“You had an ex?” It’s the first she’s hearing about it. Then again, despite how long they’ve known each other, it’s not something that comes up in conversations. And now she felt bad for not asking. “Who is she? Does she know you still love her?”
" you wouldn’t know her. and yes, i’m sure she knows. i was never shy about my affection for her.” he’s smiling now, remembering dates and spoken words, late night conversations, and falling asleep side by side, “ she was my world. “

No formal plans. But he can see the way that Illhoon is talking about her. There’s fondness there, and maybe he’s not ready to admit it but it’s something that he can see in his roommate. Whether it’s deeper than surface level or not, it pleases the cat. “It’s really good to see you at peace, hyung. I can see it in your face. As your friend and your roommate, I’m really glad to see it. You deserve it.” Words like this come very rarely from the calico, and a ghost of smile dances on his face. “I promise, I’m not teasing you. I mean it.”
" i know you do. “ a warmth bubbles up in his chest for the other. life is...good. life is so very good right now. moments like this allow him to remember that, and relish in it, “ you deserve it to, y’know. you’ve been through more shit than i have, that’s for damn sure. all the praise you’ve been getting about your vocals, the way you’ve been made center in more of our choreography. you deserve more of the world than i do, i think.“ he doesn’t know the status of his ‘relationship’ with byeol, and he’s choosing not to ask. lachlan is good about discussing things he’s excited about - if something great had happened with byeol, it would’ve been mentioned by now.

“She called you sexy? I mean, she’s right. You’re more the visual than the werewolf, dunno why there’s any debate there.” Still, he’s happy to hear it. Illhoon’s getting somewhere with Seunghee. “She’s got eyes, are you spending more time with her soon?”
" we haven’t made any formal plans really. filming starts when we get back to seoul, for one. “ illhoon holds his script up, “ so i’ll be busy. and so will she .. i’m sure we’ll see each other more. at some point. when we can.” his mind goes back to the riverbed, where he’s spent more years with seunghee than she’s aware of. they’ve had a dozen or so ‘dates’ up til now, and they’re bound to continue as her stress builds and she retreats to the shoreline of his river to find peace.

“I thought you both would be star crossed. I guess not, that’s upsetting.” She sighed. “I understand. I guess it is different, I met Ethan when he was nearly a trainee and not a group member. You’re right, it’s different.” She shrugged. “I shouldn’t have been so insistent either, so I’m also at fault there.”
namgi opens a bag of chips not yet paid for and pops one into his mouth, “ i’m used to your being insistent. it doesn’t bother me. i don’t ... really know if i feel the need to be in a relationship right now. my last one ... “ was what felt like an eternity ago, but he can remember every detail of her face, each of her mannerisms, and it brings a small pang to his heart, “ i don’t ... think i’m really over it, i guess. though it’s been some time. i find myself still thinking about her. so i don’t even think it’d be very fair of me to date someone if i have someone else in my head. “

“I’d prefer not to, simply because of my own personal belief that talents should be praised. You’re a very talented young woman, never do anything you’re good at for free or discounted. It’s an insult to your abilities.” Yoobin smiled, gently resting her hand on her stomach. “What’s going on? If you don’t mind me asking? I’ve been alive for quite a long time and I can tell when a person is thinking very hard. As my daughter usually tells my son, if you think too hard you’ll have a hemmorhage.”
" well then, i’m surprised you haven’t said something sooner. i’m thinking hard all the time for one reason or another. “ she attempts a lighthearted response to mask the frustration spilling out of her, “ there’s a lot happening at work. d:fi’s had multiple comebacks, and when they went on tour i was put in cirque, now they’re considering putting me on a new group which has nine members and is managed by one of the members of reaper7. and i’m slated to work the new idol forming show two star’s going to start filming soon. so...i just have a bit on my plate.” is that enough to get her from prying any deeper?

