There had been a pause in which Jaewon thought that Benjamin would just laugh off what had been said, maybe make a dumb joke about it. But, much to Jaewon’s surprise, that hadn’t been the case. Not initially anyway. Because Benji had actually leaned in and Jaewon’s heart had skipped a beat when he did. The moment of anticipation was nearly unbearable. Was Benji actually going to-? No. Unfortunately. It did make Jaewon think, however, that maybe he hadn’t been so stupid in believing that maybe his feelings were reciprocated? Or maybe Benji was just joking around. Jaewon watched as the other male covered his face, kind of laughed it off (which was undeniably adorable), and Jaewon thought he might have known what was up. Especially when his friend apologized and said Jaewon was probably just being stupid. The truth? He hadn’t been expecting a kiss, actually, but he was certainly flirting with the other man for a reason, “Alligators? I guess so. But do they really count?” He asked, lips curling into a playful little smirk, “Benji... are you trying to find a way to get out of kissing me? ‘Cause that would break my heart.”

@snstone liked for a starter!

"You ever feel the disappointment of being underwhelmed by something you were really excited for?" She's stirring her champurado with a wooden spoon, looking bland and resigned, "I just met a new private tutor of mine, a friend of my grandmother, he's supposed to be this big shot. Top of his field. I've read his books! And all he seems to talk about is how much he likes bread."

In a city that never sleeps, the constant hustle and bustle of mundane, everyday life can lead to overworked, overwhelmed, and lackluster lives that are only momentarily interrupted by the occasional inevitable tragedy or accident. Had it not been in such close proximity to her own job, Lucy wouldn’t have had any inkling there was a fire consuming several floors of some random office space until the evening news story that night. Because it was nearby, however, many neighboring buildings were evacuated as a precaution. From behind the yellow tape that was haphazardly stretched across all major streets from as far as a couple blocks away, the redhead’s impatience to return to her projects greatly lessened as it became apparent how serious this actually was.

At some point she started to hear the rattling of a reporter rehearsing for on-the-scene updates and even one of her coworkers was asked to give a statement like she was involved beyond observation. While most inhabitants of the affected tower were safely filed out either by emergency personal or their own two feet, there was one person in particular who chose to go up instead of down. Up onto the roof, in fact, making it increasingly difficult for firefighters to safely reach him through the several burning floors between them. Maybe it was the smoke blocking his view or whatever else, but his footing slipped to the horror of onlookers. 

What they didn’t expect was the bizarre, nature-defying and gentle lowering to the ground that followed, as if something large and hidden from the naked eye caught him and simply set him down. Lucy blinked, irises returning to their typical, glossy obsidian color, and she quickly folded her anxious hands behind her back. It hadn’t occurred to her at the time that most of her upper body was visible in the camera’s shot. 

That was several weeks ago, but the clip had been analyzed by so-called local and international experts that it almost seemed a permanent fixture in the daily news. Luckily, no one seemed to notice the weird bystander with random hand motions off to the side, let alone connect her with the “occurrence” as they dubbed the fiasco.

At least, that’s what she thought anyway. Sipping on her tea, the alien tried not to get too worked up at a television mounted overhead.

“What? Do I have something on my face?” He raised his eyebrows as he noticed Amaya moving closer and reaching out. “It’s alright. I can get it myself.” But that wasn’t the case. Hakyeon didn’t have a chance to look for a napkin before the other was fixing his tie that had been… apparently askew? How did that happen. He knew he was in a rush this morning but for him to be that bad? At least he wouldn’t be walking around looking like someone who didn’t know how to dress anymore. “… Huh.” For some reason he felt like smiling, butmanaged to resist by sighing and looking away by pretending to check his watch. “Thank you. I appreciate it. Now I don’t look ridiculous anymore.”

of course she had to fix his tie when she saw that i was a bit crooked. it didn’t really strike that bad but she figured that helping him with it would be for the best. her small fingers adjusted it perfectly and she pulled back smiling to him only to see that he was looking elsewhere and specifically at his watch. she tilted her head wondering if her action made him feel uncomfortable because she stepped in his personal bubble, but his words were opposite than her suspicion. scratching the tip of her nose she took a step back just in case. “you didn’t look ridiculous before! just, i thought you’d prefer if the tie looked symmetrical.” she explained the reason behind her action. “anyway, to what do i owe this pleasant visit? did you miss my pastries?!”

Starter for @snstone // Ursula & ???

“But.. the catch is... I didn’t actually ask for your opinion about it.” Ursula said before leaning on the couch, even to someone somehow close to her she couldn’t hold back that bitchy personality of hers. Rubbing the side of her head she sighed. “I just think it’s a good opportunity. We got married is a lame show, but still it will give me exposure.”

