#museception

i feel like i am traumatized enough! taeoh exclamou, dramático como sempre, pegando uma almofada do sofá onde eles estavam e enfiando o rosto ali dentro. eu só queria saber se tinha muita diferença dos... lobos daqui para os lobos de crespúsculo. eu acho que uma resposta de sim ou não era suficiente, mas nããão, eu tinha que dar corda pra você! taeoh saltou do sofá e começou a dar voltas, paranoico com as novas informações sobre o funcionamento do corpo de um lobo daqueles. ei, isso quer dizer que aquele lobo mau é um... alfa? a palavra parecia azeda na sua boca, mas, ao mesmo tempo, ele queria rir. era completa e perfeitamente ridículo.

Thank you for the inspiration darling :) I’m so nervous posting this XD

With your doors closed, but windows open wide

You won't let me in

But you'll let me peer inside

 We'll take some steps, but still be standing still

So if you can't move for yourself

For you...I will

 I will fan this ember into a flame

A roaring fire

And you'll tell me I'm to blame

 There might not be a reason or a rhyme

But I think you know what I know

This could stand the test of time

 This little lie is the most true thing I know

And if you dared, I bet you would let it show

Break down those walls, and let trust do its thing

This little lie might be our truth's beginning

 So unlock your door, pull in the window sills

In the dark I could show you how to make

Time stand still

 I'll be your shelter, your little pain pill

I'll be anything you want from me

Kai was just locking up his shop, deciding to close a bit earlier than usual, so that he could get to bed earlier in preparation for the big day tomorrow.  Just as he flipped the lock, he noticed a presence nearby and the moment he turned to glance over at the person, his eyes widened in surprise.

The petite blonde at his side was someone he hadn’t seen since high school, and despite all the rumors he had heard about her, she certainly didn’t look any different than he remembered her. 

“Woahhhh?! Ajumma?! Long time no see!” 

His teasing comment earned him a rather unexpected kick to the shin, and he found himself hopping up and down on one foot rather comically. 

“I think your memory must be getting bad in your old age, Kai. Or did you forget that I’m younger than you?” Elise pursed her lips at him, crossing her arms over her chest as she added in, “Abeoji.”

Kai rather dramatically switched to clutching at his chest, pretending to be personally wounded by, not one, but two jabs at his age. “Ouch! That hurts, Elise!” he responded, finding himself laughing casually at the banter that they still made so effortlessly. “So, tell me. To what do I owe this pleasure?”

“Your Open Mic Night tomorrow. I’m going to be attending, so... Just make sure you don’t bore me to tears, got it?” The debutante moved a hand to her hip and offered him a little smirk. If it had been anyone else, he might have taken offence, but Kai knew her well enough to realize this was her way of letting him know he had her support. 

“Aye aye, Princess.” he gave her a mock salute, followed by a playful wink. 

Elise’s pale cheeks flushed a light pink as she pursed her lips up at him, staring for a moment before she finally shrugged her shoulders and turned her back to him, seemingly ready to retreat. 

“See you tomorrow,” she paused, purposely flicking her mane of yellow hair so that it would smack him right on the face. “Oppa.”

The one thing that was guaranteed to bring him to his knees! And yet all he could do is burst out laughing as he watched her stride away from him, not leaving him any chance for proper rebuttal. 

“That’s just mean, Princess!”
