Let’s this moment last forever.

Continued from [X] 

The actor froze at the sight before him. His body acting on it's own as he held Haru up. Ruby irises unfocused the moment he saw blood on the other's hands. Staining his white tank top. It was a color that burned his eyes and he felt them sting. He was was hit with a flash of anger as he finally gained control over the situation. He closed his front door with an arm around the swimmer. Leading his friend over to the couch.   ❝ Who did this to you?! ❞ He yelled without realizing his tone. He was angry at whoever would harm Haru. This guy was someone who kept to himself and he couldn't find a single thing about him anyone would hate. 

Was this a random mugging or was he in the wrong place at the wrong time? Scenarios raced through his mind as he ran to his bathroom and grabbed a towel and held it against Haru's wound. A huff coming out of him as he tried to calm down. He was getting way too worked up over this.  ❝ It's alright, Haru. I got you. I'm gonna call an ambulance. Someone should be able to patch you up.❞ He feared if he even tried Zen would only do more damage. One hand putting pressure on the wound and the other reaching into his pocket for his cell phone.

❝You’re so dynamic, that’s what I love about you.❞

❝ Well, as an actor. I guess I have to be dynamic. Don’t you think, Jaehee?❞ Although he was basically patting himself on the back he was grateful for the words. It wasn’t some compliment about his looks. His looks wasn’t all that mattered and he was happy Jaehee seemed to understand that. She liked him more than just his looks.

“…Someone to listen to you,” she murmured, as if turning that thought over in her head. How long had it been since she just had someone to listen to her? Probably since her mother died. She certainly didn’t have that from her relatives, and she had had no close friends since. The RFA were the closest she had, and even then she had trouble relying on them. She was too used to having to be independent, and keeping things to herself. “…You make it easier for me to open up to than anyone else, Zen. Thank you.” She took a couple of deep breaths, and did her best to clean her face off. One advantage to only being allowed light make up was that it didn’t run when you cried. She straightened herself up, listening to the last of the speaker thanking the contestants, and then there was the applause and the closing music. The murmur of the crowd picked up as people began to gather their things and leave and move, or so it sounded. Activity backstage began to pick up too. Jaehee turned a weak looking but determined smile on Zen. “Thank you again. Help yourself to any leftover food. Hopefully this will be quick.”

Zen waved off Jaehee's thank yous. Saying it was not a problem. But something about hearing that it was easier for her to open up to him. It made him smile even wider and was thankful to her words. The actor watched as she readied herself for the others. Taking this chance to stand up and brush off his legs and straighten himself out. 

A nod from him at her words. ❝Of course. I will see you when you're done, Jaehee.❞ A wave of his hand as he then eyed the left over food they had backstage. It was tempting, after all he didn't cook for himself at home. Not to mention his 'strict' diet so he could maintain his figure. A sigh as he chose to gnaw on a couple of fruits that were there. He wondered how much longer this would take. He wasn’t one to go to Jumin’s events often but he only liked to go for Jaehee.

❝Why do you have to be so stubborn?❞ 

❝I know you better than you know yourself.❞

❝You don’t have to be so rude.❞

❝You’re so dynamic, that’s what I love about you.❞

❝You need to learn to put yourself first.❞

❝Fuck love.❞

❝Well that was brutally honest.❞

❝Perfectionism only ends in disappointment.❞

❝I have to be perfect.❞

❝You don’t have to act so tough.❞

❝Why do you pretend not to care?❞

❝Don’t you believe in me?❞

❝I don’t think you’re as apathetic as you think you are.❞

❝I love your zest for life.❞

❝You’re really brave.❞

❝That took a lot of courage. Thanks.❞

❝Life really isn’t as great as you make it out to be.❞

❝Life really isn’t as bad as you make it out to be.❞

❝I don’t understand you.❞

❝You don’t understand me.❞

❝I know you’re only mean because people were mean to you but is this really what you want?❞

❝Your smile is contagious.❞

❝Why are you so self-critical?❞

❝Thanks for trusting me.❞

❝Of course I trust you.❞

H E A D C A N O N: White knight complex

It is proven through out the game that Zen would worry and advise the MC through out the game no matter what route you take. He tries his best to be a gentleman, refraining from making dirty jokes and saying that a woman shouldn’t be left alone with a man. (ie the many times MC has had to stay alone with other characters) He doesn’t even trust himself when the MC is alone with him during his own route. 

