i got a solid four hours. it was nice.
[ what's the cost of freedom? for june, it's death - throats cut, shots fired, bombed detonated. death to so many, each life buying him an hour here, a day there, a massacre gaining him freedom for a good week before gloriana calls him back into her cold embrace.
living as a weapon for a woman who's long lost touch with her humanity was never meant to be easy, but june feels like it's been a particularly steep climb for him. it can't be anything but that, with the special attention she gives him every time.
don't stray too far from the coop, junebug, he's reminded every time he takes his leave.
don't fall in love where we can't see. ]
what about you, though? have you been resting?

[ Luuk isn't really one to believe in luck, and even odds and probabilities are a bit different. Maybe it's more correct to say he doesn't believe in things like fate, good or bad luck, even if he does believe in chance.
Life is really what you make it, and in this case he's made it prioritizing the people around him for once in his shady little life.
He smiles at the comment, but the fleeting thought "I hope you can continue to be" does pass through his head, even if he doesn't voice it out loud.
Some things are better kept inside as you drive your friend away from his self-inflicted disasters. ]

i want everyone to know where you've been

[ four hours doesn't sound like much, but ki-tae knows how rare it is. it makes him worry at the soft flesh of the inside of his cheek, tap his finger against the side of his phone. it doesn't do anything to alleviate any of the concern, though, if only because he knows lulls usually lead to incidents — that is, after all, how life always seems to go. ]
i've been napping, so i've been okay.
[ the less rest he gets, the better. once exhaustion catches up, it hits him hard enough that none of the nightmares matter anymore. it's why he spends so much time in the store, sitting on the floor organizing the books while the rest of the neighborhood sleeps.
it isn't so bad when june is there, but that's an entirely different level of codependency ki-tae doesn't want to reach for. ]

even if they're in spots that you wouldn't show anyone else?
You not being able to promise shit like that is dramatic!
I'm at my apartment. Isn't it going to be kind of a pain to backtrack like that?

Haha...
Yeah, I've heard that before.
Heard that too.

No, just...
Usually people say things like that as an insult.
[ Hesitating before answering honestly. ]
I've literally never done anything with another person before you.
Like sex, or sex related things, or even kissing.
No jokes about it, please.
I already know I'm a loser.

it's a lot to ask of me, i don't know what you were expecting.
we're going to get you dressed at the store, i don't mind it.

so you're always a scratchy weirdo when you drink?
for what it's worth, i don't think you're a loser.
i call you that just because it's fun to see how you act about it.
if you haven't had sex before me
i mean i guess what i wanted to ask is
does it bother you that it's me?

if i get a chance to, i will.
i like being marked.
especially if it's by you.

For you to not threaten me with death!
You're really buying me new things? I'm not just borrowing yours?
You're really buying me new things? I'm not just borrowing yours?
Yeah, well you're one of the only ones that says it for that reason.
No! I mean, not because of you specifically or anything.
It's kind of weird to think about the fact that my first time was with a guy, but not because of the specific guy or anything.
It's kind of tripping me up, man.
I don't know how to feel about ME after that kind of thing.
You know?
