@♀ seo jiyoung『ᴊᴀᴅᴇ』 //the stupid grin on my face was still not gone even as I watched you walk inside the dorm, waving my hand when you turned around. Stares at the closed door for a moment before turning around, making my way back to the parked car to go back home, humming in happiness all the way back//








[Thread end]

@❀ jeon minjun『ᴀᴄᴇ』ˢᵒˡᵒⁱˢᵗ *presses my lips together, sharply exhaling air through my nose*
This is not over.
*turns on my heel and dramatically opens the door with a flourish, stepping inside with my head held stubbornly high, but right before I get inside, I turn my head to look at you over my shoulder as if to check if you're still there, pressed lips barely containing my smile, before I tug the massive door behind my back and lean on the heavy woodwork, turning the lock behind my back and hearing the distinctive click - this is when I allow myself to smile*
Idiot...

@♀ seo jiyoung『ᴊᴀᴅᴇ』 //can't help but let out soft laughter as you whine, quickly leaning back in to land a quick peck on your lips and just as quickly I lean back//
Hmm? Yes, princess?
What were you saying~?

@❀ jeon minjun『ᴀᴄᴇ』ˢᵒˡᵒⁱˢᵗ *leans in, my eyes closing slowly... before suddenly blinking open again, when your lips brush not over mine, but against my cheek*
Wh...
I don't...
Jeon Minjun!
*all but thumps my foot like a petulant child*
You did not just... do that. Get right back here!

@♀ seo jiyoung『ᴊᴀᴅᴇ』 I always think about you though...
//mutters under my breath as I take my jacket back, now it has a mixed scent from my perfume and yours, a little smile on my face//
Mmh, glad you had a great time, princess
Will text you when I get the ticket for the movie for our next date.
//eyes widen at your request as my face turns bright red. Clears my throat before leaning in to kiss your cheek instead of lips, feeling that it would be too soon for that//
Good night, beautiful princess... sleep tight and have a sweet dream tonight, and maybe we could meet in your dream, too.
//grins cheekily as I pull away, taking a step back while still facing you//
Go inside first, I'll leave after making sure you are safely arrived in your dorm.

@❀ jeon minjun『ᴀᴄᴇ』ˢᵒˡᵒⁱˢᵗ Yes. Good. Actually, and this is a secret - I enjoy the surprize more than the gift itself, really. Just... knowing you thought of me.
*wobbles a little on the balls of my feet, searching your face for something, removing your jacket off my shoulders to offer it back to you*
I did too. And I'm looking forward to us repeating it too, you had planned a great time in every aspect.
*a little pout wrinkles my lips as I watch you move to step away, voice not loud but clear in the chilly air*
So, I don't get a goodnight kiss?

@♀ seo jiyoung『ᴊᴀᴅᴇ』 I only said I know what to get you, but not saying which one that I will get for you.
//my face turn red at the sudden intrussive image but quickly shaking it off and was glad that it was quite dark so probably you wont notice it//
All your favorite stuff... maybe one day, I can be one of them~
//stops right before the steps to your dorm, feeling a bit disappointed that it has come to an end. Tucking my hands inside my jeans as I look at you, trying not to show my disapointment//
Mmhm, you should get inside. Its still very cold. Thank you for tonight, Jiyoungie. I had a lot of fun, i hope you too. Sweet dream tonight

@❀ jeon minjun『ᴀᴄᴇ』ˢᵒˡᵒⁱˢᵗ I do, so much, ah... Well, don't ruin the surprize now! But they have garments and fragrances and pearl jewelry too... such beautiful lingerie sets... I guess you should get me one if you wanted to s--... anyway, yes. Beautiful sets. Beautiful jewelry. Mhm.
*starts my usual flirty tone, but quickly cuts myself off, as this may be way too much right now, and I didn't want to cross any lines; clears my voice as we crawl towards the steps up to the front*
Yeah, exactly!
*laughs cheerfully at first, then quickly tones down, as it is late and quiet and I shouldn't disturb the neighbourhood; then firmly shakes my head, resolute decision*
No. Everyone has their own life to live. I can gander a peek, but it's not mine to take. I only take what's mine and what's mine will always come to me no matter what. Plus, I like my life. It has all my favourite stuff in it.
*grins, climbing the couple of steps before the door; turning to you right as I finish my sentence, finally at a reasonable and equal height once again*
Sooo, this is me

@♀ seo jiyoung『ᴊᴀᴅᴇ』 I see; you must really like that brand, huh? I guess I know what to give you for a birthday present
//slowing my steps even more so I can spend at least more time with you even just for a minute or two as I keep listening to you, taking a mental note about your favorite fragrance//
Like that Spiderman meme? Where they are pointing at each other?
If any of them lived a much better life, would you trade your place with them?

