Chapters:
- There Goes My Lunch
Baby starts a food fight- just for the fun of it. The thing is... he doesn't really know much about human bodies and how they work. Especially vital stuff like their health, and things that can harm them. Too bad he is not a demon anymore.
2. Popped Plans (Literally)
The maknae of the Saja Boys is bored. Everyone's out (probably on dates), and he has nothing to do. Naturally, he has an evil idea. An evil idea that might result in an injury or two.
3. Messing With the Beat
The Saja Boys and Huntr/x are planning a collab soon! Baby, being the spoiled bitch he is, gets bored during their choreography practice, and decides to mess with his group while Jinu's not around. Unfortunately, their leader has eyes on the back of his head (he has loyal bandmates [Romance, Abby, and Mystery] to snitch on their maknae for him) (stupid jerks). Anyways, Jinu has fun punishing Baby.

4. Innocent Until Proven Petty
The Saja Boys and Huntr/x have movie nights every week, just for the fun of it. This week, though, they decide to go out for a karoke night, to try something new- cause it's perfect too, they're all singers. Unfortunately, it was Baby's turn to pick out a movie and turns out that the group had somehow forgot to tell him. He stays behind by choice, reasoning that he couldn't wait until next week, but is that really the answer? Knowing Baby, no. He's obviously looking to cause trouble.

5. One Pill Too Many
The Saja Boys and Huntr/x sneak out on another date. Again. This is seriously pissing the maknae off. But it's also great because, we all know, Baby loves pranks. But the harmless, fun, pranks. It's not fun when his own joke backfires on him, but it's a little extreme to what he thought. That's an understatement. It's a lot worse.

6. Everything I Know Brings Me Back To Us
Baby is tired of Jinu's love for Rumi. Don't get him wrong, Baby loves that Jinu has someone- and Rumi isn't that bad herself, but the guy is obsessed. All he takes about is the purple-haired Hunter, and Baby's getting sick of it. So, naturally, he makes a plan to ruin their next date. Unfortunately, Baby wasn't expect a familiar guest to come out of the blue like that. Someone he never wanted to see again.

7. I'm Over This Rollercoaster
Baby's alone. Again. The other Saja Boys are out on their little dates again. Why do they always leave him? Well, who cares. Baby likes being alone anyways- he can cause trouble without getting in trouble. Well, apparently he can still get into trouble either way.
Requested by: ACAM24random
8. Maybe I'm Too Emotional
Jinu's back. The Saja Boys are reunited! Baby knows that it's meant to be a good thing, but it seems as if he's the only one who remembers Jinu's betrayal. At least, the only one who has not fully forgiven their leader. Baby can't. He doens't know how to. He starts giving Jinu the cold treatment. No matter how much times Jinu tries to apologise, Baby doesn't listen. Even the other Saja Boys try. Jinu, eventually, gets fed up, and turns the tables around. He just wanted back Baby's love and trust, he didn't expect for any of this to happen.

9. Heard The Risk Is Drowning (But I'm Gonna Take It)
It's summer in Seoul. Huntr/x and The Saja Boys have rented a house to stay in for the summer- a break from all the performances and everything, really. Baby shouldn't of let his hopes up. It's hot and sticky and sweaty. Baby hates it- how do humans live like this? Even after only four years in the underworld, Baby has decided that burning in hell is better than whatever the fuck is going on. Then an amazing idea pops in his mind. He looks outside, remembering that there's a pool with this house. Even better, he can hide underwater and when Jinu and Rumi starts doing couple stuff, he can pop out of nowhere and ruin their fun. It's like, perfect. The only thing is that Baby has no experience with swimming. It'll be fine, right?

There Goes My Lunch
Ships: All are minor: Jinu/Rumi, Mystery/Zoey
Can be taken as: Mira/Romance, Baby/Abby
Baby is bored.
Fuck, that boy is always bored.
He's not bothered to watch the show on the TV with Mira and Zoey, Business Proposal™. It's too slow and boring for him.
Abby's out at the gym and Romance is taking his stupid fucking time brushing out his hair for no reason, they are just going to eat lunch. Nothing special about that.
Is what Baby thought at first.
Anyways, Jinu and Rumi- eugh, the lovey dovery couple- are in the kitchen preparing lunch, not taking their eyes off each other. Baby might puke, but instead he starts to fake gag.
Mystery is god knows where, probably chasing Sussie around the house.
Baby snorts at that in amusement, then continues to scroll through TikTok™ on his phone. He's gotten a lot better in technology since becoming a human, and so far, TikTok™ might be his favourite app.
He comes across a video of a school cafeteria food fight. The maknae looks up at Rumi and Jinu in the kitchen, cooking happily.
A small, evil, grin plants across Baby's face.
He turns his phone off, and cautiously slips off the couch without Mira nor Zoey noticing him.
He makes his way to Huntr/x's kitchen, quietly.
"Jinu! Don't put that spoon in the microwave!" He can hear Rumi shout, scolding Jinu and his stupidity.
"Why?!" Jinu asks, confused.
"It's a metal spoon," Rumi tells him, slapping her forehead with her palm, "how old are you, oh right. If you put anything metal in there..."
Baby takes Rumi's lecture as the perfect opportunity to quickly swipe some flour off the counter, and direct it at...
...he scans the room.
Mira.
Perfect.
He throws the hand-full of flour at the short-tempered Huntr/x member, who instantly looks back, face full of fury, as well as Zoey, whose face is painted with shock.
Baby ducks down before he can be seen.
"Rumi, Jinu." The couple freeze when they hear MIra's voice. "Which one of you just hit me with a hand-full of flour?" She asks, eye twitching slightly.
"Not me!" Jinu says, same time as Rumi tells her, "it was him!" As they both point at each other. Zoey clutches her mouth, trying not to laugh.
Baby smirks.
"Wow, Rumi," Jinu clutches his chest, as if she had stabbed him, (Well, she emotionally did). "How could you betray me like that, we both know it wasn't me!"
"Me?" Rumi asks, raising both eyebrows. "Yeah, yeah, as if you didn't sell me off too!"
"What's going on?" Romance walks in. Perfect timing, Ro.
Baby grabs a whole lot of batter from a bowl, and throws it at Romance's shirt.
"Baby?" Zoey realises, letting her laughter slip.
Romance just looks at him.
