so.... how we doin' over here, chelle? just wanted to check in because, personally, i am being bombarded with got7 nestfest AND the day6 comeback AND eaJ comeback AND NOW MONSTA X COMEBACK. 🥴 i barely know what to do with myself. please say we can be overwhelmed together!!
I am sorry, did you say Day6 comeback?! 🫠 And eaJ? Ooohhh. I didn't know about either but now that I do, well my blood pressure is rising for sure!
Got7 has truly turned me feral once again, and as a multi-stan account, I'm trying to be very mindful of not just becoming an ahgase led blog - though let's be real, it kind of always has been 🤣
I was super excited to hear MONSTA X were releasing something new, but I'll admit I'm now less enthused knowing it's just a re-release of older songs whilst some members were enlisted. I get MX's sentiment with having remastered songs with all active members, but I was low-key hoping for something new before Kyun enlists. Tbh, I wanted sub unit songs and solos 🤭 I have a few friends who bias members who were away when MX was touring and releasing music without those members, so I'm happy for them to get their bias' voice in some of the songs they missed 🥰
Hoping you are doing well, despite the onslaught of groups we love. It's actually nice to be here in 2025, still getting content from groups who have been around for 10+ years. Some of the newer kpop groups don't appeal to me, or are far too young to fully invest in passed enjoying their music, so it's a comfort to know kpop isn't as temporary for some musicians like it used to be back in the day.
Oh, final tidbit- I recently reread the Spiritual Connection world and missed you dearly because of it 🩷🩷🩷
hiiii my love i miss you and i hope you're doing well 💜just wanted to drop in and check on you!
@noona-clock hi love!! I miss you too! I am doing well, just been pretty busy with work and family since my sister was just home on spring break. How have you been? Hope work hasn't been too crazy and you get some time to relax 💜💜
Hey everybody! Bee here!! Here’s another edition of the drabbles, courtesy of @noona-clock for supplying! Thank you, as always! You can find their original idea here! And so I won’t keep you waiting, I present to you Hong Jisoo! This one may also be a little longer than the others, oops.
Joshua: Servant
“And where are you headed so early in the morning Highness?” The innocent question from the stagecoach nearly had you jumping out of your skin. Did they know? Of course not! Right?
“Oh, um...I got an invitation from Prince Jeonghan. He and Soonyoung are having their bimonthly croquet game and I was invited to attend.” Not a lie, but also not the whole truth. You stashed a few bottles of the boys’ favorite bubbly in case you might have needed it later. “Please tell Jihoon to meet us there too. I know they like hearing him play.”
“Yes Your Highness. Shall I send for Seokmin and Seungcheol as well?”
“Send one to me, and leave the other for Jihoon.”
“Who shall I leave?”
“The one that Jihoon most likely won’t murder...” And then unanimously, “Seungcheol.”
“Yes Your Highness,” he bowed. “Have a safe and wonderful trip.”
“Will do, thanks!”
*
Jihoon’s notes might’ve been high, your spirits higher, but the tension between the two princes playing on the grass were the highest you’ve seen. Despite the quiet needed, you could hear the profanities they were hurling at each other. You and Chan were used to it, but you still couldn’t help but feel embarrassed that your faithful boys could hear them. They wouldn’t care, obviously, but it was probably just a royalty thing.
“Soonyoung wasn’t kidding when he said he was practicing.” Your raised your glass of bubbly in a toast. “To Jeonghan losing.”
The glasses clinked just as Soonyoung yelled, “I TOLD YOU I’D WIN.” followed by Jeonghan gracefully chasing him with his mallet and accusing him of cheating. Didn’t you just love being friends with someone who took losing so nicely?
“Should we call someone?”
“Nah, hyung wouldn’t hurt him on purpose. That and Soonyoung hyung owes me a horse from that bet we made.” Chan snickered as Jeonghan gave up and made his way to the table, letting the other prince live to see another day. Chan poured two more glasses which Soonyoung took happily and the other downed it pretty quickly.
