zen picnic date
words: 1,173 You weren't aware of the amount of preparation that had gone into this date, not until Zen started emptying the contents of the basket he'd been carrying as he lead you to this very spot. Admittedly, the man did all he could to make sure everything was perfect: asking Jaehee about which cafés served the best pastries and cakes, waking up early to get the best fruits at the farmer's market, even figuring out which day of the week would be the best for you to go. He didn’t actually think he’d end up with this much food for the both of you.
Laid out before you were some sandwiches for lunch, danishes and croissants, a cake large enough for you to share, some iced tea and fruit juice, and honestly anything you could think of that called for the occasion, including some of the man’s favourite goldfish-shaped bread. The soft breeze carried the sweet scents of surrounding flowers towards you, and a quick glance upwards showed you what you had suspected; clouds, but not enough to block out the sunlight. Really, did weather as good as this actually exist? And Zen himself looked like a dream, what with his classic billowy button down that made him look every bit of your prince charming that he was. He ditched his usual ponytail in favor of letting his silver locks loose, two pins securing the strands to the back just so it stays neatly behind his shoulders. “Babe, this is- wow, I… you even got fresh strawberries?” You say as you reach for the fruits and hold them up. “You really thought of everything, didn’t you?” He chuckles and rubs the back of his neck sheepishly, looking at you and shrugging helplessly. “What can I say? I wanted this to be perfect for you.” And there it is- his signature smile that never fails to send butterflies into your stomach. It was your turn to look away, fingers now fiddling with the picnic blanket. You notice it’s your favourite color, too. “There must be a better word for perfect,” you smile softly as you shake your head. “This is more than perfect.” You almost swore you saw his chest puff as he nodded proudly. He leans over, tucking a strand of hair behind your ear. “Good, now…” Zen picks up a sandwich and holds it to your lips, dipping his head a little in an invitation. “You can have the first bite,” he says in encouragement, his other palm open under your chin and ready to catch any falling crumbs. So you leaned in as well and took a bite, eyes widening a little as you tasted the food. You’d half expected it not to taste as well as it looked- you knew that some places were just good at making their food look pretty- but alas, it actually did taste good. You took turns feeding each other and rating the food, Zen making mental notes about which ones you’d order again from. Between bites you smiled and laughed, your eyebrow raising the moment you spot a certain platter across you. “Hey, Zen,” you say after swallowing, turning your face to look at him. “Where did you learn to make a charcuterie board?” He almost spits out his drink but he pulls it away from his mouth. “Ah, that- well, you see…” He starts, setting his drink down and dusting off his hands. “I remember seeing them in those videos you always watched on TokTik, and-” You see him hesitate and you urge him on, nodding and gesturing with your hand, but the face he makes shows there’s still something holding him back. Zen opens his mouth. And then closes it. He holds up his finger and opens it again, only to pinch that finger between his lips. He sighs, shrugging helplessly before grumbling a little. “I asked Jumin what they were.” “You what?” “Please don’t make me say it again-” It’s not that you wanted Zen to suffer through admitting it again, really, but you could hardly believe what he just said. The look of shock stays on your face for a good few seconds before you reach out and clasp a hand around his. “You did that for me?” you ask, squeezing his hand. All he does is nod and raise your hand to his lips, delicately pressing a soft kiss there before staring at your joined hands, rubbing a thumb over your knuckles. “I know I didn’t really have to, but I did because you always looked like you wanted that type of thing when you’d show me those TokTiks…” You smile fondly as you lean over the damn charcuterie board and kiss his cheek, letting your forehead rest against the side of his face. “Thank you,” you say, and he gently holds the side of your face and keeps you close, chuckling a little before he turns his face. “Anything for you, prince/ss,” he whispers before kissing the very corner of your mouth. And when he pulls away, he tugs on your
arm. “Come here.” So you nod and with joined hands, he pulls you over as you maneuver around on the food, and Zen guides you to lay your head on his lap. “Now,” he says, picking up a cluster of grapes and dangling it over your mouth. “Do you want to try these?” You giggle and open your mouth, closing it around the grape and grabbing a slice of cheese, nibbling on it. “Fancy,” you say, watching him raise the grapes to his own mouth and offering him your cheese after he does, which he gladly accepts. He only laughs at your statement and sets the grapes down, both hands behind him as he leans back and just admires your face. You’re not entirely sure what Zen’s view is of you, but god, the view you had of your man… The oil-painted sunset of the sky was the picture perfect backdrop to the beauty of your boyfriend. It was him- the center of your attention, your only focus. There was a fondness in his eyes, a certain adoration that was there just for you. It’s not like you could see your own expression, but surely enough there was a matching lovesick look you both had that the rest of the world envied. The kind you only ever saw in movies. And Zen had been in movies, yes- but these moments were entirely special. This was real. This was yours. Because you can reach out and touch his face like you do, you can brush your thumb against his cheek and make the corner of his mouth quirk up like that just for you- And you can pull him in gently, like this, because he’ll follow- he’ll always follow, always go wherever you take him. So his lips meet yours, they do, and you kiss him back soft and slow and everything you’ve ever dreamed of. Except with him, you dream with your eyes wide open.
mystictober day 9: theater + hourglass
zen + theater + hourglass
words: 1546 (don't ask why it ran long...)
wanna be tagged? dm me/comment!!
