@❁ kumsung ᵍᵒˡᵈ⁻ˢᵗᵃʳ @❁ changwook ʰᵉᵃˡᵉʳ I'll pay attention and take notes, but I think you have more faith in my understanding than I do. But! I'll still do my best~
/takes a couple more bites and then smiles/
See, now you've got two students who think you're not old or boring.
/cheers again and thanks the waitress as she takes the leftovers and packs them into containers/
Do you guys want to take any home? I'll share because you guys are great. But yes, I'm so ready for drinks!
/stands and stretches for a bit before bouncing on my toes a bit/
Okay, I'm ready now! I promise I'm just getting my energy out so I'm not all over the place later; I'll calm down in a few~

@❁ talay ˡᵃʸˡᵃʸʸᵒ @❁ changwook ʰᵉᵃˡᵉʳ *glances over at Wook and shrugs*
I don't particularly hate you for the big assignment honestly-
Gives me an excuse to go see you outside of class~
*says playfully and laughs, nodding at Talay's words*
definitely not old, definitely not boring~ and yes drinks!
*smiles widely and sways a bit in my seat*
always down for drinks~ it's party time anyway!

@❁ talay ˡᵃʸˡᵃʸʸᵒ @❁ kumsung ᵍᵒˡᵈ⁻ˢᵗᵃʳ Like I said, I think you'll understand a lot more than you realize.
Especially if you pay attention well. The material is interesting so hopefully it'll capture your attention.
But yeah. I hold OHs relatively often so you can always come to those for help.
/chuckles/
That's a relief, I suppose.
That at least one of my students doesn't think I am old and boring.
/asks the waitress is we can take some leftovers and nods when she agrees after I explain/
Alright. Shall we get going for drinks soon?

@❁ kumsung ᵍᵒˡᵈ⁻ˢᵗᵃʳ @❁ changwook ʰᵉᵃˡᵉʳ Then we'll all go together so Sung can show up, and I'll know where to go! Is there a reason you hadn't been going though, Sung?
/nods and gives Wook a thumbs up/
Promise I'll be there! I'm glad you've got that kind of mentality. I'm not sure I'll understand much in the class since it looks really complicated, and I'm kinda simple, but since the professor's my friend, I won't feel as nervous asking for help!
/cheers a little and does a playful happy dance/
Perfect! Also, P'Wook, you're not boring! This whole day was your idea, remember? I'm having so much fun, so shhh, and you're not old unless you're 70 or older, so I'm positive you're still young.

@❁ talay ˡᵃʸˡᵃʸʸᵒ @❁ kumsung ᵍᵒˡᵈ⁻ˢᵗᵃʳ Ah. I wouldn't mind either if you need me.
Of course I'm usually coming over from meetings or something.
/chuckles and looks at Sung with a shake of my head/
You can hate me for it. It's okay.
/smiles at Talay/
Great. Then I better see you in class tomorrow.
Otherwise you'll end up in the same boat as someone else.
In terms of that... failing students isn't my goal so I try to avoid it. I think making then do the work and helping them pass, if barely, helps people learn more than just letting them fail.
/grins/
I'd love too as well.
If, of course, you all don't get tired of inviting your old and boring professor.

@❁ talay ˡᵃʸˡᵃʸʸᵒ @❁ changwook ʰᵉᵃˡᵉʳ I don't mind meeting up with you Talay and heading to class together for the first couple classes-
*wrinkles my nose and huffs*
I mean.. he means what he says when he talks about no favorites-
*laughs at Talay's words and hums*
I think normally you can't take left overs home but... maybe they'll make an exception for the birthday boy~?
and I'd love to come with next time too~
but eat as much as you can in case!
*laughs and finishes my rice and jjigae*

@❁ kumsung ᵍᵒˡᵈ⁻ˢᵗᵃʳ @❁ changwook ʰᵉᵃˡᵉʳ Either one, or both. Both is nice, makes it look like I'm not the new kid who can't make friends. Though you're actually my friends, but still.
/chuckles and shakes my head at Sung/
How do you just not show up to class? You're paying for it, right? I can't say much since I've missed a few, but once I know where I'm going, I plan on being there.
/turns back to Wook/
I usually like to get to class ten minutes early, so I promise I'll do better, P'Wook! I know I should've emailed you sooner, so that's my fault. Still, it's interesting how you deal with failing students, or I guess not failing them. I'm not going to want to do a 45 minute presentation or a 15 paged paper, so I'll be in class.
/sticks my tongue out at Sung/
Is he the birthday boy though? I think not! But I'll let it slide because I'm a nice boy.
/laughs again and smiles once Sung eats the wrap/
We can take this home right? I hope we can. If not, then I'll eat lots now!
/grins and finally gets to the jiggae and rice/
This is all really good. I'll have to come back here! You guys can come with, kay? It'll be fun.

