pod eight

@❥ lucas han A slender figure can be seen approaching the door of the pod, one hand taking a hold of the door knob while she had hugged a hard cover notebook to her chest and just before she enters she takes a few deep breaths; it was to ease her nerves. Once she enters her eyes are looking in awe at how the pod was decorated, admiring the pretty colored lights here and there before making her way to take a seat at the sofa. The young woman brings one of the decorative pillows and sets it on her lap, the notebook she had held now being laid on top of the pillow. Having settled down on the sofa seemed to help her calm down, a determined smile curls on her lips, umber orbs staring at the murky colored glass as curiosity not piques her; just who exactly was behind it and were they truly the one? Or perhaps someone who would grow to be a very best friend.

The velvety voice of a male could be heard which snaps her out from her train of thought, giving a nod to his question. "Of course that's totally fine with me. I usually prefer it if people speaks casually or comfortably as they want. Nice to meet you by the way Lucas, I'm Seonbi. I hope it's not rude of me to ask so upfront already, but are you perhaps a voice actor? I say this cause your voice alone sounds quite soothing. Perfect for some ASMR I think."

@❧ lee sunhee minyeong adjusts her dress straps on her shoulders, somehow still focused on looking presentable despite not being seen by her date on the other side. she grabs her notebook to be ready to write any information about the other. "it's nice to meet you, sunhee." she speaks as she writes the name down. "well, I guess the first question I can ask is what do you do for work?"

@❧ park minyeong sunhee entered the pod with a bit of nervousness in her stomach. she was quite nervous and excited for the whole process of all of this. She lets out a deep breath as she settles on the couch and gets herself comfortable. she looks at the screen as she couldn't help but let out a laugh and spoke a bit shyly but with energy. "hello! I'm sunhee.... I'm actually quite nervous myself" she mutters with a laugh

@❧ yoon seonbi being hard wired to turn feelings such as nervousness into more positive feelings such as confidence and even adrenaline made it easier for lucas to approach people a lot easier ontop of being a naturally friendly and talkative person already. being surrounded by people and meeting new people daily made it easier.

but this was still a new situation, something he had never experienced before. he was sure that if he was nervous that the person on the other side surely was too. he waited a few moments to let the stranger get settled before he spoke up. "hello, i'm lucas." he started, voice smooth. "its easier said than done but lets speak comfortably, okay?" he added, a certain tone that he uses to comfort others while working peeking out.

@❥ choi sohee the tone of voice that calls out from the other side of the wall separating the pod in two is soft, pleasant, and enough to elicit a smile. he leans against the arm of the sofa he’s been sat on, waiting with legs crossed, and lowers his own voice so as not to sound overpowering in contrast. “nice to speak with you, sohee. i’m haewon. i don’t mind speaking casually - after all, it’s a date.”

he inhales, hands busying themselves as he thinks, though it’s only audible to the person on the other side of the wall when he opens the metal clasp of his wristwatch to adjust it with a faint rasping of the mechanism’s lock. “i should probably take the risk in volunteering information first. i’m likely a bit older, but i’m no stranger to reinventing myself - hence being here. what brought you to the show, sohee?”

@❥ kang haewon “hello?” he calls out with a voice gentle as autumn breeze, the calm tone highly contrasting the tumultuous nerves wrecking through his insides. with both fist curled against his lap, he gathers the courage to introduce himself. “i’m sohee, is it alright if we start off speaking casually?”

@❧ lee sunhee minyeong enters the pod, settling onto the couch after closing the door. she lets out a nervous breath as she stares at the colorful screen that is between her and her date on the other side. "okay, hi, I'm really nervous and I don't know why." she laughs softly before speaking again. "anyway, I'm minyeong, what is your name?"
