@[p] kyuhyun "Thanks, Dr. Watson." she replies with an equally sarcastic tone, paired with the roll of her eyes as she returns the phone to its owner. "At least, if you're officially naming me as the protagonist and dubbing you as the sidekick." she laughs lightly, clicking her tongue as she seats herself beside the other. "Ah right, the love triangle troubles." she adds with a light chuckle, acknowledging the facts the other was bringing up. Nodding lightly at the comments he was making, she notices his natural skill of stalking -or put in better words, observing the situation and correctly deciphering it- in a good way of course.
"Yes Mercy," she chimes back with a playful grin, "I think I believe you're Adele now... or the song that SM brought for SNSD," she pauses lightly before finally remembering the song title, "Dancing Queen, right?" she giggles before finally dropping the topic, now questioning why she had decided to switch the conversation topic so suddenly. As the other whips out the photo, her smile drops into a light pout before she takes the phone from his grip, before finally settling into a frown. "So this is what you've been doing for the past few days, hmm?" she sighs lightly, acknowledging the truth.
She wasn't even doing to deny it. The other was too good at being almost everywhere at the right time, the coincidence that he had managed to be at two events where she had made one of the few worst mistakes, she wasn't even doing to try to respond, knowing that the other had enough photo evidence to shut before even having enough courage or any words left to reply back with. Cat-got-your-tongue was probably the best words to describe her shock, the words stolen from her own mouth as the other continued to explain the situation. Damn, well she was trapped.
Finally, the control of her own body seemed to return, only mustered the quick shrug of her shoulders, her fingers going up to twirl up in her brunette curls. "Then wha-?" she gets cut off as her prompt for the other to talk seems to work, the other continuing to explain how he had managed to catch the few snapshots of her at the nightclub and probably at the lotte world with Jonghyun as well. "Wasn't my decision." she was quick to defend her position, a huff escaping her lips as she crosses her right leg over the other, crossing her arms in a fluid motion before shooting the other a defeated glance. "In the end, using a couple 'concept' as a cover definitely wasn't the best choice." she adds with a sigh, fiddling with her curls as she traces back to the certain moment. "But /that/ wasn't my doing." she pouts again, her pale pink lips pursing together as her gaze slides over at the crumpled mass of paperballs on the ground. "Why do you happen to be wherever I am anyways?"
@[p] sooyeon Kyuhyun couldnt resist the urge to roll his eyes as he responded to her melodramatic rant with a wicked snicker "I cant believe I missed" throwing his head back like as if he was greatly disappointed by the fact the crumpled piece of paper missed its accidental target. "I aimed so carefully too" he added miscehviously, the words escaping his lips in a rather convincing dismayed sigh. He flashed her a cat like grin and upon seeing look towards the ground and huff, Kyuhyun quirked a brow and let his gaze travel down to the floor. "I swear there weren't that many when I started" he mumbled under his breath, his hand unconsciously rising to rub his nape, genuinely perplexed at the increased number of paper balls. The incident was soon forgotten the moment her fingers and carefully painted nails floral in its design, got a hold of the brunettes phone, eyes keenly studying the picture displayed on the flickering screen.
