━━━━━ episode 𝟭, part two






part two of episode one
greetings, players







oh, finally! that ad was long! let's skip back a few seconds...

The screen shows a person standing in the same area the hosts previously had been stood at, obviously entirely blurred out. Geumie's voice can then be heard.


GEUMIEhost ◢
Welcome to our first specialist...





GEUMIEhost
... the vocal focused trainer and judge....





GEUMIEhost
It's Wendy Son of Red Velvet!

WENDYspecialist
Hello! I'm Wendy and I'm one of the vocal specialists! I look forward to meeting the trainees!


Wendy walks over to the circle table where she then sits down, waving slightly to the hosts and camera. 


GEUMIEhost
It's the one and only Wendy Son! How crazy is that?

WENDY ✶ specialist ◢
Ah, don't call me 'the one and only', makes me sound so special!

GEUMIEhost ◢
You are special!

YURIco-host
And you're an amazing singer!

CHARLIEco-host
And you're Canadian!
(english)


a short silence fills the room.


WENDYspecialist
One of those statements are not like the others...

YURIco-host
I guess we're all just excited about different things! Geumie thinks you're special, I think you're an amazing singer, and Charlie thinks you're Canadian! Or, knows, I guess.

WENDYspecialist
I mean... I only lived in Canada for a few years so I'm not even Canadian...

CHARLIEco-host
Oh, come on! I need another English speaker on the team!
(english)

WENDYspecialist
I speak English so I can still be that for you!
(english)

CHARLIEco-host
Thank you sunbaenim~

GEUMIEhost
Let's get back on track, shall we?

CHARLIEco-host
Right, sorry!


GEUMIEhost
Now, back to what I was going to talk about earlier... Wendy, how do you think the trainees are going to react to seeing you on the panel of specialists?

WENDYspecialist
Oh, that's a pretty big question...  But I'm guessing there's going to be a lot of freak-outs?

GEUMIEhost
Yeah?

WENDYspecialist
I mean, I've been in the industry for quite a few years at this point and judging by the fact that a lot of the idols I've met have called me one or my group one of their inspirations... I'm just guessing that a lot of trainees have the same view on us!

CHARLIEco-host
When I was a trainee I freaked at the sheer thought of existing near an actual idol so... I'm guessing you're right. 

WENDYspecialist
That's what I'm saying!

YURIco-host
You are also an amazing singer! So... yeah!


GEUMIEhost
Hate to break up a good conversation, but I think we should try to keep this whole introduction thing on a steady flow, so how about we welcome our second specialist?

CHARLIE ✶ co-host
Mm... give us a hint on who it is first!

GEUMIEhost
Yeah? Okay, that sounds fun!


Geumie pauses to think about hints, while the other three all stare at her... waiting for her to give them the hints. Of course it's mainly the viewers and Charlie who know absolutely nothing.


GEUMIEhost
They're someone with a great voice and a talent for writing...

CHARLIEco-host
That really.. um, doesn't help..

GEUMIEhost
I also think that Charlie, you've collabed with them?

CHARLIEco-host
What?

GEUMIEhost
Maybe...? I dont know... you tell me!

CHARLIEco-host
That also doesn't shorten the list down though...

GEUMIEhost
We'll just... let them introduce themselves, I don't know what other hints to give that isn't like straight up saying their group or name..!

CHARLIEco-host
Let's see who it is then!


One of those cute little typical transition animations plays, and then we're shown our next specialist, blurred out as before, sitting in the seat next to Charlie. They turn to the rest of the cast before waving at the camera.





????specialist
Good morning everyone!

SOYEONspecialist
Ouh, wait, does that really date this?

YURIco-host
I don't think so, no.

CHARLIEco-host
Nah, good morning!

GEUMIEhost
Yeah, doesn't date it! Only.. times... it? Eh, good morning unnie!

WENDYspecialist
Hi!


GEUMIEhost
You can go ahead and introduce yourself!

SOYEONspecialist
Right!

SOYEONspecialist
I'm Jeon Soyeon, leader and main rapper as well as main producer for girl group (G)I-Dle! 

SOYEONspecialist
Oh and if it wasn't obvious, I'm a rap trainer slash judge!

GEUMIEhost
The producers are calling you guys specialists!

SOYEONspecialist
Ohhh, makes sense!


Charlie turns to talk directely to Geumie. 


CHARLIEco-host
Geumie, I don't think you know me...

GEUMIEhost
Hm?

CHARLIEco-host
Your hints, me and Soyeon havent done a collab?

