#sphere; thread

they're doing a lot better than woohyun could have asked for with this comeback. it feels like starting fresh-- like they're restarting their journey once more and it's going great for the most part. there's wins, more exposure for a lot of the members. it's a hardworking month, it feels like, and woohyun is entirely grateful for it. it feels wonderful, like they're getting back to normal. and he can only hope that this is the path they take on for now.

he doesn't think he can take it again.

between recordings and making sure the new additions get settled, woohyun finds himself moving through the halls of sphere during practice time. he's tired, a little worn out from the promotional month and the recordings and the constant need of improve, improve, improve. but he still wears his smile, nodding to trainees and staff as he passes by. it feels like he’s barely been in the sphere building, with how much they’ve been out and about as of late.

woohyun wishes he had more creativity to him. wishes he could conjure up a tune in his head that could be a song, figure out words that sound pretty and enticing enough to be used as lyrics; woohyun wishes he could do more for the creative aspect of their group-- wishes he was more like jinwook or yixing or any of the other members that could create some sort of musical piece, because woohyun surely couldn't.

he listens to campfire a lot, having known jinwook worked on it as well. he's proud of the younger for it, so happy to hear his work and woohyun likes the song a lot; it's definitely become one of the most played due to his sheer appreciation for his fellow vocal unit member, no exaggeration. and he isn't quiet about it, not one bit.

the rehearsals aren’t as tough for him after the last month of promotions. they’re still tiring, but the more he goes into it, the easier it becomes; the better he feels in the end. though he knows that’s not entirely the same for the trainees that are going to be performing. and woohyun feels for them-- had been in their position before. 

after convex’s rehearsal, he’s watching the sphere trainees do theirs. his eyes are curious, observant; takes note of the faces he knows, and the ones he doesn’t. his tongue pokes against the inside of his cheek as he carefully scratches at the corner of his eye to dispell an itch. he waits until the sphere trainees rehearsal is over and it moves to she’z, before he thinks to approach one. there’s one in particular he chooses to approach, one that has a bit of a center dancing focus stage. as he approaches the male, he gives a bright smile to the other, and as he catches their gaze, he lifts his hand in a gentle wave as he bows towards them.

it’s practice time, and woohyun’s decided to use it by practicing with sehun. it’s independent study, and woohyun’s focusing on attempting some semblance of songwriting. it’s not really anything...substanstial. more like ideas and doodles written on paper as woohyun sings under his breath. he taps his pen against the counter surface, lips jutting out into a pout and eyebrows pinched and furrow in thought. for a moment, he feels like he’s back in school, forced to study formulas and compositionary work over and over until he starts to dream of it.

they’re practicing for feel so good, and woohyun is humming along with the melody once they’ve decided on it. he mouths his distributed lyrics to himself, stopping once he hears the younger go to practice his. woohyun listens intently, following along with the lyrics in front of him, head nodding as he imagines hyun’s voice replacing the original vocalist’s. as he listens until the other finish, woohyun smiles-- wide and happy. he nods his head once, twice in a childish manner.

with preparations in full swing -- dancing, recording, all of the things a proper debut should have, woohyun finds himself losing more and more sleep. it’s something he should be used to, really; he’s always had trouble sleeping, so this shouldn’t be much of a surprise to him.

but of course, his body has to catch up at some point. and unfortunately for him, it happens at inconvenient times. the more they work, the more times woohyun finds himself dozing at the oddest of times, the oddest of angles-- and really, he doesn’t remember falling asleep, or even closing his eyes.

like now, he jolts up, a choked noise escaping him as he sniffles. he blinks blearily into the room-- squinting, the living area is mostly empty, and woohyun can’t for the life of him remember when exactly he had fallen asleep. there’s a sticky feeling on his mouth, and he smacks his lips and reaches up to wipe at it with his sleeve covered wrist. he grimaces at the drool there, glancing down at the area where his head was once pillowed-- and then slowly follows the shoulder -- not a pillow -- up to a head, to a face, and woohyun blinks once, twice. oh. 

@yienrk

dorm life is getting better; easier to navigate, easier to settle in and to adapt. there’s still some kinks to work out, little things to work around-- but for the most part, woohyun is enjoying it. it’s still a little cramped, still a little awkward at times, but it’s fine; it’s doable. 

he’s one of the first few to leave training for the comfort of the dumb. there’s a few stragglers that have been staying longer in the practice rooms. woohyun worries incessantly, but he understands that maybe sometimes having a little more time to yourself is needed; especially in a house of thirteen people. a little time away is good. 

he has his hair tugged up into a mini ponytail on the top of his head-- skin still damp from his facemask; he has a cup of hot chocolate in his hands as he hums, shuffles out into the living area. he pauses when he hears the door unlock-- and his eyes immediately flicker to the door. he stays perfectly still until the door clicks open, a figure slipping inside. woohyun blinks, once, twice-- realization settling on his features. he breathes out a sigh, relief settling in his bones; it was stupid of him to be slightly panicked-- other people live here, after all.