There is an hourglass on your bedside table that you got from the last flea market you went to with your best friend. She was looking for a certain book that her boss sent her to find, and you had poked around and looked at what else they were offering. The owner said that it didn’t work anymore, but you thought it looked cute- especially since the sand was a pinkish red color that seemed to shine gold in the light and its frame had these diamond shapes that made it unique. So despite what the owner said, you still went ahead and bought it.
You figure the owner must have been mistaken, because when you got home that day and placed it in its spot, you saw the sands trickling down to the bottom half of the hourglass- albeit at a rather slow rate than usual. Whether it measured a week or a month or a year, you weren’t exactly sure. But you paid it no mind, simply content to use it as a decoration.
Most days you never spared it a second glance, but over the course of the year, you’d find that a noticeable chunk had gone missing from the top and fallen into the bottom of the hourglass. You weren’t exactly waiting for the sand to run out, but you wondered when it would finally happen.
Hands blindly search around the table, the hourglass shaking a little when you bump into it on your way to shut off the alarm on your phone. Sighing, you sit up and rub your eyes, blinking them open and awake. As your feet pad their way to the kitchen, you try to remember why it is you set an alarm today when you had no work- but your phone ringing all of a sudden again reminds you why.
“Good morning,” the voice on the other end of the line chirps. Your best friend is rarely this cheerful this early, and despite how groggy you feel, you manage to make your voice sound alive.
“Hey, Jae!”
“I wanted to make sure you were awake,” she laughs. “And you are! Will you be ready soon?”
“Mhm! Just let me eat and shower and all that,” you reassure her as you begin to prepare your breakfast.
“Alright, alright…oh! Did you listen to the-” Jaehee begins to ask you excitedly before you cut her off.
“Yes, yes! I’m ready. A hundred percent ready for the show, all thanks to you!”
“Okay,” you can hear the sheepish smile in her voice through the phone. “Sorry, I’m just really excited…”
“You should be! Now, let me finish up and we’ll meet at the theater soon okay?”
You both say your goodbyes and you finish up your business in the kitchen, staring at the sink for a moment after you put away your dishes. With a deep breath, you exhale and shake your head, walking towards your bathroom to prepare for the long day you knew you had ahead of you.
It doesn’t quite sink in that you’re going to have the full experience of this show, stage door and dressing room tours included, all thanks to Jaehee. You didn’t know how to repay her- getting her to accept your share for the tickets was hard enough.
But now you stood beside her underneath the giant marquee, flashing wide grins as Jaehee’s phone snaps a selfie of you two. The fangirl squeals excitedly and quickly uploads it to the messenger accompanied by some of her emojis before she pockets her phone.
Even though Jaehee had showed you the cast recording and you’d watched a few potato-quality videos on MeTube, nothing could have ever prepared you for the live performance that was happening before your eyes. Your friend was right, and you understood exactly why her adoration and support was so strong and unwavering.
Your eyes are glued to Zen the entire time he’s on stage, his voice absolutely captivating you with every note he sings. Each time he moves, it’s a sight so heavenly- the lights and smoke giving you the illusion that he was dancing on a cloud. And he might as well have been, with the way he glided across the floor. By the time the cast took their final bows, you found yourself wiping at a few stray tears that had escaped as you clapped rather loudly, you and Jaehee joining the others who were giving standing ovations as well.
It takes you a minute to collect yourself, sitting and chatting with your best friend as the rest of the people made their way out of the theater. Fortunately for you, Jaehee had already insisted on buying merchandise during the intermission, so there was no need to rush in line. You both made your way to stage door, the fangirl bouncing rather excitedly on her heels beside you. Swallowing, you turn to face her.
“So, Zen…”
“-Was so amazing, right? Did you see how beautiful his hair was? He didn’t even need a wig for this role! It’s actually that nice, and did you notice…”
You chuckle at your friend’s enthusiastic rambling and nod along, blushing a little as you remember all the details about the actor and his performance that Jaehee brings up again. Before you can chime with any of your own comments, though, a smooth, baritone voice interrupts the conversation.
