racks and racks of clothing along with yixing. the cold is biting at his bones, his marrow structure deteriorates. the pyrokinetic was prone to the winter, he wasn’t in the mood for browsing clothing, let alone with the biggest realist whose out to get him and his dreams.
and sehun’s dreams are barely big enough to be crush and yet here he is, browsing, shopping with him.
sehun dislikes shopping, he doesn't know what to do, what to buy, he doesn’t enjoy things he doesn’t know. so he slumps and tears hangers off the racks and into his arms. of course he’s still bitter, his heart still carrying the weight of guilt. the weight of everyone’s lost physical parts of themselves weigh on him and it leaves a bitter taste to his tongue.
“have you ever thought, just maybe, if you weren’t a mutant,” god he hated saying the word aloud, it made him cringe, almost contorting his face. “life would be better, easier if anything.” and there he goes, letting a slimmer of himself out there to yixing, now all he can do is hold his breath to see if he takes it and throws it.
ᴍɪᴅɴɪɢʜᴛ sᴜɴ — no one said anything about doors being locked after midnight ( either let her in the house and/or get locked out with her! )
ᴡɪʟᴅ — beyond the weaving path of stone lies monsters never once known ( forest adventure!!! mutant animals!!!! please!!!!!!! )
ᴇxᴘʟᴏsɪᴏɴ — maybe if you stopped talking so much shit we wouldn’t be picking up burnt popcorn off every crook and nanny of this kitchen ( late night snacking attempt gone wrong ///: )
the rooming deal wasn’t too bad (which is something sehun has been chanting like a mantra to himself since he got the key and was paired off with she who must not be named, they one and only im jinah).
and it’s not very funny, not funny at all.
they start off drowning each other in the deep, dark, waters of a radioactive pool of hell left back in sunny peak. then he’s having his (infection’s) way with her up against the walls of an abandoned hospital. -- this all must be a sick fucking joke he tells himself. sehun and jinah, they work well when they don’t have to work together.
and yet, here he is, after the rather stressful and frivolous shopping rendezvous, chest tight with an awkward lump congesting his breathing. after the two of them kindly rekindled at the soulless echoes of the warehouse the ‘good’ terms they’ve been on (well, as good as the two of them get). his muscles weak from the rain and his bones aching from the rain, his fire almost put out.
he’s left timid, and unprepared for what is to come with opening the door to his new room.
“jinah, i’ve-i’ve arrived.” is the first thing he says when he (finally) has the guts to shove the key in and unlock what may be a hidden angry jinah, ticking away ready to burst at the very sight of sehun. “h-how’re you f-from today?” he asks, wary of jinah’s possible wrath. (as if he’s not consciously guilty enough after everythign he’s said, done, thought of her..)
to think that they’d be flipping into a new chapter of this rancid toxicity they feed off each other. guess not.
Inside this picturesque house, you will find a seemingly unending number of rooms; a den (with a floor-to-ceiling bookcase that encases an entire wall), a living room (complete with plush sofas), and a large dining room centered around a long dining table. There’s a kitchen with a breakfast nook for the early risers, and a door leading into an expansive backyard filled with trees and flora; through it, a winding path carved of stone disappears into the woods beyond. Back inside the house, a staircase that climbs to access a rooftop garden, between the ground floor and the roof are three floors dedicated to the housing of guests. Each room has two twin beds, two armoires and a half-bath with a toilet, sink and mirror. Showers are accessible by floor, with each floor having two full-size baths with shower/tub combos. Make things work, little ones.

A post on the upcoming cbox will be posted shortly!!
The bus arrives outside a large house; a humble bed and breakfast on the edge of the city lines. Soldiers stand post outside, flanking a large wooden door and windows haloed in warm golden light. The flickering of flames can be seen inside, though it’s nothing more than the blaze of a hearth. Each occupant of the long bus is escorted out, carrying whatever belongings each has managed to salvage. Quiet, cool, the air nips at hot skin; but the promise of a shower lies beyond the door, clustered between plush sofas and the smell of freshly-baked cookies. This is your December, enjoy it.
THE RULES
SOLDIERS will stand guard at all times around the grounds of the B&B; any attempts to leave without permission by mutants under level 2 will result in immediate relocation. YOU DO NOT WANT THIS.
THESE TIMES are delicate. :)
NEW ROOMS HAVE BEEN ASSIGNED to each occupant of the house; read the ooc guidelines below for more information.
HAVE some cookies.

( // it starts up, just like that. unanticipated. ) what the fuck? ( // you can hear the crackle of licking flames against wood, it’s not like sehun is unfamiliar with the sound. no not at all, it’s a good friend to him. but within the laxus house, within the confines of his home is where it burns. ) shit. shit. ( // he curses under his breath, a thought races past his mind. this building will fucking collapse sehun. his brain hasn’t registered the danger but his brain did in fact acknowledge another living being within the walls of the laxus dorm.)
( // he lacks panic, but then again he’s fireproof, in a sense.)
fuck, fuck ( // it comes out low, you could barely hear it if you tried. he’s running-- almost sprinting at how his calves internally burn. baekhyun was still in his room, he’s sure of it. and it makes his heart restless, beating at an unkind inhuman pace in fear.) baek! ( // he lets out once, a guttural shout into the blaze, a sheet of perspiration covers his forehead, the heat excruciating. the crackle louder.) baek! b-baekhyun! ( // he breaks back into a frenzy run, his eyes darting like a madman for his roommate. fuck, fuck, fuck-- his thoughts say. if he loses baekhyun he’ll go mental (if he hasn’t yet). )
( // when he sees baekhyun relief washes over for a very short moment and he’s flown to him. ) baekhyun! ( // he’s practically shouting, sehun is frazzled, the fires licking at him from the outside only trying to taunt him. and yet the only thing that bothers him is the question of his roommate’s life. ) are- are you okay?! ( // his words slobberish, a desperation in his voice. )
Destruction takes merciless hold before anyone is the wiser. Without warning, unoccupied rooms explode into flames; flames no amount of water can extinguish, as evidenced by the pouring of reserves from the sprinklers passing unheeded to the floor. The heat rises, and with it smoke, before distant booms ripple crackling glass. The explosions grow closer, driving each and every occupant out of their homes. Grab nothing but yourself and a single valuable; maybe a bag already prepared!! Anything more is sure to jeopardize your life, young one. There is nothing to be done but run, to escape the chaos engulfing every house; no exceptions, no pause. Before you make your escape into the streets of Gwangju, you spot others emerging, gasping for air with wet clothes and heavy hearts. Where do you go now?
THE RULES
SOLDIERS will appear on scene in three minutes; their orders are clear, evacuate to the transportation warehouses near the eastern edge of the compound.
DO NOT make any attempt to escape or re-enter the burning houses once you have exited.
IF YOU don’t exit, you die.
DO NOT deviate from the directions you are given, reinforcements are armed and are there to ensure that all mutants reach the warehouse in a safe and orderly fashion.
FROM THE WAREHOUSE you will be placed onto buses and removed from the facility until further notice. (We will be making a post in 24h. Thank you!)
OOC GUIDELINES ( MISC )
Attempts to reverse or alter the happenings of this event are highly discouraged, however, characters possessing precognitive abilities may message us for a hint of what is to come.
Feel free to preface any thread with your character being in the fire; as long as they do not stay inside, all will be well! The rules are a brief outline of what your character will experience after the explosions, so use them.
Yes, the houses are all decimated.
