin out of frame, sighing,
“stay out of my business,” he jokingly said,
“is he blushing??” louis huffed excitedly,
“stop!” ryul sighed again, hiding his face in his hands,
the members were all laughing, but the atmosphere was chill and comfortable
of course they would take every opportunity to tease him, but all jokes aside, they’re so supportive
like, so so supportive
“hyung how do you feel about it tho,”
“about you being annoying?”
“no- about your relationship being public now,”
he shrugged his shoulders, but the corner of his lips curled up into a small smile;
“i’m happy,” he replied,
later, after he finished the live stream, you came over to the dorm, just like any other night
you were sitting at his desk, the rest of the boys all scattered around somewhere in the room,
“so,” woojin said, serious for no reason, “now that it’s public will you still bring snacks?”
you blinked, already smiling at the seriousness in his tone, “is that all you care about??”
“yes,” he replied immediately, grinning
“don’t answer that,” ryul said, walking back into his room,
“traitor,” louis pointed at him, “you tried to gatekeep her,”
“she’s my girlfriend, not yours,”
“what’s mine’s yours, what’s yours’ mine,” woojin said, before bursting out in laughter when ryul shot him the most disturbing look ever, “i’m joking,”
you laughed, shaking your head, “of course i’ll bring snacks,” you said,
and the members erupted into exciting cheers, like actual cheering,
“see?” woojin nudged ryul, clearly not done teasing yet, “she’s better than you,”
ryul scoffed softly, placing his hands on your shoulders as he stood behind you, pulling you closer so you’re leaning against him,
“yeah,” he said easily, “i know,
you looked up at him as he softly massaged your shoulders, “that was smooth,” you laughed
“he’s been practicing,” ohyul said,
“in the shower?” you jokingly guessed,
“how did you know,” ryul grinned, leaning down to give you a soft kiss on the cheek, closing his arms around you in a quick embrace,
the members groaned,
“get a room!!” woojin yelled, throwing a pillow to the two of you,
“this is his room,” louis laughed
“fair,”
“yeah so if you don’t mind, i’d like a moment with my girlfriend,”
“sure, have one,” woojin nodded, as he leaned back in his seat more,
“he means alone,” ohyul laughed as he pulled woojin out of his chair, already pushing louis out of the room,
“what’s wrong with our company?” woojin yelled, laughing,
“a lot,” ryul shoots back,
you hit his arm softly, “don’t say that,”
“see noona wants me to stay,”
“no she doesn’t,” ryul argued,
“she does, look she-“
“hyung they wanna kiss and do other couple stuff,” louis yelled from the living room, already settling down on the couch,
“eww,” woojin laughed,
“get out,” ryul said as he walked towards the door, pushing him further out of his room, before closing the door fully
“hyung,” woojin yelled again from the other side, knocking on the door like a little kid, “do you wanna-“
“no, go away,”
there was a small moment of silence and you stared at the door and after a short 10 seconds the knocking started again..
you looked at him, trying not to laugh,
“noona, if you need help, just scream loudly ok?!” woojin said with a muffled laugh, rattling the door again,
you opened your mouth to say something but the annoyed, yet amused, look on ryul’s face made you laugh before you could even say anything,
“GO AWAY,” he groaned loudly,
but the laughter outside only got louder as you heard loud footsteps running around on the other side of the door,
ryul sighed, dropping his head before looking at you, “they’re never letting this go,”
you smiled, “they’re just excited tho,”
“and annoying,” he huffed, brushing a hand through his hair as he walked over to you again,
and for the rest of the night, the noise outside didn’t stop
but neither did your smiles,
the smiles you don’t have to hide anymore tho,
so much for keeping things lowkey, all thanks to a cute little plushie

the digital clock on the studio wall was a glowing red ghost in the dimly lit hallway. 7:45 pm.
ryul leaned against the cool industrial brick, his jaw set in a hard line.he had been standing there for forty-five minutes.in his pocket,the two tickets for the indie film premiere,the one you had been talking about for three weeks.
they were supposed to meet at the entrance at 7:00 sharp.they were supposed to grab a quick coffee,talk about something other than choreography or chart rankings,and pretend, for just a few hours,that they were a normal couple.
but "normal" was a luxury they rarely afforded themselves.in the strange,nebulous space between "teammates" and "something more," every minute of stolen time was a currency. and right now,ryul felt like he was being robbed.
he checked his phone for the tenth time.no texts.no "running late" emojis.just a deafening silence from your end.
finally,the restlessness became too much.he pushed off the wall and headed toward the practice wing.he told himself he was just checking if you were okay,maybe you’d tripped, maybe you’d fainted from overwork.but as he drew closer to room 4, the sound of music wasn’t what met him.
