_{{`running up to the other female, she wrapped her arms around their lower waist and hugging the other tightly.} Long time no see! AHH!}

_{-arms intuitively wrap around the other’s to return and complete the embrace and she gives the friend a slight squeeze, emitting a little squeak along- By iKON… -within the hug, she mumbles but as soon as she pulls away, she slinks into her usual poker face as if dismissing what she’d said- Yes! Truly… you’ve been busy, huh? What have you been up to? -she tucks strands of the younger’s hair over her ear-}

Woooow. I can’t believe I’m just standing here while you’re oh so easily picking me apart like I’m some sort of plastic Ken doll with detachable limbs- or something like that at least. Look at you exposing all of my hidden secrets and desires that I wasn’t even aware about to begin with like it’s nothing. Is this professional detective Jennie to the rescue ? That actually sounds cool for some reason. But I told you, though ! Why I wouldn’t take you with me to that place, remember ? I don’t really like to take any females with me no matter how much they want to go… It’ll be like I’m babysitting you since you’ll be automatically signing yourself up for many different things the moment you step foot below those stairs. It’s really some shady people in this world, Jennie… ( his playful tone simmers to a more steady and low one as it rides along the serious topic, the corners of his lips gradually descending into a faint frown that sets his discomfort on full display. ) I don’t want you getting all tangled up into stuff like that, mommy. It really isn’t fun. So maybe some day, instead of me taking you there, we could just schedule our own fight show. Me versus Hanbin while you watch, or whatever you want, yeah ? What do you want ?

_{-exaggerating a gasp, she presses her stretched out fingers against her chest- No, no, no! I’m just observant… I have to know my sun slash doder well. It’s what a mom does… make you aware of your strengths, weaknesses, complexities— It’s cool because… I’m the bearer of the nickname. -fists come resting on her hips as her chin raises with confidence which fades as soon as he starts to go on with his explaining that sounded a bit like lecturing, replacing her expression into a stubborn one- Fine, fineee. I get it! So much talking… Anyway, even though I still believe you’re underestimating me a bit I’m just gonna let it rest! I won’t go but no, not Hanbin. I’ll just fight you myself.}

Are you really into that whole watching me fight myself thing ? I wonder how that would work, really. It sounds interesting and not so surprisingly, I’m actually willing to try it out and see how it would result for the both of us. I’d probably end up looking like a complete dumbass, but as long as its just you I don’t mind doing it. ( though despite his previous words, he pauses here at the sudden thought that surfaces and narrows his eyes in a manner that would positively express his playful suspicion. ) Or– would you judge me for doing such a thing, mommy ? You know your son can be a little… weird sometimes, right ?

_{I am… I told you before. I wanted to see you fight… but you won’t let me. You won’t let me nurse you either. You won’t let me do anything! Now I get why you always ask if Hanbin permits me to do anything! You’re self projecting… ah, I’m figuring you out little by little. You know, you don’t really need to hide anything from me anymore… I’m a detective, of sorts. -she purses her lips, forefinger trailing the edge of it whilst avoiding his eyes for a moment to hide her guilt- Huh…? I never judge. Besides, I’ve seen you in those moments already. Weird? I think that’s a bit of an understatement.}

Celibate ? Me ? Who told you that, mommy ? Whoever it is deserves a HUGE can of whoop ass for lying to you, don’t you agree ?… Haha…

_{I think his name was Jiyoung. Familiar? Oh, that’s right. Same name. Looks like you, too! What are the odds? Would you take care of the job, then, while I watch? You know, I really wanna give peace a chance because there’s already so much violence in the world. I really don’t like it… but liars, they’re terrible. I agree, they do deserve a “huge can of whoop -she mimics a bleeping sound in place of saying ‘ass’-” and who else should give them that other than the greatest kickboxer I know.}

But you know sometimes the second is worse than the first? I think I should have watched the first first, since I didn’t finish though I guess it’s cool? We do have to finish Osomatsu, we’re not even close to finishing but it takes to much to even get through one. Right after Oso though I have another horror one we can watch? As long as you guys don’t leave my side during the process. It’s not so much horror as it is—— fighting. I can’t believe I made it through Shiki with you guys, truly my ride or die. Sh shhh not everyone remember the cotton candy bit I’m trying to keep it on the DL, only the worthy know. So that’s you and maybe three others? You are under oath Jennie Kim, as my sister not to release this info— or is it the opposite…..aigoo now you sound like Jisoo. Blacknut fawning over me? Pfft is that what that was? I’m unattainable. What do you mean you wonder what it’s like? You? Miss Charisma? Are you serious? I’m his questionable choice of children.

It’s the second time, I keep track of when I’m slighted Anna. Lenient? That’s only because he breezes through recordings like some kind of bull, though I don’t think I’d be as harsh as say…Jiyong-hyung. Besides I think you’d be an ace in the hole since you’re already top of my list of favorites soooooo leniency is in your favor. I can’t believe you had to consider if you’d pick me or Jiwon I’m actually hurt give me a moment to evaluate your spot. I don’t do lighthearted I go all out. What’s a—- m…..mo…..stop! You said zoinks before I said jinkies so!? Why is——- oh wait. Who am I then—- is YG Bowser because……Luigi is Bobby is Mario is Hanbin right? I’m Waluigi? Were waluigi oh damn the flashbacks. I’m cringing.

