Chicago, IL (Radius, March 10th, 2023)

[cerulean cloud]

Lol

[silent gate]

Omg that's scary

[cerulean cloud]

Its somewhere on the other side

[craggy sundial]

geezus

I hope you find it

[stoic plinth]

So far for me, primavera was the best even if it was only 1hr

[cerulean cloud]

Yeah that lady super nice

[fluid canopy]

That’s why I only took a couple short clip videos!

I left the “I’m gonna spam this to TikTok and Twitter and YouTube while it’s happening right now” to the obsessive media barricades

[silent gate]

Yeah I only took a few clips I wanted to see it myself while I had the chance

[heavy junco]

Oh no that sucks

[fluid canopy]

I got a lot of smiles and waved cuz I was just nonstop hopping up and down to every song waving the lightstick with full force - I was so energetic even though we stood for hours in the cold

[heavy junco]

I only videoed you and I to have a magic stick video

[cerulean cloud]

Found it

[heavy junco]

Oof

[silent gate]

Glad you were able to track it down

[fluid canopy]

The only time I was forced to view the concert through camera was when guy in front of me who I dubbed “mister arm” decided to have both his arms up straight fully extended above his head and my response was to tip toe stand and take a video over his phone to watch it cuz even doing that I had steadier video quality then him

[heavy junco]

We seen your light stick so much since we was right behind you lol

[fluid canopy]

I AM SO SORRY

[heavy junco]

It's fine it didn't Block anything

[fluid canopy]

you probably saw my camera go over his camera too then a couple times

[cerulean cloud]

[fluid canopy]

The lady behind me said that too lol. She said she misses the old lightstick cuz they’re see through like mine

[heavy junco]

Yea and you can't make them 10 feet tall and block people's view like this one guy near the middle of vip1

[balmy ember]

Did it just fall off?

[fluid canopy]

There was nothing to block at that point except arm

[heavy junco]

That was my experience in San Fran last year the guy in front of me refused to put his arms down holding his phone/light stick

[silent gate]

We lucked out this time the 3 people infront of us were so much shorter than us

[heavy junco]

They were very smol

[fluid canopy]

AAAAA

Sorry it hit me again

Every time I think about this I’m gonna scream

[fluid canopy]

Btw I love that your name became “one two scream” lol. MY SIDE WON BTW

[heavy junco]

Cheri literally will never be the same again

[fluid canopy]

There’s no way

I short circuit and scream every time

[heavy junco]

We did we showed them others who's the boss

[silent gate]

Our side actually destroyed the other

It was insane

[heavy junco]

They even had a warm up

[fluid canopy]

My side had the power of both yoohyeon and dami on it of course we would win

I screamed so loud my voice broke

[heavy junco]

[lofty raptor]

River looks like lime jello

[glacial rover]

I carried my side in that face off. We were too quiet compared to the other side lol

[fluid canopy]

It was amusing. Even with our imposter that screamed for the wrong side we won

[glacial rover]

[cerulean cloud]

Yeah apparently

[fleet wigeon]

I saved my VVIP wristband too but the lady that put the band on my wrist managed to put it on so tight I couldn’t bend my wrist without cutting circulation. I went back to her and she was able to fix it for me.

[magic sage]

Worth it

[craggy sundial]

we expended all our energy in the warm up

RIP

[heavy junco]

On the bus 9-10 hr trip here I come

[silent gate]

Mines not even here yet lol

[stoic plinth]

Safe travels

[fluid canopy]

So she did it to others too? Yeah I had to shimmy it down alittle cuz my arm lost feeling

My arm still has half my 21 stamp on it cuz they stamped my arm instead of my hand

I was wearing half gloves

[craggy sundial]

one of the friends we made didn't have her ID at the time so she got the under 21 stamp of shame even though she was over 21

and couldn't get it restamped after she had her ID

[fluid canopy]

Loooool

[craggy sundial]

not that we were thinking of drinking but the under 21 stamp is like this giant black X

[fluid canopy]

Wel I didn’t plan to drink anyways

I woulda been closer to the barricade but

I got shoved out of line by three ladies and one of their bf

And then another person who got shoved out of line too pushed me back into line

And I got bounced around alittle 💀

I’m too polite apparently

[silent gate]

The bus is late.

I'll never escape delays

[fluid canopy]

You got so unlucky with buses

[silent gate]

[heavy junco]

Rip anchor

[fluid canopy]

At least you didn’t get shoved out of line though

[silent gate]

True

[fluid canopy]

We joked about it but I got actually barreled into and I was like wot lol

[fluid canopy]

HELP

help every time I stop thinking I remember dami hair ruffle

[silent gate]

I got a really good video of the intro to what

I'll send it later tn when I get home

[fluid canopy]

Did you??

Ooooh yes please!

[heavy junco]

Actual footage

[fluid canopy]

Here welcome to my crap quality video

[heavy junco]

Those lights were killing me all concert

[fluid canopy]

I was late to starting camera but I got a wave too 😭

But SuA got a hug

The real dami Stan was on stage all along lol

[fluid canopy]

Wanna see killer lights?

Here have killer lights LOL

Me: I have dami vision

[cerulean cloud]

My phone hates blue light

[heavy junco]

Just got a msg from greyhound saying bus was 16 mins late despite me being on it

[fluid canopy]

Dami: exists in front of me
Me: yes

[heavy junco]

I'm just surprised the lights didn't give someone a seizure

[fluid canopy]

Oh no I enjoyed it weirdly

Lol ima make multiple gifs of that video I took cuz dami hair flip

[stoic plinth]

yeah those lights were crazy

[fluid canopy]

I loved listening to when they did emotion

[heavy junco]

I liked doing follow the leader with jiu

[fluid canopy]

Look how chaotic my filming is

Wait no load

Why you no load

[scarlet lichen]

how do u film without the bass blaring in the background

[fluid canopy]

[heavy junco]

Rip

[fluid canopy]

Idk does it sound okay? 😂 I haven’t watched with sound on yet

[scarlet lichen]

i'm just asking in general

[fluid canopy]

I can’t answer until I know if mine even sound okay

[scarlet lichen]

i rewatch and then "pfff pfff pfff pfff" happens while they sing

[fluid canopy]

Look it’s dami

[scarlet lichen]

see, urs sounds good

even when the beat drops

[heavy junco]

What about mine

[molten saffron]

[fluid canopy]

I loved that I started laughing so much

Who gave her that

[molten saffron]

me

[fluid canopy]

Ohhh in that case just don’t move your fingers at all while hiding the camera. Only elbow

[scarlet lichen]

u didn't post urs

[heavy junco]

I posted plenty

[scarlet lichen]

omg dongie did too

[heavy junco]

[scarlet lichen]

-scrolls-

[heavy junco]

Sua jumpscared dongie with the cutout

[molten saffron]

that was funny as hell

i cant wait for the photographers to post hq pics so i can make a new suaevil emote

[scarlet lichen]

probs not here

[fleet wigeon]

Seems like it happened to you and me so far. She was very nice in fixing it. I literally couldn’t bend my wrist. Definitely couldn’t have went the entire concert with the band on my wrist like that.

