⊙ beta basics

@min yoongi Beta basics was one of the classes that Seungkwan always bunked without the teacher even noticing as he on days he would remove his name from the registration just to save the trouble. Even though he had no parents who actually cared about what he did. But that would just give them a reason to hate him even more. On the days that he would go to class all he would do was sleep, eat and throw spitballs at other students, giggling silently at them. He knew everything he needed to know anyway. That he didn't need a because he could not get pregnant- Meaning he could have more fun then those omegas who have to take cautions and .

I mean who needs kids anyway? They smell and ruin your own personally life. And makes you loose! Was it not better to get loose ually? ....That's what he would always think to convince himself. When in reality he was jealous. Jealous of the fact that he would never get his own child. He loved children since when he was a small child himself. He had always thought to himself that he would treat his own kid better then his parents. Pushing the thought away he shook his head and smiled as he looked into the mirror one last time. He had to look good for today's lesson in betas basic!

It was strange how he was so excited to go to class. Just because this new, cool, mysterious guy came strolling in he was interested. Not just that he was a total package! He was quite the never got a chance to find out what he was but got through with conventions. He was so happy when found out they were the same! This had to be a sign from the above. He had been waiting in class for him and was about to leave when he saw him enter. Putting his elbow up he shameless stared at him, burning holes into his neck. Minutes had passed and he felt eyes back at him. Instantly he blushed a deep shade of red and looked away. He had raised a brow at him meaning he probably had seen him staring for a while.

@β☣boo seungkwan it's only yoongi's first week in the school, and this class is already on the list of the places that he'd rather not go to if given the chance. however, the beta basics class is a compulsory class especially for new students. considering that students that have been in the classes for a while already know the important basics, it's not as important of a class to them. but then again, maybe this class would be beneficial for someone like yoongi. the beta has never delved deeper into information about his status, aside from the fact that betas are considered the 'lowest of society', and that they get itches instead of ruts and heats.

one thing, or rather, person, has been keeping his interest slightly piqued. of course, yoongi doesn't know who the boy is. he's not here to make friends and have fun. he's here to study and possibly get scholarships. however, this boy, yoongi notices, has been tailing after him since his second day here. yoongi knows he should be wary of something like this, but so far, the other boy hadn't shown any harmful signs yet. so far, all he's done was offer yoongi a pen when he was at the administration office and had to sign something, and pick up the class schedule yoongi dropped when trying to balance all his stuff.

the boy, unnamed, has cute pudgy cheeks, a wide set of eyes that follow yoongi's movements, and soft-looking lips that part in awe, or curiosity. yoongi catches those eyes flit over to where the older boy sat, and he raised a questioning eyebrow towards the boy.

Ryeowook sat back down again, biting his lip in confusion. This teacher was really something else. He couldn't quite figure out if he liked it or not. He got his book out as instructed and flipped through it to the right page. There were several pages before that that seemed interesting, but he figured the first day of class wasn't the best day to get in trouble by not following instructions. He flipped onto the last page of the chapter, deciding to read the questions first so he knew what to pay special attention to in the text, and then turned back to the first page to begin reading. Before that though, he glanced up at the teacher now grading papers and was quite taken aback by what he saw. He was grading papers, which wasn't unusual, but his eyes... there was something about them that made Ryeowook simultaneously want to hug the man and run away and hide. He tored his gaze away, not wanting to be caught staring, and began reading the pages they had been told.

A little while later when he was already deeply engrossed in the work, he almost jumped in his seat when someone suddenly spoke near him. He looked up with wide eyes, relaxing slightly when he saw it was the teacher. He nodded numbly, murmuring a 'thanks' and then watched the professor go before he managed to turn his attention back to the book again.

Peeking up at the clock, Ryeowook knew he had to swallow his pride soon. The class was almost over and there was one question that he just couldn't answer. He had read the section on the topic 17 times now but he just couldn't quite grasp the meaning. He wasn't sure if the teacher had meant he could come up in class or after, but if they had to hand in the papers before the class ended, he was screwed. He steeled himself and slowly stood up, walking to the teacher's desk. "Uhm, excuse me sir... there's one question.. should I wait until class is over?" he whispered, feeling painfully embarrassed.

