❛ konbini

Wonyoung came to the konbini alone after finishing her schedule. It was almost raining outside. She walked around the konbini to grab something to eat and drink. She finally took a cup of dried ramyun, triangle kimbab with tuna, a cup of ices, canned coffee and pudding for dessert. She paid at the cashier and moved to the vacant table provided. It was finally raining outside when she making her ramyun and prepared her drink. She took a seat by the window and started eating her food. It was such a simple dinner but a good one. She slurped her noodle and staring out the window. People passed by with their umbrellas and some traffic happened because of the rain. She enjoyed her simple dinner. It was calming here as the konbini was quiet luckily despite of the rain.

@kim jiwoong。 taking a deep breath and pressing her lips together, she reached out and grabbed the peach and apple rings in front of her. she rolled her eyes hearing his answer, she thought that there was no way he was so nonchalant despite how popular he had become since his debut. "a drink? like soju or makgeolli? i was thinking of getting that too-" she pulls herself back from the candy and starts making her way to the drink at the back of the convenience store. "mhm i did. i wasn't planning on staying long anyways." she found his question slightly odd, how else could she had come here? opening the door to the fridge, she took out a bottle of original flavored soju. propping the door open with her arm she asked, "do you want anything?"

@lee chanyoung。 "oh i see, that was smart of you. i'm glad they weren't giving you a hard time, because i know i might've if jongho came to us about going out so late at night," he laughs, shuffling back outside into the cool night. looking down at the tables, he glances over to chanyoung with a curious tilt of his head before shrugging. "let's sit for a little bit, if that's alright with you, i sort of enjoy sitting to enjoy snacks and conversation."

seonghwa takes a seat on one side of a nearby table, grabbing the creamsicle from his bag and opening it up. despite it being the middle of winter, he couldn't help himself but to have a frozen treat every now and then. he the corners of the frozen dessert before on it for a moment. "so, what do you like to do in your free time? i heard you produce music?"

@song eunseok。 he stifles back a little laugh for your sake, deciding to let you off the hook with any further teasing as they reached their destination.
i- you know, i could have just gone on a snack run for us if you were busy- whoa-!
he’s suddenly the one being pulled around, grateful he doesn’t trip over his own feet as he bows to the clerk upon entering the store.

@hong seunghan。 i didnt do anything
he mumbles before kicking the pebble that threatened to harm him, watching it klack to the side.
turning the corner, the konbini finally comes into view and eunseok lets out a low, deep sigh
alright, a quick in and out okay? i have a new anime episode releasing soon and I dont want spoilers on my timeline, plus, there's a nap waiting for me
unlike his previous demeanor, the older pulls seunghan with much energy; more of haste, into the small store

@song eunseok。 contrast to the other’s energy level, he was more than excited to be out and about - moreso just having missed the company of s and the freedom to wander around like this. he’s rambling about how pretty the sky is, how the weather is perfect, etc, when they stumble.
whoa-! wha- hyung, we gotta be careful-
he shoots a playful sulk at the blame but keeps his eyes on the ground now, looking out for any more loose pebbles.

@hong seunghan。 I'll let that title slide for a promised nap
Nods along to the list but little did seunghan know, his mind was completely blank from fatigue with the other's words going in one ear and out the other
Mmhm mmhm, youre in charge of remembering all that
He starts dragging his feet until a pebble slides against the sole of his shoe and he almost trips forward
Oooohoho- be careful seunghan what are you doing?
He masks his embarrassment

@song eunseok。 okay, grandpa- well, you can nap when we get back to the dorm!
he keeps his hold firm, convinced you might just flop over from lack of energy.
didn’t you want cup noodles, hyung? oh- and maybe you should restock on pringles!

@hong seunghan。 it's called napping before the event
His body wobbles from the contrast between the tug and his listless being, head swaying side to side
What were we getting again? Ice cream?

@song eunseok。 pfft- aw, hyung. how do you perform all those stages with such little energy?
he pulls his hands out of his pockets to link arms with you, mostly trying to tug you along.

@hong seunghan。 /trudges along the pavement while groaning, fingers finding lint in his pockets/
Aah, im tired already

@lee chanyoung。 it didn't take much for seonghwa to also start picking out sweets, chuckling softly as he watches chanyoung eye the options. he grabbed a bag of some sour fruity chews and a small box of chocolates - if he didn't finish them tonight, they would be a good snack for the next day. "ah- typical maknae stuff then, i see. i think it's cute, though," he smiles.

passing by the fridges of beverages and the small freezer of ice creams, seonghwa opens the freezer and grabs a orange creamsicle and tucks a bottle water in his arms as well. with his hands sufficiently full, he follows behind chanyoung to the counter. "you have a sweet tooth too? haha, i'll keep that in mind for next time." as the older set down his snacks, he inadvertently settled his hand on the other's lower back for a brief moment. once he caught himself doing the action, seonghwa moved his hand away with a clearing of his throat.