“Beautiful as always, you always do such a wonderful job with my wardrobe for these meetings. I’d steal you away as my personal stylist if I could, I know Falyn would enjoy seeing you around more. She sings nothing but praises about you.” It’s important to look as ferocious as possible, especially being heavily pregnant, and around all these dignitaries of the vampire world. Who else to do her makeup and wardrobe but the young lady that her sister recommended who styles idols? “I won’t steal you away, but I do wish to pay you a bit more for this. I know it’s a side thing, and I appreciate it very much.”
“ it’s really not necessary. i’m always happy to help you, ma’am.“ her and her husband had been her key to the supernatural lifeblood of seoul. the peace, prosperity, and belonging that brought her was more than enough to justify her offering her services at a heavily discounted rate, “ i would do it for much less if you’d let me. “

“Don’t look at me like that! I thought it’d be nice! I’m just looking out for you!” Leia’s picking out some snacks for the next couple of nights of studying along with her groceries along with Namgi.
" i know, but i wish you had told me upfront she was like ethan.” like ethan in that she’d been an idol. that’s a flavor of relationship he’s not particularly interested in, “ it’s different for the two of you. you knew each other before he got famous. it wouldn’t necessarily be the same for me and her.” which is not to say he’d be the type to be open and instagram happy in a relationship, but he’d certainly like to be able to say her name every now and then without fear from a company ceo coming after him. especially two star’s.

“How are things going with the guitar girl? Did my absolute amazing introduction get you guys talking? Or are you still being a cold blooded lizard and pretending she doesn’t exist?” Any way to bring off himself, he’ll do it. He doesn’t want to have to tell Illhoon he was rejected. But he can absolutely tease his friend, that’s how their friendship works.
illhoon is reading through the script for a new drama he’s been cast in when the question comes. his gaze flicks up to lachlan, then back down to the pages, “ i don’t think you had anything to do with her calling me sexy.” and blatantly hitting on him in front of everyone.

can we start doing a “free rp theme” tag since the regular tag is overflowed with premium/paid themes that just… not everyone has money they can throw around for themes. and it’s hard to find free themes now.
not to mention you get bait and switched because if they are paid themes, the caption either doesn’t say or says so in tiny font. like, just put that it’s a paid theme??? so that people can see right off the bat? be transparent if you’re going to sell a product.

“I got to see her recently, my boyfriend’s kind of attached to Ivory Garden now through one way or another. She looks so glowy.” Leia mused. It would be awhile before she and Ethan would be thinking about kids, she’s sure, but the thought of looking that happy one day made her happy.
“Our sister is brilliant. I absolutely bet Grandma will know what to do.” If there’s one thing in the world that makes Harper Park smile, it’s the idea of seeing his grandma. Oddly enough, he’d felt more drawn to Ivory Garden and the leaders, his grandparents. “I’ll call? Should we do this here or go back to Leia’s?”
“ let’s go back to leia’s. so no one hears anything about…our family. “ he pauses before signing the last part of the sentence. They really don’t need anyone overhearing the conversation of a family that so casually mentions how they’re not human, “ hyung, can you use that twenty two thousand won to buy me a drink and a snack before we go ?? “ his expression indicates that if he could assume a teasing ‘tone’, he would’ve. but he was very serious – they’d been there all of fifteen minutes, and casey never got to order anything.

“I could do so more tutoring. I’m actually not an idiot, believe it or not.” Harper blinked a few times. “I bet that would be enough after a few months.”
“How about we call grandma? Wouldn’t that just be easier?” Leia steps in, pointing that out. “Grandma would be able to tell us an easier idea. I have to budget too, I don’t have the money to cover a whole vacation. Good thought, though.”
their grandmother was certainly a smart option. not to say harper wasn’t proposing a good idea, but they needed help on their execution. and he doesn’t know about the other two, but he hasn’t spoken to her or their grandfather since the fiasco that brought them back to south korea in the first place, “ i haven’t gotten to tell her congratulations on the baby either. “ the thought of a new immortal Park child on it’s way makes him smile.

