he kind of wonders if he should have maybe gone as a vampire, per his name, just for the sake of the joke. but instead, he’d chosen to go as a werewolf, figuring that his hair colour suited it a bit better. pink simply isn’t what he thinks one would expect from a vampire. they’re supposed to be dark or cold, and then there’s him with his peachy pink hair… 

well, anyways, it doesn’t matter. because neither @msujaewon or @msujaehyun had agreed to dress up with him! 

rude. they’re literally the twilight trio, junseong is very much of the opinion that they should have come together to really make the joke stick in everyone else’s minds. but instead, none of them are really matching their “characters,” so to speak. 

     no.

     “aren’t you supposed to like, i dunno, glitter in the sunlight or something?” 

     okay, maybe it does matter a little bit. the world was probably better off without kim jaewon understanding twilight references, but it’s too late now. he’s been forced to watch all four movies and now he has endless references at his fingertips. 

unfolded parchment #16: “no forts without me!” with @msujaewon​

When Yoojin got to his room after the longest potions class he ever endured, all he wanted was to eat and find comfort under his warm blanket. The weather had changed considerably and the chilling winds tossed his hair everywhere and made him lock the door and the window as soon as he closed the first one behind him.

Jaewon wasn’t around, or at least he didn’t notice any noise coming from his roommate’s bedroom so he just decided to take a warm shower and proceed with his plans for the night.

As he was finally able to relax, Yoojin gave it some thought as how blessed he was finally feeling at MSU, with no more people nagging him about his parents. It still gets on his nerves, from time to time when he would see people from his past, and even if they didn’t do anything against him anymore, it made him anxious; however, not to the point to drive him to that dark place, where he wanted nothing more than hurt people.

It took him half an hour to finally find his spot on the couch, taking with him a large bowl of popcorn and the heaviest duvet on the house for Yoojin to feel a hundred percent at ease. And it was exactly when he just logged on his Netflix account and set the first episode of Bly Manor that he heard the front door opening and a silhouette of a male came to view.

“No forts without me!”

Yoojin hid his smile under the covers; Jaewon was home.

     he’s glad that his roommate is cool. he had had his fair share of terrible roommates before—at hogwarts it was terrible because they were all stuck together for all fuckin’ seven years though he managed to make some groovy friends too. they don’t talk as much nowadays, since timezones are apparently a thing but he’s been lucky enough to still be able to catch up with them whenever he wants to. 

     it doesn’t matter though, because he does genuinely like yoojin as a friend and as a roommate. he likes to think they work well together, because even though he likes to go out and is more of a loud personality than  soft one, they seem to somewhat balance each other out a bit. or, of what he knows of the other he likes to think that they balance each other out. 

     something like that. 

     he’s out late usually though, now with quidditch practice in play and that he’s dating, and then he also checks up on his sister every once and a while ... and his idiot friends .... and pranks. you know. all that stuff. 

     but when he comes back, usually that’s the time that he crosses paths with yoojin. and usually, this works out because they usually will just chill and watch a movie or a show until either 1) one of them needs to study or 2) they get sleepy and go to bed. 

her days off are probably better spent sleeping, all things considered, but hwang bitna is nothing if not godless, lawless, and thoughtless (in that order, too!). it’d be a waste of a perfectly good day to take a nap, in her not-so-humble opinion, and truth be told, she’s been feeling a little restless, a lot antsy, and she’s not interested in trying to unpack it to ascertain why.

(again—godless, lawless, and thoughtless.)

there’s a deep frown on her lips as she stares at her phone screen, attention drifting from the unfortunate victim she’s dragged along with her to her journey to the pet store. 

can she really deal with a pet right now? she knows she wants one, but she wants a lot of things—a ton of royalties, a best-selling book, eight hours of sleep, maybe world piece (she’s still considering it)—and that doesn’t necessarily mean she should have them.

but a pet. couldn’t she manage a pet? sure, she’s horrendous at taking care of herself, but that’s because she isn’t a cute little creature that demands to be taken care of—

