[Because sometimes you die at, like, 13 and you don't get to be a teenager!!!
He hates that he is fond of Niah as much as he is because he is aware it's just Joonghyuk's stupid soul. But he is continuing to not acknowledge that part.]
I can't believe I have such a lack of trust here.
[It doesn't sound like he believes this.
He stands back up.]
It's a nightclub, by the way. You been in? You can look around while-- [a glance at Niah] --I get chased for fifteen minutes.
[He will come back to this in a second. First:] Race ya. [He doesn't clarify whether he is racing Niah or Joonghyuk, he really just takes off in a sprint toward the closet.
Honestly, he assumes Niah is going to chase his ass, and Joonghyuk is going to broodily continue after them at the same pace. But what does he know? It's not like they have far to go anyway. Stupid.
He does slow down to a stop at the entrance to wait(?) on Joonghyuk(?).]
And you're really going to tell me? Alright, I'll bite, what are you interested in?
[ Unless, your life is actually in danger or SOMETHING URGENT. Niah has chased Jason because of animal instincts but Joonghyuk isn't too far behind. He probably power walked over. The last thing he wants is to be the one lagging behind.
They can go into the Closet where Jason belongs. It goes on... Forever? ]
Videogames. Cooking. Martial arts.
[ He'd also say weapons and image training, but that doesn't sound... Nice? Normal? Still, these are predictable, probably. ]
He is going to run anyway. Besides, Niah doesn't mind. Niah validates him. Because dogs are the best.
Also, this is very funny. Joonghyuk has not been in Jason's room. What a fool. He will understand one day, if he goes in.] Well, the cooking part already throws you into a higher rank than my old mentor. [Sorry, Bruce, but it's true.
Jason sticks his head in to glance around, and then he slides in. Yeah, he belongs here. You will now be subjected soon to my pinterest boards of awful bad boy clothing aesthetics.]
I can cook to survive, I guess. I like martial arts. [This is not a surprise.] What videogames do you like?
will jason ever invite him to his room and help not the bad boy aesthetic that Joonghyuk is going to judge because despite being a gamer nerd yjh dresses very modern classy when he doesn't slam JOCK or GAMER button. ]
Co-op games. [ He looks through the racks and, unfortunately, black is his favorite color. ] I mostly played FPS and MOBA, but I enjoyed RPGs and MMOs on the side.
[He smirks like he's obviously kidding. It was a BAD JOKE. He shrugs one shoulder. He thinks he's going to look at some shirts, but he gets distracted looking at jackets instead. Figures. Oh noooo, black denim onesss. He has the worst tastes.]
Never pegged you for a co-op kind of dude actually. I like RPGs. Shooters when I need to let off steam. I like anything that can make you think.
[ That is such a bad joke that he gives him such a tired look from his side. Niah comes to look at Joonghyuk, then circles to see JASON'S LOVE FOR BLACK JACKETS. You touch a denim one and he'd tilt his head. ]
I assumed you could be busy.
[ Good to know Jason has work-life balance. Maybe. ]
Working in teams is more challenging than playing solo. [ But he's also a solo player. ] You like to think?
[THE DENIM IS BLACK, THOUGH? He prefers the leather biker jacket anyway, so he takes it… Then he looks for a softer jacket to go under it, but in red of course. Listen.
He stops suddenly as he sees……pet things. HOLD UP.]
Yeah, I like to think and read despite people here pegging me for a tiny penis muscle head.
[ This may be the sound of a snort... It might have been a laugh. We will never know. Joonghyuk is just getting a plain black sweater with a v-neck and another plain white t-shirt.
Niah will take the black denim jacket then in his mouth since he saw Jason stare at it for so long. ]
[ Joonghyuk looks normal and the same by the time Jason looks over. Now he’s looking at slacks and pants.
Niah channels the core desires to protect and provide. Also very Asian dad to hear/see child want something and get it for them quietly without mentioning it.
Niah doesn’t know what is going to be done to him soon. ]
There is another library in the new excursion. Have you seen it?
It's okay. The bow tie is extremely cute. It's green? See! He disappears from Joonghyuk's view (for a moment unless Joonghyuk moves) when he bends down to one knee.
He beckons Niah quietly, shaking the bow tie. Will Niah let him...? It's gentlemanly.]
Yeah, I saw. It's pretty nice. Still pissed I can't bring anything back to my room. Wondering if I could just ask one of the staff for some, but they'd probably force me to trade my soul for it.
[ Niah will allow cause he’s just thinking this is more fluffing for his starry fur. ]
One provided Niah rawhide to chew on, so it’s possible. [ … ] But I prefer not owing them anything, even if I think we should be entitled to luxuries as guests.
[ Just the sound of him moving through the hangers on the rack. ]
[Niah is the smartest person in this room right now. Jason will fasten the fancy green bow tie around Niah's neck. Simple, but fashionable. Hehe. He ruffles the sides of Niah's head behind the ears, but the smirk on his face very slowly fades away.
He pats Niah before standing back up again with the jacket he had before.]
[Nooooooo. IT LOOKS SO GOOD. Listen, he could have put Niah in a clown ruffle collar, be happy with this. He gives Niah a thumbs-up? Quietly, to Niah:] What? You want a galaxy print one? [To match the fur.......
He bends down to pick up the dramatically released jacket. He puts it back up nicely like it should go? Is Jason Todd meticulously clean.......? Who knows.]
There are some things in play that aren't in the contract.
[Niah wants to be a free boy without any fancy frills. Same hat.
Jason rubs the top of Niah’s head, then squats down again so he can take the collar off.] You look fine just like you are, okay? [The starry fur.]
Probably will. But if I tell you don’t fucking possess me when you ask, no means no, contract or not. This undefined stir up trouble shit is making me mad.
[ Why is Jason coming back down? When Niah notices it's to take back what he gave him, he struggles! No. This is his now. You gave it to him, so it is his.
Joonghyuk doesn't say anything, pensive, but then he coughs and a bunch of petals (red and metallic) come out. He pretends that didn't happen. ]
Alright, alright. It's yours. [DAMN. He will let Niah keep the bow tie collar. Crazy wolf-dog. Just like the owner. He situates the collar again and stands up.] You good?
[He heard Joonghyuk coughing, but he doesn't, like, look in that direction actually.
There is so much here to show how Joonghyuk really feels. Wow.]

I have no interest in nightclubs. [ DOES HE LOOK LIKE HE WANTS TO PARTY? ] I'll join you two.
no subject
I'm wondering if you have an interest in literally anything actually. But okay.
[He reaches out to playfully give Niah's head a lil push as he turns to start. He nods across from them to the closet.]
Wanna look around in there?

If you're curious, you could ask.
[ Stupid. Niah is ready! And Joonghyuk looks over to the closet. ]
We can.

What kind of stories?
no subject
Yeah, yeah.
[Hmmmmmmmm. He browses the pet things……… No reason. Just looking.
Takes a little bow tie off.]
Anything really. But I like classics. Great Gatsby. 1984. Animal Farm. Ulysses. Little Women. Brave New World. Things like that.

Did you talk to Sieghart?
no subject
The black denim jacket that was in his mouth unceremoniously and comically falls out of his mouth. He doesn’t break eye contact with Jason… ]
I didn’t, but I heard his claim from others.
