It all started (for me) in the chat we had for executing O.K, which was Gemini's secret birthday present to Chiisana. I basically finished the mix and videos days ago, and frankly was confused as to why we haven't revealed it to Chiisana yet—especially since it's been a week since her birthday. But I was clearly alone in wanting to give Chiisana her gift asap, even if it meant I weren't around for it, since the others were adamant about making sure everything was perfect and that all of the Gemini members were online during the reveal.
Cut to today, when after very busy days, we finally found a window during which the majority of or all of the members could be online simultaneously AND able to join a skype call.
Scheming abound over in the O.K chat:
[5/18/2015 2:55:01 PM] Eva: i'm kinda scared chiisa's gonna go nap so i'll try to keep talking to her
[5/18/2015 2:57:19 PM] Eva: oh man it's almost 8 AM in australia
[5/18/2015 2:57:24 PM] Eva: wonder if jeffrey would be up..
(note: actually I miscalculated because I didn't realize he moved to a different timezone)
[5/18/2015 3:01:01 PM] 「 Mimi 」: or I can be like
[5/18/2015 3:01:02 PM] 「 Mimi 」: gaisssss

[5/18/2015 5:27:14 PM] Jay: yayy jeffrey ur here finallyyyy
BUT JEFFREY ARRIVES WITH BAD NEWS.
[5/18/2015 5:34:24 PM] Hot Babe: i am leaving

[5/18/2015 5:34:26 PM] Hot Babe: in 5 mins

[5/18/2015 5:34:37 PM] Jay: UH LETS ROLL

[5/18/2015 5:34:40 PM] Eva: let's gooo
[5/18/2015 5:34:43 PM] Eva: LET'S FLOY (note: we are mocking jeffrey's opening lines in O.K)
[5/18/2015 5:34:43 PM] Eva: LOLL
[5/18/2015 5:34:45 PM] Hot Babe: what so we do
[5/18/2015 5:35:19 PM] Eva: jeffrey get on gemini chat and call it and then we'll react like WTF JEFFREY WANTS A CALL? THIS IS WEIRD
[5/18/2015 5:35:28 PM] Eva: and [chiisa]'s curiosity will do the rest of the work
The Gemini chat is calling!! There's chaos. Why is Jeffrey calling? Wtf??? Chiisana hurry and pick up; we're all in call now!
She joins us. There's a brief awkward silence as NOBODY KNOWS WHAT TO DO.
Suddenly I go, "OH MY GOD..... THIS IS SO FUNNY. WAIT I THINK YOU GUYS HAVE TO WATCH THIS VIDEO HAHAHA. IT JUST SHOWED UP ON MY SUBSCRIPTIONS,"
and I link the O.K video.
We all revel in Chiisana's shock and happy tears. ;u;
Suddenly, Jeffrey interjects with, "Guys I'm leaving for class in one minute." I think to myself, hey the video is only 2 minutes and 30 second's long. That should be enough time for Chiisa to make it through the song before Jeffrey leaves.
And then Mimi says, "Hey, this is a pretty cool video too!"
AND WHAT DOES SHE LINK?
GEMINI SINGING RED VELVET'S ICE CREAM CAKE AS A BIRTHDAY PRESENT TO ME.
At this point, it's been over a minute of Chiisana going, "What is happening...? Oh my gosh... You guyyyss.... I can't believe it........."
BUT NOW WE ARE BOTH competing broken records of: "What is happening..... Oh my gosh..... What theeeeeee.... What is this........" except with the addition of "HOOOOOLY SHIIIIIIIIT WHAT THE FUCK YOU GUYS?? DID I JUST GET RICK ROLLED?!??!!"
Chiisana: "I'm so confused.."
Me: "I think I'm more confused.. I THOUGHT I WAS IN CONTROL OF THIS SITUATION.... "
And naturally, Jeffrey has to go to class and ends up hanging up before I recover from reeling from shock LMAO. Love that punk of a kid.
Man, I don't care that we call Jay our resident saint; they're all sneaky little devils :'(! I had nooooo idea.... And the whole time, I thought I was calling the shots around here too LOL.
This is a really lovely cover though; I'm so happy!!! My bbbbyyys all sound absolutely charming, the blend is on point as always, video's got hella more aesthetic game than I've got, and the mix is great! Aaaaaahhh I can't believe they pulled this off—not because I don't believe in their ability, but because they're such busy people that I never expected them to take so much time out of their lives to make something like this for me ;_; Wahhhh I'm so thankful. This is the best family. <3
Please check out my awesome friends' work!!

Gemini’s back!
And we don’t know about you, but Eva’s feeling 22, so happy belated! ♥
Not gonna lie, this project was a mixing fiasco and a half because we had to do it all without our lovely and talented mixer, Eva ;___; DON’T EVER LEAVE US GIRL. WE APPRECIATE YOU. In its entirety, this project was literally mixed down and passed around at least 3-4 times between Mimi, Ryan, and Chiisa prior to completion = u = In light of that, we hope you all enjoy this special treat since we haven’t posted in a while! We promise we actually have a lot coming up right around the corner, so keep an eye out! And finally to our precious leader Eva -we hope this lives up to your standards ♥ we did our best to learn from your example and we can’t thank you enough for doing all that you do as a one woman super team C: CAN WE BE LIKE YOU WHEN YOU GROW UP? weloveyoubbygirl ♥
WAHHH THEY'RE SO NICE. <33333 And rapping!Chiisana is back YAY!
Also, this is the song that I liked so much that I had it on repeat for a while, learned the the rap, and even learned the dance to the chorus. (And I will fiercely deny that I dance, even in the face of videographic evidence.)
So I'm kinda mad. I would have wanted to sing this song with them!!! HMPH. (I really love them bah)
