@✿ park haneul ᵍᵉᵘⁿʸᵃⁿᵍ //makes a non-committal noise and burrows further into the couch, scrolling for topic ideas and ultimately falling asleep among the pillows/

@✿ cha yujin ʲᶦⁿ *chuckles, lightly swatting at the offending foot*
17-going-on-30, love it. And you are so welcome, *yeobo*
*laugh and rises again, stretching my spine with a grunt before taking in your significant improvement in mood*
There she is~
*pats your shoulder before heading back toward my room*
Keep that chin up, Jin, we'll get there one day

@✿ park haneul ᵍᵉᵘⁿʸᵃⁿᵍ //squints venomously/
Remember how i said ill take the house and the kids? I'll leave all the juju to you.
//extends a sock-covered foot to poke at wherever i can reach to reiterate my point/
//chews on my inner cheek as the written discussion goes, lowering the device with a scoff/
"Adult supervision" as if we're not 17-going-on-30. But fine. I think I'm all covered on all bases though. Thanks again for supporting the idea, *jagi*
//finally flashes you with something more than a small smile, mood upturned now that we are actually doing something in regards to development/

@✿ cha yujin ʲᶦⁿ *tuts lightly*
Maybe you are, maybe a divorce wouldn't be so bad
*pretends to think on it, chin and all before letting the act fall away with a laugh
hums, nodding and switching over to the group chat myself*
True, I'm not gonna say no to some help
*pauses for a moment to read an incoming message from the manger chat*
We are golden with our company mandated adult supervision, though. Anything else you wanna figure out now or should be pick back up when everyone shows up?

@✿ park haneul ᵍᵉᵘⁿʸᵃⁿᵍ //huffs out a breath out my nose, shooting you a look over the screen again/
I guess you're right. If we want it to happen we have to believe it will happen... maybe im just out here bringing bad juju to us...
//murmurs in the pillow, eyebrows furrowed as i send out details of the vlive to the rest of our proverbial corporate kids, then waiting for their replies/
Yeah, we need a big space. But everyone should help out, not fair for you to do all the heavy lifting.

@✿ cha yujin ʲᶦⁿ *rolls my eyes and chuckles at the group nickname, taking to perching on the couch's arm this time*
Soon enough, we won't be able to be called ies, y'know? Gotta manifest it
*glances around common space*
This might be our best bet - room for everyone - I can tidy up a bit more

@✿ park haneul ᵍᵉᵘⁿʸᵃⁿᵍ //looks up and huffs out a little laugh, still glad that we're at least going to be doing something/
Best corporate husband ever.
//plucks my own phone out to dig out our group chat as i burrow further into the couch while typing, focusing on you from over the screen as you enter back/
Friday ies it is then. Well, hopefully.
We'll have to clear out a room from any... incriminating elements.

@✿ cha yujin ʲᶦⁿ Yeah! it's a great idea, even. good looking out, Jin-ah
*affectionately taps your shoulder with a knuckle as i stand to go get my phone*
I'll do it now, actually, and that'd be perfect!
*calls the last part as I disappear down the hall, soon returning while writing the message*
If we can all figure out the logistics today, I'm hoping at least the majority'll be free to do it...tomorrow?

@✿ park haneul ᵍᵉᵘⁿʸᵃⁿᵍ Correct, I would take the house and the kids and leave you with paying alimony.
//states with a completely straight-business face, a second before façade breaks/
Yeah? You think it's a good idea too?
//visibly relaxes with a chin on the pillow/
Thanks for thwarting the manager talk, Neul-ah. I can talk to the kids and inform them about it? Maybe brainstorm a general topic or activities?