[scarlet lichen]

think that's the next sua face to send up

[silent gate]

Finally made it

Now the long trip begins

[cerulean cloud]

I can’t check in early in hotel so

[scarlet lichen]

would want this but she wouldn't be in pennywise

[cerulean cloud]

Japanese market

[scarlet lichen]

sounds cool

japanese H-Mart

[cerulean cloud]

Yeahh the food court is so damn crowded

Theres an Hmart around here too

[scarlet lichen]

👀

sadly i can't lug any home

if i was there

[cerulean cloud]

[earnest merlin]

gonna start making my way home soon… i still havent recovered 😭😭😭

[heavy junco]

It goes by to fast

[lone cipher]

Home safe. Foot started falling asleep but we made it.

[fluid canopy]

I’m still 4 hours from home lol

[woven saffron]

Add to my lightstick collection

[silent gate]

Glad you made it

[lone cipher]

How's your journey going?

[silent gate]

We only just departed

[torpid tendon]

🥰

last night was too fun

[lone cipher]

I'll keep you in my prayers for a much better journey home

[silent gate]

[cerulean cloud]

Met some insomnias here

At mitsuwa marketplace food court

[fallow pollen]

Just dropping this here because I'm over the moon

[lone cipher]

I'm for betting you aren't the only one lol

Its so strange being home. It all almost seems like it was a dream

[fallow pollen]

It really does feel like a dream

[silent gate]

Can they come back tomorrow

[cerulean cloud]

I coulda taken a flight to irving

Didn’t realize the dates were so close

[fallow pollen]

My body is far too angry for me to do that drive again

[heavy junco]

And this is why I decided to come to Chicago as well

[scarlet lichen]

yeah any liquids=no go for planes

[fluid canopy]

I laughed so hard at her reaction when she turned around and saw that lol

[fluid canopy]

WAS FUN

If I die I have no regrets

My life dream already came true after all

[cerulean cloud]

I met at the market but yeah was fun

[fluid canopy]

Here Jiu fans for you

I looked away I’m sorry

I was watching dami while filming this for you

@light fern

[cerulean cloud]

She’s way to adorable has to be illegal

[fluid canopy]

When the video starts to drift assume I’m watching dami

[fluid canopy]

Yes I thought it would make the Jiu fans happy though! She had so much fun

[fallow pollen]

My favorite i have of jiu

[light fern]

And hgere I was thinking why tf I got tagged when I wasn't there xD

[fallow pollen]

She's so loving to everyone watching her

[light fern]

She's always having so much fun on stage

[scarlet lichen]

jojo pose

idc, she invented that one

[lone cipher]

So this is what they call post concert depression. I already miss all you great people.

I'm too soft

[light fern]

Can't have PCD when you have never been on a concert

[lone cipher]

It was my first and its not gonna be my last.

[scarlet lichen]

she was about to kick tf outta Yooh

thx for the better angle

[fallow pollen]

SuA neglected our side so I got hard bias wrecked

[molten saffron]

Thank u to my photographer friend

[scarlet lichen]

evil dongie

[heavy junco]

So many windmills

There's well over 200

[fluid canopy]

I took a video just for you lol

[light fern]

[lone cipher]

I passed by many on my way back. It was strange I passed a toll station but didn't have to use it, and their website says I owe nothing. What the fuck?

[heavy junco]

I take it back there's probably more than 500 windmills

No one tell Don Quixote

They're still going

Also pog no toll

[placid dock]

[restive vector]

I got all my vids uploaded. with this new layout, where do I post the link?

[lone cipher]

Eh its set up to let me know if I MUST pay so it'll be ok either way

[molten saffron]

@leaden salmon hi

[restive vector]

https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PL8_qA7LgnCAwEZJT0U6E7Ztgk8M7HOi4h

[heavy junco]

Finally at the end of the windmills

[heavy junco]

13 mins of driving past windmills

Cute siyeon

She almost won me back this time

[lone cipher]

Don't be Abs 3 now

[heavy junco]

[lone cipher]

Keep the Dami reels coming we know it makes you happy and we are too

[cerulean cloud]

Det got summer holiday 2

[lone cipher]

Ooo pretty

I notice the Pink version isn't there for ASU

[scarlet lichen]

i'm just looking for RTU

[cerulean cloud]

Theres a pink version forthat?

[lone cipher]

Yeah man

[fluid canopy]

I didn’t get very many videos but I’m happy with the couple I got!

[lone cipher]

Got it by random chance off Amazon

[cerulean cloud]

Always seemed red to me@lol

I know I got green and the original brown version

[lofty raptor]

Is this in Chicago?

Speaking of

[cerulean cloud]

Out in the suburbs

Why is siyeon just a whole mood

[cerulean cloud]

Anyone in the area still want to get some dinner tonight?

[lone cipher]

Think you might be the last of our group but I cant recall everyone's travel plans

I'm already home but I would have. Sorry dude

[cerulean cloud]

You goood

[heavy junco]

I'm in indy got an hour layover at the bus station apparently

[lone cipher]

Welcome to the soybeans and corn state

At least its sunny today so you shouldn't be too cold

[torpid tendon]

siyeon did indeed fuck it up

[lone cipher]

Siyeon is the true duality of humans. A beast on stage. A meme offstage

[heavy junco]

Is that you

Shes a meme onstage as well what you mean

[lone cipher]

Fine I concede

[heavy junco]

Need I find the siyeon dance video

[torpid tendon]

is who what

the one telling her she betta work?

[glacial rover]

PCD hitting rn

[hollow badger]

^ same

That’s why I let my instrusive thoughts take over

And well….

[torpid tendon]

for some reason i don’t have any pcd this time around

[hollow badger]

It’s worst when it takes a while to kick in

[torpid tendon]

i just thoroughly enjoyed myself

very satisfied customer

[hollow badger]

Lol that could also be the case

[leaden salmon]

hi.

[cerulean cloud]

Better be your bias now

[lone cipher]

Incorrect.

[cerulean cloud]

Interesting playlist at this mochi donut place

[hollow badger]

This was meant for me

[cerulean cloud]

Played Japanese version of LATATA by idle, some SHINee song then Magnetic by monsta x

[lone cipher]

You can keep guessing

[cerulean cloud]

No

[hollow badger]

It’s Yoohyeon

[hollow badger]

🤔

[lone cipher]

K

[lone cipher]

Wrog

[cerulean cloud]

Ot7

[lone cipher]

Sort of

[cerulean cloud]

[heavy junco]

Might be cause I've been to 2 shows but im pretty satisfied. No pcd yet. I've been sufficiently filled with DC

[cerulean cloud]

Jealous I’ll never be satisfied

[heavy junco]

I mean I could always use more but

[hollow badger]

ITS THE MANAGER!