In Jaewon’s defense, he had warned Benjamin that it was probably going to rain. There wasn’t, like, a 100% chance of it happening, but it seemed likely enough to Jaewon that he thought he should bring an umbrella. And when he’d noticed that his friend hadn’t bothered, he knew right away that he was going to be sheltering them both when the rain started pouring. (Not that he minded, of course).

Sure enough, the agonizing hour of carrying around the umbrella finally paid off when the sky decided to open up. Benji hadn’t been the only person to not heed the weather forecast warning, though, as plenty of people were now ducking into stores and cafes and such for shelter. Those people, however, were unlucky to not have been accompanied by a totally awesome friend like Jaewon!  He popped open the umbrella and promptly held it up above the both of them, giving his friend a grin that said I told ya so.  “As if I’d let you die of hypothermia.” Jaewon replied, chuckling, “And whether you admit it or not, you were totally wrong. But it’s alright, because now I get the pleasure of saying I was right!”

Was it weird that he hadn’t noticed at first that Benji was holding his arm? It almost felt... normal? Even though it’s not like they’d ever found themselves in this position before this exact moment. But it’s not like Jaewon was complaining. In fact, he felt pretty comfortable. He probably shouldn’t have been enjoying the contact considering this was his friend, but he couldn’t help himself. “Well, if this was your plan all along, then I’d say it was a pretty good plan. You totally tricked me into sharing my umbrella.” He joked, giving a small laugh as he looked over at Benji, “Amazingly lame? Hmm... I dunno. Maybe. But, like, in a good way.” In a way that was undeniably endearing and totally adorable- even if Jaewon wouldn’t admit that outloud. Maybe the softness to his smile kind of gave him away, though.

starter for @snstone with sae

the joy of being a deity forever, was what sae was supposed to be enjoying, yet life hasn’t always been as easy as she would have liked it to be. especially when her dear niece was left to do as she pleased with her house in seoul. sae went home by opening the door, no luggage behind her, the only accessory she had were the dior shades. however, upon arriving home she noticed one thing, the house wasn’t as she had left it. the furniture were uncovered and someone had brought stuff in, “is anybody here?” she shouted while taking off her sunglasses. “whoever you are, come out, gather your belongings and get out of my house immediately!”

@lookitsohio / @snstone

Christian. Kuh-ris-chee-ahn. That’s how Lincoln said it was pronounced and that was how she was trying to pronounce it. Not that her accent (oddly both a little American and Korean depending on the word) was really willing to cooperate with her on this. But she tried to get used to pronouncing it as correctly as possible in the hopes of making a good first impression. Because even if Christian was cool, there was the chance he wouldn’t like her. Not that that would necessarily stop her and Lincoln from hanging out, of course, but she’d still rather that his boyfriend at least thought she was alright. He didn’t have to, like, adore her or anything. Even just thinking she was tolerable would be good enough for her. The problem was that she didn’t usually have a way with first impressions. The first time she’d met Lincoln it was when she’d worked herself into a fright while walking home alone one night and ran (literally ran) directly into him. She’d met another friend at work by nearly tripping the poor girl. And Wheein first met her while she was lying on the floor of the dance practice room, groaning in agony. She’d like to think she was better at second impressions... usually. Unless they involved accidentally spilling lukewarm tea all over someone or thinking things were going well then offering a lame joke that was met with that horrifying, polite, laughter of someone trying to be nice. “Kuh-ris-chee-ahn. Kuhrischeen. Crischeuhn. Christian.” She mumbled his name under her breath a few times as she walked. She was desperately trying to get herself to say it right without pronouncing it so slowly, one syllable at a time. But, nope. That wasn’t happening. Stupid accent. And now she was basically out of time to try to master it because the door was right there, just a short distance away, and she had no excuse to prolong this. But, oh god, what if she tried to make a joke or a bad pun or something and it just fell totally flat?!  No, Yongsun, think on the positives! Like the fact that Lincoln might be a good mediator for any inevitably awkward moments. And the fact that it wasn’t like they were in some nerve-wracking, public, setting was nice too. It should be a little more relaxed, right? And Lincoln had talked about Christian like he was the sun and the stars and everything in between- he was probably nice and a heck of a lot less intimidating than she was concerned he might be. It wasn’t until Lincoln was answering the door that her nerves started to settle. Hugs had that kind of comforting effect on her- even just short hugs in greeting like this one, “So, umm, I’m nervous but also kind of excited. I promise I’ll try not to be too awkward.” A joke. Kind of.