_{That’s true… I mean, it deters. The first one is great, the second is good, the third is when it starts to suck and just… heol! You should watch it then in your free time! Yeah, we have to even though one episode is a bit draining as it is. It’s sort of like an exercise anyway and you know what they say, your life’s extended the more you laugh. That’s less spa sessions for me, less crying for you! What horror is this? You know, regardless, I’m down. I won’t leave your side, ah! I’m sure even Jinhwan oppa won’t. When you believe it, it becomes so. We’ll get through this new one even though I don’t know what it is yet.} 

_{If I recall correctly, you said this on broadcast twice. Twice, oppa! Twice! Like the famous girl group of my friends right now— aiyaaaa, look who’s remembering his muse out of nowhere. Is it really me you miss or her? Sheeeeeeeeh. Caught you! Wasn’t he all over you? That was a whole series, it’s almost as if he’s claiming you and everyone has to back off. Eh? How am I miss charisma? Am I not scary instead? You’re the one who dubbed me Sunako! The little vampire girl. Oppa is a little bit too modest.}

_{Aigoo, my apologies then. Usually, I just compliment him a bit, call him the king of youth or something then he gives me the OK, but then I’m given all these… random nicknames that I have to live with for… weeks until he’s come up with new ones. I was kidding! You’re not harsh. I was just waiting for you to come in defense and say so… ah, I’m ratting myself out here. I pick you! I’d pick you any day, oppa. I swear! As long as… this list keeps me on the top. Okay, I get it. We’ll go all out, then? Would you go down the ship with me in case it sinks? I can’t drown by myself. I almost did last time… moist? Moist, moist. Moist! Moist, moist, moist, moist… moist— oops? I said it too much, I’m starting to cringe at myself now too. Zoinks! Why’d you counter it, then? This will be a cycle and you know it! Waluigi… you’re the number one. I’m the third like the youngest of us three.}

(’initially he doesn’t expect her to actually imitate the character, it wasn’t even a suggestion more of a jest, but here she goes immersing herself in the creepy-esque nature that is E.T and even doing the finger motion, he’s all but doubling over in laughter and surprise) I can’t believe you—— that was actually good you might give E.T a run for his money unfortunately we need you here on….Eee-yarth with us so no escaping for right now, nor later. Actually, (’a pause and a quick shake of his head) never mind the kidnapping just stay here we can’t have you leaving anytime soon. Not even because of debut or anything I’ll just end up missing my sis——–errr too much sap? What’s with the sappy moods lately? No line distribution issues sounds like a blessing. Everyone gets to sing too? Boys and girls? Jenderland is really that great and I get a VIP pass? Do others have to pay? I would think a place as amazing as that wouldn’t even charge a fee to get in. It’s just that I so happen to know the founder and ruler of such an establishment. I feel lucky. (’he really does, he’s not trying to be fake about it, even throws his arm around the younger’s shoulder and beams in her direction) How do you rule your subjects Jennie? What mid-life crisis are you even talking about? I haven’t even reached my first yet are you saying you reached yours? What are they doing to you in that poor dungeon!!!!! I can’t believe you and Taehyun would plan a prison break without me though what kind of——- do I need to start peeking in on these meetings I’m not invited to? I’ll let you do one, and we’ll see from there how’s that sound?

_{-she laughs over her own antics as well, chin raised in satisfaction with the other’s reaction- It’s all those acting classes. -she bursts out laughing even more when he mimics her pronunciation which she took inspiration from lilo and stitch- I will never leave my mother planet, unless given an opportunity to travel through space that is… but only for a brief period of time because… I might come back older? Older than my oppa…? Aigoo, that’d be freaky. Awh, omo, here it is. Here it comes, ahhh, how do I keep this momentum in you? I don’t know. You just miss me that much, don’t you? Don’t worry, oppa. The feeling is mutual. -eyebrows bounces while her curled fist taps on her chest lightly, where the heart rests-} 

_{Hmm, they pay with… claw machine stuffed toys, or Toy Story merchandise… or maybe Aristocats, Nemo, Rilakkuma? It’s negotiable, I can give plenty of options and if I’m in the mood, it might be free general admission for them too. I’ll have to see. But I can’t let them experience what we’ve been through, you know? Equal opportunities for everyone! -she squints at him playfully though after a second of observation whether his remarks were delivered sincerely, she leans in with an arm looping around his waist in a half hug that she only allowed with her closest friends-} 

_{You haven’t? Are you sure? Yah, you’re not that old to be this forgetful. I thought you had it once with Taehyun oppa, making you come out without the company’s permission because he ‘forgot his wallet’. No? No recognition at all? I see it’s the other way around. I thought four years would have been worse than your one. Well, I shared it to you for a reason! You’re in on it now. We have to discuss this together.}

