Favor hardly accounts for much in a game with murder and possession.

[ well, in chasma maybe but this game.. either way, it will hopefully be the last week? the final stretch... when he comes over, he will take his hand to guide him to sit with him. then he brings his hands to cup Joonghyuk's face, lips pursing. ]

Want some tea? [ your dark circles... "kdj you also have major dark circles" yjh, your dark circles.. ]

You didn't consider seeing you could negotiate with the Nightman?

[ Because... That could be a possibly? Not one that Joonghyuk likes, but he has also seen Dokja negotiate with Anna Croft whom he hated with all of his being. He lets Dokja hold his hand and guide him, eyes squinting when the other hand cups his face.

Tea? Does he really look that bad? ]

Nothing with caffeine in it.

So you think it might be worth trying to negotiate with him?

[ He has certainly made a lot of negotiations with people you least expect. Such as the Queen and King of the underworld.

his thumb gingerly touches the area of those dark circles. yeah. right here. ]

Non-caffeinated. Just to help you relax so you get some sleep.

[ He shrugs. It may be good distraction, but he isn't going to say that aloud.

The touch has him squint more. His dark circle are not as bad as Dokja's, ever. ]

You need to get some sleep. You look awful.

[ it's okay, cause kdj is thinking that now. a distraction.....

he makes a little face at that, almost a pout. ]

And let you out of my sight? [ it's a joke!!! it's said with a bit of a lighter tone but hm. maybe too true. he grumbles a little, gently papping his cheek. ] It's fine.
