100-word drabbles (collected)

[meiface.livejournal.com]

Collection of 100-word drabbles from the request last month, here (now closed). 19 drabbles + bonus! :"> I hear SJ has a 3rd album out this month (in 10 days)? This could be exciting. I also hear that they'll be in suits for the MV? This is exciting. It could interest me in fandom again!

(Though, to be honest, I'm way more interested in SJM's second album in the summer. And SHINee's comeback because alksdj performances, aww. And Epik High's new album - come out already, damn you.)

Almost spring break. Maybe I'll be able to write again!

"a study in failure", super junior, kihae
why bringing Donghae to the library when you need to study is a bad idea

The pen goes tap tap tap. Pause. Tap.

Kibum sighs in exasperation, looking up from his book. "Donghae."

Across the table, Donghae gives him a guilty look and stills. "Sorry," he whispers loudly, "but I can't help it. I'm bored." His voice trails off into a whine.

"I have to study, Donghae. Don't you have anything to do?"

Donghae rolls his eyes. "The only thing I have in mind wouldn’t let you get much studying done." He licks his lips meaningfully and Kibum flushes and ducks his head, silenced. Donghae grins and slouches in his chair, returning to his pen.

The first time Kyuhyun sees Zhou Mi, he says, "No fucking way." How was this so-called hero supposed to defeat him, Cho Kyuhyun, evil genius? His cape shimmered pink in the fucking sunlight.

The next time, Zhou Mi rescues a bus of schoolchildren, gently flying them back onto solid ground.

"Why would you do that?" he pouts, and Kyuhyun swears he has tears in his eyes.

It isn't until Kyuhyun inadvertently foils one of his own plans (he blames Heechul entirely) that he witnesses Zhou Mi's million-watt smile. And says, "Shit," because he recognizes his downfall when he sees it.

Kibum

"Huh," says Sungmin. "Kibum told me you'd be gone all day."

"I- You-" Kangin sputters. He can't seem to look Sungmin in the eye.

"But I guess Kibum wouldn't really know, since he's hardly around as it is." Sungmin's tone is conversational as he extracts his hand from between his legs and wipes discreetly on the sheets.

Kangin clutches the doorframe and sputters some more, mouth opening and closing as though he wants to say something but stops. Finally, he blusters out a loud, "I CAN’T BELIEVE-" He stops again. "That's my bed."

Sungmin smiles brightly at him. "I know."

"what you meant to say", super junior, shihanchul
where hangeng can sudenly read minds

Telepathy is not as fun it seems. When Hankyung begins hearing voices, he thinks he's going crazy. When he realizes he's actually hearing his bandmates’ thoughts, everyone else thinks he's going crazy. He has to take two months off to learn how to tune people out and how to say no to Heechul, who thinks this is the coolest thing ever and wants to exploit it. Blackmail is his plan, Siwon tells Hankyung in horrified tones. I don't care, says Hankyung, miserable.

"We'll help you, hyung," Siwon says soothingly.

"Use you," Heechul exclaims.

What Hankyung hears, though, is: Love you.

every man wants to be dominated

"Every man," Heechul announces seriously, "wants to be dominated."

The room stares at him in varying degrees of confusion. Eunhyuk looks lost. Sungmin looks skeptical. Kangin just laughs outright. "Are you trying to justify the way you boss Hankyung and Siwon around like they’re your bitches?"

Heechul tosses his head. "It's not my fault they're whipped. They can't help their need to submit to my greater presence." He smirks and Kangin rolls his eyes.

"We just let him think that," Hankyung tells Sungmin over the phone that night. "It's so much easier to let him think he's getting his way."

"history in the making", snsd, sunny & taeyeon
something girly about shopping together before debut and taengoo all insecure about being leadershii

Five bags in one hand and Sunny's hand in the other and Taeyeon finally feels calm enough to breathe again. She tilts her head back towards the sky, feels her hair tumbling down her back - wonders if she'll remember this moment in the future. Wonders what will be different. Wonders if she'll be a good leader.

"Taengoo," Sunny says sincerely, "you're going to be a great." She's upbeat, golden like the sunshine in her stage name. "Have faith in yourself."