Don’t you know you have to do a symbol every time you say that? Jennie. Jeenieeeeee! (’he goes on as if this is the most absurd thing she could ever do and it’s written all over his face, faux surprise and shock when the situation itself calls for none of the sort) You’ve gotta either thank Lil Wayne and promise not to copyright or stick your finger to the sky when you say phone home, come on now do you wanna be taken by the aliens before your debut? Then I’m going to have to go and rescue you and just…..work. Someone else does that……aigoo, aigooo. (’he should really stop with all the over exaggerations but they’re essential to his character and if he really needed to he might have already but he’s smiling and clutching his chest to begin the next bout of reactions, really he finds everything she says surprising and endearing charm, it’s his way of showing it) Jenderland? I get a free ticket to Jenderland? That’s a pretty big group though? Is line distribution gonna be a problem——- I’m kidding! I’m kidding! I’d love to go to Jenderland I just need to put a note in advance that I’ll be missing, the boys can’t wait to go they’ve been ready to go anywhere but the dungeon, we’ve had our fill. But saying it would look best if done by you means it doesn’t look the best which means it looks bad. Do you deny this? (’his hand thrusts out, though not with as much speed because he’s conscious of their distance and the possibility of startling her) I might be an advertiser, might, depends on your answer.

_{-hands rest on top of her chest as a soft gasp escapes her lips then she reaches her forefinger out to him while in a hushing tone that was borderline creepy, she says- E.T… phone… home. -she breaks the act and shifts back to her normal tone- How’s that? Satisfied? I won’t be taken away because… this is my home! Planet… Eee-yarth. Someone else does that? Not my big brother? -she sticks the tip of her tongue out in a teasing manner then she pauses, observing him in all his flamboyant, exaggerated gestures and reactions with a bit of a grimace that was out of jest- Yes, uhh… a VIP ticket at that! No line distribution issues. It’s kind of like… Produce 101 minus the F group. No one fails and every girl.. and boy gets to sing! Things are fair in Jenderland. Ah, permissions, of course or we’ll all get into trouble and then you’ll end up going through another mid-life crisis or cuss out of nowhere. I’ll get you and the oppas out of the dungeon. I did plan a prison break with Taehyun oppa. All that needs for it is to pull through. I deny it… it doesn’t look bad! It looks good, but done by me would be better! You see? Heol~ Is that a good enough answer? -here’s where she pulls a pout, eyebrows slanted with a slight bat of her eyelashes for in the wise words of her beloved Ham; pout and ye shall receive-}

Is it weird I opted to watch the second before the first? Didn’t even finish? Do I smell a movie night coming up one of these days? Man Jennie I told you we can’t throw that word around like that, people aren’t meant to know about the f-word and me okay. As far as the public is concerned there is no correlation. It’s a secret between us. Between flower siblings ad dandelion chingus. Honestly if we’re counting my jokes when’s the last time I made a truly suggestive—– actually I take that back because I fear you might actually read me a whole list. I should be more careful to show a more responsible image around my own sis. Wouldn’t want Jiyong-hyung accusing me of corrupting his favorite. Why would you even think of going to Jiwon when you’ve got a perfectly good me? This is the second time you chose him over me—— is it because he actually won show me the money is that it? Okay okay we can punk one last time before you go off to war, sound good? Well actually maybe that’s not a good idea—– like a what? A what shiba inu? A what? I’m afraid my hearing isn’t that good. You said zoinks!!!!!!!!! Princess Peacherine. I’m cringing inside. 

_{It is a bit weird… but I’ve done it. There’s no shame to it. Ahh, we still need to finish Osomatsu-san! I was looking forward to our animus nights after days of horror, we needed that goofy follow up. Why not? Eh, you call yourself cotton candy boy! Why can’t I call you fluffy? Good call… because I have receipts. There’s no escaping it. When it’s out, there’s record of it. It’s part of the life of a celebrity. Especially of someone who’s as famous as Song Minho? Aigoo… all the fangirls, fanboys… Blacknut is fawning over you like a paparazzi who won’t stop until the boy is theirs. It’s crazy being charismatic, isn’t it? I wonder what it’s like! Aren’t you Jiyong appa’s favorite, too? Maybe you can pass up with him.}

_{Wait—No!!! No way! No! Has it been the second time? I just feel like he’ll be lenient with me. You play around with me a lot, aigoo. Then again, I’m probably wrong if he’s given me so many weird nicknames over the years. Mmm, I’m back on your side. I just needed to evaluate my options… but you know, oppa, I’ll always come back to you! We’re family. No trophy or competition title required for this. No, let’s not. If we do, it has to be… really… really, really lighthearted. A… you know! Moist. Isn’t that you, too? I’m pretty sure it is. You said jinkies! Is this a role reversal? I was about to say you’re Mario but that’s Hanbin. You could be Luigi… oh— hold that thought, I forgot we’re both Waluigi. Yah, no cringing. You have to embrace this with me.}
