laughter spills from her lips . the honorific is one she was used to considering that she had two younger sisters of her own . " trust me , you don't even wanna see me do a two step— i'd end up knocking something over . " she gives paige a gentle squeeze before pulling back to get a better look at the blonde . " oh come on , it sounds amazing ! the sophomore albums are always the one people talk about the most , and this one has people talking . " she can't help showering the younger in praise— her time in the korean music industry prepared her for moments like this . " i loved this new sound , seriously . are you going on tour ? "
"unnie!" and look, it's another girl paige will use the honorific on, but god forbid she uses it with her literal sister ( and to be fair, paige is sure they'd both burst into flames if she ever uttered those words ). wraps her arms around @inblums, pulling back with a proud little smile and jump in her body ! "thank you! that means the world to me. but you know i would never judge you for your dancing skills." it's not like the femme is supposed to be a backup dancer or anything. she throws back the shot too, already a few drinks in, and feeling it go down pretty smooth. "i was worried people wouldn't like the sound - that it's not, like, poppy enough, y'know?"

nayoung laughs softly . " i start getting a bunch of asmr videos . " she speaks in reference to the addicting app . " sometimes those will put me right to sleep too . " she makes work of collecting small items around her place to shove into her purse before slipping on her sneakers and slinging her bag across her chest . " yeah , let's go ! i can't wait to do this— do you think we can get a facial while we're there ? this sudden shift in the weather has my pores begging for mercy . "
" at this point , i either go to sleep early from watching tiktok videos or sleeping late because of the same reason too . it's amusing what you see on your feed at ungodly hours , but also very spooky . " the videos would vary from food to paranormal to spa treatments that are always on the top of piper's to-do list . glad she isn't all alone in this , that nayoung is on the same wavelength as her . " i'm all ready ! are you ? " @inblums

dating is complicated— it tired her out and exhausted her in ways she didn't think possible . perhaps it had to do with her personal life often being the topic of discussion . she sips down the rest of her drink to prevent it from becoming watered down , but also in an attempt to collect herself . she laughs softly . " a divorce party ? i would have loved one of those— " her head shakes for a moment . " what , you've been to one ? could i expect a bachelorette party on steroids out of this ? "
“ i know a bit about that, yeah. ” sure, he has experience with being in a relationship with someone ‘perfect’ and navigating expectations, but stifled isn’t exactly the word he’d use for it. it’s something that would probably affect him more now than it did back then. “ don’t think it’s shallow, just sounds like you weren’t into him anymore. which, fair enough. shit happens. but you missed out on one big opportunity. a divorce party, they’re fucking fun. ”

" oh , please . i can barely go to bed without checking up on all of the tiktoks i've missed before bed— at this point it's codependency . " laughter spills from petals as gaze filters over toward friend . it's a miracle she even had time to do this with piper , but she wasn't going to pass up on the opportunity to relax . " oh wait , hang on ! i gotta grab my shoes ! " takes phone to call for an uber while picking shoes from the rack , slipping on off - white sneakers as phone vibrates in hand . " come on , mark in a tesla will be here in five . "
" yup ! totally that one . i think it's obvious how often i am on tiktok , huh ? " piper glances down on her phone with the schedule emailed over to her . luckily , the place she reserved her appointment with doesn't always get fullybooked , therefore she can drag a plus one last minute . " oh definitely expect me to get knocked out the second their fingers massage my scalp . get your things so we can get going ! "

soft exhale leaves petals . time spent with joey had not been negative nor sour , but one small decision seemingly put a rift between them . heart beat is rough against chest as time seems to slow , faces and bodies surrounding them becoming a blur of movement that she can't bring herself to focus on . " oh , how's it been going ? with the band ... i mean . " remembers days of spending time backstage or within the crowd , cheering on band like that of a proud girlfriend , which she had been for a period of time . swallows , words nearly trapped in her throat as gaze flickers down to outstretched hand— what was the worst that could happen ? " this party stopped being fun over an hour ago . " there is an attempt at sounding more ethusiastic than she feels , setting watered down drink on nearby table before taking outstretched hand . " let's go . "
joey , despite his tough exterior , is a sensitive guy . beneath the inked sleeves , the punk rock songs , and all that brooding — you wouldn’t guess he’d be stirred by the sight of a former girlfriend , or that her soft voice would rekindle long - buried memories . with a determined swallow , he places his cocktail gingerly on a nearby table , drawing closer . “ yeah , it really has . ” he responds , voice gentle , bearing the weight of time and choices . “ i’ve been … alright , i guess . busy with the band , you know how it is … ” gaze momentarily drifts towards the dance floor before returning to nayoung’s eyes . “ honestly , i’m not having the best time here . you wanna get out of here , find a quieter place to catch up ? ” the offer lingers in the air , just like his outstretched hand , silently urging her to grasp it — presenting an opportunity to bridge the gap of years and mistakes that have kept them apart .