@❀ jeon minjun『ᴀᴄᴇ』ˢᵒˡᵒⁱˢᵗ It was very clean~ It's inspired by ballerinas, so I knew the brand from before, but only vaguely. They use very clean and organic materials, so even the most sensitive skin won't be irritated. I can talk about them a lot, but I will wait until they make me their ambassador, fingers crossed.
*chuckles, but still with the hope it will happen one day, turning the last corner before the dorm comes into view*
Hmmm... I like La Suprema by Floridia, it's Italian again, I think someone gifted it to me... it's uni too! It's a similar scent though - woody, citrusy with sandalwood, jasmine, and roses, so I guess I have a certain scent that I like on me. It's where I got the idea for my Instagram name when I was making it - I was looking around for ideas and just saw the perfume and... you know.
Oh, I picture that meeting a lot like in the movie The Parent Trap - a lot of yelling for sure, if my doppelgänger is as loud as me. But then... I don't know exactly... I would just ask her how life is going, what kind of decisions did she make and why... stuff like that.

@♀ seo jiyoung『ᴊᴀᴅᴇ』 True. Ooh, lingerie brand. Must their collection be good, then? I like the woody scent, as you noticed from my perfume. What kind of scent do you like aside from that La Perla?
//hums a little while scrunching my nose//
Hmm it would feel weird to see someone with the same face as me... what would you do or ask them if you ever get the chance to meet them?

@❀ jeon minjun『ᴀᴄᴇ』ˢᵒˡᵒⁱˢᵗ The money is worth if its for a good product, so it's not a waste when it's so long-lasting and smells good.
Ah, I wore my favourite then - La Perla. They're a lingerie brand actually, I was invited to a collection launch, hmmm... last year. I saw their fragrance line there, and loved the signature one, the woody notes keep it long-lasting, but its very fresh... like citruses and jasmine. I should wear it more often...
*turns my head again, to sniff at the jacket, before humming*
No? I'd like to meet some of mine... 1-2, not more. I'd like to see what my face is doing in another life. Why don't you want to meet yours?

@♀ seo jiyoung『ᴊᴀᴅᴇ』 Its Masculin Pluriel by Maison Francis Kurkdjian. A little pricey but worth the money. I like your perfume scent though, like the one you wore at my birthday party.
//glances down to match your walking speed though it was a bit hard since I had to make sure I wouldn't trip down and then look back at your face//
Hmm Nah, I don't want to meet any of them. What about you? Would you like to meet any of them?

@❀ jeon minjun『ᴀᴄᴇ』ˢᵒˡᵒⁱˢᵗ Which one is it? I can't recognize it from scent only. You know, I'm a little jealous of men - your perfumes are always strong and long-lasting, while feminine ones are... whimsy.
*huffs a little, taking deliberately slow steps along the way, even though I still have to tiptoe to catch up with your long-legged stride*
I do too. I don't think they are humans though. Maybe humanoid... but alien. But still sentient. Maybe they even have emotions like us... Who are we to think we are the only sensitive ones...
*hums in though, voicing my thoughts out loud absent-mindedly, before I turn to you in surprize*
Seven?? No, I didn't know! That's so interesting though! Wait... Would you like to meet your doppelgängers? Or one of them, or some... or none?

@♀ seo jiyoung『ᴊᴀᴅᴇ』 Mmh I think you did. On my birthday. I never changed this scent for these past two years. It's not too strong and long-lasting, too.
Hmm?
//glances at you and then up to the sky as well, pondering for a while before nodding my head//
I'd love to believe so. The universe is a huge place after all. Who knows, maybe in another far-away galaxy, there was someone like us too, living different lives, having a different name but with the same face. Do you know that, supposedly, human has seven doppelgangers?