@✿ cha yujin ʲᶦⁿ *breathes a sigh of relief*;
Oh thank god, I wouldn't be able to take the losses in the divorce
*grins, tossing an arm over the back of the couch as i listen - nodding along in agreement because, despite the fact that the company isn't helping anyone now, we've got the shortest straw*
We can do a v-live, yeah. Don't really need permission so much as we need a chaperone, I'll text the managers and get one of them in on it

@✿ park haneul ᵍᵉᵘⁿʸᵃⁿᵍ //rolls my eyes casually, not digging into details, used to our regular way of light conversing; taking the corned with you in toe and perching on the couch as well, legs tucked to the side and a pillow to hug/
It's not so bad, we're not breaking up, Neul-ah, this is not a "we need to talk" talk.
//smiles behind the pillow, lightly teasing before i get back to the thing that gnaws/
Look. The company is not really doing anything to promote us right now, we'll lose fanbase if we don't do something about it.
Least we could do is hold a group v-live, no? Try to salvage some attention to us? Do we have to address someone at the company if we want to do something like that? Or just... do it on our own?

@✿ cha yujin ʲᶦⁿ *snorts lightly*
I mean, I wouldn't call being in my own room "walking around"
*concedes with a little nod, gestures for you to go ahead and following after to sit on the couch*
A discussion, huh? Sounds intense, what's on your mind?

@✿ park haneul ᵍᵉᵘⁿʸᵃⁿᵍ //inhales deeply with a slow exasperated sigh/
Why does everyone in this household insist on walking around topless.
//blinks in slight confusion, not realizing how tense i actually seem/
Wrong? Nothing's wrong. I have something of a discussion with you though, wanna come out so we don't stand in your doorstep?

@✿ cha yujin ʲᶦⁿ *grunts as a means to confirm my presence, slipping out of bed and into a shirt that's halfway on by the time i open the door*
Present, what's u-
*takes notice of your posture, quickly pulling the shirt all the way down in a wash of concern*
What's wrong?

@✿ park haneul ᵍᵉᵘⁿʸᵃⁿᵍ //knocks on the pale door of your bedroom, arms wrapped around myself in a telltale insecure gesture, fingers tapping down my arm/
Neul-ah? You in there?

@✿ zhang jia-er ʲᵃᶜᵏˢᵒⁿ Hmm maybe you did something to upset her? Unintentionally?
/takes out a pack of pepero stick from her pocket and noms it before offering you the pack/
Want some?

@✿ hong yubin ˢᵘⁿ It was just on the way, Yubs...
/ruffles my hair in frustration
It's not as if I need to wear a tuxedo before asking her, and she's not going to agree anyway. And come on, I always buy the stuff I use, it does no harm... and I don't use her stuff all the time. She just has something against me.

@✿ zhang jia-er ʲᵃᶜᵏˢᵒⁿ /blinks when Yujin stormed pass her then look back at you with a straight face. Pointing at your lower half/
And there is something wrong with you too.
Why would you ask her when you're almost like that? Of course she'd be pissed. And Yujin eonni doesn't really like to share her personal stuffs. You should've know by now tho, oppa.

@✿ hong yubin ˢᵘⁿ @✿ cha yujin ʲᶦⁿ /gets shoved by jin's tiny hand, huffing a little and watching you escape the situation before another lady appears up the stairs; shifts my eyes towards the unsuspecting yubin who narrowly escaped the drama before letting out a dry laughter, shaking my head, completely forgetting that i'm still undressed with only a towel around my groin

I swear there's something wrong with her...

@✿ zhang jia-er ʲᵃᶜᵏˢᵒⁿ //winces when you yell, every word feeling like a whip slashing across my back, making my own insecurities bleed/
//shudders as i slam some clothes in my bag and zip it, the noise loud and angry, before grabbing the mesh and clambering out of the room, pushing you out of the way with a hand stretched forward, unable to meet your eyes as i basically run the hall and down the flight of stairs, passing up Yubin on my way without so much as a look, convinced that communicating with you is impossible, but i just have to endure it for the sake of the group and my career/

@✿ cha yujin ʲᶦⁿ /is taken aback by your sudden outburst before cornering you in a confrontation, voice getting louder as well
And what the is wrong with you, Yujin? It's not as if we didn't work hard enough, man ing went on Show Me The Money and look where that got us? Nothing. Our given songs are , the company doesn't give a , and here I am trying to come up with something that resonates with the general public, trying to build up teamwork between each other but it's only you, it's always you with that scowling face and pissy attitude.
/sighs in exasperation before my eyes turn dark, throwing up hands of defeat
You know what? You go work yourself to the bone alone with no end goal in sight. I give up on trying to be close with you anymore. Go live with your own princess attitude.

