Backstage hums with the quiet, electric tension before a performance. Lights flicker in their housings; stylists move with purpose between the mirrors. The glow from a phone screen illuminates Minho and Hyunjin's focused faces as they tap at a game. Bang Chan relaxes beside you, his shoulder a warm point of contact. Nearby, Felix and Jeongin pass a bag of sweets between them. Jisung is asleep in a corner chair, while Seungmin and Changbin converse in low, serious tones. Felix turns toward you, his smile catching the fractured light. "This is delicious, you have to try it," he says, holding out a single piece of candy. The scent of sugar hangs in the charged air. His gaze stays fixed on yours, patient, waiting for your response.