@❀ jeon minjun『ᴀᴄᴇ』ˢᵒˡᵒⁱˢᵗ *looks up at you quietly, a little smile still playing on my lips when you wrap me in your jacket - very similarly to how you did the same on your birthday, but for very different reasons. turns my head to the lapels, breathing in*
You still use the same cologne. I like it. Did I tell you before?
*holds the side of the jacket with my free hand, wrapping fingers around yours, thumb gently soothing across your wrist, dreading to see the front door of our dorm right now, so I look away, upwards to the night sky*
Do you think there's life on other planets?

@♀ seo jiyoung『ᴊᴀᴅᴇ』 Princess it is then.
//gently pry your hand off my arm so I can take off my outerwear and drape it around your shoulders//
Well, it's not much, but I think it is better than just your dress
//this time, I take the initiative to hold your hand as we walk toward your dorm, hoping that you can't hear how loud my heart's beating right now//
This year really flew by so fast

@❀ jeon minjun『ᴀᴄᴇ』ˢᵒˡᵒⁱˢᵗ It's not about making /me/ uncomfortable, silly. It's about putting your... both of our minds at ease. Don't dwell on it, yeah?
*puts my own mask on, hoping the darkness and the scarcity of people at this time would be enough to keep us on the low*
Oh, I like "princess".
*grins as soon as I hear the nickname, hitting the exact right spot, while I sneak out and take your arm again, a shiver running through me at once, the short dress doing little in keeping me warm*
When did it turn so chilly? Summer is really going away, indeed.
Well, lead the way~

@♀ seo jiyoung『ᴊᴀᴅᴇ』 Sorry, I didn't mean to make you feel uncomfortable, Jiyoung. No more talking and thinking about that, I promise. And sure, I'll text you as soon as the advance ticket sale is open.
//parks the car few blocks away from the dorm, getting off first after making sure I put the cap and glasses on. Walks over the car to open your door//
Let's go, princess

@❀ jeon minjun『ᴀᴄᴇ』ˢᵒˡᵒⁱˢᵗ *after chewing on my lip for some time, I put one hand gently on yours where it's holding the gear shift*
Don't think about that. I'm asking you. Stop thinking about that.
*retrieves my hand so I don't bother your driving, seeing the familiar neighbourhood nearby*
Deadpool and Wolverine, you promised. I'll be waiting for you to text me.

@♀ seo jiyoung『ᴊᴀᴅᴇ』 Of course. If it's easy for me to give up, I wouldn't even be here right now and gave up the moment I knew you like my br-- someone else.
Yeah, this dinner is a success. No allergic reactions and definitely no sudden trip to the ER and scaring the nurses there
//chuckles softly, a soft smile on my face even as I keep my eyes on the road//
So next time... movie date? Deadpool & Wolverine?

@❀ jeon minjun『ᴀᴄᴇ』ˢᵒˡᵒⁱˢᵗ Well, if at first you don't succeed - try again, try again, as the song goes?
We definitely should come back, I didn't just say it out of courtesy - these people have a gift. The gift of preparing food.
*continues praising the chefs, my foodie heart waltzing in joy as I cling to your arm before getting into the car and buckling up. still humming happily I take out my phone, going through the photos of tonight, and smiling to myself, then turns to you*
Indeed, loved the crab, the salmon, the shrimp and the dessert. And I definitely liked the company. Would definitely share food with this company again. And look - a success, nobody ended up in the ER this time around!

@♀ seo jiyoung『ᴊᴀᴅᴇ』 I mean, if you didn't enjoy this dinner, I wouldn't know what to do... But since you enjoyed it, maybe we can come back here again in the future? After all, you did promise them that we would come again.
//looks at you and smiles. Part of me still couldn't believe that we had just had a dinner date and that you would even hold onto my arm like this. Once we arrive in the parking lot and let you get inside the car first, I slowly drive back toward Venus' dorm//
So you love the crab and salmon but don't like the tartare... though I hope you like the company~?

