cwnseokmin​: tag, you’re it!

the whole time sooin was talking to the horse seokmin could hear the whole conversation. he tried his best to keep quiet, because it was quite amusing to hear her talk to the horse. but eventually he was sussed out. seokmin knew exactly why sooin was forced to do cleaning duty. so today, on his off day, he chose to come down to the stables and help with the horses. it wasn’t that he had to, it also wasn’t that he wanted to either. but he honestly felt like it was the right thing to do.

“see, that is yurye’s horse. but the general wanted you to clean it” seokmin stated with a chuckle before walking out of the stall. and towards the young knight. folding his arms against his chest he shrugged softly at her question. “i’d never get tired of yurye. i was lucky enough to get to be the knight to my best friend” he stated calmly and leaned against the stall and playfully yawned towards sooin.

now the ball was in his court. should he tell her he was down here for amusement? or tell her that he was actually deciding to be nice to her and help her? one would probably get him fussed at by her. the other would either also get him fussed at, or she would get all whiny about him being nice. in his opinion her fussing at him was a better option then her thinking he was going soft. “honestly? i’m here for the entertainment” seokmin chuckled walking over towards the hay picking up a bushel and throwing it towards the door of the stable. granted anyone could see that he was actually doing work, instead of just watching the other work.

“now come on.” he teased walking towards the the entrance of the stall that he threw the barrel at.

sooin’s smile turns into an unamused frown as soon as he replies. her nose scrunches as she rolls her eyes playfully before she crosses her arms. always the voice of logic. 

“oh come on, it wouldn’t hurt if you did clean his highness’ horse’s stall,” sooin jokes as she leans against the stall before giving the horse a pat on the side. 

as seokmin continued speaking about the prince, sooin fell into deeper thought. there was something that sooin could never really understand about the private knights she met. the loyalty they had to their royals was incredible. like intense but really incredible. even sooin admitted that. but the amount of loyalty they had was something she never got. 

as an elite knight, she was sworn to serve the king and queen, but the oath… the job... the life that private knights took to fulfill their duties to their assigned royal… it was something sooin didn’t think she would ever be able to commit to. she loved her freedom and being able to do things however and whenever she wanted. 

which, was also why she found it so strange for seokmin to be present to begin with. 

her curiosity is all but answered too quickly as seokmin states he’s there for entertainment.

that comment is enough to rile sooin up as she pushes herself off the stall and follows his lead.

“hey now,” sooin begins with a light threatening tone, “watching me clean the stalls isn’t that entertaining. does that prince of yours not keep you well fed enough to know what good entertainment is?” 

sooin remarks jokingly before offering an even better idea up, “if you really want some entertainment. how about a bet? loser cleans baekgwang’s stall!”

cwnjangmi​: oopsie daisy

[...]

“Don’t keep me waiting.” She tsked at him and he grinned back at her cheekily before giving her a passionate kiss, surprising her. Jangmi kissed him back and then broke the kiss so that she could close her door before anyone saw, but she froze when she turned away from her fuck boy only to make eye contact with the knight. Jangmi quickly shoved the fuck boy further into her room while stepping out of her room in one motion. Closing her bedroom door behind her, she quietly snapped, “How long have you been watching?” Then she shook her head, “Nevermind.” Jangmi crossed her arms,

“How much to keep your mouth shut?”

sooin inwardly groaned as she trudged through the dimly lit corridors. pulling her phone from her pockets, she saw the blaring white numbers of the time mocking her as it flashed 1.58am. 

