↳ ledeux's dorm

@♊︎ park seonghwa ᵛᵉⁿ Eun's hand gently landed on his as he held onto her wrist, patting the fingers much like one would the back of someone you comforted. It wasn't much, but hopefully it would be enough. It still seemed to take him a bit before he looked up, earning him a small sympathetic smile. "Nothing to be embarrassed about," she hummed before glancing over to the fridge. "Oh, you did not wake me. I was overheating in bed and figured I could sneak out for some water without waking anyone. And then-" Her voice grew sadder as she looked back, gesturing a little in his direction with her free hand. "-I saw you. I couldn't exactly just ignore it, could I?"

@♊︎ kwon eunbi ᴱᵘⁿ One, two, three, four, hold, exhale, two, three, four... Ven had to do that a dozen times before he could meet Eunbi's eyes and accept her invitation. He didn't walk into her open arms, but he did cling to one of her wrists, using it as an anchor while he tethered himself back into reality. A few more shaky breaths, and he pulls through to the other side, meeting his group mate's gaze for the first time. "This is embarrassing," he laughs out, swiping at the residual tears with the backs of his hands. "So sorry to have woken you up... Seems like I need sleep more than I thought..." Maybe he could bull his way out of this... He'd done it before. But no amount of gazing into Eun's eyes could help him discern what she was thinking about him.

@♊︎ park seonghwa ᵛᵉⁿ It was clear that Ven’s words of reassurance was his way of coping, considering he had just admitted to not being able to breathe. It had been faint, but her ears picked it up, sparking the motherly worry within her to action. Without any consideration for how it could look, she hurried to his side, whispering a soft: “Hey, hey, hey.” Her hands hovered a bit away from him, unsure if she could be so bold as to give him the hug he seemed to need, yet refrained as it could push whatever plagued him further. She instead stood there with her arms out, hoping the invitation for comfort wouldn’t seem as intrusive. “You are clearly not fine, Ven. And there is no shame in that.” Eunbi tilted her head a little, a small pout on her lips. “Want to talk about it?”

@♊︎ kwon eunbi ᴱᵘⁿ Ven was more and more convinced that he should have locked himself in his room and left himself to rot like all the other nights when insomnia kept him up. That would have saved him the embarrassment of being found mentally stuck in a fridge. Through bleary, tear-filled eyes, he meets Eun's gaze, trying to smile his way through the pain. "I-I can't breathe," he whispers out, his voice wavering as much as his hands. "I-I was trying to sleep..." He closes the fridge door, stepping away from it and towards the counter for support. He didn't want to waste electricity on top of someone's time. One of his hands waves in the air in front of him. "I-I-I'm fine..."

@♊︎ park seonghwa ᵛᵉⁿ Despite the bleary vision Eunbi had after everything on their schedule had finally wrapped up for the night, she had not been able to go to sleep when they had gotten back to the dorm. Her mind was still working overtime, planning for the coming days and trying to figure out how she’d be able to sneak in any time with her fiancee amongst everything they had remaining on the docket. It seemed almost impossible to juggle everything at the same time, a challenge she had thought she had been prepared for, yet having gotten blindsided nonetheless.
Perhaps a warm shower could help clear her thoughts a little? It couldn’t hurt to try.
Shuffling out of her and Sua’s room in a small tanktop and hipsters, she tried her best at being quiet to not wake anyone else up. But as she passed the corner by the kitchen she had heard low noises. Seemed someone already was up. Trying her best to force a small smile onto her sleepy expression, she peeked her head around the corner, only to be met with the visage of Ven, visibly shaking and whimpering.
“H-hey, Ven? What’s wrong?”

@♊︎ kwon eunbi ᴱᵘⁿ Ven had a hard time believing that he was already debuting. Years of hard work paying off... Their anxiety was as high as ever. He couldn't remember the last time he'd felt a day where imminent death wasn't hypothetically awaiting them. The good part was, their schedules were so packed that he barely had time to stop and think, which is usually what started their panic to begin with.
That night, they'd finished late, but as everyone trickled to their respective rooms to tuck in for the night, Ven found themselves grieved with insomnia. That was a scary train track for them to follow, so he opted for distraction. Said distractions led them to the kitchen, where a long stare-off with a bottle of cold tea in the fridge led their thoughts astray. One strand at a time, the little bit of composure Ven had clung to that day began to unravel and their eyes welled with tears. Why were they this way? His breath picked up in pace, his hands trembled... God, not again... All they could do was stuff the back of their fist in their mouth and try and silently scream through it, and hope no one would find him.

