"jisung, are you sure everything's okay? you've seemed a bit down lately."
"haha, thanks for asking, binki. i'm all good, just a bit worn out from school works. but really, i'm fine."
"are you sure? remember, i'm your friend and roommate. if anything's on your mind or you need help, just come to me, okay? i'm here to support you if you're facing any trouble."
"thanks, bin..."
"by the way, about the lyrics for 'hellevator'... chan's really excited about it. he's wondering if you've finished it already."
"oh, yeah... i'm almost done with it."
"don't stress too much about it, jisung. chan wouldn't want you to overwork yourself for 3racha. take care of yourself, alright?"
"i will, binki. thanks for looking out for me."

"jisung, has changbin already talked to you about the lyrics for 'hellevator'?"
"yes, hyung. i'm still working on finishing it, but i'll make sure to have it ready for you within this week."
"ji, no rush. i'm not pressuring you, especially since i know you're stressed with school works. focus on that first. you can give me the lyrics whenever you're ready."
"but, hyung... it's been a while since we released a new song as 3racha. i feel responsible since i haven't been as active in the group lately."
"don't blame yourself, ji. we agreed that 3racha would take a back seat for now, right? it won't fade away as long as the three of us stick together. so, take a break. you need it, especially with your program, haha."
"hyung..."
"plus, jeongin would scold us for letting his beloved brother overwork himself."
"right..."

"jisung, are you... okay? i don't want to be nosy or anything, but you seem a bit out of it lately."
"what do you mean, seungmin? i'm fine."
"jisung, the professor literally called you out earlier for not paying attention to his lessons. this is the first time it's happened; you're a straight-A student, and now you're getting scolded by professors."
"i just have a lot on my plate lately, but i'm fine. it just so happens that i was a little tired earlier, and the professor noticed that."
"i know you're not fine, sung. i'll be honest with you—i've seen some of your scores on quizzes and tests, and they're not the best. if there's anything bothering you, i'm here to help. you've always been there for us, let us be here for you, okay?"
"you're overthinking, seung. but okay, thanks for worrying. anyway, i'll get going now. bye."

"hey, hyun...how's lixie?"
"lix? he's good, why?"
"oh...that's good to hear. is he stressed or anything? eating well? sleeping on time?"
"ji, i assure you, felix is fine. he's mostly playing games or studying in his room. why are you so worried, by the way? if you don't mind me asking."
"oh, um, it's nothing..."
"ji, i know it's not just 'nothing.' did you have a lover's quarrel? given that you haven't been visiting our dorm lately."
