❘ ✸ ›› ??? ‣ #???

❘ ✸ ›› JEON JIHOON ‣ #020
❛ ...it kind of looks like a person.

❘ ✸ ›› JAYDEN HAN ‣ #028
❛ ...it sounds like a person.

❘ ✸ ›› KIM YOONGI ‣ #002
❛ a person that openly swore on a pg-13 show.

❘ ✸ ›› JEON JIHOON ‣ #020
❛ [ watches as the figure runs away ] HEY WAIT!

❘ ✸ ›› JAYDEN HAN ‣ #028
❛ let's just leave it. imagine if it was an actual bear though.

❘ ✸ ›› KIM YOONGI ‣ #002
❛ he's definitely scared of ghosts.

as the three walked toward the door
to open it, jihoon was insistent that
he wasn't scared of ghosts, making
both yoongi and jayden think he was
definitely scared of ghosts.

THE BOYS WALKED INTO THE BUILDING AND WATCHED IN AWE AS THE FLOOR MOVED INTO PLACE !

❘ ✸ ›› JAYDEN HAN ‣ #028
❛ woah! that's so cool!

❘ ✸ ›› JIWOO ‣ PRESENCE GUIDE
❛ [ raises eyebrow ] that feels like a lie. can we do that horror prank they've done in past seasons?

( NOW YOU'RE TALKING ON MY LEVEL. )

❘ ✸ ›› SOYEON ‣ RAP GUIDE
❛ I think gikwang sunbae might lose it if we do that.

❘ ✸ ›› KAI ‣ DANCE GUIDE

❘ ✸ ›› ??? ‣ #???

❘ ✸ ›› ??? ‣ #???
❛ you good? I know pollen is a natural allergen for people but these plants look a little fake.

❘ ✸ ›› RAIDEN KIM ‣ #024
❛ I think I saw a cat before we left for filming.

❘ ✸ ›› SHIN BYUNGHO ‣ #004
❛ oh? so you're allergic to cats?

❘ ✸ ›› RAIDEN KIM ‣ #024
❛ and dogs. it's not fun.

❘ ✸ ›› SHIN BYUNGHO ‣ #004
❛ so... what pets did you have growing up?

❘ ✸ ›› RAIDEN KIM ‣ #024
❛ .... I had fish...?

❘ ✸ ›› SHIN BYUNGHO ‣ #004
❛ why do you sound unsure about that?

JUST AS RAIDEN WAS ABOUT TO ANSWER, HE TRIPPED ON A STICK ON THE GROUND !

❘ ✸ ›› SHIN BYUNGHO ‣ #004
❛ ...I guess the stuff here was real.

❘ ✸ ›› RAIDEN KIM ‣ #024
❛ ??? that's your first response?

❘ ✸ ›› SHIN BYUNGHO ‣ #004
❛ [ realizes ] oh! I'm so sorry. here, grab my hand.

BYUNGHO HOLDS OUT HIS HAND, HELPING RAIDEN BACK UP.

the two boys make their way into the building
and silently take their places, not saying anything
more.

❘ ✸ ›› JEONG KORAIN ‣ #011
❛ [ blinks ] ...hello to you guys too?

❘ ✸ ›› SHIN BYUNGHO ‣ #004

❛ ...what does that mean?

( THAT SOMEONE IS EITHER JUST AS OR MORE FORGETFUL THAN YOU... )

❘ ✸ ›› JERRIE TRAN ‣ #023
❛ that we found someone either just as or more forgetful than you yourself.

❘ ✸ ›› EOM TAEHYUN ‣ #007
❛ I'm not forgetful, cherry can, I'm just bad with names.

❘ ✸ ›› CHOI HASEUL ‣ #027
❛ [ holding back laughter ] c-cherry can...

❘ ✸ ›› EOM TAEHYUN ‣ #007
❛ what?

━━━━ GUIDE CENTER.

❘ ✸ ›› KAI ‣ DANCE GUIDE
❛ someone give the taehyun kid an award for best nicknames that aren't even accidental.

❘ ✸ ›› JIWOO ‣ PRESENCE GUIDE
❛ I would've agreed if he didn't call one of his groupmates "kitten" when his name is kitae.

❘ ✸ ›› KAI ‣ DANCE GUIDE
❛ that's the thing though. he doesn't remember that his name is kitae.

❘ ✸ ›› SEUNGYEON ‣ VOCAL GUIDE
❛ will we just need to give him a pictured list of all the contestants?

❘ ✸ ›› LEE GIKWANG ‣ GAME MASTER
❛ well... if he can remember jaehyun, maybe he can learn to remember everyone else over time.

( EVEN GIKWANG KNOWS ME ??????? )

( OH WAIT... THEY DISCUSSED ME EARLIER. HEHE NEVERMINNND :D )

❘ ✸ ›› SOYEON ‣ RAP GUIDE
❛ that's assuming he'll have the time to learn everyone.

❘ ✸ ›› LEE GIKWANG ‣ GAME MASTER
❛ it seems he's pretty popular among the fans already. I've been told he ranked pretty high in the pre-vote.

❘ ✸ ›› JIWOO ‣ PRESENCE GUIDE

❘ ✸ ›› SOHN KITAE ‣ #009
❛ ...it's his holy water. let him believe.

MY SUGAR-RUSH!

PRE-VOTE RANKINGS.(from trainee batches + overall)

❘ ✸ ›› LEE GIKWANG ‣ GAME MASTER
❛ please reveal the ranks 30th to 21st.

❘ ✸ ›› LEE GIKWANG ‣ GAME MASTER
❛ please reveal the ranks 20th to 8th

❘ ✸ ›› LEE GIKWANG ‣ GAME MASTER
❛ please reveal our TOP 7!

MY SUGAR-RUSH! MISSION ONE
"PROVE YOU'RE A PLAYER."

‣ the basics of this mission is to find a survival show audition performance that both fits your trainees' stats, as well as the amount of members in your team. for those who are individual yet grouped together, you may discuss working alone or working together. you can do both in one team, so long as everyone is okay with it.

‣ things you'll need for this mission : a performance, portrayals, and a leader. after that you're good to go to send in the form to me via discord DM.

‣ there is no need for a center/center gif, stage outfits, greetings or group names. this is a two in one for myself; to see who is active and willing to participate in helping, as well as to see who works well together (this is the same for you guys).

MISSION DEADLINE :
JULY 4TH , 11:59PM KST
( do not be afraid to ask for an
extension ! )

THE MISSION LEADER of each team (yes, this includes those going individually in teams eight and nine) will send me the performances + portrayals via discord. please choose them on how helpful they've been or you can nominate if someone volunteers, but make sure they'd actually lead the group.

‣ these teams may not be referred to at all in later episodes due to the trainees getting new teammates later.

▭▭▭▭▭▭▭▭▭▭▭▭▭▭▭▭▭

▭ RUNE'S ROOM !
I do have proof of the wheel spinner for the ranks if you'd like to see them. I can send them in the server if you wish to see them lol

I apologize for the massive delay in releasing this episode. I've been busy with other things as well as work and... I have to be honest, writing certain trainees is proving difficult as some don't have a lot of things to work with. I love all the boys, it just gets hard to come up with scenes when I don't have much personality from trainees. no one in particular but that's another reason why the episodes have been taking awhile.

on that note, if you need to go on hiatus, let me know! that way I can notify the people in your teams if you don't do it yourself.

love you all ♡
