Chapter Text
“Okay chat, y'all have been spamming me about this upcoming game that's supposed to be released in like a month or so. I think it was called Reawaker or something similar?”
jinniesferret: yess I watched the trailer and it looks so good!!
paintingwithlara: ohh yes you must play it as soon as it gets released
hyune_s: please make it a seriessss
Hyunjin watched his stream chat get flooded by pleas for him to play this game. It has been around a week since people started spamming “have you watched Reawaker trailer?” on all his social media accounts, of course it piqued his interest.
“Alright guys, since I love you all so much I thought I'd watch it live with you. What's better than a live reaction, right? But don't get disappointed if I end up being uninterested.” He chuckled.
He opened his steam account and searched for the title. After readjusting the volume, he played the trailer of what seemed to be an RPG and narrative-driven game.
It started with chaos – a village in flames, lifeless corpses scattered around the blood-soaked ground. The few people that were alive were screaming their lungs out, terror visible in their voice, yet a single one was just standing – back facing the camera, quiet, unmoving, simply watching.
igottheimpostor: Hyunjin-ah, did you know Felix is the voice actor of the main character?
Although he was pretty immersed in the trailer, he never forgot to take a peak at his comments from time to time, he loved interacting with his viewers after all. But the comment that caught his eye made him frown, as he was not familiar with the name.
“Felix? Who is that?” He tilted his head as his eyes drifted back to the trailer.
i_am_tree: wdym you don't know Lix?
igottheimpostor: he's a famous voice actor! tho he usually does voice acting for audiobooks, this is his second time voice acting for a game, he was so excited since it's a very awaited game, probably also his biggest project until now, it was really cute to watch
i_am_tree: and a model! he's also a model!! Thought Jeongin told you about him, they worked together
“I don’t know everyone who worked with Innie guys,” he laughed.
cookiesncream: he’s such an ethereal model! Hyune you should live react to his photoshoots
Just as he was about to reply, a deep voice resonated in his headphones that made him flinch. His head snapped back to the monitor on which the trailer was playing, and apparently the main character – who, of course, turned out to be the quiet, unmoving man – finally made his appearance, turning his face to the camera.
“I will never be one of you,” he spoke with the deepest and hottest voice Hyunjin has ever heard.
A blade materialized out of thin air in his hand, a blue flame sur r ounding it, and he lunged forward.
The next scene found the MC fighting what seemed to be shadows – or demons?
hyune_s: jsdcjsjs I was waiting for this reaction
i_am_tree: there you go, that was Lix
americanooo: lmao not even Hyunjin can escape the Felix effect~
He didn't even know if he was paying attention to the trailer anymore, as he was now fully focused on the character's voice. Just who even sounds like that?!
“Who even… That's a hella hot voice!”
hf_art: we lost another soldier guys, just wait until he sees his visuals
His mind was already spiralling. He never thought it was possible to get turned on just by hearing a voice. What the hell is wrong with him?
leylaz: alr, this felix guy aside, what do you think about the trailer? will you consider playing the game?
staytgt: @leylaz oh trust me, he'll definitely play it
“The trailer, right…” he cleared his throat.
With one final look at the monitor, the trailer ended with the quote “Will you face your demons, or will you become one?” and the title together with the release date fading in the background.
REAWAKER. Release date: 20th May. Wishlist now.
And he did. He moved his mouse and clicked on 'wishlist’. Focusing back on the chat screen, he continued his reply.
“To be honest, it actually looks good. Great graphics, promising story and good voice acting. I kind of understand the hype now. I wonder how long the game will be. What do you guys think? I say around 10 hours. We could stream it then.”
staytgt: knew it
hf_art: i bet you my ateez album collection that he will search him up the moment he ends the stream
quokkas_are.cute: yayy i'm so glad you're gonna stream it! i can't wait
“Yah, hf_art you make me sound like a stalker,” he laughed.
He wasn't a stalker, but he sure was a curious cat, so yes, his fan's Ateez collection is safe, because he will definitely search this man up after ending the stream. Not necessary because of his voice, but how come so many of his viewers knew him and he didn't? He thought he had reached the chronically online stage by now, but it looks like he might have been wrong.
…
Okay, it might be because of his voice too.
“Alright guys! Yes, I like the trailer, yes, I'll play it with you on stream and yes, Felix's voice is attractive, y'all were right. Moving on, what should we play tonight? I'll make a poll.”
americanooo: wbk
After a few hours of chatting and raging – the chat chose Valorant –, it was time to end the live.
“Okay guys, thank you so much for your support and for watching me lose my mind on Valo once again. Next time I'll choose the game myself since you all conspired to make me suffer,” he laughed while exiting the game.
paintingwithlara: losing your mind over Valo or over a specific man that so happens to have the deepest voice?
zeya_ort: chat am I allowed to ship?
cookiesncream: half of us already are so dw
Hyunjin read some of the comments that he managed to catch and chuckled, rolling his eyes.
“Sure guys, y'all do your thing. Once again, thank you so much for being here with me, have a good night and we'll see each other tomorrow at 8pm, as always. Bye bye my dumplings!” he winked and blew a flying kiss toward the camera, then ended his stream.
However, this time, he didn't leave his desk to go shower and sleep as he usually does after ending his night stream. Instead, he found himself opening a google page and typing 'Felix' in the search bar. He was simply curious. He had to see what that deep voiced man looked like.
The first one that appeared was a long haired blond man with freckles.
“Cute” Hyunjin mumbled, while scrolling in hopes to find the desired voice actor.
When he couldn't, he ended up searching for the cast of Reawaker. He found out his full name was Lee Felix, so he searched again.
The same adorable blond man with the sweetest smile appeared.
“Huh? Ain't no way…” he muttered as he searched again.
'Lee Felix Reawaker Voice Actor'
Same face showed up. Now Hyunjin was beyond confused. There was simply no way. So he ended up clicking on him to read some information.
And it turned out that yes, ’that’ Lee Felix, that adorable looking human, was indeed the deep voice guy. Hyunjin was stunned. Not only did his voice not match his face at all, but the man was insanely gorgeous.
Spoiler: he ended up spending around an hour that night to read more about this man and look at – or rather admire – some of his photoshoots. He truly wouldn't exaggerate if he were to say that this was undeniably the most beautiful man he had ever laid eyes on.
And on that night, Hyunjin went to sleep with a new goal in his mind – he has to get to know this man, personally.
