I visited Namjoon's office and he was reading a book.
"You need any help with anything."
"f/n go to bed, rest, relax, 👏treat 👏your👏self!" he shut his book. I began to laugh.
"Alright I'll go, but before that. Can I see the request board."
"Yeah what for?" Namjoon asked
"Just curious." I looked in Jimin's section. There were the necessities such as clothing and hygiene products, but there was one that stood out to me.
"Dance Studio?" I asked
"He asked for it the first moment he walked in. It's his coping mechanism. He wanted me to keep it a secret." Namjoon kinda panicked.
"I won't tell anyone. I'll just be sneaky. I turned into a bird and flew around to see where it could be. I heard music and followed that. Aha found it. I flew through the cracked door and landed on one of the shelves where there was a bag of different cloths. I see he likes to set the mood.
Earlier he was wearing all black, now he wears white. He had flowing white fabric to complement his dance moves and the outfit. It was beautiful. His feathers and blue hair moved elegantly. He could do ballet. The music stopped and he moved towards the bag. nononononononononononononononononoNONONONONABORT ABORT.
"AHH" Jimin jumped back and I flew out of the container into my half form
"HOLy shit my life flashed before my eyes....again!" I held my heart to my chest.
"How long were you here?" He asked strongly
"Long enough to fall in love with your dance." I panicked as he pushed me against the wall. He might be shy, but when he's mad, he's really scary. Jimin's face relaxed in shock and he realized he pinned me against the wall.
"Sorry, bad habit."
"It's a scary habit. We can work on it. But seriously, you have talent.
"Thanks. Again sorry if I hurt you. I know you are not doing the best right now." he said.
"I could say the same to you. You killed yourself yesterday. I've been here for only a couple of months. But I've certainly learned a lot, and there is still more to learn." I said smiling.
"Were you always this happy? You know before this?" He asked. My face dropped.
"No, I wasn't. I had no one but my mom. Society led me to jump off a roof. It's a shame when I realized what friendship and acceptance truly was, I was already dead." I said.
"Things seem pretty chill here. I'm happy I can be myself here. My parents killed me. Not literally of course, then they would be sent to hell and I wouldn't be here." Jimin said.
"You got daddy issues?"
"Mommy and daddy issues?" he joked back.
"They wanted me to be perfect. When I didn't act normal in their eyes, they'd hurt me. Then they sent me in a hospital for mental treatment even though there was nothing really wrong with me. They kept me there cause I was a burden, I couldn't be the son they wanted me to be. As a lesson to them, I overdosed, hoping to be in a better place than that life."
"And you're okay with this?"
"Even though it was painful, I'm gonna forget it for an eternity. Here it is better. It has its ups and downs. I only know the ups so far, so it's hard to say where I stand. Will I enjoy this better than human life, probably. I'm just taking it with a grain of salt." Jimin said,
"That's very wise of you." I sat up from the floor and stretched my wings.
"What are you?"
"Huh?"
"I'm a black swan, what are you. Those feathers are awesome."
"Cardinal. I could say the same to you. I'll let you continue. You must need an outlet for everything. I'll be in my nest, decorating. I know Tae is painting right now, I'm not sure about the others. But you and Tae seem to get along pretty well."
"It's cause we died at the same human age. That's how it began. It's silly, but it's something. Thanks for the chat, f/n" I waved to him and flew over to my nest where all the new decor were in boxes.

I am not sure how long I've been organizing the room, but I am almost done. I just need to get the decorations done. I heard two voices and some commotion.
"Taehyung I'm gonna fall if I fo that!" Jimin yells.
"I'll catch you!" he says. I peak from my nest and see Tae and Jimin bickering. It looks like he's having a hard time flying. His black swan form is beautiful. His beak was red like cherries, and his wings pitch black with white at the end. Jimin waddled around Taehyung in his peacock form.
I flew down to then and grabbed both of them in their bird forms and brought them to the same edge where Jungkook pushed me off.
"I'm not gonna push you, but I certainly won't let you fall," I said as I set them down.
"Just use your wings to glide down. You don't necessarily have yo fly. Let the air take you." Tae instructed. Jimin followed Tae down to the ground. Jimin was catching on quickly, and elegantly. I wonder what his power is going to be.
"Can I join you f/n?" Jimin yelled up to my nest.
"If you can fly up here, yeah!" I challenged him. I continued to lay out the rugs and set up the fairy lights around. It took about ten minutes for Jimin to make it up, he turned back to grim form.
"I...hu...made it." He said out of breath.
I handed him a water bottle from my mini-fridge. I think this is my favorite thing I requested. I pulled out my favorite soda can and opened it.
"Thanks, this is a cool place."
"Yeah. It's just a chill zone for me. Not everyone's nest is in the training area." I explained as I put up the f/c curtain to keep the nest private.
"The wait...does that curtain glow in the dark?" Jimin said observing the curtain. I turned off the lights in the nest and there was a bunch of glow in the dark stars scattered throughout the room.
"This place doesn't actually have windows. So I made a way for me not to need windows, without going into the real world."
"This is very cool. I might just make the dance room my nest." He said,
"Just run it through Namjoon and it'll be cleared. By the way, what room are you in. I'm roommates with Taehyung." I asked.
"I have a room to myself, but there is an empty bed. So whoever comes next will be my roommate." Jimin explained. We chatted for the rest of the night and Tae joined us as we played some card games, recalling to times when we were alive. It was getting late and we were heading down to the living room before we were about to head to bed. One of the portals opened and Jungkook came out.
I assumed he finished his night shift, but I was proven wrong at the moment I saw his blood.