@[SH] β☣lee♢minkiℋ Rummaging through his bag absentmindedly as he searched for a straw, Kento barely spared a glance at the window, before he finally found one of the many wrapped straws in his bag. Peeling the paper out and tossing it in the nearby trash can, Kento stuck the straw into the bottle with a hint of a smile, sipping on the drink as he read the note. As he did, a soft smile twitched at his lips as he held back a quiet laugh. It was easy enough, Kento never really felt as if it was difficult to accept someone's apology especially if they didn't know about it. 'It was pretty easy considering you didn't know about it before. I'm not a stick in the mud about it, so really. It's alright.' Kento scrawled on a new note after placing his drink on the ground. 'Thank you, and I am. It has been years since it happened. Same goes to you. Really? Class? The student in me wants to groan and ask if I can just not go.......kidding. Are you like, hyper aware when the bell is gonna ring or something?' A soft, genuine smile graced Kento's delicate features as he read the last part of the note. 'Sure, I might stop by soon. -K' Finishing the note, Kento stuck it on the window and he noticed the note underneath it. 'Okay. They're yours to take. - K' Kento stuck the brief note on the window and gently tapped the window once again. He began to pull his sleeves back down, buttoning the fabric at his wrists before picking up his drink, sipping on it. Sparing a small glance at the clock on his phone, Kento mused to himself. He'll stick around for a bit longer before heading his way. He would leave a good amount of time before the bell rings, he would prefer not to walk through the congested halls when everyone else was. No hard feelings, the likelyhood of people touching him, brushing against his slender frame would be higher and Kento would love to avoid that. He went out of his way to take different routes so he wouldn't have to deal with that exact thing.

@α❅yamazaki kento Patently, Minki waited behind the door that prevented them from gazing upon one another. Thoughts racing through Minki's head as he had so many questions and so many things to say, or otherwise, apologize for. It seemed to be less than a few seconds when the new post-it note had been, well, posted. His anxious eyes reading over each word splayed across the note. A sense of relief fell over the elder as he had felt like it was alright now, but a different feeling surfaced as he read the remaining pieces of the note. 'A bad experience,' his thought silently to himself, wondering what it could have possibly been. Knowing it wasn't his place to ask he decided to skip on from it, not wanting to cause Kento any unnecessary flashbacks. At this moment, he was almost stuck, not sure if he should continue or stop, but he decided to keep going. 'Well, I'm sorry that experience was ever placed in your path, it was an obstacle...something that probably-' Minki stopped and scribbled out the words, tossing it into the trash bin before beginning a new note. 'Alright, thank you for accepting my apology, I know it must not have been very easy... I hope you are doing better and stay healthy. The teacher in me says, get to class, but the stranger you've rarely met says, he hopes to speak with you again...you know...sometime. - M' Finishing the note, Minki laid it against the glass and began to collect the previous note, deciding to keep them. Pulling out his pen once more he wrote another short note, 'please don't take your sticky notes, I'd like to keep them. -M' Placing that sticky note on the window beneath the previous one he'd written he waited to hear the little 'tap' from Kento's index finger.

@[SH] β☪jo geunhyeong "is that all friends are good for? cheating on tests?" taking it into thought he clicked his tongue shaking his head while scrunching his nose,"then friends aren't worth it, if thats all that to it. i'd rather study honestly and fail while trying my best." tilting his head to leaning upon the palm of his head leaning his arm on the desk and sighs,"alright then." lower his gaze back down at his book, he focused on learning how to read korean so he'd be better off in the new country he lived in.