@❀ jeon minjun『ᴀᴄᴇ』ˢᵒˡᵒⁱˢᵗ Me too~ Probably because it's less people coming up... and less photographers. But it's just that much more calm.
*bows to everyone of the staff as well, as I follow you out, waving at them goodbye and promising we will come back again*
Hm? what do you mean?
*holds onto your arm again as we descend the stairs, an automatic gesture, out of habit almost, as if I am just used to walking beside you like this*

@♀ seo jiyoung『ᴊᴀᴅᴇ』 //smiles as I look at you, happy with the way the dinner was a delightful one for you//
Jiyoungie eh... alright then, Jiyoungie.
And I love night walks, so yes let's do that
//gets up from the chair, already paying for the course beforehand when I reserve the spot. Bowing my head to the chef before making our way out//
I'm glad you have fun tonight. I honestly have no idea if you didn't enjoy it even the slightest hahaha

@❀ jeon minjun『ᴀᴄᴇ』ˢᵒˡᵒⁱˢᵗ //.perfect, thank youuuuuuu

*having successfully snuck a photo of you when dessert had arrived - perfectly candied apples, hollowed out and filled with creamy goodness - I tuck my phone away, a rosy blush to the apples of my cheeks from having eaten so much*
Everything was perfect. Even the things I didn't like - they looked great and I tried some new stuff! This is more important. But the crab, oh... the crab was my favourite.
*lets out a satisfied moan at the memory of the crab legs' taste, then laughs a little at your loss of nickname, voice raising slightly in a sing-song lilt*
"Gee, gee, gee, gee, baby, baby, baby" - doesn't it sound like that? I liked it when you called me "Jiyoungie" before.
*hums in the comfortable silence, almost feeling remorseful that we have to split up now and go home*
We can walk it off a bit maybe? Park the car a couple blocks from the dorm and walk a bit? Do you like night walks?

@♀ seo jiyoung『ᴊᴀᴅᴇ』 [I'll skip to the end of the dinner]

//with all the food being served, leaving almost no other space for even just a few drops of water, I lean back a little to take a breath. Despite the small size of the food, the 6 courses were enough to make me feel so stuffed. Looks at you with a grin on my face//
Does it all fit your taste, Ji? I know you said I'm calling you Ji sounds foreign but right now, I can't think of any other name. Food coma is real.
//chuckles softly as I playfully pat my stomach, making a mental note to hit the gym more tomorrow//

@❀ jeon minjun『ᴀᴄᴇ』ˢᵒˡᵒⁱˢᵗ Mmmmmmm i love nigiri so much. Especially salmon, thank you so much, yorisa-nim.
*bows my head a little to the chef, doing a little happy dance then takes out my phone to take photos of the many cute little dishes*
I see, I see... Noodles... Interesting. Like her Instagram name, huh?
Well. In any case, let's spend some time together now.
*leans on the table, smiling, chopsticks loosely between my fingers, making sure to catch your gaze with mine*

//.wanna timeskip just a little to the desert? i don't wanna rp out eating again lmao, only if you want tho

@♀ seo jiyoung『ᴊᴀᴅᴇ』 //your words of affirmation send a huge relief to me and immediately ease my panic as I grin sheepishly at you and then look at the sushi the chef has laid for us, consisting of tuna belly sushi, yellowfin tuna sashimi, and salmon nigiri//
I guess it's another fish party in our mouth
And uh...
//scratches the side of my cheek when you questioned about Jiyeon, not knowing if I should tell you all about it or not//
...well, you can say that...? We... spent quite a lot of time together. And I called her "Yeon" or noodles instead of "Ji"
Mhm yeah don't mind it, not baby for now, right, for sure. It is too early...

@❀ jeon minjun『ᴀᴄᴇ』ˢᵒˡᵒⁱˢᵗ //.oh i messed up the name didnt i-- szrxdfc

I love it. I love that you set it up and prepared everything. I don't want to go anywhere else.
*responds very calmly to your panic, smiling genuinely at you, as they serve us a second course*
Now what is that, what are we having here...
Oh, did she...
*listens intently, following the way you smile a little, like at a fond memory, and something, weirdly, makes a muscle in my face twitch*
Did you... practice with her a lot? I didn't realize you trained together? You seem to have had a good time, if it has you smiling like that.
She is also a "Ji" too, mmh... Interesting.
Maybe baby. One day. Although I like it, it's a bit too early for baby right now, isn't it?