“Aha, I see Jaehee here has already put in a good word,” the actor chuckles as he places a hand on her shoulder, squeezing it lightly. She bashfully stops mid-speech, turning to face Zen.
“I couldn’t help it,” she shrugs, giving the man a look. “You just did so well!”
To this, you nod, endeared at your friend’s display. You also try to drown out the screaming that has suddenly surrounded you.
“I did my best,” he says humbly before turning to face you. “Now, I don’t believe we’ve met. I’m Zen.”
He flashes his signature smile and reaches his hand out. You go to shake it, but he gently maneuvers his palm underneath to catch yours. Raising your hand, he presses a gentle kiss to your knuckles.
Somewhere in your darkened apartment, the final sands in the hourglass trickle down to the bottom of the timekeeper as you manage to tell him your name.
“I’d love to get to know you more and catch up with Jaehee, but I have some things to sign,” he gestures to all the people waiting. Zen speaks again before you can even begin to feel bad about holding up the line.
“Will you guys wait for me over here? I promise I’ll be quick!”
“Of course! It’s no trouble at all, right?” Jaehee answers before you can as she turns to you, waiting for your input.
“No, it’s not! We’ll wait,” you smile, linking your arm with hers.
“Perfect!” is the last thing Zen says, then he uncaps his marker and quickly makes his way down the line.
It looks like he’s shining. You’re not sure whether it’s just the sun hitting his alabaster skin, or stage makeup he hadn’t properly taken off yet, or the way he flashed his pearly whites- but he looked almost golden in his element. Jaehee catches you staring, but who was she to say anything if she was doing the same?
Once he’s out of good earshot, your friend speaks up.
“I think he likes you,” she says as nonchalantly as she could, pretending not to observe your reaction.
“What?”
Zen chooses this perfect moment to spare you a glance, to spare you a smile. Of course Jaehee catches this, too.
“He kissed your hand,” she tells you knowingly. There’s a look on her face you can’t quite read.
“He was probably just being a gentleman,” you quickly jump to his defense, swallowing slowly before smiling back at him.
“He doesn’t really do that to begin with,” she quickly responds. Mentally, Jaehee goes over all the times she’s seen Zen kiss a girl’s hand. Sure, the man was a flirt, but if she didn’t count all the times he did it to a stranger for the sake of formality, well… there was nothing else to count.
Before you can say anything else, Zen jogs back up to you, several gifts in hand. How can he carry all that in one hand?
“Alright, I gotta put these away before continuing. You guys can wait in my dressing room instead, I’d hate for you guys to get cold out here.”
Jaehee is surprisingly silent. She nudges you.
“Ah, that’s alright! Yeah, we can wait there,” you reply, shooting Jaehee a look after he takes the lead.
“After you,” he says, holding the door open.
“Thanks,” you mumble with a blush.
As you pass him by, his scent tickles your nostrils and you think another whiff will make you absolutely intoxicated. Your shoulders brush, and for a moment, you lock eyes- both of your faces falling into soft smiles.
You don’t know what it is, at all. You just met this man. Sure, he was devastatingly beautiful, but there was something else that was there.
The hourglass would never tell its secrets, but you had a feeling you were going to find out anyway.

MYSTIC MESSENGER WEBTOON
I DON'T KNOW IF ALL OF YOU NOTICES THIS, BUT PROBABLY IS A GAME REFERENCE 🤭🤍
GOD! I'M IN LOVE WITH THIS MAN
Zen also breaks the fourth wall xD And don’t worry Zen, you aren’t the only one who watches ‘’that’’ genre xD
Zen’s Valentine event
So, I only recently bought VD event for all of the guys and I loved them. They are full of fluff and we get to see how looks relationship between our favorite couples looks <3 . Zen’s was great, except the ending. He brings MC to Rika’s place which he decorated with bunch of cute stuff and rose petals and in the end it’s implied that ‘’the beast is awaken’’ And I am like:’’Please don’t have sex at Rika’s place, YOU KNOW THAT SEVEN STILL HAS ACCESS TO CAMERAS’’ LOL other than that, VD event was great ;D
Jumin is my favourite, but Zen has precious moments too :)

RFA minus jeahee (sorry) and quarantine dates & activities
so i did actually try to write jaehee but i haven't played her route yet and the poor girl is so swamped by work in all the other routes i don’t feel like i have actually gotten to know her so rather than wing it and do something wrong i might just add to this once i finish her route (i’m just starting zens now but her’s is next) anyway here you go.
