PAPER HEARTS -- A JinKook Headcanon
I just became ultra emo at my own idea about how Jungkook covered ‘Paper Hearts’ by Tori Kelly and how Jin always creates them!
Also, I’m too lazy to write a full fiction so it’s a hc
Also also, I say Jinkook but it’s not like a romantic ship this time
It’s the year 2020something, so this means Jin has had to enlist and do his 2 years army service
You know, the army as in not referring to the fandom
Because I think we can all agree
He’s done more than enough service for us :)
Of course, the band don’t want to release material as a 6 piece without their eomma
Who by the way, leaves us with a beautiful solo EP to keep us going
So they pursue solo careers and even sub-units to keep gifting ARMYs with music!
There’s Rap Mon and Agust D with more hot mixtapes
Not without a sub-unit of Jimin and Suga called ‘Mini’ though
[ Min + Jiminie if you didn’t catch that ]
Jungkook would definitely release a solo album, maybe even reaching different countries
I wouldn’t go as far as to say American debut just yet
But it’s definitely on the cards
He’s like a Korea’s Justin Bieber
I can’t explain it, he just is
There’s a Sunshine Line sub-unit [ V / Jimin / J-Hope ]
It’s called Sunshine, written as 선샤인 also known as Shine Line because someone probably made a mistranslation
[ tbh ‘Bangtan Sunshine’ has more of an edge in Hangul imo 방탄선샤인 ]
[ Bangtan Sonyeonshine?... 방탄선년샤인? ]
I also thought of ‘JJV’ because I wanted it to be like the CBX unit of EXO but that’s too much like JJP
[ lmao I say this as if I have control of their futures ]
Oh and V is obvs acting still and has snagged another role on a drama
It’s about the same amount of lines as Hansung but this character is more serious; he’s a troubled young man that the main character comes across and he shares his life story and it gives the main guy some sort of epiphany
Back to the main focus of this hc
and J-Hope will have dropped his mixtape that was so fire that it burned down an entire country
and either Suga appears on a track or they have a Sope sub-unit as well
Also, that’ probably WAY to much to happen in a year
idk maybe some of it’s stuff that’s being going on in the background in preparation for Jin’s leave [and the others’ leaves eventually too] and now it’s all being put in the spotlight
So Jungkook is alone in the dorm, which seems to be empty whenever he gets any spare time lately
Omigod! She’s actually gotten to the frickin’ point now!
The sunshine line are out doing recordings and promotions and fan meetings
Suga-hyung and Rap Mon-hyung have bought their own places and don’t live here anymore
They drop by when they can, but like Jungkook, they’re extremely busy
He decides the dorm is a little messy and he should clear up a little
‘A little’ becomes a bit more thorough as he finds himself sorting and rearranging almost everything
And his hyungs have all been working especially hard over the past few days because it’s time for promotions for their first release as a sub-unit
So Jungkook figures it’d be a nice gesture on his half to tidy and clean the other two bedrooms
Admittedly, there isn’t a great deal to do though because the guys still manage to keep their rooms in pretty decent shape
So he finds himself having a little nosey, mainly in the room that J-Hope-hyung has moved into
Because VMin boyfriends share a room forever of course
It’s only natural for Jungkook’s mind to wander to Jin-hyung as he takes a curious peak under one of the beds
Jungkook wonders how Jin-hyung is doing, hoping that he’s looking after himself the best he can, that the lifestyle isn’t too hard on him...
He briefly tries to imagine himself in Jin-hyung’s shoes in about 5 years time -- maybe sooner if he decides to go when Jimin-hyung and Taehyung-hyung enlist
But his train of thought soon drifts back to Jin-hyung specifically again as he glances out of the door, half wishing expecting his elder to be at the door like
“Yah! Jeonggukie! what are you doing in mine and Yoongi’s room!”
Jungkook smiles at the thought of his hyung scolding him and he returns to his own room since he’s finished his fair share of the chores
In his room, he feels a little cold, so he picks out a jacket hanging on a rail
It’s one he hasn’t worn in forever and it looks cosy enough, so he puts it on
Content with just the idea of laying down on his bed and relaxing, he does exactly that
He has a little think about the things about Jin-hyung he is most looking forward to seeing again
Which is everything to be really honest
Even the little things that sometimes got on Jungkook’s nerves
But I’m not gonna separate which is which hahahaha
Yet being his temporary mom at the same time
and the smooth ones he gives to ARMYs
To keep his hands warm, he places them in his pockets
And as you do with a forgotten jacket, Jungkook finds himself absent mindedly rummaging the pockets
And he can feel a piece of folded paper
Since he never really needs to write anything like lists or notes to remember things
So he takes the piece of paper out of his pocket
That’s odd, it’s a red piece of paper...
that Jin-hyung must have put in his jacket
After all, this jacket was used on stage
It was probably a back up plan to show off his charms on stage
Jungkook wonders if any of the other members have come across any paper hearts in their jacket pockets or just lying around.
I feel the need to mention that this is just for fun / to be a little emo [although my initial ending was much more depressing soooo]. Please don’t take everything I say ever on this post seriously.
I think I’ll add this to my fiction masterlist in case I do more like this
