chi·me·ra

ok first things first.

taehyung runs the most aesthetic, atmospheric, coffee shop of all time.

doesn’t matter if he doesn’t own the place, he’s gonna decorate.

paintings of the walls by local artist and van gogh alike.

boardgames and puzzles on the shelves for rainy days.

will play uno with you on slow days.

and you know the playlist is gonna be on point.

also the most experimental with his drinks. 

like he’s gotten in trouble for experimenting with people’s orders, so now he gives away his frankendrinks for free.

and outgoing as he is he’s on first name basis with everyone who’s visited more than twice. 

he won’t remember your order, but he’ll remember your name, and/or give you a nickname, and/or draw you a correlating doodle on your to-go cup.

you’re probably a tired student in need of a quiet place to read and/or write your assignments. 

you’re gonna need caffeine too, so you might as well camp out in a coffee shop.

taehyung is chatty and wants to know what you’re studying for, what assignment you’re working on, and will you try his iced pumpkin-spice dirty chai latte with cinnamon?

and this being a perfect opportunity to procrastinate, so you strike up a friendship with the barista.

thus you end up being designated test-subject for his new and exciting concoctions. 

dw they’re only undrinkable 2% of the time. you’ll be fine.

taehyung thinks ur cute, but u r kinda clueless.

cue montage of taehyung trying to hint that he’s into you and you completely missing out because you’re either buried in your work or just think he’s being nice:

hearts in all your drinks, in the foam, in the sprinkles, in the whipped cream, even in the chocolate sauce. but that doesn’t have to mean anything right?? that’s just what baristas do, he’s just practicing his craft, right??

brings you pastries and cookies for free, making excuses that there’s something wrong with it so he was gonna throw it out anyway. 

“this cookie has too many chocolate chips, you can have it”

“is this pastry too sweet? you decide.”

“we can’t sell this, it’s on fire. here you go.”

“a time traveller licked this one.”

but he’s just trying to cheer you up because he sees how hard you’re studying, right???

dedicates chat baker songs to you, but he’s just being silly haha right ???

gazes longingly at you while he’s steaming the milk until it’s ruined, lmao he’s so easily distracted. totally not in love with you hahaha ha ha h a right???

except he totally is.

and you totally are in love with him too, but you don’t wanna seem like you’re assuming things or make him uncomfortable at his place of work because he’s a service worker yanno, he’s paid to be nice.

but one evening you’ve got an assignment due that night, and you were up all of last night writing, and you’re so exhausted no amount of coffee can keep awake and oopsy daisy you’ve fallen asleep at your table in the coffee shop.

and you won’t know this, but taehyung switches playlists to something quieter and tries to steam milk as quietly as possible which isn’t very that shit is noisy, but it’s the thought that counts yanno.

anyway it’s late, and eventually he has to close the shop and so he wakes you, with coffee of course.

and you panic because you only have an hour until you have to turn in your paper and it’ll take you half that time to get home.

taehyung is quick to comfort you though, it takes him about an hour to close up shop, and you’re more than welcome to stay until then.

this is lowkey a lie, it takes taehyung only half an hour to close up, but he wants to help you out and also just wants to be around you.

and you’re still sleepy and so grateful you blurt some nonsense along the lines of “omg thank you let me buy you coffee some time!!”

and he laughs and you blush because obviously he has more than enough coffee.

but, to your surprise he accepts. “as long as it’s not here”, he says. and he may be blushing a little too.

so he takes his time, cleans extra thoroughly, goes through some of the routines that are only necessary once a week, humming along to some soft jazz.

and the sleep has done you good, so you manage to tie up all your loose ends and complete your paper, with enough time spare to read through it once and correct some spelling. truly a miracle.

and imagine, as you leave together and he locks up your jacket gets caught in the door and he has to help you get it loose and oops he’s really close now

so close you can count his eyelashes and you can’t breathe he’s so pretty!!?!?!? and he smells like freshly ground coffee beans and cookies still warm from the oven, honestly he’s mouthwatering.

and he’s like “hey, actually, neither of us has eaten, you wanna get dinner right now instead of coffee later?” and hells yes you do, suddenly reminded that you are absolutely starving.

so you agree but he’s still so close, like all up in your personal space and you don’t mind exactly, but it makes your heart beat out of control and you’re pretty sure you’re blushing so hard you’re radiating heat.

and then he asks “so, do i have to wait until after the date to kiss you or..?”

and you choke on nothing because, “wait, we’re going on a date?”

“yes, i just decided.” and he steps impossibly closer. “i wanna date you, do you wanna date me?”

“i mean, yes, yeah, of course, i-”

“okay, then i’m just gonna kiss you now.”

and he does, and it’s just a sweet and gentle press of lips against yours, but he’s so close and warm and smells so nice it’s pretty much heavenly.

and after dinner he walk you home and kisses you some more before ushering you inside to get some much needed rest.

needless to say, studying at the coffee shop is a little more distracting after that.

taehyung will straight up push your books out of your lap and sit on you to pepper you with kisses, at least once a day.

and you finally notice the hearts in all your drinks, that are meant especially for you.

but also a lot more enjoyable!!

anyway, nsfw under the cut.

adventure time! 

jungkook isn’t the crown prince so outside of his princely duties he can go questing! exploring! adventuring!

of course his family doesn’t really approve of his activities, but they’ve basically struck up a bargain that he’ll attend court and such without making a fuss, as long as he gets to run around when he isn’t needed.

of course he has protection with him, the court approved putting together a little adventure party, which is basically just all his best knight friends, i’m sure you can guess who.

these guys have been together most of their lives, always getting in trouble as kids, climbing what they shouldn’t be climbing, fighting what they shouldn’t be fighting, eating what they- ok you get my point.

imagine a seamstress running frantically around after jungkook before an event because he always tears his clothing somehow.

or being chased out the kitchen before a big banquet with flour in his hair.

everyone loves him though.

he’s the baby of the palace, everyone dotes on him and lets him get away with mischief, ‘cause it’s cute.

and the people down in the villages love him too.

they’re always excited to see him ride out on an adventure, or to see him coming back form a quest.

and he’s often invited in for a drink at the taverns, to tell stories from one of his quests.

and if there’s any loot he shares it, because he doesn’t actually need any of the gold and jewellery. 

boy is more likely to like, take a hedgehog he rescued with him as a pet, or like, keep a really round rock he found in a river when he stopped for water, than he is to hang onto any of the valuable stuff.

people in the tavern be like “ooh, look at all that gold.” and jungkook will be like “ok sure but guys this rock is so smooth, u gotta feel it.”

probably has separate room in the palace just for his adventure keepsakes, and he keeps it very organised and tidy.

oh and people write songs and poetry about jungkook and his brave knights’ many adventures, but the best songs are of course his own.

because, like any royal, jungkook is highly educated.

in everything from politic and war, to the arts.

and, like any good royal, he’s also a brilliant poet.

so how did you two meet? ok story time

you live in the woods somewhere far away, at the bottom of a mountain, just u and ur doggo.

you have a little cottage that’s been with your family in generations, it’s where you’ve grown up and you didn’t really know much else so you stayed. 

you travel to the nearest villages if you need something, about a day’s journey, but you’ve never felt very welcome. 

they’re not mean, it’s just- you’re an outsider, and an outsider you shall remain.

so your doggo wakes you up one morning and you’re like?? what is it

it’s clear the doggo has found something outside and desperately needs you to come see.

you’re like, did you find another baby bird that’s fallen out of its nest?? do i gotta raise a NOTHEr baby bird ?? istg

the answer is no, but also yes.

jungkook looks to be fast asleep in the moss and soft heather, he’s got a few scratches, but he’s got lovely pink nose and lips and seems quite healthy.

you gently prod him awake like, u ok my guy ?? you’re gonna catch a cold come have some tea.

he’s a little spooked at first, with his big round eyes snapping open to stare at you, rendering you a little speechless at first. 

but eventually you explain that you live here at the bottom of the mountain and that your dog just have smelled him because they woke you up to come find him.

doggo takes the opportunity to introduce themselves, you know, the way dogs do, and that’d the first time you hear jungkook giggle, and suddenly you understand what your grandma was warning you about when she said to stay away from the pretty boys.

you invite him to come warm himself in your cottage, you just put a log on the fire before going out, so it should be warming up by now.

he’s like umm uh sure

and you’re not sure why he’s so hesitant, you’re not a very intimidating figure even though you live in the woods by yourself.

but then as the two of you start making your way back to your cottage you start to realise he has some difficulty keeping up with you.

it’s dark, but you still se him grimace when you turn to look for him.

“oh no, you must be hurt!” how silly of you, why else would he be sleeping in the woods behind your house.