@[SH] β☣lee♢minkiℋ "No , sherlock." Kento mumbled softly as he read the other's note. 'Obviously.' Kento paused and a small smile tugged at his lips, leaving an amused look on Kento's normally passive expression. 'Let me put it like this. Apology Accepted' Kento underlined the last part as if it would emphasis it. 'Yep. I owed you one for that. So thanks.' Kento inscribed with a soft hum. Kento physically froze when he read the next question. It wasn't normal for people to question why Kento flinched. They normally said sorry and just looked at him weirdly. Calling what he had experienced when he was younger, simply a bad experience would be insufficient. But, Kento would prefer not to delve that much into it with someone he literally met last night. And that, made him feel like a hypocrite. Minki had delved a bit into his own problems, despite him being extremely intoxicated, but he still delved into them. 'Bad experience.' Kento paused, hesitating if he should stop it there, but Kento wouldn't want the elder to feel as if it was his fault. 'So it was technically not your fault. You didn't know. Don't sweat over it. -K' Simple, precise. And it seemed to leave no room for any argument. Kento thought to himself as he stuck the note onto the window, pulling his sleeves back slightly, Kento pulled a bottle of smoothie out of his backpack. As he twisted the cap off, his eyes landed on the teardrop scar on his right forearm. A soft sigh slipped past his lips as he stared at it with....what seemed to be disdain yet fondly. Disdain because what happened to him for it to be permanently on his skin, but fondly, as it showed he had survived in that period of his life.

@α❅yamazaki kento Minki was unsure if he should step aside from the window, not wanting to scare Kento away if he was showing himself. He waited in silence, his students of course whispering things about their teacher acting strange but then how it wasn't too different from any other day. Inhaling deeply, the teacher snapped his fingers and the babbling was silenced. When Kento replied to him, Minki stared at the words carefully, taking them in before beginning to write on his own. 'Wait, are you accepting my apology?' Minki questioned, hoping that Kento would accept it, knowing he shouldn't be worrying too much. 'Really?!' The beta added in, still possible confused but getting a little more information kept him satisfied. "Must have been a fight of some sort...or m-maybe he was going to be ..." the elder whispered to himself softly, disliking the thought of anyone believing was okay, even when intoxicated. Planting the note on the window, he bit on his lower lip before beginning another one. 'So, when I touched your head, was that because you felt like a child, or because of a bad experience? - M'. Minki was unsure of the certain feelings he was allowing to be released from himself at the moment. Usually his worriment was from his teacher's side, but this sort of worriment came from a personal prespective; not something the elder used often. Almost never. Inhaling deeply, the beta stuck the post-it note to the transparent glass, hoping he wouldn't be overstepping a line.

@β☪chittaphon leechaiyakul geunhyeong obviously didn't care much about his reputation. if it came to his attendance, he probably had the biggest amount of skipped classes in his group. or maybe among the school students. but he didn't care. he didn't give a single , however, lately he had became having troubles because of it and it looked like he would eventually be forced to attend those boring classes.
"well, friends are helpful when you have to write a test and you know . group cheating is always more succeesful than solo", he shared with the other probably one of the most important life advices. at least for lazy students such geunhyeong.
listening to ten's nickname's story, he nodded, not feeling that having some new questions would be a good idea.
"my parents have never given me a nickname which wouldn't be an embarrassing one. so let's skip this subject, okay?", he said with a soft chuckle.

@[SH] β☣lee♢minkiℋ Out of the corner of his eyes, Kento saw a sticky note being placed on the window. Worry flickering in his eyes and Kento glanced at the note. Pen already moving as he scrawled on the next note. 'So I'm assuming a simple Apology accepted wont work?' Kento paused, pen becoming still and a hint of a smile twitched at his stoic lips. 'I'm fine. Well, thanks to you, I didn't go home with any injuries, so that's a plus -K ' Kento finished writing and mused to himself. Perhaps that was enough? Kento knew the elder must have been curious about what happened the previous night. Besides, if the teacher didn't help, Kento could see himself going back to his dorm room with at least a few injuries, minor but still injuries. Having being taught to treat minor injuries, Kento would rather avoid any sort of scuffle as much as possible. Quietly sticking the note onto the window, Kento couldn't help but chuckle softly to himself. How odd must it be for the students to see Minki just pasting notes onto the window, really. Kento should have chosen a better time, perhaps when Minki wasn't in the middle of class. However Kento felt like he should clear things up with the elder as soon as possible. A soft sigh leaving his lips, Kento mused to himself, he best not bring up what the elder had said last night. Kento was worried, but it wasn't in his place; Minki only said those things because he was drunk, not because he trusted the younger.

