Being a music artist was already a lot of work especially when you were a workaholic who rarely trusted your own management to help—but being an artist that was associated with the biggest K-pop stars of your generation? That was just insane. You hadn’t meant to be linked with HUNTR/X suddenly. Honestly, you hadn’t even known much about them beyond what the general public knew.

They were a three-girl K-pop group with gorgeous hair and were incredibly famous. That was quite literally the extent of your knowledge. The only reason you had started to know about them was that out of nowhere the visual, whatever her name was, had posted a Weverse clip of her doing a dance challenge to your latest single.

All of a sudden your moderate-at-best fan base was exploding. Their fans seemed obsessed with everything these girls so much as referenced. It was baffling to you how just one dancing clip could all but skyrocket your success. But you were curious about the three of them so you started to do more research.

You found out that the leader and the vocalist were Rumi and she had really pretty purple hair. And then the rapper was Zoey and she was really sweet. Finally, the dancer who had started all of it was Mira with the pink hair. But arguably the most important thing you determined was that the girls were very very sweet. And to your regressed brain, very Mama. 

You started watching their old live streams and pretty much all the content they had. Once you started listening to their music it was all over for you. Everything from Rumi's high notes to Mira's rasp to Zoey's bars felt soothing to you. You started playing their songs to go to sleep while your mind went crazy with the idea of lullabies.

You tried to shut down the sort of adoration you felt for them that was only worse when you were small. But it didn’t help that none of them seemed to be done talking about you either. You had seen 3 separate dance challenges by Mira to your songs. Zoey had mentioned you multiple times in interviews. Even Rumi talked about you.

Your brain had latched onto them being Mamas and it did not seem to be letting up. But it wasn’t until you woke up to a call from your manager that you thought anything could come from it. All Anna had said was that you needed to get to the studio immediately. So you got dressed in simple leggings and a black sweater your friend had knit you. Then you were grabbing your keys and rushing out of the house. 

You parked your car outside the studio and spotted an absurd amount of paparazzi surrounding the main entrance. One of the bigger artists under your label must need this location for something or another. So you slipped around back and made your way to your area. But you spotted Anna standing outside the meeting room with a look of barely restrained excitement.

Sometimes it was hard to forget she was a decade older than you with the way she always managed to have high energy. But the woman was shifting her face into a warm, motherly smile. She was the only one on your team who knew about your regression. Anna wrapped her arm around you, giving you a quick squeeze before speaking. “Listen this is a huge opportunity and as long as you don’t lose it in there there's no way you’ll blow it.” She talked at almost 2x speed and didn’t give you a moment to comprehend.

Then you were being lightly pushed into the room you vaguely recognized as the meeting room. You had only had to be in there once or twice and you were far from familiar with it. You glanced around not spotting anything out of the ordinary besides the lack of people. You heard vague voices coming from the door opposite you and glanced up. Maybe there was something new in your contract?

You hesitantly sank into your seat around the long black table before the door sprang open. You stared when 3 of the most gorgeous girls you had ever seen walked into the room. HUNTR/X was still chatting when they strode in but the instant they spotted you they shut up. Zoey, the maknae squealed “Oh my gosh! We thought you weren't going to be here for a few more minutes at least.” She was reaching out but stopping just before she touched you as if she was waiting for permission.

Your eyes widen a little but you nod slowly and stand up as she rounds the table still disbelieving at the fact that the biggest idols in the world were in your studio and one of them was hugging you. She pulls away with a bright smile while Mira and Rumi watch her with fond expressions. Both of the other girls hold their hands out for a handshake and their grips are much stronger than your shaky one. Zoey says something in Korean that makes the other two grin. You blink but sit back down across from them.

The three of them settle down as well and Rumi is the first to speak. Your eyes fixate on her almost translucent…patterns(?) that flow across her arms and neck. They're gorgeous. You're fairly certain someone had said they were some skin disease. She has a firm yet gentle voice and you struggle not to melt right then and there. “So y/n I’m sure you noticed the increased interest we’ve taken in you and your music. We would love to offer a collaboration with you.” You have to wrench your brain away from the fact that Miras arm is wrapped around Rumis chair and you’re fairly certain the three girls are playing footsie under the table. “Uh you know I’m not exactly anywhere near K-pop right?” You point out with a slightly lopsided grin trying to ignore the small ‘aw’ that slipped out of Miras mouth.