[hollow badger]

^

[lone cipher]

I never saw a rule that said you can't have a bias and still be an OT7

[hollow badger]

True

[cerulean cloud]

We should all be ot7 then in dis server

Then

[lone cipher]

Didn't see that as a rule either

[cerulean cloud]

@heavy junco

Including that deep dish fam

[heavy junco]

Ooh nice

We got some Korean hotdogs and they were so good

Korean are better than America than making hotdogs and chicken

[glacial rover]

Ill agree on the hotdogs but chicken... what a matchup

[cerulean cloud]

for sure

the 2nd is friggen coated in ramen

whats not to love

[heavy junco]

Just saying that Korean chicken I had Thursday night was amazing

[cerulean cloud]

ill prob have some more before I leave

[glacial rover]

Chicken is probably my favorite food so I get spoiled by Korean chicken and American chicken lol. Best of both worlds.

[heavy junco]

Chicken is good

Also muahaha

[cerulean cloud]

am I supposed to be impressed that you have no seat partner

[silent gate]

Actually jealous

[heavy junco]

See Iron gets it

[cerulean cloud]

[heavy junco]

[fluid canopy]

[lone cipher]

Iron been traumatized by bus

[silent gate]

Holding this pain

[lofty raptor]

Don't know how I missed this earlier but I coincidentally am also getting deep dish pizza for dinner lol

[lone cipher]

We had a blast. I hope everyone who is still traveling gets home safe.

[fallow pollen]

Still going through all my footage but this is the moment I died last night

[quiet geode]

what chicken was it

[tiny forge]

Soy garlic from Bonchon

And the spicy one too

[quiet geode]

YESS BABY YESS SO GOOOD

[lone cipher]

The potstickers nearly blew my head off but my sinuses were nice and clear.

[austere zenith]

going back to work after last nights concert is rough

[lone cipher]

That'll be me tomorrow morning for the first half the day. It will get better.

[cerulean cloud]

low key lucky af I found those ladies that saw my rim come off

or rather that they found me

not very common to find a pedestrian in the area I was in but they were right there

[lone cipher]

You ok dude!?

[tiny forge]

Made it back home, despite mother nature's attempts to throw all the snow at me in the last hour

[fluid canopy]

I understand cuz I used to use those lol

Yeahhh weather be bad here

[tiny forge]

I'm glad we left when we did. It really started to get worse

Wouldn't want to be still driving in this

[lone cipher]

Just glad you're all safe

[little stream]

Just made it home almost died in a snow storm

[cerulean cloud]

yeah lmfao

[lone cipher]

Was worried is all

[cerulean cloud]

i can still drive home 😮

;p

[lone cipher]

Sorry

[heavy junco]

Welp my non seat partner has ended someone sitting by me now

[little stream]

Good luck guys

[tiny forge]

Ended up losing my lanyard with the photo card and photo card holder attached to it with a birthday Yoohyeon pic Cherri gave me. Thought it might be at the hotel, but I talked to Jaslin multiple times and they can't find it. It's definitely not in any of my bags, either. Sad times

[lone cipher]

And now... youre holding this pain...

[lone cipher]

Coat check is the only place I'd have guessed it might be. I wasnt even aware it was lost and im saddened for you

[tiny forge]

Pretty sure I still had it on when we went back to the hotel. I changed and dumped my stuff before we left to the hot pot place.

I didn't know it was missing until this morning. After about an hour and a half of driving I decided to double check my bags, since I didn't remember seeing it when I packed up. I just thought it was in a bag somewhere. But it wasn't

[lone cipher]

That sucks dude. I'll keep my eyes peeled for any listings for the card. I know it doesn't help make you feel better but I wanna help

[tiny forge]

Yeah. Well it's the combo of the purple lanyard from Reason merch coupled with the fancy photo card holder AND the birthday Yoohyeon card

[heavy junco]

My knee is holding this pain

[tiny forge]

Plus the fact that the holder and pc were a gift

[lone cipher]

I know dude.

And im sorry

[lone cipher]

Seat too small

[tiny forge]

Like I swear Jaslin staff didn't look hard enough. Wish I could teleport back quick haha

[lone cipher]

Whats the photocard look like? I cant recall exact details. My brain feels foggy

[heavy junco]

Real small plane seats are better than. This

[tiny forge]

I didn't have it long enough to give a good description. @fluid canopy would be able to describe it better

[lone cipher]

Roger.

Shes been teaching my techniques to search for things and I wanna put them to good use

[fluid canopy]

It’s one from yoohyeon birthday cafe where she’s making a cute hand sign

[lone cipher]

I'll go diving

I felt i knew it but also knew I missed a detail

[fluid canopy]

And the card holder keychain I gave you is an imported Japanese Photocard keychain that says pururu on top with a cute dog design on it, yellow border.

Those aren’t cheap either so that’s sad 💀

[tiny forge]

I saw the cardholder on mercari for like $16 + $4 shipping

[lone cipher]

Needle in a haystack work with me search engines

[tiny forge]

This looks like what Panda-Blessed by Dami gave me

[lone cipher]

If it isn't an exact match its very similar.

[fluid canopy]

Yeah I wanted to give you a nice durable and safe frame to use so the card wouldn’t be damaged and those ones are really good

[lone cipher]

Do you have a pic of the PC? I'm getting lost in all these different POBS

[fluid canopy]

You won’t find it on mercari, birthday cafe photocards are special events in Korea and generally you can get banned if you sell them so they’re hard to get/find without special ordering from the event itself or having a friend go

[lone cipher]

Oh shit

[fluid canopy]

Yeahhhh. :c thanks for trying though

[earnest merlin]

is it

the peace sign one?

[lone cipher]

I think that sounds like the hand sign

But im having a hard time recalling things

[earnest merlin]

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/E02ugmNVoAQok8T?format=jpg&name=large

this one?

[tiny forge]

I think that could be the one

[balmy ember]

Finally made it home hopefully everyone else had better time than I did

[lone cipher]

What happened? Snow?

[lone cipher]

It looks very familiar.

[balmy ember]

Wasn't in MN yet and part way in Wisconsin snowing and it started looking like silent hill scene

[lone cipher]

Gary Indiana felt that way passing by it. Some heavy shit.