A part of this is a bit sexist, and I will admit that he can be. However, he has good intentions. I believe he would come to anyone’s aid should he have the opportunity. Growing up with his looks, he gained criticism/just plain abuse from others. No one was there to help him. So I think this is his way to  help others. He knows what it feels like to be helpless and doesn’t want others to feel how he used to. He is willing to drop anything for his friends and come to their aid, should it seem necessary. There are doubts that should Saeyoung or Jumin (should he ever ask) want his assistance, Zen would hesitate. One being a prankster and the other being someone he genuinely despises. 

As an Actor, he can play this person who saves people. A part of him hopes that his work can save people in a way that the act has saved him. Acting is his life and it is an escape from all the horrible things he had experienced as a child.

Happy birthday to Zen! <3

Seven's words only furthered Zen's confusion in his sleepy haze. He shifted to get comfortable while holding the phone to his ear. The wrist of this free hand resting over his eyes as he listened to the hacker's voice. Not quite registering the words coming from the other end of the phone. Occasional grunts in response coming from the actor as if to state he was still listening. Not quite understanding, but listening for sure.  ❝ If you don't like the silence, why don't you visit, Seven? ❞ Zen was so out of it he didn't quite know what he was talking about. Almost like he had been on auto pilot, answering his friend. Inviting him over without much thought. Unconsciously understanding the situation. Trying to remedy it to get some much needed sleep. Yet, the words said and words he heard from the phone. They seemed like nothing more than a dream. Once it had passed he forgot about it as sleep gripped him tighter. Beckoning him back to a real dream. One that wouldn't involve the hacker and his strange call.

@idealprince continued from [X]

Nope. No. Nah. This couldn’t wait. Well, perhaps it could. Well, it couldn’t. He wasn’t sure. His mind was going at a mile an hour and Zen had just happened to be the unlucky person that his phone had decided to choose at random to call while the hacker was having a semi-breakdown in the middle of the morning - or night. It was still dark outside. Seven would never have been able to guess it was three in the morning but now that Zen had mentioned the time, that guilt just added to the mountain of guilt that had been growing for the last few hours. “At 8am it might be too late! All the aliens might have gone home by then and then who would have missed the chance to snap a picture of them? Yip, that’s right! God Seven! Some God I’d turn out to be then!”. He was just rambling now. He was pretty sure neither he or Zen was paying too much attention to what was being said. This is just a consequence of having another nightmare and having no ‘maid’ to rant to.  Maybe a little bit of honestly wouldn’t be so bad. Zen might be too tired to even recall much of this conversation when he woke up anyways. “I’ll be honest… I may have just had a tiny bit of a nightmare and pressed the redial button because the silence of this place was driving me crazy”

“Your hair…” The colors illuminated against the bold, white strands had long caught his attention. “…the water reflected against it, I think it’s… pretty.” A musing thought, but a sincere one at that. // @aqualiic ~

First his eyes had widened realizing that Haru had been speaking to him. Then his beer sprayed from his lips and coated the front of his face as he coughed. A hand beating his chest light enough not to hurt himself. Putting the can down and wiping his face as ruby eyes landed on the man beside him. Zen thought the swimmer was saying it to get a rise out of him, or even as a joke. Anything. He hadn’t expected that look in Haru’s blue eyes. There was something different in them. Shining and clear like that water he loved to swim in so much. Zen had to look away as he coughed into his hand. 

His cheeks flushing at such a genuine compliment. Despite the actor’s overwhelming words of confidence about his own looks. He often felt insecure about how others perceived him. It was enough to also understand how Haru felt about water. Being complimented with something held so dear to the swimmer was something else. He couldn’t understand why it made his heart race. Settling for a quiet and simple,  ❝T-Thank you…. Haru….❞