“ah, no it’s- i’m just, uh... yeah. okay, yes.”

turns out he’s twisted his ankle falling from his horse, and the way down the mountain in the night has only made it worse.

you help support him the rest of the way back, much to his embarrassment.

as you sit him by the fire and make tea and a little breakfast he explains that he was on his way back home from his quest when he lost his companions, and later his horse when it got spooked. 

when he finally got to the bottom of the mountain, which had taken him almost all night, he was exhausted and fell asleep as soon as he sat down to rest a little.

he seems a little embarrassed, so you tell him it’s the sort of thing that could happen to anyone, and maybe you tell him that story about how you fell down the mountain as a child and almost scared your grandmother to death, but by some miracle you survived with barely a scratch. 

anyway, he’s lucky you found him.

jungkook asks how far the nearest village is. his friends will be looking for him and perhaps he can find a horse there, or send word of his whereabouts.

you tell him it’s about a day’s walk and he’s not going anywhere on his ankle, it needs at least a few days rest, but he’s welcome to stay with you in the meanwhile.

in that case his friends will probably go back home, and gather a party to come search for him, it might take a few days.

again, he’s embarrassed but very thankful, and you find it adorable.

he is very cute actually.

like super handsome, he’s tall and seems strong, he’s so well-spoken and well-mannered he seems almost otherworldly to you, but he has a shyness to him, and a playfulness, and the way he takes everything in with his wide, enthusiastic eyes really adds to his boyish charm.

as the sun comes up you get some water so he can wash up, and help clean the scratches on his face and neck.

he’s actually?? so pretty ?? it’s very distracting, you’ve never seen anyone that looks like this and especially when he blushes wow

you think it’s just because he’s embarrassed, but in actuality it’s because you’re really close and kinda very cute and you smell so nice?? like earthy and warm and dried flowers and herbs.

you spend your day like you usually would, but with jungkook helping out where he can, like chopping wood because he can do that seated.

and it’s so nice to have his company tbh, you two talk about everything and nothing, and in the evening you make dinner, and sit by the fire in the dark.

and that’s when he starts humming.

and you’re like?? omg what is this

you’ve only ever heard your grandmother sing, or like drunk people in taverns, and you only know a handful of songs so this is new!!!

you ask him to sing for you, and he’s a little flustered but he does so gladly.

and it’s a m a z i n g omg let me tell you

imagine sitting by the fire? in a little cottage miles away from anything? cozied up with your doggo and a cup of tea? and jungkook? singing? songs about epic battles and tragic romances and awesome adventures?

you make him sing every song he knows and eventually you ask to hear some of them again, and you two sit up sooo late sharing songs and stories.

jungkook never mentions he’s a prince though.

you let him have the bed and sleep in a chair by the fire that night, although it takes a while to convince him.

another day goes by like that, and you’ve come to really enjoy his company.

you know he has to leave, but you know it’s going to be strange to be so alone again when he does, and you find yourself wishing he could stay forever.

you were never discontent with your life, but you realise you like sharing it with someone.

that night he insists you sleep in the bed, and after a little arguing you agree, but only if he'll sleep in it too.

and he’s very flustered but he agrees and you pretend you’re not flustered too.

you two sat up until late again, talking and singing, but it’s hard to fall asleep with all the butterflies in your stomach, and he smells so nice??

like, you don’t know what expensive smells like. 

but that’s what he smells like. 

just the lingering remains of exotic spices and perfumed oils.

it’s really nice to wake up next to jungkook.

like, really, really nice. 

like, your heart swells with warmth and fluff and it feels like it’s gonna burst or do a dance or something so you have to get out of bed, and only watch him sleep for a very brief minute.

at breakfast you notice that one of the scratches on his forehead looks a little inflamed, so you go out and pick some healing herbs while he chops more wood.

you’re both very quiet as you apply the paste you’ve made of the herbs to the cut.

he’s sitting in the chair, you standing over him, and watches you so closely with his shiny rounds eyes that it gets very hard to focus.

as you finish up you meet his gaze and find it impossible to pull away like you had intended to do.

without a word, like magnets, the two of you are drawn to one another and meet in a kiss.

carefully, he wraps his arms around you and scoops you into his lap, and you in turn wrap your arms around his shoulders and deepen the kiss.

and then the doggo barks.

you pull away from each other but can’t look away, just smiling shyly at one another for a moment before the dog barks again, and you decide you should probably check it out.

outside, you call the doggo and they appear through the trees, followed by jungkook’s search party.

you feel a little forlorn as they greet one another as old friends and you realise you will have to say goodbye to jungkook already. 

but you knew it would happen eventually, so you suck it up.

“are you ready to leave, your majesty?”

“your majesty?” because of course he is, i mean, look at him.

cat’s outta the bag.

jungkook realises all too late that he has to leave you too, and makes a hurried excuse that he has to fetch something inside, to get you alone.

once you’re alone he kisses you passionately and tells you in a rush that he’s a prince, that you are the most enchanting person he has ever met and that he will return to you as soon as he can, that while he is gone he leaves with heart with you.

and then he leaves.

and you don’t know this but when he comes home he writes many sonnets and sings many songs about you, and your little cottage in the woods, by the foot of the mountain.

so much so that he begins a whole new movement in literature, a genre idealising the simple life, chopping wood, gathering herbs in the woods and raising baby birds, all with the one you love, miles away from anyone or anything.

ok let’s not kid ourselves

boy’s already a model

he’s got the body.

got the looks.

what can i say, he’s no super model (too clumsy), but he get’s around with the more diverse castings yanno

probably got started on instagram,

with his #kimdaily outfits

which are sometimes just chill, pretty, sporty, casual, cool

and other times completely wacky and just ??? how did you even think to wear those ??? at the same time?? together ???

he always looks good tho

but some looks will give you whiplash. ur warned.

but that’s part of his appeal tbh

hhhh probably gains a lot of popularity when one of those more ‘out there’ outfits circulates on twitter or reddit and people are like “hOW does he make that work??? why does it look good??? is he just that hot??”

the answer is yes.

from there he builds a solid following.

for his great looks, great fashion sense, and his 4am instagram stories that are just a black pic with like a three paragraph text about how rain might feel if it had feelings.

also, solid music recommendations omg 

you probably make ur own spotify playlist with just his recommendations.

ok ok so you best bELIEVE when this boy finally gets cast for a show he’s gonna fall on his ass and go viral

claim to fame baby

probably becomes a meme and rolls with it tbh

like he’ll share the memes in his story, so as not to ruin the ・ﾟ:*aesthetic*:・ﾟand react to them and shit

but then also get on live and talk at length about how faceplanting on the catwalk impacts your self-esteem, how he’s habit he could benefit positively from such an embarrassing moment, and how there’s a lesson for everyone here, and that he hopes all our embarrassing moments may in some way benefit us one day.

he’s such a sweetheart im-

so you might be a stylist?

a hair stylist?

makeup artist?

fellow model?

whatever you’re comfortable with.

you definitely see him on instagram first tho

you came for the memes but are super impressed with his profile and end up staying for the music.

...... and him.

he’s hot, come on.

also 90% of networking is done on instagram these days let us be real.

okay so oNE DAY, or like late evening, who cares

he post a music recommendation and you’re like !!!!!!!!

it’s that low key indie band with like only one EP out that you found on some obscure spotify playlist and you’ve been jamming to since october

and apparently namjoon has too because they’ve released a new single and you didn’t even know ????

and you’re so excited your fingers slip and oopsie you’ve sent a short but rambling message explaining exactly that into his DM’s

instant regret.

then the anxiety bubbles up in you.

and then you calm yourself and convince yourself that he gets a LOT of messages he probably won’t even see yours, so it’s fine it’s fine it’s-

next morning you have a reply

a new follow

and a mcfUCKING LIKE ON A PICTURE OF YOU FROM TWO WEEKS AGO

yikes, you didn’t even have time to give your feed a spring cleaning

you just like his short “ikr!!!!”, too mortified to reply.

alas, the regrets!

but also

the butterflies.

then you see him at an event one time.

it’s fashion week, you’re hecking busy and about to leave because it’s like midnight and you’ve got places to be tomorrow

but it’s always so strange to see people from insta irl like ??? all those dimensions??? you really be lookign like that ??? damn.

once you’ve stared long enough to be certain that’s actually what he looks like (so handome!!! so tall!!!! wtf!!!! who allowed this??) you turn to leave just as he glances up and cetches your eye for like the tiniest fraction of a second

and you hightail it outta there and hope to heaven he doesn’t know you were staring.

but he likes your pic from the party the next morning and you almost choke on your coffee and the lump in your throat stays there all day

and you’re like, am i?? catching feelings ??? for the catwalk faceplant guy??? you’ve never even talked to the man smh

he’s fucking hot tho.

so, fashion week ends and with it comes another party

you can finally relax, celebrate, wind down from the long week.

yA THOUGHT lmao

you’re talking to some designer about their next project and they’re going on about this instagram dude who’s already on board when they start waving someone over like “hey hey, there he is, y/n have you met kim namjoon yet?”

you turn around you’re like !!!!! fuck. he’s so much taller up close.

