《rosekook prompts.》Bare-faced Beauty.
Advertisement
Jeon Jungkook swears that Park Chaeyoung is the epitome of beauty, and not just physical too.
He doesn't know what it is, or how it is that she had such a gravitational pull onto him—perhaps in a previous life she were a witch that had him locked under her spell, a curse he'd happily obliged to. Her beauty had the ability to heal, he thinks, just thinking about how he gets to home back to his apartment to the warmth of her embrace after a tiring day of a full schedule, or the way her emojis through text perfectly personified how he'd imagine her verbal reaction to be to his texts. Sometimes, when he was having a particularly hard day, he'd video call her—and sometimes, they'd barely speak, but have each other on the other side while they did their mundane things.
Her beauty was encapsulated in her bright yet soft laugh, the type that made his lips curl upwards into a smile on their own.
In every room, every party and every award show—his eyes automatically gravitated towards her, even when his mind (and management) told him not to.
Jeon Jungkook simply couldn't help it.
By the third month (but over a year of courting her) he'd already memorised her intricacies such as the small birth marks on her face which peered through her make-up in certain lighting, or the way she always had to move her utensils to the left side before eating or even the way she does a cute sigh before answering the phone (because phone calls give her anxiety). He knows she's home by the sound of her slippers as she runs through the hallway, or the way she always forgets to bring her clothes into the bathroom and so looks left and right when he thinks he doesn't see and rushes to the bedroom with a towel around her body.

He knows how she gets particularly sensitive when she hasn't had enough sleep, and/or when she's on her period and he learned that he shouldn't talk so much, but to feed her chocolate and her favourite foods and give her cuddles and greet her with a hot green tea. She had a bad habit of biting her lower lip when she was nervous, and he knows she's easily nervous—the way she always has back pain despite still being quite young.
More so, Jeon Jungkook loves her.
All of it—even the parts that she tries to hide from him.
There was one thing that became clear to him by the third month of officially dating him and that was, she seldom was around him without make up.
Of course, there were a view instances where he'd caught her in rehearsals and/or on sleepovers bare faced, but she always hide her face with glasses, a hat, and/or her hair. She'd always go to sleep super late, and by the time he woke up, she was already getting ready for the day with Of course, the pair have had sex too—but she always asked for the lights to be dimmed low and asked him to take off his prescription contact lenses.
As if that'll even do anything!
That was one part of her that he didn't really like, and he was determined to make sure that he could change that.
Rule number one of boyfriend duties: make your girlfriend realise how beautiful she really was.
Besides, he was dating the most stunning woman on the planet and he deserved to see her in HD!
So Jeon Jungkook sits against the headboard of his bed, scrolling through his bed. He hears her coming in, fresh from the shower from afar, noticing him.
"You're no sleeping yet?" She questions him, partly confused to see.

He looks up and puts his phone on the bedside table, before tapping on the space beside him that was her side of the bed, "... come sit here."
There's a sense of hesitancy in her expression, before she opens her mouth to speak, "... let me dim the lights first, it's already late."
"Park Chaeyoung," he gets up, and walks towards her, feeling brokenness in his chest at the way she's almost scared for him to see her.
She's just as beautiful.
Of course she was.
He puts his hands against her cheeks, his eyes lingering onto hers with a smile.
"You're so beautiful, baby," his voice is soft, "... and I want you to know that, and I want you to feel comfortable to be with me without make up on because I promise you—you look so damn beautiful."
It was right there and then, that the unexpected occurred.
Park Chaeyoung broke down in tears, telling him about it all—about all the shame she felt when she'd first joined as a trainee, and how every single thing, every small imperfection was critiqued day in and day out.
But he's glad, because now he knows that she trusts him enough, and he spends the entire night asking her about each and every "flaw" of hers—and kisses each and every one, telling her over and over again about how she was perfect, to him.

Lalisa Manoban was hesitant when she found out that her best friend in the entire world was dating Jeon Jungkook. She'd heard a lot of rumours about the dating scene among idols and to be frank, it wasn't good and knowing how popular his group was, and how insane their fans could be, she wondered whether it could really be a good thing. Not only that, but he was associated with a lot of other idols and other celebrities.
It worried her.
Park Chaeyoung was the softest woman she knew, and so a part of her was always worried that he'd hurt her.
She swore that if Park Chaeyoung ever came back to the dorm with a tear in her eye, Lalisa Manoban, as her best friend will personally make sure to make his life hell.
But Lalisa Manoban learns that she's wrong, because ever since the pair dated—Park Chaeyoung has become a new woman. A confident and energetic version of the girl she knew.
She smiled more, laughed more and most importantly—she was confident in herself, whether it was trying a new hair style, wearing heels and/or the way she didn't bother to wear any makeup whenever they were out and about.
From those things alone, she figures out that he's a good man for her, and different from the others.

8 133A Canopy of Stars
Arden, planet of a billion souls, has been destroyed. A solar body, known only as The Dark Star collided with the world, shattering it. Through the actions of ancient heroes, and the sacrifice of the Gods, life found a way. Floating through the black sea of space, orbiting the destructive beauty of The Dark Star is Shatter, a coalition of continental rocks, surviving as best they can. Through magic and technological advancements, the fractured remnants of the planet have been made halfway habitable. In addition to shattering the prime material plane of Arden, The Dark Star’s destructive force also fractured the planar system, collapsing ancient barriers and forcing the wild elemental and chaotic magics of the planes into conjunction. The Kingfisher, helmed by the enigmatic and powerful Captain Thunder and her miscreant crew, do odd jobs to survive, operating outside of the law. One such job takes them to the shard of Evergreen, a fragment of planet covered in brilliant forests and the capricious and deadly faerie folk who call them home. Unfortunately, while the job seems simple enough from the outside, it quickly embroils the crew of the Kingfisher in a dangerous storm. Can Thunder and her crew keep to the sidelines when war is brewing around them?

Playing around with friends, going to school, and going on trips with his parents every once in a while. But life had other plans for his future than letting him grow like any normal teenager. At a young age his parents were killed, his friends slaughtered and family stolen. This had broken Julian completely, and hence he left on a journey to find strength to seek his revenge. But life was not yet done playing with his life, so it showed Julian that he had no talent to do anything that would lt him gain his revenge. It had become clear to Julian that the heavens did not favor him, so he left on one last journey when… ***** Ahhh I don't really know what else to add but ill write it here anyway, this is my first time writing a story, so I am still experimenting with things, so it is possible that you might find the beginning of the story to be a bit slow, but I assure you the later chapters and things I have in plan will not disappoint you. Oh, I also forgot to mention that I have taken inspiration from waaaay tooo many novels that I liked, and while there aren't any specific ones that I based this upon there are a few that I definitely took inspiration from like : the author's POV, chronicles of the heavenly demon [you can probably see where this inspired me ;)], etc.
