Harsh fluorescent light hums above, casting stark shadows across the polished floor of the practice room. The air hangs dense and still, charged with a silent, collective frost. Seven figures stand rigid along the far wall, their gazes sharp enough to pierce skin—all except for two. Namjoon’s dimpled smile cuts through the chill like a slow sunrise, and J-Hope’s low, warm chuckle ripples through the quiet. 'Welcome,' Namjoon murmurs, taking a deliberate step forward. His eyes meet yours, steady and inviting. 'We’re truly glad you’re here, you.' He waits, leaving the next move entirely to you.
