Has your muse given pepero before? If so, who did they give it to and how did they respond? Kang Jin ( @wykj ) ; He seemed pleasantly surprised by it.
Colors fill the pages of her sketchbook in silence. The cold breeze outside softly brushes against one's skin, sending shivers down their spines. Leaves continue to fall down to the ground. Minah pauses for a second, lifting her gaze from her art. She finds a couple of students enter the coffee shop. She notices the couple among the group who fondly stared at each other while they held hands.
The female takes something out of her pocket and hands it to the male. Pepero sticks that are partly covered in chocolate with colorful sugary sprinkles on them. She must've made them, Minah thought. The grateful male kisses the female's forehead.
Minah can only smile, reminded of a memory long ago.
Once, there was a girl who stepped in a new land. A place she's never been to. This was home now, her parents said and she simply nods with a smile. What could go wrong? A new school promises her nothing but a new adventure to embark on. With a smile on her face and her brother on her side, the girl walks down the hall of the new school.
Unfamiliar faces pass by her and she continues to walk through the sea of strangers. In time, she becomes one of them. She was a new face and everything was unfamiliar to her. With each step she took and kind friends to guide her, she learns. She learns not to wander alone in the hallway after class hours, she learns that the cheer captain is the daughter of a pastor, she learns the name of the boy with the blond hair.
“Stay away from him as much as possible. He's nothing but trouble.” They said. “Who?” She asks, eyes fixated upon the male that stood out from everyone else. “Kang Jin.” His name was said like it was a cursed name that can't be said out loud. As if she was under a spell, Minah watched him pass by. Their eyes meet for a second and he stares at her. She doesn't lower her head nor does she look away like others do.
For a moment, the world stood still for them. “Kang Jin.” She says his name out loud. Enough for him to hear. But he doesn't stop for anyone. He was like a dragon passing through the skies, cutting through the clouds to make a path for himself. Life continues on. They are nothing but strangers whose eyes meet every now and then. Her friends made her promise not to get herself involved with him, but fate decided to play a game on them.
As the school festival comes close, the students have been busy preparing till it was pretty late. Minah tells everyone else to go ahead, taking the rest of the supplies to the storage room at the gym. Instead of simply putting the rest of the supplies in the room, she finds the blond boy. The door closes behind her, trapping them both inside. Her heart races at the sight of him. They were right. He's dangerous.
Dangerously attractive that she forgets how to breathe for a second.
They tried to get out of the room but they only ended up tiring themselves out. She's heard nasty rumors about the male. He's nothing but trouble, said her friends. Instead of finding a monster in the shadows of Kang Jin, she finds solace. Resting her head on his shoulder while his rests atop of hers. They were never the same after that. She was no longer a stranger to him and he, who was never a monster in her eyes, was now a friend. What they became was so much more than neither of them probably ever expected. They were too different from each other and yet, everything felt like they fit perfectly for some reason, despite all the imperfections that they have.
Minah walked side by side with Jin from then on. At one point, they started holding hands and began sharing meaningful smiles. Jin would show up at her volleyball practice and she'd always run straight into his arms. The words Mine and Yours were uttered frequently by the pair. She was his and he was hers. He made sure everyone knew that she belonged to him and she always reminded people how to keep their hands off of her man.
One afternoon, the pair sat side by side at an empty classroom. Minah was helping Jin with his studies when she slid the neatly wrapped chocolate covered pepero sticks towards his side of the table.
“What's this?” He asks, Minah only laughs. She felt shy. She has never observed those silly holidays that people made up but since she and Jin decided to be together, she couldn't help but want to try for him. He stares at her. He always does. He stares at mostly anything that catches his eye. At least, that's what Minah has observed while watching him. “A gift.” Minah tells him. “It's pepero day, Julie. It's my first time ever giving someone something like this. I hope you like it.” She leans in to press a kiss on his cheek without hesitation. She loves showing him affection especially when it's just the two of them. Resting her head on his shoulder. He's not used to affection, so he lets her do as she pleases most of the time. “I'm going to keep giving you pepero sticks on pepero day even after we get married,” Minah tells him, slipping her hands in his, letting his fingers fill the gaps in between her own.
“Kang Minah.” The name spills from his lips and Minah can only smile. “Yeah?” Brushing her thumb gently over his knuckles.