“hey, no, yeah, no, but i’ve seen you on, uh, on instagram. i think.” smooth, y/n.

after introductions, the designer gets pulled along into some other conversation and you and namjoon are kinda awkward for a minute.

you just sip your drink like ‘fuck fuck fuckfuck fuck aaaaaaa’

but then he asks you easy questions about what you do and what you’ve been working on this week and it’s the same thing you’ve been talking about with everyone you’ve met this week so it goes pretty smoothly

he makes it easy for you, like he’s very attentive, nods along enthusiastically asking follow-up questions and seems genuinely interested in your work it’s so nice! he’s so nice!

and you ask him the same things you’ve asked everyone else this week like you haven’t seen everything on his instagram already.

actually you’ve missed a few things since you’ve been so busy and your interest is genuine, before you know it the two of you are at a table and getting along like a house on fire, showing each other pics from the week.

he asks you send him a pic from one of the shows he didn’t get to see and when he do he’s sees your old messages and is like ?? oh !!

i mean, he totally knew it was you, but he had forgotten the part about that obscure indie band and the new single, so he shows you!

you’ve been following them even closer since then so you know they’re playing a gig in like two weeks and you tell him.

turns out he’s missed this info because of fashion week and he’s super excited!! you guys have to go together!!!¨

“i mean, we don’t have to- it’s just, i don’t know anyone else who listens to them, i could probably go alone, but, you know, it would be cool-”

and of course you’ll go with him, so you two exchange numbers and end up texting the next two weeks.

at first you’re just making tentative plans to meet and go to to the gig, but then there’s a gallery opening the same day, and you know this realy good thrift shop nearby that he should check out, and you guys should get dinner before because namjoon knows this really cool place and-

and it’s a date.

namjoon has every intention to kiss you that night after the gig, but he wants to ask you first and he’s not sure exactly how so he’s just like “um ??? can i ??? uhhh ?? do you ??? uh”

and ur like, “hey, namjoon, i really want u to kiss me, please?”

the rest is history.

you two are too cute, with your instagram aesthetic and lowkey couple outfits, and highkey couple pics, i’d follow.

you two would be gOALS, and it does wonders for both your careers tbh

omg imagine all the cool collaborations you two could do.

and eventually namjoon would go viral again when the paparazzi captures him spilling his coffee and your cute reaction.

but the best thing about dating model namjoon is he makes you your very own playlist.

and you get your very own story highlight with all the aesthetic pics he snaps of you just like buying milk and stealing his fries, and exploring the city on sundays afternoons, going vintage shopping and reading in the park, titled: “bae.” with every colour heart.

hyping each other in the comments always.

and the thirst omg

anyway, nsfw under the cut.

shame this isn’t a request because it’s a good one.

seokjin:

at the supermarket.

seokjin is the most outgoing towards strangers of the bunch so i feel like he’d be the most likely to strike up conversation with someone. 

by the vegetables.

maybe you’re giggling to yourself because that carrot looks like it has a nose.

maybe he shows you a frowny potato.

holds up a beet like “i’m feeling pretty upbeet today.”

“you deserve a beeting for that one.”

“oh, can you hear my heartbeet?”

“okay, let’s not beet around the bush.”

next thing you know he’s making you dinner.

yoongi:

coffee shop.

idk maybe the baristas keep confusing your orders because you always drink the same thing.

maybe you have to share a table when the shop is full.

maybe you start talking in the queue about the shop’s terrible music.

maybe you spill his coffee once and have to buy him another.

or maybe you’re the cute barista that always tries to cheer him up a bit when he comes in for coffee four times a day.

all i know is yoongi drinks a lot of coffee.

so that’d be the place he’s most likely to interact with new people.

namjoon:

the park.

it’s no secret where namjoon likes to go to be by himself.

maybe you share a bench.

or the shade of a tree.

maybe you’re both reading the same book.

or maybe you tell him you like his outfit.

either way he’d be thrilled to have an interest in common.

and will talk your ear off because the boy is passionate ok.

and he has a lot to say about the author, or how he put his outfit together this morning.

and before you know it you’re going to thrift shops looking for something unique and cafés to read and talk amongst yourselves.

hoseok:

exhibition.

you’re at a gallery or museum and so is he.

maybe you have an itching question about one of the pieces and end up discussing it with him.

maybe he asks you to take his picture.

eventually you go get coffee to talk about this and other exhibits you’ve attended.

and meet up again to go see a new exhibition together.

jimin:

through dance.

let’s just say i’d be very surprised if jimin doesn’t end up with a dancer of some sort.

dance is jimin’s first love in so many ways and he spends a lot of his time practicing.

i think he’d like someone he could share that with, someone he can both work and play with.

maybe you share a studio.

maybe you attend a workshop together.

maybe you work with him.

maybe he helps you with a particularly difficult routine.

or maybe one of you sees the other perform and talks to the other after.

and soon enough you’re doing couple choreography.

taehyung:

in the line to the bathroom.

idk but put taehyung in a line of people waiting quietly and it’s only a matter of time before he starts a conversation.

he’ll open up with a simple comment about your hair.

or shoes 

or a complex fact about space that namjoon told him the other day.

and if you respond well to it, congratulations you have a new friend.

so you exchange numbers.

going from there is the tricky part, especially when he gives you the cold shoulder and tries very hard to act cool.

but if he thinks you’re cute it’s gonna show.

jungkook:

arcade.

you just came to get rid of some spare change but this boy came to WIN.

it’s quite a sight tbh he really shows that basketball game who’s boss.

so you go shoot some hoops on the game next to him, and things start getting pretty competitive when the game announces your points.

when you’re done he’s like “good game.”

“lol i surrender, you’re too good at this.”

next thing you know you’re shooting zombies together.

and jungkook kicks your ass in dance dance revolution.

most popular dance teacher at the studio.

teaches hiphop and street dance to all ages.

also leads a dance crew.

often drops in on other classes just to generally spread cheer and shout encouragement.

because imagine hobi doing ballet with toddlers in his hiphop gear.

or dancing waltz with seniors in his sneakers.

he lights up the room always, everyone loves him he's so much fun.

he's pretty good at literally all the dances too he's just amazing.

sadly you're not in any of his classes, but you've seen him around.

he's dropped in on your zumba class twice maybe and he's magnificent, he learns the choreo so fast and completely outshines everyone even the instructor like it’s not the least bit fair to anyone he’s so good.

so naturally, when your instructor calls in sick, he's asked to step in and lead you in zumba.

and like, he doesn't even hesitate.

sure, he doesn't know the first thing about zumba and he doesn’t know the choreo and the class is in ten minutes but he’s down.

and when he's watched the choreo video a few times he's ready to go.

you might expect him to be a little awkward but nope

if anyone had any doubts, j-hope erases them all within the first few minutes.

he's not entirely confident in the choreo, so he just freestyles some parts and encourages you all to just feel the music and go with it if you fall out of step.

and honestly you’ve been so motivated to give it your all, and never have you felt so free to move, and never have you had so much fun dancing.

he even dances around the room and with you all individually.

and you might get all flustered and trip over yourself a little before he gets to you but you know hobi, he’s all smiles and positivity and encouragement and you don’t feel the least bit embarrassed.

and when he announces class is over you're all like what??? no :(

because it only felt like five minutes and you never wanted it to end.

and yeah you’re exhausted but you could still go on for hours and how ?? is he so ?? handsome ?? all sweaty and out of breath he still glows like a damn ray of sunshine you just wanna bask in his warmth for all eternity amirite

someone asks if he can be your instructor forever and he's like haha sorry you'll just have to take my classes.

and someone else heard he had a competition coming up and he's like “yeah !!!!! please attend it's gonna be so much fun and maybe we'll even win idk but we go out for chicken afterwards you should all come!”

and somehow they wrestle him into giving you a preview and ohhh boy does he.

holy hell you've never seen someone move like that up close and if you weren't already so breathless he'd have taken your breath away for sure.

ur like ???? to hell with zumba i wanna do that!!!

and you have to talk to this sunshine he's so lovely you just gravitate towards him and as people start to leave you're like “how??? do you do that.”

“what.”

“that thing when you’re like bam and it’s like dak”

“ohhh the popping?”

“yes omg can you show me”

and he does and you don't really get it on the first twelve tries but he's so helpful and encouraging you're like wow! i need this person in my life.

so next week, guess who shows up at his hiphop beginners class? it you.

and he's so happy to see you he's like hEY we have a new person

and of course you're not the only one there's like three other people from your zumba class attending and one of them is like welp yeah i guess we fell for your charms aha

and he blUSHES and goes all giggly but then glances over at you kinda sneakily to check your reaction and you're like gULP

your eyes meet for just a split second and you could swear the whole world stopped turning because the moment felt infinite.

and then it’s over and you realise you have a big stupid crush on your dance teacher.

so you turn up to support him at their competition and of course they win but when you go to congratulate him you end up getting kinda squished together in a group hug.

you’re both out of breath and it’s intimate and a little awkward, but afterwards when you’re let go and you’re still trying hard not to think about how he feels so nice so close to you, how you could just about feel his heartbeat against you, how incredibly good he smells, how warm and firm he felt, how--

ok anyway he smiles sheepishly and apologises for his friends, wondering if you’re okay.

honestly he’s so sweet it melts your heart.

after that tbh you two are always making eyes at each other and it’s so painfully obvious to everyone they’re just waiting for it to dawn on you two.

people are always dropping hints like when you’re chatting with hobi before class and someone walks by like “oohhhhh hope i’m not interrupting somethiiiiing”

or when you stay after class to ask about a particular move and jimin and taehyung are up against the glass making kissy faces at him when you’re not looking.

eventually you just end up having dinner together after class and you don’t even know who asked who to dinner, it just happened.

and you’re both so eager to spend time with one another that before either of you knows it it’s become A Thing and i guess ?? you’re sort of ?? seeing each other ????

you just hadn’t realised it until you discover everyone thinks you’re finally together oops

and you’re lowkey hella excited and kinda nervous when you confront hobi with this like “omg did you know ???? people think we’re a couple lol hilarious”

and he’s like “yeah,,,,,,,,listen,,,,,,,,, i kinda just ran with it.”

turns out he knew for like two weeks and he didn’t know what to say or do about it.

and you’re like “wait, are we dating?? but we,,, haven’t even,,,, kissed??”

and he mumbles something about “well,,,yanno,,,,if you wanna,,,”

but you both get shy and can’t even look at each other it’s v cute.

