disclaimer: this au will have a social media feature. the whole au will mostly be writing, but yeah i thought it'd be fun

also, time stamps on tweets don't matter!!

jungkook scrolled through the responses, writing some of them down and cringing at the others. a lot of his fans are childish. but what can he say, they get their childish behavior from him.

a lot of people seemed to like taehyung's idea, so he decided to look into it more. after doing some research on the shop his hyung mentioned, he found out it was open monday to friday from 9am-6pm. it was a thursday afternoon, and he needed to get this video out by sunday.

so, with a spring in his step, he went to catch the bus to pay this antique shop a visit.

jungkook pulled out google maps when he finally made it downtown. the shop was only a five minute walk away, which caused a bunny smile to appear on the boy's face.

the sun beamed rays of light jungkook's direction, but there was a slight breeze to cool him down. the sky was completely clear, and the streets were filled. the sound of laughing children filled his ears, they seemed to be playing a game of tag. the brunette was about to take a sip from his water bottle, but saw a struggling old man on the side of the road. he bent down and gave the man a ten dollar bill, as well as his water bottle.

the man widened his eyes in disbelief, and jungkook smiled. the latter started praising thank you's, telling jungkook he's a gift from god. jungkook declined, saying he was just happy to help. with that, he continued his journey until he saw a small shop, with the words 'JM's Antique' in cursive.

when he entered the building, a bell was chimed, and the man behind the counter shot up in surprise.

"hello, sir! how's your day? looking for something in particular?" jungkook met eyes with the young man. he had blue-silver hair, a small frame, small nose, and full lips. he had a brown apron tied around his thin waist and neck, a white cuffed long sleeve underneath. his skin glowed, and jungkook swore he saw lip gloss coated on the man's lips.

he was beautiful.

"u-um hi! my day's fine, thank you. and no... i'll know what i'm looking for when i find it!" jungkook giggled nervously, scratching the back of his head.

"okay, well i'll leave you to it. if you need help, i'm right here!" the shop owner, jimin as the name tag read, said. he walked to the other side of the store, carrying a large box.

jungkook sighed in relief as he left, and went to walk around. there was a lot of old furniture and mirrors. he would definitely want to come here another time.

when jungkook went to check the price of one of the makeup mirrors, he heard a crash at the back of the store.

immediately he ran towards the noise, and saw jimin on the ground, a bunch of precious items burying him.

"are you alright?!" jungkook yelled, worry painted on his face.

"um yeah," jimin shyly smiled, lifting up his round glasses that had slid down the bridge of his nose.

"here, let me help you," jungkook sighed, picking up the objects that had fallen. "where do you want these?"

"anywhere it fits on the shelf is fine..." jimin groaned, embarrassed that he had been clumsy in front of a handsome man. "thank you." he whispered softly.

"hey, it's no problem. i'm just glad you're not hurt," jungkook shared a smile that showcased his bunny teeth, causing the elder to blush deeply.

"ahah, yeah," jimin chuckled awkwardly as jungkook helped him stand up. "ah thanks again." jimin dusted off his clothes.

"it was my-." jungkook stopped as he stared at an object behind jimin. the elder turned around, curious on what the younger was staring at, but also curious on what he was about to say.

"that's it!" jungkook shouted with joy.

"what's it?!" jimin yelled back, a hint of fear in his voice.

"the music box! i want it," jungkook grinned, snatching it from behind the elder, not even caring to check the price.

"o-oh okay! is that all for today?" the shop owner asked the gentleman, returning a smile. jungkook looked up at him for a second, seeing his smile reach his eyes and his cheeks puffed up.

"yes, sir," jungkook nodded, following jimin to the front desk.

"i'll give you a discount since you helped me today. and please, call me jimin," jimin held out his hand, jungkook grabbing it firmly.

"a-ah i'm jungkook," the younger replied, stuttering due to the smaller's warm hand.

"nice to meet you, jungkook! can i call you kookie? i hope to see you here again!" jimin said as he safely packed jungkook's item.

"yeah, i'd like that, jimin. and i'll definitely be back!" now it was jungkook's turn to smile with his eyes.

they both blushed.

"well, have a good day, kookie!"