@❁ talay ˡᵃʸˡᵃʸʸᵒ @❁ kumsung ᵍᵒˡᵈ⁻ˢᵗᵃʳ /tilts my head/
Sung or I?
If you mean me I wouldn't mind showing you where it all is. At least then I know you'll have no excuse to not come.
/nods/
Exactly. So... as you can see~ Sung here is definitely not getting out of this mess with no work to show for it.
I don't like to fail students in general so I always try to be fair and give them a chance to show me they can put in the work.
/laughs/
Mm... exactly. He fed you first, birthday boy. You're the preferred pampered one tonight.
/looks over the food, already mostly full/
You all can call when we head over to grab drinks. I'm pretty full already so whenever you two are ready we can head out.

@❁ talay ˡᵃʸˡᵃʸʸᵒ @❁ changwook ʰᵉᵃˡᵉʳ *purses my lips and huffs*
I mean.. if you want.. we can go to class together-
possibly take some attention away from me-
*wrinkles my nose and huffs*
well I almost failed-
and no I don't think that's favoritism- I have... a 45 minute presentation to do.. and a 15 page paper.. to make up for my grade-
*feeds Wook the wrap before blinking at Talay and huffs*
hey hey I was just trying to be fair~ I fed you first though silly hyung-
*laughs softly and opens my mouth, eating the wrap with a soft hum*

@❁ kumsung ᵍᵒˡᵈ⁻ˢᵗᵃʳ @❁ changwook ʰᵉᵃˡᵉʳ Well I don't want to be the new guy AND be late. Too much attention; I'd probably freak out. How about you just take me to the classroom so I know where it is and also get to be with a friend at the same time? That sounds like a better idea, right, Sung?
/grins at Sung and then hums, making note about the flyers/
I'll check then! I was in my last university's drama club, and it was so fun!
/gapes at Sung and shakes my head/
Amazing, how has P'Wook not failed you yet? Do you have blackmail or something?
/peers at Wook in a playfully suspicious manner/
Or is this a case of favoritism?
/pouts a bit when Sung offered Wook a wrap but laughs right after a second of that pout/
Hey, how come you didn't feed the birthday boy? I think the birthday boy should be the one that gets fed here. How rude of you two~
/chuckles and makes a wrap for Sung, holding it up to his mouth/
But since you're my new friend, I'll feed you instead. Your turn to say ah~

@❁ talay ˡᵃʸˡᵃʸʸᵒ @❁ kumsung ᵍᵒˡᵈ⁻ˢᵗᵃʳ /sighs at Talay/
Really? You too?
Wow. At this rate I'm surprised any of my students come to my lectures then.
You should ask for directions next time. You'll enjoy it and I promise you you'll understand more than you think.
/nods in thought/
I'm sure we do. You should check out the flyers around. Those usually have announcements for auditions and stuff.
/looks at Sung and hums/
But~ at least you're on track more now. Which is definitely a win in my book.
/blinks in surprise when I'm offered the wrap/
Oh-- thanks.
/I part my lips with a chuckle, making an 'ah' motion as I take the piece of food into my mouth/

@❁ talay ˡᵃʸˡᵃʸʸᵒ @❁ changwook ʰᵉᵃˡᵉʳ *hums and looks over at both of you*
well.. Wook uhm got a lil mad at me for not showing up to class.. I've literally missed like... more than two thirds of class-
*purses my lips*
so no it's not a joke.. I actually really don't-
*feeds Talay the wrap before making another, laughing softly at Talay's words*
oh really~? You're fine~ you can be as sappy as you want~
*holds up the second wrap towards Wook*
Say Ah~