"if anything, i think your hyungs would talk your ear off about a late night date with a senior, no?," he smiled, hoping chanyoung thought nothing of the previous gesture. once all their items were scanned, seonghwa paid for the snacks and bagged them up.

@lee chanyoung。 "not a picky eater, huh. i see..." he trailed off, being lost in his own thoughts for a moment. he was much more accustomed to picking out snacks for his group mates, as the oldest and usually the most responsible, he paid careful attention to their tastes. but being left to pick out something for someone new made him antsy. his gaze shifted around the products in their current aisle - mostly salty snacks. his eyes then landed on chanyoung, trying to gauge if he was interested in anything.

"i like a variety of things, so i try to pick whatever i'm in the mood for," seonghwa continues. finally, his eyes settle on a bag of jalapeno chips, so he grabs it and continues on his way. "do you normally share snacks with your hyungs? you can just pick out whatever you'd like, i'll pay," he glances over to the younger and smiles. probably just his hyung behaviors showing themselves, but he did enjoy taking care of those around him when he could.

moving over another aisle, he scans the shelves of various sweets. he was tempted to grab whatever he liked, but he didn't want to stay up all night running on sugar, either. "i really love spicy foods, i love sour, i love sweets... especially chocolate. and i like fruity flavors," he chuckles to himself. "not a fan of coffee, though. i don't like bitter flavors, i guess."

@lee chanyoung。 unable to help himself, seonghwa reached up and brushed some of chanyoung's fluffy hair away from his eyes and leaned in a little to get a closer look, making sure the other could see. he clearly had rushed over here right after a stage - which the older found completely unnecessary, but appreciated nonetheless. "I was the one that was dragging my feet...rehearsals were crazy these past few days. But yeah, let's get inside."

seonghwa shuffled ahead into the convenience store and sighed in relief at the warm air hitting his face. he loosened his scarf and pulled his hands out from the sweater paws he had created before starting to make his way down one of the aisles of snacks. "You must be tired too, hm? What sort of snacks and drinks do you like?," he asks, eyes scanning the shelves for whatever would satisfy his cravings.

@lee chanyoung。 exhaling into the night air, seonghwa adjusted the fluffy white scarf currently wrapped around his neck as he made his way along the sidewalk towards the convenience store. it was a late night, spur of the moment, type of meeting. they had exchanged a brief set of texts once the younger had finished his promotions and thankfully, seonghwa had the night to unwind from concert preparations. he had spent minimal time making sure he covered up the dark circles under his eyes, threw on a comfortable sweater, jeans, and a wool trench coat.

he was probably more nervous than his junior. dating was always awkward - especially as an idol. and given that this particular group had already been through enough scandals in the few months of their debut, seonghwa felt a little bit more on edge to be responsible. tugging the sleeves of his sweater to cover his palms, he noticed a tall figure with fluffy hair standing by the entrance, so he smiled warmly and walked up to the younger and gave him a light nudge on the arm. "hey! i hope i wasn't keeping you for too long."

@park seonghwa。 [] lmao help it just entered it before i could finish KDNSKSKS

@park wonbin。 [ ] the way i got the notif i was tagged and was like ????

[] shakes fist at internet????

@kang mina。 his face lit up with an amused smile as she pulled his hood over his head, tugging his hood next to her hand as he shook his head to her question, "not really." jiwoong leaned over to level their eye contact and looked at the snacks in the aisle, then at snacks in her hand. "i was craving a drink," he confessed as he noticed her eyeing the candy, "but you're making me want to grab something sweet too." he reached over to grab a bag of choco churros that sat in front of her. "sunbae, did you come out this late alone?" he asked with a tinge of concern as he looked outside to the dark streets.

@osaki shotaro。 He didn't expect the other to help him pick up his scattered item but nonetheless, he was grateful, muttering a soft "Thank you." in the process. It was only when he pointed at how similar he sounded to someone printed in the pack of chips did he realize the items he chose were a big giveaway to who he really was. It made him regret taking goodies packed with labels and pictures of BTS so he could only nervously chuckle. However, before you could even end your statement and before I could even respond, a sudden flock of people surround him, making both males stand up hurriedly.

His eyes widened, emotions rushing in due to how dangerous this situation was. He had promised his manager to be discreet and yet his presence still attracted attention. He was still praying for anyone—his manager or fellow members—to arrive at this very moment to pull him away. "Oh!" Before he knew it, it was as if his prayers were answered in an instant, someone took his hand and dragged him away from the crowd, both of them dashing out of the store. He turned and noticed it was his company from earlier which made him chuckle as both of them were trying to lose tail of the fangirls. "Thanks! You saved me!" He uttered, both of them running as fast as they could.

