⠀➷ gondolas.

@✧ ┆ k. seokwoo. ᵍʳᵃʸ ʷᵒˡᶠ Wanting to do something that was new to him, so Jinyoung had set out to head over to the gondolas. This would be the first time that he was going to be able to take them in his lifetime and he was hoping that it would be special. Likely that it would have had he not been in such a hurry and stepping off the platform onto the slope when he knew that his foot had landed on the surface incorrectly.

rubs away the liquid around my eyes, yawning heavily and closing my eyes to see if i would finally be able to fall asleep.

eventually trudges back into this cabin, only able to stay alone for so long. makes a makeshift nest out of a few blankets and pillows in a corner and lays down, restless. my eyes remain open, gazing off at nothing as I debate taking suppressants to at least soothe my anxiety
mm.. no. it's only a few more days.

*swiftly moves out of the way when heading down the path leading to the cabin, wondering what in the world happened to cause the reaction but shrugging as it was too late to ask*

... this.. i am gonna go for a walk
gets up from the sheets and breezes out of the cabin

in a big breath, too tired to really care about the tears anymore
nuzzles into the bedding and does my best not to worry about it

turns his phone off and buries his face into the sheets, sniffling to try and hold back the tears

ends up here instead, curling up under a few blankets with a heavy sigh

*he talks a bit to himself*
no idea where to go tonight or what to do with myself
*he sighs, tugs at his hair and feels a bit emotional, hiding his face in his blanket*

*he sighs as he walks in, holding a blanket and sliding down a wall. he frowns and looks at the distance, then lowering his head and moving to hug his knees up*

-nods slowly when I finish up telling you things and you express your trust in Wooseok-
Sounds great! I’ve never met Jaewook, but I’m sure he’s just as good as Wooseok built him up to be.
-offers a warm smile-
It’s not a problem at all, I kind of owed Wooseok a favor, but that’s not important, I’ll leave you in peace now. I’ll tell Wooseok about your state of being and that you’re willing to try and talk to Jaewook.
-waves at you-
See you!

listens while curiously looking up the name, owlishly peeking at you from over the edge of his phone at the mentioning of warnings.
Ohh.. mm.. I see— ooh..
looks to the side after finding out he was a snake hybrid, gulping nervously while looking at his instagram, taking in a soft breath.
i.. okay. okay i’ll message him, like i said i trust that wooseok wouldn’t tell me to meet someone dangerous— and actors are very professional so.. so it’ll be alright.. haha..
sets my phone down and sleepily smiles at you
thank you for everything. really, you didn’t have to do all of this.

Me too, I do not wanna go near his cabin right now.
-waits to see how you feel in the matter, remembering Wooseok told me to make sure you won’t feel unsure about meeting this guy-
Yeah, that is what he said~ actor slash model or whatever. Sounds great, I did have to give you a couple warnings. Jaewook is kind of reserved, the kind of guy who may seem a little difficult to get along with in person. He’s better over texting. Oh! He is also a snake hybrid, but.. I don’t foresee him eating you. I really don’t think Wooseok would be that careless.

waits patiently for you to find whatever the surprise was, fiddling with the cap to the water bottle until you return
ooh, i’m glad it didn’t get blown away.
takes the note and gazes at the name and phone number, blinking at it with a soft humming sound.
lee jaewook.. as in, the actor? i guess it makes sense they would know each other..
nibbles on my bottom lip in thought and then slides out my phone to save the contact information.
i’ll give it a shot, i trust wooseok wouldn’t recommend them if they weren’t pretty cool.

Yeah, I think I might have…
-stands up from my crouched position and walks toward the entry way, eyeing the floor carefully-
I’m just gonna step outside! I’ll be right back in!
-I rush outside and look all around the cabin before finding something that looks familiar. An orange pumpkin shaped sticky note-
Ah!
-Pounces on the note before the wind could whisk it away any further-
Got it!
-makes sure to rub it against my scent gland, ridding of any remnants of Wooseok’s scent. I then dash back inside and hold up the sticky note victorious-
I got it!
-hands it over to you-
He said it’s some new guy that is coming here, some.. Lee Jaewook guy. He wanted to introduce the two of you but his rut showed up at an in opportune time. So, he said, “tell him whenever he is comfortable, to send a message to this guy. I know they would make good friends.”

I.. take your time, hyung. There’s no rush..
watches you fiddling around with your pockets, keeping a faint smile on my face.
Oh, okay. Maybe you misplaced it or dropped it in the entry?

Yeah, I’m sure they’ll be just fine.
-Relinquishes the bottle of water so you can drink it-
You’re welcome! … and yes, I’m… just… trying to.. find it…
-continues to check my pockets, looking for the tiny piece of paper I was given-
Gosh, where the heck did I put it… I might have to check outside really quick!

Mm.. that’s hard, but I’m sure they will get through it. They both seem like the type to be rational about those things in hindsight.
relaxes against the blankets as you get the water, blearily blinking at you as you return and lifting my hand up for the drink
thank you so much… mm, he did?
watches curiously, nursing the bottle of water.

I’ll tell him! Since there relationship is pretty new I can imagine it’s hard not seeing Dohyun. Though, it would be much too early for them to be in the same room while experiencing them. I heard alphas can get violent with one another when they smell each other’s scent. Maybe not for all, but it can.
I’m sure they’ll appreciate the gesture.
-nods-
I’ll go get you some! I’ll be right back.
-jogs over to the mini fridge present in the cabin, rummaging through it until I find a decent sized bottle of water-
Got it!
-I cheer from across the room, bringing it back over, even opening it for you-
Oh, wait, I think he gave me something else to give to you.
-begins digging around in all my pockets-

I didn’t realize his rut was so soon.. tell him I wish him well. It’s gotta be tough being separated from Dohyun during early on cycles.. I should send them something after mine.
Water.. it would be helpful. I can’t move very well right now, so I would appreciate it a lot.

Not a bother at all, it keeps his mind at ease knowing that you’re alright. He said he would have come to look for you, but said it would be dangerous because of his rut. It’s the first day… I can only imagine what he is going through right now.
It’s nice to meet you as well, sorry, I’m blabbering on.
I’ll be sure to tell him in a good way. Is there anything I can get for you? Even just water?

tries my best to sit up, scooting somewhat so i can see you.
Ohh. I’m sorry to have bothered you then.. Wooseok is a very kind person.. it’s nice to meet you. I’m not feeling very good today, Wooseok hyung won’t like hearing that though so please tell him nicely.

-waddles further into the room with a smile-
Hey, I know we haven’t talked much… gosh, maybe not at all, but I’m a friend of Wooseok’s. He asked me to check in with you to see if you’re doing alright. Since I’m a beta your scent won’t bother me~

blinks and peers around.
hello?

Seongmin~

it’s sentimental seongmin time heh

i think i know what i would enjoy maybe most of all in a relationship. knowing that once a month, the person who already makes me feel happy, safe, and warm is going to be there for me during an inevitable time of need. i cannot fathom what it’s like to have someone like that during a cycle..

shifts around, waking up from my dozing off and lifting the blanket away from my head since i was getting too hot

settles down in here for the day, not wanting all the noise that there was in my own cabin at the time. my arms wrap around myself and i cover up with a thick blanket, shivering slightly.

*hides in here as his heat started, hugging tightly his plushie, his body feels hot and heavy*