@❁ kumsung ᵍᵒˡᵈ⁻ˢᵗᵃʳ @❁ changwook ʰᵉᵃˡᵉʳ /shrugs a bit and chuckles/
I kept getting lost, and instead of coming in late, I just wouldn't go because I'm not the smartest. I figured a psych class would help with my major so I could know how to get in the head of whatever character I'd be playing. Oh I wonder if there's a drama club here. I'd love to join. Are there any plays or productions I could audition for? Any experience I can get would be welcome. Not everyone can be an actor professionally after all.
/blinks mid ramble and turns back to Sung/
You don't go to class? Or is that a joke because of your popularity?
/turns back to Wook and smiles/
Yay, more friends! Promise I won't annoy you too much~
/chuckles and blushes a little, taking the wrap Sung offers me and eats it/
You know, no one outside of my mom has ever done something like that for me? You just unknowingly made me feel like I was back home, thank you, Sung. A-Ah, but I'm getting too sappy for us to have only just met, sorry sorry!

@❁ talay ˡᵃʸˡᵃʸʸᵒ @❁ kumsung ᵍᵒˡᵈ⁻ˢᵗᵃʳ /chuckles/
I can live with that.
/looks at Talay, not knowing the answer to that question myself/
Are you taking Psych? I don't think I've ever noticed you in my lectures before?
Then again... maybe you're like Subg and don't even attend them.
/adds a playful jab at Kumsung/
/smiles at Talay/
Sure. I'll take you up on the offer to be your friend. Why not?
/looks at Sung and grins in agreement/
To the birthday boy.

@❁ talay ˡᵃʸˡᵃʸʸᵒ @❁ changwook ʰᵉᵃˡᵉʳ *grins at Wook briefly before letting out a soft hum*
oh you take psych too?
*shudders softly and shakes my head*
I hope we don't have anything like that.. like think about it.. someone following you and stalk you for a photo for some facebook page- oh please no-
and well.. if we do get along... then you'd actually be my second friend Talay... my first being my roommate hyung-
but no. I'm only nice when I want to be.. when I'm fully ready to socialize and you know have fun-
catch me on campus and you'll be getting something closer to a cold glare.. unless you're already my friend-
and so far.. it's the two of you and my roommate who are... the only ones in the... safe zone?
*shrugs and eats more of my rice and some of the jjigae before getting a piece of lettuce and building up a lettuce wrap, holding it out to Talay*
to the birthday boy-

@❁ kumsung ᵍᵒˡᵈ⁻ˢᵗᵃʳ @❁ changwook ʰᵉᵃˡᵉʳ Boo, that's no fun, but fine. I guess I'll call you Prof in class. You best believe that outside the time limits of class I'm calling you P'Wook.
/laughs a little and nods at Kumsung/
It is a little startling. I had a friend be featured in it a few times, and those girls are like vultures sometimes the way they chase you down! If I was ever featured, they took my picture in secret because I never went through that. Either way, new university, new ways to get used to university life!
/smiles just as widely at Kumsung/
Aww, yay, thank you~ I may not offer much now, but just you wait; you'll feel the full extent of my friendship!
/chuckles a little and smiles at Changwook/
Aww, do you wanna be my friend too? We can be friends too; I like you, after all. As for the popularity thing, I doubt it. I'm not the popular type really. I blend into the background when I can help it unless I'm really excited about something. Sung seems to be one of the "popular because he's really cool and nice" types from what I'm seeing. And adorable. Throwing that in there too. Am I right, Nong'Sung?
/air pats Sung's cheeks with a light laugh/

@❁ talay ˡᵃʸˡᵃʸʸᵒ @❁ kumsung ᵍᵒˡᵈ⁻ˢᵗᵃʳ /raises an eyebrow at Sung/
Yeah. I guess now there will be two people calling me Prof.
/eats at some of the jiggae and rice/
How cute. I'm watching a friendship blossom.
Maybe you'll end up as one of the popular guys on campus too, Talay. Especially if they see you hanging around Sung.

[post deleted by owner]

@❁ talay ˡᵃʸˡᵃʸʸᵒ @❁ changwook ʰᵉᵃˡᵉʳ well....
*hums in thought, looking up at Wook to study his expression lightly*
I thought I was special in calling him prof instead of the full 'professor'
but you may be special will me Talay~
*wrinkles my nose in thought*
oh I wouldn't be happy if people took my photos oof.. especially when I'm not expecting it-
*smiles widely at Talay*
I'm glad to be your friend~

@❁ talay ˡᵃʸˡᵃʸʸᵒ @❁ kumsung ᵍᵒˡᵈ⁻ˢᵗᵃʳ Haha. Yeah. I don't know why I was so worried.
Anyway-- Yeah. Probably best to stick to Prof when we're in class. That is, after all, mostly where I see you all.
/listens along to you and Sung, nodding along/
Hey. Maybe your face will be there too soon Talay.
/smiles/
I'm glad you're having a nice welcome then.
As soon as you go to class I'm sure you'll gather lots more friends.

