《Idol War (VKOOK)》My turn
Advertisement
Jungkook changes into a white button up and black dress pants.
When he comes out of the closet that he changed in, Namjoon looks over at him for confirmation.
"Mm Jungkook, I'm a little bored. You need to add something to it." He says before going back to his shoot with Taehyung.
And the brown haired boy smirks, as if he's happy with Namjoon's words. Jungkook sighs before heading back into the closet.
He looks around for a bit, trying to figure out what the producer means. He tries on multiple hats and colourful belts but nothing seems to work.
His cheeks are now flushed pink as embarrassment settles in on him. Namjoon already seems disappointed in him and the competition hasn't even started yet.
However under the pile of belts that Jungkook tried on, he finds a special belt. He finds overalls more specifically, black overalls.
Without hesitation, the boy clips the overalls on, wrapping them around his body one than the other. They match his outfit perfectly, complimenting his black hair and pants.
Jungkook shows his outfit to Namjoon for the second time and gets an automatic applause.
"Wonderful, this is a great outfit. Taehyung, I think we're done here. Go get changed and we'll talk." Namjoon waves off the brown haired boy, excitedly turning his attention to Jungkook.
Jungkook watches as Taehyung slowly moves away from the camera, a little skeptical about the abrupt ending to his shoot.
He walks by Jungkook and refuses to look at the boy before heading into the closet. Jungkook looks back to Namjoon.
"He's a little moody, that's just Kim Taehyung. Very competitive." Namjoon says, giggling when he sees the worry on Jungkook's face.
"Now get in front of that camera and pose!" Namjoon lightly pushes Jungkook to the centre of the shoot area, causing the boy to squint at the bright lights.

He looks in front of him at the big camera, gulping as Namjoon adjusts the tripod. He's unsure what he's suppose to do until Namjoon looks up at him and smiles.
"Don't be shy, do whatever feels natural. I'll be taking pictures periodically."
Jungkook nods before taking a few steps back to give himself some room. He starts off by just smiling for the camera, praying that his bunny toothed smile will save him.
These pictures aren't that important. They're just shown to introduce everyone to each competitor. They only use these pictures after the actual auditions.
And the better the photo, the more the fans.
"That's good, let's try something else." Namjoon says after Jungkook has been smiling for a good minute. The boy closes his mouth, turning his body a little as he stares into the camera with the same look.
He tries out more standing positions, smiling and not, before Taehyung exits the closet wearing more casual clothes. Jungkook tries to keep his eyes on the camera, however he lets them wander for a second to look at the brown haired boy once more.
And Taehyung is looking right back at him, his eyes deep as he stares the black haired boy down.
Jungkook looks away right away, hoping Namjoon didn't notice.
"Try lower positions, some on the ground maybe?" Namjoon says while continuing to snap.
Jungkook nods, his legs automatically bending until he's sitting on the floor. His moves don't feel all that natural but he tries his best to model.
Jungkook puts his hands on his knees, out stretching his legs in front of him while looking at the camera. Namjoon nods, snapping more pictures of him while he moves every few shots.
"You're doing well." Namjoon says.
Taehyung is standing next to Namjoon, observing Jungkook carefully. Jungkook tries not to let it get to him.

However Taehyung doesn't move, his eyes barely even blink as he stares at the boy, judgment filling his big eyes. It almost makes Jungkook crack, making his cheeks tint pink and sweat forming.
"Taehyung let's go, I'm done signing the forms and your father has supper all ready." Taehyung's mother stands up from the table where Jungkook's mother is also sitting.
"Okay." Taehyung turns away quickly, not saying goodbye to Namjoon or Jungkook before him and his mother walk out the door.
Just like that.
Jungkook watches him leave, slightly in awe before Namjoon calls him out.
"Okay Jungkook, I'm done. We have good pictures here so I congratulate you." He says, smiling to Jungkook as the younger bows.
"Thank you!" Jungkook says, shaking Namjoon's hand again before heading to the closet where he changes out of the nice clothes.
Jungkook's mother finishes singing the consent forms, asking Jungkook to sign the last part before they're finally done. They say goodbye to Namjoon, grabbing his email before they leave so he can email them about auditions.
They'll start at 6pm on July 3rd, in studio A which is on the 3rd floor. Each competitor will perform on stage, in front of the three judges.
And it will be aired, Jungkook will actually be on TV. And if he makes it, he'll be on TV more than once.