The three of them exchange a knowing glance and Zoey giggles. “Of course, that’s part of the fun. I already have 12 notebooks full of brainstorms.” She said with a proud grin and your eyebrow raised despite yourself. “Shouldn’t we have a single management member in here?” You point out and Mira lets out a warm chuckle. “Our manager had to remain in Seoul and we wanted to talk to you. We already handed off the contract to your team so they could review it.” Rumi explains and you nod as your phone buzzes with another notification from Anna. 

You flip it over and skim the texts and she seems very excited for you and is ready for you to sign the contract. Just as you’re typing out a reply she comes into the room and places it down on the table only giving you a quick squeeze on the shoulder before leaving. You review it twice gnawing on your lip while the 3 idols talk quietly. You keep getting distracted by their easy familiarity but finally, you’re ready to sign. It didn’t seem particularly out of the ordinary for a collab contract other than the fact that everything would take place in Korea. 

You sign it and slide it over to them and all 3 of them have unbridled smiles. “Fantastic. We’ll fly you out today and the rest of your team tomorrow.” Rumi says and you nod slowly. “So should I book a flight?” You ask curiously and Mira laughs. “No, of course not.” She says as if the idea was disdainful and you flush lightly. Zoey gently jabs her in the shoulder. “You’ll come back with us sweetheart as soon as you get your stuff,” Rumi reassures and you smile at her, your flush growing at the nickname. 

What you didn't expect was to end up standing in front of a private jet with their colors on it. You stood there staring at the gorgeous aircraft and as Mira walked by you swore you spotted a smirk. “You should close your mouth” Zoey teased as her arm looped around yours. She was tugging you in while a member of their team handled your suitcases. 

Now you feel a pang of guilt for having two even if one is really only the size of a backpack. There was no way you could go all the way to Korea without any regression gear. But now you wish you had argued that you could handle your own luggage with a bit more force. Before you could dwell on it for much longer Zoey was dragging you onto the jet. 

You glanced around spotting the stockpile of snacks almost immediately while Zoey pushed you into a chair. “We’ll take off in a few minutes” Mira said lazily as she draped over her own chair. Your eyebrow rose at the sheer lack of seatbelts on the seats and unease coiled in your stomach. Rumi had Zoey half on her lap and as if she could sense what you were thinking she reached across and she must've pressed a button on the side that you had missed.

A shimmery purple seat belt was springing across your lap and you stared at it. You hesitantly poked it and it seemed to spring back. “What is this?” You ask as you run your hands over the weird material. It didn't seem fully firm at all and you hadn’t seen anything like it before. “It's Korean material” Zoey said with a wide smile even as her eyes flicked anxiously to the other girls. “Curious girl hm?” Mira said her voice dipped into a soft coo that you had only heard her use with fans.

You shrank back in your seat a little and the pink-haired girl grinned triumphantly at your reaction before returning to her book. The plane took off a few moments later and you watched as Zoey didn’t budge from Rumi's lap despite the fact that you were positive that it wasn't safe.  Mira was engrossed in her book while Zoey and Rumi were having a conversation in Korean. Your eyes began to flutter shut. It had been a long day already and you were exhausted. Rumi seemed to know you were falling asleep before you did and she slid a pillow behind your head just as you dozed off. 

When you woke up it was due to a flick on the head and you glanced up to see Zoey standing above you with a grin. “We’re here!!!” She said excitedly and you smiled somewhat groggily but hopped up. You fumbled for your phone and the other scrap you had in your pockets before standing up. As the girls cleaned up before preparing to head off you took a brief moment to examine your seat. There were no signs of a seatbelt ever having been there. Your eyes roamed over the other chairs and you couldn’t see anything even hinting at a safety mechanism there either.

But before you could launch a less subtle investigation Mira was popping back in with a cocked eyebrow. “You coming Y/n?” Her tone was laced with teasing but you didn’t miss the way her eyes flicked over your face and then the chair you had been looking over. Her smile tightened but it didn’t waver and she was just reaching for your hand and tugging you out of the jet. 

Almost immediately you were struck by how…loud it was. And not just loud but rowdy. Your eyebrows furrowed but you quickly spotted the source of the chaos. There were groups of fans in the small airport hangar that the jet connected to. They seemed very excited but you couldn’t help yourself from shrinking back. They were like a whole different breed compared to your fans.

The three idols seemed to sense your discomfort as Rumi was smoothly pushing forward ahead of Mira and Zoey. She was flashing a smile and making quick conversation with fans while Zoey threw herself into interactions. Mira had a hand on your back and she was smiling at the fans but she was focused on guiding you out. 

