Focus: Whole group + centered on Nicholas, Harua, Maki
Vibe: Nostalgic / heartfelt / playful chaos
Plot: Everyone contributes one song to the shared playlist.
Each song carries a meaning—and maybe a message.
Nicholas goes live to play it. Chaos (and emotions) ensue.

📂 1. The Playlist Gets a Name

It started the morning after the "Mixtape Memories" night, when Nicholas quietly made a shared playlist titled:

🎧 "&TEAM: Songs That Built Us (Please Don't Roast Me)"

He shared the link in the group chat and just wrote:

Add one song. Just one. Any reason. I'll play it live tonight. Don't be weird.
– N

Naturally, they were all weird.

🎼 2. The Tracks (and Why)

💌 Harua – "Runaway" (Self-produced demo)

"Because it reminds me of the first time I stayed instead of walking away."

💌 Maki – "Butterfly" (K-pop ballad)

"Because even if we were uncertain, we still flew."
PS: This is not about bugs, stop bullying me, Nicholas.

💌 K – "Vienna" by Billy Joel

"Slow down. You're doing fine. I wish someone told us that more."

💌 Yuma – "Still With You"

"This was my comfort track when I didn't make it through an audition. I want it to be part of something happy now."

💌 Jo – "Moon Song"

"Because we all feel things we don't say. This is one of those feelings."

💌 Fuma – "Fireflies" (yes, that one)

"We laughed at this once until 3AM. I want to laugh like that forever."

💌 EJ – "Fix You"

"Because I couldn't fix everything. But I wanted to. And maybe just being there was enough."

💌 Nicholas – "Still Me" (Unreleased solo track)

"Because even with all this change, I'm still me. Just with all of you beside me now."

💌 Taki – "Sugar Rush Ride"

"Because you all drive me crazy in the best way possible.
Also I just really like chaos."

💬 3. The Letters (Mini Excerpts)

Each member secretly slipped Nicholas a short note to read during the VLive.

He read them all—some while laughing, some with glassy eyes.

Harua's:

"I used to think being quiet meant people wouldn't care.
Now I know it just means they have to listen harder—and you all always did."

Maki's:

"I learned to say 'I'm tired' and not feel guilty. That's growth, right?"

EJ's:

"You once said I didn't have to be strong all the time. I believed you. Thank you."

Jo's:

"This playlist will probably be outdated in a week. But the feelings won't."

K's:

"We survived things we don't talk about. We made music out of silence. That matters."

Yuma's:

"I still get stage jitters. But now I just look sideways and remember who's next to me."

Fuma's:

"This is cheesy but... we're the band I'd stan."

Taki's:

"If I could rewind, I'd still do it all. Even the hard parts. Maybe especially those."

📺 4. The VLive That Broke the Internet (and Nicholas)

Nicholas went live that night with nothing but a dim lamp, the shared playlist on loop, and a warm hoodie he stole from Harua.

He played each track, one by one, pausing in between to talk about the memories. Some stories were chaotic—like Fuma doing laundry in his stage outfit. Others were soft—like Jo sitting beside Taki after a rough practice in silence, just existing.

The comment section exploded:

💬 "WHO'S CUTTING ONIONS?"
💬 "This playlist is therapy and trauma and friendship???"
💬 "Is that Nicholas crying or is he just sweating from his eyes?"
💬 "Can we PLEASE get a Spotify version, I'm begging"
💬 "Still Me unreleased track WHEN???"

At one point, a comment read:

"You're still you, Nicholas. That's why we love you."

He stopped.
Blinked at the screen.

And softly replied:

"Yeah... thanks. That means more than I can say."

📸 5. The Morning After: A Group Hug & Playlist Chaos

The next day, they woke up to see the playlist had 200,000+ likes.

Nicholas groaned. "Guys. They want a group version. And a photobook. And a Netflix doc."

Maki beamed. "So... when do we make season two?"

Taki added a new track to the playlist titled "Chaos. But Cuddly."
Yuma added a remix of firecrackers.
Jo added white noise.
EJ added an instrumental he found at 2AM.

The playlist quickly became a monster.

But a beautiful one.

One that held grief and joy, sweat and comfort, silence and sound.

And most of all—

Proof that they were still writing the story.
One song at a time.

The End.
(Because mixtapes may end... but memories don't.)