and next time you stay after class yoongi comes to fetch hobi because he promised to help with something.

and yoongi bursts in like “okok enough of that we gotta go.”

hobi’s like “ok wait we were just gonna--”

“i said enough just kiss them already we gotta go!”

you and hoseok just look at each other kinda wide eyed and then he does, hobi kisses you and it’s quick and soft and perfect, and then yoongi drags him away.

and then hoseok comes running back for another kiss.

and another.

and a total of four probably until yoongi recruits jungkook to carry hobi the hell out of there.

anyway, nsfw under the cut.

the green in his hair is,,,,,,, natural?

it grows fast and tends to stick out as if it grows in completely different directions from the rest of his hair.

earning him nicknames like seaweed and kelp-head.

although he wasn’t actually born with magic he was raised by witches so he knows his way around it and it’s a pretty integral part of his life.

dabbles mostly in herbs and alchemy etc.

and whatever magic surrounds him is either the leftover spell work of those who raised him or borrowed from nature.

also he speaks to animals.

like he doesn’t have full conversations with them but they listen and understand him and he can generally guess what they want.

studies botany but gets in a lot of arguments with his professors because he has a less scientific view of nature.

environmental enthusiast.

has a home and everything but probably spends most of his summers living up a tree taking care of woodland animals.

you’ve caught him muttering to squirrels a few times.

seen him chased across campus by literally every cat in the area.

but you just assumed he’s nice and likes to feed the animals.

a lot of socks have been disappearing from around your dorm lately and you thought maybe someone was pulling a prank, when taehyung one day approaches you with a bag full of odd socks.

he explains that the magpie living near your dorm recently had its nest destroyed and was compensating, but that he’s “had a word with him and he won’t do it again.”

like most people you just assumed he was joking.

but he doesn’t really try to hide any of this, if someone asks why he’s so weird he’ll just frown and say he was raised by witches, like lmao what did you expect.

then a week later you come across him making a splint for a pigeon with a broken wing out of popsicle sticks and you realise you need to get to know this boy because?????? who even does that ???

and you bump into him again later that same week but this time he has ??? a squirrel ??? in his hair ???

you’re like “whu h?U???” because holy shit cute

and he’s like “yeah she likes the smell of my shampoo.”

you ask how he knows and he just shrugs.

and when the squirrel tugs too hard he’s like “ouch okay that’s enough.”

and she just like, scampers off and you’re like ??????????

and he just smiles.

after that you keep finding individual wildflowers everywhere around your dorm and wherever you go on campus.

like someone’s been picking them and leaving them around the place for you to find.

and the birds singing outside your window in the morning have increased like tenfold in number.

you have no idea this is taehyung basically attempting to court you.

not until a magpie drops a four-leaf clover on you one morning, a squirrel scampers up to you with a daisy while you’re reading in the shade for a tree, and when you look up there he is, scratching the back of his neck and mumbling something about a picnic.

just imagine how bright he’d smile when you accept his invitation.

the rest, as they say, is history.

taehyung knows all the best spots for camping and tree-climbing and berry-picking and picnics and you two go on so many adventures exploring the wilderness surrounding your little town.

he never falls out of a tree?

like he literally can’t because he was enchanted as a kid.

so you bet your butt he’s gonna hang upside down and make you do a spider-man kiss with him.

he sends you love notes by squirrel and cat and even a duck one time.

and when summer comes around he invites you to stay with him in his tree house and help him take care of the animals.

and he tells you about all the silly names he gave to plants as a kid before he studied and learned their actual names.

you literally always have fresh flowers in your hair, don’t ask me how or where they come from maybe they grow there idk.

always always always holding hands, listen this boy has no intentions of ever letting you go no way nope

and you two are just very much in love and enjoying nature and each other and everywhere you go flowers bloom tbh bless :’)

anyway, nsfw under the cut.

you came for the quiet, and stayed for the atmosphere.

at least that’s what you tell yourself.

you certainly didn’t come here for the company.

and by company i mean the irresistibly charming, incredibly handsome, and persistently nosy bartender who’s always peaking at your notes.

you just wanted a quiet place to write.

the lighting is pretty bad late in the evenings, but the quiet jazz that drifts through the establishment is soothing, and not as distracting to your writing as you thought it might be.

not as distracting as kai’s constant humming, singing, and occasional tap-dancing from behind the bar or weaving in between tables.

so you stay.

and eventually you fall into a habit of seeking this place out at least once a week, and staying, sometimes all night.

writing, like everything else, becomes easier with practice, becomes a habit like any other and in the end the bar seems to bring the writing out of you all by itself.

you stay because it’s effortless.

whenever you’re stuck, you’ve written yourself into a corner, you’re lost or just uninspired all you have to do is sit for a while and give yourself time to think. just close your eyes and wait.

old jazz standards inspire you mostly to write romance. 

sarah vaughan and peggy lee place words in your character’s mouths. 

and more often than not you find yourself glancing to the bartender for a description, a characteristic.

one male lead may get his hands, another his nose. you give one love interest his soft shapely lips, another his laugh. there’s even an antagonist with his jawline.

and all the while you have to scowl and shoo and scold him for trying to spy on your indulgent scribbles.

he’s not a friend exactly, you’ve never met him outside this place, but you laugh and joke and you’d maybe consider him a good acquaintance.

one evening nearing valentine’s day he comes over with a glass of red wine and his lips pressed into a mysterious line.

“from a secret admirer.” he explains with a half-smile and a cocked brow.

there’s a note too.

“you’re lovely.” it reads.

spoiler alert: it’s from him.

and you’re completely oblivious, wondering who’s eye you’ve caught.

you became so comfortable here you didn’t think of it as “going out” and weren’t expecting for anybody to try and pick you up.

yet here you are.

but no more drinks or notes come that night and no one approaches you and you pretty much forget about it after a few more uneventful evenings.

then there’s another note carrying a similar sentiment.

signed, “jongin”.

you don’t know a jongin. 

you only know kai.

you’ve spoken to a few of the pianists that come through on the nights there’s live music, even exchanged a few words with a handsome saxophonist, maybe it’s one of them?

you ask kai and he laughs, “i’ll give you a hint.”

and that way you begin a game of twenty questions, one each evening you spend at the bar, with him.

it takes you an embarrassingly long time to catch on, and in the meanwhile the notes keep coming, each more charming than the next.

and you’re absolutely distracted from your writing, you begin spending more time at the bar than at your usual table and hardly get anything done anymore.

but you don’t mind because for once your life holds more potential and intriguing possibility than your fiction.

and eventually you just ask one of the pianists if they know a jongin and they look at you like ??? “you mean,,,,,,,,,,,, like,,,,,,,,,, the bartender?”

jongin has his back to you at the time, which is good because you feel like the world’s greatest dumbass and gawp at him for a good minute.

and now it’s your turn to leave him a few notes because “how do you ask a bartender out for a drink?” and “where do bartenders go out for drinks?”

and that way you get into the habit of staying after closing time so you can make out and stare at his ass while he stacks chairs and wipes tables.

and yeah you’ve lost your favourite writing spot to a new handful of tempting distractions but you’ve gained so much more.

so you stay.

why did you even hire this mess

so, you’re an important person, right ??? you’re busy you’ve got shit to do and you need help staying on top of all of it so

why not make some lucky intern your secretary?

what could possibly go wrong ???? hM M ?????

,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, oh boy.

lowkey this is also your perfect opportunity to rescue the newest addition to the team of interns.

said team have been working their butts off for months so changkyun, the latest and youngest addition, hasn’t been very well received.

they feel he’s undeserving of the position and don’t like how he, younger and less experienced, simply swooped in and took over after their friend, intern song, got kicked out of the program.

changkyun understands their reservations, but it’s been hard on him.

you decide to put in an official request with your suggestion to the administration after you hear he’s been crying in the bathroom lately.

because lowkey you had a similarly difficult transition when you got transferred here from another branch and spent half your first year doing the same thing, so you can sympathise.

when he gets the news he realises immediately that you’ve taken pity on him and pretty much saved his ass, and all but throws himself at your feet to pledge his allegiance.

