`exposed.

( `featuring: @haejungwoo ) 

there was no one that jiu adored more than jungwoo. even siwan did not receive the affection that jungwoo did. she wants nothing more than to protect him from the cruel ways in which the world works. but she knows she isn’t able to. 

she knows that jungwoo is just as she is. they sneak from the palace together often, each with their own agendas, yet they often seem to run into each other. they’ve read up on countless historic scrolls. they’ve done it all. 

but there are things that jiu isn’t sure she completely trusts jungwoo with. such as her situation with siwan. she glares at the scar on her palm, moving her hand in directions to see if it’s any less noticeable. but each angle only brings a new view of her scar. each angle only shows her mistakes. 

a puff of her anger leaves her lips, her hand laying exposed to all that see her. at least jungwoo doesn’t know.

flattery ;

@haejungwoo:

jungwoo sighed in mock exhaustion. “it’s unfortunately the latter. it’s that or it’s because this event has become to tiresome for the ladies to notice my charms.” he chuckles, looking over at his brother with smiling eyes. “and how have you been faring tonight?” he asks, raising an eyebrow. he wasn’t sure if woon liked coming to events like this, and frankly he was quite worried about the crown prince since he hasn’t seen much of him. “isn’t this a bit tiresome?”

“one would think that they’d be used to such events hosted by the family,” he commented lightly, trying his best not to sour the mood. jungwoo, as far as woon was concerned, was one of the siblings he could get along with, and that was just fine with him. he did not question it because there was no need to destroy good relationships out of concern for the could-bes and what-ifs.

“quite bored, brother,” he replied with a sigh. “and a little concerned for miyoung and siwan. i...know it is not my place to say, but i do have my doubts on their union.”

❝ I would look a little happier if I were you. ❞

wedding promptstatus: accepting

Hearing one of his older half-brothers speak to him in such a manner would generally be downcast, but he was particularly used to this older brother’s flamboyant attitude. In fact, Jungwoo was secretly one of his favorite siblings. Siwoo admired the free-spirited nature of his half-brother, although he could never be like that himself. The least he could do was learn to speak like Jungwoo, a bit playfully.

“Hyung-nim,” Siwoo greeted, turning his face to meet his. “You know you are the second person to tell me that tonight. Maybe I should practice my smile today.”

❝ Well? How do I look? ❞

“terribly good, i must say,” woon replies with mock graveness, and not as much envy as he’d like to let on. he likes to believe that he has a good relationship with most -- if not all -- of his siblings, and it would do no good to act otherwise, as if his mother hasn’t warned him enough against opening his heart to too many. even blood relations have their own affiliations, and their own loyalties, and he has to ensure that they lie with him, too.

“this is extremely unfair,” he finally laughs, stopping just short of smacking his brother’s back playfully. “have you wooed any ladies tonight, dear brother, or has everyone gone blind?”

`continued from here! ( `featuring: @haejungwoo  ) 

Jungwoo raised his hand to his forehead, playfully flicking his nonexistent bangs. His hair was in a tight updo since it was a formal event and a prince not looking his best was greatly frown upon, so his usual loose hairstyle that allowed hair to cover his forehead was gone. “Me?” he asked, tilting his head playfully at his older sister. “My name is handsome. Nice to meet you, beautiful young lady.”

another rush of laughter leaves her lips. jungwoo always has this positive effect on his sister. he always knows how to cheer her up. 

“well, handsome, it is a pleasure to make your acquaintance as well,” she says, her lips tugging up into a blinding smile. she slightly curtsies, unable to contain the joy her brother brings her. 

however, all jokes aside, jiu is worried for her brother. she knows there are things she may not completely understand and she does know that there are things that bother him. “jung-ah, how are you?”

❝ Haven’t I met you before? ❞

“why no sir- i don’t believe you’ve had the pleasure to meet me.” the words leave a her lips with a happy giggle. it’s happiness that only jungwoo could supply her with, happiness she will not allow to be stolen from her. not by siwan. not by a wedding that breaks her heart. not by anything. 

“im jiu- princess yi jiu. and what was your name?”