Finding the need to occupy himself while she observed the photograph, Kyuhyun let his fingers slide underneath a few papers where he had written a lot less nonsense, explaining why they werent joining the other endless mass of paper balls on the messy office floor. Disheveling his curls Kyuhyun read along the lines he had cautiously written in neat a hand writing. Still not looking up from the paper Kyuhyun responded "Took you long enough to figure that out Sherlock" his sarcastic persona clearly on a roll for the day. He only started to properly pay attention when she had started to speak of topics which aroused his curiosity. His head leaning on the hands behind his neck Kyuhyun replied "Ah yes, the Wentao couple, im surprised their still dating" he offered a careless shrug before continuing "Honestly, its not like Wendy's any better. Shes been spending quite a lot of time with Lay lately" he frowned at how the last two words got him a tad tongue tied. With the phone that slid across the glass table now in his grasp Kyuhyun added thoughtfully "Eunji eh? shes going through an apparent breakdown having broken up with Baekhyun, maybe thats why? Though I wont deny Tao was persistent"
With one eye shut and the other half lidded he clicked his tongue in slight annoyance at the snarky yet playful remark. "Mercy? Who do you think I am?" His tone of voice lowered by a few octaves, going slightly deep and dark signalled that he had been scheming, or simply put, he had succeeded in pushing some unfortunate idols into a chaotic situation with him pulling the strings in the shadows. After all, he wasn't blank for no reason. "It was more like he knew what you were, as in, he knew you were a paparazzi half way through the whole thing" the brunette suddenly expressed like as if he had seen eveyrthing. Skimming over a few pictures his thumb came to a halt over one specific photo she would definitely be familiar with. Still sprawled over his desk Kyuhyun held out a picture for her to see, one where a certain EXO rapper was pressing a kiss on a certain paparazzi who also coincidentally happened to be Kyuhyuns acquaintance. "You were careless, that kid had more of a brain than I had initially thought" he jut out his lower lip and nodded, amused. "You've been working overtime? With Jonghyun?" He questioned yet again, memories flashing back to Lotte World right on cue. "Some kiss" the brunette sneered digging his face into his hands. "Then sl-" the words to his sentence got stuck midway in his throat at the last statement. "I, have nothing really. I've hit rock bottom with my articles lately, even though most of it is backed up with photographic evidence" Laying his chin on the glass he glared at the wall "Its frustrating-"
Raising his head to face Sooyeon once more Kyuhyun spoke, like as if he had read her mind or he had thought a few steps ahead of her. "Oh and incase you were wondering, one, I was having a drink with one of our new recruits when I saw you and Tao at the club and two, I was stalking Hiroto, y'know that Japanese idol? at Lotte when I saw you and Jonghyun" a smirk graced his lips as he resisted the urge to add 'kiss' before continuing "So don't get me wrong" He was indeed living up to the title 'coincidental paparazzi' the brunettes eyes glinting rebelliously like a teenager who had broken a rule, the grin never disappearing from his face as he waited for a response.
@[p] kyuhyun "Oh my gosh-" a paperball seemed to whiz just inches past her face when she opens the door to her friend's office, making her gasp, suppressing the loud shout that wanted to come out just as her life flashed past her eyes -of course, the usual reaction from the melodramatic girl she was after all. "Yah!" she sends an infuriated look in his direction before pouting dramatically, huffing at the sight of the mass of crumbled paper balls strewn across the ground as she makes her way to his desk. "That could of been a painful paper cut right there." she completely disregards his supposed 'assassin attempt' as soon as he hands her the device, her manicured figures delicately taking the phone as she peers down at the photo.
It takes a while for her to readjust her vision, still dizzy and disoriented from her earlier nap. As soon as her vision clears her eyebrows raise at the sight of the APink vocalist in a embrace with the EXO rapper. A soft chuckle escapes , laughing at how stupid the two were to do such a thing in public. "The mall right?" she asks, not simply because she can easily recognize the background anywhere from her multiple visits there, but out of curiosity. She shakes her head in mock disapproval, sitting herself in an empty swivel chair beside the male. "Hmm..." she taps her chin for a moment before continuing, "Isn't Tao dating Wendy now? And Eunji... she's quite a cheater isn't she?" she laughs lightly before continuing, "Seems like she has quite a lot of ties between different companies," she observes with the tilt of the device, before laying the phone back on his desk.
Upon seeing the other yawn, she couldn't help but laugh once more. "Awww, is our lil' Kyukyu actually having some mercy for the idol's love triangle?" she remarks rather sarcastically with the shake of her head, leaning back in her chair as a smirk tugs up at the corner of her lip, noticing his tears -not out of sadness of course, but due to his quite prolonged yawn. "Last I checked Tao was drunk over me." she grumbles, rolling her eyes as she pulls out her own device. "But before I could publish anything, my lack of sleep got the best of me and someone else published the article...before I could." she exhales softly, playing with the ends of her hair as she thought, not even bothering to correct her strange speech. "You know- I never thought that paparazzi themselves could get into scandals." she shudders at the thought, shaking it off with the toss of her brunette curls. "I was stupid. Should've been more careful." She ignores her fragmented sentences with a sigh, "Gosh, I do need sleep." glancing back over at the male beside her, she raises a brow, "Well forget my sob story, tell me something. Anything."
