“ isn’t kaleidoscope almost twice as big as distich? ” lixue asks, tilting her head to the side, as a leader junxi would know the answer to their own question. “ it’s… both. ” she hums. “ it’s easier for keeping an eye on everyone so nobody is overlooked but, well, it’s harder to agree on things since everyone has their own concept on what is best for the group. ”

“yeah, but we have like...three leaders. and two more unofficial leaders. and rarely promote with more than like... eight of us at a time,” junxi pointed out with a tiny shrug. “that definitely makes sense. i kind of envy you guys; having like....one unit and one big group seems like there’s more of an opportunity for more close connections, with the unit at least. i feel like with all the scope units, i never really get a chance to get to know everyone, especially with creed stuff on top of it...”

“i think, at this point, we might as well have dorms in china and in korea,” junxi commented, suppressing a giant yawn. “i know we’re never in china for more than a couple months at a time, but think about it-- we go there enough. and wouldn’t travel be way less stressful if we just had our own rooms and didn’t have to worry about hotel accommodations sucking?” @chenrv​ @rvquin​ @rvbaohui​

“uh, welcome to the family, i guess,” junxi said awkwardly, holding out their hand to shake sangah’s. it had started as a joke when creed had debuted, that kworks threw a “company party”. kind of a funny thing to do when none of the artists were actually signed to you. but with the debut of syndicate, it seemed that was turning into a bit of a tradition. “how have your first few months of promoting treated you?” @rvsangah​

[rvjunxi]

“does distich having multiple leaders make it easier or harder,” junxi mused aloud, though they were genuinely curious. “like...there’s so many of you, so i’d think it would all be easier, but also like.... people always say too many chefs ruin the broth, right?” @rvlixue​

[rvjunxi]

rvdahlia​:

dajeong got dropped off way too early for this stage, but she supposed it made sense. most of the girls were walking over from the dorm, and the rest had schedules elsewhere. still, she had no idea what she was doing, and being alone made her feel kind of out of place and awkward. she almost breathed a sign of relief when another person came in. “i have no idea– but if you are, so am i,” she answered. “i just got dropped off by my manager and told to come here… i’m clueless.”

“well, i guess its better to be early rather than late, yeah?” junxi pointed out with a sheepish shrug, sliding out of their coat and outdoor boots and putting them neatly to the side, all while taking out their sneakers and beginning to do them up. “maybe it’s just us.... that might be better, you know. i don’t think two new age groups could fit in this studio, let alone all of them.”

[rvjunxi]

when junxi was told that new age was planning a company-wide collaboration stage for a special edition of music bank, they weren’t sure what to expect. that stage needed to be huge-- the smallest group in the company was twelve members. the smallest. but when they opened the door to the practice room, and all they saw was dajeong? they were shocked. junxi awkwardly stepped through the door, adjusting their windbreaker. “hey, uh... am i early?” @rvdahlia​

[rvjunxi]

rvbaohui​:

“For sure, it feels like there’s a lot more camaraderie here, at least in my experience,” Baohui said. He had friends at Liberty, sure, but the groups being smaller bred a lot more competition. “You’re welcome! It’s cool that mnet took a chance, they should do it more I think… “

“i mean, i can’t speak to your experience at liberty, but i’ve been at a few companies. and i’ve been debuted before. and i genuinely haven’t seen anywhere like new age. i’m fortunate to be here,” junxi asserted. they smiled. “i think it’s cool too. opens a lot of doors. and sometimes nasty comments come through those doors but....at least they’re open?”

[rvjunxi]

rvsangmin​:

“well, you’ve seen the terra lore. i wouldn’t put it past our ceo to have crazy ideas like that.”

“honestly, i’m just grateful to have debuted and not be ridiculously dysphoric about it, so lore or not, i’ll take it,” they admitted.

[rvjunxi]

rvsangmin​:

“is that another way in which we’re the antithesis to byulbit? they’re order and we’re disorder?” sangmin asked

“you know, maybe that’s the plan. i’d be pretty impressed if they planned that far ahead,” junxi laughed

[rvjunxi]

rvbaohui​:

“If I knew how things were going to shake out, I might have joined earlier… still don’t think I would’ve tried to do Idol Project or anything, but it probably would’ve been easier to get acclimated with everyone around,” Baohui admitted, scratching his head. “I know I’m way late to saying it, but congrats. The Creed stuff is super cool.”

“oh definitely. it’s different elsewhere, but at new age, it’s a lot nicer when everyone’s together,” junxi said. maybe that’s why new age’s groups ended up so big-- all the trainees just vibed so well together. “that’s super kindof you to say, thank you! i was surprised the show even let me on, let alone everything that happened afterwards. i still don’t think i’ve processed it all.”

[rvsangmin]

“i really have no idea what our debut concept for our unit could even be,” sangmin said, pushing his hair back out of his face. “the things they’re having us practice…. i get more confused with every rehearsal.” @rvjunxi​ @rvquin​ @sangheerv​ @rvraein​

[rvjunxi]

“black’s debut was super strange too. it was like...sexy, but the choreo wasn’t sexy,” junxi said with a laugh. “i think all of scope is just going to be confusing.”

[rvmeilin]

“there’s nothing more frustrating than knowing the name of something, but having to call it something stupid,” meilin sighed dramatically, adjusting her ponytail. “like doing a back extension roll with an extra kick to take out someone’s legs, but having it be called something ridiculous like the equalizer? i think it’s going to be the death of me.”

[rvjunxi]

“i dunno. i think the equalizer is kind of a cool name. it sounds like a weapon that a supervillain would have.”

[rvjunxi]

jieunrv​:

“it really is. like, they thought i was useless, but how can i be useless if i’m the first person l3thal has signed in a decade, you know?”

“and when you’re artist of the year, they’ll be real fucking sorry.”

[rvbaohui]

“I know Scope’s debut is still somewhat far out and we’ll probably have a better time for this later on, but I haven’t been the best at… really trying to get to know anyone, and it’s been a year,” Baohui said, rushing his words a little. “I just… don’t want to be too awkward when we debut so I was thinking we could talk, or something. It might help.”

@sangheerv​ ​ @rvjunxi​ @rvroyi​ @chenrv​ @rvsangmin​ @rvquin​ @rvraein​

[rvjunxi]

“honestly, i don’t blame you-- it was a weird year to join, what with most of us going to idol project for a huge chunk of it,” baohui said with a tiny smile. “i’m open to hanging out, though! whenever creed isn’t promoting, at least!”

[rvjunxi]

jieunrv​:

“still think that’s nuts, by the way, but it’s nice. i always knew i had potential. having other people finally see it too means the world.”

“no, for real-- that must feel so vindicating after spotlight fucking you for years.”

[rvjunxi]

rvminsuk​:

“well, i like it. you, me and hyunjoo made a great team, and we might not get to see that team out with you, but you were the best of us. you deserve all this shit,” minsuk insisted.

“god, that’s really nice of you to say. i really hope you guys do well on season 3-- i think you both have a lot to show the world.”

[rvjunxi]

rvjoonie​:

“wow, a kpop label making a good choice? that almost never happens,” joonie joked.

“i know-- we should throw a party or something. this might never happen again.”