“ i don’t know where we’ll be going from this, but i promise you, it won’t be boring. “
perspective view | for @wyinsu
the small neon-sign lit up on the walls, hidden underground at the dark evening of downtown street, and both of her hands full with a plastic bag filled with supermarket snacks and one filled with two cans of peach soda. unusual for her to be seen around the particular area, but this person is someone she’d be thankful for.
the night when she cried because panic and anxiety surrounded her, this person suddenly appeared in front of her. their first interaction almost in the midnight, right in front of a supermarket.
he seems cold at first, with his poker expression and sharp jawline and strong gaze, made riino scared of him at first— but then when he helped her to open up the locked academy dorm gate doors, she was beyond grateful with such gesture from a such warm-hearted person, who barely knew her firsthand. they way he talked her anxious feelings over, calming her that everything will be fine, she learned that there will be solutions over such a hard times.
he taught her to be brave.
even though being reckless is still one of his traits yet his compassionate over kindness (in such a creative way) won her over within those few minutes of pick-locking and making sure she went back safely.
this is probably the only way she can thought of repaying his kindness; finding out where his tattoo parlour by eavesdropping the boys in her class, planning onto having tattoos on this particular parlour where In-Su resides after graduation.
she took a quick peek from the small windows, the sight of tattoo drawings pasted onto the walls, framed beautifully greeted riino’s eyes; truly In-Su has golden hands regarding on his works. maybe someday, when she’s of age, she’ll go to In-Su and get herself a tattoo that represents her the most.
His hard work, his creative mind, his careful hands craving inks and pigments into the skin that made into his canvas of work, his proud and satisfied smile whenever a client complimented his outstanding details. it made riino smiled as well, seeing someone influencing her life in such way that riino is grateful to being around him.
she hung the plastic bag onto the doorknob, and rang the bell, leaving a small care-package for In-Su with a note;
“Thank you for making sure that i’m okay, enjoy the peach soda!
She walks the earth freely, yet her feet never touch the ground. Many hands will reach for her, but she cannot be anchored. She belongs to no one, to nothing, to nowehere. When you meet her, you will recognise he for who she is-- a free spirit, a wandering star. She will fit in your arms like she was made to be there. And she will show you what it means to hold something you can never hold onto.
Are they even interested in the Yule Ball? Do they have a partner in mind to ask, or perhaps already invited somebody?
To be honest, Riino’s mind is elsewhere beside Yule Ball; it is good to participate in the Ball, to gain more friends, relieving the stress from school work back in Mahoutokoro (also attending the Yule Ball is encouraged by the professors, of course), Riino is torn between the interest of going to Yule Ball or bail out to explore Hogwarts at night. She currently doesn’t have any partners in mind or to ask. She just pretty excited to explore the grounds at night.
Is your muse quick to step forward to volunteer to dance? Can they dance well or do they have two left feet? Or are they remained seated, watching everyone from afar?
Riino would probably remained seated at the corner (she’s not really comfortable of dancing with someone or just dancing, literally.), alongside with her awkward friends; she’ll get up when she’s called to try out the dance but mainly; Riino would choose to watch and cheer for the others.
Are butterflies fluttering in their stomach well in advance for the big night or will their confidence guide them?
Of course, the sound of Yule Ball and everyone is getting dressed up in their best attire, making sure all the dresses are crisp and ready for the dance floor; just the image of getting dolled up made Riino’s heart flutter— but what excites her most is her plan to wander around Hogwarts at night, and watching how it changes at night.
Unrelated Yule Ball Questions
What is your muse’s love interest’s Amortentia aroma?
A mixture of pumpkin pasties, hot chestnuts, and parchment paper.
What is your Boggart?
Any of the Japanese folklore demons , all the yokai and oni that Riino could ever think of; but the most terrifying thing is Kuchisake-onna; the slit-mouthed woman.
What are your magical strengths? Weaknesses?
Astronomy is the strongest trait/knowledge in her; since she’s sorted in House of Shunrai, the pride in Astronomy class is well known across the school board and her immense interest in the science behind the vast galaxies.
Her weakness is definitely Defense of the Dark Arts; she is not good in memorising jinxes and hexes, and the spells just jumbled whenever she’s trying to cast one; she couldn’t get a grip of the words correctly.
Do you have plans for a future career in a magical field?
Probably, yes. Perhaps in the Japanese Ministry of Magic, specifically; Department of Mysteries.
What is your School, House and year? Do you have a sense of House pride?