@α❅yamazaki kento Minki absentmindedly began to write down the things he did yesterday, trying to remember what all could have possibly happened the previous night. 'Damn, what the hell did I do'. He questioned mentally, sighing externally as he sat up a bit and began to think about it a little more than he probably should be. Deciding to throw those thoughts away for now he glanced at the door as he heard little taps on it. Normally he would go after the prankster that would do that, but there seemed to be a note. Standing, he ventured to the door and read the sticky note, seeing the K and wondering who it could have been before it clicked. 'Kento?' He questioned, already making that apparent with the previous words the note started out with. Turning on his heels to grab a pen and note pad, Minki glanced to the students whose eyes had been wandering. "Continue working," he commented, pointing to the groups who had caught his attnetion before going back to the door. 'I somehow still feel sorry, I can't help but feel this way.' Minki wrote before glancing at the other's note once more before finishing his response. 'I'm fine, are you alright?' - M. It was odd to have a student be worried about him, maybe the other was only asking about his head and not the things he could have possibly spoken about the night before. How terrible that would be, he opened up to a student who already had enough on his plate as it was. That was only a thought by Minki, believing that Kento had enough on his plate, maybe he didn't, but the teacher didn't know.

@β☪yao mingming Opening it he nodded and threw one last note at you. 'Okay ~ thank you for free treat XD'
I then giggled quietly and rested my head on the desk and my eyes pretending to write notes.

@β☣boo seungkwanℋ -peeks back at the reply and nods-
-writes another note and tosses it at you-
Sure, sure, donuts after.
Just stop throwing things or else we'll get it trouble.

@[SH] β☣lee♢minkiℋ () finally replied eue not that long but its there orz

@[SH] β☣lee♢minkiℋ A soft sighs left his mouth as he stares emptily at the board. His mind flew off somewhere unreachable and he just didnt really care. He used to love reading, all kind of books especially the ones with myth and legends. But somehow he stop doing the thing he like go do the most. He was shaken awake by the school bell, quickly reach his bag when his action immediately stopped by his teacher's words. He sigh again, slumping down his bag and sit back down on his seat. Thousands things across his mind. Did he do anything wrong? Or did his score reach rock bottom? He could literally feel himself getting the cold sweat. He did well in his last test and assignments too. Or did he?

His heart almost stopped when he hears mr. Lee call him out again, just to tell him that he was safe. He bit his lower lips, doubting whether to tell the other what going on his mind or just shut his mouth. He fiddles with his fingers for awhile, thinking of pros and cons of telling the teacher and before he could finally reach his answer, his mouth speak on its own, blurting out the things he been wondering. "How can we trust people?" He ask in a soft voice, but loud ebough that the teacher could hear him. His gaze quickly fixed down to his fingers, afraid to look the other in the eyes.

/enters the room quietly /

@β☪yao mingming waiting for an reply, I file my nails and hum a small Unknown tune. I look up and find a paper ball on my desk and pick it up. Reading through it, I pout and nod while writing another reply. Throwing it back at you. "Okie dokie ~ but after this lets get donuts! ^^)

@boo seungkwan -squints at you a bit and looks back at the teacher's board-
Hnnn...
-looks at the paper, then looks over at you-
-throws another piece of paper at you-
"Entertain yourself, we're in class. ><"

@β☪yao mingming Gets another spit ball ready to fire at you but stops mid way as I lock eye with you. I give a small forced smile and lift it down as I wave. "Hi"
Five minutes I chuck a scrunched paper at your head. When you turn around I point at the ball.
It's reads 'Dude I'm bored...entertain me'

@boo seungkwan -sits at the back of the class too, looking like I'm falling asleep and not paying attention-
-looks around when I feel spitballs hitting me, and listens for the sound of constant ripping paper-
-peers over at you and sees you launching the spitballs-
...

@β☪yao mingming Strolling into the class, he took a seat right at the back of the classroom so he could distract other people. Taking his notes book out, he stretched his legs out on the front chair and ripped pages of blank paper out from his book. Making some spit balls he shot them all at Ming, giggling silently as he looked around for the culprit.

