I'm surrounded by freaks 
 
now, Baby did not come to this conclusion lightly, but it seemed like the only logically solution to his very important and very real issue. And his unromantic ass wanted to throw up. 
 
but its obviously everyone else fault, because nothing is his fault. 
 
At first, it was Jinu’s little situationship with the HUNTR/X leader, that ended up with his tragic ass 2016 Watpad love sacrifice for his repulsive ‘girlfriend’- that 
 
by the way turned out to be half demon? Like gurl, pick a side. 
 
then it got worse when Mystery managed to bag the Baddie known as Zoey, who showers him in smooches and headpats- turning the (in Babys humble opinion) most actually interesting and chill Saja boy beside from himself into a mushy, clingy puppy. 
 
Come on man, i trusted you, tf happened to ‘bros before hoes’?? 
 
And then, the pink traitors known as Abby and Romance have... something going on with that Mira chick- actually not quite sure what they have going on, or if Mira is even aware of it. Whatever it is, the pink haired lovebirds have traded all of their dignity for a goth woman. And it would be almost respectable if it wasn’t so pathetic. 
 
im not even going to even going to question that... situation- for my own dignity 
 
Now, in Baby’s opinion of his co-workers, because of course his opinion is always correct- the Saja boys are traitors to him now, falling for a couple of head pats and cuddles over their demon brethernin. How absolutely pathetic. 
 
it seems Baby is the only one here with a brain, a mind of his own around a bunch of horndogs. Freaks, absolute animals- and in mystery's weird barking thing, ‘guess that's not too far off.  
 
He’s had one too many walk in’s on rumi and jinu “innocently kissing” -Yeah right-  
OR Mystery giving repulsively sweet neck kisses and nibbles to Zoey –DIS-CUST-ANG-  
OR Romance and Abby spread out on the couch with a very angry Mira squirming within the pile. 
 
oKAY, im gonna throw up thinking about it.. 
 
In The Saja boy’s nice-ass apartment, (underneath Huntr/x’s ugh) Everything was fine, everything was peaceful even- if you could ignore the heinous crimes happening across the living room as if it had every right to happen. 
 
Jinu and ‘little miss demon princess’ sitting painfully close to each other on the couch, whilst awkwardly far away so only a single finger is interlocked because neither of them could get a grip on ‘feelings’. 
 
Mystery Laid in Zoeys lap, basically offering himself up on a silver platter like the simp he is. More then happily listening to Her ramblings of god know what- something about turtles? idk 
 
and the RoMirAbby trio... still not quite sure actually. But this woman has these men on a fucking leash, even if she doesn’t want to. 
 

Baby is sat in the middle of this high school locker room lookin situation, the most deadpan look on his face as he’s slumped against the couch. Why was he even here? Everyone else was happy preoccupying themselves with each other, its like Hes watching over them as a very judgy rich person's cat. 
 
He grips at his jelly pouch slightly harder at the sound of Zoey leaning down and smooching (half asleep) Mystery’s face. He almost wanted to gag. 
 
The silence is deafening... to him atleast. Everyone else seems to be more than happy to “kiss” and “cuddle” or whatever in silence, giving Baby more than enough time to rethink every life choice and death-glare his comrades who have fallen ill with the sickness of being fucking simps. 
 
so he is once again reminded 
 
I’m surrounded by freaks 
... 
 
.... 
 
The sound of Romance making Kissy-faces at Mira in their dog-pile of a cuddle cut into the silence the moment it was starting to become slightly bearable. 
 
“IM surrounded by freaks” 
 
Baby muttered shamelessly, but everyone heard and to turned to look at him 
 
... 
 
“huh, what?-” 
 
“this is worse then Gwi-ma 's hell” 

Chapter Text

After HUNTR/X had stopped the Saja boy’s plan, killed Gwi-ma and saved the world or whatever, the girls for whatever reason decided they were redeemable. It was probably a decision made so it did look like HUNTR/X straight up killed them on stage, and maybe a little bit of Jinu begging. 

Thanks for that man... 

The switch up from being demon murderers to actual idols, whilst basically going though Gwi-ma rehabilitation was admirably a little difficult for the boys. Some were confused but grateful to get a second chance and see how the world has changed since becoming a demon. Others not so much... 

Yeah, Baby would have much rather he actually died on the stage 

Baby wanted nothing more to do with the HUNTR/X girls, but the other boys seemingly wanted everything to do with them. Maybe a little too much to do with them 

OKAY, Gross, never mind.. 

The “Gwi-ma rehab” essentially included the Saja boys ended up living in the same huge skyscraper as HUNTR/X, well just below them to be exact, (ugh, gross) and the whole place was rebranded to have the two idol groups work closely together. This made it easier for the girls to keep an eye on them, help them, and to the outside world, it was just one massive rebrand. 

