《[BTS: Love Yourself Series] MinYoongi x Save Me》Chapter 18: I Need U, GIRL
Advertisement
Lady luck seems to be shining extra bright in the year 2015. Compared to my luck for only getting the lower box seats for the MUSTER and Red Bullet Concert, this year's concert, I managed to get a standing ticket at R section.
Though it is located near the furthest end of the T stage, it gives a good view when the member comes.
The concert started off with with a hyped start, and carry on with the few titles track! The hall is burning with enthusiasm. When the setlist reaches to Tomorrow, I listened with a heavy heart. It's the song Yoongi wrote in the hospital when he had appendicitis. The day I last spoke to him.
Converse Highcaught everyone by surprise as it is a new song for the next album.
The bring the crowd to the next buildup. Everyone including the ARMYs seems to finally let off their grievances for the boys over the past 2 years since debut.
Encore stage starts with Boyz with Fun,another new song that brings the crowd back to the positive atmosphere. The final song for the encore is Born Singer, everyone got emotional listening to this song. In the last verse, ARMYs sing along with the boys because we can handle it as long we support each other.
After the last song is over, the boys walk to different sides of the stage to wave goodbye to the fans. Jimin, J-Hope, and Seokjin came to my side of the stage and wave goodbye. More fans push forward to have a glimpse of the boys before they leave. I decided to move to the back of the pit to avoid the crowd and maybe I might be able to see Yoongi a little clearer.
And there was a moment, I thought he saw me, that our glance met each other. But how could that be? It's probably just my imagination.
------
Pdogg, Slow Rabbit, Namjoon and Yoongi are inside the studio discussing the title track.
Yoongi is working on the keyboard and synthesizer to edit the second verse of the song. Slow Rabbit is working on the vocal arrangments.
🐨 Namjoon: How should we set the tone for the lyrics? To talk about the struggle of chasing dreams and hope as a youth?
Pdogg: This time, for the lyrics. To sound it more pop-ish, I am going for a more ambiguous tone for the lyrics. 'I' represent the youth, as the first-person perspective. 'You' represent the dream and reality at the same time. Thus, I Need You. But so far, the lyrics are not flowing smoothly.

너 필요해 neol-pilryeo-hae ( I need you)
Why am I in love alone, why am I hurting alone
너 필요해 neol-pilryeo-hae ( I need you)
Why do I keep needing you when I know I'll get hurt?
🐨 Namjoon: We could change '너 필요해' to English. That will be 'I need you', we need to add a syllabus in to make it flow.
🐱Yoongi: 여자 (girl), girl. . How?
🐨 Namjoon: That's a good word to use! Yoongi Hyung is indeed a genius! This would make the song sound like a breakup song too. This would fit the general public's taste.
------
It's a delightful season of spring. Though Eonju-ro doesn't have any cherry blossom tree on the streets, the crisp of fresh air is enough to perk anyone up. Just probably not for Seol-tang. Jihye just came to fetch Seol-tang home after his spaying surgery. Seol-tang is still really drowsy and just stays quietly in the pet carrier.
The beautiful weather seems to make everyone's mood brighter. Jihye makes an extra effort to drop by the neighborhood stores and say 'hi', smiling to the passing-by stranger, paying extra attention to the small little beautiful flowers and trees ... and out of the colorful background stood a guy with an all-black attire standing in front of her officetel building.
She walked a little closer to have a better look. Then she looked around the surrounding, to make sure no one else is watching. She grabs the guy's arm and walked into the building!
------
Yoongi looked up at the building and stares into space. Despite Yoongi told himself not to come here again, but he couldn't resist. Especially after that concert night, when he saw Jihye again.
He was too deep in his thought that he did not realize somebody is walking to him.
🦉Jihye: Min Yoongi, how do you know this place?
Yoongi's thoughts got cut right through and stumbled silently when he saw Y/N standing right in front of him.
🐱Yoongi: I... I am here. I'm just passing by.
🦉Jihye: You know this lie is terrible.
Jihye looks around to see anyone is looking and she pulls Yoongi into the Officetel building.
🦉Jihye: Let's talk inside.
------
Yoongi followed Jihye to her apartment.
🦉Jihye: Would you mind to help me to carry the kitten's carrier?
Jihye pass yoongi the carrier. Seol-tang is now sleeping soundly.
Jihye stands in front of the door and enters the pin code to get in. Yoongi is standing at the side *accidentally* saw Jihye pressing the buttons '3', '0', '9'. The door opens.