━ Attending Hogwarts, Slytherin house (and proud) final year, No Haeun has a sense of pride like no other. Well known with varying degrees of recognition from admiration and beloved, to dislike and disdain.
What character traits does your muse have in relation to their House? Which are different?
━ In many ways, she’s a textbook Slytherin, the most recognizable of each trait found within Slytherin prestige and even a few that have faded out among the years since the fall of the Dark Lord. Someone willing to go the distance to achieve anything, with terrifying ambition, sharp intellect and a frigid disdain for rules that may hold her back. She does find herself with some traits that would nearly land herself in Ravenclaw, but those far and few are buried beneath the more prickly sort.
What is your blood status? How do you feel about other blood statuses?
━ Presumed pure-blood, so far as her father informed her. As a child who never met her mother or cared to know, she accepts that information readily. Blood status is of no immediate concern to Haeun, it’s the traits that make a Slytherin, not the blood.
What is your wand type?
━ Dragon heartstring core. Elder wood. 11in.
What is your pet?
━ A dark gray cat named Megu.
Are you a Prefect or Head Boy/Girl?
━ Head girl and proud, anointed and ever since, taking the honor all too seriously, despite being one to abuse her power more than she lets on.
Do you play Quidditch? If so, what is your position?
━ Not only does she not play, she detests it, brooms and flying a least favorite of hers. She finds matches a detestful waste of time and players brain dead wretches.

“ she’s got that sophisticated, street smart, spiritual, soulful, savage thing about her. “
perspective view | for @wyminjung
Oh, the sky looks dark—
Her sleepy eyes landed onto the gloomy clouds and faint claps of thunder, such a perfect weather for dozing off and letting her mind wander off elsewhere on the last period in class. just to take a mental note by herself, she has to stop by at a grocery store before heading to the library for after-school study, and that’s when the bell rang, snapping riino out from her wandering thoughts, quickly gathering her belongings before rushing out from the school.
it started drizzling as soon as she arrived to the grocery story, and the cold drinks aisle calling riino’s attention— she walked pass someone that immediately caught her attention; someone so stylish, with a bold black blouse shirt with floral patterns that she found so pretty and elegant; and her charismatic aura radiates brightly around this particular female, perhaps, someone with a very important role in her field?
the way she dress made riino shyly stealing some glances bit by bit while approaching the milk section; stylish, graceful, and very neat. ‘is she an actress?’ she thought as she took another look on her gorgeous feature with a long, silky black hair framed her small face perfectly, before deciding which milk she chose to accompany her during studying.
not realising the other is looking at her, riino quickly smiled at her and before she opened her mouth; the young lady told her about the strawberry milk (and how she look like a strawberry milk kind of girl), and all of the sudden, her cheek blushes, shyness wash over her petite figure as she nodded and grabbed a carton of strawberry milk.
she thanked her, surprised by how the young lady knew her favourite choice of flavour.
What are some misconceptions about your muse that they secretly wish others would understand about them? How did these misconceptions manifest and how does your muse go about trying to eliminate them?
“She's just popular because her sister is Bae Mari. Ugh, so talentless.”
While the public is fully unaware of the truth about the Bae Family, it's safe to say that people know they're related is kind of correct. Sure, Ahreum kickstarted her acting career though Mari's connections but a cameo on a movie wasn't what made Ahreum famous. Mari landed Ahreum a minor role on a sitcom as well, but her character could've been easily cut off from the show if she was such a bad actress. Ahreum disappeared after two projects and it took her years to get herself in another drama and this time, she got the lead role, all by herself.
The way she dealt with this: She continues her career as an actress and dominates the tv and movie screens. So the next time someone says she doesn't have a talent, she can give them a list of things she has done while they were so busy making comments about her life.
“She's just a pretty face, I'm sure she's dumb.”
Sure, Ahreum left Wonyang University on her first year, but she took an exam at Seoul National University and well, she passed and graduated with flying colors.
The way she dealt with this: She ignores them. She's way too smart to deal with ignorant people like them.
“That Ahreum girl probably dated a lot of guys.”
Contrary to people's beliefs, Ahreum is very picky with people she dates. She has never dated a co-star nor has she dated any fellow celebrity or slept with them either. Her minor slip ups do include being caught on a date with some guys, but isn't it normal for a young woman to explore her options before settling down? While boys take their time before they put a ring on it, Ahreum knows she can always say no to anyone before saying yes to the right one.
