"Wow, Xavi! Those are great ideas!" Hong Li exclaimed. Which to some could be read as sarcastic, but he truly meant it as he rolled back on the balls of his feet, clearly showing the signs of his excitement. Unlike the others, he didn't start stretching, but instead focused on following all the threads of conversation. In fact, it didn't even occur to him to get ready for their dance. "Elimination and tons of punishment? That sounds.....ah wait..." He trailed off, once again rethinking his choices because in retrospect, this was a terrible moment and KR chimed in just in time to tell them all so. "Yeah...never mind."

Ankor was already half way to jumping up and down at Xavier's suggestions, completely on board despite the opposition already raised against this plan. "But I like the idea of the slave punishment. What's wrong with such a complicated win and fail system. Even if Shin did come up with a good idea..." he pouted. Of course, someone had to go and ruin the fun before it even really started, but he could still voice his opinion. Probably for the best they didn't listen to Xavier though, since Ankor didn't plan to win. He usually didn't, enjoying the act of playing far more than any thrills of winning. He wouldn't tell anyone that though because it'd ruin the atmosphere of competition that they all so loved. "At least be creative with the song and outfit though."

Since Shin felt antsy over Xavier's evil suggestions, he felt glad that KR stepped in for once and stopped it. As their manager entered the practice room, he turned to listen to that conversation though he never stopped loosening his muscles. If he intended to dance hard, he'd do it with the same amount of seriousness that he would for stage and hell if he would lose. At this point, it was a challenge and Shin didn't back down from those. "Alright, sounds like we've got it planned out well enough. Can we just get to the dancing now?"

Daesuk shook his head at the slight rudeness that the rest of the group exhibited by not properly addressing their manager that they called out themselves. Well, he did at least, but because KR told him to. "Manager hyung, you came. Thank you. They're planning a dance competition of our debut. You'll film for us right?" He saw the camera of course and Ankor started giggling, taking excitement from that fact. Obviously they knew they already had their manager hooked.

Hong Li grinned, waving at Taeksu from the other side of the room. "Film my good side, kay."