[tiny forge]

Yeah I think it started snowing in MN at around noon or so, maybe earlier. By the time I got there after 4 it was already looking bad

[fluid canopy]

Yeah that’s it

At least I’m pretty sure it is. Same pose

[earnest merlin]

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/FluIqv1aAAIUjgA?format=jpg&name=large

there is also this one

[fluid canopy]

I don’t stare at yoohyeon cards as often as Dami

I think the other ones closer

To my memory

[earnest merlin]

that's all i could find from the bday cafes with poses like this

so it probably is that one

[fluid canopy]

Sorry typing with one hand

[tiny forge]

I literally just looked through my stuff again and turned hoodies inside out as if that will change anything haha. Hoping for it to materialize somehow

[lone cipher]

Well with what Cheri told me earlier as expected I found nothing

[fluid canopy]

I also took everything out of my own bag and shook it before putting it away just in case and it did not turn up here either. :c

[tiny forge]

I sort of feel that the staff did find it, but know there's nothing I can do about it

[fluid canopy]

She definitely knew what dreamcatcher was

[tiny forge]

Like they know I'm not driving back

[fluid canopy]

When I said dreamcatcher lanyard she said “oh dreamcatcher lanyard, okay. No”

Maybe she’s tired of us dreamcatcher fans invading the hotel and decided to be petty 💀 or maybe she legitimately somehow didn’t find it even though neither of us have it and that’s the last place you remember placing it..

If you don’t remember wearing it to hotpot did you leave it on the table before we left? And if so do you remember if it was there when we returned? I hid all my stuff under my coat when we left for hotpot

(You probably remember me doing that and muttering “just in case”)

[tiny forge]

ya I'm not sure if I had it on at hotpot or not. I changed quickly to remove jersey, robes and hoodie

[lone cipher]

If your DND sign was up they'd never enter. But I was 3rd floor so I didn't know if you guys did that.

[fluid canopy]

It fell off like twice but I don’t see why someone would go in at midnight

[lone cipher]

They wouldn't

The cleaning staff would never work that late and the concierge had no excuse to go in there.

[tiny forge]

Like I understand how it could've ended up somewhere on the floor, hidden away, in my hurry to dump merch and take off the robes and jersey and change hoodies. When I was wearing it, it was around my neck. So hard to lose then.

And I don't know how much I can trust a hotel staff who knows I'm not coming back

[fluid canopy]

And probably saw a million parading dc fans today..

[lone cipher]

If anyone saw it they may have simply thought it discarded. The odds cleaning staff would know how precious that is without being an Insomnia would be slim id think

[tiny forge]

ya but we called at like 12:15 PM. Only 1 hr 15 min after checkout ended. The front desk lady claimed it hadn't been cleaned yet

[lone cipher]

Didn't know that.

[tiny forge]

She first said she'd have someone look and to call back in 10 min

I called back and she said she couldn't find it. Then I kept insisting it had to be there and left my number and everything. She said she'd let cleaning staff know and all that.

At like almost 2 PM I called again. She said she looked again and didn't find anything. But if she looked again, why didn't she call? And what about cleaning staff?

Although when I called at like 6 PM for a different shift, the person there did say the morning shift left a note about it. But that nothing was found

There's also the possibility that front desk lady couldn't find it, but cleaning staff did, but didn't say anything. Or front desk lady is lying. Or it's still there and no one found it because they really didn't look that hard

Ok I need to move on and let it go or I'll lose my mind haha

[silent gate]

Finally made it home

Those roads became terrible fast

Super scary

[craggy sundial]

ick, I'm sorry you had to deal with that.

[silent gate]

They honestly probably didn't even look

[lone cipher]

This.

[tiny forge]

Yeah. Possibly. I just need to remember I have Yoohyeon's jersey

[lone cipher]

Think @magic sage is still airborne but hope we hear safe landing soon

[silent gate]

It's the little things that matter

[tiny forge]

I hope she's not still airborne. I thought her flight was at like 7 AM and it was only 45 minutes

Was it delayed?

[lone cipher]

It wasn't at 7 am

She wanted to leave for the airport then but I didnt know when her flight actually left.

But im confident shes ok

[silent gate]

[tiny forge]

Ok. I'm just saying, her flight should've only been a 45 minute flight that left in the morning.

[lone cipher]

Think she will be the last to arrive tho unless Vrax hasn't gotten home yet.

Crud i forgot to ask for us to have a group photo of our own

[craggy sundial]

that's why there's a next time

[silent gate]

We do it all again next time

[lone cipher]

I look forward to seeing you all again.

[cerulean cloud]

[tiny forge]

Yeah. I might try and stay an extra day maybe, too. I was sad I didn't have time to hit the kpop shop up while it was open

[cerulean cloud]

2nd time antifragile playing in various places i been

[lone cipher]

Would've been cool. If we have a hotel with a late checkout around 11 we could stow our stuff in vehicles and be free for a couple hours.

[tiny forge]

I mean, our hotel did have an 11 AM checkout haha

But we all wanted to get on the road because of the long drive

And I'm glad we left when we did with how the snowstorm hit

[silent gate]

Hopefully next time we can all stay an extra day so we can explore some more

[silent gate]

Yeah I'm super bummed about that lol

[cerulean cloud]

Like I did lol

[lone cipher]

I was trying not to mention our hotel since... well yeah.

[tiny forge]

I really wish we had a tote bag for merch

[cerulean cloud]

I have two

But couldn’t get merch

[tiny forge]

I meant from merch this time

I didn't know there wouldn't be one

[silent gate]

It sucks that they closed it so early

[tiny forge]

It's the first concert I went to that didn't give a tote bag

[cerulean cloud]

Thisnis the first kpop concert ive been to when it wasn’t available

Post everything

Post all the extra events

[tiny forge]

I would've brought a small bag with me to help keep track of merch

Did they have merch running during meet and greet/hi touch?

I know most of us were in line

[cerulean cloud]

Yeah

I checked it when lined up and it was too long so I decided not to get at that moment

I should stop bitching about how the lines look and just line up

Cuz it prob goes fast

[tiny forge]

Yeah. They were super focused on getting everyone out of the building

[cerulean cloud]

Lessons learned

[cerulean cloud]

Stop snowing chicago

[placid dock]

They made us all stand out in the cold to trade the VVIP stuff

[cerulean cloud]

wHoS sIgNaTurE iS tHis

[placid dock]

LOL

"Idk I can't tell bc my hands are shaking too bad to actually look at it"

[tiny forge]

Ya I think that was sort of poor form given the weather

[placid dock]

yeah

I mean I get it but dang

[cerulean cloud]

They wanted our weeb asses outta there

[placid dock]

Hahahaha

[cerulean cloud]

@heavy junco got my korean chicken

[heavy junco]

Made it to Nashville. Now on my way home with my ride

[silent gate]

Glad you made it

[cerulean cloud]

hope you enjoy the ever so popular korean food of the south

[lone cipher]

You've had a long day

[placid dock]

I'm definitely glad to be back home

It's been a fun but super exhausting week lol

[craggy sundial]

I'm seeing your chicago photos pop up, good stuff as usual

[placid dock]

Thanks! The Dami photo is one of my favorite concert photos I've taken just in general

Just waiting for the few thousand photos to sync from my laptop to my desktop now that I'm home to keep editing

[heavy junco]

It's so hard to find korean food in my area. Have to drive more than an hour for kbbq

[placid dock]

Heyyyy same! Midwest problems lmao

Well, rural midwest anyway haha

[cerulean cloud]

that's less than I thought

for your area

[heavy junco]

Luckily I'm decently close to Huntsville. That's still more than I want to drive lol

[cerulean cloud]

just take their famous rockets there

easy

[heavy junco]

[icy cedar]

Finally chillin at home and this is what I've got from the concert!