@✿ zhang jia-er ʲᵃᶜᵏˢᵒⁿ It's not that...
//sighs again and drops the topic, preferring to not waste any more time on pointless banter/
//turns to get back to gathering my stuff, groaning when you pester more/
Because I have to work, Jackson! We all have to work harder, if we want to ever make it! It's been more than a year and...
//scoffs and cuts myself off again, crossing arms in front of my chest/
Why are you always pushing, huh? Why are you always crowding me up, what do you want?

@✿ cha yujin ʲᶦⁿ Hey, I'll get it for you once it runs out. We're group members, we can share stuff, can't we?
/reasons back, though i get a little disappointed when you reject the offer, wanting a chance to bond with my team mate
/comes up with another amazing offer after a few seconds of contemplation
Come on, why are you always so busy? What's there to practice alone, anyway. It'll be my treat. Let's go.

/yawns as she walks out from her room/
Morning

@✿ zhang jia-er ʲᵃᶜᵏˢᵒⁿ //sighs exasperated at the knock, in the middle of changing into casual clothes, ready to go out to the company/
//refusing to yell through the door, i go to open it and once again kick you away to leave me alone, but i cut off the rant when i see your state of (un)dress; sniffs the air/
Did you steal my bodywash? Again? Jackson, how many times...
/sighs and shakes my head, deciding you're not worth my words/
I'm busy. Going to practice at the company.

@✿ cha yujin ʲᶦⁿ pretty sure flabbiness doesn't give you confidence too, it's a lookism world out here in this country.
/shoots a gleaming, teasing grin at you, before your words left me a little confused
If it's not hair, then? Hey-
/hears the click of your door shutting and grimaces, shaking my head a little
Whatever.
/takes the steps up and makes a beeline to the common bathroom, quickly taking a brisk shower and making sure I didn't smell, then wrapping the lower half with the towel i used to dry myself, soaked clothes left in my own laundry basket, deciding to get to it later
/heads out, staring back at your closed door before I gave it a few knocks, calling out
You didn't answer my question earlier. Wanna grab something to munch?

@✿ zhang jia-er ʲᵃᶜᵏˢᵒⁿ //makes a face, but chooses not to respond to your blatant taunt, refusing to fall for this school-like teasing/
Loudness doesn't equal confidence.
//takes the steps in one gliding motion, only turning to look down at you from the top stair, and speak briefly before i take the turn and dive into the silence of the bedroom/
I wasn't talking about hair.

@✿ cha yujin ʲᶦⁿ I didn't say you were flabby, if you were insulted by it then maybe you should do something about it~
/lets out a teasing scoff, giving a wave of acknowledgement to your suggestion
Maybe I'll do just that, but I'll stay a gym pig till then. Strength and being toned gives confidence you know. You need some.
/slings the wet shirt over my shoulder, walking over to your direction, rolling my eyes at your words
Please, my short hair can't harm the drainage system, unlike yours.

@✿ zhang jia-er ʲᵃᶜᵏˢᵒⁿ //stops in my tracks, blinking offended/
Are you saying I'm *flabby*? I beg to differ - not everyone needs to be a gym pig to look good and toned. You should try joining in the dance studio someday - it's a great exercise and might actually make you better on stage.
//knowing the showers are also upstairs, which is where I was heading, i try to hurry along to get to the stairs before you could wipe any sweat on me/
Try not to clog the drain this time.

@✿ cha yujin ʲᶦⁿ It's not mindless, it keeps you toned, healthy and fit! Do you want to be flabby then?
/calls out, trying to push the exercise agenda on to you before doing what you said, opening the windows to let the air out
Boutta take a shower anyway. You wanna grab something to eat after I'm done?