"How- how could you Baby?" He asks, looking back down at his ruined shirt.
"This means war!" Both he and Mira shout at the same time, running to the counter in sync.
Baby sighs. Ugh, couple goals, he thinks, disgusted.
Rumi instantly ducks behind the counter. "No! Not my hair! Do you know how hard it is to wash stuff out of this shit-?"
Plop.
A few drops of honey- yes, sticky, gooey, you'd-hate-to-get-it-in-your-hair, honey- is dropped onto her beautiful, long, hair.
She looks up at Baby, a shit-eating grin spread like peanut butter across his face.
"You know what? I agree with Mira and Romance," Rumi tells him, snatching the bottle of honey out of Baby's hands, directing it at the shorter boy. "This does mean war."
Baby runs off with Rumi chasing him. Mira and Romance throw scoops of batter for who knows what at each other, as Jinu tries to hide from Zoey, who has a bottle of mayonnaise in hand.
Baby then grabs more of the batter and tries to hit the girl following him, but it missing and it hits Huntr/x's maknae.
Jinu instantly starts laughing over the comedic scene, which makes Zoey throw the food into his face.
"Ack!" He shrieked, "not my face! I need it to steal your fans!"
Rumi rolled her eyes at that, squirting his white shirt with honey.
"You'll pay for that," Jinu replies, grabbing some tomato sauce and chasing his girlfriend around the kitchen. "With a few cuddles tonight," Baby whispers to Zoey, who laughs at that. "For real- oh wait," she pauses, then proceeds to cover him in mayonnaise.
"That's for earlier," she grins, running off.
Baby looks down at himself, before running after her.
The room soon enough errupts into pure chaos.
Food was thrown everywhere, and almost everyone was covered in goop.
Everyone but the trouble-maker of the whole group.
Baby, is fast and smart enough that he wasn't entirely covered yet. All that is on him so far is that mayonnaise from earlier, thanks to Zoey's betrayal.
Traitor.
He thinks, knowing damn well it was his own fault.
Then, Abby walks in, with Mystery behind him and Sussie perched on his shoulder.
Ah, so I was correct.
"What's going on-"
Abby gets whacked in the abs with a unneccesary amount of batter, and he looks up at them all.
Mira was the one who hit him, smirking at him, threateningly.
He grabs it off his shirt, and throws it in Mystery's face, bangs being swept as his face is revealed to the whole room.
Zoey squeals. "Mystery, oh my god-"
She gets cut off by Baby throwing mayonnaise at her.
He does not want to hear her talk about his bandmate in such a gooey and disgusting way, and plus, payback for earlier.
The room soon enough is chaotic again. Now, Baby targets Abby, running for him with the mayonnaise bottle.
"What did I do?" Abby asks, not looking back. "Baby, I'm sorry for whatever I did to you!"
"Nothing," Baby answers back, smirking. "I just feel like it." He starts laughing like a lunatic- but it's Baby, they're used to it.
"Of course you do," Jinu jokes, dodging Mira and Romance's attempts to ruin his hair. "You literally started this whole thing for the sake of your boredness- ack! Romance! Mira! Stop teaming up on me- I'm weaponless!"
"Rumi, come help your boyfriend~" Romance teases in a sing-song voice, but he feels a hand on his shoulder.
He turns around to see Rumi, grinning at him. "Of course I will!"
She throws a heap of food at his hair as he shrieks. "My hair- Rumi- I WILL GET REVENGE-!"
He is interrupted by Baby, who chucks more at his hair. "Oops."
"Why you little shit-"
The food fight grows.
The group has added popcorn, jelly, noodles (R.I.P. Ramyeon), eggs, and this weird sort of mush Zoey and Mystery made together by blending practically everything together.
Baby's got eggs and noodles stuck onto his face, jelly smeared on his baby-features. He wipes it off, as if in a movie, suspensefully staring at Jinu.
The two had been at this for awhile now, just them trying to get the other to give up. A battle of life and death (when you finished this, you're gonna be like; oh- this bit was serious.)
They threw and ducked and dodged, both laughing and screaming like insane people. Well, you could say that, I guess.
They pull out new things, and soon enough jam, butter, whipped cream and even spaghetti with heaps of sauce.
Soon, Rumi and Romance both join in on their fight- Mystery and Zoey aiming at Mira and Abby somewhere else- and only more chaos is created.
"Look at what you've done, Baby!" Rumi shouts, though it was filled with laughter. "Are you happy?"
Baby smirks. "Very."
Romance shot an egg as him, the slimey parts getting into Baby's right eye. "Oww."
"Sorry, love!" Romance gasps, running over and making sure their maknae was okay. "Are you alright?"
Baby wipes his face and smiles. "All good! But now I'm targetting you, Ro!"
Romance lets out a yelp as Baby starts chasing him with two eggs.
"Jinu!" He yells, "a little help, please?"
Jinu grins. "Of course, dear Romance, your knight in shining-"
He gets hit by an egg.
"Gross!" Baby exclaims, "you're already Rumi's knight in shining armour- no need to be his too! Where's Mira?"
Baby looks around the room, evilly, and Jinu takes that as an opportunity to punish the teal-haired boy.
He grabs a peanut butter jar- something new- and scoops out a hand-ful of it.
Jinu aims and throws it directly onto Baby's cheek, making the younger one glare at him, threateningly. "Oh, Jinu, I'll get you for that-" Jinu takes that as a sign to start running and hide.
Instead, he goes and targets Romance and Rumi, who were throwing a bunch of spaghetti mixed with jelly at each other.
As Baby is about to follow him, his face instantly starts to get itchy.
He wipes the peanut butter off- where it was itching the most- and rubs his face.
"Ow," he mutters, opening his phone to look at what happened.
His cheek is all red, and it was starting to spread all around his face. Had Jinu hit him too hard?
Probably, what a try-hard.
I deserve revenge-
Suddenly, his eyes starts to water, and his face only got worse. So does his hand- the one that he used to wipe the peanut butter off.
He wipes his eyes frantically, panicking internaly.
It's fine, Jinu's just a try-hard who likes to over-do things, I'm fine-
Spoiler: he's not,
Baby starts coughing and hacking. He can feel his airway closing up, and fear builds up in his stomach. He feels his face swell up and turn more itchier. He feels as if he is dying.
