Erika Mori ♦ 

style

Standing at a sad height of 160 cm and a healthy 52 kg, Chariya is most of the time looked at like a small girl rather than an actual adult, something she constantly reminds people of daily when they make fun of her for being such a shorty. Long brown hair and rather full lips she tries to make herself ier to seem more her age only to be completely shot down and teased because she reminds people of a little girl playing dress up in her mom's closet. 

Chariya's style is all over the place, but you can bet whatever she wears she will make it look fierce and absolutely amazing, her overall prensence making up for her small stature. She can dress up or dress down any outfit, but it doesn't matter even if she's wearing sweatpants and a sweatshirt she will wear some form of heel to make herself seem taller with the rest of the girls. Skinny jeans, crop tops, high waisted skirts and shorts, jewelry Chariya will not leave the house unless she is sure that her entire appearance is on point. 

the inside.

personality

Chariya is the definition of sassy. No seriously you look up sassy or sass in the dictionary and her picture will be right there next to it. She has a comeback for everything, and never ever gives in since she has to be the winner in a verbal arguement, no matter who is talking to her. She has gotten in trouble because of many times, accidently talking back to one of her instructors or sunbae, her no brain-to-mouth filter creating issues for her as well as some of the members all the time. Now that doesn't mean Chariya doesn't have any redeeming qualities because she does, despite the mouth that never stops, her sass and stubborness is sometimes a good thing since she doesn't let anyone else give up either. She's the one to go to when you need a swift kick in the to get yourself back together, and has the opposite way of motativing people. Her running you hard and talking more just means that she wants you do do the best you can do and can see the potential in people. Because of this Chariya can be pretty charming when she wants to be and as much as gets her into trouble it can get her out, a few nice compliments here, a couple of innocent looks there and bam! She walks out of a store with bags full of stuff all discounted. She is also very very adaptable to her surroundings, from moving around a lot, and is kind of the fix it girl around the dorm. Have a broken computer? Chariya can fix it in a matter of a few hours, shelf keeps falling out? Give her a hammer and a couple of nails and its fixed. She can fix just about anything that's broken and is the go to girl if you have a problem with something. 

Now despite her crazy sassy comments and overflow of charm Chariya is actually really awkward. She'll say something that will just make people turn and look at her, questioning her intelligence or like she had just grown two heads cause what she had just said made literally no damn sense, or make awkward jokes on variety shows making everyone groan and roll their eyes at her lame attempts of being funny. Because she's very interested in her appearance and looking her best, Chariya is sometimes looked at being superficial and fake since it seems like she doesn't care about whats on the inside and only paying attention on the outside. Some people actually get pretty turned off from Chairya's constant worrying over her makeup and outfits, espeically when she's trying to add different accessories to what most people would call a lazy outfit, and has to be pulled out the door because she'll take way too long with trying to look better when they were heading to the salon. And she's also considered a big flirt a lot of the time getting her teased by the other girls for pulling herself too thin with all the guys she's hanging around with, even though she was really only being friendly. Chaiya has a problem being a little over critical to people when she sees that they're doing something worng over and over again coming across as a know it all and pompus, especially when she'll be making mistakes herself. However she is extremely loyal to her family and the other members as well as the butterfly trainees, and will get into a fight for them and stick up for them if she deems that they're not being treated the way she thinks they should be, that being one of the many reasons for her getting in trouble with the instructors. 

The one thing that you could never do is forget Chariya or mistake her for someone else, and even while on stage you can easily tell her apart from the rest due to her overwhelming pressence and refusal to become part of the background. But overall Chariya is the sassiest girl you'll ever meet, full of spice but is kind to those who she's close to.

trainee life

Chariya actually auditioned for YG when she was visiting Korea with a couple of her friends for a vacation. They had tried to convince her not to since if she did make it through then she wasn't going to be able to move to Korea and do school in Thailand, but did she listen to them? Of course not and did what she had wanted anyway, She had made through the rounds of auditions easily only fumbling a little while speaking Korean, since it wasn't her native language and was accepted as a trainee. It didn't take much to convince her parents to go, as if they could tell her no anyway, and stayed with her cousin who was living in Seoul. Chariya had started off on the wrong foot with some of the other trainees because of her overconfident attitude and inablity to shut when she's supposed to. But after she had stuck up for one of the more meek trainees who was getting bombarded with critique she was given another chance with everyone else. 