“fucking hell,” sooin grumbled under her breath as she continued walking down the hall. 

she had had an extremely long day and the last thing she had to do before the end of the day was report to the queen and the king. and unfortunately, the queen had asked her to complete an incredibly stupid task. she had been hoping that the king would have spoken up and asked her to do something for him instead but he didn’t. and now sooin was stuck having to do something for the queen for the next week or whenever the queen felt complacent with sooin’s job on the task.

following the meeting with the king and queen, sooin had been dragged into a meeting with the grand officer asking her to make some time on the weekend to help with some new knights in training to demonstrate fighting tactics she used as an elite knight. despite the grand officer knowing how sooin was going to try to make excuses out of it, they continued by stating she had no choice because despite being a knight that directly served the king and queen (the excuse she would always use to get out of things) she was still a knight of spades and was required to complete her duties as one when needed. such as stupid dumb knight training.

why couldn’t they have bothered another elite knight for that?

sooin almost doesn’t notice the silhouette that suddenly crosses the hallway and slips behind a doorway in her daze of utter annoyance. but then she realizes that this wing is where bedrooms are and she immediately widens her steps to get closer. despite palace patrol being a first knight’s duty, with the grand officer’s words still ringing clearly in her eyes, she was still a knight and that meant any suspicion wasn’t to be taken lightly. there were no knights in the hallway so whoever was sneaking into the royal’s bedroom was doing it knowingly and intentionally.

as sooin finally gets close enough to see past the doorway, she catches sight of a princess shamelessly making out with a stranger with the door open. her steps slow a little as she contemplates what to do because… well… what the hell was she supposed to do?

afterall, someone who wasn’t a royal, staff member or knight wasn’t supposed to be in the palace that late to begin with. but… the princess was obviously just hooking up… and then it clicks in sooin’s head.

this girl is that one… kwon jangmi princess. the one with rumors that would circulate every now and then. well… guess the rumors are true.

sooin is about to slip away and decide to pretend that she hadn’t witnessed anything but then the princess spots her just before she shuts her door, immediately stepping out to confront sooin.

goddamnit.

sooin tries, but doesn’t succeed in rolling her eyes as she walks up to the princess with an extremely curt bow (looked like a twitch really). and she debates again. what does she actually want to see.

as sooin opens her mouth to respond, she gets a heavy whiff of sweet vanilla filling her mouth and immediately coughs before taking a step back into the clean oxygen of the wide corridor.

before sooin’s even able to get a word in, the princess immediately says something extremely interesting, catching sooin’s attention. now. this was definitely getting interesting and down sooin’s lane.

she replaces the gag that had been sitting on the edge of her lips for a wide sly smile, appreciating the turn things had suddenly taken. “depends. if you’re asking me to keep my mouth shut about the stranger who clearly doesn’t belong in here - especially at this time of the night, 100. if you’re asking about you making out with the stranger - which would happen to make a lot of rumors true - with your door open, 200. and if you’re asking for both, 300.”

**trigger warning: blood, murder, death

Keep reading

[sooincwn]

sooin turns her head to the side to give a shout of acknowledgement before she makes a turn around the corner. considering that she didn’t have much going on at that moment (in all honesty she had gotten sidetracked and “forgotten” the task that royal advisor lee had insisted she complete before leaving for town) sooin didn’t really mind taking some time to help the maid and cook who had run into each other in their rush to delivery the afternoon refreshments they had been carrying. and although sooin seemed like she didn’t know something as simple as where a cleaning closet would be located, considering her title, sooin actually knew more about the layout of the palaces then she let on. after all, with the tasks that she was assigned, she needed to know every nook and cranny to complete everything in absolute secrecy.

as sooin nears the closet with cleaning supplies, she quietly begins humming a familiar tune. although catchy, it was one of those annoying ones that she could never get out of her head. which was probably a sign that she was needed to pay more attention to the tunes she put on whenever she was completing a task for background noise.

which reminds sooin of the fact that she’s supposed to get to town within the next hour to make sure she gets the discount for lunch. that and the noble she was meant to be following also had an appointment and this meeting was crucial for her to get details about. a thought about which dress she should wear as her disguise today crosses her mind as she opens the door before…

trigger warning: mentions of murder

the prince in front of her has the eyes of a deer - caught in headlights - as he stands there with blood on his hands and an unmoving body on the ground at his feet.

her eyes immediately dart back to the face of the prince and she takes a second before gasping out loud.