"Jinu!" He croaks out, though it doesn't come out as loud as he wanted. Baby can feel the tears falling, fast.
"Jinu-!"
Then, he couldn't breathe at all.
He falls to the ground, clutching his neck, scared.
He tries to shout someone else's name, but nothing comes out.
The first person to realise is Mira, who stares at him from the kitchen, smiling.
"Oh, Baby," she laughs, "no need to be so dramatic- that's Romance's job and it's annoying, we don't need two overdramatic queens."
When he doesn't reply, Mira squints, taking a closer look at him.
She realises the big rash on his face, how his lips have turned blue, how tears welled up in his eyes, and how he was clutching his neck.
"Oh my god- Baby!" She yells, running over to support him. Her scream makes everyone else stop what they were doing. Rumi looks at her, mid-throw. "Mira, what happened-?"
"Someone call an ambulance!" Mira shouts, leaning over and inspecting Baby.
The group immediately starts panicking.
"What do you mean?" Romance asks her, running over. The rest follow, except Rumi, who reaches for the phone.
"He's having an allergic reaction!" Mira explains, panic wavering in her voice. "What?" Jinu asked, "what's that?"
"It's when your body reacts to a certain type of thing," Zoey explains, though she's not calm at all. "Food or not, it's very life threatening- oh my god, is Rumi calling an ambulance?"
She looks over at Rumi, who's taking on the phone. Talking is an understatement. She is almost yelling, but no one could blame her.
"What do we do?" Abby asks, worried. "His lips are turning a frightening colour of blue what do we do?!"
Mira glances down at him. "Get him to sit up and stay like that- it might help his breathing."
Baby watches as Abby instantly obeys her instructions, lifting Baby up in a sitting position.
It helps a bit, but not much.
"Baby," Zoey says, trying to get his attention. "Look at me if you can hear me!"
He looks at her, scared.
Rumi walks over. "They're coming," she reassures him. "Baby, they're coming, just stay like that-"
But he couldn't.
His vision fades black.
"Oh my god," Zoey freaks out, but they all were. "He's gone unconscious, Mira- is he okay?!"
Mira grabs his wrist, trying to find his pulse. "He's okay," she mumbles, "he's okay."
Jinu watches in terror at the sight of Baby unconscious. What even happened?
"What caused it?" Romance asks, moving Baby's hair out of his closed eyes and wiping the sweat from his forehead. Mystery points at Baby's cheek.
"There's a big rash there," he says, voice weirdly calm to the others, but Jinu could hear the slight worry tremble in it. "Whatever hit him here, caused it."
Jinu's eyes went wide.
Fuck, is this all his fault.
"Shit," he says, "that was the weird browny butter thing- I swear I didn't know!" His voice breaks slightly at that as he clutches Baby's limp hand. "I'm so sorry, Baby, wake up!"
"It's not your fault," Rumi places a hand on his shoulder, reassuringly. "Don't blame yourself, Jinu. Plus, we need to focus on Baby."
Jinu nods, wiping away any tears that had formed.
"Allergies are not uncommon," Mira explains to the old ex-demons, who probably knew nothing about allergies. "But they are very dangerous, we'll need to remember not to let any peanuts near Baby- nor any sort of nuts, since most people who are allergic to one are allergic to many."
"This is so weird," Abby mumbles, still holding Baby, protectively. "This has never happened to him before."
"Demons don't eat," Mystery explains, quiet as ever. "And Demons don't get sick."
Romance frowns. "Baby will be alright, wont he?"
Mira looks at him. "Sure he will."
Not so long later, the emergency service arrives.
They do a number of things on Baby, one involving some sort of needle that Rumi explained was an 'EpiPen'.
Jinu didn't like the sound of that. He couldn't watch.
It was all his fault.
Soon enough, they had Baby in the ambulance, being taken to the hospital.
Thankfully, his lips weren't as blue and his breathing returned to a normal pace.
Jinu sits at the back with Baby. Rumi, Abby, and Mira are also sitting at the back with him. Romance, Zoey, and Mystery agreed to drive and meet them there, since there wasn't enough space for all of them.
Jinu holds on to Baby's hand. He decides to not let go for the whole trip.
Baby wakes up, hacking and coughing all over again.
Except, this time, he can actually breathe.
"You're awake!" Jinu yells, grabbing Baby and pulling him into a hug, which makes Baby wince slightly.
"Am I in... a hospital?" Baby asks, taking in his surroundings. He takes note that all Huntr/x and Saja Boy members are surrounding the bed he was currently in, while Mystery's head was resting on the bed, at his legs like a sad dog.
He reached down to pat Mystery's head.
"Jinu tried to kill you," Mira deadpans, and Romance nudges her, threateningly.
"I'm so sorry, Baby," Jinu apologises, voice breaking. "I didn't know you were allergic to nuts, I'm so sorry."
"I'm allergic?" Baby asks. Luckily, Baby is not as old as the other ex-demons, so there's no need to explain what allergies are to him. "So that's what happened."
"We were so scared, Baby," Zoey tells him, breathing out a breath of relief.
"But you're okay, right?" Rumi asks him, worry slipping through her voice.
Baby touches his throat. "I think so- I blacked out, didn't I?"
"I'm so sorry," Jinu repeats, tears threatening to well in his eyes.
As soon as Baby realises, he takes his leader in for a hug. "Hey, I'm not mad at you- I didn't even know myself. You are not the person to blame on."
"We all know who is," Romance coughs into his sleeve, looking away.
Baby groans.
"Well, at least we learned a lesson, right, Baby?" Abby asks him grinning and patting the maknae's head.
Baby sighs. "No one can let Jinu in the kitchen-"
"Baby!"
He groans again. "No more food fights."
All of them, except Mystery, nod in agreement.
"Though, I've got to admit, it was kind of fun," Zoey comments, laughing as she remembers the fight.
"Exactly!" Baby pouts, corssing his arms. "This isn't fair! My idea's are great"
Mystery hold up Baby's phone, showing everyone the school cafeteria food fight video.
"That reminds me," Romance smirks at Mira, who smiles just as evilly back.
"No phone for you, for a whole week-"
"RO, MIRA, NOOOOOO-"
And Baby spent the rest of his day crying.

Chapter Text
Popped Plans (Literally)
Ships: Baby/Abby
Minor: Rumi/Jinu, Zoey/Mystery, Romance/Mira
Home alone.
