beomgyu: (laughs) "Right! So then, I said--"
hueningkai: "Beomgyu!"
taehyun: "I'll catch you later."
beomgyu: "Sure. Don't forget we have to finish the chem project tomorrow."
taehyun: "I know, I put it in my bullet journal."
hueningkai: "Hey Beomgyu."
beomgyu: "Hi..."
hueningkai: "Kai. Hueningkai."
beomgyu: "No, I know who you are. And..."
y/n: "[y/n]."
beomgyu: "I know. So... what's up?"
hueningkai: "The varsity basketball list was posted yesterday."
beomgyu: "Right..."
hueningkai: "We heard a certain person's not on it."
beomgyu: "You're friends with Soobin, right?"
hueningkai: "Yeah. He doesn't know we're asking but... we want to know. Why didn't he make it on the team?"
beomgyu: "Um....look, it happens. Some people just... don't make it on the team."
hueningkai: "So he really didn't make it on the team?"
beomgyu: "...yeah."
y/n: "Look me straight in the eye and tell me he didn't make it on the team."
beomgyu: "I--"
y/n: "Look at me."
(silence)
y/n: "Beomgyu, I like to give people the benefit of the doubt. But Soobin is my friend. Our friend. If something's going on, something wrong, we want to know about it. Did he make it on the team or not?"
beomgyu: ".....yes. Okay? Yes, he made it on the team."
hueningkai: "Then why isn't he on the list?"
beomgyu: "I'm not supposed to tell anyone this..."
y/n: "Fine. I'll just go and ask the coach myself."
beomgyu: "Wait! Okay, okay." (sighs) "Our coach got this email."
hueningkai: "Email stating what?"
beomgyu: "That Soobin shouldn't be on our team."
hueningkai: "It could be a prank."
beomgyu: "They attached this file. It's a video clip from his old school..."
y/n: "And?"
beomgyu: "He got into a fight and he injured someone from his own team."
hueningkai: "What?"
y/n: "Who sent the clip?"
beomgyu: "I don't know. It came from an untraceable email."
y/n: "Untraceable my ass."
hueningkai: "[y/n]."
y/n: "I don't believe this. So just because the coach saw that video clip, he didn't want Soobin on the team? There's no background context to the clip. No one really knows what happened. It's unfair to Soobin."
beomgyu: "I know... I tried to say something but the coach is serious about keeping our school's reputation clean. He doesn't want anyone violent on the team."
y/n: "Soobin's the calmest person I know. He wouldn't even hurt a fly."
beomgyu: "Not in the video. He punched someone right in the face."
hueningkai: "There must be a way to fix this... it's not right that he wasn't given a chance to explain himself."
beomgyu: "Maybe there's a way I can help. I think I might know someone who could help us trace the anonymous email."
hueningkai: "Really? who?"