grin spreads on features and accepts mystery drink . " i'll take the shot over dancing— i have two left feet and we're celebrating you ! " femme throws back shot , shaking head at sharpness of drink . " your album is so good, paige . congrats on the release ! "
location: paige's album release party @ daphne

who: @nepofmstarters
blonde bounces towards your muse, two pink mystery shots in hand, and a shark smile 'pon painted lips. "you either have to dance with me, or take a shot. your choice, but it was in the invitation, so." she's straight up lying, neither was in the invitation.

it had been years since the two were able to catch up , and femme was beyond ecstatic to finally see him after years of missed opportunities . soft laughter spills from brims at the sight of paparazzi when peeking over large menus , promptly putting up a pair of bunny ears behind her head before letting out a laugh . " you know they're just bored , hannie . you and i being spotted together is enough to make the world implode— do you think we'll end up being talked about on dispatch ? " head tilts while bringing warm cappuccino to lips in poor effort to hide faint smile . thinks over question for short moment before shoulders shrug slightly . " how about we make a break for it ? we could leave out the back door and get in a car ? i'm sure my driver could meet us in the next ten . "
✦ open starter , @nepofmstarters .
✦ location , restaurant / cafe .
ah , shit . yohan felt horrible— he invited [ your muse ] to brunch to catch up , but he didn't think the paparrazi would be hiding in the bushes across the street from them ; that might be just wishful thinking . ‘ i'm so sorry , i should've picked a different restaurant . ’ the menu was big enough to hide their faces , so they weren't really getting anything & they already took a bunch with his middle finger up , wasn't that enough ? he was feeling adventurous— wanting to make their uninvited presence regret they even tried , but yohan didn't want [ your muse ] to get in trouble . ‘ any idea on how to get away from them ? we can move inside too until they're gone & find someone else to bother . . . or we end up in tmz tomorrow & laugh about it . ’

" you mean that asmr hair thing on tiktok ? " femme lifts frame from couch , abandoning phone from grasp to peer over at friend . " i've been dying to try that ! it looks so comforting and relaxing— i usually fall asleep during my hair appointments , but this might knock me out immediately . " soft chortle escapes glossed brims . " ah , i love this idea . we could go to gotham west market ? "
★ ੭ ˚ ⌕ 𝗈𝗉𝖾𝗇 𝗌𝗍𝖺𝗋𝗍𝖾𝗋 𝅄 ⸺ @nepofmstarters.
" i usually do my self-care weekend all alone . but if you have nothing else to do today , maybe you can join me ? let's try out that hair spa thingy . it looks really good and relaxing . then we can both try out foods we haven't tried before for lunch ? "

takes in deep breath . " it was ... i don't know . " shoulders shrug slightly . femme had never been asked why , and never really thought about an answer , either . " i felt stifled . you know how everyone around you says something is perfect ? the perfect relationship with the perfect man ? it all became too much . maybe it sounds shallow of me , but saying no to the proposal made more sense than going through with an engagement and marrying someone because it's expected . "
everything is true, not everything is true. ah, so she’s indecisive. the story is starting to make more sense. except: “ less than six hours is still a pretty long fuckin’ time. ” six hours to change her mind, six hours to realise she’d made a mistake. how humiliating, for him, for her to be that fucking sure. it’s why you always had to be the one to leave first. “ why did you say no? ”

LIM NAYOUNG'S WARDROBE !
when lim nayoung opens her closet , there's a few things you can expect . her accessories are bright and fun , often accenting her outfits with designer hair clips and van cleef jewelry on her wrists . her everyday fashion , on the other hand , is kept relatively neutral with her preferred colors being black , khaki , or cream . however , she doesn't shy away from bold designer logos , like that of recent deisel pieces or vetements jeans . when lounging at home , the stylist still keeps her outfits coordinated and neutral , opting for matching sets or even the perfect oversized tee . @nepofminspo !

exhales softly as she realizes she talks too damn much , dropping weight back against chair before bringing glass to glossed petals . " everything that came out in the tabloids is true ... mostly . not everything in the tabloids is true . " there is truth to some of it , and femme was in fact proposed to at a lavish party that ultimately ended the moment the word no dared to leave petals . " i left— we weren't... we weren't even living together anyway so leaving wasn't too hard . it takes less than six hours to pack up some stuff in a closet and a few drawers . "
head cocks to the side, feigning ignorance. “ not sure i've heard about it-- " everyone has heard about it. " --care to explain? ” why not use this opportunity to hear it from the horse's mouth? his barber, who spends too much time on twitter, repeating 'as she should' whilst telling the story of the rejected million-dollar proposal would kill to be here right now. " so, what, you kick them out straight after? or are you the one that leaves? i've heard that's rude and can hurt people's feelings, " he says insincerely.

