i do think he's such a shadow leader and i love him for it ♥ but his playfulness makes me forget that he's everybody's hyung and so he does have a hold on them. the fact that kris is the nominal and public leader also makes easier for me to forget lol. but my personal headcanon is that xiumin has an instinctual understanding of people's needs so he caters to or humors everybody subtly so everybody respects him back.