“hey! you’re prince chul!” sooin grins and nods proudly at herself for being able to recall who he was after taking a closer look. aside from that, she also notices a smear of red near his temple and contemplates how to tell him there’s blood on his face.

and then she remembers that she’s still holding the door open - and although the closet was in a secluded corner - anyone walking by would definitely be able to see everything. so, sooin simply steps in without a second thought before closing the door behind her. in his silence to her nonchalant reaction upon discovering him, sooin easily turns to start looking for a bucket, mop and floor detergent to clean up the mess in the hall.

as she skims the shelves, she decides to break the silence for the poor prince, “you know, i didn’t realize you were into this stuff. honestly, if i knew you were a killer too i’d definitely have approached you a lot sooner!” 

sooin comments before continuing, “i guess all the things people in the palace say about you is valid then. you know, all that stuff about being scared of you because you’re the iron prince. although you really should be more careful about where you’re bringing bodies to. i actually would suggest using the closet two halls down from here. it’s right next to a window that drops to a balcony to the corner of one of the side wing libraries that doesn’t get used often for quick escapes.”

after gathering the bucket and detergent from the shelves, sooin catches sight of the mop in the back corner of the room. she then turns to face the prince again with a slightly expectant expression while pointing to the mop, “do you mind grabbing the mop for me?”

a simple envelope arrives at your room, so nondescript you may wonder if it’s actually meant for you — until you notice your name written on the front in black, cursive letters. there is no sender but the envelope has been closed shut with a wax seal you know to be from ( @thecrownseer ). it seems you have a message of upmost importance… but will you open it?

“a young child who appears to be of lower class notices an amulet you’re wearing. with eyes full of wonder and admiration, they bashfully ask if there’s any possibility that they can have it. however, the amulet was specially gifted to you as recognition of your talents and skills by the king and queen themselves. what is your response?”

tw: mentions of death

sooin smiles lightly. genuinely. she can easily picture one of the young ones in town who’s always running around and getting into a little more mischief than the others noticing something as small as an amulet around her neck despite the height difference. they were a little rowdy, but still a child nonetheless. and one who was a little more unfortunate than the rest to everyone’s dismay.

his parents had both passed away not long after he was born. his mother from the pains of birth and his father from a sudden illness after the loss of his dear wife. and so he was taken in by the town’s local orphanage barely a month after his birth. although they had different experiences, sooin could see a lot of the same traits she carried in him as he grew in the tough world. it was what made her grow so fond of him.

even then though, fondness could not make up for what the queen and king would conjure in their minds should they ever find sooin without her amulet. a child’s innocence versus the scheming minds of the kingdom’s rulers were two very different worlds. the amulet was a gift of recognition, not one easily nor commonly bestowed. should it ever be discovered by the king and queen that she lost it, sold it, or simply gave it away to a child of lesser fortunes… the amount of disrespect that would be towards the king and queen.

which leads her to her answer. one that isn’t hard to figure out at all. she wouldn’t give the child the amulet.

but.

sooin is not unreasonable. nor does she lack empathy especially for a child wanting something out of adoration despite her rough demeanor. it wasn’t a crime for children to want things they didn’t have. so despite the consequences of if she did give the amulet to him being out of her control, she could still make up for any disappointment he would have in her saying no.

“a gift granted by the king and queen is not a child’s toy, no matter how well they should treasure it. however, a gift like such to remind myself in times akin serves to show that even in my inability to say yes to an innocent child’s request, i can still say yes by gifting them another amulet even more special meant only for them.”

as ruthless as sooin was, there was a difference when it came to children. much more, children who had so little that all they had was what could be considered sharable to everyone.

tag, you’re it! location. spades kingdom horse stables @cwnseokmin​

one. two. three…

that’s it.

“this fucking sucks!” sooin groans out loud before she glares at the horse in the stable next to the one she’s currently sweeping hay out of. “this is your fault.” she states matter of factly before pointing an accusing finger at him. “i could be sleeping right now but you… you just can’t clean up after yourself huh.”

this was no way to spend a saturday morning when she could be down at madam kang’s bakery getting her fair share of discounted pastry goods. instead she was here cleaning up the royal family’s personal horse stable. what. a. joke.