[heavy junco]

[placid dock]

Yoooooooooo

Maybe I should have bought the jerseys

[silent gate]

@placid dock I just saw some of your pics on Twitter you took some awesome photos

[placid dock]

Aww thanks! Easy to get good photos when dreamcatcher are your models

Ngl it's sad that they're being really strict on even small point and shoot cameras but the S23 Ultra is a really solid backup

[icy cedar]

Maybe you should've! Me personally would say it's worth. Sadly I couldn't get all 7.😭

[placid dock]

I thought about getting at least Jiu's but I wasn't sure what I'd even do with it and didn't want to end up having it be a waste

[icy cedar]

Ahhh that is true.

[placid dock]

If they were baseball jerseys though...

my wallet would be in extreme danger

[craggy sundial]

I have a Plus and it is crazy how good even that tis

[placid dock]

Yeah for real. I've been iPhone ride or die for over a decade now but when it comes to cameras the S23 is in a league of its own

[earnest merlin]

all the photos from seeing the s23's are making me wish i got it before hand 😭 it looks SO crisp

[craggy sundial]

yep, you've seen everything I've sent in #dreamcatcher-chat . That's all S23 Plus

imagine if I had an Ultra

[earnest merlin]

next tour... showing up with an s23 for SURE

[placid dock]

My only complaint is that you can't burst shoot while in Pro mode so sometimes I miss moments because I can't spam fast enough hahaha

but that's where knowing choreo and knowing where to be looking comes into play (which I still need to get wayyyy better at, need to study more performances)

[molten saffron]

[placid dock]

hey wanna grab me a Jiu one

[molten saffron]

Yea if u want it ill grab it in oakland

[placid dock]

Blesssssss

Now I have to think about how to frame it and what else to put in the frame

[molten saffron]

How about 7 signed jius

[little stream]

How many concert are you going too?

[placid dock]

[molten saffron]

Idk like 2

[fluid canopy]

Oh wait when you point that part out it is kind of sus..

[placid dock]

[little stream]

[molten saffron]

[fluid canopy]

Something is wrong with this

It lacks Dami

Therefore I give it a 4/10

[molten saffron]

Yes wow

[placid dock]

[austere zenith]

dami? 👀

[fluid canopy]

If it doesn’t have Dami it misses half its value!

I’m messing with you lol. It’s fancy I’m just surprised at the lack of Dami

[icy cedar]

im sorryyy i wanted to get the rest but that's another $360 i need to get home.😭

[fluid canopy]

Oh geez did you do all these from one concert?

[molten saffron]

Thats 4 more jerseys than i have

[icy cedar]

yes.

[fluid canopy]

It is times like these that I’m glad to not be an o7 collector lol

Having a bias is good for your wallet in the end hahah

Or maybe not

[austere zenith]

it's all fun and games till their pcs are the most expensive ;-;

[fluid canopy]

I might not have a ton of jerseys and hoodies but I collect autographed items instead

[heavy junco]

Octoyooh and chocogah

[placid dock]

thankfully I just collect album versions and tour hoodies

[heavy junco]

[fluid canopy]

It’s a lucky choice lol

[placid dock]

I'd be so dead if I collected PCs or other signed stuff

[heavy junco]

Imagine ot7 signed minx album.

[icy cedar]

Yuppp octoyooh.

[austere zenith]

that would be a relic omg

[icy cedar]

Expensive for sure.

[heavy junco]

Dreamcatcher holy grail

[fluid canopy]

I managed to get Dami’s signed ticket (ignore the fact that this picture frame is too long lmao I have other priorities then fixing that )

[fluid canopy]

I actually don’t want that though I like to respect their dreamcatcher era and put the past to the past

I do wanna collect signed nightmare sometime this or next year though

[heavy junco]

[fluid canopy]

Why is that the thing you zoned in on

Out of everything lol

[heavy junco]

Well I first saw the yoohyeon autograph

[austere zenith]

the picture of her and the panda plush is so cute 🥺

[fluid canopy]

Dami 500 day photo ❤️

That was an annoying one to track down. There’s only 5 sets that are still around

I am getting dami with magic stick Photocard next month

[austere zenith]

where'd you get the polaroid pic from? if you dont mind me asking!

[heavy junco]

Need that signed yooh picture

[fluid canopy]

The winner of the Ceci Korean magazine interview Polaroid draw sold it and I asked lyviastudio to track it down for me. She overcharged but she gets the job done if you desire a rare item

It was worth it

[austere zenith]

the price we pay for collecting

[fluid canopy]

Here I can show you it lol

[austere zenith]

tho tbh i'd pay anything for blonde Dami

[fluid canopy]

And now it returns to display so it stays safe

[fluid canopy]

I’d do anything for Dami

[heavy junco]

She means anything too

[fluid canopy]

Though ask Lyviastudio. She definitely overcharges but I can at least promise that she isn’t a scammer - she’s a whale trap lol

She can find you something you want if you ask her

[austere zenith]

which platform is she on?

[austere zenith]

feel this big time

[fluid canopy]

Instagram

Don’t say I didn’t warn you about her pricing though she is a whale trap but she can find stuff

[austere zenith]

im probably just gunna do snooping on the pricing for now 👀

that way i can strategize how i'll need to come back from being broke

[scarlet lichen]

too bad i'm in ur state

the irony

[tropic shuttle]

hope everyone had a good time yesterday!!

[austere zenith]

@fluid canopy i found the sellers website 👀 signed pages for $75 isnt too bad

[lone cipher]

Signed pages?

Of photobooks?

[austere zenith]

yeah they were from fansigns

Vision and Maison era pages are $25 prolly bc they have a name on them- but then there's The Beginning of the End Japan for like, 75

[lone cipher]

There's too much to collect

But MTG would cost me tens of thousands just for 9 certain cards

So this is still better than that haha

[craggy sundial]

Quick reminder that these threads get closed 3 days after showtime - yes, even the one I was actually participating in, heh. Until then keep commiserating and talking and be sure to check out the rest of the server's chats if you wish

[next pumice]

They have so many concerts! MN peeps - there's one in St Paul

[lofty raptor]

Anyone else get an email from MMT about the vip m&g for Denver? Because I definitely didn't buy that and can't afford to be double charged at this point 😅😅

[cerulean cloud]

They were talking about it yesterday in the #dreamcatcher-chat

[cerulean cloud]

Thankfully it will be in my city

If it wasn’t I probably wouldn’t go

[lofty raptor]

Oh ok, that chat moves by so fast I miss a lot lol

[lone cipher]

I checked my bank account and didn't have a second charge. Check yours just in case but id say you're fine

[lone cipher]

If its Dami its always worth it

[craggy sundial]

hopefully it's just an email blip

[lone cipher]

I'd wager it is. Checked again this morning and nothing

And not to make people worry but worse comes to worse you can always dispute it

[tiny forge]

I'd say it's much more likely to be an email error than a possible double transaction error.