Just like how Baby likes it.
Well, I mean, it is how he can cause trouble.
See, as the 'innocent maknae' of the group, it is his responsibility to make sure the other Saja boys aren't doing anything 'too gross' or 'dirty' around him.
And right now, they are all on dates. Gasp, I know right? How dare they?
Except Abby. The jock of the group, and also Baby's boyfriend, is currently gone to the gym, as Jinu had told him that it was unrealistic to have all those abs without working out like a normal human, so he had forced Abby out of the house earlier.
Yet still, he's a traitor.
All of them are, how could they leave their precious maknae home alone, by himself??
Is what fans would say.
Baby scrunches up his nose at the thought of them. He hates being babied, yet here's Jinu, telling him to sit down and deal with it. No, bitch-ass, he is not going to deal with it, so he took the babying to a whole new level.
Pretending to be an actual baby.
It's funny. The way Jinu would always look as if considering putting the maknae in actual time out. The way Mystery would always grab him a bottle of water when Baby looked as if about to throw a childish tantrum. The way he could practically feel the confusion the Saja Boy sheld when Baby started his... well, Baby arc.
And now, he's getting revenge.
Baby makes his way to the Saja Boy's basement, where they had put all of their unwanted things and merch. Their merch had doubled after they had become humans and continued their singing career, so that meant the items had as well.
"Where is it?" Baby mumbles to himself, digging through a box full of t-shirts, posters, hoodies, and...
"Found it!" Baby grins, standing up too quick and hitting his head on a shelf. "Ow!" He yelps, clutching his head and rubbing it.
He kicks the shelf. "Stupid shelf."
That's Baby for you.
Anyways, he pulls out a packet of balloons out, each one of them having an image either being Derpy, Sussie, or the two together on it. The mascots of the Saja Boys.
Heh, imagine being Huntr/x, not having their own mascot.
Shut up, Baby. You're so mean.
Baby runs back into the living room, many packets of balloons in his hands. He tries whistling into his fingers, like Jinu always does, but fails.
"Ugh, stupid Baby-mouth," he sighs, trying again. It kind of works this time, and he watches as the tiger and the magpie emerge from the ground.
"Hey, guys," Baby smirks, scratching Derpy's ear as he walks over and growls.
"You bored?" Derpy tilts his head, and Sussie just stares at him with all of his six terrifying eyes.
"Well, I have a job for you."
For the next hour, Baby and Derpy had been blowing up the balloons together.
Sussie wasn't much help, he would start laughing every time Derpy popped a balloon and Baby groaned.
"Ow, ow, ow, my jaw," Baby winces, clutching his head in pain.
Derpy walks over and brushes his head against Baby's leg, comfortingly.
"Thanks," Baby pats his head, smiling down at the stupidly fluffy tiger.
He looks around the room, inspecting all of his hard work. Sadly, only half the living room has been filled up so far.
Baby sighs. "Maybe this wasn't a great idea," he mumbles, and Sussie rolls his eyes.
"Hey!" Baby shouts at the magpie, offended. "Fuck you! This is an amazing idea! I'll prove it! I'LL PROVE YOU WRONG, SUSSIE-"
The bird lets out a dramatic sigh.
Baby gasps, clutching his chest.
"DERPY! MORE BALLOONS. NOW!!"
"Baby," Abby calls out to his boyfriend.
No answer.
Strange.
Abby shruggs, opening the door himself.
First thing that he see's when he walks in is...
Balloons.
With Derpy and Sussie's faces on them.
Just, flying circles made of plastic.
Everywhere.
It's terrifying.
"Baby!" Abby shouts out, cautious to not trip over any of the scattered balloons. "Baby! What is this?"
Baby's head emerges from under a pile of balloons. "Abby!" He grins, looking around. "Derpy helped me with this- I mean, uhh, it was Sussie's fault!" He points at the magpie, defensively. Sussie shakes his head.
"Oh my god- Baby, why?" Abby groans, though a laugh slips out in between.
"I was bored." Baby pouts, crossing his arms. It seems that he is on the couch, but Abby doesn't know since everything is covered in balloons.
"Uhm," Baby says, looking down. "Abby? A little help? I think Derpy's on my leg."
Abby smiles to himself, walking over to Baby and hauling him off the couch.
"You can put me down now," Baby tells him, whacking his arm.
"Nah." Abby smirks, adjusting Baby so Abby is supporting his weight with one hand. "I prefer seeing your face rather than all these balloons."
Baby groans, digging his face into Abby's shoulder.
"Now, let's get more balloons." Abby's face is planted with a shit-eating grin.
"Wha-"
Rumi, Jinu, Zoey, Mystery, Mira, and Romance, are all crammed into the Saja Boys' elevator.
"Abby's home with Baby now," Jinu states, checking the app Life 360º™ on his phone, since he can't trust his boys to wander off alone (that's why he tracks them). "I have a bad feeling that they're planning something."
"Ew, Jinu hyung," Mystery, normally quiet, comments.
"Not like that, you freak!" Mira smacks his arm in a scolding manor.
"He means that they're causing-"
"-trouble," Mystery interrupts Rumi. "I know, I know- we're all expecting it, really."
"Mystery, you're so observant," Zoey giggles, petting his hair like an owner petting their dog. Mystery let out a small 'woof' at that.
Romance grins at Mira, who rolls her eyes.
The elevator door opens, and they all pour inside the living room-
Pop!
"Balloons?" Romance states, frowning as he picks up a Derpy-themed balloon.
"Oh my god," Rumi gasps, "the whole living is covered!"
Jinu smirks. "That's sad, maybe we'll have to pop all of these balloons now-"
A balloon suddenly hits Jinu's face, except it doesn't bounce off.
It pops.
And water spills out.
"Don't you fucking dare," Baby says from the kitchen. The only thing wrong is that he looks taller...
Underneath him, is Abby, who grins at them, just as evilly, throwing up and catching a water balloon, threateningly.
"Is this a party?" Zoey asks, grabbing a balloon and posing menacinly with it.
Abby pulls a speaker out of thin air, pressing 'Soda Pop' on his phone and letting the music fill the room.
"HELL YEAH!!" Baby and Mira shout at the same time, grabbing and throwing balloons around.
Mystery sighs. "I guess relaxing time is gonna have to wait, huh?"
