coley_merrin ♥ wanted happy qmi. And then a Thought occured. Partially inspired by that time Kyu brought his laptop to a performance backstage, as shown on 여유만만 [Yeoyoomanman 2009.06.10] ("Usually, I read in the waiting room, but I'm doing this [gaming] only for today"; "Unusually, today I'm playing games.") I also do not claim to know anything about Starcraft, so correct me if I sound like a douche with the terms. :| Title thanks to
rodiy! ♥
"Kyuhyun, get off your laptop! It's your turn for makeup," ordered Eeteuk, striding over to the corner of the dressing room, hands on his hips.
"In a minute, someone else can go," Kyuhyun answered, catching words muffled through headphones and fingers still flying to build Zerg drones.
Eeteuk just frowned and shook his head, sighing, "Fine. Five minutes."
The clacking of keys paused the moment Eeteuk was far enough away from his little nook. Kyuhyun threw a few furtive side glances around before exiting his fullscreen to reveal Zhou Mi’s face in a webcam window.
He was pouting. "I don't understand why you have to hide me away when they come by," his voice whined in Kyuhyun’s ears.
"Because," Kyuhyun stated very plainly, "They are nosy people. And if one of them knows, then everyone knows."
"And what's wrong with that?" An edge of concern colored Zhou Mi’s tone, emphasized by worried creases on his forehead.
An exaggerated sigh escaped him as he asked, "Would you like to talk to them? Or me?"
When Zhou Mi still didn't seem to get it, he decided to be more forthright, "It’s too much effort to lug around my computer just for those kids to crowd around my space and wave at you uselessly like mental patients. That's my labor and our time they’re wasting."
Zhou Mi's mouth curved slowly upward. "Oh."
"Yeah. Oh is right," Kyuhyun deadpanned. He nearly seized up after taking a rapid look off to the side. “Teukie-hyung is already heading back. I have to go.”
"Oh, already?" Zhou Mi said, his good mood strangely not capable of spoiling.
“Yes, already. Wasted time explaining myself to you. I shouldn’t have to do that, you know.”
His mouth spread into a wide grin. “I’m happy. You make me happy, Kui Xian. Love you! Have fun!”
"Love you, too," he muttered with a quick smile and went back to infecting Terran command centers before Eeteuk came close enough to see.
ETA: ... wow, something not blohyuk. lol. \o/ progress.