Once you were past the fans all of the girls seemed much more relaxed and Zoey had a crooked smile. Rumi's hands were shoved in her pockets and Mira’s gait slowed down. You let out a small yawn but waved enthusiastically at the staff when you saw your bags. “Thank you!!!” Your eyes flicked to the way they bowed to HUNTR/X. You mimicked them but bowed to the staff. Small smiles spread across their faces while Mira muffled a small chuckle. 

You grabbed your bags before returning to the girls who were heading out and towards a sleek black car. The three of them slid into the back of the car and you followed them. Your backpack rests on your lap while the small suitcase sits at your feet. Zoey quickly pulled out her phone and you admired her teal case. There was a Polaroid photo of the three of them looking cute in it as well. “Selfie!” She announced and did a peace sign. You smiled widely at the camera while Mira had a closed-lip grin and Rumi looked rather confident.

Zoey shows the photo for approval and you frown. Compared to the three of them you looked plain and your smile was nowhere near as bright as it looked. “I look ass” You comment offhandedly and all three of them glared at you. “Don’t say that about yourself” Rumi said firmly and when you opened your mouth to argue Mira gently shut it again. Zoey snapped another selfie with a satisfied grin at how flushed your face was. 

The rest of the ride to their building was full of Zoey posting updates on social media and Mira and Rumi having a quiet conversation in Korean. You however were very focused on looking out the window at the stunning city of Seoul. You felt a pang of annoyance when the car stopped but all of that melted away when you spotted the building. It’s all but a skyscraper and covered in glass in different shades of sea colors. You didn’t even realize your jaw had dropped until Zoey was playfully flicking you and tugging you out of the car.

You hurriedly grab your bags and follow them into the lobby…? There were a few people milling around and there was a front desk. “This is where you guys live?” You ask in surprise and Mira chuckles warmly while the other two just nod. You slide into an empty elevator behind them and some instrumental song fills the space. “You don’t play your own music?” You tease lightly and Rumi groans playfully. But it quickly transforms into a slightly cocky smirk. “Well we do hear it everywhere else” She points out and you roll your eyes.

Zoey and Mira exchange a fond glance but you’re too focused on the way Rumi's cockiness softens when she thinks you aren't looking. “We’ll give you the grand tour tomorrow Jagi. But for now, we figured you would want some food and rest” Mira informs as the elevator doors open with a gentle whirr. Your eyebrow raised at the nickname but you’re too impressed with their living area to say anything. They had literal floating stairs. Who was rich enough for that!!

The three of them seemed to be only amused by your seemingly constant awe and Mira placed a hand on your back to gently push you further in. You stumble in and continue to look around narrowly avoiding walking into a couch. The girls don’t mind and Mira is just guiding you while Zoey smoothly snags your bags away. “Why don’t we take you to your room?” Rumi suggests and you’re rushing to follow Zoey who seems to move at the speed of light. 

It's only when you arrive at the doorframe that you realize what she said. “Oh, I thought I was going to stay at a hotel down the street?” You comment and Zoey frowns. “Why? You're our guest and you’ll be here for a little while too” Mira says with a cocked eyebrow while Rumi leans against the wall. “I just assumed-“ Rumi cuts you off with a light roll of her eyes. “That’s why you don’t assume” Her tone is laced with enough teasing to keep anxiety from flooding you.

You yawn but examine the mostly bare room. They’ve clearly left it up for personalization and now you wish you had brought anything beyond necessities. Zoey has settled your bags down near the bed and compared to the scale of the bed and wardrobe they look minuscule. “Alright! Food time!” Rumi says, clapping her hands and without question, the other two girls follow her out.

You linger in your new room for a few more moments trying to get a handle on your thoughts before you follow them out.  The three of them are settled on the couch all looking at Zoey's phone. “What are we getting?” You ask sitting down on the edge of the couch and Mira tosses the phone to you. You glance over it before looking up “I can’t read Korean” You deadpan and all three of them laugh.

Zoey takes it back and manages to figure out a translation app so you’re able to figure everything out. It seems like a lot and a lot of options and you find yourself a bit overwhelmed. “I’ll tell you what sweetheart we’ll just get a lot of options okay?” Rumi suggests reaching for the phone and you pass it over. 

You watch as she orders one of everything on the menu and when the total pops up you furrow your eyebrows. “Wait, how much is that in dollars?” You ask and Mira shrugs while Zoey laughs softly. “Doesn’t matter, silly. Our treat” She gently punches you on the arm from across the couch. You pick at your nails anxiously before fumbling for your wallet and trying to find some cash. 

Mira glares at you till you set it down a small pout adorning your face. “I have to pay for something.” You retort and she and Rumi have matching smirks. Zoey just shifts to sit next to you and begins to show you reels on her phone. You watch over her shoulder as jet lag hits you right in the head. Your eyes flutter but you're determined to stay awake and hang out with them. 