femme hums quietly . " no need to be perfect , i just need your opinion , which would help me out a ton . " delicate smile spreads on doll - like features , motioning for other to follow her into living room while still listening . " to be fair , i definitely would have bothered my mom , but seeing as though it's nine in the morning in korea , she'd get pissed i'm interrupting her morning routine . " femme knows she can call elegant mother at any time , but chooses not to bother . picks up options from couch when asked , holding both up to frame . " i have this pink option from galvan , and this one from saint laurent— i don't know , are they too safe ? "
"fair warning -" juliette disclaims, hand in the air as she steps in, hit with a blast of air conditioning, enough to the point she's sure she could make it into a hair commercial. not that that's ever been her style. "just because i answered first, doesn't necessarily mean i'm any good with fashion. i actually usually just send pics to my mom." because her mom will simply always be her fashion icon, and even as an adult, she's always quite happy with what clothing pieces she does recieve from her mother. juliette will simply deem it fashion wisdom. "what're your options?"

" i've got no interest in them , thank you very much . i'm not dating anymore— i have no desire to after that fiasco earlier this year . " images of proposal flashes in memory , causing shiver to run down spine and reminding her of what only followed immediately after . " no thanks . i think i'm more content with being able to starfish in the middle of my bed because i don't have to share it with anyone . "
“ nah, i don’t believe it, ” robbie scoffs, amused at the little too theatric reaction. truthfully, he didn’t care but the hand gestures alone entice him into pushing some buttons — his natural gift. “ you definitely would. it’s written all over you — gotta get one more in before the year’s over, don’t ya, heartbreaker? ”

party is in full swing , an event femme had to be coaxed into attending . manicured hand is wrapped delicately around stem of glass , taking cautious sips as a means to not appear as the party pooper she wants to be and engages in unstimulating conversation when prompted . gaze floats around the room , desperate to find a way out but instead catches sight of former flame— joey . stomach tightens and hands grow clammy as sudden rush of emotion consumes her and her heart patters in ribcage as distance between them fades . " hi , " voice is soft , almost unheard over bass of the music . " it's been a long time ... h-how have you been ? "
# 𝖫𝖮𝖢𝖠𝖳𝖨𝖮𝖭 … some party
# 𝖳𝖨𝖬𝖤𝖲𝖳𝖠𝖬𝖯 … time is a concept !
# 𝖳𝖠𝖦𝖦𝖨𝖭𝖦 … @inblums
joey , not one to be particularly talkative at gatherings , stands tucked away in the corner of a lively after - party . he nurses a cocktail while feigning interest in his phone to ward off any potential small talk . across the room , he spots nayoung , still drawing him in like a magnet , as always . despite the years that have passed , he still can’t resist sneaking glances in her direction , wondering how she’s doing . and their eyes meet for a moment , prompting joey to muster up the courage for an approach . with a subtle throat clearing and a timid smile , he takes the first step . “ hey , it’s been a while . ” he mumbles , each syllable bearing an unspoken burden , a weight that hangs heavily in the air .

" black is a safe choice and it always will be . " femme flicks through selections , head tilting in curiosity at who selected such options . " whoever chose these must work for someone old full time . " insult slips from lips in mother tongue , brows knitting together before hand lands on cult gaia option . " this one is fun and flirty , plus the feathers do most of the talking , so accessories can be kept minimal . for shoes you can go black or silver , but keep it simple . " femme motions for other woman to face mirror , holding up dress to frame . " what do you think ? "
"you really think so? they always love to dress me in black," she guesses it may just be the vibe of her music, though, that gets them there - melancholy tones equals dark colors to plenty of designers who only bother to listen to one song before they pull a dress for her. "oh, a pink would be fun. i never wear pink, let me see," she pulls out three other dresses - all of similar length and style, all wildly different shades of pink, "uh, i didn't realize there was going to be so many options."

femme glances down at map presented , brows knitting together in slight confusion . " is this a geography lesson ? what exactly is supposed to be going on here ? " eyes scan over colorful graphic with hand settled on hip .
"oh, it's nothing invasive!" pandora was quick to clarify, should she have made that distinction? she'd remember to do so for the next time she went out on the streets. "i brought this map," she pointed to it, "i'll give you a country and you have to point to it."
