Hello friends, Muffin reporting to Rookies with my first and probably only muse. I will give y’all a brief summary about him and then under the cut, I’ll be providing some plot ideas. I’ve arranged the plot ideas from the good, the bad, the ugly and the truly atrocious. The number of trigger warnings may increase as the list goes on and if you are uncomfortable at any point, just stop scrolling. Please IM me for plots. I have a twitter @_mafiosoo but I am faster on tumblr.
✧ Nov 16th, 1998 (I decided to age him up a bit)
✧ Born to teacher father and stay-at-home mother. While his parents are unremarkable in their achievements, Kyungsoo’s grandfather with the last name of Lee is the CEO of a successful jewelry company. His business is expanded to other parts of Asia and specializes in jade. Kyungsoo’s grandfather is a very traditional man and valued sons over daughters. Unfortunately, his wife gave him no sons and instead, three daughters. The youngest daughter was disowned for getting herself pregnant young, the eldest daughter was an ambitious woman who made a name for herself and the middle daughter/Kyungsoo’s mother was the sweet one who wanted to marry. Since grandfather had no sons, he values his grandsons very much and Kyungsoo has never lacked for money. However, he would rather spend what’s his and not what’s given to him. One day, Kyungsoo hopes to build his own business empire - one even greater than his grandfather’s.
✧ Key personality traits: Ambitious, decisive, charismatic (when he wants to be), perceptive, meticulous, distrusting, insincere, persistent and possessive.
✧ Timeline information under the cut due to the abundance of trigger warnings.
✧ Quirks: sensitive to scents (please tell me what your character smells like when we role play I mean this in the least creepy way possible), fluent in Korean and Chinese (Mandarin), intermediate in English, plays violin, taps his fingers on the table when he’s anxious, high alcohol tolerance, doesn’t take heat well, cannot swim, is insecure about his height, excellent driver
tw: dietary restrictions, violence, obsession, stalking, blackmail...I don’t know if I am missing anything, please let me know.
Crossed out plot ideas are taken!
✧ Ages 0 - 15: Really good student, never made his parents worry about him for anything. He was legit the type of kid who’d get up in the morning by himself and make his own overly healthy breakfast + lunch. Straight As, participated in school clubs and never allowed himself to indulge in anything he shouldn’t. Did not mix with those popular kids and mostly made friends with smart people. Was likely not bullied because even though he’s a small guy, he’s got a lot of intensity. If a kid tried to grab him by the collar in public, he’d grab the kid back in the throat in private.
✧ Ages 15 - 19: High school was going smooth at first. By this point, Kyungsoo was on his second girlfriend and on the student council. He was exactly where he wanted to be in life and would have continued enjoying himself if it wasn’t for the appearance of that person. Obsession was a dangerous hole to fall into and the more he tried to crawl out, the deeper he sank. His parents eventually saw the hundreds of sketches he drew of that person and forced him to go to China and finish high school there.
✧ Ages 19 - Current: Kyungsoo is back in Korea and feeling in control again. He’s in college, back to being his model student self. He helps out grandfather in his spare time and plays the dutiful grandson. He is pretty sure at this point when grandfather finally kicks the bucket, he and his cousin will both get a decent sum.
Plot ideas
The Good:
✧ Family relationships: Kyungsoo is an only child but I am open to him having cousins on both sides of his family. If you choose mother’s side, you will have to share my grandfather Lee plot and go to those annoying rich people parties with Kyungie. 2/2
✧ Positive influence: Someone my hardass of a son can actually look up to. I am looking for someone who is really successful in one aspect of their life and has a gentler personality. Maybe your character sings really well or dances beautifully. Either way, something caught Kyungsoo’s attention and he actually admires this person. He will be somewhat willing to listen to this person’s advice and rely on them a bit emotionally. 0/1
✧ Friends! I am so new that Kyungsoo literally doesn’t have friends right now. Somebody come and help me out here. I gotta at least have SOMEONE to call if Ksoo ends up passing out somewhere. I am hoping he can have some friends from his past and some friends from now. I am also interested in the idea of a trio, like, three really good friends that were always together. Maybe one knows why he was sent to China and one is completely oblivious.
✧ Tutees: Kyungsoo tutors on the side to make some extra $$$ to fund his appetite for expensive watches. He can tutor your character or your character’s siblings and they can get to know each other this way. 2/2
✧ It starts with an accident - your character or my character accidentally hit/cut/somehow hurt the other person. A friendship could blossom from this?
The Bad:
✧ Remember earlier when I talked about a kid who tried to grab Kyungsoo by the collar and he grabbed that guy back in the neck? Anyone wants to BE that kid? They could have had a lot of past issues and can try to resolve them now. Or maybe the past problems will continue forever and turn into a feud.
✧ It was supposed to be a casual hook up but your character ended up having some feelings and this relationship won’t end well.
The Ugly:
✧ Current obsession: Kyungsoo was obsessed with someone in the past and after a few years in China, he feels like he is okay now. Jokes on him though because I am 100% willing to let him slide back into the hole and get the same sort of feeling towards someone new. I prefer a girl for this role.
✧ Mutual sin: Someone who knows about Kyungsoo’s past obsession and probably the only one besides his folks that actually knows who the object of Ksoo’s psychotic love is. Kyungsoo can know something bad about this person too and they can mutually blackmail each other.
The Truly Atrocious:
✧ The Past Obsession: Of course he’s not over it. He doesn’t see his fault as much as he sees what happened as the other person’s fault. The reason I want to put this in the truly atrocious section is because unlike the current obsession, Kyungsoo harbors some resentment towards this person. He feels like this person made him leave Korea and this person made him crazy. That said he also really liked this person before. In the beginning, his affection was probably pure and he’d just want to stay close to the person without talking to them. Then eventually the stalking, lusting and drawing stuff happened. It’s good Kyungsoo went to Korea because otherwise, I have no idea how things would have ended. I prefer a guy for this role because Kyungsoo’s parents would have panicked harder.
