hueningkai: "No."

y/n: "It's not even--"

hueningkai: "Nope."

y/n: "It is a prestigious club."

hueningkai: "It's penmanship."

y/n: "Everyone should learn how to master the art of penmanship."

hueningkai: "Then, why aren't you in this club?"

y/n: "Because I'm already in a club."

hueningkai: "Which club?"

y/n: "Theater."

hueningkai: "You hate anything that draws attention to you."

y/n: "I never said I was onstage. I'm behind the scenes."

hueningkai: "Let me guess, you joined because Taehyun is in it."

y/n: "No."

hueningkai: "Then, why?"

y/n: "Because..."

hueningkai: "Because...?"

y/n: "Because I have a keen interest in what goes on backstage."

hueningkai: "Keener than your interest in Taehyun?"

y/n: "Shut up. The club leader is coming."

leader: "Hi [y/n]."

y/n: "Hi, Soobin."

soobin: "Is this our new member?"

y/n: "Yes. This is Hueningkai."

soobin: "Nice to meet you."

hueningkai: "Same."

soobin: "Come on in. Our meeting is just about to start."

hueningkai: (whispers) "Don't make me go in there."

y/n: "I'll pick you up once the meeting's done and I expect a good progress report."

hueningkai: "What am I in, kindergarten?"

y/n: "Don't be silly. Kindergarteners don't learn calligraphy. You're in at least the Fifth Grade."

hueningkai: "Don't go--"

[Y/N leaves]

soobin: "Hueningkai, don't be shy."

hueningkai: "Me, shy? Never."

soobin: "Good. We're all chill people, I swear."

hueningkai: "I didn't doubt it for a second."

soobin: "Let me introduce you to everyone. This is--"

unknown: "Yo!"

soobin: "Oh, god..."

unknown: "Am I late?"

soobin: "I told you the meeting ends in an hour."

hueningkai: "Who's he?"

soobin: "My brother."

unknown: "His charming brother."

hueningkai: "Right. I can see that."

soobin: "You're not part of this club, remember? Please leave. And you're not charming."

yeonjun: "Says the guy who loves to practice penmanship."

soobin: "Are you penmanship shaming me?"

yeonjun: "No. I'm just saying, at least--"

soobin: "You have terrible penmanship, so there's the door. Bye-bye."

yeonjun: "He's an awful leader."

soobin: "I'm not. Hueningkai, don't listen to my moronic brother."

[YEONJUN leaves]

hueningkai: "He's quite the character."

soobin: "He's cookie butter on steroids. Anyways."

hueningkai: "I don't know anything about penmanship."

soobin: "It's okay, you don't have to. Our goal here is just to kick back and practice different types of handwriting. Do you think you can do that?"

hueningkai: "I'm here, so I guess I'll have to try."

soobin: "I know [y/n] dragged you into this, but honestly I'm grateful. We've been needing another member. The principal thinks our club isn't necessary."

hueningkai: "But you think it is?"

soobin: "Of course it is. Without nice penmanship, written correspondence would be a nightmare."

hueningkai: "Written correspondence is kind of ancient nowadays, isn't it?"

soobin: "Not to me. Anything handwritten is infinitely better than something typed out."

hueningkai: "You must hate typing essays, then."

soobin: "I don't have a problem with that. I just mean things like letters."

hueningkai: "Letters."

soobin: "The goal at the end of this year is that you'll write three letters in three different types of penmanship."

hueningkai: "Letters to who?"

soobin: "To whoever you want. The point of the letter isn't the content. It's the penmanship and how well you've done it."

hueningkai: "Seems simple enough."

soobin: (laughs) "Simple?"

hueningkai: "Yeah."

soobin: "Oh, Hueningkai. Sit down. You have much to learn."