@[SH] β☣lee minki Kento was simply laying in his bed, just shifting his body from side to side as he couldn’t go back to sleep. Kento rolled over to his back to the door when he hearing the knocks. If it was anything important they can just say it there. To say that Kento was surprised would be an understatement when he heard the voice. He hadn’t expected Minki to come back so soon, or at all. Kento slowly rolled over, staring at the door in confusion. ‘Why...was he apologizing?’ Kento thought as he stared blankly at the door. This, was a first. Most of the time, when other people touched him and he flinched, they would just be ‘Oh. Sorry.’ but, an apology like this? It wasn’t something Kento was used to. Kento remained silent as he stared blankly at the door, his ears picking up the departing footsteps. “Why are you blaming yourself? Really, you’re just going to make me more worried about you.” Kento muttered to himself as he shifted his eyes to the ceiling. “I’m gonna have to clear it up with him. ‘Stupid when it comes to dealing with other people’ How can you be stupid if you are unaware.” Kento continued to mutter as he got out of bed.

After cleaning up his unkempt appearance, Kento grabbed his bag and headed out of the door, dully noting that he had time to spare before his classes started. Kento had been absentmindedly walking around on school grounds taking in the scenery and he paused in mid step. His eyes staring into a classroom whose students were talking amongst each other and a very familiar teacher sitting at the desk, head laying down. When Kento stared at the window itself, a small idea came to mind. Kento quickly walked to the window, pressing himself against the wall that would hide him from their line of sight, Kento rummaged through his bag, pulling out a sticky note pad and a pen.

“Wasn’t your fault.. You didn’t know.....” Kento started to scrawl and paused, writing the next few words a bit smaller than the first phrase, “are you okay? - K”. Kento finished and carefully stuck the sticky note against the window, words facing into the room and tapped his finger against the glass, leaning against the wall so only the sticky note was seen. This...was an odd way of talking to someone, but if it worked, then it works.

@β☪jo geunhyeong "i see now. well that sorta ...there is no absolute reason for me to ditch any of my classes given to me if they were to care about absences and it would give me a bad reputation....especially around others...aigoo...i need to gain some friends if i am going to survive this world..." scrunching his nose in distaste, he watches the other's reactions quite closely while nodding as he chuckles softly at his mistake,"you are right. it does indeed sound like honey....oh honey honey~....ignore that...but....you're 20? wow you're around my age~ I turned 20 like a few says ago...." his lips curved into a frown as he lowers his head shaking his head,"nah...i dont have any friends....i just....i remember my old family members calling me ten for short..."

@kim ryeowook Minki plucked the sticky-note from his head once the latter was done and tossed it in the trash. "Ryeowook, xaos pack, piano and sing..." Minki summarized it, locking those as notes in his brain to keep Ryeowook individualized just like the rest of the students. "Perfect. Be seated." He stated before rubbing his face vaguely and ruffling his locks of already messy hair. "Open your books to page one-hundred-and-thirty-seven. You'll be reading that chapter and doing the review for all the questions listed." Minki hummed, inhaling deeply before climbing off his desk and beginning to write the assignment on the board so if someone needed it they could just glance from the bored and not Minki. He placed one earbud in his right ear and began to grade various other papers. His face resting calmly, eyes still different but held a common emotion in them; sorrow. It wasn't an unknown feeling to Minki considering he felt it most often.

When students began speaking to one another he held up his right hand before saying, "strike one" the students instantly stopped talking. This was Minki's way of preventing students from cheating or speaking to one another during work time. He disliked talk and hated when students were distracted. A moment or two later he raised his head to check the students and glanced at Ryeowook while standing up. His hands meeting each other behind him as he threaded toward the male. Bending his legs into a crouching position he glanced at the male's work before speaking. "I know it's rather odd to get an assignment on the first day of class. If you have any questions, any at all, just come to me. I'll be more than happy to help you." He hummed, catching the latter's eyes with his own before slowly standing and waltzing back to his seat, continuing his work.