GEUMIEhost
What? But I thought you were friends?

CHARLIEco-host
Well.. yes, we are, we just haven't done a project together.

GEUMIEhost
Seriously? I for sure thought you'd produced something together...

SOYEONspecialist
Oh my god, we should though!

GEUMIEhost
Right?! You two seem like you should!

CHARLIEco-host
You think?

GEUMIEhost
Absolutely!

SOYEONspecialist
I'll send you a text about this later, yeah?

CHARLIEco-host
Okay, yeah, sounds good! Thank you!


GEUMIEhost
Once again, I feel like it's time for us to introduce another specialist, what do you guys think?

WENDYspecialist
Yes!

YURIco-host
Yes, I want to meet them!

SOYEONspecialist
What skill specialist is it? Or is it secret?

GEUMIEhost
It's a dance specialist!

CHARLIEco-host
Cool!

GEUMIEhost
Very cool.


Geumie winks at the camera, and right after the camera changes to show the area they've all entered from. As before, they're completely blurred out.


GEUMIEhost
Welcome!

????specialist
Thank you!

GEUMIEhost
No, thank you!


They make their way over to the table and sit down opposite to Geumie.


????specialist
So I just.. say my name?

GEUMIEhost
Pretty much!

????specialist
Okay!

TAEMINspecialist
Well... hi! I'm Taemin of SHINee!

GEUMIEhost
I told you, very cool!

◤ YURI ✶ co-host
Oh my god..!

TAEMINspecialist
What?

◤ CHARLIE ✶ co-host
We can all agree that the trainees are gonna go crazy over the line-up of guides, right?

SOYEONspecialist
For sure.

YURIco-host
Oh yeah, definetly!

TAEMINspecialist
I'm really not following... 


[producer note: 😔😔]


GEUMIEhost
Welcome to the show!

TAEMINspecialist
Thanks... again?

GEUMIEhost
Oh, right, I already welcomed you... 

GEUMIEhost
Well, um, do you want to... introduce the next specialist instead? 

TAEMINspecialist
Sure!


TAEMINspecialist
So, here we have our fourth specialist and our second rap specialist!

TAEMINspecialist
I guess also final rap specialist since it's two of each...

TAEMINspecialist
Anyways!

TAEMINspecialist
Welcome in, mysterious rapper, specially handpicked by our producers...



The specialist is shown, stood back in that "walking in" area, where they silently wave at the camera. Then, they walk on over to the table and sits down next to Soyeon.


????specialist
Hello..

YOONGIspecialist
..I'm SUGA of BTS! I'm joining this show as a trainer and judge.

CHARLIEco-host
Oh.. wow... Back to what I just said, the trainees are gonna go crazy over the line-up

SOYEONspecialist
Don't forget the viewers!


Soyeon points at the camera after which the people sitting around her turn to face the camera. (dude... you're being pointed at...)


YOONGIspecialist
It's... gonna be fun to be a specialist here I think!

TAEMINspecialist
Yeah, I agree!

WENDYspecialist
I really really look forward to meeting the trainees...

YOONGIspecialist
Mhm!


Yoongi nods and does a thumbs up at the others. 


YURIco-host
Now.. isn't it funny how both of our rap specialists are also producers... 

CHARLIEco-host
Yeah.. can I join the crew guys, please?

GEUMIEhost
Do you think you'd be a good rap specialist?

CHARLIEco-host
I dont know if that's an insult or not...

GEUMIEhost
Well, I mean, do you?

CHARLIEco-host
Yeah! I'll have you know that I've been called an all-rounder online several times!

YURIco-host
... Congrats?

CHARLIEco-host
Hey!

GEUMIEhost
Oh actually... what skill would we be specialists for?

YURIco-host
I'm guessing I'll be put in the vocalist section?

GEUMIEhost
Totally, yes.

WENDYspecialist
Yay!

SOYEONspecialist
Hmm... I vote we get Charlie then!

CHARLIEco-host
Aw, really?


Charlie puts a hand over her heart and does one of those omg really 🥺 faces, to which both Geumie and Yuri are shown cringing.


SOYEONspecialist
You're a producer and a rapper which apparently  fits the criteria so... yes!

YOONGIspecialist
We'll take you in, sure.


TAEMINspecialist
And then... Geumie, you join dance!

GEUMIEhost
I'm not a great dancer though...

YURIco-host
Oh shut up! Geumie! 

YURIco-host
Producers, show her dancing! Right now!


