#fmdtask007

It’s time for our seventh task! As always, please note that tasks are not required, but encouraged, and are only to inspire character development and activity. Everyone is free to do only what they have the muse for!

This task will be about your muse’s trainee days. It’s a period every idol goes through, and it may be as short as a few months to as long as several years, but it no doubt played a key role in making your muse the idol they are today, for better or for worse, so go ahead and explore what your muse was like back then! How different was their personality? Did they have different goals and plans for the future? Did they ever think of quitting before their career could even start?

Please keep in mind god-modding established NPCs and executives without permission is not allowed, but you have freedom to write mentions of miscellaneous trainers and instructors into your self-paras and threads that may have been involved in your muse’s trainee days as long as they don’t affect the company as a whole on a major scale!

Be sure to tag any completions of this task with #fmdtask007 so the admin can verify the earned points with a like!

Write a self-para about a memorable moment during your muse‘s trainee days. This can be something defining or something small related to training that your muse remembers for some reason. Examples of what might be a memorable moment for them would be the day they were confirmed for debut or the first time they got a positive evaluation from their trainers. It could be their first day as a trainee or their last day, or any day in between, and does not necessarily have to be under their current company if they trained under another company beforehand, as long as it happened while they still had the status of trainee! The self-para should consist of a minimum of 400 words and does not count toward your monthly limit. This can be completed once for three points.

Write a flashback thread with another muse taking place during their trainee days. The thread should consist of at least six posts (a starter and two replies from one side and three replies from the other). The six posts don’t have to be completed by the end of the task but the starter must be posted between the start and end date and points cannot be collected until the thread has reached the aforementioned post threshold. There is no word count minimum for each post, but they should be a length that allows for development. This can be completed once for three points.

Create an aesthetic and/or a playlist of what your muse wanted their idol concept or sound to be when they were a trainee. A brief explanation should be included to accompany these. A playlist should consist of at least seven tracks and an aesthetic should consist of at least six different images as usual. These do not count toward your monthly limits. This part of the task can be completed once each (one aesthetic and one playlist) for two points each for a total of up to four points.

A total of ten points is available for this task for each muse.

fmdtask007 → desired debut concept.

    every time he had entered the cafeteria in bc entertainment, his stomach would simply just churn like no other. he wasn’t entirely sure what it was. the food was decent and healthy, to say the least. so, it really couldn’t have been that. however, it probably more so had something to do with all the people that were lingering around the cafeteria. usually, duri hadn’t been someone that was really nervous around people, always the friendly one, ready to kick up a conversation. but, for whatever reason, he choose to purposely sit by himself during whatever things may be. he felt a bit calmer, less anxious with that choice. it wasn’t something he had understood; but, it probably had something to do with the fact that he wasn’t the best when it came to change. it was simply just how it was for him and this was one of the bigger changes. yet, he was still excited because he was chasing his dreams

"have you ever considered what you'll do if you never end up debuting?"

hyeju finishes taking a sip from the water bottle in her hand before looking at her fellow trainee. the question takes her by surprise, and she takes a seat on the floor, leaning her head against the wall. she's been living the same repetitive life for over three years now, and it's only now come to her that she's never even considered where this trainee life would take her.

For @fmdhyeju  Time Period: Around Jan 2009  Premise: Joo and Hyeju meet in that cafe that they frequent so often, even though they both don’t know each other are trainees.

Young-joo never intended to have stayed in the gold star practice rooms till she was locked inside them--she did stay in the practice rooms overnight intentionally, of course, but never unintentionally, like she did for today. Maybe it was just some strange work at hand, or just the irreversible fact that she was so tired from endlessly practicing the dance routine over and over again. Her bones ached, her muscles ached--even her skin ached (was that even possible..?) 

Joo gave a wide yawn, stumbling slightly down the path to the cafe that most of her friends went to for breaks from their regular practice. It was somewhat of a well known commodity amongst the gold star trainees, and ever the familiar but welcome sight to Joo’s tired eyes. 

“One coffee.”  She mumbled, placing her change on the counter with an ease that only spoke of over familiarity with the staff that were working in the cafe, shuffling her tired body over to the same spot where she’d always drink her coffee, or take short, minute naps during the various daylight hours during her breaks. “ Fancy seeing you here.” Joo barely manages to muster up a tired smile as she slids into her same seat, moaning quietly to herself as the warm coffee slid its way down her throat, her long lashes fluttering as they caught onto the familiar girl that she had befriended slowly over the course of her multiple visitations to the cafe. Hyeju, that was the girls name that she eventually learned. This had to be the fourth time they were meeting. Or was it the fifth? They’d already exchanged numbers with each other, and Joo never felt happier with her new found friend, whom she felt was more like a little sister to her half if not all of the time.

“Don’t look at me. I’m not wearing make up, I haven’t slept my full eight hours, and every piece of bone and muscle in my body is creaking like a failed machine. I look terrible.” Joo croaked as she sipped on her coffee.