Obviously Chariya excelled at rapping, it being one of her better talents, her singing wasn't the worst, but she needed a lot of work on her dance. That was when she had gotten closer to the dancers of EQSOL because they were willing to help her when the choreographers wouldn't so she had caught up and even started improving her endurance and strength so she could continue to keep up with everyone else. She wasn't picked on because of her different race and being mixed, mostly because Chariya wouldn't let anyone and if she had seen someone do that to another person she immediately gave them a huge tongue lashing lecturing about how they're uneducated and dumb. It was pretty obvious though that she was a pretty good fit with YG her attitude being strong so it took someone who also had a strong personality to rope her in. After her years of training she was extremely happy to learn that she would be debuting with everyone who she had gotten close to mainly being the Spark and Crystal members, as well as Seulhye because short people for life!

personality

Although he doesn't show it, Joshua is extremely intelligent. Seriously he's about as smart as they come and is very clever. He always has an answer no matter the question.. He is also pretty considerate to those he's close to. Though from time to time his consideration is hard to see and you have to question if he's doing it for you or for himself you can't deny that he's doing something kind for another person. Joshua has an easy time adapting to his surroundings. He takes everything in and doesn't let his emotions get the best of him, trying to stay positive no matter how bad the situation seems at first. He's also very quiet, he doesn't talk much to those he's close to and even less to those he doesn't know, but tries to not come across as rude or ungrateful because of his lack of talking. Sehun is extremely simple, he doesn't like things that are too extravagent or out there, liking things more on the calm and easy side.

But because of that Joshua does come across as being rude and cold, becuase he doesn't really show what he's feeling too often, not wanting to bother those around him with his own problems. He comes off as one dimensional and narrow-minded because he doesn't talk much and people have been known to go as far as call him boring. When asked about his opinion on a topic that could be considered sensitve Joshua will often divert the question to someone else and find a way not to answer it, not wnating to step on anyone's toes or offend someone with his thoughts, making him pretty non confrontational and cowardly in other people's eyes, but no one would think that he was just being nice and harass him about not having any thoughts of his own.

relatonship

Chariya first caught a glimpse of Joshua when Spark was visiting Blossom for one of their performances and she ran right into him, I know so cliche, and just as she was about to yell and tell him off for not seeing her, like how can you not, she caught one glimpse of his face and immediately fell into a trance at how attractive she thought he was. Roza and Yilin just kind of stared at the two of them shocked that Chariya hadn't said something yet and that she was left utterly speechless, something that almost never happens. It was the start of a huge crush for her, and just got deeper when he had asked her if she was alright, being the gentleman that he is. "Are you alright? I'm so sorry I should have been paying more attention." Chariya just stares at Joshua, who was now kind of panicking because she wasn't saying anything back. Roza moves to nudge her a bit laughing having a small idea of what was going on in her head. "Um Riya. Earth to Riya." Chariya blinks and snaps out of it, pushing her unni away and shakes her head giving him a small smile. "No, it's alright I'm sorry as well." He smiles back giving the girls a bow before joining the rest of s who were now laughing at him, while Roza grins and starts to run off to see the Blossom members. "Just wait until I tell everyone Riya's got herself a little crush on a cute guy!" Chariya snaps out of her daze completely glaring at the running girl and runs after her. "Don't you dare! I will put extra chili powder in your food for this, and hack your instagram account!" 

