Intoxicating [VMinkook]

"HELLO YOU WHORE! COME OUT!"

"WE AIN'T FINNA HURT YOU!"

"WE KNOW YOU ARE OUT HERE!"

"This is a mess."

For the past hour, or more, who knows, Taehyung's mindspace has been a complete makeshift havoc. The four alters have been flipping everything upside down, trying to find the answers to this mess.

There's a new alter.

There has to be.

Neither of the four alters remember this memory at all with Jimin's Emergancy, so whoever was fronting must know about their act of communicating with hearts.

That means they've always been around, observing them, but what or who are they?

Alters can be anything; from fictional creatures, to actual humans or animals.

This alter is wise, very wise.

But so reckless.

"COME ON!" V screams as she looks under the couch, huffing with annoyed eyes, "You have to come out sooner or later!"

Tigresa evidently winces to V's voice and sends her a murderous glare, "With that tone, trust me they will never come out."

The tall teenager stands up, arms crossed with their own vicious glare, "Do you have any better ideas?"

A small snarl stretches Tigresa's lips but Karma stood between them, "Calm the fuck down, let's just all think about this first."

The two individuals glares at each other but only huffs and sits on the couch. Taehyung enters the living room after looking through all the rooms and sits on the coffee table with a pout, shaking his head when Karma lifts an eyebrow.

They're hiding, great.

"Alright before we jump into anything, let's all think about our own personality and role," Karma says and rubs his hands, "I'm the protector and-"

"Strict."

"Anger issues."

"Cold."

"Okay thanks," Karma huffs, "I'm in charge making sure all of you are okay."

Taehyung clears his throat but sighs, "I'm the host, I guess-"

"Artistic."

"Baby!"

"Sensitive as fuck."

"Wow thanks," Taehyung ventures sarcastically but his cheeks are feverishly blushing, proving their point.

V is smiling adoringly and grabs his arm, yanking him towards her so his head is laying on her chest as she caressed his hair and cradles the side of his body to her.

Not something new for the younger to do to the eldest.

He is to be specially, V's little baby.

"I guess I'm the stress reliever. Keeping the body relaxed or distracted. I guess I'm the normal one-"

"Athletic."

"More tomboy."

"Teenager, that's all there's to say."

V smiles painfully to Karma's last remark, "I'm hurt."

Tigresa grins to the sight of V and Taehyung cuddling, watching Taehyung giggle like a little baby when V pokes his nose adoringly.

Yeah perhaps she's a bit motherly too.

A tender hand caresses Tigresa's single braided hair, making their gaze shift to Karma sitting on the arm chair beside them, twitching a small smile when their eyes meet.

Brushing away the shivers, Tigresa clears their throat and leans back to Karma's body, placing an arm on his thigh while facing the children.

"Well, I guess I started as a perpetrator alter but I've been behaving. I think I'm just the sexual alter at this point, ah who knows," Tigresa sighs, smirking to when V rolls her eyes, "Anyways I think I'm pretty smart-"

"Impulsive."

"Cocky."

"Flirty, but you're getting better."

Tigresa didn't even nudge a reaction, only grins wider since they know that's not exactly a lie.

But as they said, Tigresa has gotten better so it hasn't been exactly a problem anymore.

Karma knows how to tighten his leash on them, and maybe not just metaphorically speaking.

"Alright so what that being said, if there's a new alter, judging by what we've seen now and the messages, any thoughts?"

Everyone ponders over Karma's questions, all the way until Taehyung sits up, "What if it's a ghost?"

"I bet it's a wall."

"Maybe it's an animal?"

Karma hums under his breath, narrowing his eyes as he observes everyone carefully, "This person is convincing in trying to be us, far too well....... Who's good at reflecting things?"

"A mirror?"

V snaps her head up, "A kid?"

Wait woah back up.

A kid?

No.

Absolutely not.

"A little?" Tigresa manages to spat in distaste, "Just what we needed. I fucking hate kids."

"Okay let's not get ahead of ourselves, it's just a theory," Karma huffs and rubs Tigresa's shoulder to calm them down, "This person provoked a fight, knows about our hearts, and is very persuasive. They don't have communication with us so they block us out when it fronts, now we have to figure out how they are triggered."

They all remain silent as they think about this but nothing comes to mind. The last thing any of them remember is the Emergancy message from Lucas, and from there it was just as though they were knocked out asleep.

It wouldn't make sense if they are triggered by emergencies since emergencies happen often, but hm..... What could it be and why now?

With a heavy sigh Karma stands up while hands interlaced with Tigresa, "Well we'll figure this out later. Now we just wait if they appear again and this time be more prepared."

Everyone agreed to this and went to their own separate ways, not noticing the pair of eyes watching them behind the kitchen island.

With a giggly smile on their face.