“Aww hyung, don’t be a sore loser. It’s not everyday I kick your ass at this.” Soonyoung gave his famous smirk of a smile, very much like the one he had given you when you had met.
You raised your bubbly in agreement.“I’ll drink to that.” You loved Jeonghan, but you loved messing with him more. “Soonyoung, just for that, next time you show up to the castle, remind me to send you off with more of these bottles.”
“No respect in my home,” he grumbled. “What ever happened to that?”
“It’s a game,” Chan rolled his eyes. “You can always do a rematch. Good job hyung.”
“This is treason,” the eldest grumbled. “Even my own prince turned against me. I’ll have your heads for this.”
“You truly are something,” you shook your head. “Maybe I should stop visiting.”
“Oh please, you started visiting on your own accord and not because someone forced you to be social.”
“Maybe I had a change of heart.”
“Aww, did you finally decide to accept my marriage proposal?”
“The fact that you still have hope for that impresses me.”
“I’m nothing if not persistent.”
“Don’t you think she’d rather marry a winner?” Soonyoung butted in and Jeonghan sent him a glower that sent him into a giggling frenzy.
Well,” you stood up, “while you sulk in your loser-ness, I’ll be in the bathroom.”
“Of course you’re leaving so soon.”
“What do you mean by that?”
“Every time you’ve come for a visit, you stay for a bit and then you disappear.”
“I stayed for two hours watching your stupid game.”
“Hmm, yeah, that’s it.”
“What is going on in your head Yoon Jeonghan? Never mind, I don’t wanna know. Seungcheol, Do you have my other dress?”
“Another dress? Aren’t you comfortable in that one? Why so interested in changing?”
“And you care why? I am a guest here. My actions should not be questioned Goblin.”
“Okay, okay, Y/N. Go on up and change. Just be back so I can take down Soonyoung this next round.”
“No promises.”
*
After quickly dressing into your comfy clothes, you took the liberty of roaming the Yoon palace until you found what, or rather, who you were looking for. “Good afternoon Joshua,” you greeted the servant who was currently balancing a tea set.
“Oh good afternoon, Y/N. Lovely day, isn’t it?”
“Always. Here, let me give you a hand with that. Are we taking it to anyone in particular?”
“Just back to the kitchen. The King and Queen had just finished their lunch and Prince Jeonghan did’t want to be bothered today since he had a rematch of some sort, so I’m keeping busy.”
“Anything I can help you with? The heat out there is getting pretty bad and I don’t wanna go back, at least not until it’s cooled down.”
“You’re always so kind, thank you.” His praise sent your cheeks aflame and he left you speechless, but he continued on. “Actually, I need to grab a few things from the cellar and I could use the company. Would you mind joining me?”
“Of course not!”
*
“Careful, careful. Watch your head there,” Joshua’s soft voice warned you. You felt him grab your hands as he gently guided down to the cellar.
“I feel like I should be the one telling you.” You couldn’t help the giggle that escaped you. Casual as his touch was, it left you giddy. Here you were alone with a boy you may have had a crush on, and it was going so smoothly.
“Nonsense, I know this place like the back of my hand-ouch.” He had bumped his head on something, but you couldn’t tell what from how dark it was.
“Are you okay?”
“Perfect; a little bump on the head never hurt anyone,” Though you couldn’t see it, he smiled at you and you could hear your heart thumping harder than the horses clobbering through the the stone paths. “Okay, let me just grab some things for the kitchen and for the maid and we’ll be out of here. Oh and I can’t forget the prince’s gloves or his shoes.”
“Why does Jeonghan keep his stuff down here?”
“I’d like to think it’s because he has no room in his room, but I think he enjoys giving me a hard time.”
“Yoon Jeonghan? Making people’s lives hard? I wouldn’t have believed it.” The sarcasm falling from your lips came naturally, but you couldn’t help it. You loved him, you really did; this was just part of the relationship and if Joshua noticed it, he didn’t comment on.