“Now that I think about it, I had to convince dad to just pay for my key money. He wanted to pay for everything and pay my rent. Our house is big, so I imagine the mortgage isn’t great but Dad always seems to brush anything under the rug so we don’t worry.” Leia mused. “Dad’s really selfless. My boyfriend’s very similar.”
“How much spare cash do you two have? I have about twenty-two thousand won. What if we got some money together and bought dad a vacation? Or something? I dunno, you’re right, Casey.” Harper sips his coffee. “When’s the last time Dad did anything for himself?”
twenty-two thousand won. casey lets out a sigh, “ there’s not much you’re gonna get with that, hyung. “ though his heart is in the right place, which is more than what can normally be said, “ everything i saved up is pretty much budgeted for school expenses … i’d have to do some freelance work to get some extra money. “

He doesn’t have to say anything. It’s pretty much a universal thought what he was going to say. Here they were, completely fine. Casey is going to school, Harper’s doing…school, she supposed. She was finishing up her first degree and practically living with her boyfriend when he was free and had been doing that for four years now. She bit her lip, picking at a loose thread on her sweater.
“I’ve only seen dad get really upset twice.” Harper signs. “It wasn’t even because of me. And I shouldn’t…have probably seen it but.” He shrugs. “I overheard him talking to grandma on the phone, he was worried we wouldn’t be able to adjust to things. He was going through so much, and Dad was worried about us. What does that tell you?” As the eldest, he has to be more of a guiding light. He’s got a lot to make up for. “Dad wants to see us doing well and living to our best selves. Being happy, pursuing our dreams. It’s a big house but it’s not as big when he knows we’re doing well. At least…I feel like that’s true.”
“ … it ��tells me that dad doesn’t think about himself enough. “ casey confesses, “ he works for grandma. he pays for things for us and takes care of us. he fights for aunt amara and ivory garden. he does everything for everyone and nothing for himself. it’s like he doesn’t know how to. “

A note to self, he supposed. That did catch his attention. She’s on the older side, and he’s not in the least bit a playboy but he hadn’t met many girls since he’d gotten back. And all of Leia’s friends were ones he wasn’t allowed to meet or taken. Or so says Leia. “Oh, you know dad. He worries if one of us doesn’t get the recommended eight hours of sleep. Always has.”
“Remember when I got my apartment? Dad quizzed the landlord till I was sure he wasn’t going to take my key money. It’s no big deal, Casey. He’s just worried about you. It’s weird, dad doesn’t have any kids in the house now. I heard that empty nest syndrome happens a lot when the last kid moves out.” Leia admitted. “Clearly Harper wasn’t paying attention when Cecil oppa was talking about it. He’s your friend, Harper. Be more attentive.”
“ i sort of felt bad leaving … “ the thoughts he’s about to express are ones he’d sat with ever since leia found her own place, “ it was always going to be me who was the last to leave him. now he’s all alone in that big house. he doesn’t even have… ” he stops, not feeling the need to get to detailed, “ – it wasn’t supposed to be like this for him. “

“Ah yes, I’m a terrible brother for making sure this place sells the best caneles in Seoul. How terrible of me. If it’s not you have to tell me, canele guru.” Harper laughs as he signs back. Sometimes he still wanted to be back in New Zealand, but it was moments like these that he wouldn’t miss for the world. Just the three of them, he missed being the big brother. “Oh, a girl! Is she pretty?”
“Cut it out, Harper. You sound like dad.” Considering between the three of them, Leia’s the one in a committed relationship, does she really have room to talk? “Liam’s helping you out, right? Dad was really concerned.”
“ she’s in her last year of school. i think she’s closer to your age than mine, harper. “ not that casey had any romantic inclinations towards her to begin with. he doesn’t feel a whole lot of those in general, and certainly not in his first week of school here he’s adjusting to living on his own for the first time, “ liam does his job great. dad doesn’t need to be worried. did he say something? “