the RFA boys and how they pass the time in quarantine with MC (nsfw implied only)
Jumin
- Wine
- Candle light
- He draws you both a bath
- You massage his shoulders and he washes your hair
- Y’all talk for a long time
- You may or may not doze off while leaning back against his chest as he tells you about the new C&R program to help employees through quarantine
- The next morning, he makes you pancakes and half way through breakfast you remember the cat safe pancake group from the last RFA party
- You both spend the rest of the morning making pancakes for Elizabeth
- You download an audio book to listen to while you knit and he does his needle point
- You two pause it frequently to comment on interesting facts
- Its comfortable, its sweet, its … kinda boring after a while
- Then his eye’s gleam and you start to get worried
- 3 hours and 1 cat outfit later y’all are both exhausted and definitely not bored anymore
Yoosung
- He teaches you LOLOL and you show him your favorite games
- Rom com marathon
- Youtube & Netflix bingeing
- Screen headaches ensue
- Both of you lay on the floor in the dark because that helps
- After a bit you suggest a different game and he groans at the thought of the bright screen
- You laugh and pull out battle ship (look it glows in the dark!!)
- Okay yeah that could work
- He makes you breakfast, you make him dinner, Lunch is leftovers
- You two share headphones and slow dance together it reminds you both of your first RFA party
- You can’t help but lay your head on his shoulder and half sing half whisper the song against his neck, you just feel so safe and content in his arms
- After a while you run out of games and have to make you own
- Not all of them are PG13
Saeyoung
- Y’all put on cute little karaoke shows (he may or may not save the CCTV footage)
- you sing duets a lot you sing the male part while dressed as seven and vice versa
- Quarantine bingo to see who (cleans, cooks, whatever chore needs to be done)
- Who can embarrass who most in their work video call as time goes one more and more things get added to the forbidden list
- Best prank war ever (until saeran gets caught in the middle and now everyone’s in trouble)
- PARKOUR a la office style
- He teaches you Arabic
- Lots of naps on the couch while the news plays on TV
- you convince seven to give you a standup routine
- boy has showmanship and you can’t convince me otherwise
- long drives to nowhere
- DRESS UP!!
- Y’all do each other’s makeup and nails
- You never make it out of the bedroom when your dressed up though
Zen
- Musicals galore, you two watch every musical in existence
- You frequently pause to ask him to play a certain part or sing a certain song for you
- He insists you play the love interest for those parts
- When you shakily and nervously sing the love song duet the beast is unleashed
- Relaxing Beauty treatments!
- You help him make lots of encouraging videos for his fans
- He shows you his workout routine (but you can’t concentrate)
- you show how much you appreciate his workout routine
- you try to do his strength training stuff he thinks watching you try so hard is cute
- y’all play drinking games
- he teaches you to dance
RFA karaoke and the songs they sing with MC
Jumin
- he is hesitant at first so he just sits back and sips his wine while everyone else sings.
- Then you ask if he’ll sing a song with you.
- You give him that look you know he can’t say no to and he agrees.
- you two start with a cute little love song
- Something stupid
- then he can’t deny he enjoyed singing with you so he sets out to find another song.
- The best is yet to come
- You two end up singing a couple of duets together mostly slower love songs with a more vintage feel.
- The way you look tonight
- On the way home you admit that his singing voice sent shivers down your spine and he decides he’ll have to sing for you more often.
Yoosung
- Yoosung is so down for the karaoke night you suggested and he’s already got a hundred and one songs he can’t wait to sing with you
- but then zen sings first and wow Zen is good and Jaehee chimed in a little during the chorus and her voice was pretty good too.
- Maybe he shouldn’t sing after all. Wasn’t he a little out classed? Now that he’s thinking about it even Jumin had a nice voice that was really manly.
- You saw him get progressively quieter and you knew something was up so you stepped in.
- “yoosung their really good. I don’t think I can sing in front of them.” You pouted scooting closer to him
- “I can’t do it alone. would you, would you mind singing with me?”
- he’s a little red and nervous but he nods and you chose a song you know he loves.
- Heart beat song
- Halfway through the song you see him let go and start to have fun and so do you laughing and dancing to the music.
- Shake it off
- You’re watching him get more comfortable and his enthusiasm is infectious
- You haven't seen the RFA this happy and lively in quite a while
- You’re so happy you suggested it.