The way she dealt with this: Ahreum still goes out with whoever she wants to. Why? Because, why the hell not? If a guy asks her out and the guy seems to fit her standards, why not take a chance? No scientist will tell you that there was no trial and error process before their desired results showed up.
“She sleeps with anyone and everyone. She's easy.”
She isn't. Ahreum has had her moments. One night stands shouldn't be held against a drunk person. What kind of drunk person has EVER made the right choice anyway? Other than that, the only people she slept with are her then boyfriends. Except for that one friend that EVERYONE seems to know about. She's naturally friendly and openly affectionate due to her upbringing and her very tight bond with her brother. Can't a girl be sweet just because she is? Ahreum believes it's not her fault that people assume things. It's a choice they made. Not hers.
The way she dealt with this: Ignore them. She's sure they're just thirsty and need something to be shoved into their mouths.
“All she does is shop. I bet she spends more than she earns.”
Let me give you a quick rundown on what the Bae family members do for a living. Bae Juhyeok and Yoo Inha's occupations have remained disclosed for most of Mari and Ahreum's acting careers.
Bae Juhyeok was a simple businessman before he married Yoo Inha, who, by the way, is the daughter of a Hospital Chairman (which explains many things regarding the Bae family's records).
Bae Mari was a childstar turned actress and she's currently one of the respected senior actresses in the field.
Bae Junsu or Jasper, as he prefers to be called, is a songwriter who goes by the name Ezra to keep his life as Ahreum's brother and his work apart. Not to mention that the twins' father was a singer turned songwriter and producer.
Bae Ahreum is a star by her own right. She enjoys the pleasures of life by indulging herself with nothing but the finest things that money can buy. HER money. The ones she worked hard for. While she does enjoy spending money as much as other rich young individuals do, Ahreum has invested her money already for her own security.
The way she dealt with this: Buy more stuff. Buy insurance. Invest in cars, real estate, and bags. She has work. She works for herself not for others anyway.
“The only reason her relationship with her Mari is sour, is because she's jealous of Mari.”
No. Never. God, if only everyone knew the truth about Mari. Ahreum has never been jealous of anyone, especially Mari. Why would she be? Mari failed in so many things but refused to face them. Ahreum knew defeat and failure but continued to face everything. Head on. She was never and will never be jealous of a woman who couldn't even take care of her own children.
The way she dealt with this: Mentally curse at them. : )
“Her relationship with her brother can't be THAT good. Surely, they're just close on camera.”
WRONG. Ahreum and Jasper are inseparable, well, unless both of them have work or you know, already gotten sick of hanging around with each other for the day. Like any other siblings, they've fought and misunderstood each other but at the end of the day, they know they've only got each other.
The way she dealt with this: Bought Jasper a car. Surely that's not for show only.
“ there is no limit to how radiant, alive, and irresistible you can be. “

another sunny day, riino was seen walking down the streets of Yongdeok. passing through quaint boutiques and cafés, her eyes landed on a yellow sunflower that placed right in front of a flower shop. blooming at its glory, radiating through the cool tones of upcoming winter that painted all around the horizon of her eyes. it reminded of someone, someone that shines brightly as the sun and her soulful voice that left such a big impression on riino. serah, or known as soojung to her heart.
the girl who chirped cheerily whenever both of them saw each other down the road after school, the girl who always picked riino up whenever she’s down and sinked deep in sadness, the girl who sparked that positive energy and radiates to everyone else around her.
the girl who knows how to bring out the happiness in people.
the girl who riino always see her as a tough cookie, juggling both school and her career as a singer; she keep on shining, and shining so brightly to warm everyone’s heart with her works. riino couldn’t believe she met someone like serah, it feels like one in a million stars that fate brought them together. things wasn’t easy for her, just like a small star that explodes and died a little light, yet another new star is born; that’s what serah is, she got back up instantly no matter how life tried to shake her.
riino walked closer to the flower shop, peeking in to see whether there’s a staff around inside; and one approached her, asking whether she needs any help.
“can i have a sunflower? and wrapped in that yellow wrapping paper?” riino said softly, pointing at a bright yellow sunflower, that placed neatly in a bucket. the staff nodded and left riino looking for a small card for her to write on. she grabbed one and handed a cash to paid the flower, she carefully wrote her message to serah;
“soojung unnie, grow as big, as bright, as tall, as this sunflower! thank you for coming like a blessing to me! i love you!”