She beams and squeezes Taeyeon's hand, reassuringly. Taeyeon thinks that maybe the future won't be so terrifying after all.

Tuesday, Touya Akira was in a foul mood. He snapped at the boy he was tutoring in go, was rude to the receptionist, and was generally unpleasant to anyone he came across. Everyone was surprised, because Touya Akira was one of the most well-mannered people anyone had ever met, always soft-spoken and mindful of his elders.

"What on earth's gotten into him?" Isumi wondered. Waya shrugged, at a loss.

Hikaru was sent on a mission to discover the cause.

He returned to report, between his laughter, that Akira hadn't been able to open his child-safe bottle of vitamins that morning.

"Are you sure it's just fanservice?" Waya asked doubtfully, leaning his back against Isumi's and strumming his bass.

Isumi flicked a glance over at where a spotlight circled Hikaru at the drumset, grinning up at Akira, who stood next to him with a microphone in hand and his head bent with familiar intent.

"Are lead singers supposed to make out with drummers?" Waya wanted to know. "I thought they were supposed to make out with guitarists."

"No thanks," said Isumi with a laugh and Waya made a face. "Whatever works for them," he said with a shrug. "Whatever it takes."

thrill of romance

It takes only three months into Echizen's first year at Seigaku High before Tezuka realizes the significance behind Fuji skipping his daily photography club on Wednesdays, perfecting his billiards game, and studying English more diligently.

"Is this some strange form of courtship?" he asks with some reserve, crossing his arms as Fuji laughs.

"You wouldn't understand what it's like falling in love," Fuji replies lightly, smiling. He pats Tezuka on the arm and Tezuka can feel his attention fall away like a mantle when Echizen walks off the courts, sweaty and panting, and Fuji turns to him, blue eyes alight.

Jiyong was the coffee-drinker of the five of them, always bright-eyed and energetic, even at five in the morning. His thoughts whirled full-speed, creativity bursting at the seams, straining to spill onto staved paper or keyboard. Jiyong slept, but not enough, running on adrenaline and pure grit.

Seunghyun was not much of a coffee-drinker. While he wasn't health-conscious like Youngbae, he took better care of what went in his body. But every morning found him brewing coffee in the kitchen, handing a steaming mug to Jiyong as he stumbled in, with a smile on his face as their fingers brushed.

it's cold in the castle

It's cold in the castle. Arthur dismisses his servants early and sees himself to bed. His movements are stiff, unhappy, matching the drawn expression on his face. The fire flickers red and gold from the hearth, while Arthur lies on his bed and thinks about what duty means, what honor means. What friendship means.

It's colder in the dungeons. Arthur finds Merlin awake, too cold to sleep. He's shivering and pale, but his eyes are wide and luminous in the dark. Arthur is angry, hurt, but still he wraps his hand firmly around Merlin's and says, "Come." And Merlin goes.

bite marks

Donghae slides his lips against Sungmin's ear and grins as Sungmin shivers, involuntarily. He loves this game, because he lives to tease, to flirt, always dancing away before anything serious. It's part of his playful nature, never serious.

Sungmin's eyes are dark, though, because he doesn't like Donghae's rules. He'll break them all in the shadowed corners behind the stage, pinning Donghae, eyes wide and startled, against the wall and marking him with purposeful bites. He grips Donghae's hips hard.

"I don't play like that," Sungmin breathes as he drags his teeth slowly up Donghae's neck. He intends to commit.

fluff + puppy

They have a day off and their manager has allowed them out, so long as they do so in small groups less likely to attract attention. Zhou Mi immediately latches onto Kyuhyun and announces, "We're going to the park!"

"Why the park?" Kyuhyun asks later, squinting into the bright sunlight.

"No reason," Zhou Mi chirps in return, grinning. "It's just a nice day."

They get popsicles, and play with someone else's puppy, and wander past elderly people practicing taichi under the willow tree. Kyuhyun concludes, with Zhou Mi's arm draped over his shoulder, that it is a pretty nice day.

post-high school

"I don't understand why I have to dress up in an animal costume!" Hasukawa protested loudly. "I'm a working salaryman now. I have to have some dignity."

