oMg your pj!AU is one of my favorite things ever do you still answer/write stuff about it??? What was everyone like before CHB/before knowing they were demigods ??
mm most of them were similar to how they are now honestly
jungkookās father is a military general so he spent most of his childhood moving around. jungkookās good with his body having spent his childhood around other soldiers and exercising with them/with his father. he has a fear of becoming attached bc heās moved around so much and had to break off so many friendships and so rather than learning how to quickly make friends with ppl his age, heās more withdrawn and so only really hangs out with adults who are mature enough to reach out to him first.Ā
yoongi was a rebellious kid. his mom is super liberal so she didnāt really care if yoongi didnāt do to well in school or whatever so yoongi was just like fuck it and slept in his classes if he went or skipped altogether to go make music and stuff. heās not much of a fighter honestly but his resting bitch face, fuck it all attitude, and constant absences somehow give birth to a scary reputation. honestly yoongiās more like a grumpy cat.Ā
namjoonās the opposite. heās a good kid. his dadās an academic and namjoon goes to class and attempts to read books from his dadās library. his dyslexia makes it hard for him to read but namjoon still likes words better than anything else. he especially admires the way rappers can twist words into raps with rhythm and flow and meaningĀ and so he kinda tries to emulate them by dying his hair and making his own raps. paired with his disheveled uniforms (bc namjoon canāt wake up early ever and bc he just canāt be bothered to look proper), namjoon always gives off the impression that heās a delinquent when in reality heās a giant nerd
seokjin is like his father, soft and quiet. he goes to school like a good kid, studies some, comes home, does homework, makes dinner for the both of them, and then eats with his father while discussing his day. seokjin never discusses anything negative with his father tho. he treats the burns he gets from cooking by himself, doesnāt tell his father about the kids who mocked him for not having a mom, doesnāt tell his father he saw the notice about the rent going up because he doesnāt want his father to worry about seokjin in any way. seokjinās a good kid really, a good kid who keeps a lot of secrets.Ā
taehyung is the class clown. everyone loves him. heās funny, heās goofy, he does magic tricks for them. teachers have love-hate relationships with him. he does okay in school, not terribly bad but nowhere near close to the top. taeās just got a knack for knowing people. teachers hate him bc heās always goofing around and disrupting classes but after a stressful day they sometimes come back to their desk and thereās a single snickers bar on their desk with a post it note that saysĀ āsorry iāll be quieter next time, love taetae :)ā and itās always a lie bc taehyung is never quiet but a smile somehow appears and the day isnāt so shitty.Ā
hoseok is like taehyung at school, loved and beloved. heās not as goofy as taehyung but he gets them laughing all the same just because heās so bright and cheerful all the time and his laugh infectious. he does okay in school for someone with dyslexia and everyone always offers to help him when he doesnāt get it. at home, itās a different story. hoseokās mom is constantly complaining about him and hoseok takes it with a smile always because he knows deep down his mom probably loves him but sometimes it hurts. really really hurts. he cries himself to sleep sometimes but every morning, he wakes up, tells his mother he loves her, and heads off to school with a smile.Ā
ah jiminnie. i think a lot of ppl are curious about him. heās not abused at home. at school, heās a big target though. heās kind of pudgy, small, cute. boys like him even if they donāt know why. but theyāre not gay, canāt be gay, no way, so they deal with their confusion the only way they know how. take it out on jimin. girls donāt like him quite just yet but they donāt hate him. theyāre indifferent. jiminās awkward, shy, unsure of who he is, only that he doesnāt have any friends and no one seems to like him. at home, his dad is the unaffectionate type. he loves his son, he does, but he doesnāt know how to show it. heās also not very tactful and heāll complain about jiminās abysmal grades or poke fun at jiminās appearance. itās not malicious in intent but it stabs jimin in all those places he gets stabbed at at school. jimin doesnāt hold any grudges though, jiminās got a big heart and a lot of love. it doesnāt stop him from putting up as many walls as he can in preparation for when he visits his fatherĀ