Romance pats him on the shoulder. "Look on the bright side, Myst, you can relax on the couch and sink into the balloons!"
Mystery considers it, before walking over and doing just that. Derpy curls up besides him, as Sussie perches on his head.
Romance takes a quick picture of it.
"What?" He asks when Jinu raises an eyebrow. "They're cute."
The whole appartment has blasted with many songs, as they start doing karoke.
Rumi and Jinu had dueted a song called 'Free' together, a song Baby didn't knew existed until then.
Mystyery, Romance, and Abby had tried to sing 'Golden', but only Mystery could hit the high notes.
Mira, Rumi, and Zoey had tried Your Idol, though they couldn't get the moves correct.
Baby and Mystery dueted 'How It's Done', but it was mostly Baby as Mystery couldn't sing fast enough to keep up with the song.
Then, they moved onto different songs.
Rumi, Mira, and Zoey sang 'Strategy™' by Twice together, getting everything perfect- the notes and the choreography.
And all the Saja Boys did 'Gnarly™' by Katseye, yes, including the iconic dance moves.
"No way," Mira let's out a laugh. "You guys did the moves, spot on."
"We're just divas," Abby flicks his short hair.
"Move, let me show you how it's done," Romance shoos him, flicking his longer.
"How it's done, done, done," Baby corrects him, smirking at his joke.
"Ha, ha, very funny," Jinu rolls his eyes, ruffling up Baby's hair.
Romance gasps at that, looking like the interactment had physically scarred him. "Don't! Do you know how long it took to brush his hair out this morning?!" He shrieks, pushing the back of his palm to his forehead, dramatically.
"Oh, shush, you," Mira says, throwing a balloon at his hear.
Romance just smiles, giving her a finger-heart. "You lovee me."
Mira groans.
"You didn't deny it," Romance reasons, turning to the Saja Boys for back up.
Instead, it seems like Huntr/x is on his side. "Sorry, Mira," Rumi says, guilty. "Yeahhhh," Zoey drags out. "You didn't deny it, sooo..."
"Oh, shut up!" Mira shouts, covering her face with her palms. "Whose turn is it next? Abby, Baby, get yo' asses up here!"
Baby smirks at Abby, and his boyfriend takes the hint to prop him up on his shoulders as he climbs the table.
"Uhm- is that safe?" Mystery asks, though no one can hear him over all the noise.
"Guys-"
Abby starts playing their chosen song, and the two start singing at the top of their lungs.
"Ack! Make it stop!" Romance jokes, covering his ears with two balloons.
"I'll pay you guys a hundred dollars just for you to stop!" Mira laughs, throwing balloons at them.
Baby laughs mid-rap, and Abby takes that opportunity to take his part.
"Hey!" Baby shouts at him when he realises, slapping Abby's arm.
"Guys." Mystery frowns. "That's unsafe- be careful."
Abby doesn't stop for Baby, as he gets carried away. Baby starts smacking him harder. "Abby! Give me my fucking lines back you bitch!"
Abby just smirks at him, not watching where he's stepping. He could easily trip from the few balloons behind of him. And, he's on a fucking table, so that makes matters worse.
Mystery realises this, and immediately starts barking, trying to get attention and alert the others.
"Myst, what's wrong, buddy?" Jinu asks him, grabbing his hand, thinking that Mystery is just feeling uncomfortable.
"Is something wrong, Mystery?" Zoey asks him, concerned, reaching over to comfort him.
Abby and Baby stop their music, and a wave of relief washes over Mystery, and he stops barking.
"Mystery, are you alright-" Abby starts, before almost losing balance off the table. Unfortunately, having another human being on your shoulders makes it uneasy to balance, so naturally, Abby ended up falling, taking Baby down with him.
Abby's landing wasn't too bad- sure, he landed onto the floor but the balloons would help the impact. Right?
Baby's wasn't bad either, was what they would've thought if they heard two groans of pain.
"Abby, Baby, you alright?" Jinu asks, concerned.
Rumi rushes over to pause the music.
"Yeah?" Abby says, rubbing his head. "Yeah, I'm fine. Baby?"
"Yep!" Baby says, tone more cheerful despite his voice being deeper. "I'm all good-" he's cut off by his own wince, which makes Abby instantly start to panic over him.
"Fuck, Baby, I'm so sorry, are you alright? Are you hurt?" He asks, checking over Baby, rapidly.
"Yeah, I'm okay," Baby forces a smile, ignoring the others crowding the two. "You?"
Abby looks at him, guiltily. "Sorry."
"It's alright." Baby reaches up to leave a small peck on his cheek.
Romance offers to help Abby up, as Mystery helps Baby.
As soon as Mystery's hand jolts Baby's arm up, though, he yells out in pain.
"Baby?" Mystery asks, looking down. "Sorry, did I hurt you? Are you okay?"
"I'm fine." Baby smirks. "Don't worry about it!"
"You better be fine," Jinu laughs, "since you and Abby made this mess- you guys are going to clean up more than fifty percent of it."
Both Baby and Abby let out groans.
"Don't be like that," Mira tells them, rolling her eyes.
"It's your fault for starting this," Rumi reasons, though it's clear that they had a lot of fun.
So, maybe Baby shouldn't clean this up after all, hmm?
If Baby is forced to be honest- his shoulder hurts like hell.
Every time he tries to pick up a balloon, he can't help but wince a little- which makes Abby go into protective-boyfriend mode, which Baby does not need.
He's capable of looking after himself.
Maybe.
Sort of.
After they clean up, Baby lifts up his sweater to see the damage done to his right arm.
When he sees his shoulder, his eyes shoot up form shock.
"Jesus Christ," he mutters, pulling it back down. "Uhm... JINUUUU??" He calls out their leader's name, but no response,
"God fucking asshole- JINUUUUUUUUU-"
"What the fuck do you want," a voice says from behind him, and Baby nearly falls over.
Baby pulls up his sweater, hesitant,
"You might want to check this out-"
"WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK OH MY GOD-"
"I told you guys it was nothing," Baby walks out of the hospital, into Huntr/x's van that could fit all eight of them and the Saja Boys in. His shoulder is wrapped in several layers of this thick fabric, and his right arm is in a sling.
Hey, it's not too bad since in can hide his lollipops and things like that in there (like guns, too!)
"Baby, you dislocated your shoulder," Jinu tells him in a very serious voice.