“it’s just,,,,,,, a secretary position,,,,,,,,, chill.”

honestly though it’s kinda charming how he can be so serious and so silly at the same time.

despite his stoicism and that big manly voice he’s got an undeniable boyish charm about him, and it’s obvious by the way he does everything anyone says that he just really wants to fit in and be liked.

idk he’s just one contradiction after another this boy

like he’s super serious around you and does his best to seem professional but keeps referring to you as an older friend by mistake, instead of as his superior.

which is equally embarrassing for the both of you, but everyone else finds it hilarious.

and that’s when the rest of the interns start warming up to him and he learns to laugh with them, starts clowning around with minhyuk and jooheon, pulling pranks on hyunwoo and kihyun, etc.

he always ends up embarrassing himself but it doesn’t seem to matter to him as long as he’s part of the team.

he gets bolder and more comfortable around the office after that.

and you’re happy to see him get along with his peers but you still need him to help you out at work so eventually you call him in for a meeting.

you tell him it’s nice that he’s comfortable but he can’t let his work suffer like this and he agrees with you that it’s not right but

his solution ???? is to clown around with you as well.

y’know, he just wants to be silly and make people laugh because, unlike filing and answering emails and phone calls and scheduling your meetings, it’s something he knows he’s good at.

that and,,,,, you’re kinda,,,, cute,,,, when you laugh,,,,, or whatever.

he doesn’t tell you that much of course.

but, because he feels he owes you for everything good that’s happened to him, he keeps an eye out for when you’re having a hard time or a bad day, and all the others know not to prank you.

he’ll look serious and hand you “important phone messages” on increasingly colourful post-it notes. which are usually just bad drawings or scribbled jokes and cringe-y puns.

he’ll pull silly faces at you in meetings when no one else is looking.

or he’ll hide encouraging messages on notes in your paperwork.

he’ll even share snacks from his secret stash with you, hiding them where he knows you’ll find them whenever you’re working late or you’ve been too busy to get lunch.

speaking of, you’re working late one evening when he goes out to buy you coffee but when he comes back you’ve fallen asleep on your paperwork.

he doesn’t have the heart to wake you up immediately so he lets you sleep a lil while.

and he knows it’s kinda creepy but he watches you because you look so nice and peaceful and he just likes you a lot ok

meanwhile he tries to write you a few silly post-its he can confess with but in the end he just doesn’t have the nerve and shakes you awake to tell you “you were drooling on the paperwork” instead.

you know he likes you tho

it’s kinda obvious and everyone keeps telling you how he watches you like a lost puppy when you’re not looking.

so you drop a few hints, but you try not to be inappropriate since you’re his boss and everything.

eventually, with the support and constant pestering of his hyungs, he musters up the courage to drop off a report with a post-it wondering whether he can “take you to lunch some time (like a date or just so you don’t starve to death)? yes or no” complete with boxes you can tick and everything.

if i were you i’d track him down that instant and pull him into the nearest supply closet by his tie and make out for the rest of the day but ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ that’s just my opinion.

honestly this sweet boy he’s kinda awkward but his intentions are the best and the purest and he does his best to be a good worker and boyfriend.

lie when he hides chocolates all over your office for valentines day.

it’s kinda messy, but still a sweet gesture.

honestly not a great secretary but a great boyfriend.

he knows exactly how to make you laugh and when to brighten your day.

you two always have each other’s backs, at work and in life, and he’ll always be there to pick you up on a bad day or a late night and carry your sleepy ass home if he has to.

-- i immediately thought of sam riley in maleficent.

a black cat, how predictable.

needless to say this was not what you had in mind when you summoned a demon companion.

yeah, you got a demon in cat form.

it takes you a while to realise that’s what he is though, at first you just thought you’d botched the summoning and went on with your day.

but now this cat has been chilling in your garden for a week and it keeps trying to get in and it doesn’t have a collar or anything.

also instead of shooing when you tell it to the cat just gives you the ugliest look and that should be possible for a cat to be so expressive???

eventually you let him in though because he’s not going anywhere and it’s cold and he’s probably hungry.

and you think, fuck it, if you’re gonna be a witch you might as well have a black cat, right? why not

so you take him to the vet to make sure he’s healthy and vaccinated and he almost scratches their eyes out.

but other than that he’s a pretty chill cat, sleeps all day, pitter-patters around the house all night. lowkey loves to cuddle.

you name him suga.

he doesn’t go out much? but likes to follow you around when you go out.

or anywhere else for that matter.

but not in an obvious way like he’s not always on your heels.

tsundere cat. 

most of the time he acts like he doesn’t even know you exist.

but he keeps turning up wherever you are.

included, but not limited to, on the bus, inside the library, bathhouses, at the dentist, the supermarket, and your mom’s house ?????

basically anywhere except church.

eventually you just start talking to him because it feels,,,,,,, natural.

like i said, he’s very expressive, and a lot of the time you almost feel like he’s really understanding you and to a certain degree giving you answers.

you’re starting to suspect him because honestly some of the shit this kitty gets into should be impossible.

like he once put out a fire ????? just casually spilled some water and saved your life and your house from burning down ??

keeps “accidentally” knocking your things over and has saved you from making some pretty bad magic mistakes that way.

eventually he just gets enough of your clueless ass and pulls up a wikipedia page on witches’ familiars for you to find the next time you use the computer.

it’s kinda embarrassing it took you this long to find out.

you try to communicate directly with him after that but he won’t have his sleep interrupted, refuses to “meow once for yes and twice for no”, and leaves you no other choice than to look for spells to make him talk.

bad idea.

yoongi has been a cat for a veeery long time, he’s grown quite comfortable and then you have to come and make him human.

a very naked human, in desperate need of a wash and a haircut.

he doesn’t like being without fur and bundles up nice and cosy immediately in his usual spot on the couch.

but also hasn’t had a bath in this form in probably centuries so he agrees to have one but you have to promise to turn him back or at least make his human form optional.

let’s not forget this also puts you in a very awkward position, trying to think of all the things you have said or done in front of yoongi when you thought he was just a cat.

things are kinda tense, to say the least.

but for the next few weeks you experiment with spells and potions in hopes of making things right again, or at least better.

after a while it becomes apparent that you are hopeless at this and yoongi helps you out reluctantly.

also because he’s having some real trouble getting used to his human form, not able to balance like before without his tail.

hilarity ensues when you work your way through a wide variety of failed attempts.

yoongi’s personal favourite being the one where he has cat ears, whiskers, and a tail, but is otherwise human.

he stays that way for a while. it’s,,,,,,,,,,,,, fine. or whatever.

also he doesn’t fit on the couch anymore, so he shares your bed, but that’s fine because he’s usually up at night.

except for when he isn’t. like in the very early mornings.

and as you gradually warm up to each other and things get less awkward, you just kind of slip into this comfortable intimacy.

and when you finally find the right potion for yoongi to shift between forms at will, things between you get easy, and playful, and flirtatious.

before you know it he’s sharing your bed all hours of the day and even night if you know what i mean wink wonk.

in the end, with yoongi’s watchful presence and sarcastic guidance you’ll grow to be an accomplished witch some day.

in the meantime you can set the house on fire and he’ll find a way to put it out, turn him into a frog and he might even forgive you some day.

in the end he’s more of a partner than a companion.

anyway, nsfw under the cut.

hello aaaaangeeeel

poor baby didn’t so much fall as he just kinda,,,,,, got lost?

like he doesn’t even remember why he came down here in the first place he gets so caught up in the world around him.

he’s so enamoured he completely forgets how to find his way back, and in the end he doesn’t really want to.

anyway you find him in the trash.

that’s right, he’s just chilling naked in a dumpster minding his own business when you come along to scream at him.

but it becomes clear pretty soon that he doesn’t understand a word you’re saying, he just looks kinda confused at your tone.

that’s when you realise he must be less fortunate than you in some way or another, and since he doesn’t seem aggressive or dangerous and you should probably help him out.

so you take him home with you and offer him a bath and some clothes, none of which he understands.

like he literally doesn’t understand the concept of clothes.

he’s very curious of his surroundings, but doesn’t know his own strength and keeps breaking everything that he picks up to examine.

he’s easily startled and doesn’t like loud noises.

you decide to let him stay the night, and then you’ll take him to the local police station tomorrow and they can find out where he belongs.

but by morning it’s becoming clear that he isn’t what you thought.

yixing (that’s what he calls himself) has emptied your entire bookshelf during the night and otherwise also turned your apartment upside down.

that morning he knows about a dozen words including “okay”, “here”, “good”, “nice” and “umbrella”.

by the end of the day he speaks in full sentences and by the end of the week he speaks almost fluently. 

it takes him a little longer to understand clothing tho.

eventually you have to give him the bath yourself and it’s a,,,,, bonding experience.

i mean you’re getting used to seeing him naked, he mostly wears a blanket around the house, but imagine yixing discovering bubbles for the first time.

and being so disappointed when they don’t taste as good as they look.

yixing is incredibly intelligent, eager to explore, and he learns very quickly, but he has no real way of explaining to you where he comes from only that he cannot return even if he wanted to and there is no use in trying.

and you keep finding feathers everywhere ????? 

they all seem to come from the same source and at the end of the week there’s enough for like two birds and you’re getting very confused.

like where are they even coming from ????

you genuinely thought yixing was an alien until you noticed how he would stroke the wings on pictures of birds he found in your books.

he tried to explain that he has a pair just like that and eventually you confront him about the feathers and he’s like “yeah, those are mine.”

but you can’t actually see the wings.

also rip if you have an instrument in the house and come home to find yixing playing it perfectly, and then he won’t stop for at least three days.

and he loves your bed, says it feels “close to home”.

eventually you buy him a dictionary and communication gets a lot easier from there on out.

in the end yixing would rather stay with you than anything else in the world, and if heaven wants him back they’re gonna have to drag him kicking and screaming over your dead body.

meanwhile you just try to keep him out of trouble.

he takes good care of you too, considers himself your guardian.

he has kinda claimed you as his own, calls you “my human”.

everything is new and every discovery is precious to him.

and you find new appreciation for life and the world around you while viewing it through his eyes.

in golden armour.

so jungkook didn’t particularly want to serve his country, but he believes in the monarchy (i.e you) and wants to amount to something, grow up to be a great, honourable man.

pursuing a military career is ideal given his low birth, his only real chance at achieving this goals.

and you already know he’s gonna rise through those ranks like no other man before him and get noticed very quickly.

and his superiors want to make him an example, and inspiration to all the young men in the land who hope to improve their station in life.

so they ask him what he wants and he says he wants to achieve the greatest honour possible, and he hopes to be a knight some day.

boom, he’s the youngest man to serve in the royal guard because what’s more honourable than protecting the monarchy?

but jungkook is unhappy in his honorary position, he feels it was handed to him.