It sucked, everything sucked. It was like he was under another Gwi-ma again. Okay, maybe the girls weren’t as bad as Gwi-ma but he was still in a different form of hell. 

That least the HUNTR/X girls have all the good snacks.. 

Speaking of snacks, that's exactly what Baby was doing in the HUNTR/X’S upper half of the building. Raiding the fridge, because apparently being away from the world for so long means you don’t know all the new food brands and what’s good anymore. Who would have guessed? The food world has really changed since his life, and Baby has been indulging himself in it since the Saja boys debuted Soda Pop. 

Its like the dead of night, the only thing lighting up the massive kitchen was the even bigger fridges light as baby opened it. He blinked to let his eyes adjust, Hell’s lighting was always a little gloomy, so lights always fucked with him. 

Immediately Baby reaches for his favorite jelly pouches he’s pretty sure is Zoey’s. He takes a bottle of straight up hot sauce, (which he discovered he liked from that gameshow) poured himself a greedily large bowl of sugary cereal and a cup of Miras spicy noodle.  

The only thing I would ever agree with Mira on is her spicy noodles. 

As much as Baby hates being well... Babied, His not so guilty pleasure will always be food, more accurately: sugary and spicy things. Anything flavorful. Since Qwi-ma's meals were... lacking, both in flavor and quantity, Babys been fucking loving stuffing his face now that he can. 

He wasn’t used to having endless access to food, so self-control was out the window.  

The lights flicked on... 

-OH SHIT THE LIGHTS FLICKED ON 

Baby didn’t hear the footsteps, too busy pouring his noodles. He hissed at the sudden brightness, almost dropping the bowl to cover and rub his eyes. Fuck that hurt his eyes and head. Why are modern day lights so fucking bright? 

“oh, it's just you...” a tired but equally annoyed feminine voice groaned from the hallway. Rumi, baby was sure it was her even if he hadn’t opened his eyes. Ah shit, busted by the leader herself. 

Never mind, I'd take Gwi-ma over this 

When baby blinked his eyes open to look at her. Her braid was still in, in perfect condition too. That blue dog thing lazily stood behind her, it’s bug ass eyes staring in nothingness. She was wearing those stupid teddy bear and train PJ’s, which although where ugly, they told Baby that he had indeed woken her up. 

Ah Shit... 

“what? Does Jinu not feed you?” 

Baby just glanced at her. He was about to make a comment or just keep eating because he really did not give a fuck when another figure joined Rumi behind her. Babys expression faltered for half a second when he saw HIS leader, jinu, join them. 

“huh?... oh Baby, seriously?” 

Jinu’s expression was just as tired as her, but instead of annoyance, he had that “im not mad, just disappointed” look on his face. Because this was NOT the first time Baby had snuck out for midnight snacks and woken up the whole damn skyscraper. The fact they both came from the same room told Baby they had been in her room sleeping together. 

Wait- not like sleeping SLEEPING with each other, like actually asleep- whatever you know what i mean. Still gross tho 

Baby thought it was gross enough that they dare be within 5 feet of each other, but when Jinu walked up behind Rumi and wrapped his arms around her, his head resting on the top of her braid. Baby wanted to gag, and he suddenly lost his already very low interest in the conversation. 

Jinu opened his mouth to speak but Baby already stopped giving a fuck and –POOF'ed out of there with a puff of pink sparkly smoke. The sparkles being citrusy of romance. 

“Godamnit baby-” 

------- 

Baby ‘poof’ed back into the Saja boy’s lounge, his hands full of his (defiantly not stolen) junk food feast. Where hopefully he’d find some peace and quiet. But Baby had forgotten that the gods hated him with a passion so of course he wouldn’t find any. 

His first thought was that he wasn’t alone. He could hear talking, more specifically another feminine voice. Ugh 

Why can’t HUNTR/X stick to their place? 

Baby knew it was that American chick Zoey, she was the only one willing to come into the Saja boy’s place this late at night. And it was definalty for- 

“Who’s a good boy?” 

...Mystery 

Baby let out the most disappointed sigh he thinks he’s ever had. The voice came from behind him on the couch. And he was really dreading turning around now. 

Reluctantly, but also slightly curiously, Baby turned to face the two and he was immediately hit with the most disgusting, repulsive, fucking gross thing Baby could possibly fathom 

Cuddling. 

Oh the horror, the fucking crime Baby had the misfortune of being witness to. 

On the couch, Zoey laid comfortably across the cushions with one leg drooping off the side. Her hand in the hair of a very content Mystery. Said Mystery was laying on top of her, his head on his chest and legs tangling with hers.  

Thats it, HUNTR/X  should have just killed me, Im done, Gwi-ma I'm ready to be taken now

“...are those my jelly’s?” 

Baby didn’t notice he was staring until the Criminal herself spoke. It took him a moment to realize what she said. Oh yeah.. They were totally was hers
