i get the au's justification, amidst how weird a concept of rpf can feel in the first place. i used to explain it to myself w the idea that like. the vast majority of anything we know about idol celebs is a persona, and that's really what i'm reading about? vs that i think most of these group members are actually waiting to make-out as soon as they are out of the spotlight. but i also might have just needed to feel better about being too curious to not read at least a few chapters of the literal hundreds of "soshi's house of classic horror" 👀

assassin aus do somehow feel less intrusive than college roommate crushes? let alone "what happened backstage after that moment from this tour fancam". but i also came from second gen kpop when people would mega uncomfortably ask idols to read smut of themselves live on radio SO i might be jaded to where the line of appropriate or grounded is.

i do really hope you have fun w your au tho! haha
