ateez as characters in an au i’m working on, a thread.
park seonghwa— the cursed one.
“of course he is mad, hongjoong. he hasn’t aged, for over a thousand years. he’s not living, nor dead. he is stuck, in a place full of the reincarnation of his past. he is reminded of the faces he wants to forget. tell me, could you stay sane?”

kim hongjoong— the curse
“do you see it now? why you are his past and his future? this is a sick joke from the gods and angels. you two are never to reunite, ever, but each time you are reincarnated, you are always drawn to him.
you, kim hongjoong, is an angel’s curse.”

choi san— the moon
“i am an inevitable being— untouchable, but inevitable. sometimes i walk along the mortals, and i would i whisper my thoughts into their dreams, but i was never to be seen. was. until the cursed angel called my name.”

jeong yunho— the time traveller
“that is the only being that can fool the angels. however, every time he searches through the timelines for seonghwa’s curse, the Sorcerer is always in that exact timeline to manipulate his views. to put it simply, jeong yunho takes no sides.”

kang yeosang— the answer
“i am the most powerful sorcerer, yes, but sadly, i’m the only one left of my kind. i can, in fact, undo your lover’s curse, but why do you think i haven’t done it all these years? do you think i feed on his agony? no, hongjoong. there’s always a price.”

jung wooyoung— the grim reaper
“i’ve seen the moon, up close. now that’s the only soul i would never reap.”
“why?”
“have you seen the moon, mortal?”
“not in his corporeal form, no.”
“your loss. shame he comes out at night, though.”
“why?”
“because i work night and day.”

choi jongho— the intel
“oh, him? he’s god’s favourite, and seonghwa’s. he keeps us updated with the latest Heavenly news. no one up there, suspects anything because no one dares to cross the god and his angels. and no one here, grim reaper included, dares to cross park seonghwa”

song mingi— the shadow
“he is only this cold because he is tied to a story he hates. he is the mortal’s closest friend, but he is also his Shadow. yes, the very Shadow that k*lls hongjoong every time he gets too... close. mingi has to watch his friend die, over and over again.”

[and lastly, a little sneak peek]
“you’re seonghwa, right? i’ve been seeing you in my dreams. like, a lot.”
seonghwa froze. that can’t be good, he thought. hongjoong, in every version of him ever reborn, was not supposed to have any recollection of seonghwa.

beside him, the moon— invisible to hongjoong— stifled a chuckle.
“you look paler than i am, hwa,” he whispered, his voice, always so soft and haunting, sent shivers down seonghwa’s spine. even hongjoong shuddered a little.
“san,” seonghwa called under his breath,

“san,” seonghwa called under his breath,
hoping hongjoong would not hear a thing. “what the hell did you do?”
“why do you always assume it’s me?” san raised an eyebrow, evidently annoyed. “it’s not me, i didn’t do anything!”
“then why does he know me THIS early? is the curse broken?”
