Summary:

Yoongi [1:31 PM]
Hi everyone

Seokjin [1:32 PM]
Who are you and what are your intentions with my son, Kim Namjoon?

Namjoon [1:33 PM]
Oh god

 

(Namjoon and Yoongi are roommates. Namjoon is suddenly and deeply afraid he might be homophobic. Those two things might be related.)

Notes:

(See the end of the work for notes.)

Chapter Text

To: Jin-hyung 

 

Seokjin [10:00 AM] 

Is the new roommate moving in today?

Namjoon [10:01 AM] 

Yeah

Later this afternoon I think

I said I’d help

Seokjin [10:02 AM] 

No one warned him about your clumsy streak huh

I’ve watched you rip an entire door of its hinges before Joon-ah

Did you mention that fact in your roommate ad?

Namjoon [10:03 AM] 

No

Should I have?

Seokjin [10:04 AM] 

Yeah maybe

Seems like important information

But what do I know?

I’m just your all knowing, amazingly helpful hyung

 

Namjoon [10:05 AM] 

[Eyeroll emoji]

 

Seokjin [10:06 AM] 

I’m choosing to ignore that out of the goodness of my heart

 

Seokjin [10:10 AM] 

Do you want me to come help?

I have the afternoon off

I could bring Jungkook too

You know how much he likes lifting heavy things to impress his hyungs

Namjoon [10:11 AM] 

No I think it’s okay

But if you get a really frantic phone call from…

Seokjin [10:12 AM] 

I’ll keep my ringer on

Good luck!

Fighting!

Don’t break any bones or any of your new roommates' precious earthly possessions!

Or break your new roommate for that matter

Namjoon [10:13 AM] 

[Thumbs up emoji]

To: Seokjinnie and the five babies

Seokjin [5:11 PM] 

So Joonie

How’d it go with the move-in and the new roommate

Is he secretly a serial killer?

Do we need to establish a code word in case he’s secretly a serial killer and you need to be saved?

Namjoon [5:12 PM] 

He’s not a serial killer hyung don’t worry

No code words necessary

…I did drop a box directly on my toe though

Taehyung [5:13 PM]

Do we need to drive you to the emergency room?

Jimin [5:14 PM] 

Did he run for the hills?

Do we need to put up another roommate listing?

Namjoon [5:15 PM] 

No no nothing broke

Not even me

Just a little bit bruised 

And embarrassed 

Seokjin [5:16 PM] 

Miracles do happen

Namjoon [5:17 PM] 

Yeah

He was cool about it too

He seems just kind of cool overall actually

His name is Min Yoongi

Jimin [5:18 PM] 

I’m gonna look him up

Namjoon [5:18 PM] 

Jimin do not cyber stalk him

Aw man

I wasn’t fast enough 

Jimin [5:19 PM]

Too late hyung!

 

Jin [5:20 PM]

As if our Jiminie would have ever passed up the opportunity to cyber stalk someone just because you asked 

 

Namjoon [5:21 PM] 

Jimin

Please

Don’t do this 

 

Jimin [5:22 PM]

Hey he’s kinda cute

Namjoon [5:23 PM] 

Please leave him alone

I just met him

It seems like we have some stuff in common

He works in music too

He said he’s a producer

He seems really cool

Please don’t scare him off already I’m begging you

 

Jimin [5:24 PM]

How could I possibly scare anyone off?

 

[several people are typing]

 

Jimin [5:25 PM]

Actually no one answer that

Jungkook [5:26]

I’m sitting next to Jimin-hyung right now and he’s scrolling through your roommate’s Instagram

He’s all the way back in 2018 right now

He’s giggling in a slightly evil way

I’d be a little scared if I were you right now Joon-hyung

 

Taehyung [5:27]

Jimin just sent me 15 text messages  and they’re all screenshots of Yoongi-ssi’s Instagram posts from like 10 years ago

 

Namjoon [5:28 PM] 

Jimin c’mon man 

Hoseok [5:29 PM]

I looked him up on soundcloud!

Namjoon [5:30 PM] 

Why would you do that

Hoseok [5:31 PM]

Well I was going to do it on Instagram but Jiminie’s got that covered

His music is pretty cool!

Go look up Agustd right now guys

Namjoon [5:32 PM] 

You guys suck

Why are you all like this

Taehyung [5:33 PM]

You love us

Namjoon [5:34 PM] 

Yeah

I guess

Against my better judgement 

 

Jimin [5:35 PM]

Hey he has a twitter too!

 

Namjoon [5:36 PM] 

Jimin I’m going to block you

 

Jimin [5:37 PM]

You would never

To: Min Yoongi-ssi (new roommate)

 

Namjoon [7:00 PM] 

Hi Yoongi-ssi 

I’m going to go out really quick to pick up some dinner

Can I bring you anything? 

 

Yoongi [7:01 PM]

Namjoon-ssi

I’m in my room right now 

You could ask in person you know

I don’t bite 

 

Namjoon [7:02 PM] 

Oh ha right

 I know

I just didn’t want to interrupt if you’re working right now 

 

Yoongi [7:03 PM] 

Thank you for being considerate but you don’t have to worry about stuff like that 

A knock on the door won’t ruin my creative process you know 

And dinner would be great

I’ll have whatever you’re having 

 

Namjoon [7:04 PM] 

[thumbs up emoji] 

 

Yoongi [7:05 PM]

Oh and

You can call me hyung if you want 

We live together afterall

I’d rather us be comfortable than be formal

If that’s okay with you 

 

Namjoon [7:06 PM] 

That’d be great! 

I mean 

That would be pretty cool 

I mean 

 

Namjoon [7:07 PM] 

Yeah actually that’s what I meant 

That would be pretty cool 

 

Yoongi [7:08 PM]

Cool

Let me know when you’re on the way back 

I’ll set out some plates for us 

We can eat together and get to know each other a little more 

If you want to 

 

Namjoon [7:09 PM] 

I’d really like that 

Thanks hyung! 

 

Yoongi [7:10 PM]

:)