At the moment, she was desperate to get the attention off of her and to shine the limelight on the certain photographer beside her. After rambling off endlessly -probably from her state of near insanity and aftereffects of insomnia- she needed to find something to distract herself from her current chaotic life.
@[p] sooyeon [] No prob, it isnt lame eue I couldnt do any better myself really, mines probably worse
Kyuhyun with his head settled on top of the palm of his hand, stared at the marble table his arm was resting against before diverting hus attention at the flickering computer screen. It had been a good few minutes since he had been aimlessly clicking on the mouse, blankly staring at nothing of any significance. Pushing himself away from the computer, he swiftly grabbed a pen placing its tip on a piece of paper, scribbling down a few words only after another five minutes and when an ink blob had started to form where he rested the tip.
Realizing he had written nothing but nonsense shortly after, Kyuhyun crumpled the piece of paper and tossed it towards the trashcan by his door, just as it opened, much to his astonishment. The paper ball missed Sooyeon by inches before hitting the wall and plummeting towards the ground, joining over a dozen other similar balls scattered on the floor.
"Nothing much really-" He responded reaching out for his phone, unlocking the device and selecting a particular picture which she might find interesting. "-except this" he finished, handing her the phone as he stretched his arms lazily across his desk, letting a sleepy yawn escape his mouth one so intense it left tears welling up at the corner of his eyes. On the display of his phones screen was the picture of Eunji and Tao locked in a warm embrace, the exact one he had sent to the rappers lover, Wendy.
@ the master stalker "blank" kyuhyun (( kk, excuse my lateness and lameness with this post XP))
Sooyeon really wasn't much of the type to slack off usually, but with her constant lack of sleep and her schedules continuing to pile up on her, sleep now was something rare with her sleepless nights and crammed schedules. The usual happy-go-lucky girl with that extra sass seemed to drain out of her, as easily as her energy slipping from her exhausted body. Just moments after she had flopped herself in her rather comfortable swivel chair at her private office, she was already snoozing off. She's only awaken moments later from a abrupt buzz of her phone, making her groan, her fingers fumbling blindly for her device.
Later she finds herself in her friend's office, hoping his energy would be enough to keep her awake. "So Kyu- whatcha up to now?" she rubs her eyes, sighing lightly when she reaches for her waterbottle to take a grateful sip. "Any new scandals?"
@[p] mai kuraki Sooyeon starts to bow back before the pale pink mark of a cherry blossom tattoo seemed almost as if to pop out from the other's skin, revealing the secret mark that the other had been trying so hard to conceal. formed a large 'o' before she quickly forced on a quick smile, "S-sure thing! I'll be sure to contact my manager first before we can arrange the er- photoshoot." It was strange to set up an immediate photoshoot at such a short notice, but it wasn't anything impossible for the mighty Sooyeon to handle. "Stylist? No problem!" she begins to shoo the other playfully out of her office, "Just let me make a few calls first, and get the event arranged for you then! Just give me..." she taps her chin before finishing, "A good hour or two! I'll just send a van over to pick you up and send you there!"
She maintains her cheerful attitude until after the other had left her office, the click of the door making her slump back into her swivel chair with a relieved sigh. Damn. This was going to be some day. Sooyeon grumbled incoherent words to herself, realizing that she had been locked out of her own computer. Quickly swiping the device off and cleaning up her desk with a fluid sweep, she dials a few numbers of a few of her favorite event managers and photographers before finally settling with a few close acquaintances. Nodding with content, she locks her office behind her, trailing down the line of computers to the certain female before leaning down to speak secretly with her, "I'll be going to get the shoot set up, it should take a few... When we're ready, the car will come to pick you up~ See ya in a few!" she waves one of her french manicured fingers before practically sashaying out of the allkpop office, swept off by the black van as it too her to her fate. Little did she know, that she was probably organizing one of the worst mistakes of her life.
