To make things very brief, the nerf gun battle was absolute chaos.

Since there was any even amount of them, they all agreed to do teams—well, Yoongi did argue, because he was still a little drunk and was quite fond of the idea of taking everyone out with no mercy, but then he was struck with the realization that would mean turning against Jimin and he wasn't about to do that, slightly drunk or no.

Then again, that would only have been able to happen if Yoongi were to last that long. And he didn't.

In the first three minutes of chaos Yoongi did manage to get Seokjin out, but as he maniacally laughed at his friend's demise, Jungkook shot his velcro vest from the back.

"A hundred points, that's an instant K.O."

And so sulky Yoongi ended up sitting in a corner for the rest of the game.

Which, to everyone's surprise, was won by Jimin, but this was only due to him running and hiding every time someone came into view.

Dance Dance Revolution was equally as chaotic. Despite their confidence, the four dance majors, ironically, did the worst, and all four of them blamed the game for having ridiculous moves that either didn't sync up or were way too slow and boring to match the music.

Yoongi just called it 'them being sulky', to which Jungkook responded, 'so were you when I shot you in the back.'

A fight nearly broke out. To deter this, Namjoon eagerly suggested they move on to the whisper challenge.

Which, of course, was anything but whispering.

Fast forward and they were all lined up, sitting down, with Namjoon at one end trying to clearly pronounce 'onion bagel' to his clueless boyfriend who was listening to very loud music.

"Bunion cradle??"

"On. Yun. Bay. Gull."

"....shower gel?"

"Onion bagel."

"Young gazelle! I got it!!"

And so Jin excitedly spun around to slap Hoseok's shoulder and deliver the horribly misheard words.

"Young gazelle!"

"Clientele."

"Young. Gazelle."

"Clientele."

"Young. Guh-zelle."

"...clientele."

He gave up. So it went on to Yugyeom, who didn't even pick up the 'el' sound which had been there from the beginning. Instead, he somehow turned it into 'rock climber', and from there on out it got worse, arriving at the ending result from Jimin, which was 'carbonara'.

"Onion bagel. Jin, I love you, but how on earth did you get bunion cradle out of that, first of all."

"It rhymes!!"

"I wasn't connecting my lips to make the 'b' sound! It couldn't possibly have been 'bunion'!"

"I don't think Jin knows how to play the game-"

"I do, too, shut up, Jungkook."

"You're just salty 'cus this is the fourth game in a row you've done terribly on."

"Jungkook, he literally scored higher than you on Dance Dance Revolution-"

"Did anyone ask you, Mr. Park Last Place?"

"Okay, that's it, the sleeves are being rolled up."

"Yes."

"Oh my gosh, Yoongi."

Once again, to avoid another potential fight, Namjoon quickly changed the subject by suggesting they all begin the next activity, hair dyeing. And several of them were a bit puzzled, as they all assumed that would be saved for last, but Namjoon insisted he wanted to save charades for last. Seeing as he was the host, his decision was final.

With that, the second to last activity began. Namjoon, with the help of Jin and Jungkook, set out all the materials they would need for the dyeing, which was a lot more than some of them expected. But Namjoon did his research, which meant he would have to instruct the other seven children present—at least, he thought, but apparently Yugyeom had experience dyeing his own hair at home before so he could assist in the instructing.

As mentioned before, Yoongi would be exempt from the hair dyeing, as he had only just recently dyed his mint green. But everyone else had to go through with it.

"I bought several different colors," Namjoon announced. "You guys did say 'surprise me' so no one can get mad if they're stuck with something they don't like."

"What are our options?" Jin asked curiously, but also worriedly.

"Black, blonde, red, pink, and several different shades of brown."

"Pink? For real?"

"Interesting..."

"Can we do rock paper scissors, and the loser has to choose pink?

"What's so bad about pink?" Jimin shrugged. "I'll do it."

Yoongi just smiled crookedly as Jimin observed the bottle Namjoon now handed him. "You'll look cute as f**k."

Jimin just giggled.

As for the rest of them, Taehyung eagerly chose red, Hoseok and Yugyeom chose different shades of brown, Jungkook and Namjoon both took black, and Jin chose blonde.

And it was a bit of a hassle to complete the process, but a fun hassle. And they managed to get through it without any serious incidents. So that was a major success in their books.

Not only that, but they were all quite satisfied with the finished results. Even Jimin, who, though he liked the color pink, wasn't entirely certain how it would look on him.

"Absolutely adorable," as Yoongi described. "Cutie. You...Jimin, come here, sweetheart."

"Does it look okay?"

"Absolutely, did you think I was kidding?"

Jimin smiled, shaking his head as he sat down next to Yoongi who had been sitting on the couch for the entirety of the hair dyeing process. There, he caressed Jimin's cheek, then ran his fingers through the boy's hair.