- Your never fully dressed without a smile
Saeyoung
- The second you saw it you queued it up before anyone could stop you
- All star
- How could you not choose it
- the second it started you locked eyes with saeyoung and tried desperately not to die laughing at how ecstatic he looked
- “some BODY once told me”
- He chose the next song for you and you couldn’t help but laugh this time as he belted out
- Take me on (absolutely don’t watch the video and think about saeyoung making it into the real world like that)
- Everyone is groaning. their ready to kick both of you out but you cross your heart “no more meme songs”
- The grin on both of your faces never leave as you laugh at each other’s antics
- So when the last song plays everyone looks ready to fight saeyoung before you step in
- “Sorry! Sorry! it was me! I picked it before the promise it’s the last one I swear!” You manage between giggles
- Secret agent man
Zen
- He knows all the musical numbers and he is ready to rock them
- But he sees you itching to sing and finds you too a good duet
- You’re the one that I want
- He swears he’s never heard anyone sing that part so well
- He almost takes you home then and there
- But you find another song to sing with him
- Ten minutes ago
- he’s never been as in love with you as the moment you sang
- “In the arms of my love I’m flying”
- You sit in his lap after that and you can tell he’s really struggling to focus on anything but you
- So you push it a little farther with one last song
- Lay all you love on me
- This time he really does take you home immediately
Jaehee
- Jaehee may have only come to see zen sing
- she is not planning to sing.
- but you offer to sing with her and she agrees nervously
- 9 to 5
- Jumin keeps a straight face
- Zen is laughing at what might be the best musical roast he’s ever seen
- After that she has a little to drink to help her relax
- And maybe to avoid looking at jumin “maybe 9 to 5 wasn’t such a good idea”
- As the night goes on she gets more and more drunk confident
- riot
- Her song choices are getting a little worrisome so you steer her away from “i’m overworked and angry. let’s kill somebody” and towards girl power songs
- The night ends happily enough with you two singing
- Run the world
- The next day she asks what songs you two sung. a little afraid of the answer. You smile sheepishly before telling her she got a little edgy in the middle there
- She groans and covers her face explaining that work has been very aggravating recently
- You console her and make sure to help her work through some of that aggression outside of her regular Judo classes
bonus songs MC chooses for her S/O
Jumin you ask him to sing “sharp dressed man” because you think its practically written about him “I am crazy for a sharp dressed man”
Yoosung Cheerleader whether you or yoosung sing it. its perfect and cute and makes you both happy
saeyoung take me to church you may wait to get home to sing this to him. or not just to tease him
Zen young and beautiful you chose this because you knew it would hit him hard. he’s always a little worried people only like him for his looks so when basically assure him that you will still love him “when he’s got nothing but his aching soul”
jeahee “i kissed a girl” did you just unfriendzone yourself? well at least you hope you did. at the very least you made her think about kissing a girl.
The RFA boys and how they express love
I swear someday I’ll play jaehee’s route and I’ll come update this to include her but right now I’m on the route of pain and sorrow and I don’t know how to stop. its only like day 4 of the “another story route” and I don’t see this shiz getting any less painful. if anyone wants to send me jumin or yoosung fluff it would be much appreciated oh and also is there an easier way to tag?
anyways without further ado. I hope you guys enjoy my take on how the RFA boys express their love.
Jumin
If its planned: spoiling you he buys gifts. he loves your smile when he surprises you with a gift and you love the goofy grin on his face when he gets to spoil you. At first it made you nervous. You didn’t like the idea that he thought he had to buy your love. You didn’t want him thinking you stayed with him just because of the money, especially since you would gladly stay with him even if he had nothing. You confronted him about this after your first valentines together. You didn’t plan on crying though and the second the first tear fell you could see Jumin’s heart break. He explained that he wasn’t giving you gifts to make you stay, he bought you gifts because he would pass by something and think of you. He bought you gifts because even the thought of your smile made his day better. he bought you gifts because he loved you and not to make you love him. You launched yourself at him catching him off guard you tumbled to the floor together as you nuzzled into his chest. He laughed at your antics as he wrapped his arms around you in kind.
If its unplanned: physical affection He isn’t used to affection. Especially romantic affection so his tolerance is fairly low. He can tend to get swept up in the heat of his emotions so when he gets overwhelmed by his feelings towards you there’s only really one outlet. (wink wink) he doesn’t enjoy PDA however so more often than not he’ll whisk you away to somewhere private. The second his lips meet yours you practically drown in his passion and you wonder how anyone could call this man a robot when he his every movement was filled with love and heart. You suppose you could be the only one who has the privilege of seeing him like that and pride wells up within you as you lean into his embrace. You love him like this just like you love him when he sits at his desk working intently. Everything about him seems to call out to you and in this moment you hope he can feel it.
Yoosung
If its planned: games with you fun it this cutie pies middle name. he plans dates complete with games and roleplaying adventures (look at his valentines DLC where y’all played like it was your first date). He enjoys nothing more than seeing you laugh and play with him. Sometimes he worries you won’t take him seriously though especially after someone else treats him like a child. You always know this has happened because he’s not up for your normal games. He gets agitated when you call him puppy and cutie. This is your cue to remind him that being cute doesn’t make him less manly. You tell him you love his cute side because no matter how hard your day was he never fails to make you smile. You remind him you chose him. You chose him and no one else.