"God forbid a baby grows up- I'm an adult now, hyung! I can party if I want too, now!"
"You're unbelievable," Rumi mutters under her breath as Abby inspects Baby's cast.
"It's not my fault you humans are so weak!"
Notes:
If you dont know, dislocated shoulders look terrifying
I know this from experience

The Saja Boys and Huntr/x are planning a collab soon! Baby, being the spoiled bitch he is, gets bored during their choreography practice, and decides to mess with his group while Jinu's not around. Unfortunately, their leader has eyes on the back of his head (he has loyal bandmates [Romance, Abby, and Mystery] to snitch on their maknae for him) (stupid jerks).

Chapter Text
Messing With The Beat
Ships: all minor/implied: Jinu/Rumi, Romance/Mira
Requested by: chibiatsushi
"Romance! Get you're lefts and rights correct!"
"Sorry, Jinu!" The eldest demon stutters, following Jinu's orders.
"Abby, fix your posture- my god, I know we're ex-demons but still!" Jinu exclaims, clutching the bridge of his nose as he sighs, dramatically.
Abby just rolls his eyes.
"Mystery- you're doing all right," Jinu finally smiles for once in his life. "But-" there's always a 'but', "-try to make your hair move a little more- more bouncier- the fans will love it!" Mystery tilts his head. "You want the fans to see my face?"
"No," Jinu sighs, "just- work it out- I don't know! Hair choreography? Is it called that?"
He finally turns to Baby, and Baby already knows what to expect. "Baby- put some more effort-!"
"Do you want me to choke and die?" Baby asks, the only one to talk back to Jinu. He knows that Jinu loves them all very much, but sometimes he's a little too excessive. "You know, it's pretty fucking hard to dance with a lollipop in your mouth," he explains, pulling the said lollipop out and spinning it.
"Sorry, sorry," Jinu mutters, clutching his chin and pacing around the studio.
"It's just that-"
"We know, we know." Romance rolls his eyes. "You want everything to go well for our collab with Huntr/x, so you can impress you grilfriend~"
"Gah!" Jinu exclaims, face turning red. "She's not my girlfriend!"
"Sureeee."
"You can't say anything when you look at Mira's instagram everyday, you weirdo!" Jinu points an accusing finger at the eldest demon. Baby, Abby, and Mystery watch in amusement.
"That's totally different!" Romance argues back, "unlike you, me and Mira are actually dating- so it's not weird at all! You look through Rumi's-"
"Calm down," Mystery's soothing voice shuts them all up. "We're meant to be practising the dance, remember?"
"Right," Jinu says, clearing his throat from embarrassment. He gets up and heads to the door. "You guys are probably thirsty- sorry about that- I'll go fetch us some water."
He gets a few 'okay' 's and nods of agreement, before closing the door behind him.
Baby's about to sit down when he remembers something that Jinu had said earlier.
"Romance! Get you're lefts and rights correct!"
Baby looks over at Romance, evil idea forming in his mind.
He gets up and walks over to the pink-haired guy. "Hey, Ro-Hyung?" Baby asks, using the stupid nickname he had made up a few days ago. He goes to sit down next to him.
"Hmm?" Romance looks down at him. "Yes, Baby?"
Baby leans in, whipsering. "You know how Jinu keeps telling you to get your lefts and rights correct?" He asks, smirking when Romance falls for it and nods. "You're still doing it wrong- you're moving your arms left instead of right."
Romance frowns slightly, raising an eyebrow, confused.
"But isn't that what Jinu said- it's right foot right, right?"
"Stop talking." Baby rolls his eyes. "You're getting me confused."
"But it's right foot goes right-"
"Jinu hyung changed it," Baby tells him, keeping a straight face. He is quite good at acting, really.
"Ah," Romance mutters, fixing the ends of his hair. He smiles down at Baby, ruffling his. "Thank you, dear."
The nickname makes Baby's insides suddenly flood with guilt, but he stays up straight, grin wide and giving the eldest demon a thumbs up. "All good, Romance hyung!"
First target, down. Two more to go.
But then, right on cue, Jinu walks back into the room- five full water bottles in hand.
"Here you are, boys," he says, handing one to the each of them. As soon as he hands one to Baby, the maknae instantly starts to chug- which is probably not a good idea but who cares?
"Calm down, Kiddo," Abby chuckles, ruffling up Baby's hair. Baby just groans because, that's like the fifth time today someone ruined his amazing hair.
"I'm not a kid," Baby says back, instantly putting the water bottle back to his mouth.
"You're our maknae," Mystery tells him, smiling the tiniest bit as he pinches Baby's cheek. Baby decides to let it slide, as Mystery is probably the only Saja Boy who stops when Baby tells him too, which he appreciates gravely.
Baby just sighs, letting Mystery coo over him.
"Okay, okay, enough, Myst," he tells him, pushing the older boy away. Mystery obeys, saying a soft 'sorry' in between. "It's alright."
Baby would and will never admit it, but he has a soft spot for the mysterious Saja member, even if he is pretty weird. Mystery respects his boundries, and Baby respects his. It doesn't mean that the other Saja Boys don't, but they definitely don't listen to him straight away, overall treat him like an actual twenty year old.
He still loves them, obviously.
It just fun to play with them since they always piss him off.
"Okay, are you guys ready?" Jinu asks, and smiles when they all nod. "Okay, from the start!"
Baby mentally groans, but tells his mind to shut up when he remembers what he had told Romance earlier.
This is going to be good.
"Five, six, seven, eight," Jinu starts, before letting the music carry off the beat.
Baby keeps turning his head to Romance's direction, smirking every few seconds.
"BABY!" Jinu's voice erupts the room. Baby immediately freezes, but resets his face, telling himself to act chill.
"Wassup-"
"Just stay focused, okay?" Jinu's voice instantly went more sweeter, though his eye twitches slightly as he looks at the maknae.
"Mmkay."
"Good job, sweetie! You're doing great!"
Baby hears Abby mutter something about 'favouritism', and Baby knows it's true, but he still stomps on Abby's foot, and the bigger man instantly yelps in pain.
"Baby-" he hisses. "You little brat-"
"Guys!" Jinu yells, getting impatient. "Come on guys- from the start!"
Abby groans, Baby rolls his eyes, Romance sighs dramatically, and Mystery gets into position, waiting paitently and quietly.
