@☾ kim yongsun ˢᵒˡᵃʳ /my nose scrunches up a little in a silent wince at the mention and I give out a small nod in acknowledgment/
Yeah, I read about that... It's been getting pretty bad lately. I mean what do you even do in that situation? Give them attention and a bunch of weirdos will be doing the same thing, don't and whatever happens ends up blowing in your face either way... It's damn creepy
/I shake my head a little, lips twisted in distaste before I focus back on the hot soup, blowing on it lightly before turning to face you again at the mention of the familiar name, expression changing into a curious grin/
Oppa? I sure hope you have something to tell me
/there is a light teasing tone as I knock my shoulder into yours, the obvious need for secrecy and discretion only increasing my interest as the screen is turned to me and my lips part in a quiet surprised gasp/
You sure do have something to tell me! So, is it like, official official? Doing couple pics and everything already
@☼ kim hanbin //kicks your shins under the table as you laugh at my misfortune, dabbing the napkins on my mouth and eyeing the juice suspiciously/
Don't even say it... even as a joke... I've been so paranoid recently, with all the sasaeng news popping up left and right. Did you hear what happened to Bella of Pandora? Some guy is camping in front of their dorm, stalking her, posting videos of himself and he is threatening to harm himself or her if she doesn't pay attention to him. This is mental torture...
//tucks my legs under myself as i speak, in a self-protective pose, eating in small bites as we watch, before shooting you a glance and then a quick one behind my back, to make sure there are no cameras here and the door is closed; i still lower my voice though, and turn up the volume on the video for good measure, no more interesting scenes left in it to discuss/
You mean... Minho-oppa? I actually... have something to tell you...
//brings out my phone from my pocket, again sneaking a look behind my shoulder, and pulls up a "selfie" from a locked folder, turning the screen at you, while angling my body in a way that the screen cannot be viewed in a crack between our touching shoulders/ https://i.pinimg.com/564x/ff/50/c8/ff50c87212d00c71d08fbfd44be67d34.jpg
@☾ kim yongsun ˢᵒˡᵃʳ /lets out a laugh at the the way you emphasize it nodding my head a little in understanding as I pick up a kimbap roll for myself/
Yeah, the camera angle doesn't always work for us.. gotta adapt, but sometimes we just need that one shot that we know will be *it*
/your laughing fit leads me into a similar state and my hand comes up to rub lightly at your back, laughing loudly as you hold onto the napkins/
We'd have to make something up for your dignity's sake... Let's say some anti sneaked in a poisoned your juice-
/even as I'm still snickering, my attention is smoothly directed back at the small TV, head shaking in amusement at the dancer's antics/
And can you blame them? This is what they're looking for! Chaewon knows it all too well... Wouldn't you eat it all up had it been a certain male dancer up there with you?
/my eyes carefully peek sideways towards you, just enough to curiously get a glance at your expression/
@☼ kim hanbin Me? I had to time it *per-fect-ly* with how fast the camera moved, thankfully we had a couple of shots.
//snorts into a laughing fit at your high-pitched "fan" voice, almost getting soup up my nose, and i reach for the napkins, laughing into them/
You will kill meeeeeeeee, shut upppppp. I don't want to die such a pathetic death. Can you imagine - death by soup. In a sweaty changing room. Dishonor on you, dishonor on your cow. Oh, look at Yeji's hand...
//points back to the screen with my chopsticks, to the moment where the dancer drags a hand from my waist down my thigh from behind, as is the choreography/
Look at her smug face, she is so glad with herself. She goes further and further down every day. The fans eat it up.
//comments idly in between stuffing my mouth with a kimbap roll and chasing it down with a slurp of soup/
@☾ kim yongsun ˢᵒˡᵃʳ No good to be skipping breakfast
/I let out with a shake of my head, blowing lightly at the soup and focusing on the tv as you set the performance up. We smoothly get through the first bit, the cute moment ripping a quiet chuckle out of me/
How long had you been practicing for that?
/I tease lightly picking up one of the juice bottle and bringing it to my lips before offering a nod as I swallow through the sweetened drink/
She's been doing really good
/I agree, eyes following Yuqi as you point it out, my lips parting into an amused snicker at the interaction/
I can already see the cuts and edits of that bit 'look at these two~ how adorable~'
/I mimick in a pretend 'fan' voice, tapping your arm with my free hand in a mocking playful gesture/
@☼ kim hanbin to be them. They can crack a window open.