okay, sooin didn’t actually have a problem doing things for the royal family. she served the king and queen after all (maybe she did mind serving the queen but it’s not like she really has a choice when she has to). she had a problem with whoever ratted her out to the grand officer about a small bribe she had taken to scare off a noble from his creepy attempts to court a lady who was tired of saying no. after all, it’s not like what she did was actually bad. she was helping her fellow citizens and protecting them. if anything, she should’ve been rewarded.

but alas, even the grand officer had to give her some form of punishment no matter how amusing he found the situation to be. 

sooin finally leaves the stable to find a wheelbarrow for the hay when she spots the iron nameplate of the horse’s name above the stable. baekgwang. why did that sound so familiar…. and then she remembers the grand officer stating that was the eldest prince’s horse. prince yurye. and her head immediately turns to seokmin who’s working in another stable.

“hey, isn’t that horse right there-” sooin points back to the horse she had been venting to moments before, “your prince’s horse? wouldn’t you prefer cleaning his horse’s stable?”

sooin asks curiously before a sly smile makes its way onto her lips, “or are you kind of tired doing stuff for him? it’s okay, you can tell me i won’t tell anyone.” 

and then another thought strikes her. of all the years that she’s known seokmin, he was never the type to get into trouble. especially for someone as dedicated as he was to his job. what reason could he have for being shoved into cleaning duty with her on a weekend? it was one thing for sooin to be there, it was definitely another for seokmin.

“seokmin…” sooin begins with an interested expression, “say… what did you do to end up with weekend cleaning duty?”

an apple a day, keeps mei at bay location. heart’s kingdom training grounds @cwnmei​

sooin is watching. silently. observing. debating. what was her best approach here? 

she tosses the apple in her hand, catching it before tossing it again. it’s a repetitive manner she keeps as she tries to figure what the outcome of each approach she takes will end up.

option a. if she verbally announces herself, it takes away all the fun and surprise. and who wanted a dull announcement of their presence? not sooin, that’s for sure. it definitely wasn’t her style. she always came in big and made herself known. so option a, no go.

option b. if she sneaks up, there’s a chance of her actually getting maimed with how she reveals herself after sneaking up. the chances of mei attacking her out of defense was likely even if she did realize who sooin was immediately. was sooin in the mood for fighting? not really. if she wanted a fight all she had to do was bug the shit out of royal advisor lee. 

and then she stops tossing the apple, taking a good look at the solid fruit in the palm of her hands. option c.

the apple was much more a fidget toy than a meal anyway.

pulling her thumb up to steady her aim, sooin raises her arm back with the apple firm in her hand before she throws it hard.

the next few seconds are a bit horrifying. horrifying but funny as sooin watches the apple fly past mei’s head and smack into another knight who just happened to be walking by.

“shit!” sooin swears out loud, hand immediately covering her mouth as she tries to figure out what to do. one thing for sure, she was having a good laugh.

sooin never was really adept with long range fighting. archery was the one thing she spent the least amount of time training on considering she enjoyed a physical fight much more and the satisfaction of throwing someone down with brute force. so the fact that the apple had completely missed mei’s torso like sooin had planned and completely wiping out a lower ranked knight… well, even sooin had to say she wasn’t surprised. 

“mei!” sooin decides to call her friend over instead of confronting the mess she had made, beckoning her over wildly with her two hands. hopefully her friend would spare her the embarrassment of dealing with the other knight.

[sooincwn]

the queen is a bitch  location. spades palace corridor @cwnkijung​​

to say that sooin is upset… is the least of it. she’s kind of furious actually. in fact, she’s never been more thankful for royal advisor lee’s intensive nagging interrupting a moment of time with the king and queen than that moment. because with his sudden burst into their private meeting, she’s finally able to take her leave. she actually almost makes it out of the throne room without a word when the queen calls out to her… staring at her with her deep, dark soulless - ruthless - eyes reminding her of the task she expects to be done.

knowing she can’t handle controlling her tone of anger in front of the queen and king, sooin simply crosses her arm across her chest before nodding in acknowledgement before turning sharply and storming away from the room.