[producer note: okay 🫡]

a speed-up video compilation, credited so a tiktoker called "geuriluvv", of random Geumie dance focus parts is shown.


YURIco-host
Producers, thank you!

TAEMINspecialist
Yeah, I want you in the dancer category!

GEUMIEhost
Oh– okay! Thank you, sunbae!


Yuri is shown laughing at her friend, which Geumie glares at her for. There is a time-skip, where it seems a few minutes has been edited out, and now we're shown Geumie in focus again.


GEUMIEhost
Oookay! Next specialist, welcome in!




a new person, once again blurred out, walks in. 


????specialist
Finally!

????specialist
Thank you though, thank you!

????specialist
Oooo, this is gonna be so fun actually...

????specialist
Okay, okay, wait! Let me do a little intro..!



their face is unblurred as they wave, smile and does a little teeny bit of aegyo.


CHUNGHAspecialist
I'm Kim Chungha, soloist and former member of ioi! I'm here as a dance specialist, and, well.. I dont know, I really look forward to working with you guys,  (looks at the others),  and with the trainees!  (she waves again)

CHUNGHAspecialist
And Charlie!

CHUNGHAspecialist
I also speak English! You have another fluent buddy!
(english)

CHARLIEco-host
Oh my god?

CHARLIEco-host
You and me and Wendy against the world!
(english)

GEUMIEhost
Hey! A lot of us also speak English too...

CHARLIEco-host
Well... I guess that's true... but still! Me, Chungha and Wendy against the world!
(english)

GEUMIEhost
Eh...

YURIco-host
Geumie, just let them dream.


Geumie does a, pretty clearly faked, sad face and slumps into her chair, and Yuri gently places a hand on her shoulder. After a few seconds of looking oh-so-sad Geumie flies up and sits properly in her chair again.


GEUMIEhost
Anyways! Chungha, you're another one of us who's been on a survival show before! How's that feeling?

CHUNGHAspecialist
Well... I don't really think that it's something special? Wait... who are the ones of us with survival show experience? I know me and Soyeon...

YURIco-host
Me and Geumie were on a big survival show too! And, um.... 



Yuri looks around.


YURIco-host
I think that's it, actually!

YURIco-host
So, Soyeon-unnie, what do you think?

SOYEONspecialist
I've done this whole judge thing before, so it's not really anything special for me either to be honest!

GEUMIEhost
Welp, that was a flop question..

YURIco-host
Nooo, don't say that!


Yuri gives her friend a stern stare, which earns her chuckles from the rest of the table. 

there is another one of those cutesy little transition animations and, seemingly, there's been another little time skip.


CHARLIEco-host
Is it... time for the final specialist?

CHUNGHAspecialist
Dun dun duuun!

CHARLIEco-host
Thank you!

GEUMIEhost
Welcome.... our final specialist...

CHARLIEco-host
Oooo... who's it gonna be!

GEUMIEhost
It's......


a new person, our final specialist, shows up on the screen. They're already sat in the final chair by the table.



DOKYEOM ✶ specialist
DK! LEE SEOKMIN! DOKYEOM!

DOKYEOMspecialist
I'm SEVENTEEN's main vocalist, the fun spreading happy virus, mr DK!

DOKYEOMspecialist
And now... a vocal specialist at Reach The Stars!

CHARLIEco-host
Ahh! Hello!

WENDYspecialist
We're a lot of third generation artists aren't we?

GEUMIEhost
Oh, actually...

CHUNGHAspecialist
Yeah, wait, we are!

CHARLIEco-host
I don't even know what half of us are considered to be honest...

YURIco-host
I think... me, Geumie and you are 4th gen... right?

SOYEONspecialist
And me?

YURI ✶ co-host
Um...

CHARLIEco-host
Well if I'm 4th gen... then... you should be 4th gen? Maybe? I don't know?

GEUMIEhost
I never understood the generation thing to be honest...

CHARLIEco-host
Real... or i mean, same!


there seems to be a bit of a time skip again, clearly these people talk way too much about unrelated things... 


DOKYEOMspecialist
Wait, so what do we do now?

CHUNGHAspecialist
Yeah, what do we do now? I didn't get a proper outline of the day from staff... but it seems way too early to end filming now, right?

WENDYspecialist
Yeah!

CHARLIEco-host
Oh yeah, right!


Charlie nudges Geumie, who sits up straighter in her chair and looks disoriented for a moment before shaking her head and starting to talk.


GEUMIEhost
Yesss, right, sorry! Let me, um...


she picks up a bunch of talking cards and starts to read from them.


