∙∙∙ about

hanbin's a rather talented young wizard, something akin to a renaissance man. he's developed a liking to many types of art - literature, dance, painting, music, theater, and much more. more than anything, however, the one thing that hanbin is passionate about is magic. any and all types of magic fascinate him to no end, especially considering that part of his childhood was spent wondering why god had cursed him with magic, as his parents had put it. he spends his time learning new tricks and spells, be they simple things like his shoelaces never untying themselves, or his pencils sharpening themselves.

he has two part time jobs, mostly because he doesn't like being limited to just one thing - and those jobs are creating beverages at the local cafe as well as manipulating ink down at the tattoo parlor. his jobs evoke a rather peculiar change in hanbin, from smiling at everyone and everything as he offers them their coffee to hardly saying a single word as he inks his customers with copious amounts of eyeliner and rolled up sleeves to show off the several tattoos he's made for himself. despite the intimidation one might feel upon seeing hanbin work at the tattoo parlor, he's actually a very approachable and friendly man, only quiet due to the focus he puts into his work. he's very open, passionate, and driven in everything he does, but never forgetting to greet everyone with a small , friendly smile.

∙∙∙ background

to hanbin himself, he's not exactly the most remarkable wizard. there are some people of magic  with exceedingly intricate backstories that helped shape them to become the finest practitioners of their art, but hanbin doesn't particularly think that he's one of them.

he learned of his magic at a rather young age, when he'd accidentally burnt off the ends of one of his classmates' hair while trying to braid it. his family had taken him away from that city soon after, building a new life in another distant city, where no one knew of the boy who'd set someone's hair on fire. they'd teach hanbin how to keep his powers under wraps, rather than help him develop and strengthen his magic. it had always been something he'd disagreed upon with his parents - he believed there was no reason for them to hide, but his parents thought otherwise. they refused to let him practice his magic.

he'd instead start learning on his own, just simple spells to help him with some tedious day to day activities. mostly, his outlet for his magic would be his art - he'd bring his drawings to life with a few flicks of his makeshift wand, or he'd let his composed melodies take a life of their own, dancing and darting across the scales he'd written. he loved magic, even when it came to simple things like this, and he had no idea why his parents were so scared of it. ashamed, even. eventually, he'd gotten sick of their controlling behavior and packed his bags, making his way to the city of magic where he could finally be free to practice spells and be the wizard he was truly born to be.

∙∙∙ plots

hanbin the bard || (comedy, fluff, m/f, open) - upon discovering the existence of bards, those that use music as a way to perform magic, hanbin is absolutely determined to become one of those wizards. he's already been exceptionally good at music, but he takes this to the next level, singing and casting spells left and right, day and night. however, he can get kind of... Loud, and the walls in this apartment are awfully thin. you're hanbin's next door neighbor, and it's up to you whether you want him to shut up, or show him some magic of your own.

brews for you || (fluff, m/f, open) - you're a regular at blues & brews, and as a way of thanking you for your constant presence, hanbin decides to completely ignore every order you make and instead whip up some concoctions of his own, complete with a note written on the side of the cup. sometimes he even puts little spells in them, simple yet helpful things like cats will be friendly and attracted to you for a few hours, or you'll be able to get through the day without any typos. it's a rather strange way to make new friends, but that's just how hanbin is.

the duality of man || (, fluff, m/f, open) - you meet hanbin at the bar and are instantly attracted to him, what with his seemingly nonchalant, charismatic attitude and the ink littering his bare skin, so you have a one night stand. that should be the end of it, but a few days later, you head over to the coffee shop and find him, cheery and doe eyed and astonishingly friendly, nothing like the man you'd had in your bed the night before.

we meet again || (fluff, f, open) - you come across hanbin one day, maybe in the cafe or the beach or the streets, anywhere really - and there's something about him that feels strikingly familiar. upon introducing himself, you quickly realize that he's the boy who burnt your hair trying to braid it all those years ago when you were kids, the only reason that your whole head hadn't been burnt to crisps being that you were a person of magic as well. the two of you become fast friends, bonding over memories of the past and the present.

just some basic info you might wanna know if you wanna rp with ME? MY timezone IS GMT+8. Uh i prefer 3rd pov but i can do 1st too, it's up to you really since i'm pretty flexible? as for reply speed, that depends on my mood, muse, and if i'm busy or not. i can usually reply pretty quick though. please try not to poke me, i'll prolly feel bad and rush my reply and therefore deliver a less than satisfactory one so that's a no no.

Feel free to hmu in Pms if you wanna plot, I'm okay with winging but i like to have at least some semblance of direction (since my life has none i can make up for it here hahahaha) so i prefer having even the most general plot mhm! i'm nice and i don't bite unless i know you can take it so yay just hmu whenever!
