owning it.

“I have to say, there is very little stranger than being a forty-three year old man with four children already, and getting into a pregnancy scandal,” he admitted, rubbing his hand over his face with a little laugh. It was the first time since gabe was born that he’d been back at the higher building– he was just in and out, getting some stuff so he could do some work from home while on paternity leave. but gabriel was old enough to not be a sobbing mess when away from lucille, so andrew thought he’d bring the baby along in a little carrier, so his friends at work could meet him. “seems the place hasn’t burned down in my absence, so that’s nice to see at least.”

[rvdohee]

“i can imagine. any scandal at all, really-- aren’t you established enough for people to not still make such a big deal?” dohee asked with a little giggle. “not for lack of trying. i’m sure hyosang oppa was close. but you forget the trainee boys are all at idol project, so we were saved from a little chaos.”

“i’ll forgive you– your brain isn’t awake yet, so you have three free stupid statements that you can make until i start roasting you,” jeni answered, reaching over to fix dohee’s bangs slightly. “dohee, this isn’t a cheesy drama where everyone is so fragile they keel over the moment a breeze goes through. i’ve let my hair air dry for a quarter century– i think i’m fine.”

“please don’t make fun of me, jeni...” she whined, stifling another yawn and pouting. “whenever i don’t dry my hair, i swear my nose runs-- it’s not just a myth!” she insisted. “honestly, i’m surprised some of your wrestler friends don’t get sick fighting with wet hair...”

“If I see Rejectz promoting year-round, I can only assume that science made enough leaps in progress to start cloning idols for real, or you all are just super good at masking sleep deprivation,” Duri laughed. “Hey, I’m serious if you are… I needed that.”

“god, i would cry. like... if trinity was promoting all year round, it’d be different. they’d be so tired and sick but they have staff. we do everything ourselves. i don’t think i can be that stylistically creative even if i wanted to....” she whined. “well, i’m glad i helped then! besides deviant, new age seems to have hit a home run every time, you know? you guys are growing so much too.”

[rvdohee]

rvmindeulle​:

“And about half of those units are all just some variation of Byulbit,” Duri laughed. “Thanks, Dohee. That means a lot.”

“you know, as crazy as byulbit is, it’s kind of smart,” she commented. “groups like mine can’t be promoting globally all year. but technically, byulbit can....” she giggled. “i can’t tell if you’re being serious or not, but either way, you’re welcome!”

[rvjenifer]

“you know, i could get used to this whole your group being on a break thing,” jeni said, admiring her girlfriend from the door to her bathroom. when she’d gotten up to shower, dohee had still been asleep, but the sun was rising, and so was the idol. and she was gorgeous. the athlete sauntered over, tower wrapped around her waist and another hanging over her shoulders, siting down on the edge of the bed where dohee was laying. “having you wake up next to me instea od off in a dorm is something that i’m going to miss when you get back to work, you know.” @rvdohee

[rvdohee]

she was only just waking up-- the sun filtering in through the window was starting to rouse her. only for her to be absolutely assaulted by the sighed of her mostly-naked fresh-from-the-shower girlfriend when she rolled over to try to get the sun out of her eyes and get a bit more sleep. there were worse ways to wake up, she supposed. “i was going to say something about how nice it is to not share a room, but i don’t think i thought that through...” dohee answered groggily, stifling a yawn and adjusting the covers securely over her chest (she was a little shy..). “you should dry your hair before you get a cold....”

[rvdoah]

Doah didn’t mind running errands for her friends, in fact, during this little mini break she wanted to spend as much time, however cold, soaking up as much sun and fresh air as she could. So when the other requested her to go pick up a book at the store for her, she didn’t mind going and grabbing it. Maybe she’d even grab a book of her own. She’s on facetime with them,  about to announce that she’s finally found the book when she sees the meme they were showing her on the screen, “I—” She starts before moving the phone out of her face so she can at least try and contain her laugh, “SO ANYWAYS, i found the book.”

[rvdohee]

dohee giggled, clocking her head to the side with a playful smile. “honestly, i didn’t think it would be that hard to find? like....sure, fashion cataloguing isn’t a huge hobby for most people, but of all history books, i’d’ve though fashion history would be the most fun to learn about...”