GEUMIEhost
So! All of the specialists have been introduced, and we're all sat here around this round table thing..

GEUMIEhost
Now, dear specialists, please tell the viewers how your roles as.. specialists.. are going to work!


there is another transition animation, and a pre-recorded video plays. 


CHUNGHAspecialist
Hello! I'm Chungha and I'm a dance specialist and I'm introducing the specialist role!

CHUNGHAspecialist
We are six specialists, no I don't know who all of them are yet, and together with the hosts we are going to help all the lovely trainees on their journey!


it seamlessly cuts to a new speaker. this time, their name and specialist focus is written in the corner.


WENDYspecialist
We as specialists, or guides as I just found out is an alternative name for us, are going to mentor or train the trainees. Especially in the skill-set we're focused in, so for me I'll be focusing on helping trainees with their singing and vocal techniques!



SOYEONspecialist
We specialists are also going to judge the trainees after each mission or song has been finalised. We'll give them feedback and pointers on what they should do differently, so they know where they need to improve. 

SOYEONspecialist
Some of us are definitely going to have different styles to both mentoring and judging them, but it all just comes from a place of wanting them to get better!



TAEMINspecialist
As all of the guides are all active artists in the industry we are probably going to have overlapping schedules with this show... which means that at least some of us are, most likely, going to miss an episode or two.

TAEMINspecialist
But don't worry! If, at any time, we dont have enough specialists for an episode, there will be stand-ins or temporary replacements, or.. whatever you now can call them.



CHUNGHAspecialist
For some episodes we may or may not also have some guest guides... cool, right?



YOONGIspecialist
For some things like, um, specific team judging or mentoring we're going to seperate into groups. Most likely, and like the example I was given, in groups of three with.. um.. one of each specialist type. But there's going to be other group formations, like.... maybe duos? Or.. by type? Or.... I don't know any other formations that could actually work..



DOKYEOMspecialist
And for some of the missions every specialist is gonna get a team assigned to them, so like I would be given a team to train and help for a mission. 

DOKYEOMspecialist
Like... Say a team– Oop, Say the name! No, but, like... A team is covering a song, I get assigned a team, they have a leader and then I'm there as a mentor, who's there to help when they get stuck and to give them the perspective of an... idol, a professional, an artist.

DOKYEOMspecialist
Yeahh, I explained that well... didn't I?



with the same good old animation, we return back to the present. 


GEUMIEhost
What a nice little video message!


Yuri visibly cringes at the way she says it.


YURIco-host
Mmh... yeah... 

CHUNGHAspecialist
It feels so weird to watch that edited and cut together...  (shivers),   but I'm used to it now! I think...

GEUMIEhost
But it was explained very well!

DOKYEOMspecialist
I thought they'd cut that last part out...

YOONGIspecialist
It's fine, listen I explained my part pretty badly so

WENDYspecialist
No, you didn't!



GEUMIEhost
Oh..? Now, what is this! 


Geumie does a super dramatic and animated gasp.


GEUMIEhost
Another video message?!

GEUMIEhost
Should we watch it together..?

CHARLIEco-host
Obviously!



with another transition, a new video is shown on screen. this time, four people are shown sitting (or maybe standing) together. 


◤ ACTRESSES & ACTORS ◢
Hello! We are the actors!

JULIETTEactor
We are all actors and VA's for the final game, aka...

ANTONactor ◢
BY VIRTUE OF THE STARS!

JULIETTEactor
... and also Stardom Quest, except the sprites are just inspired by us for that one. 

HAORANactor
We are also acting for the little short films that'll be included on here.

MINJAE ✶ actor
Another one of the actors is...

Minjae holds up a picture frame of...

MINJAEactor
Geumie! 

MINJAEactor
Who also happens to be the main host for the show! Fun, right?

HAORANactor
All of us here, including Geumie I guess, are oh-so very happy to be part of this huge project!

ANTONactor
All of us... like... [bleeep]

JULIETTEactor
Ant!

ANTONactor
Sorry noona...

JULIETTEactor
Just... do your bit instead!

ANTONactor
Yeah yeah, sorry!

ANTONactor
We are also partly judges and mentors, so for some evals we are going to be there and help the trainees.

JULIETTEactor
And..?

ANTONactor
... and for others we're going to be reacting in another room.

JULIETTEactor
And..?

ANTONactor
... and for some we're just not going to be there. 

HAORANactor
It's also, obvioiusly, not going to work for all of us.