If it isn’t planned: takes care of you this precious boy is all about acts of service. You wonder if it has anything to do with his Kink desire for praise. He wants to do things for you. Anything! He likes to cook for you and help you study or teach you a new mechanic in your game. It makes him feel strong even if he can’t beat someone in a fist fight. The more he helps you the more useful and secure he feels. You assure him that he doesn’t have to do anything to earn your love and affection “you just have to be yourself puppy! I love you for you not what you do!” but you let him keep doing things because it gives you a good excuse to praise him and the look in his eyes when you praise him it far too good to give up. He gets all red and starry eyed you could almost swear he’s having an out of body experience. You’ll admit you get a bit uneasy when other people praise him because of this though, that being said you don’t want to stop it if it makes him happy. So instead you simply double up on your cuddles and praise when you get home.
Saeyoung
If its planned: hand made gifts for Saeyoung a gift means nothing if it’s not personalized. When he gives a gift its always handmade or hand built maybe. Either way its hours spent to prove how much he cares about you. You can guarantee that a gift from him is more than the sum of its parts. He likes watching you interact with his latest gadget discovering all its hidden uses and programs. His favorite part is when he can tell its surprised you, he thinks the mixture of shock and mirth on you face is the most beautiful thing he’s ever seen. Every gift he gives you gets increasingly complex, from that first robotic cat made to simply keep you company to his latest gift which even after 3 months your still finding new things the glowing long cat robot (extendo-elly the 4th) can do.
If its unplanned humor he loves to make you smile. His jokes and memelord nature wasn’t completely for show. He genuinely enjoys seeing you laugh. He’s constantly looking for new ways to have you ROTFL’ing. Once he sent you a meme completely in binary just so he could watch you translate it and face palm while you giggled to yourself. He considers the times when you punch him playfully tears of laughter in your eyes to be a rousing success. He learned pretty fast you enjoyed his cosplay that you always thought one of two things. You either thought it was beautiful or you had to practically bite you hand to stop your giggles. His showmanship only grows from there. If you’re feeling down, he makes it his life’s purpose to bring your smile back even if it means making a fool of himself (especially if it means making a fool of himself).
Zen
If its planned quality time Zen just wants to spend time with you. He likes being near you even if you’re doing nothing. When he does his strength training you do yoga, when he practices lines in the living room your sitting on the floor laptop in hand. He likes to be near you so he plans date’s where you can simply be together. Stargazing, motorcycle rides, even trips to museums if that’s what your into (though you might have to help him understand why that stuff is important). he likes catching glimpses of you while acting, hearing your voice while he’s chatting with a fan, recognizing your perfume as you rush past him for an onset project. It’s partly why he wanted you as his manager, the other part was that you where damn good at it. You could juggle the RFA party and his shooting schedule and the upcoming auditions like you were born for it. Honestly he was just so thrilled to be with you whenever possible.
If its unplanned praise let’s face it this boy is dramatic as all get out. So when he gets overwhelmed he can’t help but revert to those cheesy lines from his plays. He’ll shower you in praise and love and you’re always a little worried that one day he’ll just start spouting Shakespeare. he calls you princess and angel while fawning over you because he just can’t help it he loves you and if he can’t spirit you away to a nice private place when he can unleash the beast, then he’ll simply have to verbally drown you in praise and love.
audition of a lifetime
a Zen x MC ficlet (850 words)
MC is watching over Zen’s latest audition when she begins to feel sick. she rushes to the theater bathroom where her water breaks.
FLUFF I hope you enjoy it. also I have no idea if this would make someone more or less likely to get the role so I’m leaving that to you does Zen get the role? if he does will he accept to help pay for new baby stuff or refuse to spend time on baby.
You where sat off to the side as Zen auditioned for what could be the role of his career. You were so proud of him. between the RFA and his growing popularity as a model he had made real strides towards his dream. This audition would secure his first big movie role and facilitate his breakthrough into more movie roles in the future. You would not, could not miss this opportunity and so you sat to the side and watched him despite the occasional pain in your abdomen. You were sure it was nothing, pain was bound to happen later in your pregnancy you thought and these pains had been happening on and off for the last few days. You had an appointment with the doctor tomorrow after all so you could wait until then. halfway through Zen’s reading you felt a shift and a kick from the baby that made you wince, and place your hand on your belly. Zen was still on stage if you could wait just a little longer he could drive you to the doctor to make sure everything was okay, just a little longer. The next pain that shot through you had you standing to rush to the bathroom. You were sure you were going to be sick. You crouched next to the toilet emptying the contents of your stomach into it as another wave of pain wracked your form. As the pain ebbed you turned to sit more comfortably, you caught your breath and heard the door open.
“mrs. Ryu?” called the casting director. Your heart stopped and you scrambled to your feet despite another wave of pain.