You were aware that you were still holding hands even after you had left the cellar, and you also saw the lump on the boy’s forehead. “Uh Joshua?”
“Yes m’lady?”
“What exactly did you hit your head on?”
“It was probably something wooden. Why?”
“Well, you have a bump. So, let’s take you to the kitchen or somewhere so we can take care of that.”
“Okay. But I’m still holding your hand, you know, in case it still hurts.” He made the daring move to kiss your cheek just as-
“Well, well, well. Look at who we have here.”
“Your Highness,” Joshua immediately bowed and motioned for you to do the same, and almost panicked when you didn’t.
Busted. And by that devil like smile forming on his face, you knew he was up to no good. “Well, this explains so much,” he cackled.
“Your Highness?”
“Whoo, well this just made my day. And here I was thinking you had left and left poor Seokmin to go back home with Jihoon. And the dress Y/N, it finally makes sense.”
“Not right now Jeonghan. I’ll explain everything later.”
“Am I missing something?”
“Well, Y/N, do you wanna tell him or should I?”
“The bubbly has made you squirrel-ly Yoon,” you chuckled. “I’ll be sure to tell Chan not to serve you anymore while I’m here.”
“Joshua, my most loyal servant...do you want to know a secret?”
“Jeonghan, unless you want me to send Jihoon over with a mallet, don’t tell him.”
“Your Highness, is everything okay?” Joshua stepped closer to the prince who was merely staring at you with an evil like glee. He took a whiff and furrowed his eyebrows. “You haven’t been drinking excessively.”
“Of course I haven’t! It’s too early for such a thing!”
“Then what is going on here? Am I missing something. Y/N?”
Jeonghan’s eyes widened. “Oh man; you’re on a first name basis with each other.”
“Shut it Goblin.”
He looked so amused; he just couldn’t let it go. “Joshua, Y/N here is really a princess and at this very moment, I have figured out why she’s been visiting and disappearing.”
“Yoon Jeonghan, I will end you,” you promised with your fakest smile and sugary voice. Why wasn’t there anything in your line of reach that you could throw?
“I’m sorry...did he just call you a princess?”
“At your service,” you curtsied sheepishly. “And you, I’ll teach you a lesson about not meddling in other people’s affairs.”
“Ohhh, this is rich though. Wait until the guys hear about this.”
Ignoring the prince, you explained what you could. “I’m sorry I didn’t tell you. It’s just that, I really really like you and I enjoyed having you around-“
“I sense a but here.”
“Jeonghan, get out of here you insufferable-“
“That better end nicely Your Highness,” he sneered.
You took one of the shoes Joshua was carrying and threw it at him. “Go away. I’ll deal with you later.”
“Have fun kids. Ow! Keep it up and I’ll make sure we go to war Princess Brat.”
“I look forward to it,” you winked. He left mumbling some more nonsense about no respect in his home and where he went wrong with his decisions. And now to to face the other one. “Hi.”
“H-hi. Oh man. What should I do now? Should I bow because I swear I-I didn’t have a clue about who you were-“
“That was kinda the plan, actually.”
“But… er, Y/N… really?!” he stared at you in amazement because you’d come to him in servant clothes. He shook his head, still in awe.
“I didn’t tell you because I was having fun with you the way we were.”
“You we’re having fun helping me do my duties?”
“The boys over there are fun, but they’re loud and I liked knowing that I could be myself without the other royals. I really am sorry.”
“I just...can’t believe it.” He laughed abruptly. “And to think, I was ordering you around! Oh my god! Please don’t tell Their Majesties and have them throw me in the dungeon.” As if that couldn’t be comical enough, he fell to his knees, clasping his hands.
“Joshua get up. I won’t tell anyone.”
“Y/N, I mean Your Highness, you’re the best.” Without thinking, he kissed the top of your head and skipped merrily away. “Aren’t you coming?”
You smiled to yourself. This boy really was something else.