//dismisses the hardship of the next occupant of the room with a wave of my hand, while also digging into the soup/
Oh, gosh i was hungry, i didn't have time for breakfast today... Okay, let's play it...
//fumbles with the remote a little, squinting through the first half, while munching on a roll, pointing at the moment i do the cheek push, clapping happily/
They caught ittttt!! Ugh, Eunbi's so cool here. She really owned this comeback, it turned out so greatttt. Okay, watch watch now... Yuqi said something funny to Chaey and she couldn't keep a straight face, watch...
//grins as the blonde breaks into a grin in the background and then motions the choreography cutely in tiny movements/
@☾ kim yongsun ˢᵒˡᵃʳ We're definitely gonna need you to manifest that very strongly cuz we haven't been doing too well so far... Maybe we're just up against the wrong people. Need a comeback that's not pitting us about against DIA
/jokes lightly with a playful nudge to your side as I point out your recent rack of victories. though I'm not too upset about the lack of wins as they do only mean so much, a part of me did genuinely think they might've had a good shot with the new EP. at least Jongin had managed a well-deserved trophy and not make it a complete flop/
Room's gonna be stinking for whoever takes it up next
/as I say it, I'm already helping you spread the bowls through the table and picking the plastic caps off of them, and very much thankful for the now shared weak breeze. I hum in response to your question, unwrapping one of the plastic spoons and dipping it into the hot soup/
Oh~ I think I noticed that, they might've caught it yeah! But ladies first it is, I'm excited to see that winning performance.. annnddd go!
@☼ kim hanbin Next time - you'll be treating me for a Janus win - putting this out in the universe, your last EP was iconic, I don't get how you guys haven't gotten any wins with it yet.
//huffs with a shake of my head at people's lack of taste, then looks around the room for any thermostats on the walls while you prep the table/
I think it's centrally managed... I'll ask unnie to note it with building management though, this is not okay. My sweaty pits thank you.
//accepts the pocket fan and plops behind the table as well, right next to you, facing the TV in the room, and after perching the fan on its holder, so we both get that flow, i distribute a pair of plastic bowls, plates, spoons and chopstick to each of us/
Yes actually - it's all in the middle, more or less, I want to check if the camera caught a pose i made, and then I wanna see if it caught Chaeyeonnie's shenanigans. So, ladies first then?
@☾ kim yongsun ˢᵒˡᵃʳ /I had been intending on being the one to get us food this time, but with Janus' recording being after DIA's I hadn't gotten the chance, and once I was out of the stage you were already on your way to get our order from the delivery guy. I used the time you were gone to ditch the white jacket I'd been wearing, both to avoid the heat and any possible food accident, and quickly dab away the sweat with a towel before switching into a simple black tank top as the stage outfit included no shirt of its own/
Taking note of that for when it's my turn to order
/I let out with a short laugh but am quick to push away a few scattered items to make space for you to drop the bowls on the table./
It is, even the AC isn't doing much.... Is it even working?
/questions as I turn towards the device, squinting a little at the small light before spinning a little in place to search for the remote, only to come out empty handed anyway/
Whatever, you can have this, let's just dig in before we're called in again
/shrugs, giving up on finding the remote, instead pulling out a small plastic fan out of my bag and pressing the little 'on' button before handing it to you. I also pull out a small rectangular piece that allows for it to be place upstraight on the table so we can use while we eat/
All ready! Any comments or opinions before we start? Anything in specific you're looking forward to checking?
/asks as I bring the gimbap rolls over to the table we'll be taking and sliding into one of the plastic chairs/
Hot hot hot hot hot hot hot hot h o t...
//swoops in the room with a bowl of something steaming in my hands, hurrying to drop it at the table and quickly blow on my palms, that had gotten a nice shade of pink from the heat/
One time - one time! - i decide to order us a hot soup to celebrate, and they don't let the delivery guy in. Gotta skitter around the corridors like a thief, did you know how many noses poking out of changing rooms i had to evade to get here unscathed?
//whines and plops on the tiny sofa in the backstage, undoing the belt holding the bright blue jacket together and letting the thick fabric fall off while fanning myself and checking for any sweat stains on my black tank/
If i stink - don't tell me, it's really hot in here today, isn't it? I feel like the whole industry has gathered in here today.
Anyway.
Fish soup. It will go well with the dry SBS gimbap.
//nods towards the tray of rolls left out for performers to snack on between stages/