“yes yes. I’m so sorry. What did you think? He’s incredible right?” you know your voice is trembling. You can hear how forced you sound, you can feel how stiffly you’re holding yourself, fingers digging into your arm with every new wave of pain and nausea.
“mrs. Ryu? Are you okay?” she asked gently worry etched across her face. You shake your head, lips pressed tightly together and that’s when you feel your water break. “somebody call Zen!” the room was spinning and you felt yourself vomit again before Zen’s hands where on your shoulders. You tried to tell him about your water breaking but the words caught in your throat. “I think her water broke” you hear the casting director say in panic.
“what? Jagi I need you to breathe for me we’re going to get you to the hospital princess. You can do this, you’re so strong. Breath for me beautiful.”
“don’t feel good” you manage through clenched teeth.
“it’s okay precious I got you. you can lean on me angel” he said pulling you gently against his side as he helped you to your feet. His voice was soothing but you felt the world shift too suddenly and you lost your balance falling against him heavily. Thankfully he caught you easily. “good girl come on. lean on me let’s get you to the hospital I’ll take care of you jagiya”
The journey to the car was a difficult one and you leaned on Zen the entire way as he encouraged and praised you. one of the actors Zen knew offered to help you into the car as Zen rushed to the driver’s side to start the vehicle. The man’s hand left the small of your back for less than a second when the worst contraction yet hit and sent the world around reeling. Everything went black.
When you came to you could hear the faint beeping of a machine to your left and an infant crying to your right. “she’s awake.” Zen’s voice called and you struggled to open your eye’s against the bright florescent lights. “jagiya listen you passed out and hit your head.”
“my water broke.” You said dazedly trying to connect the dots of your hazy memory “the baby” you muttered. “my water broke. the baby was on the way. Where’s my baby!” the machines beeping sped up alarmingly driving your growing panic. You felt his hand on your arm and he smiled gently.
“she’s here their making sure she’s healthy right now. Look” he stepped aside and you could see the nurses checking over a small infant with a wild tuft of alabaster hair. “she’s an angel and her mother is a goddess. I can’t believe you’ve given me everything I could have ever wanted. How can you manage to be more gorgeous every day jagi?” you swatted his hand away from where he had tried to touch your cheek.
“I’m sweaty and gross and did they do a C section am I bloody?”
“no blood and you could never be gross jagi. Your perfect.”
“when can I hold her?” you ask the nurse ignoring the ridiculous words Zen was spewing.
“right now. Mrs. Ryu” the nurse said handing you the tiny newborn.
“you were right about her being an angel though, she has your hair.”
“and your cute nose” Zen chirped tapping her nose gently
“thank god she’s got your eyes though” you laughed.

Mc spoils the RFA + saeran with their perfect bath
guys i love baths. bath bombs, I got a job at bath and body works because i love their products and lush doesn't have a store near me. baths are beautiful wonderful indulgent moments of relaxation and should be treated as sacred and holy times. so here we have MC giving the RFA their perfect bath.
also my master list grows with every new post so be sure to keep an eye on it.
Jumin
- He has been so stressed its affecting his sleep
- So tonight your bound and determined to get him to relax
- He doesn’t usually take baths he’s a shower guy
- His bathtub is HUGE though (mostly because he knows you love baths)
- The water is so hot his skin is a little red but not so hot that hit hurts
- Hot water helps relax the muscles you point out
- you use a bath bomb that colors the water a deep purple with eco safe silver glitter
- it’s scented with cedar wood and lavender oil
- you even dimmed the lights and played cello music to create the optimal relaxation
- he starts soaking as you pour both of you some wine
- he asks you to join him saying that it would be “terribly boring” without you
- you chuckle and slip in with him leaning against his chest
- he tells you about a new cat business
- you tell him about teaching Elizabeth the 3rd to do the obstacle course you and he set up
- you mention that the water looks like the starry night sky and move to kiss him
- he smiles and catches your chin in his hand to deepen the kiss
- he thinks he will indulge in baths more often if you will be joining him like this
Yoosung
- he knows that girls like baths but he’s never really enjoyed them
- he gets antsy if he sits still too long and shows just seem easier
- so you decide to show him the light
- the bathtub at his place isn’t big but you can manage since there isn’t an easy solution
- the water is another problem it doesn’t get hot enough to be relaxing and certainly not hot enough to stay relaxing through the duration of the soak
- so you fill up what you can from the tap and add boiling water to bring the overall temp up
- you have to be really carful to not get it too hot
- you use a light blue bath bomb with gold glitter its shaped like a shooting start and has a tiny toy inside
- you do not tell him about the toy the toy is yours
- its smells like freesia and honey, fresh and lightly sweet
