Elena tried to suppress her smile when Seojin draped her arm over her. She knew she was entirely too close to the camera for fans to not notice a reaction if she had one.
"F(x)?" she said, thinking it over. "I really like NU ABO or Electric Shock, but I've never practiced either. So long as our fans are willing to cut me a little slack, I'd be happy to try one of those." Elena looked to Seojin for her opinion.

Seojin thought for a second and scanned the comments. She saw some excitement over F(x), but also some comments about them being an old group. She smiled a little bit and said, "I'm good with 'Electric Shock' if you want, or we could pick something from Mamamoo if you'd rather, I know you know and like some of their stuff. Maybe we should pick something that you're comfortable with, especially since you're one of our vocals, I want to let you show what you're best at!"
She noticed that there was definitely a little more excitement in the chat at the mention of Mamamoo. She wasn't particularly surprised, though she kind of wished that the fans had shown the same level of excitement over the idea of an F(x) song.
She looked at Elena, squeezing her shoulder a little bit and said, "What do you think? 'Electric Shock,' a Mamamoo song, something else? I guess we could also always go for each of us picking something to sing and singing our own song together or something."

Elena made a mental note to practice an f(x) with Seojin in the future, the older girl seemed to really like them. "It looks like the fans are in favor of Mamamoo-sunbaenim, how about 'You're the best' or 'Decalcomanie'? Those are good songs and they showcase vocals."
She leaned in to check the chat but purposely bumped her thigh against Seojin's off camera to show her support.

Based on what she was seeing in the chat and her own preferences, she smiled at Elena and said, "Mamamoo's 'You're the Best' sounds perfect, and I think that the fans agree."
She worked on pulling up the track for them to sing, cueing it up to a part that had some fun vocals, included the chorus and didn't have any of the rap. She pressed her leg against Elena's in return, glad that the fans couldn't see their legs with where they were sitting, so she didn't have to think about it.
Once she had the backtrack set up, she smiled at Elena again and said, "Alright, here we go! In 3-2-1," then she started the music. She liked this song and was happy taking the lower vocal stretches and the parts where people would sing together. Harmonizing with Elena was nice, and they'd had a good amount of practice doing it at this point.
Once they'd gotten through about 30-45 seconds of singing, and Seojin found a natural pause point, she stopped the music, looking towards the chat to see the response. She'd at least been happy with her own singing.

Elena felt a sliver of excitement run up her spine when Seojin pressed her leg back against her own. She was happy to be here and that her partner was Seojin.
She took up her position and sang the song, glad she already loved Mamamoo and regularly sang their songs. Once they finished she linked arms with Seojin, excited," you were amazing on that harmony unnie!" She turned to the fans and said, "we've worked on harmonies before but that one was the best!"
She sat back down near the computer and forced herself to let go of Seojin. She leaned in the read the chat, "I'm so glad you all liked it. I know I had a lot of fun! Is there anything else you want us to do?"

Seojin smiled at the comments, full of praise for the two of them singing together. It made her feel proud of all the work that she'd put into singing. She told Elena, "Thank you, you sounded amazing."
She read a few of the fan comments that especially praised Elena aloud, adding, "Thank you," or in some cases, "Isn't her voice amazing," after them.
She couldn't help but smile a little bit at some of the requests that popped across the screen, but she had to resist the feeling of blushing at one that just said "Skinship!"
She didn't acknowledge the comment, but she did resettle her arm around Elena's shoulders. Elena liked touch, and that was something that the fans had already realized. She spotted a question in English that she liked, and read it, "What are things that you're excited for now that you've debuted?"
She translated the question into Korean as well, and gave her answer in both English and Korean before turning to Elena to answer and also provide the information in the languages that Seojin didn't speak herself, "I was really excited to get to help on the choreography for our debut, and I'm really excited looking forward to do more work on choreography! I'll try to keep you updated on what I work on with that. Other than that, I'm really excited to be getting the chance to go on shows and perform for all of you and with my group!"
She nudged Elena and added, "What about you?"
She was keeping an eye on the clock now, not sure what else might get requested or asked, and knowing that they were expected to end the live by a certain time, they had a while left though. At least the reception had been good so far.

Elena grinned and snuggled in a little closer to Seojin under the guise of leaning closer to the screen to read it. "Unnie, you praise me too much, doesn't she spoil me?" she addressed the question to the fans.
When Seojin sent the question her way she had to take a minute to think about it. "Hmmm, I'm looking forward to being on stage and making you all smile. I love to dance and sing, so if I can do that and make people happy by doing that, then that's the dream for me." She translated her and Seojin's answers into the languages Seojin didn't speak.
"I'm also looking forward to working with some of the other artists and trainees here," she thought about Felix and wondered what they could do that wouldn't absolutely scandalize the fanbase.

Seojin laughed and said, "No, I'm praising you only as much as you deserve."
A little five minute warning popped up in the corner of the stream, and she pointed in out subtly to Elena. Just then, she also spotted a comment that made her smile. The comment started in Spanish, but the fan had translated it as well, Elena!!!! You should teach Seojin-unnie to say/sing something in Spanish for the fans!!!
She pointed the comment out to Elena to read, smiling at the thought of it. It seemed like a good thing to do towards the end of the live. She was enjoying the live, and looking forward to further ones, and it made her happy that the fans seemed to like her cuddly interactions with Elena. It made her feel a little more secure.

