[sterilize]

i want to scope out the club first before anything else
to see if it'll work
do you want to come with? just to look

[leavening]

oh

yeah definitely.

[he's not going to send her down there alone, that's for sure.]

[sterilize]

tonight? if you're not busy

( though actually — )

why were you in otherworld the first time?

[leavening]

i'm not busy.

[oh right uh]

this is going to sound insane but

there was a party to bring people back to life after a twisted game of mafia.

[Wait, he probably shouldn't leave it there, frantically typing to add:]

i didn't die. i just wanted see if they could really bring people back.

[sterilize]

did you get hurt

( who does eunyu have to attack!!!!!! )

[leavening]

no, i was ok. so was eunhyuk.

[sterilize]

ok. good.

did you meet hao in otherworld?

[leavening]

no, we met during the game.

i fought him.

it was stupid.

[sterilize]

does he treat you right? or do i need to take an eye out

[leavening]

[This is a hard question to answer because Hao is.....Hao.]

i guess so.

hao is annoying, but he's not really malicious.

you'll see what i mean if you talk to him.

[sterilize]

should i? talk to him

[leavening]

yeah, if you want to.

[sterilize]

( tch!!! )

you're really not even gonna ask if i'm jealous?

[leavening]

[Oh

oh]

wait what

are you jealous?

[sterilize]

no

[leavening]

[????]

ok



i'm confused.

[sterilize]

you’re saying it didn’t even cross your mind i might be jealous seeing you jerk off some guy
?

[leavening]

[Well this is embarrassing.]

when you mentioned him in the chapel i wondered

but then it didn't seem to matter that much.

[and maybe on some level he just doesn't see himself as someone worth feeling jealousy over. His self-worth issues are a work in progress.]

i guess i figured if you were mad you would have told me.

[she's very good at letting people know when she's mad.]

[sterilize]

( hyunsu is too much like a kicked puppy to actually scold. if he was the monster right now, it’d be much easier )

i don’t get mad over stupid stuff
you should get whatever you want whenever you want it. however you want it
if that’s hao, it’s cool

[leavening]

ok

my relationship with hao isn't like what i have with you, though.

it doesn't feel the same.

[he feels like she should know this. that there's trust with her that he doesn't have with hao.

also hao is annoying and she isn't.]

[sterilize]

i’m glad i get any part of you
or whatever

i just didn’t want you to sweat it if you were worried
but i guess maybe you weren’t

( there is room for 1 overthinker in this relationship )

[leavening]

[well he is now!! a little bit. though he does believe her when she says she's not mad. he just feels like maybe he was thoughtless, so he'll have to try to do better in the future.]

ok.

i feel the same way, you know.

[sterilize]

which part?

[leavening]

all of it.

i want you to be happy.

[sterilize]

( pessimistically, she thinks about eunhyuk. childishly, she decides to refuse happiness until he wants her again.

but, heroically, she decides that isn’t really hyunsu’s problem. it’s hers. she’ll work it out, just like she did with hyunsu. )

i’m getting there
