“aren’t you an idol? don’t you do this for a living?” he asked with a laugh. honestly, with them being so flippant about it, and it being their job…. it kind of made him chill out a bit. “what have  you done in the past when your group is on a show and someone fucks up?”

“i mean, technically. i’m more an idol musician, really, and i’d say my company is the one that gives the least shit about promoting it’s groups properly, so the amount of times i show up on shows like this is pretty low, all things considered.” they paused, shrugging. “you riff on it. turn it into a bit. and then move on. it’s not a big deal until you make it a big deal.”

“Disappointing… here I was thinking it was comedic genius. So like, you definitely fooled me,” Eli snorted. “That’s what I was thinking–I guess every season’s gotta have one, so it might as well be me, right?”

“i’ve thought about a lot of things that might come in handy for us someday,” she answered smoothly, rolling her eyes. “please– if they do anything not-vanilla, 9 times out of ten if there’s a het male dom, it’s borderline abusive and not consensual. i could write a dissertation about that shit.” bia hummed, smile playing at her lips. “very cute how we both know that me being the dom is just implied…”

“what kind of porn hub are you watching in your free time,” jaekyung snorted, taken a little aback. “you should. i mean, maybe once your group is a little more established but... if someone with a platform talks about it, it’ll bring more awareness,” jae pointed out. “please, i know my place. i’m happy to be along for the ride.”

“Hey, you could’ve been hiding it for all I know,” Eli teased. “You don’t have to, I think I can figure it out. If not, I can just keep smiling and maybe they won’t notice it too much.”

“hardly. makeup sex is only good because of the emotions and passion involved, and we have plenty of that. and angry sex, people only end up liking because their partners get rough. which, first of all, we can do anyway if you’re into that. but second of all, a lot of that isn’t consensual….it’s just angry so people take their anger out on each other. and we’re better than that.”

“they way that you’ve put so much thought into this already is kinda hot,” jakey laughed, grinning at their girlfriend cheekily. “you’re right, though. hets do be missing a lot of passion. their fucking oatmeal bland ass vanilla sex probably would get boring after a while..... you have points. and, uh... as for the other part...” they paused. “you know i’m always down to stop playing nice every once in a while.”

“ooh, maybe xinyi and her fancy social media contacts have an in.”

“she’s probably got more than liberty on the whole. i swear, my company is so fucking useless,” jaeky snorted

“well, i wouldn’t want a boycott on my hands, would i…”

“especially from me. i’m super influential, didn’t you know?”

“God, you just had to put that mental image in my head, didn’t you?” Duri laughed.