All of a sudden you feel Zoey tense up at your side and you watch the three girls exchange rapid glances. “We have to go!” Rumi announces slapping her legs and standing up with fanfare. Mira and Zoey quickly mumble excuses about an emergency meeting. You watch as the three of them rush out after telling you to make yourself at home and they’d be back soon. 

«♪{Mira}♪»

regresses anywhere between 0-3 years old, usually depending on the circumstances leading to her regressing.

has been regressinhg basically her whole life to cope with her abusive parents but never knew what it was. she'd repress it and pray (catholic guilt) it'd go away so she'd never get punished for it.

discovered the term agere at around 15, a few months after she and Rumi first met. she dropped HARD one day after overworking herself dancing plus repressing the need to regress all her life.

Celine was the one to give her the talk (having delt with littles before (third sunlight sister)) but it didnt't stop future overworking or repressing but they tried. Mira is just stubborn.

Rumi managed to take care of her tho, and even told Zoey how to take care of Mira when she came into the picture.

Zoey was immediately enamored with little Mira, spoiling her rotten with treats and kisses and plushies.

main caregivers are now split between Rumi & Zoey and Abby & Romance, with Celine, Bobby and Jinu being babysitters while Mystery and Baby are her playmates.

BIGG on nicknames for everyone she loves

Rumi is either "Ruri" or "Mama" depending on how old she's feeling.

Zoey is either "Zoo" or "Mama", depending on how old she's feeling.

Abby and Romance are "Dad & Pops" or "Dada and Appa" depending on how old she's feeling.

Celine is "Cece"

Bobby is "Bubs"

Mystery is "Misty"

Baby is "Bubba"

and lastly Jinu is "Gigi"

of course her caregivers have their nicknames for little Mira too.

"Mirry* and "Sweetheart" are Rumi's favourites, "Baby" and "Bunny" are Zoey's. Abby calls her "Little Trouble" and Romance calls her "Sweet One."

transgender, mtf. she could never do super girly stuff when she was young so now she does it when she's little.

tea parties and dress-up are an important weekly occurrence.

she might've eaten some make-up once during a dress-up but that's beside the point.

she sometimes steals Rumi's teddy bear because it smells like her Mama and is soft and comforting, even though she has a lot of her own teddies. Rumi pretends to be annoyed when Mira is big again but she doesn't actually mind. she thinks it's really sweet and purposely puts her perfume on her teddies knowing Mira would be drawn to their scent.

super insecure about her height, being the tallest out of the girls and just kinda above average in height in general.

Rumi and Zoey help by babying her to a ridiculous degree. "no, baby, you can't take stuff off high shelves. I can't even reach there, and you're littler then me. you'll get hurt".

she put it up there.

its not as much as a problem with Abby and Romance because they're taller than her, and Abby insists on carrying her everywhere.

she doesn't talk much when she's little, not seeing the need in it if she's happy and nothing needs to be corrected. the most she'll talk is either babbling while playing or when she's crying.

she tends to grab attention by tugging on clothes or humming when needed.

she cries a lot when she's little, not tantrums or anything, just soft cries and hiccups. everyone was a tad concerned at first at how easily she would cry over small things, her tummy aching or falling or not knowing where her caregivers are, but after learning that Mira wasn't allowed to cry as a kid it became comforting for her Mamas and Dads, knowing Mira was comfortable enough with them yo show she was upset when she's mostly non-verbal.

tummy ache princess (it's the ibs). she will be dramatic and lay on the floor, rotting, begging for cuddles that are given to her without hesitation.

her medical problems are a usual cause for her slipping, with the pain being too much and making her unknowingly regress. Rumi and Zoey are however always prepared with tummy-safe snacks in their pockets and lots of love.

wears diapers when she's little, partly because of her stomach problems and partly because it's just comfy. she already uses pull-ups when she's big so she never actually thinks about it too hard.

she bought some cute pink princess ones online because they help with her gender dysphoria by making her feel cute.

she has two pacifiers in her pocket 24/7, kept in a little plastic case so they don't get dirty. she probably doesn't NEED them all the time, but it's comforting to be prepared.

she also occasionally uses them when she's big because it helps her focus and is slightly healthier than eating gum 24/7.

it's cause some confusion where people think she's little when she's not, but it isn't ever serious. Romance teases her a lot saying she might genuinely be part demon with her oral fixation when it happens.

Ever After High girl through and through. She'll put on the episodes and play with her dolls religiously.
