@ᴀᴘᴛ¹⁰² chaeyoung p. 'I know, but it still tends to get to me. People with disabilities like me are often considered lesser than normal people, so their comments do hurt from time to time.' Mina wrote, her facial expression unreadable as she then smiled up at the other and nodded, allowing her to tug her over to where the phone was. She often hated it when people touched her, but Chaeyoung was one of the rare exceptions. 'We can dance to anything, really! You pick unnie!' She mouthed with an eager nod.

@ᴀᴘᴛ⁵⁰¹ mina m. the older walked over to the player and lowered the volume of the speakers such that the song was playing in the background. chaeyoung always had a knack of knowing another's discomforts even without the other verbalising it, and she could see the way mina's body had tensed for a while. "sounds good," she replied, smiling and nodding. "you know you don't have to bother about what they say, right?" raising her eyebrows, chaeyoung nodded in agreement and walked back over to the player where her phone was plugged into the system, tugging the younger along with her. "mhm! what song do you wanna dance to?"

@ᴀᴘᴛ¹⁰² chaeyoung p. Mina flinched a bit as she entered the studio momentarily, the loud music disorienting her and scaring her. Though she quickly swallowed back the fear and smiled surprisingly bright at the elder before she shrugged softly. 'It's so wonderful to hear you're well! I'm pretty good, for once! Today was actually relatively peaceful since I didn't have to deal with the a-holes at my job.' She wrote in her notebook, tugging her sleeves down a bit unconsciously before silently sighing. 'Can I dance with you?'

@ᴀᴘᴛ⁵⁰¹ mina m. chaeyoung had been in the dance studio for a while, having gone straight after her classes ended because she had brought her dance attire along with her. it had definitely been a long week and she was so, so grateful for a little reprieve she took in dancing. clad in a black pair of tights and a loose black top, she moved to play a new song on her phone, blasting it through the speakers. she had barely seen mina step into the room, partially because the music was overpowering and had gone over the sound of the door clicking open. shocked, she turned her head to the younger and smiled in pleasant surprise, pulling her into a small hug and patting her back. "mina!" she said excitedly, beaming. "i'm good, how are you?"

@ᴀᴘᴛ²⁰⁴ victoria s. (h) [] posting here cuz there's no dance studio. sorry my starter ;;

As soon as he entered the dance school, old friends were greeting him left and right, surprised to see his return. They were all old friends or members of the dance crew he used to be a part, back when he had been an avid dancer, even taking up the particular activity competitively. Spending some time to say hi and quickly catch up with everyone, Chanyeol then made his way to where he remembered Victoria's office to be. The establishment had definitely renovated their interior since the last time he had been here, going for a more modern and minimalist design. Walking past studio rooms until he reached the hall he was in, Chanyeol made a right at the end of it and then kept going until he reached the third door on his left. Just to make sure he was standing before the right office, Chanyeol looked to the name plate on the side that was plaqued to one side of the door. Song Qian, or Victoria as he knew her more by. He indeed was at the right place. He and Victoria were good friends, having first known each other through dance. Back then, they both just had been students and members of the dance crew run by the school, but now the latter was a instructor here and also a well-known choreographer. Raising his hand to knock on the closed door with his knuckle, Chanyeol cleared his throat to announce his arrival. "It's me."

@ᴀᴘᴛ¹⁰² chaeyoung p. It was Saturday afternoon and also one of Mina's rare day offs, in which she simply just didn't bother with anything or anyone and stayed locked up in her apartment room. Today, though, she wanted to do something different. So she put on gym clothes, long sleeve as usual, and headed straight to the said place. They had a little studio there where she usually liked to go practice her dancing or even just to stretch for a little. Upon entering the studio, she noticed a familiar figure also dancing inside and smiled, waving her hand to get the other girl to notice her. 'Unnie!' She mouthed silently as she made her way over to the girl and gave her a short hug. Pulling out her notebook afterwards, she scribbled in it for a moment then showed it to the elder. 'How are you, unnie? I haven't seen you in a while!'

@ᴀᴘᴛ⁵⁰¹ sommer r. /soft chuckles falls out from my lips as i saw an excited you waving your hands furiously before calling my name.
Hi Sommer- /i shake my head as a 'no', answer to your question after you led me into an empty space in the gym.