"See you guys?" Jinu asks, point at him. "Myst is actually behaving, you guys should- MYSTERY!" He barks, snapping at Mystery, who had been giving him the middle finger. "PUT IT DOWN!!"
"You were saying?" Baby asks, raising an eyebrow and letting out a laugh.
"I- argh- shut up."
Romance suddenly gasps, clutching Baby's face with both of his hands and looking at Jinu, over-dramatically mad. "How could you?" He points at their leader, showing Jinu their maknae's face. "How could you say something so cruel to Baby? Look at his face!"
At that, Baby lets out a big pout, bottom lip sticking out and eyes looking down at the floor, sadly.
Jinu lets out a huff. "Ro, my man, you do know that he is faking it, right? Right?"
Romance looks back at Baby, staring at his face, intensely. "You're not, are you? How could he, Jinu? He's just a baby."
Those words make Baby want to punch the pink-haired member, but Baby resists, playing along against his will (he wants to trust) (he likes being the baby at the same time).
Baby shakes his head, looking at Jinu angriy, and Jinu lets his arms fly up and down in exasperation.
"Jinu- you bitch," Romance tells him, looking back at Baby. "Baby would neverr."
Baby rolls his eyes as soon as the eldest member looks away, muttering a 'sure'.
He loves Romance dearly, but seriously? He's 'just a baby'? Mhmm, yeah, sure.
Oh, he is so ready for his prank to take action.
"Guys, guys, focus- Abby, Mystery! Guys come on," Jinu pleads, voice growing with frustration.
"Yes, sir," Mystery obeys, voice quiet. Jinu smiles at him, thankful.
Baby, feeling kind of bad, gets Romance and Abby to concentrate, giving a salute to Jinu when he manages. Jinu gives him a thumbs up back, grinning at his maknae.
"Okay, guys, please focus."
The five ex-demons all dance to the music. Perfectly in sync and on beat. Jinu looks at them, impressed.
Then comes the bit.
The bit that Romance kept messing up.
Baby turns to him, smirking slightly to himself.
He watches as the eldest goes the wrong way, messing up the perfection.
"Romance!" Jinu yells, stopping the music. Romance freezes mid-step, turning to their leader, looking down. "Y-yes, Jinu?"
The other two boys whip their heads around, watching as Jinu tells off their hyung. Abby watches with sympathy, and Mystery watches with surprise. Romance always learns from his mistakes, why did he make the same one again?
Well, jokes on all of them, people make mistakes. Baby knows that. He can't help but feel a drop of guilt seep through him as he stares at Romance with pity. Maybe he shouldn't of tricked his hyung. He felt bad. Ro's allowed to make multiple mistakes. He's human too.
But Baby stays silent. He knows it's wrong, but maybe he can get revenge for Romance.
He'll just simply prank the others.
The pranking goes on.
Baby tells the other members false information during little breaks or while getting a drink.
Baby tells Mystery that he's counting the beats wrong, getting off time with the others, and needs to start on beat four instead of two.
Mystery tilts his head, but nods.
He tells Abby that he's doing the movements wrong, and shows him that the older guy needs to flex his muscles constantly. A insane amount of times.
Abby looks at him, but shrugs. Technically agreeing.
The maknae keeps this up, pointing out 'flaws' that were actually not. Just for the fun of it. Harmless prank, right?
Now it's time to watch it all play out.
Jinu plays the music again. Baby looks around the room.
He's slightly nervous, wondering if he went too far. Of course not, though. The other Saja Boys should be expecting this. Baby, the 'innocent little baby', was someone none of them knew. They all actually knew him as a 'troublemaker', a 'demonspawner', or 'the literal child of Gwi-Ma's'.
Yeah, that sounded like him, no?
The music floods the room, and the Saja Boys start dancing.
Although, as soon as they start, it's complete chaos.
Mystery's timing is way off. He stops, looks around, and frowns, confused.
Abby flexes as soon as the song starts, just like Baby had told him- though against his will. He flinches slightly when Jinu stares at him, puzzled.
Romance gets the movement right this time, though everything is so confusing that he messes up completely, staring at the others, confusion painted all over his face.
Even Baby suddenly trips over his own feet, landing face first onto the ground. "Ow!" He mumbles, getting up rapidly, determined to not embarrass himself via his own plan.
"Guys!" Jinu asks, anger rising in his voice. "What's going on? We were perfect this morning? WHY CAN'T YOU GUYS FOCUS?!"
The sudden burst of anger makes all the other Saja Boys back away. They all know that Jinu can get very angry when he's upset. Maybe Baby went too far. They all know how much Jinu needs to be perfect. He went too far.
They all know that now all Jinu needs is time, and they respect that. They'll give him time to calm down. Jinu's not mean or evil, he just needs to be perfect.
Baby feels Mystery clutch his arm and pull his maknae behind him. That makes the guilt grow even more. It's not helping.
Jinu brushes a hand through his hair. "I'm sorry, I'm sorry- I love you guys, you know that, right?"
Is he scared?
Of course they did.
Before any of them can answer, Jinu starts speaking again.
"I'm sorry- I just need some time."
"Of course," is what Abby told him.
"It's okay, Jinu," is Romance.
"We understand." Mystery.
And Baby? He looks down, slient. Guilty.
Jinu nods, leaving the room.
The others watch.
They then all turn to their maknae.
"Baby?" Mystery mutters. They're all thinking the same thing. He knows.
"I-I got to go," Baby stutters, clutching himself and running out.
God, why did he do that?
It was meant to be a simple joke.
Why did he do that?
He just wanted to have fun- and he has to admit, watching them up was really funny.
He runs to his bedroom, shutting the door and grabbing his tablet.
He starts playing 'Roblox™' to distract his mind off things. He plays 'The Mimic™', four players with voice chat, and cackles everytime he hears someone scream.
It really does distract him as he doesn't realise how long it had been since Jinu had walked off to his room.
Baby hears a knock on his door, looking up from his screen. He leaves the game and turns his tablet off. "Come in!"
The door opens, and outside standing are the rest of the Saja Boys.
"Baby?" Jinu asks, frowning. "We need to talk."
Baby's stomach drops.
"Jinu-hyung?"
"Don't play dumb, Baby," Abby tells him, crossing his arms and sighing.
"I'm not," Baby deadpans.