@[SH] β☣yim youngjun (damn it, I'm sorry, it's long ;n;)

@[SH] β☣yim youngjun It hadn't gone unnoticed by Minki, that a student of his had seemed a little distant from the rest of the class. Of course, there were times that all students appeared that way, but this student seemed to be a little more distant than the average distant. His thoughts began to race of all the kinds of things that could have possibly happened to this young man, his mind ticking away as to what it could be. It wasn't his business and maybe he shouldn't ask and he knew he wouldn't. He had his own way of asking, and that was not asking at all. After class was over he knew he would have to request Youngjun to stay after. Even if it was unnecessary, Minki wanted the young man to know he was always open to listening to students and wouldn't feed them bullcrap advice. Silently, the elder man sat in his desk, mind pondering until the bell rang and snapped him free from it all. "You're all dismissed, except for Yim Youngjun. Please stay after, do not bother standing, I have to speak with you about something." His low voice emanated throughout the room as a few of the immature students acted as if Youngjun was in trouble, which he wasn't. The teacher sat at his desk inquisitive to what might be running through the latter's head at the moment, but he said nothing until every student had disappeared from the room.
Shortly after, Minki stood from his resting place and closed his door, slowly trudging back to his desk. "Now if you think you're in trouble wipe that thought from your head. You're not in trouble. I only want to tell you something." He stated, now leaning against his desk while crossing his arms over his chest. "I've noticed you're distant from the others... I'm slightly worried about you. As your teacher, I think it's alright to be, as a stranger...maybe not, but as a person who knows what it's like to be distant I'm inquisitive. You don't have to answer this, but if you want to you may. Why do you think you're so distant? Maybe it's not that. What's happened to you that has made you this way? No one is distant because they want to be..." Minki chimed, grabbing a timer and starting it at thirty minutes, his body shifting from the desk and going back to his chair. "We can sit in silence if you'd prefer it? I don't expect any answers, but as a mentor, I would like to understand all my students. My focus is on you now..." he mumbled loud enough for the male to hear it. "I will grade papers and such, feel free to speak or do anything you'd like...except leave."

@β☪chittaphon leechaiyakul "of course you can leave. no one can force you to attend the classes. but i don't think they would ignore your absences. they don't ignore mine at music classes so with beta basics i don't believe it would be different", he said, by some miracle holding back the soft chuckle which wanted to escape his lips so badly. and it was just because the way ten had reacted. yes, geunhyeong wasn't perfectly fine with each classes he had taken up, but most of them were only his mistakes. or maybe not, maybe it was teachers' fault that he started to hate some of the subjects.
"hyeonnie. almost like 'honey' with hard korean accent. and i'm twenty", he scratched his cheek while giving the latter a new information about himself. even if the thai male hadn't asked for any. at least not directly. "good. it's nice to have a nickname. it makes you a little cooler in others' eyes. like it gives a positive vibe, let people know that you have friends and stuff."

@[SH] β☣lee minki Ryeowook's eyes were locked on his notebook until the door opened again, fifteen minutes over time. He looked up to see a man with a sticky note on his face, and he frowned, wondering if the guy was so easily distracted that he needed to put sticky notes on his own face to remember things. At first he thought it was another student, but when the guy climbed on top of the teacher's table he realised it was the teacher. He sat in stunned silence; that guy did not seem like a teacher at all. He blinked when the teacher pointed at him and asked him to stand up. So much for being invisible... He stood up and bowed to the teacher. "My name is Kim Ryeowook, I belong to the Xaos pack. I play the piano and sing," he said, looking up at the teacher to see if it was good enough. The post it note was still stuck to his forehead and Ryeowook thought he could make out his own name on it.

@kim ryeowook Upon reaching his own classroom fifteen minutes after class was already supposed to be started, Minki plucked the sticky-note from his forehead and read it twice to make sense of it. "You have a new student who is named Ryeowook, make sure he feels welcome." Mumbled the elder man as he stuck the note back on his forehead just in case he would forget again. Opening the door he took one single step in and heard nothing but the scrambling of students. He placed his things lazily against the wall before tiredly climbing on his desk like it was hard work. "Alright," he cleared his throat a bit before snatching the sticky-note from his forehead again, "we have a new student. Where are you new student?" he questioned just as his onyx orbs seemed to have laid themselves on the unfamiliar face. "You" Mr. Lee pointed his left hand's index finger at the young student before he flattened out his hand. "Stand up, please, introduce yourself. Name, pack, an interest of yours." The ebony locked male chimed, placing his hands on his knees while waiting for the young man to stand.

@kim ryeowook (no dear, it doesn't <3 I will reply now)