@❁ talay ˡᵃʸˡᵃʸʸᵒ Haha. Yeah. I don't know why I was so worried.

@❁ kumsung ᵍᵒˡᵈ⁻ˢᵗᵃʳ @❁ changwook ʰᵉᵃˡᵉʳ /playfully pouts a bit/
That's no fun; I thought it was something embarrassing or at least interesting the way you were worrying about it. Wouldn't prof usually be more acceptable than calling a professor by their first name? I was expecting some weird nickname the way you were talking, Kumsung.
/nods my head and chuckles/
Yeah, it's a bit strange when someone randomly comes up to you and takes your picture. One of the transgender students started it at my university, and it just kind of stuck after she posted the first three. A lot of dramas feature it too. I never checked the page, so I never knew who was on it, but it's a little funny to think about. Maybe there's a Cute Boy facebook page, and Kumsung's on it. That explains the popularity, but I don't think you guys have anything like that? A friend of mine was a cheerleader, and he was so good at it. I watched all his practices. A ton of work goes into cheering, and I never knew that before going to college.
/smiles brightly at you both as I steal one of the pieces of meat that just came off of the grill/
Either way, I owe you guys a ton. If either of you want or need anything, let me know. I really thought I'd have no friends coming here, and I've got two!

@❁ talay ˡᵃʸˡᵃʸʸᵒ @❁ changwook ʰᵉᵃˡᵉʳ *grins softly at Talay, pressing my lips into a thin line when I feel the squeeze on my knee*
mmh I usually just call him Prof-
*blinks and tilts my head*
Cute Boy facebook page... that's.. that's cute-
and well I'm not so sure why other students are dying to talk to me.. my roommate's the head of the cheerleading team and we're kinda close? That could be why-
I could have very well been a cheerleader myself if I was flexible enough although I'm light enough to be lifted and thrown around but meh.. but yeah I guess it's the looks-
*smiles at Talay and shakes my head*
glad to be spending your first birthday away from home~

@❁ kumsung ᵍᵒˡᵈ⁻ˢᵗᵃʳ @❁ changwook ʰᵉᵃˡᵉʳ Suggesting what? I suggested nothing~
/tilts my head at Kumsung/
What have you been calling him then? Maybe I'll get more ammo to use! What does he call you, P'Wook?
/throws another napkin at Kumsung when he laughs and sticks my tongue out at him when it too lands just in front of him/
Interesting? What makes you so popular then, if you don't mind me asking? Are you well known for something, or is it just because you're attractive? That's how it's done at my old university. There's a Cute Boy facebook page where people take pictures of the attractive men on campus and post them.
/eats another piece of meat and smiles/
It is pretty great, thanks for suggesting it. And thank you too Kumsung for coming along~

@❁ kumsung ᵍᵒˡᵈ⁻ˢᵗᵃʳ Mm... alright. I'll come. I'll just have to watch my drinking is all.
/blinks, eyeing Sung suspiciously/
No... you should stick with the nickname I told you you should use... but Wook is fine while we're here.
/changes the subject quickly/
Anyway.
Yeah. But maybe Talay will somehow deter people from being annoying or something. Who knows?
/chuckles/
Grilling is the easiest part.
/takes off the second batch of meat, holding off a second so we can get through most of the first two/
After this I picked a few places we can go grab drinks and stuff. They should be fun, I hope.

@❁ talay ˡᵃʸˡᵃʸʸᵒ @❁ changwook ʰᵉᵃˡᵉʳ *grins softly at you both before leaning back with a soft hum*
Ah no come with us~ definitely come with us we'll have loads of fun!!
*hums, my lips pursed lightly at the nicknames
I've been calling you something else~ would you prefer to stick with Wook too then?~
*laughs softly as I watch the napkin float and fall and shakes my head*
cute- and well yeah, sadly. Can't even get to classes in peace.. Wook knows because he barely sees my face in class-
*eats a couple pieces of the meat, humming softly in delight*
heh.. master of grilling yes~ This is really good honestly-
