Hoseok- VR

This was requested by someone on the discord I think. I don't remember who, but if you want credit, just comment here. Cool cool.

Run was always fun. It was a fun show to film. These types of variety shows allowed for the seven of them to experience so many amazing things they wouldn't have gotten to experience otherwise. Despite how amazing these experiences are, they would still get nervous. There's no denying they were all nervous for that one bungee jumping episode. Well... other than Jungkook. But at least they had plenty reason to be nervous. Hoseok was nervous for the next episode for no reason. There was nothing to be scared of. No heights, no water, just amazing vr technology. But Hoseok was nervous.

He had never experienced VR before, but what he had heard was it making people sick, people getting disoriented and getting motion sickness. And for some reason, that terrified him. Everyone else was excited, even yoongi, so hoseok just went along with it and pretended to be excited, even though he was terrified inside.

His stomach was turning already as they entered the room, so much vr everywhere. He felt sweat starting to line his forehead and his palms. Stop being so stupid hoseok, vr can't kill you. he told himself. Though it did nothing. His anxiety was not eased in the slightest.

They all got in line, about to start filming the introduction. Namjoon, who was stood next to hoseok, noticed hoseoks pale complexion and couldn't help but point it out.

"Are you ok hoseok-ah? You look a little pale..." Namjoon said, quietly so as to not draw too much attention to him.

"Yeah im fine." Hoseok says with a nod, trying desperately to not give himself away.

"if you say so." Namjoon says casually with a shrug, turning back to the cameras. Hoseok bit his tongue, wishing he could have just told the truth. He kept preparing himself to tell the truth, but the words wouldn't come out. When they finally did...

"actually-" the word finally came out, in a quiet and mousey voice, only for him to be interrupted by the crew calling for the cameras to start rolling.

"What was that hoseok?" Namjoon asked, having heard the little mousey voice.

"Oh... uh... nothing." Hoseok replied, cursing at himself inside. Just say the damn words hoseok.

"ok." namjoon said, simply, patting hoseok on the shoulder, at then they started, and hoseok had to plaster a smile on his face. He acted happy as they paired into teams and explained the episode.

Then came the first part, like a little warm up, using VR for the first time and getting to experince it, along with a moving platform that would simulate whatever was happening on screen to make the experience more realistic. Jimin and yoongi went first, and though yoongi's platform wasn't working, just watching jimin made hoseok feel motion sick. The way it jostled him around was enough to make bile start rising, and yet, hoseok still plastered a smile on his face for the cameras. The when yoongi and jimin finished, they both said it made them feel sick and dizzy, and then hoseok knew he wouldn't last. He gulped down the lump in his throat. At least the two still seemed to be laughing.

Then jungkook went, who clearly enjoyed it, with no care in the world. Hoseok continued to laugh and act as if nothing was happening, but in reality his heart was beating out of his chest as he knew his turn is next.

He put the headset on, and the 3D screen already made his eyes go all weird. He looked around, struggling to get his bearings. The video of a rollercoaster started as the platform moved around. Hoseok tried his best to joke around and make them laugh, but they could tell that something was up by the end. Hoseoks stomach turned at how dizzy he felt. He took the headset off and his eyes flickered around the room as he struggled to get his bearings once again. He dizzily stepped off the podium with a soft groan, and a hand came to rest itself on his stomach.
"Are you ok Hoseok? You look really pale." Namjoon said, noticing he was even paler than when they started filming. He was so pale he almost looked green. It wasn't good.
"I-" Hoseok battled with his brain, as he knew he should tell the truth but there was something in him that was telling him he should continue to lie and say he's ok.
"Yeah it's just... made me really dizzy." Hoseok says, settling for a compromise. He was half telling the truth.
"Why don't you just sit down for a moment?" Namjoon suggests, and Hoseok nods, finding a surface to sit on.