[cerulean cloud]

It never stops snowing here

[craggy sundial]

the forecast totally lied to us on Friday

I shouldn't be surprised because Chicago, but still

[silent gate]

We went through like 6 different snow showers lol

[craggy sundial]

I think the freezing rain and partial hail was just the insult to injury

not even in the forecast yet we got it. here's like 2 minutes of sun tho

[silent gate]

I even said "hopefully it'll stay like this" only for it to start snowing right away again

[craggy sundial]

cursed

[cerulean cloud]

Snow was fun as a kid

But got a bagful of goodies

I always go to an asian bakery and buy shit ton of baked goodies before I drive home

[austere zenith]

im going to another concert this saturday in chicago and so far its gunna be the same weather conditions 😪

shoutout to DC for preparing me for cold weather

[craggy sundial]

you thinking of waiting out there for any significant portion of time?

[austere zenith]

yep (‘: its another GA show

[silent gate]

Make sure to stay warm again

[fallow pollen]

Definitely stay warm and take the cold seriously. I ended up with cold stress. I didn't know that was a thing haha

[stoic plinth]

Same venue?

[cerulean cloud]

Lol thought it would be CIX but the 16th not a saturday

[cerulean cloud]

Chicago is draining my wallet

[austere zenith]

thank you! i will 🥰

[austere zenith]

nope this one is gunna be at the Metro!

[austere zenith]

tbh i was thinking about seeing CIX but i gotta financially recover

[fluid canopy]

If that’s all you want lol. I thought you’d go for an actual Polaroid. Those are hundreds

[austere zenith]

oh trust me ive got my eyes on a JiU polaroid rn hehe

[craggy sundial]

my writeup is live in #fan-creations along with a compilation of video and picture content for folks interested in re-living Chicago show, heh

[lone cipher]

Dude it gave me motivation to keep my chin up today. I was so friggin bored at work

[broken knoll]

I was shooting from the pit at the show, and I sent my photos over to DC management today for approval, so I'm going post an article and gallery here soon! 🤞

[craggy sundial]

Nice! I thought I saw you in the front there around, it seemed you had a ton of freedom to move around

[broken knoll]

I did! I try to stay centered for Kpop for the best group shots, so I was crouching to not block people

[placid dock]

Niceeee I saw you there! Do you shoot for DC a lot?

[broken knoll]

My first time photographing them! They're my favorite group so it was a dream come true. I usually photograph kpop and metal, the only others I've done so far are Monsta X, Omega X and Oneus. It's a bit tougher to get into kpop shows tbh

[placid dock]

Ohhhh that's awesome! I've been wanting to get into press shooting lately. Seems super fun but also a bummer you only usually get to shoot 3 songs haha.

And yeah I've heard a lot of companies are getting picky with outlets now, DCC included

[broken knoll]

Usually you only end up posting 20 pics. I'm glad for the limit or else I'd probably just shoot the whole time and miss the show 😅

[placid dock]

True! When I'm able to use my point and shoot from the crowd I walk away with close to 10,000 photos to sort through 😅

and you definitely end up watching most of the show through the screen/viewfinder if you're not careful hahaha

[molten saffron]

Oh hey youre the guy i spoke to

@eager mica is the weirdo i was talking about to you who shot nyc

[placid dock]

LOL

[broken knoll]

Hey dude, hope you had a fun night

[eager mica]

heh, enjoy the fun of waiting for MMT/DCC with approvals

[broken knoll]

So I've heard. Ready to get like 7 pics approved or something

[eager mica]

oh, they approve a bunch; they are just slow

I got about 70 percent of my photos approved last time I worked with them

about 30+

[broken knoll]

Right on. Friends shot Oneus with MMT and they approved only a handful. I went to their PR directly and got an album out next day

[eager mica]

You have to edit korean style though, so basically, the opposite of standard shows

[broken knoll]

I probably don't edit Korean style to be honest, but I've had no issues with the 3 other shows I've done

[eager mica]

DCC looooooooves korean style

which annoys me

[broken knoll]

No out of place hair, face straining, etc

[eager mica]

a lot of skin softening/lighting

that's the part that really throws me off

[broken knoll]

I retouch by day but not for concert stuff. I post such low res on our site that they can't really zoom in too far anyway

[eager mica]

yeah, I send them super low res (well, comparatively) too just to get around that

no sending them the 8k raws

[placid dock]

You mean they don't want to be able to see every pore?

[eager mica]

only some pores

sua is probably the hardest to shoot since she's so expressive

[broken knoll]

My camera loved Yoohyeon and Jiu apparently, because I have the most of them.

SuA is my bias and I have the least of her tbh

[eager mica]

handong stole my camera in NYC

[broken knoll]

I'm usually protective of my gear but honestly I'd let that happen lol

[eager mica]

she's just so easy to take photos of

[fallow pollen]

SuA neglected our side of the stage 😭

But I have great shots of just about everyone else

[placid dock]

I've been on the Jiu, Siyeon, and Handong train picture wise this tour

[fallow pollen]

I always get great shots of Jiu because she makes a point to be everywhere and pose wonderfully

[craggy sundial]

I was very sad at this

[fallow pollen]

Causally two SuA biases begging for attention on the other side 😂

I'm sad about it, but genuinely I have to remind myself barricade was probably so worth it.

That might be the short king in me talking though

Si blessed us so much though

[craggy sundial]

It was definitely Siyeon and Yoohyeon with Gahyeon not far behind them

[scarlet lichen]

me as a dongie stan probably gets not much from her

not like attention from jiu or any other members would discount it

i'd appreciate YASS, inb4 "don't look at it"

sry to interrupt out of context

[fallow pollen]

I got so much of jiu too.

I got a lot of dongie shots, but no fan interaction or anything

[scarlet lichen]

i wasn't there and i felt she was more reserved

jiu ofc connected hearts and sent more, as i saw

now i have no right to give an opinion on the show as a whole though

[fallow pollen]

Yeah that's the general vibe I got too

[cerulean cloud]

I got handong reaction after photo

[fallow pollen]

She was generally too center for reactions to us

[cerulean cloud]

Lmao

[fallow pollen]

I got cute things like this though

[cerulean cloud]

Fishnets

[fallow pollen]

Such good outfit statements

[cerulean cloud]

I like variety so I prob wouldn’t have liked the all suits that much

Illinois roads are the worst

[tiny forge]

I was on the right side. I think I remember a couple of nice Dongie interactions where she crouched down and did stuff for the fans over there

I also remember Yoohyeon on the right side giving a wild look before turning around and showing us her butt that we aren't supposed to look at.