"So you know what you did?" Jinu walks over and sits onto Baby's bed.
"No?" Baby admits, one-hundred percent playing dumb.
"Baby," Mystery mutters. A simple word with a serious warning behind it.
Baby pouts, crossing his arms and sitcking his bottom lip out. "I don't know, I swear! You can't force me, Hyung! I have my own rights!"
What is he doing? Trying to get out of trouble by acting like a child? Sounds like him.
"Baby, dear," Romance tries, reaching out a hand to him. "About the thing during the dance choreography- you knew what you were doing-"
"No I don't!" Baby screams, thrashing his arms and legs like a kid throwing a tantrum. He falls flat on his bed and starts kicking and throwing his limbs even more, as Jinu leaps up from the bed.
"Baby!" Jinu yells. "Baby- stop! You're not an actual baby!"
Baby starts screaming, like a little kid whose gotten lost in a shopping centre and can't find his parents. Like a spoiled kid whose parents didn't allow them to buy a new toy. Like a baby.
"Do you want to go into timeout?" Jinu asks, covering his ears like the rest of the Saja Boys. Baby freezes at that, turning to his leader. "You wouldn't dare."
"You need it."
"I'm not a child!"
"Just so you can calm down! Like I do all the time! You need time!"
"I'm not a child, Jinu-hyung!"
"You sure are acting like one, Baby!"
"That's it." Abby's voice interrupts their arguing, as he grabs Baby and throws him over his shoulder. "Hey, hey! What are you doing? Put me down!"
"Nuh-uh," Abby doesn't look at him, but Baby can feel the smirk forming on his lips. "You're going to timeout. For messing up our choreography and acting like a baby."
"Stop!" Baby hits his back, anger rising. "I said put me down!"
Abby obeys, but he puts him down into a corner, making the maknae face the wall.
"You can't put me in timeout in twenty! I'm a full grown adult!"
"And you're mentally eight!" Abby says back, grabbing him when Baby tries to make a run for it. "Baby!" He yells, though his voice doesn't sound angry like Baby had expected it to be. "Baby, just until you cool off, okay? You need to calm down, we wont give you a time limit or anything."
The other Saja Boys catch up, watching as Abby pats Baby's head, proud of their maknae as he did not try to run again.
"Baby, dear," Romance tells him, "it's just for a while, promise."
Baby rolls his eyes. "Yeah, yeah, whatev."
Jinu take a breath in, before saying, "I'll have to take away your devices as well."
That's what brings back Baby's attention. He lunges at Jinu, but instead of attacking him he goes on his knees and poses as if praying. "Jinu, PLEASE, anything BUT THAT. JINU-"
"Baby, you need to have a punishment for this," Jinu sighs. "Our live with Huntr/x is in two days- we can't afford to mess this up. Plus, it means you can practise more."
Baby glares at him, crocodile tears pricking in his eyes. Mystery covers his mouth. "Oh no."
"Baby," Abby tries, "it's for your own good."
At that, Baby keeps pouting, but drags himself to the corner of the living room and sitting down, dramatically. He wipes his fake tears and rests his face.
It's been a while since Abby had put him in timeout, so Baby peeks his head out behind him.
"Can I... get up now...?"
Jinu looks up from his computer and gives him a smile and a thumbs up.
Mystery pats his leg, telling Baby to sit with him.
Baby does so, but he doesn't look at any of them, too embarrassed too.
"Baby, dear," Romance asks, "can you tell us why you did that-?"
Baby looks away, biting his lip. "I'm sorry, I didn't expect it to go so far."
"You messing up the choreography?" Mystery questions, tilting his head.
"No, I was trying to prank you guys," Baby admits, tucking his knees in as he leans onto Mystery's chest. "Clearly, it didn't work, sorry."
"Why were you trying to prank us?" Romance looks at him, frowning like a disappointed mother.
"You guys keep babying me," Baby mutters, looking down, "I know it might be my name and my whole idol personality, and I might look cute and apparently to you guys, act cute, but still, no need to treat me like a child twenty-four/seven."
Romance and Abby look at each other full of guilt- the two who do it the most.
Mystery looks down at Baby, though he looks... proud?
Jinu smiles down at Baby. "Baby, I'm glad you told us, although you know that you could've told us earlier? There was no need for that mess."
Baby frowns. "You guys would've laughed it off." Mystery wouldn't, but that doesn't mean that the others wont either. "It's fine sometimes, but not every second of my damn life."
"We're sorry, Baby," Abby scratches his neck. "Seriously."
Romance almost grabs his face, but then darts for his hands when he realises. "Baby, my love, I'm sorry- I didn't know that you didn't like it."
"It's all good," Baby waves it off. He didn't want them to make too much of a big deal with it- plus, the many fans did, three more people wasn't that bad.
"I am really sorry for not stepping in and instead joining in," Jinu admits, clutching Baby's shoulder. "Make sure to set boundries- even with the fans- it's your life."
Baby grins up at him, greatful.
"But, please tell us when you're feeling uncomfortable- next time, okay?"
Baby nods.
"Good, you're free to go now, if you want," Abby tells him, patting his back, gently.
Baby grins, getting up off Mystery's lap and saluting. "Great! I'm gonna go finish off my game-!"
"Nuh-uh," Mystery replies, grabbing Baby's wrist and pulling him back down.
"Noooooooo!" Now Baby actually wants to cry- no fake tears.
"It's okay!" Romance states, pulling out a whole box behind of him. "Who wants there nails done while watching 'Business Proposal™?"
Maybe this wont be so bad.
BONUS:
"How did you even find out, Jinu-Hyung?" Baby asks him, watching as Romance paints Baby's nails with a light shade of pink.
"I have a few... minions, you could say," Jinu smirks down at him, patting the maknae's head weirdly as he was waiting for his own nail polish to dry. "Minions..?" Baby asks himself, looking at Romance, Mystery, and Abby.
They look away.
Guiltyyy.
"Would you look at that," Baby sighs, looking down sadly at his nails. "You traitors."
"Don't you go throwing more tantrums-"
Baby interrupts Jinu by grabbing the nail brush out of Romance's hand, and flicking it so it gets onto his signature hair, Mystery's bangs, and Abby's shirt plus abs.
They all look up to stare at the maknae.
"Baby," Mystery says, voice quiet. "You'll pay."