It was a laugh.
your laugh was distinct,a bright, unrestrained sound that usually acted as his north star.but tonight,it felt like a serrated edge.
ryul stopped at the door,which was pushed slightly ajar.the overhead fluorescent lights were harsh,casting long shadows across the mirrors.inside,you weren’t practicing.you were sitting on the floor,your back against the mirror, clutching your water bottle as if it were the only thing keeping you upright from sheer exhaustion or amusement.
standing over you was woojin.
he was mid gesture,mimicking a particularly difficult transition from their new title track, but doing it with an exaggerated,goofy flair that had you doubled over.
"I’m telling you," woojin grinned,wiping sweat from his forehead with his sleeve. "If I do it like that on stage,the fans won't know if I'm dancing or having a localized seizure. It’s all about the intent, y/n."
"you looked like a literal flamingo,woojin!" you gasped, hitting his shin with your hand.
woojin laughed,reaching down and grabbing your hand to pull you up.he didn’t let go immediately.he kept his grip on your wrist, checking the fitness tracker on your arm.
“your heart rate is up,you should probably calm down before the movie” he said letting not looking up from the tracker.
"the movie," you whispered,your eyes widening. "wait, what time-"
"It’s late," ryul’s voice cut through the air like a blade.
both of you jumped.woojin let go of your wrist as if it had turned into live wire.ryul was framed in the doorway,his leather jacket on, his hands shoved deep into his pockets.he didn't look like a boyfriend waiting for a date,he looked like he was gonna punch woojin
"yul!oh my god," you scrambled for your phone, which was buried under a pile of discarded towels.when the screen lit up,your face went pale. "7:52? I-I thought it was barely 7:15. We got caught up on the bridge section,and then woojin started showing me these old trainee clips and-"
"I see what he was showing you," ryul interrupted.he finally looked at woojin.It wasn't a look of hatred,but one of cold,simmering territoriality. "the previews started twenty minutes ago.the theater is on the other side of the han."
woojin, usually the peacemaker,cleared his throat awkwardly.he could feel the static electricity in the room. "hey,man,my bad.I didn't realize you guys were on such a tight schedule.I was just trying to help her decompress after that four-hour block."
"she was supposed to decompress with me," ryul said,his voice dangerously low. "she doesn't need a teammate to tell her when to breathe.she needs to check her watch."
"ryul,stop," you said,your voice regaining some of its fire. "It’s not his fault.I lost track of time. don't take it out on him."
woojin held up his hands,backing toward the door. "I’ll leave you guys to it.see you at the dorms."
the door clicked shut.the silence that followed was heavy,filled with the hum of the air conditioning and the sound of your heavy breathing.you began stuffing your shoes into your gym bag,your movements jerky and defensive.
"I’m sorry, okay? I’m human.I got distracted," you snapped,not looking at him.
"distracted?" ryul walked into the room,the souls of his shoes echoing against the wood floor. "we’ve had these tickets for three weeks, y/n.I’ve been waiting in that hallway for forty-five minutes.I heard you laughing ten minutes ago.you weren't 'practicing.' you were flirting."
you dropped your bag with a heavy thud.you whipped around,your eyes flashing. "flirting? are you serious? woojin is like a brother to me. we were blowing off steam because this comeback is killing us both.since when is having a conversation with a teammate a betrayal?"
"It’s a betrayal of my time," ryul countered, stepping into your space. "It’s about the fact that you’d rather stay in this sweat-stained room laughing at woojin’s jokes than show up for the one thing we planned this month.do you have any idea how hard it is to maintain... whatever this is... when you treat me like an afterthought?"