he takes his duties seriously, but it’s far too cushy a job for someone with his ambition and energy and he gets restless a lot.

and then someone tries to abduct the heir to the throne. that’s you.

and long story short they wish they hadn’t tried because jungkook saves you single-handedly in spectacular fashion.

after this he has a renewed sense of duty and responsibility, because while he may not see a lot of action his presence is still important, and he feels a little better about things.

you also get to knight him for saving your life, and it’s a great day for the both of you.

it’s around this time jungkook is appointed as your personal guard.

which is kinda awkward because, while he’s the only one in court of a similar age to you, but you’ve barely spoken and he’s so serious always.

also he’s a farm boy, kinda rough around the edges, and doesn’t have the best manners exactly he’s kinda clumsy when it comes to etiquette, which is just very lovable tbh.

also you can tell he’s grumpy about having to follow you around all day, so you make an effort to be more active for his sake, hunting, riding, etc.

and when you can’t even kill a rabbit he realises you’ve been doing all these things for his sake and he gets really blushy and shy and it’s adorable.

and he warms up to you a lot more after that.

but you still make him sit and drink tea with you just to annoy and embarrass him a little, so he doesn’t forget who’s boss lol

you didn’t get to have much of a childhood, and jungkook’s still a boy at heart, so you play around a lot.

sneaking around the castle at night and playing hide and seek in the castle gardens.

imagine jungkook getting in trouble for letting the heir to the throne fall out of a tree.

or when you hurt your ankle and he just picks you right up and carries you inside to see the court doctor.

or helping you practice dancing for an upcoming ball and realising not only is he a brilliant dancer but he really, really loves it.

and you two sneak out to the ballrooms in the middle of the night to dance, or just dance in your chambers, or in the gardens even.

but in official capacity he’s still very serious and dedicated.

you love acting cute or pulling silly faces when no one else is looking to try and crack his facade.

and he will tickle you for it afterwards.

but honestly he adores you and would give his life to protect you.

and you love him and you know if there was ever a war he would charge in head first, which provides you extra incentive to keep the peace.

honestly, being royalty isn’t easy but you need to make it look that way.

alpha af.

i’m joking of course. jungkook isn’t just the strongest in the pack but he’s also the youngest, and he doesn’t challenge the authority of his elders.

mostly because he’s just a really, really large puppy though.

he enjoys being youngest and getting into trouble and play fighting.

you can’t expect him to be a responsible adult and a wolf ok, he can’t do both at the same time that’s just not possible.

honestly this boy has too much energy he has to go running in the woods everyday just to get rid of some of it.

prefers doing so in his wolf form, even if that means he has to find clever ways to stash clothes around, so he doesn’t have to walk home naked.

in this case you two are already dating.

it’s been a few months now and you’re pretty happy but things are progressing kinda weirdly.

i mean he’s such a soft protective shy boyfriend, he really tries to take good care of you even though he’s clueless about dating kinda.

but like he’s always going camping with his friends, who you haven’t even met yet because he’s so weird about it, and you’re never invited to come with them and honestly you’re a little hurt.

and his mysterious hikes all alone that you’re not allowed to come along on either.

he gets really intense and kinda manic once or twice around the full moon, but you never put two and two together.

you had been friends for a long time before he finally asked you out and you always felt like there was a part of himself that he hid from you and you had hoped that maybe that would change.

and you can understand his apprehension but you still need him to talk to you about that fact. communication is key.

eventually you just have to confront him about all this secrecy.

and he doesn’t know what to say, he can’t just out his whole pack so he just kinda clams up and that’s the end of that conversation.

he goes to the others for help.

namjoon tells him that this may pose a great personal risk for all of them, but jungkook the most, and if he really believes this is the right choice then they will back him because the maknae deserves to get laid too.

or something like that.

so a few days later while you’re taking a quiet stroll in the woods, feeling kinda down about things lately, you cross paths with a wolf.

it’s unexpected to say the least and you just kinda freeze, panicked.

but he looks kinda......tame?

he just sits down on the path and looks at you with wide puppy eyes (just like jungkook sometimes does), not growling or anything, just tilting his head and wiggling his nose (like jungkook sometimes does)

and you take this opportunity to back away slowly, but the wolf follows you kinda hesitantly, whining a little.

until there’s a large enough tree on the side for him to sneak behind and change and you’re like ??? as the wolf goes behind the tree and

jungkook peaks out on the other side ?????

naked ? ?? ?? ?? ???? ?? ?? ? ?  ?? ????? ??? 

and you probably faint tbh

but after that (and watching him change like ten times until you can deal with the reality of your situation) things make sense and you can continue your relationship without jungkook hiding who he is.

and you get to go on all the hikes, and walks in the woods, and camping even, and stroke his very very very soft fur, and scratch his soft ears.

just bliss.

anyway, nsfw under the cut.

good luck cleaning up all that sunshine dust.

hoseok is Old Money and has never worked a day in his life.

instead he’s very invested in charities and in the arts and never gets tired of attending balls and events of all sorts.

he also hosts a score of his own, so he has a large staff to help him around the house.

did i say house? i meant mANSIONS. plural.

the most social of all the socialites.

it’s no secret that jung hoseok lights up a room and his social affairs are always free of drama and scandal because he’s everyone’s unproblematic fave.

such a lovely employer too, he treats everyone fairly and often stops to have a short chat with his domestic helpers, i.e you.

everyone always wishing him a good morning/afternoon/evening/night when they pass him, because he’s very polite and often does the same.

and he remembers everyone’s birthdays and gives them all a decent bonus for the holidays he’s such a saint.

but he also makes The Absolute Worst puns all the fucking time and you’re all obligated to laugh with him rip

“you didn’t sweep that room with just a glance, did you?”

“haha no, sir.”

“another one fights the dust, i see.”

“haha yes, sir.”

“don’t make mária do the hoovering, she’s slovak.”

“haha okay, sir”

and if these genuinely crack you up then congratulations you’re already his favourite.

if not then you’re kinda really very cute anyway so he doesn’t mind.

and maybe one day he has an event to attend and you arrive late with his newly pressed tuxedo and he’s like ????? where were you

“sorry i’m late, sir. i over-swept.”

and hoseok fucking loses his shit.

good job you cleaned the floor earlier that day because he is fucking rolling on it.

now you’re definitely his favourite.

then he gives you a very straight face and asks “can you tie a bowtie?”

and you’re like “no ??????” because of course not how even

and he’s like “great! i’ll teach you!”

because he can do it just fine, he knows the technique, but he always messes it up on himself and it ends up looking sad and floppy.

so you spend about twenty minutes tying hoseok’s bowtie and cracking jokes until you master it, so that you can help him out in the future.

and because he really really really likes making you smile.

from then on he lets you practice regularly and you get very good at it and he’s like “ah, the student has defeated the master”

so you go “thank you, master.”

and oH BOY GOES RED AF

i mean it shouldn’t be a big deal you call him “sir” all day long but

young boys are addressed as “master” by the staff and he gets nostalgic and yet it’s oddly erotic and he’s so flustered help the poor man ????

nah you’re probably flustered too.

rip the both of you.

things are awkward after that.

he doesn’t want to make things awkward because he’s your employer and he doesn’t want to like accidentally harass you or anything.

but you know how he’s like really invested in the arts ???

and he attends every ballet production in the country at least three times.

and donates so much money to theatres and operas and dance institutes especially, so they make him a guest of honour at every opening.

and he was supposed to attend the season opening at the ballet with someone (there was no one lol) but they cancelled and now he has a plus one but no one to take with him.

and he knows you have a birthday coming up (in two months lol) and he’ll pay for the attire if you don’t have anything to wear but he would be honoured of possibly maybe you would want to be his date ???????

and of course you acCEPT ARE YOU MAD THIS IS THE BEST DAY OF YOUR LIFE

and rip jung hoseok ??? because  you look amazing in evening wear and will you ever let the poor boy live???? how is he supposed to take his eyes off you long enough to catch the performance omg ????

and on the way there in the limo you tie his bowtie and he tells you all about the production you’re seeing and the choreographer which he knows personally and the primary dancer park jimin who he also knows personally and

and honestly he’s so passionate and over the moon with joy and it’s a delight to listen to him talk about the thing he loves so much you fall in love with him like ten times on that one limo ride bless.

and after the show you’re like wow best date ever ????

and you admit to him it’s gonna be weird going back to work for him after all of this because he’s treated you like royalty and tomorrow you’re going back to folding his socks.

and he’s like “i mean, not,,,,,,,, necessarily?”

“what do you mean?”

