Elena had her eyes closed as she danced to the music blasting in her headphones. She could hear her mama's voice in her head, ' if you play that music too loud you'll lose your hearing,' but it was easy to tune out with her music so loud. While lost in her dancing she failed to notice the JBN manager standing at her door talking to her. Truly, the manager had just come in and began talking without getting Elena's attention and droned on, reading from the clipboard in their hand. Elena opened her eyes as she began to belt along with the song and gave both herself and the manager a shock. "I'm so sorry," she said as she hurriedly removed the headphone. "Did you need me for something?" The manager huffed a little, annoyed they had to explain everything again. "You're going to be doing a live with Anya in about 20 minutes so get ready." Elena lit up, "with Anya?l" She was excited, she hadn't been able to spend much time with Anya since she had joined the group. She had been too busy trying to catch up and get acclimated, and then there was also Seojin. Seojin had occupied a lot of her brain space since she'd arrived. "I'm excited to spend time with her. I haven't really gotten to chat with her yet." The manager quirked an eyebrow, a single thought of doubt crossing their mind before shaking it away. "You two are both happy people, so two of you together should be fun for fans. I'll be tuned in and just outside the room, go get ready." Elena nodded and looked around the room, unsure what "ready" meant. She was already in comfy yet stylish pants and a normal looking top, "I'm ready?" she asked. The manager looked her up and down and nodded, "that's fine," they said before heading off to share the news with Anya. ( Anya Young) |

You'll be doing a live with Elena in 15 minutes, please get ready to do that. Anya groaned, not moving from her spot on the dance studio floor; she didn't want to do a live with Elena. She had managed for so long to not do a live with her. Maybe that was why management was making them do it now. Fans would think they didn't get along. 'They'd be right.' She thought stubbornly, pouting as she trudged up to her dorm.
Well, maybe saying they didn't get along would be stretching it, but Elena was like her so much it sometimes felt like she wasn't needed in the group. Compared to Elena, she wasn't even the only outgoing happy virus in the group. Maybe it would have been better if Elena had been the maknae. She got to the dormitory door and mentally scolded herself. She had to stop thinking like that. It wouldn't make things better to distance herself from the others just because she didn't feel as good as them. She was brought into the company because she had promise and could improve, and that meant she just had to wait and be patient, her time would come. She opened the door and slipped off her shoes, taking off her jacket so she was just in a tshirt, and then fixing her hair in the bathroom and washing her face, putting on some light makeup. She found Elena in the room and gave her a smile, "hi Elena-unni, are we ready?" She sat down on the bed next to, though not close to, Elena.

After the manager had left, Elena took a look around the room and tidied it to the best of her ability.
She had just finished her panic cleaning and sat on her bed when Anya came into the room. Elena grinned, "welcome!"
Elena watched as the manager came in to set up the tripod for the live, "I am ready. Are you excited? I realized we've never done a live with just the two of us, how is that possible?" She scooted herself closer to Anya, unaware that the distance had been left intentionally.

Anya frowned for a moment as the distance between them closed, but quickly turned it into a smile. "I guess we've just been doing more lives as a whole group or with others." She replied simply. She tried to remind herself to be open minded about this. Just because she saw Elena as her rival in many aspects, didn't mean she actually was. They were on the same team, and had been since Elena joined the company. She reminded herself the company wanted her to be in the group, and the CEO even mentioned he liked her personality and how warm she was to everyone.
"Okay, I think I'm ready, too." She finally told the manager, putting her hands in her lap. She'd be fine if Elena decided to cuddle, but wasn't going to initiate it herself.
"What do you want to call it?" The manager asked them, working on setting up the live now that the camera was set up.
Anya thought a moment, "how about maknae chat? Or something? With our animal emojis!" She suggested, looking to Elena to see if she had any ideas.

Elena noticed the frown on Anya's face but it disappeared so quickly that she brushed it off, assuming she'd imagined it. When she was much younger, she had been worried everyone secretly hated her and only pretended to like her, but her parents quickly disabused her of that notion, so if she ever saw a negative expression on someone's face she thought it was either not related to her or a figment of her imagination.
"I'm okay with whatever Anya wants to call it. You know my Korean is still on the..." Elena wiggled her hand to signify "iffy."
Elena watched the manager input the name "Maknae chat" followed by their animal emojis, then they gave them a countdown before starting the live.
"Hello beautiful people!" Elena said, her energy multiplied by at least three with the camera on. "I'm Elena of JBN," she put an arm around Anya to encourage her to speak next so they could finish their greeting.

Anya noticed the amount of people watching jumped almost instantaneously from about 10 people to over a 100, and she hesitated for a moment, but recovered quickly. She ignored the arm around her and smiled to the camera, "And I'm the maknae Anya." She hesitated for a moment, wondering what to say while the chat was just saying hi. She said to a few of the comments saying where they were watching from. She also noticed Remi join the chat, but he didn't say anything. Typical big brother, has to watch everything I do... She thought, rolling her eyes.
"Do we have any prompts for this live?" She whispered quietly to Elena, realizing she was at a loss as to what else to say beside the hellos to other countries. She thought through the lives she had seen sunbaes do, asking the chat hesitantly, "chat, has anyone been listening to any good songs lately?"

"Thanks for joining us today for this live," Elena said, doing her best to read the chat. She glanced at Anya when she mentioned prompts, gave a tiny shake of her head and realized that indeed, neither of them knew what they were supposed to do on this live.
"That's a good question Anya, have you listened to anything you liked recently?" She looked at the chat but because most of it was in Korean, she couldn't read and translate it fast enough. "Sorry everyone, I'm still not great at reading Korean fast so I'm going to have to ask Anya to help me with a lot of the chat."
Elena mouthed a sorry and a thank you to Anya. This really wasn't well thought out, she looked past the camera to the manager to give a silent plea for cues.

"Me?" Anya mouthed to Elena, feeling panic spike. Though thinking about it rationally, she probably did read Korean better than Elena. She was borrowing Remi's books well before she had spoken more than a few fractured sentences with Tai.
She took a deep breath and focused on the chat, and caught quite a few people mentioning the new Yuseong song, and she commented, "It seems a lot of people like Yuseong-sunbaenim's new song. I have to agree, it's really good! Don't you think so too, Elena?" She said, looking at Elena. She kept scanning the chat, seeing some other answers, and muttering them, but not pointing them out quite as loudly as she had their company sunbaes' song. "I see a lot of people also liked Le Sserafim's new song, and &Team..."