HAORANactor
Geumie is the host, and–

MINJAEactor
I'm not an idol! Just an actor! Who suprisingly got a role even though I'm– I shouldn't say that, sorry.

ANTONactor
Say it! Say it! Say it!

JULIETTEactor
Don't, please. Love you Min and love you Ant, but you both know why.



the video wraps up with all four of them waving 'goodbye' to the viewers, and with a little animation of each one of the characters they represent in the pixel game.

after that, the same animation transition plays and once again, we're back in the present.


GEUMIEhost
Now wasn't that cute!

CHARLIEco-host
Aha! There they are! Julie and Anton! Let's go!

GEUMIEhost
Yeah, finally, right?

CHARLIEco-host
YES, finally!


CHUNGHAspecialist
I can't be the only one thinking this but... do we think Anton is the Charlie of their team?


[producer note: we agree.]


CHARLIEco-host
Hey! Listen, I take that as a compliment!

CHUNGHAspecialist
It wasn't meant as something mean so that's... good?

GEUMIEhost
As someone on the acting team.... Ant is definetly the Charlie.

CHARLIEco-host
Or maybe I'm the Anton of their team?

YURIco-host
Well you're older than them so...

CHARLIEco-host
Am I? 

CHARLIEco-host
Oh right, yeah, I am.


GEUMIEhost
Anyone else got... any thoughts or something before we move on to the next topic?

YURIco-host
Next topic?

GEUMIEhost
What, you thought the recording was over?

YURIco-host
Eh... not really, no...

GEUMIEhost
So, anyone got a thought?

DOKYEOMspecialist
Yeah, hold on, did you in the host group also film one of those intro videos?

GEUMIEhost
No... but do you think we should?

DOKYEOMspecialist
Well I mean.. most of everyone else did a sort of video thing so why haven't you?

CHARLIEco-host
So you think we should?

DOKYEOMspecialist
Yeah?

CHARLIEco-host
Well then, after the recording... we film a video?

YURIco-host
Today?

CHARLIEco-host
Mmh... tomorrow?

YURIco-host
Sure, sounds good then!


after another editing time skip, Geumie is back in focus.


GEUMIEhost
Now that everyone has been fully introduced... we can move on to the players!

CHARLIEco-host
A-K-A the trainees!

TAEMINspecialist
Oh?

YURIco-host
Yesss!

CHUNGHAspecialist
I think this might be the highlight of my day actually..


Geumie then points toward a screen mounted to the wall next to the table, all of the cast can be seen turning over to look at it, with the ones who previously would've had their backs toward turning their chairs around. Together with the cast the camera turns over and fully views the tv which it then focuses on and....






the screen fades to black... but just for a moment, dont worry, we'll be back soon!







𝗥𝗘𝗔𝗖𝗛 𝗧𝗛𝗘 𝗦𝗧𝗔𝗥𝗦 WILL CONTINUE AIRING IN JUST A MOMENT !!







AUTHORS NOTE:

Can you tell i was tired writing this :D this was the hungover lumi putting together most of this AND IM SORRY IF IT SHOWS ToT

ANYWAYS, havent gotten far on part 3 as im trying to put together a reference doc for the trainees (trying to figure out how to lay it out lol) BUT trust me its gonna be out soon enough!!! also, reminder to go do the active check bc not everyone has!

another thing i'm realising as i write is that i maybe should have made specific specialists to judge so that maybe the trainees wouldnt be scared in front of them?? idk i think id be scared to get help from the same person that's gonna judge me lmao, but hey i guess that's a way i can add different vibes to the trainees, someone being scared someone not being scared idk


also a few questions for my writing:
- do you guys want me to write yoongi or suga? i feel like most ppl just know him as yoongi nowadays so that's what i went with, but would you guys prefer suga?
- should i write dokyeom, dk or seokmin? i went with dokyeom bc it took up space and i feel like ppl still know him as dk or dokyeom, but would you guys prefer smth else?
- would you prefer game master or host for geumie?
- do you want me to write what specialist each of them are?



also got called out on pinterest today,

cause ive been going like.... what if... i... make a small little pixel game... for the applyfic... for no reason other than ive wanted to learn how to program a game for years now and like... what if...


MOVING ON!!!

HAVE A GOOD DAY CUTIE PATOOTIE AND I HOPE YOU ENJOYED THE CHAPTER!  i was gonna go over it one more time but im just a bit too tired as of posting this and i just want to get it out and go to bed so... boom baam? BYEBYE!!!!