After that Chariya had gotten to become friends with Jun, who was emmensely amused with the infatuation that she had with his bandmate. But because she was around more often it let her get to know Joshua and fall deeper in love with him as she visited more and more often. They soon got to be friends, kind of since she was caught staring at him a lot. Joshua smiles at Chariya, chuckling when she had trailed off yet again in their conversation. "Are you doing alright? You seem distracted today." Chariya, who was busy staring again just nods a little too hard cracking her neck in the progress and sighs looking annoyed now. "Uh-hh yeah I'm fine. Sorry guess I'm just a little out of it today." He shakes his head blinking at the crack but doesn't point it out, being polite. "It's okay, if you need to rest I can take you home. A girl shouldn't be walking the streets alone it's not very safe." It was her turn to shake her head giving a bigger smile trying to ignore her embarrassment. "No really I'm fine, and you don't need to go out of your way like that. If I have to I can always call one of my unni's or cousin to take me back." Joshua was already getting up and grabs their things still smiling holding out her bag. "Nonsense. I'll walk you home. It's getting late and I'm sure they're all busy or doing something, I have nothing else to do it's no big deal." He proceeds to walk her all the way back to her dorm, them conversing about nothing in particular, Chariya still just crushing even more hardcore at his generous nature, her sassy and powerful self, resorted to nothing in front of this one person. When they reached the destination Joshua turns to leave waving to her. "Have a good night, papaya-yaya." Chariya freezes and turns around her hand still mid air at hearing the nickname. "How did you know that nickname?" "Jun told me. He said you really liked it and that I should call you it to become closer with you." Chariya nods and gives a stiff smile, not able to tell him that she absolutely hated that nickname and tells him goodbye. "I see well see you later Joshua, thank you again for walking me home." 

Chariya and Joshua stayed like this for the longest time, while she was trying to work up the courage that she liked him. Did she ever work up the nerve to tell him? Yes. Did it work in the way that she had orginally thought? Absolutely not. She had planned everything out and thought about the way she was going to word everything and explain as her usual confident self, but in the end all of that went right out the window and she felt that she had made a complete fool out of herself, something that Chariya hates almost as much as people underestimating her, and ulitmately was forced into admitting it, while Joshua had proved he wasn't as oblivious to her feelings that she had thought he was. Chariya sat there on the bench waiting for Joshua to show up, checking her makeup and picking at her impecible outfit she had so carefully chosen. Joshua shows up a little while later smiles and rubs the back of his head looking apologetic. "I'm sorry for being late." She jumps up in surprise, almost dropping her phone but regains her cool, what's left out it, and gives a smooth smile. "It's okay I wasn't waiting very long." He sits down next to her, holding out a coffee he had bought for her on the way, a straight americano no extra just the way she liked it. "So what did you want to talk to me about?" Chariya blinks at the coffee taking it tentitively taking a sip, sighing when it was just the way she liked. She stiffens at the question playing with the skirt she was wearing and looks to the side. "Well it's kind of awkward to say..." She trails off a bit cursing herself for not following her plan and being a complete idiot. He smiles a little also looking away and watches the people walking past them. "Is it about you liking me?" Chariya almost drops her coffee in shock and stares at Joshua as he laughs, being right on the money. "H-how?" "It's not all that hard to figure out when you're staring a lot and act differently with me than you do with everyone else. I was worried at first that you acutally hated me. I was kind of deserpate for the sassmaster to say something sassy to me, but I heard Jun teasing you and pieced it all together after that." She just stared at him in shock that she was totally outsmarted by the boy sitting next to her, and opened and closed , once again left speechless by Joshua. He saw the question on her face and laughed softly. "Why didn't I say anything? I didn't want to embarrass you or make you uncomfortable so I just left it alone and pretended that I knew nothing. There's something that I would like to ask you something though if that's okay." Chariya nods still just staring at him speechless. "Would you like to go out with me?" She stares and stares for a moment, making Joshua look at her a bit worriedly until she jumped off the bench pointing a finger at him which made him jump in surprise. "How dare you! How dare you run over my moment with your smooth words and kind gestures! Do you know how long I thought this through? I had everything ready and planned on what I would say and you had to go and ruin it! Now what am I supposed to do? I've been outshined." Joshua blinks at the rant but laughs looking extremely happy. "There's that fireball personality I kept wanting to see. As for what to say, it'd be really nice if you said yes." Chariya blinks a little when he didn't really react to her sudden rant and outburst but then sits down meekly, thouroughly embarrassed and gives a small nod. "Yes I'll go out with you."

comments/suggestion

I couldn't help but make another character for this story, I just love it so much and it's so much fun and really helps with the writers block funk I've been in lately. But if someone comes by with another better character then by all means use them instead ^_^ And I don't mind adjusting her so she could be in the butterfly group too. Thanks again! 
PS. I'm really really sorry for the super cringeworthly love interest section. I didn't mean for it to come out that cheesy.
