《First Love (YoonMin)》Chapter 4
Advertisement
"Jiminie, why are you picking Yoongi-ssi as the composer? He hasn't composed in years after his accident."
"It's weird, Tae, I have this feeling about him—a good one. Like he's meant to do this."
☙
Taehyung doesn't know why he let Jimin talk him into hiring Yoongi as the composer, it probably has something to do with the soft spot he has for his best friend. Either way, Taehyung finds himself sitting in a café watching Jimin and Yoongi sign back and forth. It has always amazed Taehyung how two people can have a wordless conversation and yet understand each other perfectly. It amazes him more that Jimin had learnt how to dance and sign without eyesight. Taehyung was so proud of his best friend.
Taehyung zones out for most of Yoongi and Jimin's conversation, only paying attention when Jimin speaks to him to explain what they're saying. By the end of it, Taehyung is amazed that Jimin somehow convinced Yoongi to take the job. Namjoon had warned Taehyung that Yoongi might back out from the deal and to not get his hopes up. Taehyung just hopes Jimin will understand if he does.
Everyone knows that Yoongi can't stand writing music after his mother was killed in that car accident. The same accident that rendered him deaf. Yoongi was only fifteen when it happened, a drunk driver had swerved out of their lane and hit the driver's side of the car. His mother was instantly killed and Yoongi suffered from severe brain damage. The doctors were able to save him, but he lost his hearing in the process. Now he can't compose because it reminds him of his mother. He only started performing again two years ago.
It was a miracle that Yoongi had survived the accident and it was a miracle that Jimin got him to say yes.

"I don't know, Jiminie. He's probably going to back out of the deal. You know what happened to his mother. He doesn't compose anymore. We might as well start looking for someone else."
"Tae—" Jimin turns to face Taehyung with a look of determination in his silver eyes, "—he's the one."
"How do you know? There are millions of other composers out there, so what makes Min Yoongi stand out?"
"He—" Jimin sighs and pats the space next to him on the couch, "—sit down, please." He continues after Taehyung sits down, "I've never told you this before, but, I've been having these weird dreams lately. I'm on stage dancing to a song I've never heard before, yet it sounds so familiar to me. It's a beautiful one that makes me feel bittersweet emotions. I want to cry and smile, it's really confusing. Anyway, there's a man playing the song on the piano. When I finish my dance, he claps for me and says, 'Good job, Minie.' This is going to sound crazy, but Yoongi has the same voice as him."
"That is crazy, Jiminie. Yoongi doesn't speak anymore. Not after the accident."
"That's the thing, though! He spoke at the café. It may have been broken Korean, but I could never mistake that voice. It's him."
"Are you sure? This sounds a little cliché to me."
"I'm positive, Tae. I'm not performing unless Yoongi is on stage with me."
"Um...you know he's going to be off-stage, right?"
"Shut up!"

Ars Magica
Our vision comes back into focus. Our eyes, while being able to perceive the immediate surroundings, still leave us with our minds uncomprehending towards what is actually occurring. Sure, there are definitive things that we can focus on, like the fact that we're either out upon the open sea or the open ocean, there not being much of a difference with no land in sight, as well as the fact that we appear to be upon a haphazardly constructed metal boat, whose seams are barely able to keep a hold of themselves in the crashing waves. However, that does not let us understand what exactly is causing the waves in the first place. If we were to rewind time, we'd find ourselves upon a calm sea under a peaceful sky with the only difference, being a small whirlpool that would be the precursor towards this uproar around the boat. Lightning flashes in the sky, with no clouds being near, and anyone actually manning the boat has either died towards the cause of the smashing tides in the first place, or are fighting amongst the flashes of lightning, all while trying not to become devoured, demolished, and utterly decimated by the beast roiling in the whirling waves. To better understand exactly what is happening here, there is one singular event that needs to be understood, that needs to be explained, and that is the arrival of a creature named Dave. Stepping back from current events and going towards this creature's first appearance in the world, we begin to hear the sound of water slowly dripping across rocky ground. The cavern is utterly silent except for this one constant, its cause feeding channels downwards, sloping towards cracks in the rubble along the floor from broken stalagmites and stalactites. And there, lying on top of something which had fallen over recently, judging from its cracks, is a person, the creature named Dave. His form is fast asleep, either from the impact or from an intoxication, judging from the smell upon its breath. A bright light suffuses into it for a second, giving life towards the pale skin, before it slowly dies down back to the comfortable black of the cave that it's within. Before this moment in time, Dave did not exist in the physical world. At least, not in the reality that he finds himself born into. We do not know whether or not his existence is simply a cosmic joke, or something that is being played out on purpose. All that we do know, is that one moment, the body was not in the cave, and simply formed in the next. The actual earliest time that we know Dave exists, is the interpolation of the memories of J-209, which we'll begin looking into shortly to gain context towards the coming narrative that is being written and hastily trying to keep itself written. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Warning: This story has several things which might turn its readers away. The first is that this story has shifting points of perspective. Don't worry about that previous sentence too much though, as the main character will always have a first person perspective associated with them. However, any other character from which we're viewing the story from will either be in third-person, as we are not necessarily in their shoes at the moment, or in first person, given that the narrator is an actual physical presence within the story. For the most part, chapters will be self-contained with their perspectives, so there will not be an abundance of switching perspectives within the same chapter. The most that an average reader would have to worry about is the fact that perspectives can switch between chapters. The second thing is that the main character is a bit on the 'special' side of things. He's not exactly mentally there most of the time, so there will be some times that his personality or his thoughts do not actively align with his actions. The third, and final thing of importance, is the fact that past the first couple of chapters, nothing has been planned in advance. There are arcs and plots that I want to do, want to implement, or have already been set into motion from our main character's introduction to the world, but the method that I use for my story writing and generating leads towards a bit more random chance being enabled. Basically...there's a lot of dice rolling behind the scenes. To not complicate the story further than its regular LitRPG elements, the rolls will not be publicly available. However, there will be knowledge within the author's notes on whether or not there were positive or negative critical rolls that had occurred within the chapter. You have been warned. Updates: Mondays & Fridays (Schedule permitting) Typical Chapter Length: (2,000-3,000)