"I don't treat you like an afterthought!"
"then what do you call this?" ryul gestured to the empty room. "I’m standing there like a fool while you’re in here getting 'carried away.' It’s always something,y/n.a longer vocal session,a staff meeting,or woojin needing a dance partner.If you don't want to be in a relationship,just say it.don't make me wait in hallways for a ghost."
you felt a lump form in your throat.part of it was guilt,but the rest was pure,unadulterated frustration. "you think you’re the only one who finds this hard? every time I look at you in practice,I have to pretend I’m not thinking about the night before.I’m exhausted,ryul.and yeah,woojin made me laugh.he made me feel like I wasn't just a machine for a second.Is that such a crime?"
"the crime is that you didn't think to include me in that," ryul said, his voice cracking for the first time.the jealousy wasn't just about woojin,it was about the ease they had. "you give them the fun y/n.the light y/n.I get the tired version. I get the version that’s too busy to check her phone.I get the 'situationship' version that hides behind excuses."
you reached out to touch his arm,but he flinched away.the rejection stung more than the words.
"I’m not an option you pick when the room is empty,y/n" ryul said,turning toward the door.
"where are you going?" you called out,your voice small. "the movie is already started, we can still-"
"go home," ryul said,not looking back. "I'm going for a walk.I think we both need to decide if we're actually in this,or if you're just waiting for someone who makes it feel less like work."
he stepped out,leaving the door wide open. you stood in the center of the fluorescent light, the silence of the studio feeling colder than it ever had before.you looked at your phone,8:05 pm.the night was ruined,and for the first time, you weren’t sure if a simple "sorry" would ever be enough to fix the crack he’d left behind.
the dorm was unnervingly quiet when you finally walked in.It was past midnight,and the adrenaline of your argument had soured into a heavy,aching fatigue.you saw ryul’s shoes by the door,kicked off haphazardly,a sign of the same restless energy he’d left the studio with. you didn't go to your room.Instead,you sat on the balcony,the city lights of seoul blurred by a light mist,waiting for the courage to knock on his door.
you didn't have to.the sliding glass door creaked open,and ryul stepped out,draped in an oversized hoodie.he didn't look at you at first,opting to lean his elbows on the railing, staring out at the horizon.
"I didn't go to the movie," he said quietly.his voice was no longer sharp,it was just tired.
"I know," you whispered,your fingers tracing the hem of your sweater. "I stayed in the practice room for an hour.just... thinking."
you stood up and moved to the railing,leaving a careful foot of space between them. "ryul, you were right.and I’m not saying that just to end the fight.I’ve been using the 'work' excuse as a shield because being with you feels so high stakes.If I mess up a dance,I can fix it. If I mess this up,if I lose you,I don't know what I'd do.so I leaned into the easy stuff.the jokes with the guys, the extra hours. It’s safer than facing how much I actually need you."
ryul finally turned his head.the moonlight caught the exhaustion in his eyes,but the coldness from earlier had thawed. "It didn't feel safe to me,y/n.It felt like I was being phased out."
"you could never be phased out," you said,your voice trembling.you reached out,tentatively covering his hand with yours.this time,he didn't flinch. "woojin is a friend, but he’s not the person I want to tell my secrets to.he’s not the person I want to come home to.I’m sorry I made you feel like an afterthought.I’m sorry I let the time slip away."
ryul sighed,a long breath that seemed to carry the weight of the entire evening out of his lungs.he turned his hand over,interlacing his fingers with yours,his grip tight,almost desperate.
"I don't want to be the guy who gets jealous of his own teammates," he admitted,pulling you closer until your forehead rested against his shoulder. "but I’m selfish when it comes to you.I only get so much of your time.I hate sharing it when I already feel like I'm starving for it."
you leaned into him,the familiar scent of his cologne finally grounding you. "no more 'situationship' excuses.no more hiding behind the schedule.If we’re doing this, I’m all in."
ryul tilted your chin up,his thumb brushing over your cheek. "all in?"
"all in," you promised.
he leaned down,his kiss slow and lingering, a silent seal on a new understanding.the movie was long over,and the night was nearly gone, but as they stood there in the quiet of the balcony, the time finally belonged to them.
