Fourth up: Hehetmon for Yeosang (shout out to him for giving his little guy an easily embroidered face)

A tiny temari being held up in OP’s fingers in front of a computer screen displaying a photo of Yeosang at a recent concert holding up a sign with a Hehetmon drawing and the word “Louder!” The temari is made to look like Hehetmon’s face, with a small red and yellow flower stitched on top of the head, two squinched up eyes, a smiling mouth, and pink double lines to indicate blushing cheeks.

I have 3 more hours before I have to go be social with people who don't care about kpop boys, get a few last requests in now!

On this note, give me a ship (Minkey, Jongyu, any ATZ, XLOV if you're @pigeon-grip.bsky.social) and a keyword and we'll see if I can spin it into anything similarly tiny

Jongsang, gummy bears for @rrnchg.bsky.social

A jumbo-sized plastic jar of gummy bears had been included in their green room snacks this time. Possibly because it was getting close to Jongho’s birthday, but if there had been a note with them at the beginning, it was long gone now and he hadn’t seen it. It didn’t matter; intended or not, he’s getting a gift from it now: watching Yeosang line them all up on the table.

Yeosang had been early in the hair and makeup schedule for the day, so he’s porcelain perfect, hair in waves that mean he can’t lie down anywhere to sneak a nap, biting his tongue just a little as he arranges his gummy bear grid with serious concentration. In the background, Mingi starts singing at the top of his lungs. Yeosang doesn’t even blink.

Jongho shifts closer, not wanting to raise his voice unnecessarily. “Is there a pattern?”

“There needs to be a good distribution of colors.”

Jongho nods, looking at the arrangement with a newly critical eye. It does look like Yeosang has been keeping any one color from clumping up.

“What are they doing?”

Yeosang pulls another gummy bear out of the jar. A red one this time. He sets it in front of all the other bears, facing them. “Listening to you sing.”

One of my friends, a professional musician, used to dogsit for us sometimes, and she informed us Willow loves Disney songs and we need to sing for him more, so now I think Roo is about to have some more classical pieces added to her entertainment repertoire

Jongyu, stage fright for @ajoyforever.bsky.social

Jinki was a seasoned performer. He’d been on stages in multiple countries. He’d sung arias in front of presidents. He was no stranger to performance anxiety or stage fright; he knew how to deal with this. He tried to surreptitiously wipe his palms on his trousers. Jonghyun noticed anyway, of course, and took his hand, lacing their fingers together here in the otherwise empty elevator.

“What are you so nervous about?”

“You’re introducing me to Roo.”

Jonghyun tilted his head back to study Jinki, probably looking for a sign this was a joke. He didn’t find one. “Hyung… she’s a dog.”

“And she’s very important to you. What if she doesn’t like me? You shouldn’t date anyone your dog doesn’t like.”

Jonghyun huffed out a disbelieving laugh and rested his head on Jinki’s shoulder. “She’ll love you. I’m not worried.”

XLOV two-parter, for @pigeon-grip.bsky.social (Haru/Hyun, sparkle) and @readyornot666.bsky.social (anything with Hyun)

It had been a while since Hyun had moved to Seoul, and at his sisters’ combined insistence, he’d finally ventured out to a club. “To be young and have fun!” supposedly, but he’d once again gravitated to a spot near the wall, trying to stay out of the way, feeling tall and awkward and out of place, as usual.

Just as he’d started trying to calculate how long he needed to stay to be able to convince his sisters he’d tried, someone stumbled into him. He caught them automatically, arms coming up around them to prevent further falling like he would with his nieces and nephews… but the lithely muscled body he was rather inappropriately cradling into his chest was nothing like a child’s. He dared a glance down (further down than he expected) and found a very pointy, rather beautiful face grinning up at him.

“Hi! You saved me!”

Haru blinked, all words forgotten.

“Ooooh, pretty,” the small man breathed, making no effort to remove himself from Hyun’s embrace. If anything, he seemed to be leaning in closer. He studied Hyun’s face for a few more seconds, then grabbed his wrist and whirled around. “You’re coming with me! Wumuti-chan will never forgive me if I leave you here.”

He towed Hyun determinedly over to the booths on the opposite side of the club, the crowd parting before him the way it never did for Hyun, despite their almost comical height difference. Was he being abducted by some sort of fox spirit? In the middle of a gay club? It was starting to seem possible.