"Jimin wins."

"He's not one of the contestants," Namjoon reminded him.

"Don't care. You all lose. Jimin looks the best." Yoongi then gave him a kiss on the lips, emphasizing the 'mwah' sound purely because he thought it would make Jimin laugh. And it did.

Even though Yoongi wasn't really giving them any attention, the rest of the group gave one another genuine compliments on their new looks, stressed more, obviously, among the couples.

After about fifteen minutes, it was finally decided that they would start the final game: charades. Once again, the teams were split up with Namjoon and Jin, Jimin and Yoongi, Taehyung and Jungkook, and Yugyeom and Hoseok, who offered to go first.

Hoseok stepped up to do the acting, while Yugyeom was the poorly chosen guesser of the two.

The phrase was scuba diving.

Yugyeom's guesses included: Finding Nemo, looking for treasure, 50,000 Leagues Under the Sea, and 'I have literally no idea what you're doing, Hobi.'

"Two words, Yugi. Two words."

"Finding Nemo was two words."

" 'Fifty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea?' "

"I'm sorry!"

As it turned out, Jimin and Yoongi, who went next, were impressively on the same level and got each other's charades fairly easily, which partially could have been due to Yoongi still feeling the after effects of the alcohol shots, and thus causing him to be a bit more expressive in his actions than he normally would in a game he disliked. But it was fun with Jimin. The only one that really threw them off was the word 'English' and Jimin kept on pointing to Namjoon, whereas this only made Yoongi convinced the answer was either 'dumb' or 'walnut'.

Taehyung and Jungkook were also on the same page and pretty much sped through charade after charade, knocking the previous two contestants a notch below them on the boards.

Then, at last, it was Namjoon and Seokjin. Jin sat comfortably on the edge of the couch and watched as his boyfriend picked up a card, glanced at it for a split second, then put it down. And he took a deep breath.

Two words.

"Two words? Okay, first word. Uhhh..."

Namjoon attempted to imitate a famous actor from a movie both he and Jin knew. It took a while, but eventually he was able guess it, rather, just the first name. For the second word, Namjoon pointed a slightly shaking finger at Jin.

"Me? Or...oh! Okay, 'you'...Will you..."

Next thing he knew Namjoon had gotten down on one knee. And Jin was too caught up in the atmosphere of the game to realize that this was no longer part of the game, until his boyfriend pulled out a small box and opened it to reveal the words 'marry me?' written on a piece of paper taped above a small golden band.

And then it hit. And everyone was silent at first and watched as Seokjin tried to hold himself together and not fall apart at this sudden and unexpected proposal — to say the very least.

"Namjoon, you...you swear you're not just messing with me right now?"

The other just smiled warmly, gaze softening as Jin unsteadily rose from the couch to get closer to him.

"I wouldn't joke about something like this. You know that, right?"

It was such a struggle not to cry. He did, before long, but not before a tear spilled silently over Yoongi's eyelid.

"I'll have you know, I thought about this for a while. I'm not just rushing into it," Namjoon clarified, tenderly taking hold of Jin's hand. "It's been on my mind, and a friend of mine once told me that I shouldn't be worried about reaching a milestone in dating or anything or the sort. Just as long as I know how I feel about you. And I know how I feel about you. The wedding itself can wait till we're both done with college, of course, but I wanted to ask you now..."

The black hair on Namjoon wasn't what Jin was used to seeing, but the look in those eyes was all the same, the pure love and consideration they held.

"Will you marry me, Jin?"

It was quite an impact of emotion on the entire room, especially as Jin gave that assuring nod, sniffled, and barely allowed Namjoon to slip the engagement ring onto his hand before pulling him into a hug.

No one was loud, oddly enough. Hoseok and Yoongi both glanced at each other, and Hoseok was close enough to see the other's misty eyes. Jimin, of course, noticed them and tried wiping the tears away while at the same time congratulating his two friends.

Then there was Jungkook and Taehyung, who joined Namjoon and Jin in their warm embrace, which then in turn prompted Hoseok and Yugyeom to join the hug, and then finally Jimin. Yoongi stayed, though. Until the group dispersed. And he, personally, walked up to Namjoon and put his arms around him, pulling him close.

And Yoongi was still just a little drunk. Even if he hadn't been, though, the tears more than likely still would have been there, except right now Yoongi cared not a bit to try to hide them. So he just cried for a bit on Namjoon's shoulder as his friend patted him on the back.

"Cruel bastard, not telling me..."

Namjoon stifled a laugh. "I'm sorry, Yoongs," he whispered. "I wanted it to be a surprise to you, too."

"I'll kill you once I'm entirely sober again. Right now my legs feel like soggy udon. But I'll kill you."

"...can't that wait t-"

"No. You dumb walnut."

"Alright, alright, sorry for asking."
