BTS members, Yoongi and Jimin, have always had a tense relationship, so it comes as a surprise when Yoongi wakes up years in the past to mend that very relationship with Jimin. He is ready to risk it all, but also, he is ready to take a nap.

Yoongi jolted at a loud noise and fluttered his eyelids. He could tell he had jumped in time, but didn't feel the motion sickness as intensely as previous times. Maybe he was getting used to it. His limbs were starfished out, but what was more unusual than his sleeping position was the width of the bed. Jimin's? When he tilted his head he found that Jimin's figurines and bed were to the right of him. He scrunched his face in confusion because he must have fallen asleep in Hoseok's bed. His hand was caught up in what he identified as a shirt so he shook it onto the floor before groggily exiting the room.
The members were gathered around the tv with just enough room for him on the couch. All of them were engrossed, watching a drama that he vaguely remembered as being about a detective who catches ghosts. Well, all of them were there except for Jimin. Wondering where Jimin could be he decided to play it safe until his new memories caught up. The drama seemed kind of stupid, but it would do until he got hungry enough to make something.
Hours later there was a faint sound of the front door closing. A pile of members, Yoongi included, had their eyes glued to the screen, but Yoongi snapped his head around as soon as he connected that it must be Jimin. What he saw bewildered him. Jimin looked angry. When Yoongi started to get up Jimin shook his head, then stalked directly to his bedroom with a slam of the door.
"That must have been what we heard earlier. " Jungkook said absentmindedly.
Yoongi was still trying to figure out what was going on when Taehyung got a text alert. He slipped away, Yoongi was sure, to go find Jimin.

Yoongi didn't come any closer to finding out what was going on in the days that followed.
The next day did seem fine. Everyone was preparing for the award ceremony that night. BTS accepted their medals that evening to become the youngest ever recipients of Korea's Order of Cultural Merit. It went well, and they were all so exhausted that evening that it was an early night for them.
It wasn't until the next morning that things were off. Jimin walked into the living room and upon seeing Yoongi immediately turned around. Although perplexed, Yoongi couldn't admit to himself that this was a big deal, but he could tell even the other members were affected. A blanket of unease fell over the entire dorm. Just like after snowfall, sound started to carry in a funny way. Yoongi could hear laughter or excited voices, but it was muted through closed doors. The hallways and common spaces seemed to always be empty.
When he did happen to come across anyone words were few and strange. It was even worse when Jimin passed by him as if he were a ghost, not acknowledging his stuttered attempts to have some type of interaction. After that time he only caught Jimin in glimpses of hurried withdrawal.