“you could just,,,,,,, marry me?”

and hAHA of coURSE he’s jOKING hahhhha a hah ah

but seriously no pressure or anything but he really likes you and would like to keep seeing you,,,,,,, in evening wear.

and if you want to keep working for him that’s cool too, but if you don’t then you don’t have to and if you wanna quit and sue him that’s fine he’ll settle out of court and give you a large severance package and he’ll write you the best references and

and you just gotta kiss him to shut him up.

and then you make out in the back of the limo.

imagine hoseok taking you to all the fancy events and showing you off.

showering you with gifts and pampering you, it’s A Lot ok.

and he’s the loveliest person on earth but he will punch anyone who dares suggest he’s “slumming it” with you no fucking way m8

and be warned if you’re attending a ball he’s gonna make you dance all fucking night but it’s okay because he’s a terrific dancer lucky u.

and if you want to travel he’ll take you anywhere you wanna go from lavish tropical resorts to the most remote mountain villages.

he just loves making you happy :’)

anyway, nsfw under the cut.

what’s there to say? we already know he’s a great leader.

heir to the country’s largest publishing/printing firm.

also the greenest publishing/printing company in the country, like top five in the world, all thanks to namjoon’s initiatives.

he takes the whole inheriting business thing very seriously, determined to deserve the company and to be the best boss ever.

graduates early from a prestiged business school abroad and shares the responsibilities at the company to give his ageing father a break.

he’s so !!!! invested !!! in the health and happiness of his employees !!!!

wins All The Awards, for his green initiatives, planting trees, and making jobs, and protecting the environment ect, but also for having the happiest employees in the country.

he’s always arranging conferences and seminars for his employees to educate and encourage health/happiness/safety/equal opportunity/respect/ect in the workplace.

he works so hard to make sure everyone even down to the lowest branches are insured and that there are daycares and mom’s get the paid leave they need and deserve and that everyone gets and equal and fair wage.

bless him.

unfortunately all this work on top of his official workload means he doesn’t have much time to look after himself.

but in his mind he’s suffering is worth the safety and health of so many others he doesn’t even mind tho he’s kinda sad.

so, you work in the HR department.

and the head of the department fucks off on maternity leave and by some miracle ???? you get a hasty promotion.

no, you’re not really the head of HR but your function is pretty much the same and you don’t mind because the pay is goOD.

part of your responsibilities as head is to keep namjoon briefed on the general mood and concern of the people in his branch, i.e the large building full of people he feels directly responsible for.

he even has a whole suggestion box system, so once a week you just have to go through the notes people leave you and present a list to namjoon with a few possible solutions etc.

piece of cake.

except he’s hot as all hell.

i mean, it’s not a problem, far from it, he’s just very distracting.

but your meetings with him are the highlight of your work week so you do a really good job or at least you try, and also wear something nice.

and you think he’s just kinda clumsy and awkward.

but actually he finds you really distracting as well.

and your meetings are A Mess for the first month or so, until you get into the swing of things and get your shit together.

and the complaints he gets are never a big deal because everyone is happy and has nothing to complain about like ???

his secretary complaining that him playing smooth jazz all day in his office is getting kinda annoying and please would he play some classical or maybe bossa nova for a change.

or that his wacky ties and other questionable fashion choices are giving them a headache.

or jeon jungkook complaining about someone’s coffee breath again.

an anonymous submission says jimin is apparently??? too??? cute???

jung hoseok won’t stop moonwalking to the photocopier while humming thriller and it’s not even october and michael jackson doesn’t even moonwalk to thriller ugh ???????

yoongi keeps falling asleep at his desk and forgetting to go home at the end of the day.

harmless stuff like that. 

(namjoon stays late so he starts driving yoongi home because that’s just the kind of Great boss he is.)

and most of the time you two spend these meeting gossiping about drama between the departments and rolling on the floor laughing.

and you’re so in awe that someone can be so wonderful and selfless, making use of his privilege to protect people less fortune than him.

and your meeting are usually after lunch, so you come back from lunch to find him buried in paperwork and you begin to wonder, who takes care of him?

you ask if he had lunch and he’s like lol of course not have you met me

and you suggest postponing the meeting because there’s nothing urgent going on and you can take care of “kim taehyung keeps sneaking his dog into the office” on your own.

but he’s like “nO!!! please, our meetings are the only break i get, they keep me sane, they’re kinda the highlight of my week.”

and you sputter like ????? “im,,,what??? me ?? too?”

from that day on he starts taking you out for lunch every week and that way your meetings get twice as long.

and eventually you have to ask him, since nothing is going on in the office, “what about you, namjoon? how are you doing?”

and he thinks for a moment and he’s like “you know what, i feel kinda shitty actually.”

so you let him vent all his sadness and weird existential thoughts and angst for a few weeks and eventually suggest maybe he takes responsibility for his own health and happiness and maybe a good step would be to see a therapist?

and he does because he values your opinion and honestly it’s the only selfish thing he’s done in years and it makes him feel 1000001x better to have his concerns and ideas affirmed and listened to by a professional. therapy is cool, kids.

and one day shy joonie hands you a little poem he wrote you on a post-it, describing all the little detail he’s observed about him that makes his heart race and his head go all slow and foggy.

because he really,,,,,,,,,,,,, really likes you, and hopes this isn’t weird or anything if you don’t feel the same way that’s cool but he’s felt this way for a while and you’re the best thing that’s happened to him since this company and he just thought you deserved to know and he’s sorry.

and you have to like glue yourself to that dining chair so you don’t climb that dang table and throw yourself at him because namjoon is the most wonderful man on earth you treasure him and you want to keep him safe and happy because he deserves as much kindness as he’s prepared to give and he has nothing to be sorry for and you love him.

and he loves you too.

anyway, nsfw under the cut.

— the request was for “Suga and Jhope“ so i combined the two because lbr hobi wouldn’t last long without yoongi.

safety in numbers, right ????

because you can’t survive on hope alone!

i won’t fill in the whole story this time but suffice it to say you’d been up a tree for two days, and started calling for help.

yoongi wants to ignore you and keep going.

he has a very “every man for themselves” kinda mindset (ironic since he will fight to the death for hobi) but hoseok is an idealist and wants to believe in the good in the world.

so he convinces yoongi and finally they come to your rescue.

that’s the thing about yoonseok, they’re very different so they balance each other out perfectly, and they wouldn’t have survived so long without each other.

but that doesn’t mean you disturb that balance. 

the three of you make a good team, killin’ zombies, lootin’ homes.

although hoseok is kinda incapable of killing, he can barely even look at the undead close up and he’s only ever killed to save yoongi.

his Safe Place is between the two of you, and that’s where he sleeps, holding both your hands so he knows you’re there.

yoongi eats last. he will always make sure you two are fed before he feeds himself, insisting that he “needs less food” or “watching you eat is enough”.

but he can’t argue that he has to keep his strength up if he’s gonna keep you two safe, nor can he refuse when you hold the food to his lips.

so you end up feeding him a lot.

also yoongi carries a pillow everywhere and he reluctant shares it with the two of you.

“hey, loot your own pillow.”

hoseok makes quick friends with everyone you meet, but yoongi is equally distrustful and makes sure nobody sticks around too long.

also you just knOW yoongi is the sensible one, like he packed all the necessities and the medicine and first aid kits and thick socks and always checks medicine cabinets and sorts all the food in order of expiration date.

and hoseok wants to be helpful too but he’s so busy jumping at every sound and freaking the fuck out.

but it’s a good thing having someone like that because min yoongi Wakes For No Man, dead, undead, or alive, no way.

so hoseok keeps watch and provides moral support.

but it’s 12/10 A++ moral support, nobody can revive your hope in the fate of humanity like jung hoseok.

also provides much needed vitamin d.

because yoongi may look like he’s never smiled once in his entire life, but hobi looks like he has done nothing but.

and helping min yoongi stay positive is hard okay, and nobody does it like hoseok. except maybe you.

they quickly become very fond of you, because, unlike most other survivors so far, you weren’t doing so well of your own and they both immediately feel responsible for keeping you safe and warm and happy.

like i said it’s a good dynamic and you all watch out for one another.

cuddling up to yoongi when he feels sad and afraid he’ll fail you two.

stroking hoseok’s hair when he has nightmares.

cheering you up with silly faces and bad duet’s when you’re down.

they even remembered your birthday and saved a bag of your favourite flavour crisps for you, #blessed

eventually you camp out on a rooftop, the kind that has a lil shed on it, and make a home for yourselves there.

there’s a few pieces of furniture out on the roof, and you gather blankets and cushions and eventually even a mattress.

it’s safe and cosy and you only ever go out together, so nobody gets lost or hurt and honestly it’s such a great solution.

just when you thought he couldn’t get any grumpier, min yoongi is cursed to walk the earth for all eternity.

yikes.

so done with the world’s shit by now, honestly he stopped caring a long, long, looooong time ago and if anyone expects him to give a flying fuck about a hashtag or the panda’s dying they can think again.

political scandal? “is that a new band?”

global warming? “good, it’s kinda drafty here.”

the sun will one day grow to encompass the earth? “great, i’ll be waiting.”

whenever he gets bored or impatient with everything he’ll just go to ground and hibernate. 

by which i mean he will literally dig himself a hole and go to sleep in the earth for anything from a week to a century (ok that was one time.)

and he’s cold all. the. time. like, yeah i know he’s technically dead but he actually feels the cold all the time, because he lowkey starves himself.

so he’s always very bundled up, and doesn’t really notice the temperature shift from inside/outside or winter/summer.

and yoongi is old, okay, he doesn’t need much blood to keep him going. 

he’s got a short list of donors he can have a few sips from during the week, and that way nobody has to die because of him.

because ugh slaughter is such a pain to clean up.

so, not only is he technically dead, but he looks kinda malnourished, a little sick, and like he hasn’t slept. ever. 

and yet he’s very pretty, flawless, stoic, and distractingly magnetic.

because he’s so old however, he’s not weak, just lethargic af.

there’s just one thing he cares about. wanna take a wild guess?

music.

the only reason he hasn’t sunk to the bottom of the ocean, flung himself into a volcano, or walked into the sunset by now.

and when you don’t need to eat, sleep, or pee, you get through a lot of music so yoongi has pretty much heard it all.

these days he just kinda hibernates and wanders around while he’s waiting for new releases.