@kim jiwoong。 looking at the candy aisle, shuffling through the different types of sweets on the display as there was a bag of seaweed chips in her arms. the ring of the door was a normal sound for all the patrons of the convenience store as she didn't bother to look up. she wasn't supposed to be here for too long in case of being recognized even if she was wearing an oversized heather grey hoodie that casted a shadow along her facial features. a voice pulled her out of her trance from staring at the candy for a bit too long. "huh?" she turned her head to look for the owner voice, her eyes widen in shock upon recognizing person in front of her. she quickly scanned the store before reaching over and pulling his hood back onto his head. "are you insane? aren't you scared of being recognized?" she asked in a hushed but slightly panicked voice in case if any fans followed them or if other patrons happen to overhear their conversation. even if it was late, there could be a chance they could be followed. "are you here for snacks too?" she followed up trying to remove the slight anxious feeling of his previous actions, turning her eyes towards the candy in front of her.

@park jimin。 His eyes widened when the victim of his clumsiness spoke, but he had no time to react when all of his items fell to the ground. He could have sworn the man’s voice was familiar. His doe eyes flickered to the less than unamused cashier and then back to the latter beside him. “Let me help—” he mumbled and crouched down to start picking up the fallen munchies, one of which was a bag of potato chips that had BTS on it. Failing to numb his curiosity, he pointed at Jimin’s face. “You sound a lot like this guy, dude. You could be a voice actor of someth-” He was cut off by a loud screech and flinched before looking around in a panic. A couple of girls stood by the cash register with their mouths wide open.

“I know that back anywhere. Isn’t that Jimin???”

His own eyes widened as they walked closer, trying to get a better look at the slightly shorter male, prompting him to stand up. “Nah you got the wrong guy- I wouldn’t get too close. He’s got Covid.” It didn’t seem to phase the girls as they started to crowd in next to the hunched male, tugging at his mask and shirt. He sighed and didn’t spend much thought in his next decision before taking the other by the hand and darting towards the door.

@kang mina。 the bells of the convenience store rang as he entered for a late night snack when he came across a familiar face who must have been a neighbor of his. "sunbae," he called out quietly as he leaned forward to take a good look at her face. he was hardly recognizable at 2am, his face obscured by his black hoodie, but it was ingrained in him to greet his seniors whenever he could. "funny running into you here," he said with a smile, pulling off his hood to reveal his flawless bare face and his amused grin, "do you live in this neighborhood too?"

@osaki shotaro。 While I was browsing through the selection of snacks in the shelves, I stumbled upon the aisle where the fridges were located. I noticed another person in the said aisle, seemingly lost in your own world as your hands were grabbing a bunch of drinks quickly into your basket. To keep my presence discreet, I simply focused on my agenda, turning my attention to the snacks on the shelves from across the fridges. I grabbed a few bags of chips and desserts into my arms, carefully treading behind the said stranger by the fridges. I had planned to go back to the store entrance to get a basket after noticing how many items I had taken into my arms.

It took me by surprise when you suddenly spun around the moment I was behind you and you bumped into me quite firmly. Fortunately, I caught my balance with the help of your grasp on my wrist before I could even fall backwards. However, all the items that I had in my arms had fallen on the floor. "Oh! No, it's okay. Uhm, excuse me--" My voice faded when I remembered that I had to prevent anyone from recognizing me. I then bowed my head immediately in an apologetic manner before crouching down to pick up the items that were scattered on the floor.

@park jimin。 it wasn’t a secret that living the idol life was hard. it was draining to say the least. despite all of the attention I was garnering, the endless presents, and the adrenaline rush I tried so hard to chase—there were times where I craved the silence I often took for granted before I became a trainee. since riize was still considered rookies, our managers watched us like a hawk, every action and word was under scrutiny and scored. but there were times like these where I would successfully evade capture and sneak out to grab some snacks. the cold silence was welcomed.

i smiled when some of my favorite drinks were in stock, my hands flying across the fridges as I filled my tiny red basket. satisfied, I spun around in my heels. but instead of empty space, I run into someone, hard, my hand jolting out to grab the stranger’s wrist. “Sorry! I swear no one was in the store when I got here-” I apologize, tilting my head to see if you were alright.

@osaki shotaro。 It's been a few months since I haven't returned to Korea. With all the tours in different countries keeping my group busy, it was also rare for me to get some time for myself. That is the reason why, once we returned to Korea, T took the opportunity—almost instantly—to ask my manager to at least let me purchase some snacks in the convenience store. That way I have some food to munch on once I'm in my apartment.

After begging for a few minutes, I was given a go signal and I immediately parted with our team to go to Konbini on my own. I stepped into the store, walking around quietly to avoid garnering unwanted attention. Since I was wearing a beret and facemask, I was hoping no one would be able to recognize me, atleast at first glance.