Memories of the Fall
This is a story about two sisters, Jun Arai and Jun Sana, and their friends, Juni, Ling and Shu who make their living as members of the Hunter Bureau, an organisation dedicated to dealing with the terrifying flora and fauna endemic to their home Great World. When they get dragged into a grand scheme to unpick the ancient secrets entombed within one its foremost forbidden zones in their world, the Yin Eclipse Mountains, they must all try to survive the dark machinations, eldritch undercurrents and the echoes of a terrible conflict trying to re-emerge into an unsuspecting cosmos that had rather hoped it was done with that kind of thing a few eras hence. So please come join Arai, Sana, Juni, Ling, Shu and the rest of my cast as they journey through strange lands, meet all kinds of unusual beings and unravel some of the power and glory of a land time tried very hard to forget. I promise terrifying mushrooms, angry snakes, confused gods, even more confused cultivators and much, much more! Update schedule: (02/6/2022) As chapters are done, sorry. Progress: Currently up to old chapter 13-15. Chapter 24(or 25)/13, Parts 1 & 2 will be the end of the rework. Part 2 has been temporarily delayed due to me getting a frozen shoulder in the middle of June, which has been very slow to properly clear up. It is getting better, though, but Shoulder/neck is the worst set of muscles to have issues with ;( You can currently pick up most story threads after the rewritten chapters, starting from chapter 13-14 (old) Genre-wise, this is a bit hard to pin down. It's technically a Xianxia (because cultivators!), but it also veers towards Xuanhuan and has more traditional High Fantasy elements and a bit of Gods and Monsters and All Myths Are (on some levels) Valid. It also has a fairly large, ensemble cast, so if multiple point's of view are not your thing I am sorry. It won't ever really be considered 'grimdark' by any real measure of that definition but it does go to some complicated and fairly places dark occasionally, which I will note in author pre-chapter notes when expedient!. About the Author I mainly write fiction for my own hobby, it makes a nice change from academic scribbling! I started writing this quite a number of years ago. It has grown somewhat organically out of a bunch of different interests in all kinds of Mythology, World Building, Drawing Maps, Archaeology, Anthropology, History and Epic Fantasy fiction into what it is today. So I hope you enjoy the story and thanks for reading! Other stuff The cover is made by the author, using photos taken by the author. There is a Discord Server- Please come and chat, but beware of spoilers.

Night Terror
Story is currently 'on hold' for an indefinite period of time - I will eventually post the whole thing when it's complete, see the news post for more details. After dying young, a man reincarnates into a new world as Abe Haruki. 'This whole world is suspicious...' Despite the fact that Haruki had never once met a god, even during his reincarnation, he couldn't help feeling that this world was just too... Intelligently designed? I mean, seriously... Levels? Classes? Stats? Items? You can even level up your abilities! 'Definitely suspicious...' Unfortunately, the Church have been keeping close tabs on him from the shadows. They've heard rumours of a boy, born with a golden ring. With magical affinities that defy logic. Darkness and light energies destroy each other, violently, so how does he have the affinity for both? Can Haruki live his peaceful life along side childhood friend Suzu? Or will they fall to the coming darkness? ::Author's note:: While there are stats and exp etc, it's not LitRPG. They are there, but not the focus in any way. The world is more hardcore - A human is soft, so a pierced lung should eventually kill them. Even though they have a small pool of HP, a single deadly blow can end it all. If you ever want to say G'day, I'm in the discord chat every now and then, so feel free to join the madness ;) Thanks for reading

Children Of The Deep
The last of humanity lives within cities surrounded by walls said to reach outer space. The Deep roams the outside, spewing out monsters and raising mountains. The only ones capable of hunting it and freeing humanity are called Rankers, but they refuse to do it, for on top of those mountains are Bosses. Killing them gives power. To kill the Deep is to kill their power. But everything changes when a child figures out how to use the Deep to destroy the most powerful city in what is known as the 4th Fall. Terror spreads. A senseless war is brewing. Nico's parents died in the 4th fall. Faced with the prospects of having what's left of his family evicted out of the city walls for not being able to pay rent anymore, he attempts to become a Ranker, only to fail because he refused to forfeit a match. Now, he must fight with the very person said to cause the 4th Fall for any chance at survival.