“jaaaaaaaaeeeeeeewwwwwoooooon,” bitna suddenly drawls out, dropping her arms to her side with a helpless sigh. she can’t get cold feet now. she left her room with a purpose, and she won’t let this day end in defeat. “is gureum a cheesy name for a pet? doesn’t it sound overdone?” she asks, tilting her head in jaewon’s direction. she shakes it shortly after, pocketing her phone and pressing the dip between her index finger and her thumb to her chin in contemplation. “or yeppi. or maybe i should give my pet a very formal name, to make sure it understands i am taking it seriously. ‘william’ or ‘jacob’—oh wait, that’s you.” 

so distracted by her train of thought, bitna hardly even realizes they’ve finally made it into the pet shop until the various animal noises (a cacophony, really) snap her out of her trance. 

she blinks, parting her lips to ask a follow-up question when she is made painfully aware of the reason why she begged someone (jaewon, today) to come with her in the first place. a cat jumps from a shelf to the counter and she lets out a sharp gasp, immediately stumbling to hide behind her friend.

     all he really remembers is leaving the dorm to go grab a smoothie or something, maybe text amelie to hang out or something and then ... then he was ambushed by bitna and now they’re on their way to the pet store. genuinely, he does not know how he got from point A to point B. there’s no memory in his mind, all he knows is that he was forced. 

     though, it hadn’t taken too much convincing for him to come along to the pet store. he loves animals, and honestly? maybe he’s at the point in his life where he thinks it’s time for him to be a cat dad. or maybe a dog dad? a frog dad? a frog dog? wait what—

     never mind.

     either way, they’re reaching the shop when suddenly his name is being called, and jaewon literally turns to look at his friend, his eyes wide in confusion. “what?” he answers, confused as to what she’s talking about before it becomes clear that they’re talking about a pet. he seriously takes her words into consideration for a long moment before he shrugs. 

     “i mean, i think gureum is a cute name. depending on what animal you’re naming that? like, i don’t think you could name like ... a snake. that. or a frog. or like, a spider or something. but like a white cat? or dog? very fitting,” he comments, mirroring her actions and also bringing his fingers up to press into his chin, feeling amused. he does make a face when she brings his english name into it—genuinely he’s not sure how everyone knows but he also doesn’t particularly care ... unless it’s being brought up by hayden. but that’s a different story. 

     he steps into the pet shop, glancing around curiously. maybe he really should get a pet. that would be fun. hyewon would probably like it if he got like ... a cat or something. he thinks he wouldn’t mind getting a cat. cats were nice. they purred and liked to lay in the sunlight. and were cute. maybe he could convince bitna to get a cat with him. to commemorate their trip to the pet store. this was a great idea. maybe him and bitna could get matching pets— 

     the thought is jolted out of his brain when he hears her gasp, glancing around in confusion to see what might’ve surprised her before there’s a grin on his face, seeing her slide to hide behind him. 

@msujaewon 

university is expensive. he’d always known that, and adding on the extra cost of moving across the globe to an entirely new country had been why he’d written off his dream of coming here for the majority of the four years since his father left. textbooks and robes had set him back a reasonable amount, but he’d never anticipated costs for clubs, too. realistically, he doesn’t need to improve his figure drawing to be allowed to stay in the art club; it’s not like they’re going to kick him out because he still struggles with angular noses or certain hand poses, but it’s hard not to feel like an outsider when he can’t keep up with everything everyone else does. 

that being said, no one said he couldn’t cut a few corners or make a few deals to get by. back on the farm, though they didn’t necessarily need to, they would reuse fabrics for clothes, bedsheets and the like. he’d be tutored by his family in the absence of his previous magical education. so, what’s to say he can’t get someone to model for a deal that doesn’t involve money? he bakes a mean tiger bread if that’s of any interest, and he’s pretty good at most of his subjects — good enough to help with homework and study notes, at least. he’s surprised when he doesn’t even have to break out how good he is at lugging around heavy objects without complaining before jaewon is agreeing. 

     so when he’s approached by someone he knows, in a question of hey will you let me practice drawing you or something like that, well, who is he to say no? personally, he thinks he’s pretty attractive and while he’s not sure he really has the features to be a model—he has the height, and the body type probably, he’s not sure about the face but he thinks he’s pretty hot—he will never say no to a friend in need. or an acquaintance in need?

     something like that.