[tiny forge]

Yeah. I remember that moment

[tropic shuttle]

The weather on friday was actually so ass 😭💀

[tiny forge]

Yeah

It didn't bother me too much, though

I'm used to cold weather haha

[silent gate]

Those tacos saved the day

[tiny forge]

omg those tacos were amazing

[silent gate]

Life changing

[white valve]

Not to be random but why did people start doing a gorilla chant for the encore? Had me thinking Mbaku was gonna show up😂

[tulip heron]

i think it was more like dog barking

it happened a few times

[heavy junco]

Yea dog barking has become a kpop concert staple for some reason

[lone cipher]

It was amazing

I hated the barking

[white valve]

What lmao that's so strange, I wonder what started that

It honestly sounds like a gorilla chant to me tho😂

[fluid canopy]

I was the light in the darkness with my OG 2018 lightstick in the front. Everyone else's got turned off and Im like I WILL BE THE LIGHT

some people looked at it like "what is that lightstick" lol

[white valve]

Me at BTS concerts with my V1 lighstick when V3 was out 😂

[heavy junco]

https://www.reddit.com/r/kpopthoughts/comments/yo8e1u/the_origin_of_barking_at_k_pop_concerts_a/&ved=2ahUKEwiA3trlmNf9AhWWHzQIHb3-AkAQjjh6BAgPEAE&usg=AOvVaw0ibNoe7g3wadnZEi_miR3-

[fluid canopy]

I guess not everyone knows or remembers the V1

[heavy junco]

Blame once apparently

[fluid canopy]

Oh, the fan that gave me my special dami interaction, i met her because of my V1 lightstick

she saw it and shouted "AH VINTAGE"

[white valve]

What's more perplexing to me is that they call it barking

[white valve]

That's cute that she noticed it!

[fluid canopy]

okay whats the etiquette for an idol making a heart at you? surely it isnt to bow back to them like i did

[heavy junco]

Typically you'd make a heart back

I'd look weird if I did though

[lone cipher]

Same

[heavy junco]

Then again I probably look real weird when I looked back and double hand waved at yoohyeon

Probably why she laughed at me

[lone cipher]

She liked it so you're cool dude

[lofty raptor]

Ah yes, a good vintage

[fluid canopy]

I dont know how to

id probably find a way to do it wrong

there was one time where i got waved to and just did a full on straight up arm wave back though LOL. Handong was waving at me.

[lone cipher]

Your energy was infectious. Id be betting they love getting and giving the energy during a performance. Like an amplifying effect.

[fluid canopy]

well when they came to the stage edge and started head banging too im like

i am loyally obligated to headbang and swing my lightstick just as hard as you are now and for the rest of this song

[lone cipher]

I was during Sahara

[fluid canopy]

I couldn’t even hold my camera right to film her at this moment cuz she started the thing and I was like here we goooo

Left hand light stick, jumping while trying to also record past person in front of me who was also jumping

Then phoneception of guy recording Jiu while I record dami

These were from SAHARA lol

And also that one part of reason where we have to go WHOAAAA

i dont care about my potato quality phone lmao

So glad there weren’t tall people in front of me for this

Here’s the whoa

Did my best to follow them on stage and stay long enough for cute moments

[silent gate]

Those videos are really good

[heavy junco]

Your videos better than mine

[fluid canopy]

I might be a Dami bias but I wanted to at least get the others near her in for a couple seconds here and there too hahah

[cerulean cloud]

Hard to keep camera still when im headbanging

[fluid canopy]

https://www.youtube.com/shorts/EkhSJdTKQSs

here i uploaded them lmao

https://www.youtube.com/shorts/PYQ_N_ehzPs

https://www.youtube.com/shorts/Jt1mlk1b3bY

@lone cipher @cerulean cloud in case you want to remember the moments!

[lone cipher]

Dammit im gonna cry

[heavy junco]

Huffle fluffle

[fluid canopy]

Lol I’m a Huffle puff don’t judge me

I got yoohyeon’s heart for you be happy

And siyeon leaning to stay in frame for the goodbye wave lol

[heavy junco]

[fluid canopy]

Dami also waved at me for a second so I was happy lol. I figured panning the camera around gave more chances for interactions and I was right

[lone cipher]

And Gahyeon being cute

[fluid canopy]

You really went from o7 to strongest bias

[lone cipher]

I'm screwed

[fluid canopy]

Prove your loyalty as I did and get patted on the head by your bias

[lone cipher]

She can't reach that high

[magic sage]

Or get yelled at by staff for something your bias did 😏

[lone cipher]

I doubt if I sit down she would touch my head. Im too tall

[magic sage]

I'm going to be useless at work tonight

[lone cipher]

Why?

[magic sage]

PCD, reliving the m&g and I'm just sore

I slept like 15 hours and my body still hates me

[lone cipher]

I know what you mean. Worked 5 hours and all I kept doing was thinking of the concert.

[magic sage]

It just be like that

[craggy sundial]

I just want to say it's raining and snowing again outside

[fluid canopy]

Yes

[craggy sundial]

Reminds me of the Friday concert weather

[magic sage]

Lol

[fluid canopy]

We are lucky we got through it alive lol

[magic sage]

It started snowing again right when my plane was about to take off

[fluid canopy]

Did you manage to get a SuA ticket in the end?

[austere zenith]

that wind will haunt me for as long as i live

[heavy junco]

Cold

[lone cipher]

Golly that wind def live up to the moniker of the Windy City

[magic sage]

Yeah I traded immediately with @silent gate

[lone cipher]

What

[fluid canopy]

I heard a couple of people saying they got one but I got pulled aside by some random fans outside who wanted me to identify their ticket’s signatures for them

Apparently it isn’t common to have every person’s signature memorized

I felt useful lol

[heavy junco]

Ehat you said about gah was cold

[lone cipher]

Shes small dammit

[silent gate]

[lone cipher]

I'm a behemoth

[fluid canopy]

Niceeee I’m glad you managed to get it too! We both ended up happy

[heavy junco]

Wait Iron isn't ot7 either now

[fluid canopy]

And we both got special moments hahah

[silent gate]

I'm going full hopper

[lone cipher]

We both got crushed and finally accepted it

[magic sage]

Also not Dongie biased, surprised

[fluid canopy]

I was lucky for this experience honestly

[silent gate]

It'll probably change again tomorrow

[fluid canopy]

Lol did you even care which ticket you got?

[heavy junco]

I feel like I can't leave yooh cause our interaction

[lone cipher]

If Gahyeon ever ruffled what counts as my hair im not exactly sure what I'd do. People like ruffling my hair all the time

[silent gate]

I didn't at first but then once I got dongie I didn't wanna give it up lol

[fluid canopy]

If it feels right then stay!