(( otl, whut did i just write... /face palms/ just ignore me and my cheesiness mai~ >.< ))
@[p] sooyeon "I would appreciate that very much, sumbaenim." Mai spoke as she bowed rather deeply causing her hair to fall forward revealing a piece of tattooed cherry blossom petal that obviously lead to more of the hidden tattoo, which remained hidden due to her clothes. "Yes, sumbaenim, today would be perfect." She said with excitement as she shook the other hand happily before thinking about what her stylist said, "I actually like the natural look best~" Mai said as she caressed her face. Mai wasn't exactly proud of her body appearance but her face was the one thing could she could say showed her outer beauty. "But if you like, the stylist can do it."
@[p] mai kuraki "Uh-sure." Sooyeon answers quickly, mentally adding to her list of things to do. Dang, this girl really wanted to cover it. "I might be able to lend you some leggings or... black tights." she adds with a quick, but yet forced smile. Finally gaining the other's approval, a bright smile spreads across her face. "Sounds great! So will later on today be a good time for this quick shoot?" she stands up from her desk, offering her hand for the other to shake. "I can't wait for it then~ Do you also want one of my stylists to do your make-up for you or?" she gestures slightly at the other's face. "But I think the natural look definitely suits you."
@[p] sooyeon Mai studied the girls reactions as they talked, praying that things would work out in a mutual agreement. Upon seeing the new set of clothes, Mai face lit up with relief before instantly nodding, "Yes this...is fine, but stocking for the dress right?" She asked as caressed her thighs gently before happily stretching up and yawning quietly.
"I'm positive it will work out, I believe in the both of us." she stated with a simple smile, "I like sweaters haha so it'll work out well~"
@[p] mai kuraki "No really..." Okay fine, so she couldn't deny the fact that she was one of the most known natural ulzzangs out there, but she wasn't a uber popular model -that was for sure. Seeing how the other was so against revealing clothing, the model sighed, switching to other gallery with winter clothing. "Alright then..." she pouts her full lips, tapping the edge of her desk as the photos load, "How about this?"
"Will this work out?" she smiles lightly, chewing on her bottom lip, a bad habit she had whenever she was nervous. Dang, this girl really didn't want any scandalous clothing. That would mean for her having to dig into her winter collection... "Seems like I'll have to look into my sweater weather clothing just for you~"
@[p] sooyeon "Hmmm well in japan, when you look up Korean models, you always appear on the first search..and hmm kim shin yeon?" She Explained as the other was pulling up things on her phone. "Yes, please. My back cannot be exposed at all...", Her voice carried a sharp and serious tone, however she kept her warm smile for the other. "Ah, you think so?" she beamed as the other had picked out some outfits.
upon seeing the clothes, Mai couldn't hold back a smile. The first outfit worried her a tad bit, but she would have to see it in person before giving a complaint.
@[p] mai kuraki "Oh I'm..." she seems flattered for a moment, a ture genuine smile spreading across her face. "T-thanks! I'm only just a part time model however... I'm not /that/ well known." she flushes for a moment, pausing to readjust her curls once again. She nods as the other speaks, "I understand, nothing /too/ revealing. Gotcha." she winks lightly, pulling up a notepad app on her phone to type in the information. Glancing back up with a bright smile, she digs through her purse, coming up with her separate iPod, the device that held the majority of her wardrobe outfits, "I think I might actually have something fitting for this event..."
She flicks through the gallery, searching for the certain photos. "Ah, here." she shows the phone to the other, the photo being one of her old photoshoots. "You could wear this..."
@[p] sooyeon "No~ no~ the onwer of Kuraki company, wants you to model as well...due to you being rather popular in Korea as a model, and he felt that you could bring the ad for his company quite attention." She explained the best she could as she stretched her back gently before checking her phone for any messages from the owner.
With a hum, "Yup, I believe so and for modern Japanese it's supposed to be like what the Japanese actors and actress wear." Mai explained as she caressed her wrist gently as she thought of the shoot, personally she wasn't excited as modeling wasn't her thing. "Please don't pick something that shows the lower neck down to the waist line. like you know those V-shaped dresses?" She explained as she touched her shoulder blade out of a habit whenever she mention anything relating to her weakness.