“fucking hell,” sooin growls under her breath as she makes her way down the hall. 

of all the things sooin needed right now, the last thing was for the queen to ask her to follow prince kijung and report on his wellbeing to her by next week. what the hell kind of request was that? after all the rumors she had heard since becoming an elite knight, one had been that the queen didn’t actually care that much for the prince, kijung. she had actually treated another royal more like her legitimate child over him.

at first, sooin didn’t pay it much mind however after the few occasions that she had met the prince, she couldn’t understand why the queen would do such a thing. there was absolutely nothing wrong with him. truth be told, sooin thought he would make a much better ruler than his father (not that she had anything against the king - she much preferred him over the queen anyways) but that was probably because despite kijung’s status, he was actually a decent person. the last thing sooin wanted to do was spy on him. 

sooin’s grumbling over this by herself, turning another corner to head down to the training grounds and beat the shit out of a dummy when she finds herself face to face with the victim - kijung.

her body comes to an immediate halt and she dramatically bows, greeting him, “prince kijung.”

what was she supposed to do? 

she doesn’t want follow him secretly, when really she can just tell him and then spend time doing other stuff while being near him enough to consider it as watching him. should she tell him? he wouldn’t say anything to the queen right? after all, sooin only knew the alleged rumors of how the queen treated him. she didn’t actually know how prince kijung actually viewed his mother. despite her being a complete bitch.

but when has sooin ever been the type to withhold the truth when she wanted to tell it? never, honestly.

with her fingers crossed that this won’t come back to bite her in the ass, she apeaks up.

“prince kijung, if you have a moment,” sooin hurriedly says before he can get away. she scans the entire hallway and peaks around the corners of the ones intersecting perpendicularly before continuing. “there’s something i’d like to speak to you about, privately.”

[sooincwn]

hello! and welcome to my bad decisions post! this is sun (noh yurye) back here with my second muse song sooin! i honestly don't even know how to begin with this intro lol but here are the links for her pages! profile here, background here and plots page here! also thank you to everyone so far who has sent me a welcome message, you guys are seriously the sweetest! <3 and to try things out a little differently, drop a like if you'd like to plot with sooin if nothing on her page catches your attention or!! drop an emoji, prompt or genre reply on this post and i will write a starter for you!

- born to the noble song family in spades kingdom on 03/19/1998 - has an older sister by two years who passed the selection process, but left soon after when she got engaged to a noble outside of the palace - expectation was that sooin would follow in her steps and rise up to compete as well - sooin was fully prepared, always wanted to become a princess her whole life, and knew she would be able to because she studied alongside her sister - not long after she turns fifteen and is eligible to go through the selection process, her parents tell her that they've found a potential prince in the palace who she will get engaged to - this is the turning point for sooin because she knows the one thing she wants to be able to do for herself is find her own love (courtesy of having a very big crush that moved away before it could become anything) - she knows that the only way for her to get out of the engagement is if she doesn't become a princess because it's nothing more than a political marriage and she wouldn't have an actual reason to get out of it once entering the palace - so, on the day that she's supposed to go to the palace for the selection process, she goes to the knight's selection process instead! - she passes and is selected to become a knight-in-training and it obviously upsets her parents - the only reason why they still have faith in her and pride is because her sister's husband knows the grand officer who praises sooin's uniqueness in having trained knowledge of the noble lifestyle (that would help her serve royals better) - she quickly rises through the ranks because of her prior experience with noble lifestyles and hard work - once she catches the interest of the king because of the political jobs she also completes on the side (that are above her pay grade), she asks for a promotion and is granted the title of an elite knight - from then on, she primarily serves the king (and happily so based on the rumors she's heard of the queen being kind of ruthless) - although she's an elite knight, the jobs she does for the king are usually very low-key and have her go undercover - she spends a lot of time in town monitoring and observing nobles and their moves to gather intel for the king - because of that, a lot of the citizens think she's a second rank knight but also that she's kind of lazy because she's never doing any actual second rank knight work - (along with her fellow knights) others who have witnessed her actually working or from observing her can tell that she has to be a higher rank than a second rank knight - there are also rumors that she will do extra jobs for anyone (noble or not) for money. this is true. lol - the jobs can get pretty intense or just be simple low-key jobs, however, the only people she has killed have been under the direct orders of the king