[lone cipher]

Why hop thats an Abs thing

[heavy junco]

But gah and siyeon

[fluid canopy]

I got Handong’s but that girl we ran into got Dami and traded me. Literally i might never see her again and she isn’t in our discord but she changed the game for me by becoming my wingwoman

[lone cipher]

She also found @magic sage in the market. So when I saw you two I knew at least by face who she was

[fluid canopy]

I’m gonna cry if that experience somehow didn’t make it into the photo lol

Watch them with hold it from me

[lone cipher]

I'm not cold im just new to being biased.

[heavy junco]

I'm not looking forward to the photo I was being a dork

[magic sage]

Oh that girl! Yeah I helped her find the bathroom

[fluid canopy]

What did you do lol?!

[heavy junco]

That was to cheri

[lone cipher]

I'm lost can you reiterate it all for me

[heavy junco]

I'll show you when we get them

[fluid canopy]

I don’t even know if I heard the shutter go off. I know there were dami hands on my head and I looked up and put my hands halfway up towards my hat before stopping myself like no wait that’s dami

[heavy junco]

Cheri said something about staying with yooh and I said what about gah and siyeon

[lone cipher]

Yeah she recommended the place we didn't go to the last night because it was like a 20 min walk in the wrong direction lol

[magic sage]

I was in front of the camera, it went off many times

[fluid canopy]

Looool they have their own bias fans just bias who you wanna bias

[heavy junco]

Can I bias all 3

[lone cipher]

Oh I thought you meant i was cold for saying shes small lol reaching my head to pat it or whatever Cheri said would be a challenge.

[fluid canopy]

Do you think it got it? She might have done it too soon

[lone cipher]

Sure thing Urza

[heavy junco]

No I did say that too.

[magic sage]

I'm not sure, SuA and I were waving at each other before the pictures

[lone cipher]

Am I supposed to kneel like im being knighted

[heavy junco]

Yes

[magic sage]

So it might have happened before

[lone cipher]

You can't pay me enough she will absolutely be insulted

[heavy junco]

Sir Alice

[lone cipher]

Nvm im listening

[fluid canopy]

I wonder if it’s exactly 50 days until we get the photo or if it might be longer

[heavy junco]

Said about 2 months

[fluid canopy]

I’m gonna look so dorky no matter what because I was confused

[lone cipher]

Ignore the part where I foolishly thought she would be insulted and tell me how I can make Sir Alice happen

[fluid canopy]

I lost a portion of my memory due to blacking out

[magic sage]

It's MMT so it might be 100 days

[fluid canopy]

[lone cipher]

I will absolutely become Sir Alice if that moment can be captured

[fluid canopy]

“Did this end up in the photo? All I remember are dami hands”

[lone cipher]

Someone give Gahyeon the big fucking sword Sua has in Scream to make this happen

[fluid canopy]

[magic sage]

I believe I was in front of Dongie for the pictures though, I didn't want to insert myself between the people in front of us since they weren't in our group of people

[fluid canopy]

At that moment I’m very glad dami switched from being number 1 to being 12. She does it randomly but on our day she decided to be 12

No regrets

[fluid canopy]

[lone cipher]

Yes that sword is perfect

I will become Sir Alice, the Loud

[silent gate]

I think I was infront of jiu

[lone cipher]

Explains the bias choice currently

[silent gate]

[lone cipher]

The order for the VIP was Dami, Gahyeon, oh shit I forgot

[magic sage]

Dami, Gahyeon, JiU, Dongie, SuA, Yoohyeon, Siyeon

[lone cipher]

I cant read past Gahyeon

[magic sage]

The last two might be wrong

Actually I cant read

[magic sage]

I will say, Dongie looked into the very depths of my soul during the high five

[heavy junco]

So we was all in front of our bias how fortuitous

[lone cipher]

Next time I will be knighted by Gahyeon. We will make this happen

[magic sage]

I wasn't lol

[heavy junco]

Jiu was in front in atl with dami at the end with yooh in the middle

[lone cipher]

She can use a broom to knight me since weapons not allowed

[heavy junco]

Aww I sorry

Least she held your hand

[magic sage]

[heavy junco]

Why did she though

[lone cipher]

Just Sua things

[magic sage]

I had a name badge for what she calls us in her Fromm chat

It made her so happy to see it

[heavy junco]

Oh that's what that was

I was wondering

[magic sage]

Oh yeah I think you guys were at the market when I explained what it was

[lone cipher]

I knew that was a smart idea when she told me.

You told me on the way back I think

[magic sage]

Yeah I think so

[lone cipher]

I was happy to hear it worked

You got a hell of a memory

[magic sage]

[lone cipher]

I endeavor to create such a memory but have no idea how to do so

But I was happy to make so many with you all

[craggy sundial]

my schedule in and around the concert was packed with other stuff otherwise I would have tried to do at least one meal with you all, sorry about that, just bad timing

[lone cipher]

We have next time dude. And we will make more memories

[silent gate]

Next time for sure

[magic sage]

There's always next time!

[lone cipher]

I feel like we became very close overall like we will all link up again next time

[heavy junco]

They seem to like Chicago so they'll be back

[magic sage]

Hopefully in better weather

[heavy junco]

[lone cipher]

I'm bringing some kind of heavy blanket we can sit on next time

[craggy sundial]

I lucked out since one of my linemates had a whole ass beanbag in their trunk

[lone cipher]

I've learned we need a way to properly rest

That was a touch too close for my taste

[silent gate]

It got rough towards the end

[lone cipher]

Thank goodness Cheri told me to wear pants i think I might have actually been hurt if I had tried to just do shorts as usual

[magic sage]

You would have been not great

Remember your hands?

[lone cipher]

Trust me, I learned a lot and that was one of them. My neck was the real problem. I somehow didn't get sick

[heavy junco]

It was 30 mins into the actual concert before my hand got warm

I legit thought I had early hypothermia

[silent gate]

Yeah that was scary

[heavy junco]

Also need better shoes/insoles

[lone cipher]

We have plans to be better prepped for next time

Lol siyeon had a full on 7 second staring contest with me after the photo shoot where she didn’t speak and I didn’t speak but I was walking backwards while smiling at her and then she suddenly made a funny face and I started laughing. She flashed a quick smile and then turned to the next person

[lone cipher]

Siyeon wins.

[fluid canopy]

After / while I was showing them my insomnia badge and got all the points / hearts hand reactions and smiles.

When I first held out the badge Dami squinted at it and leaned closer to look. I shoulda gone closer again but I stayed where I was and held it out more instead and declared “insomnia first generation badge”

I missed my other chance lol

But then she smiled and was like “OHH!” And thumbs upped it. SuA and Jiu recognized it immediately too

[lone cipher]

I felt happy wearing my Celestial Dreams badge and my tour hat to Commander today

[craggy sundial]

this sounds eerily familiar