"Now, now, don't forget who helped you pass all those exams in school." Ten years out of school and Mitsuru's smile was the same, devilish and golden. He laughed and hung up before Hasukawa could protest further, and sank into the couch with a smug expression.

"Haven't you grown out of this?" Shinobu asked with quiet amusement from the desk, bent over papers, tie loosened.

"Never. And that's what you love about me."

where Kibum is territorial and Donghae is oblivious

Donghae and Jessica giggle together as she feathers her fingers over his wig, brushing away wisps from his face. They're all soft whispers and little jokes that Kibum can't hear, wrapped in a bubble that he can't penetrate.

He's angry at Sungmin for perpetuating this ("Donghae," he said fervently, "you should crossdress!"), angry at Jessica for fawning over a dolled-up Donghae, applying his make-up as if they were best friends.

They were once more, and that makes Kibum blind with jealousy. So who can blame him for spinning Donghae into the wall later and kissing the living daylights of him?

"Stop touching your breasts, Donghae," Kibum said wearily, not glancing up.

Donghae looked up guiltily. "But they're--" He flashed a sheepish look. "Jiggly!" He shimmied slightly to demonstrate and Kibum sighed heavily and set down the newspaper.

"I'm glad you're getting accustomed to being a girl, but this is going a little far, don't you think?" Despite Kibum's exasperated tone, Donghae could still detect fond amusement, and that gave him hope.

"Hey, hey, Kibummie," he said, pushing Kibum back in his chair so Donghae could straddle his lap. He grinned, all wicked intent. "Ever done it with a girl?"

"bright lines", super junior, shihae
marking your territory

Usually, Donghae was good-natured and easygoing, endearing - everyone liked him. He had his moments, though, just like anyone else. Sometimes, as much as he loved the fans, he got frustrated. "There's a fucking line," he shouted, his Mokpo accent coming out as his language deteriorated. "They need to respect it, goddammit. Who the hell told them they could touch anywhere they fucking want?"

Siwon could only pull him into the nearest bedroom and try to calm him down ("They didn't really grope me...much..."), and Donghae settled the matter with fierce kisses, crowding his body against Siwon's. "Mine," he growled.

SJ-M just got back from china

Two days passed after SJ-M returned from China before Sungmin made his move. He'd smiled serenely for those two days, watching Zhou Mi and Kyuhyun whisper to each other, giggling. He’d even managed to stay nonchalant when Heechul caught the two kissing in the van the night before and teased them relentlessly.

Tonight, Sungmin finally made his move. He snagged Zhou Mi's wrist as he passed him on the way to his room.

Zhou Mi gasped as Sungmin kissed him and backed him into the room Sungmin shared with Kyuhyun, who was on the bed, bright-eyed and flushed with arousal.

hannie's very attractive face and someone saying "I'd tap that"

"I can't believe Siwon said that," Shindong said, dissolving into laughter against Eunhyuk.

"Ahh, what has China done to our Siwonnie?" Eeteuk sighed.

"Donghae says Hankyung's a great leader, too," Sungmin added. He giggled at the screen as Hankyung made a face. "That's hot. I'd tap it."

"What a bitch," moaned Heechul. "All this sparkling personality was meant for me alone, and now they've broadcasting it on national television." He smirked. "But good call on my part getting them to record their shows and send them to us, am I right?"

"You're always right, hyung," Kangin said tongue-in-cheek.

Heechul preened.

"make me a supermodel", super junior, qmi
rival models

"BOBO Magazine wants him to be their August cover?" Kyuhyun growled. "That makes it third time in the past two years." It didn’t matter that he’d been featured three times as well. He and Zhou Mi were the top male models in Korea and the competition at the top was fierce even if Zhou Mi was always smiles and cheer, greeting Kyuhyun as if their common career made them friends.

Never going to happen, Kyuhyun thought sourly, because he was going to be number one no matter the cost, or how sexy Zhou Mi looked in his recent black-and-white photoshoot.