[rvjiwoo]

“Oh no,” A soft laugh makes it’s way through the idol’s lips, hand coming to cover her face at the sight of the phone, “Please no pictures, I tried to experiment and do my own makeup today and I’m 100% sure I failed…”  It wasn’t like she had anything special to do that day, but she was still pretty embarrassed about it, “i should’ve let one of the other girls do my make up….”

[rvdohee]

as rejectz’s stylist, she had a good grasp on makeup. these days she didn’t actually do the makeup herself-- she just laid out a concept that higher’s mua’s had to follow-- but that didn’t mean she didn’t still have the fundamentals down. “here--let me look. maybe i can help you fix it. or give you some pointers.”

[rvdohee]

rvjenifer​:

“i’m just trying to motivate you,” jeni retorted innocently. “consider it motivation. you finish these reps and the rest of the session, and i’ll make sure to more than make it all worth it later. deal?”

she rolled her eyes and adjusted her grip. “yeah, whatever you say,” the tinier of the two grumbled. “but if i’m too tired and worn out, it’s all your fault.”

[rvdohee]

rvsookie​:

“well, that implies that our next comeback will be in the summer, so i’m onboard,” sangsuk retorted. “gives me enough time to figure out how to do a summer song too, so bonus.”

“you say that as if you aren’t a genius producer. you could listen to five summer songs, understand the structure immediately, and then be on your way to deconstructing the whole genre and making it your own,” she retorted with an eyeroll.

[rvdohee]

rvquin​:

“well, screw em. it’s your hair and you look super cute with bangs,” quyen answered

“thanks, quyen. i think i look cute with bangs too,” she said, grinning

[rvsookie]

“alright, no new releases until 2021. spring at the very least,” sangsuk sighed, throwing her phone aside, finished looking at comments on i’m the trend. “i need a fucking nap for three months.” // @rvvia​ @rvdohee​ @rvdoah​ @srvnyi​ @rvevie​

[rvdohee]

“please can we have a summer release? like, a real cliche girl group summer song, but done our way, and done right? i have so many outfit ideas, and they’re wasting away!” dohee whined

[rvdohee]

rvjenifer​:

“i’m fine doing all the work. you’re not getting out of this that easy,” jeni retorted cheekily. “and i’m sure if you want to pursue some… extracurricular activities badly enough later, you’ll find a second wind. stop making excuses.”

dohee sighed dramatically, holding the weight with both hands and glaring at jeni, face bright red. “it’s really hard to work out when you keep making me go faint,” she grumbled under her breath. 

[rvdohee]

rvquin​:

“i don’t know– bangs suit you really well. do people actually want you to get rid of them? i can’t even imagine that.”

“i think whenever any sort of idol has fringe, some people want to free the forehead. but i can promise, that’s never happening again.”

[rvdohee]

rvjenifer​:

“all the more reason to push. pushing through moments like these is when it counts. it’s how you make your endurance stronger, and its where you see the most results. keep going– you’ve got this. you can do hard things, dohee,” jeni encouraged. smiling back deviously, she picked up one of the weights, holding it to dohee. “oh, i’m sure i can test your stamina in other ways. we’ll just have to save that for later. you’re on the clock right now. shame, really.”

red as a tomato, dohee gingerly took the weight from, jeni, avoiding eye contact. “i dunno...” she mumbled, biting her lip. “i might be too tired from all this exercising........... maybe we should just call it here so i can conserve my energy for something else....”

[rvdohee]

rvaeri​:

“well, that’s very kind of you to say. thank you,” aeri said softly, blushing. “i just wonder if they don’t have the right infrastructure or something…”

“the existence of harmony and burnout would suggest otherwise, but i hope that’s it, and not just them being terrible on purpose,” dohee sighed

[rvdohee]

rvmindeulle​:

“I think the fact that New Age comparatively doesn’t have a ton of groups like Spotlight just yet might be a little part of why they don’t forget, but I see your point,” Duri replied. “I think I’ll start worrying if we end up in a year-long hiatus, but it’s still too early to tell.”

“if you count all the units, new age has like...... thirty groups. and i know terras units dont really do anything anymore, but both of distich’s get promoted pretty well, and havent been forgotten about yet since byulbit’s. have faith-- i’m sure you’ll be fine.”

[rvdohee]

rvquin​:

“well, for what it’s worth, you’re cute. forehead and all. especially now that you’re styling yourself– from what i’ve seen, spotlight styling can be sus for just about everyone.”

“thank you. and to all the new fans who don’t know better who have free the forehead campaigns? literally never again,” dohee laughed.