The announcement was met with a short glance from Stephanie to Joohyun, as Eunbi pointed a single finger up at herself. "Me?" she mouthed before folding her hands and quickly bowing. "I will do my best to be a good leader to the whole team," she hurriedly added before turning and bowing to the other members. "But please don't treat me any differently for it. I just wanna be one of you guys."

Oh, you already have ideas, Felix? I mean... Lix-ssi. Ugh, for a person with a stagename herself i really at using them. Especially in private.
But yes, keep 'em coming, uh... Joohyunie, its up to you - how would it be more convenient to you?

Ah! Very good question! That slipped my mind! Yes, well, it is my honor to inform you that your leader will be none other than miss Kwon Eunbi, or as the public will know her - Eun. Wooo~ Congrats to her and to you, I am completely convinced she is mature and responsible enough to be your leader!

Sua’s eyes widened, it was finally happening. She was finally part of the debut line. She gave Felix a smile when he reached for her hand, using her other hand to rub his only to hum and grin as she nodded over at him, wiggling her eyebrows a bit. She then turned her attention to Eunbi before turning back to Felix, chuckling when he clasped his hands.

Oh and and
*clasps my hands together before i get too excited*
There is one thing... maybe i didn't hear... or i didn't understand.... because language? But who is our leader?

Oh yeah, that's a good question.
Hyun-
*pauses momentarily before clearing my throat, turning from Felix to the CEOs*
Seohyun-seongsangnim, you wouldn't mind us dropping by if you're in, right?

Oh--
*instinctively reaches for Sua's hand before my brain could even process and send the signal to my head to turn to her too, with a beaming smile*
It's happening...
*whispers in poorly hidden excitement, the grin soon to be face-splitting, before raising a hand*
Ehem... Apologies seongsang-nim! If we have something we want to present - do we... send an email? Or just... show up at Seohyun-seongsangnim's office? Or...?

*glances over to Joohyun and mouths with a smile*
Our manager?

Okay now that everyone's here [imagine, I'm godmodding] its lovely to see all of you all cozy and snug here~ And that's a fair question Seonghwa-ssi, it feels so official since we're both here together, huh... Although, I will have to learn to call you by the stagenames you guys chose becaauuusssseeee
Well, I'm not gonna postpone it - you're up for debut! Congrats! Joohyunie is here because she will be your manager! Fear not, she is only scary when she wants to be.
But back to you guys - yes, you will be DSF's very own co-ed group! Now, this is some risky business as you might guess, so we have decided to go with a mini for your debut release, no more than 6 tracks, but w want 3 of them to be the instrumentals.
In short what I'm saying is - we are looking for 3 original songs form you guys! Now, I'm sure some you already have a bank of ideas...
//looks at Sua pointedly/
... but we are also prepared to pitch in with songs if you don't have any. But first - your job now will be to present Seohyunie here with 3 tracks as a group, even if they are not finished yet - no worries, we got a team for that. And hopefully this is be as soon as possible, because after Jung Eunbi's solo debut - it's gonna be you guys' heads on the chopping board.
So... chop-chop, as it were, and get to work!
Oh! I almost forgot - do you have any questions? I believe, you already know your name will be LeDeux, because you're a two-by-two mix of boys and girls; your fandom name is LesPremiers, meaning "the first ones", so your fans will always come first, and your colors are red and silver. Anything I'm missing?

*Seohyun finally stops fixing up Eve's outfit (the socks had to be just right, and her perfect little head of hair had to be quaffed to perfection!) and rights herself up to greet the members rolling into the common space*
Hello everyone! Good morning!
*her eyes dance automatically to Eunbi, hiding a coy smile behind her hand and clearing *
It's definitely a little chilly in here *she agrees with Tiff* We'll have to get on that pronto

Ven is much slower in his trip down to the common area, arriving behind Eun with a more timid expression. "Hello," he greets with deep bows to the two CEOs, finding a spot to stand next to Eun. "What brings you both today?"

Knock knock! Is everyone home? You better be, i checked your schedules...
//makes my way into the house with Eve's stroller and Seohyun right beside me/
Ladies and gentlemen, please gather for a house meeting in the living room, we have important news~
//perches self on the sofa, the stroller situated right beside, as i look around and murmur mostly to myself and Seohyun/
We should get firewood and hire a house manager to help with stoking the fireplace, it's getting cold outside...
