* ♪ – same but different
training for axis labels' drama feels a little bit like starting over. suddenly, despite training for nearly two years, he feels out of his element again. so much is new, and there's so much to improve.
there are plenty of differences, too, though. he feels lonelier than when he first started training under delta, despite knowing more people than back then, and plenty of his co-actors in cheer up needing extra work too. he knows it's probably just because he isn't stumbling through the early days of training alongside jinyoung, and he goes home alone.
but at least there's kou, and even though kou has never been in studio delta, he's always been a presence in joomi's life. neighbors first, then dead calm members, then trainees. kou is never the smartest man in a room, but he's sincere, and he knows joomi in ways most others don't.
he also needs to practice his dancing for cheer up, apparently – so they've taken the opportunity to train together after regular hours, just to make sure they can do the choreography they learned in lessons today well for tomorrow.
he wouldn't say they're exactly synchronized, but he doesn't think they're bad.
there are a few moves they clearly didn't match up on, though.
"this part, right before the chorus," joomi says, and he demonstrates one of the moves in question. "i think you have it wrong. unless i have it wrong? how well do you think you remember the choreo?"