Yoongi enters the apartment. It is in shades of light gray and white with simple wooden furniture. He walks to the coffee table and put down the pet carrier.
🦉Jihye: Would you like to have yuzu tea or coffee?
🐱Yoongi: uh... Americano.
While Jihye is preparing the coffee, Yoongi glance through the living room. He saw an open cabinet of all the BTS goods. Every BTS album shelved, MUSTER and concert tickets were organized neatly on display. And of course, the polaroid photo and postcard from his B-day support event is placed at the most front.
Jihye passes him a cup of Americano.
🦉Jihye: Are you here looking for me?
Yoongi was silent for about ten seconds and said, 'Yes. uh... I was wondering did you received the 'B-day event gift'.
🦉Jihye: Yes, I did. Thank you for such a well-thought gift for the ARMYs.
🐱Yoongi: You have a cat now? What is the name?
🦉Jihye: Seol-tang (sugar). It's a boy.
🐱Yoongi: It's a really cute kitty. It sure makes a really good companion for you and your boyfriend.
🦉Jihye: Boy...boyfriend? What boyfriend?
🐱Yoongi: I thought you might have one by now.
Jihye was really confused by his words but trying hard to think of an event that might make him said that.
🦉Jihye: By any chance... that rainy night. Did you saw me with Taeho sunbae?
Yoongi did not reply.
🦉Jihye: It is a misunderstanding. Taeho sunbae help me rescued Seol-tang that evening and send me home because it was raining. Yes, he did confess that he likes me. But I rejected him.
🐱Yoongi: So he is not your boyfriend?
🦉Jihye: No. 확실해 Hwak-silhae (I am very certain about it).
Yoongi breaks into a smile after hearing it, but continue to act calm and said, "I am just being careful for you not to create any misunderstanding if you have a boyfriend". "The way you just pull a guy into your apartment is going to give a wrong message to a guy".
🦉Jihye: So am I also giving you a wrong message?
🦉Jihye: I'm just worried if there are any sasaengs are around. I really want to talk to you. I miss you.
🦉Jihye: I promised myself not to give you any trouble as a friend. But on your birthday last year, I wanted to send you a birthday greeting through Kakaotalk. I realized you changed your number.
🐱Yoongi: Ah~ I'm sorry. I did change my phone number because of the sasaengs, and I got my manager to help me with the transition of contacts. I guess he must have missed it.
Out of nowhere, Yoongi laughs.
🦉Jihye: What are you laughing about?
🐱Yoongi: I think I know why Sejin Hyung missed your number. Because I named it as yeoksam-dong friend.
🦉Jihye: What? What kind of name is it?!
Yoongi stop his laughter and reach out his hand, gesturing
🐱Yoongi: Give me your phone.
Yoongi took over Jihye's phone and enter his new phone number and name it and make a call to his phone. He then saves Jihye's number as My number one fan-Jihye.
Jihye looking at the contact names he created and can't stop laughing.
The ice between them has finally broken after the silly laughs. Even seol-tang is woken up by their laughter.
------
🐱Yoongi: I regretted putting your name as number one fan. I did not even see you at the fan meeting and fan signs.
🦉Jihye: What should I do then? BTS became so popular that I can only get into the fan sign events through the raffle, and I never have any luck last year. And how do I compete with the young girls and site owners who can queue early morning to the music shows? I'm busy too.
🐱Yoongi: Aigoo. The number one trending webtoon creator is so cocky now. You should have bought more albums then. Your royalties received should be a little gold mountain now.
🦉Jihye: How can my royalties compare to yours, Min-producer-nim?
------
The two old friends' diss is broken by a phone call for Yoongi.
------
🐱Yoongi: I gotta go back.
Yoongi gives a rub to Seol-tang's head before heading to the door.
🐱Yoongi: I'm going to Gwangju next week for the next album's jacket cover shooting, and with all the dance practice before the next comeback. I'm afraid I wouldn't be free anytime soon.
🦉Jihye: Don't worry. I'll wait for you. I'm really excited for the next album too.
🐱Yoongi: Keep in touch through the phone!
------
Yoongi reached the ground floor and look up to my apartment. I look through the window and wave goodbye to him. He returns with his gummy smile and left.
I'm sure Year 2015 is a good year!
----
🦉Jihye: Ahhh!!! Daebak! They got their first win!
10 minutes later, the boys upload their joy on Twitter!

The Rig Mechanist’s Maintenance Report
More than a generation had passed since the creation of a new type of weapon, one that outclassed anything else, but the creator put limits on the technology to prevent it from being used in aggressive combat. With the powerful humanoid weapons, rigs, there to stop battles from breaking out, new ways of taking land had to be developed. That led to the sport of rig combat; powerful weapons pitted against each other with countries betting land and resources on the outcome. But it wasn't just the machines and pilots that competed; the workers that ensured the rigs were able to fight had battles of their own. A mechanist's fight begins before the first shot is fired and their minds are their best weapons.

I Was Reincarnated as Someone's Mana??
My name is Magnus Karlsson, and by a series of rather unfortunate events that I had absolutely no say in, I was killed and reincarnated. In this story, you will follow Magnus as he tries his very best to survive in a world that's been thrown into chaos, together with the man whose mana he is, Allan Woodsworth. Well, not a man per se, more of a little boy who has no idea what the fuck is going on, but, you know... I'm sure it'll be fine. Nothing bad will happen to the pair. Nope. No abandoned kids here. Anyhow. The world that Magnus has been thrown into is one perversed by the will of a great mage who, three thousand years ago, decided that it would be a great idea to infuse all the people of the earth with so-called "orbs". These magical crystals allow their handler to control and generate mana, which they can then use to become mages. Most barely use them, since the mana cost of doing such a little thing as a fireball spell is absolutely ridiculous. Said mage, Theodore Cromwell, Magnus used his resources to infuse not only humans with orbs, but animals as well, giving rise to what the mage community calls "horrid perversions of nature", but what the common folk calls "monsters". Orbs can be used for much, and it is through orbs that people keep track on their level of mana and such, and destroying the orb of a monster is A, the only way to kill it and B, a good way to absorb extra mana and raise ones level. It is such an orb that Magnus has been tranformed into. ------ To those that care, I'm very sorry about the title, it's just that, well, it's very good to be blunt about isekais like this since people such as myself search precisely for this, so having super-serious names like "The Magnus of the World of Orbs" would turn people wanting a simple and fun isekai off. I hope you give this story a fair chance! ------ Edit: IWRASM now has a deviantart page!!! https://www.deviantart.com/thefunartcorner