The two people seated in the booth Hyun’s new friend stopped them in front of did nothing to change this impression. There was no shortage of people in this club wearing glitter, but these two seemed to glow. One of them languidly reached for their drink, and the rhinestones on their nails caught the light and sent sparkles dancing across Hyun’s vision. The other one, with rhinestones on their cheeks, rested their chin on the back of one elegant hand and asked, “Haru-ya, who have you brought us?”

“I don’t know, but he saved me and he’s so pretty and he was standing all alone, so we have to adopt him.” Haru (apparently) looked up at Hyun, still grinning. “What’s your name, honey?”

“Hyun,” he said, finally finding words again. “I’m Hyun.”

A collage of ATEEZ Jongho's recent looks. In the left side, a look from his Instagram - a sky blue varsity jacket, layered on top of a hoodie and navy track pants. In the top-right, a look from an older fansign event where Jongho is making heart hands while wearing a very fluffy white sweater and a cream colored fuzzy hat with bear ears. In the Bottom- right, another look from Jongho's instagram - he is in a mustard coloured puffer jacket, sitting with his legs pulled up into a crouch. Matching Jjongbears are in the same outfits decorate the collage. There are also line doodles of apples, teddy bears, music notes and his purple microphone that decorate the collage.

About to make some coffee to get my brain fully recharged and then I will start writing more of these, if people want to get in more requests. (Last night’s are threaded under the first one quoted above.)

Woogi, first day at work for @nelliedae.bsky.social (crossposted)

“Mingi-ssi, please show Wooyoung-ssi around for his first day.”

And with that, their boss left, leaving Mingi staring at his new charge, frozen as he tried to figure out what exactly he needed to do. He hadn’t even known they were filling a position in this department. What was Wooyoung even here to do?

Wooyoung smiled at him.

This did not help Mingi get his shit together. He swallowed, probably a little to obviously.

Wooyoung’s smile softened almost imperceptibly into something less polite, more natural. “Hey. I like your bracelets.”

Mingi reached over to spin one of the beaded ones, brain coming at least partially back online. “Thanks, I made them.”

Wooyoung’s eyes lit up in excitement, his smile became a grin, and Mingi’s brain crashed again.

This was going to be a long day, Mingi could tell. But maybe not a bad one.

Second up: Yunsan, locked for @themarmalade.myatproto.social

“San, please, your room and your bed is the biggest. Just for tonight.”

San leaned against the door jamb, arms crossed, looking amused. “I didn’t say no. Just tell me what happened again. Slowly.”

Yunho sighed, backpack full of sweaty dance clothes dangling from his fingers forlornly. “Yeosang somehow reprogrammed the lock to our apartment on his way out. We have no idea how. We’re all locked out.” He widened his eyes in a way he knew San was weak to, playing it up to the max. “Please, can I stay with you tonight? We’ll get it fixed in the morning, I swear.”

San straightened up with a huff, holding his arm out to usher Yunho in. “You know the puppy eyes weren’t necessary. I wasn’t going to make you call maintenance at 2am.”

Yunho wrapped him in a grateful hug that also forced him several steps back into the room, away from potentially pushing Yunho back out into the living room to sleep on the couch. “Thank youuuuuu, you’re the best.”

San pushed him away half-heartedly. “You all just want me for my shower, I know.”

Yunho, already headed in that direction, looked back over his shoulder with a smirk. “Maybe not just your shower.”

San’s extra clean towel hit him in the face.

Desperately trying to remember how to write shorter, actually finishable things. Have tiny fic.

Minkey, claw machine

Minho had been telling himself all afternoon that they were not on a date, because that was the truth. Kibum called any kind of meet-up a “date,” with anyone. Minho knew that. They’d had a great day, and that was all that mattered. They got so little uninterrupted one-on-one time anymore, so he wasn’t going to waste it being maudlin.

Beside him, Kibum gasped and grabbed Minho’s arm. “Claw machine!”

Grinning, Minho slapped down his card to buy Kibum 10 chances. (He’d complain about Minho doubting his abilities if he bought more.)

Barely five minutes later, Kibum slapped a stuffed dog into his chest with a manic grin. “For you.”

Minho clutched at the dog before it could fall. It was softer than he expected for a claw machine prize.

This still wasn’t a date.

Me after teaching a 3-hour online class: Maybe I'll write this evening!

Actually in the doc: spent 20 minutes distracted by fixing some formatting

Signs point to no.