"you too, jiminie!"

as soon as jungkook got home, he got out his supplies and set up his camera. he had already been thinking of a design for the the antique. he felt kind of bad for fixing up something so precious, but it was for a video and hopefully it'd turn out well.

eventually he started filming. jungkook introduced the idea and plan, before starting.

"since i'm going to have to prime the box, i'll have to take out the drawers and handles," jungkook said, before carefully opening the compartment. suddenly he saw sparkly dust erupt, and heard a soft sneeze. in fright, he chucked the music box across the room, knocking over and breaking his expensive camera.

"ahh shit!" jungkook cried, staring at the smashed camera on the floor. "what the fuck was in there? and did i kill it!" before jungkook could move to check the box, he saw a tiny figure fly across the room. suddenly the figure fell on the table, yelping in pain.

jungkook could only watch in awe and confusion as the tiny man stood up and dusted his clothes.

"oh my," the fairy yawned. "i've been trapped in there for years."

"what?" jungkook questioned, now moving to sit near the table. "what are you?"

the figure furrowed his eyebrows before moving closer to the human. "i'm a fairy duh. look at my wings." the fairy pointed at his clear, sparkly, delicate wings.

"i- must be dreaming," jungkook felt like he could faint. this wasn't real. this couldn't be real. fairies don't exist.

"this is a prank! kim taehyung i swear to god! you made me break my fucking camera!" the fairy flinched at the screaming, covering his tiny ears with his laced hands.

"can you calm down!" the fairy cried, pouting and crossing his arms.

that was kind of cute.

"me? calm down? i'm talking to a fairy!" jungkook groaned, glaring at the petite figure.

"yeah okay but your screaming hurts me!" jungkook widened his doe eyes in shock, immediately shutting up.

"i know this is hard to take in," the fairy said, flying up to face jungkook. "but i've just woken up from a hundred year sleep and i need to process things too."

jungkook put out his palm for the fairy to stand on so he could take a closer look. the fairy wore a blue flowy dress, despite being a male. the dress had transparent sleeves that exposed his collarbones and had lose cuffs. it was also covered in sparkles and tied with a black string around his waist. he had a short hairstyle that exposed his forehead, silver locks. he had glittery makeup, lip gloss similar to jimin's. his nails had a clear glossy coat, some of them having white floral designs. he had black flats, and blue flowers climbing up his calves. his wings were a clear colour, but went holographic in the light. they fit his body right, not too big or too small. whenever he moves them, tiny dust particles would trail behind. this fairy was absolutely beautiful.

"what's your name?" jungkook spoke up after awkwardly checking out the smaller for a solid five minutes.

"i- uh- i'm namjoon," namjoon was flustered by the youngers gaze. he felt like he was being judged.

"well hi, namjoon. i'm jungkook," jungkook stuck out his pinky finger for namjoon to grab. the smaller shook it gently.

"so, little fella, where do you want to be set free?" jungkook asked in a higher voice, as if he were talking to a kid.

"set free? you're letting me go?" namjoon asked in a sadder tone.

"well yeah, what else am i supposed to do?" jungkook asked, eyebrows furrowed.

"keep me! y-you're my owner now!" namjoon pleaded, bouncing on jungkook's hand with his fairy feet.

"what? that sounds wrong, namjoon. i can't own a fairy!" jungkook whined, letting his head fall.

"well maybe you shouldn't have purchased that music box," namjoon scoffed, crossing his arms again.

jungkook has to admit the fairy was one of the most beautiful things he's seen, but he didn't like the idea of keeping him as a pet.

"whatever. i don't even know how to take care of you! i should just sell that music box," jungkook whispered the last part to himself, but namjoon heard.

namjoon now has tears filling his eyes, hurt that jungkook didn't want him.

jungkook looked down to see the fairy's shoulders bouncing violently, glittery waterfalls escaping his eyes.

"hey, please don't cry," jungkook sighed, picking up the fairy and patting his head. "i just- need time to process everything."

the fairy's tears stopped at the warm touch of the younger. he smiled widely, showing his dimples that jungkook swore were illegal.

"i'll let you think and i can take care of myself. i hope we can be best friends!" namjoon laughed, flying out of the room to give jungkook space.

"i must've been hit on the head real hard as a child."
