taehyung was doodling on his hand while he waited for the hair stylist to rinse his hair. his brother was sat next to him, absorbed with something on his phone. seokjin let out a miserable sigh, double tapping on the screen and scrolling. "do you think if i like his photos enough he'll notice me?" seokjin wondered out loud. taehyung looked to him and furrowed his brows, confused.

"who?" taehyung asked. that he knew of, jin only had friends and the occasional fling but he never longingly stalked someone's social media.

"the one and only rap monster," jin sighed dreamily and taehyung snorted. he had heard the name before, and even listened to some of his songs, but he never imagined his older brother would have a celeb crush on him.

"good luck with that," taehyung mumbled, "although from what chanyeol told me, he tries his best to reply to fans. you should try writing a comment instead of just spamming him with likes. people already do that."

jin frowned. his little brother had a point. but what could he possibly write? taehyung looked toward his brother again, noticing he was strangely immobile. he leaned in to see the screen and then gasped. "i know," jin sniffed, "he looks so hot here, i cannot."

"no, jin. i'm not surprised because of that."

taehyung took the phone from him and stared at the photo of the rapper with the ashy green hair. "then why are you surprised? i don't get it."

"jinnie, this is my friend namjoon. the one i told you buys a bunch of random things in bulk. i didn't know he was rap monster," taehyung hissed. "oh my god. i'm friends with a celebrity. oh, my—.

"—god, taehyung, you need to introduce him to me! better yet, just give me his phone number!"

taehyung gasped. "no! i can't do that! that's disrespectful as fuck!"

"how can you be friends with a celebrity and not know?" jin accused, yanking his phone back. taehyung had to admit, his clumsy friend had the looks of a super star, but then again so did his brother and the chanmin squad. he knew who rap monster was, he had just never seen photos of him. he was a recent fan and didn't follow him on social network sites so he was in the dark.

but chanyeol and possibly jimin had to know. so why didn't they mention it?

the hair stylist called for taehyung and he stood up from his comfy seat, leaving a still stunned brother behind him.

which was okay, because jin decided to breathe in nice and easy and continue with his stalking. he found a photo of the tall rapper accompanied by two other guys who jin had to admit were almost as good looking. the caption talked of a collaboration coming up with "j-hope-official" and "agust-d". the trio were posing in front of a table covered in rolls of duct tape. jin hummed, realising the second name was very familiar. he decided to click on it and saw he was already following the account of the rapper. after a bit of scrolling he saw he had been rocking blonde hair before switching to black.

he sighed. this guy was pretty attractive.

he looked at a recent photo of this agust d guy and frowned, wondering why it looked so familiar. he figured he probably saw it on his newsfeed but he felt he had seen this... at home?

he turned to taehyung, who was now getting his freshly dyed hair blow dried. then it dawned on him.

it was the weird, pale dudes taehyung had been drawing recently.

seokjin snorted at the idea. his brother couldn't know all these celebrities. he refused to acknowledge that. no. taehyung was probably just feeling emo because he had to fill in for his manager instead of sleeping in this winter holiday, so he personified his feelings onto paper.

seokjin didn't know what to think.