and you work in a record shop. wow isn’t that a nice coinkydink.

his usual place shuts down and he has to find a new shop that’ll let him sit around and listen to music in the evenings. 

and your place of work is exactly one such place.

he comes in late, depending on the season, just when the sun has gone down, during the last few hours of your work day.  

he doesn’t say anything, just sits and listens until you have to lock up.

and you just assume he works all day and this is the only time he has to go browse, although you notice eventually that he rarely buys anything, but you decide to leave him alone because he looks like he’s had one hell of a day.

anyway it’s nice not to be alone in the shop at the end of the day when it gets dark and all.

you tried to offer him coffee once, because you got some for yourself and he always looks like he just got in from a snowstorm. but he just shook his head no.

and at first he would stop by the shop once a month or every two weeks.

but one night, when you play something over the speakers that he hasn’t heard in decades, he suddenly feels???? nostalgic ????

and with wide eyes he asks you the name of the artist and you trip all over yourself and your words trying to tell him because you don’t think you’ve ever heard him speak and wow is that what his voice sounds like

and after that he starts coming every night to rediscover all the old stuff he hasn’t listened to in ages, because somehow in all his grump he had completely forgotten he could do that???? 

and he’s lowkey very grateful that he rediscovered his love of music through you, so whenever you try to make polite conversation with him after that he doesn’t just grunt or shake his head, he gives you actual answers, and you start learning more about him.

you let him stay after closing time, just a little while until you have to go, making small talk whenever he’s not absorbed in the music.

that way you learn so, sO much about music, everything from little technical details to great historical context, and you don’t understand how one man can have such a large range of knowledge.

and then you start playing whichever album he chooses over the speakers so that you can both listen and talk about the music together.

and stay around longer so he can finish whichever album he’s listening to that evening.

and he begins to walk you home because that way you can continue your conversations, and also it’s late and dark and he knows exactly what kind of monsters lurk in these shadows.

and by that time you’re already head over heels for him, but he’s very careful about keeping his distance, so you just assume he’s not attracted to you and that’s fine as long as he keeps keeping you company.

yoongi has probably mentioned he’s a vampire.

like at least twice he’s proclaimed to be dead and you just assumed you didn’t get the joke.

but the real joke is he’s dead, he doesn’t care who knows, and it’s not like anyone will believe him anyway.

“you’re too thin, when was the last time you ate something, yoongi?”

“a couple centuries probably, what year is it again?”

and

“you’re so pale, yoongi, you should get more sun.”

“i’m already dead, a little sun isn’t gonna help.”

or

“you look tired, yoongi, do you get enough sleep?”

“i took a ten year nap before this, don’t worry.”

or

“hey, yoongi, how are you today?”

“dead. could be worse, i guess.”

lmao rip.

and then, you go and get a dang paper cut.

before you can so much as bring it to your lips yoongi is already at your side, pressing a tissue (where did that even come from?) to the cut so firmly it cuts off circulation to the entire finger anyway.

and he’s so,,,,, close. 

you’ve never seen him so close, and all you can do is stare at him like an idiot and wonder how many people have specks of red in their eyes, because you’ve never seen that on anyone before.

and he doesn’t even breathe. he can’t.

and that’s when you realise “yoongi, you’re so cold!”

“i’m dead. i told you, i’m a vampire.”

and you’re like hha,,, hah,,,ha? w-what? 

so he takes your other hand, and holds it to the side of his neck and he’s completely cold and there’s no pulse.

and now the cat is out of the bag so he may as well lean in and sniff you because life’s too short amirite.

“you smell........... incredible.”

that’s when you see his lil fangs.

and at first you’re freaking out because hol ?? ?y STHIT???

but then you realise, this is yoongi, who’s walked you home for months now, he’s had every opportunity to drain you dry and he hasn’t and you’re desperately in love with him.

so you just kinda,,,,, chill.

and yoongi looks surprised, expecting you to kick and scream, and asks why your heart rate suddenly slowed again and you tell him it’s because you trust him.

so, he asks “but what if i bit you?”

and you say “you wouldn’t.”

“then,,,,,,,, what if i kissed you?”

your heart damn near beats right out of your chest.

and in response he gives you the smuggest grin, fangs and all.

anyway, nsfw under the cut.

you have the most handsome boss in all of creation, good luck.

first things first, kim seokjin is heir to one of the great business empires on his side of the planet.

for the moment though he’s just managing a few of the smaller branches as well as all the charities and his passion project, a moderately successful chain of restaurants.

you find work in one of these aforementioned branches, filling in as his secretary when his PA needs time off to care for their sick mother.

and he’s so stressed and busy he doesn’t even notice until around lunchtime when he bursts out of his office in a frenzy.

“assistant choi! you’re not assistant choi. where’s assistant choi?”

you remind him and he’s like “oops, i thought that was next week.”

because he can manage twelve charities and two businesses at once, he can clothe and feed himself because he’s a big boy, but he can’t organise anything. that’s what he needs you for.

also he can’t tie a tie properly.

he probably went to harvard business school, but he can’t tie a tie for shit. it’s always askew or crumpled or something, so you look knots up online because you’re just itching to fix it for him.

but you don’t actually approach him with the offer for a while, that would be inappropriate. instead you wait for him to tie it himself and ultimately fail, before you offer your help.

he accepts gratefully, and watches you concentrate in the agitating piece of cloth as if an angel just descended to save him from drowning.

later he admits that was when he knew he would fall in love with you.

and after that, whenever he has an important meeting to attend, you gotta fix his tie for him. it’s like ur lil ritual, and it helps him calm down and prepare.

sometimes he neglects to eat though. 

like when he’s trying to stay on top of events and important paperwork and running back and forth between meetings and you start to wonder if you should be organising meals for him as well.

he works so hard you end up feeling like you can’t just leave him alone in his office even if the work day is technically over, so you sit around answering emails as you wait for him to dismiss you.

eventually you just Go For It and order a bunch of food in, not knowing what he likes, because you’re hungry too dangit.

so at like 7pm you knock softly and ask him is it okay if you bring him something to eat.

kim seokjin could cry at that moment, but also he’s like “wait, you’re still here? why are you still here?”

you recite him his dinner options and by the end he’s almost visibly drooling.

“that sound amazing, do i have to choose?”

“well, one of them was for me.”

“which one?”

“whichever you didn’t want.”

“can’t we just share all of it?”

and so you and your new boss end up sitting across from one another on his plush expensive carpet, and have a virtual take-out feast.

and you’re both exhausted so you know he’s killing it with the dad jokes and his windshield wiping laughter just makes everything ten times funnier. lbr you probably peed yourself a little.

it’s late when you finally leave, so he drives you home.

the drive is nice and quiet and before you know it you’ve fallen asleep.

also you don’t know this but he was parked outside your house for like ten minutes before he mustered up the courage to wake you, like “ok we’re here!!!! hahahaha,,ha,,,ha,,,,, ah”

weeks pass, and jin’s dad is constantly piling more responsibility on him, which means more branches, which means jin has to travel more, and he takes you with him because he’s useless without you.

and you two are just so comfortable around each other from the start ??

but more importantly you really enjoy one another’s company and are constantly drawn together.

so eventually, always eating room service together turns into always spending time in the same room, which turns into eventually only booking one room with separate beds.

because more money saved is more money to charity. 

right? 

right ????

and guess what. 

eventually the hotel fucks up, but everything is so hectic you don’t even notice until it’s too late and you come back from a conference at night to find you only have one bed.

whoopsie daisy~

honestly though you’re both so exhausted because you flew in early that morning, jin falls asleep with all his clothes on and you don’t even care and pass out beside him like two minutes later.

when you wake however, he has shrugged out of his blazer and you’re snuggled up to him, head tucked beneath his chin, cheek pressed against his chest. 

to save you the embarrassment he pretends he’s still asleep while you untangle yourself. but breakfast is still awkward as heck to say the least, and he lowkey won’t stop smiling to himself the entire time.

and every time you attend a charity event with him everyone assumes you’re dating because you’re always laughing together and they’re used to seeing him with assistant choi. 

and one time he mishears someone asking if you’re his date and he says yes so you run with it and link your arm through his and call him pet names and he goes sO red and stutters and it’s worth all the death glares he sends you the rest of the night.

after that he’s kinda tense and weird and you end up apologising for your behaviour because that was very unprofessional of you and you crossed a line and you really need this job please don’t fire me.

and as you arrive back at the hotel he’s like “yeah, it’s cool, whatever, i need a drink.”

and you’re like “idk about you but there’s a minibar in my room.”

and he just stares at you until you realise what you’ve said and when you die of embarrassment he’s like “now we’re even. goodnight.”

eventually, one fateful evening back at the office, jin completely buckles under the weight of it all and you find him with his head in his hands, papers all over the floor.

he confesses to you how it’s all too much and he doesn’t know how he’s supposed to keep everything together, especially as his responsibilities keep growing and without assistant choi around to help him out.

you spin his chair around to face you and sink down to his level, take his face in your hands and tell him firmly that he’s got this. it’s okay to doubt yourself and to crack under the pressure, but he’s got you and he’s got this and together you’re gonna kick this thing in the ass.

and he laughs and hold your hand, leans in a fraction but hesitates until you tell him he can also kiss you if he wants. 

and he does. 

he kisses you over and over and over until you have expensive carpet burns, wink wonk if you know what i mean.

anyway, nsfw under the cut.
