[ Please don't think about your ex-wife, that's weird. To be fair, he's holding his face lightly, he's not actively squishing his cheeks! If anything, he seems curious to admire his features up close and being able to touch?
His thumb smooths over a brow. No furrowing. Relax, he's not gonna pinch your cheeks or anything. ]
Mmm... it really is better. [ That he says with a smile. Though his own brows knit together. Once again with the self-deprecation.... he doesn't think he deserves to be with any of them but he. Wants to. ]
[ Hello? Seolhwa was his sweetheart and he's still softer around her. Sorry. Well, Joonghyuk is more handsome than any of the purple prose Dokja has read or thought to himself. He is, after all, the real thing instead of written text on a page. ]
[ Understandable. Now he's got this nerd. It's true though, being real and seeing it for himself really does beat reading it. He blinks suddenly, looking sheepish now. ]
And you're reading me some more.
[ Oop. His gaze drops just a little, may or may not admire those features in full since when will he have an opportunity like this? Never again. This jawline, that nose, the thickness of those brows. His own long lashes flutter as he looks up at the side part of that wavy hair. But he doesn't want to poke the bear any further so he drops his hands. Even if it feels nice, it doesn't seem good for his heart? ]
Anyways, I'll be meeting with Alphinaud soon, so I should have some new information to share by tomorrow.
[ ... Actually here, all 100% of him, but it makes him sad because he's well aware that isn't the same Kim Dokja from his worldline. They're the same and they're not. It makes him think back to Secretive Plotter, envying bitterly because he didn't receive the ending he wanted. Instead, Plotter had to watch another version of him succeed.
In the end, Joonghyuk is no different, is he? He's coveting something that isn't his. He finds comfort to know that most likely this Dokja's wordline will suffer the same fate as his.
[ The corner of his eyes crinkle with mirth at that, lips still lifted in a smile. He misses the rest of his members, but he's used to being on his own for some time to deal with certain scenarios and situations. But, there's some relief at least here, Joonghyuk is as well.
He tilts his head at the inquiry before his hand raises to lightly pet that soft black hair. ]
Yeah, I'll likely stay in my room for tonight until I find some place else so, if you need me I'll be around.

You're having self-deprecating thoughts again.
[ Stop that. ]

What a disgusting feeling. ]
You'll be going?