- you play the LOLOL equivalent of the LOZ great fairy fountain music
- he grabs your hand as you go to give him privacy and won’t meet your eyes when he asks you to join him
- you share a bottle of cold cherry flavored sparkling water
- he tells you about the upcoming LOLOL event and you laugh at his animated hand guesturse splashing around
- you give him a bubble beard and when you kiss him you pull away with half the bubbles on your own face
- as great as the bath itself was his favorite part is towel drying your hair because of how messy and super fluffy soft it becomes
Saeyoung
- broski neglects himself when work gets bad
- he can get nasty
- you draw him a bath with the hottest water possible
- you use a bright red bath bomb with black and gold glitter
- it smells exactly like fruit loops
- you also add several rubber duckies (one looks like him and one looks like you)
- you were not planning to join him really
- but he splashes you and I mean you where wet already so when in roam
- you too may or may not play act with the rubber ducky versions of you
- you pour Dr. pepper into those plastic fake champagne flutes and toast to honey buddah chips
- you have to ban honey buddah chips from the bath
- you share memes on each other’s phones
- and play soft 8-bit music as background noise
- you wash his hair and hum a lullaby
- he tries not to get sentimental about a childhood he never had
- but you can tell he’s getting a bit sad so you squish his face and say “my name is Saeyoung and I deserve love” you have him repeat after you while his face is squished until his laughing again
- you wrap his hair in a towel hat then laugh when he forgets and his hair dries all crazy
- bath time becomes a really happy routine for you too
Zen
- he is familiar with baths they are good for your skin every once in a while
- he’s read all about the benefits, the pros and cons, what to add what to steer clear of
- he insists warm not hot water “zen hot water feels the best” “it can irritate our skin jagi!”
- you concede because he’s basically a human furnace anyway
- you choose a dye and glitter free bath bomb
- but it does have seaweed extract, coconut oil, and Epsom salt
- it smells like rose, lemongrass, and mahogany
- he puts his hair in a bun to wash separately (what’s good for skin isn’t always good for hair)
- you both do face masks during the soak and there’s something you really enjoy about seeing him in a face mask
- it’s one of the few times he looks genuinely silly
- you talk about the new part he just got and he admits he’s nervous
- “it’s a romance Jagi what if I can’t act it properly because I’m too busy thinking about you?”
- he either drinks bear or lemon cucumber water depending on if he has an audition tomorrow
- if he drinks beer he shares the can with you since he’s trying to cut back for you
- if it’s the lemon cucumber water absolutely runs the bottom of the ice cold glass against your neck to see you shiver and shudder
- but then you wiggle against him and he’s starting to have a hard time controlling the beast
Jaehee
- this girl needs a tropical vacation bad
- but since you don’t have the money or time you decide a staycation will do
- bath water is hot enough to steam but you give it time to cool a bit before she gets in
- you use and orange, yellow bath bomb with gold glitter that looks like the sunrise
- it smells like guava and mandarin to give it a tropical feel
- you play ocean sounds and quiet ukulele music
- you make chamomile and lemongrass ice tea sweetened with honey
- she chats idly about all the benefits of such a drink and debates whether to add it to the café menu or not
- you can’t help but chuckle at her workaholic nature as you turn to kiss the tip of her nose
- you even move a laptop with its webcam covered because everything with the RFA hacker has made y’all hyper aware of the vulnerability of technology
- to the bathroom counter so you can watch Zen DVD’s while you relax
- afterwards you paint her nails and discuss new cakes for the café
- she’ll admit it’s no trip to Hawaii but it was very relaxing
Saeran
- boy refuses to admit he needs some serious TLC
- but you coax him in if you say you want to share a bath with him
- you bring fresh flowers into the bathroom and make sure everything is perfect
- you use a deep red bath bomb with black glitter
- its shaped like a skull and he enjoys watching it fizz and bubble before you two get in
- it smells like a bouquet of gardenias, roses, and lilies
- you play nature sounds with gentle harp music
- you make sweet hibiscus tea to share with him
- he tells you about his latest therapy appointment and you ask him idle questions
- “did you end up planting all the tulips?”
- “maybe we should build a bird house! Or install a flower box on the window sill!”
- “are you gonna dye your hair again? Or let it grow naturally?”
- A lot of your conversations used to be one sided since he was so unused to make his own decisions
- So conversations where you gently guide him to find his own ideas are helpful
- Especially in safe and relaxing environment like this.
- “I think I’d like to keep it bleached until it grows out” he says cautiously
- “I think when it grows out on its own it’ll feel like the last of mint eye being washed away, and I hope I’ll be better by then. I hope you’ll stay with me until then.”
- “always and forever” you assure him kissing his cheek and giggling at his light blush
