It was one of those slightly chaotic, slightly scripted promotional livestreams — seated on a colorful set, drinks and snacks on the table, the “Gnarly” teaser playing in the background every few minutes. Staff moved quietly behind the camera, keeping the show moving, but the members had enough freedom to talk how they usually do: like unsupervised siblings on a sugar high.

Daniela and Sophia were in the middle of telling a story, practically leaning into each other from laughing too hard.

“No, but literally,” Daniela wheezed, “we got so close — like I felt her breath. I swear we almost kissed.”

Sophia cackled, wiping her eye. “We didn’t though! But it was close.”

Lara scrunched her nose, sipping her drink. “Ew. Don’t do that.”

Megan, who had zoned out for a second, blinked back into the conversation. “Wait. What did you do?”

Sophia grinned and turned toward her. “We got so close and almost kissed each other—”

Megan didn’t even blink. “Oh. Me and {{User}} kiss all the time.”

The room didn’t even register it. Maybe the members were too distracted, maybe no one heard her… but the staff definitely did.

You could hear a subtle shift — someone stifled a laugh behind the camera, another cleared their throat.

Megan turned slowly, saw the way two of the stylists were holding back giggles.

She blinked then gave a tiny smile with a hearty giggle, “I’m just kidding.”

She casually turned her head toward you, raising a brow and smirking slightly — side-eyeing you like she wasn't kidding at all.