Elena crinkled her nose like a rabbit at Seojin and her praise. She nodded subtly at the five minute warning.
Elena perked up at the suggestion to have Seojin speak Spanish. She also thought that it might be super hot, but pushed that thought aside. She knew what she wanted Seojin to say, but that probably wasn't going to fly on their live so she turned to the fans, "what should I teach her?"
She was overwhelmed by the replies, some in Korean wanting a translation and others in Spanish. Those in Spanish were far closer to what she wanted her to say. "Okay, I'll teach you something to say to the fans," she prefaced. Even though she wanted to words to be for her, she made sure the fans knew it was for them. "Repeat after me, eres el amor de mi vida" she said each word slowly, prompting Seojin to follow along, then said it again as a full sentence.

Seojin watched Elena carefully as she spoke, repeating the words one at a time after her, and then the whole phrase a few times, watching Elena's face closely trying to see if she got it right. She thought about the words and said, "Amor is love right? And vida is life? I don't recognize the other words though, what does it mean?"
She looked towards the camera finally, and repeated the phrase directly to the fans, trusting that Elena wouldn't have given her something too strange to say, especially since it looked like the phrase was actually in the chat. There were a lot of people putting hearts and thank yous in the chat though, so it looked like whatever Elena had chosen was a hit. She wondered if it was something that she actually was glad that she'd said looking straight at Elena first, that she'd rather say to Elena than the fans. She figured that she'd probably find out momentarily.
She glanced back at Elena and winked, saying, "It looks like your choice was popular!"

Elena tried to suppress a giddy giggle when Seojin said those word while staring directly at her. She placed the backs of her hands on her cheeks to cool them and smiled when she heard Seojin repeat the words to the fans.
Elena turned to the camera, still trying to cool her cheeks, "Seojin-unnie is super cool, right? Doesn't your heart just race hearing her say that?" she fanned herself a few times, being overdramatic to make it seem like her earlier genuine reaction was intended for their audience.
She grinned, "you're right. Amor is love and vida is life. What you said was 'you are the love of my life.'" Elena made sure to say the words to Seojin, looking her in the eyes as she said them. She turned back to the chat, "Everyone had such great ideas, thank you for helping me. I'll try to teach her more Spanish for the future."

Seojin realized that she really liked the reaction that she'd gotten out of Elena. She wanted to get that reaction again when she got the chance. She turned and repeated the phrase one more time for the fans and said in English, "Thank you for having Elena teach me that one! It's a good phrase to know for sure, and I'll make sure to remember it."
She felt vaguely pleased with herself for knowing some of the words already, the benefits of having spent those four years in California showed up at the strangest times.
There were tons of comments in the chat box agreeing with Elena that their hearts were racing, and Seojin felt rather proud of herself. She figured that the managers would probably approve of the effect that that comment had had on the chat as well, even if she was honestly happiest with the response from Elena.
She told the fans, "I really look forward to learning more Spanish from Elena in the future, so you should keep thinking of things that she should teach me! We're nearly out of time though, it was really great to get to chat with all of you today, and thank you for supporting J.B.N.!"
She glanced at Elena and then said, "We should do some poses for the fans to screenshot or take photos from to wrap things up. Make hearts together and stuff, or maybe play the pose game where we try to match each other's poses?"
She'd seen other idols do that on live streams that she'd watch for research, and it seemed to go over well with fans. She saw several responses of "Pose game!" in the chat and turned to Elena and asked, "What do you think?"

Elena was happy she'd managed to deflect some of her blushing onto the fans and she thought she'd covered it up nicely. She was happy that everyone was so enamored with Seojin. She liked that everyone else liked Seojin so much, she wanted to share her unnie's charms with everyone. Plus, she wasn't sure she could handle it if she turned all those charms in her direction again.
"It has been fun, I can't wait to do another one. We can do the pose game, but you'll have to explain how to do it, I don't think I understand."

Seojin grinned as comments started popping up with, "Yes, pose game!" and various comments about what they should do.
She pointed a few of these out to Elena and said, "So it's kind of like seeing if we're thinking the same thing. You see how people have given prompt words like 'heart' or 'excited,' so we do a 3, 2, 1 countdown and make the pose that we think of for that word and hold it for a few moments so that the viewers can catch the picture, and the goal is to try to do as many poses the same as possible."
She pointed out a comment that said, "Love!" and said, "Why don't we try starting with this one? I'll count down and read it, and then we'll both make a pose that we think matches for it?"
She gave Elena a moment to think and respond before she counted down, "3, 2, 1, Love!"
She held up her hand towards Elena, making half a heart, and hoping that Elena would either have the same idea or notice fast enough to complete the heart with her. It seemed like something that the fans would like, but also that felt good to do with Elena. She figured that she'd let Elena pick some out, and maybe pick out some innocuous ones, and then their time would be up.

Elena nodded as she took in the rules, "that sounds fun. I think we might not be great the first time, but hopefully we'll get better," she told the fans.
She nodded at the word "love" and debated what to do. When Seojin counted down she quickly leaned in to hug her unnie. Only when she had pulled the other girl flush against her did she realize that Seojin had been trying to make an over the head heart with her.
"Sorry," she said, letting Seojin go. "In my culture love is a lot more touchy-feely."