@[p] mai kuraki "Uh... sure." she replies back, not quite sure what exactly to say. Finally reaching her contact, she chats over the phone with her manager, before calling her favorite photographer as well. "Oh! I'm so sorries!" she grins sheepishly, raising a hand to apologize silently at the awaiting girl. "Alright, thank you so much! Cya later then." she gushes over the phone, ending the call with a smile. "Sure thing! So for the costumes... it's only you being photographed right? I'll just try picking out something-"
Oh right. There's a theme. She takes the letter, sitting back down in her comfortable swivel chair, opening up the letter delicately. "Tradition and modern? What type of modern? Like the new hip hop casual style that k-idols are wearing now a days?" when it came to clothing, Sooyeon could become a fashionista.
@[p] sooyeon Mai was surprised watching the more experience model reaction, "Ah...it's okay you were busy. The head doesn't mind waiting periods, but today is the last day, so please and thank you" She spoke as she caress her hair trying not to pull up too much hair. "Hmmm, that sounds good enough...um Can I dress myself privately?" Mai said with a gentle voice, praying that her weak spot wouldn't be exposed. With a gentle yawn, she pulled out the letter explaining the theme of the shoot, fusion of the two cultures: traditional and modern.
@[p] mai kuraki "Oh gosh, I must of forgotten..." she flicks her screen to her email inbox, checking her emails quickly with the click of her tongue. "I apologize..." she gathers her purse, pulling out her beloved device, a pink bedazzled iPhone, the newest version of it in fact. "For pushing back your event so far..." she glances idly at the screen before flashing a quick smile. "Do you want me to set up the shooting scene ASAP? I can get my photographer over here and we can take the photos in my old studio." she offers, flicking her brown curls over her shoulder as she dials the certain number.
@[p] sooyeon Mai held back a gentle glare while listening to the other. In the back of her mind, she couldn't help but to feel that her patience would be soon, very soon tested. Her eyes widen as the other with the long lashes and perfect curls said 'Assassination'. Mai knew her father was much more careful then that, so she kept her composure but couldn't help but to tighten her jacket before making sure her hair covered her weak spot. "Like 2 months ago. The Kuraki company is trying to branch out in to Korea."
@[p] mai kuraki "Shoot?" Sooyeon's eyes widen in shock, being too absorbing in admiring her own reflection, she barely even paid much attention to the other's words. "Since when were we talking about my assassination?" she questions with an intimidating glare. Oh right, the modeling thing. Once the other had stumbling through her limited korean, her gaze softened, "Oh yes, the photo shoot." she continues, tapping her french tipped manicure against the desk, "When did you plan this event again?"
@[p] sooyeon Upon seeing her glance, Mai couldn't help but to feel intimated this wasn't her field. This was no where near her field. Mai consciously pulled back her thick long hair with a gentle sigh before humming. "I'm going to do a shoot with you...and I need a bit of training at the site...I just wanted to introduce myself, so that we could have a better time together." Mai was trying to speak clear and neatly the best she could as korean wasn't always her best language. With a hum, she looked up at the older before caressing her hair before twirling it around her long gentle fingers.
@[p] mai kuraki Sooyeon was buried in a pile of paperwork, snoozing peaceful on top of her folded arms. Hearing the knock on the door, she shifted, yawning before her head snapped up in realization. "I-erms." She patted her head, straightening out her perfect curls. "Come in~" she glances over at her dimmed computer screen, turning her computer back on as she inspected her reflection. Allowing the other enter her office she put on an extra dab of lipgloss, smacking her lips as she glancing up with an unamised glance at the younger. "Is there anything you need?"
@[p] sooyeon Mai had walked into the office a little more nervous than when she here to write an article of some sort; truthfully, she was much more nervous. The cause of her nerves were based on a request of her family. They wanted her to model to help their 'company' branch out into korea a bit more. Mai walked with worry before reached the room of Sooyeon, the model who was going to train her and do a shoot with her. She prayed that the model were allowed to get dress privately instead of being in the open, more so for the others. She wanted it to be a peaceful day, so she could get it over with and not have to worry about her family being upset at her for a while. Knocking on the door, she hummed a song that always calmed her nervous. "Excuse me, Sooyeon-Sumbaenim...are you in?"
