001 | DRUNK TEXT, UN: FUCK

_{[ This new car has it all. Denizens that don’t make sense, mysterious mines, spooky graveyards, ailment and sickness in the air, dead people, etc. One thing it does has though is alcohol and Jack, the bartender and alcoholic, has been consuming as much as he can handle. Those who have met him might have seen a chipper and flirtatious individual who tries to appear optimistic despite the circumstances, but unfortunately, some of his truer colors surface in this message. Truth of the matter, he’s scared and kind of lonely. ]}

perfect and kind ppl like u can really grind my gears with how nice u can b
it shouldn't matter

[ HHHHHHHHhhh this is why he should just assign his shadows to all the people he meets so he can just fast travel to them... ]

what shouldn't matter?

if i live or die on this train ??? if i figure out why my number is changing?? u would think higher numbers are better than lower ones, right?? it's like a score

mine went down

nothing makes sense
but i'm tired of worrying about it

i'm not successful back home either, jin
a lot of my friends died and it's my fault

_{[ Ah. ]}

not to mention my people won't ever find peace
and i've long given up trying to help

cause i'm a coward

[ The Jinwoo from once upon a time ago would have offered gentle, comforting words. He would have tried to be encouraging, empathize a little.

But it all feels so distant now. ]

what kind of a coward understands and acknowledges his failings?
you're almost sounding brave in your drunk texts, jack

nice try dickwad
but just admitting my faults doesn't make me a better person

cuz i don't want to fix them

maybe one day you'll find a reason to

oh SURE just one day i'm gonna b a better person
yeah
fucking aight mate you just keep on at it

with your GOODIE TWO SHOES
PERFECT FACE SELF
believing that a wankstain like me good ever correct my mistakes

remedy them
fix them

it's just
SO MUCH easier
to be numb

and that's why i wanna drink
that's why i wanna fuck
and pop every last pill on the planet while i can

_{[ He wants to be stronger and he wants to be better but he just lacks the faith in himself after all the shit he's been through. ]}

you're welcome to do whatever you want, jack
i just want to make sure you safely get back to where it is you've been staying

and why?
you get your rocks off by helping people like me?

other than like i'm horny on main and an alcoholic
NOT good traits btw!

sorry but as someone with hardly any friends, i'm afraid i don't have standards
you'll just have to live with the fact that i consider you a friend now

_{[ He has to read that text again to make sure that he's reading it correctly. Once again, Jinwoo has pushed through the walls that Jack so delicately has put up over the years in attempt to protect himself. The confession of friendship is from a human, no doubt, and this was someone Jack remembered he genuinely believed in him. That he could do what he wanted and live a free life.

And he's encouraging him again. Maybe being vulnerable to people was okay. It's hard after he's gotten attached to precious people in the past that he lost and he blames himself for it. Sure, he charms people, helps them, but he never expects them to actually care to pursue him in any capacity other than for sex which was just a mirage of acceptance and approval.

There's a slight flutter in his chest. Jack's number goes down again. ]}

you're stubborn
i'd punch that face of yours if it wasn't so pretty

_{[ A pause. ]}

come and get me out of here then

on my way

[ It doesn't take very long for Jinwoo to get to the tavern, but it still would have been nice to just swap places with a shadow the way he's used to. He makes a mental note to slip a soldier into Jack's shadow as he pushes open the tavern door.

It's the first time he's entered the establishment since drinking alchohol is just. A complete waste on him. But it's not like it's a difficult place to navigate and it's especially not hard to find Jack when he stands out the way he does.

And at least he doesn't have to scrape his new friend off the floor, now that he sees Jack seated at a table. ]

Hey. Ready to go?

_{[ There's not a response after that. Jinwoo should be proud to see a half empty glass of water perched up on the table along with Jack himself who has seemed to drag himself off of the ground at least. There is an attempt to sober up at least, but the room is still spinning.

Those slitted eyes bounce to the taller company— this kind hearted, handsome and caring person who for some godforsaken reason is aggressively trying to be his friend.

And is succeeding.

It only means that Jack has no other choice but to accept it and silently promise to also protect this person. After all, he doesn't want a repeat of losing people he allows himself to genuinely care for. Sure, he likes to be helpful and he has empathy for other people, but very rarely does it let it dissolve into something intimate. He's used to his care being one sided and prefers it that way, but now he's been cornered and he has no option but to become vulnerable. Again. ]}

Gwuhh.
I guess.

_{[ His tail idly slides back and forth from under the table, a gesture very similar to wagging. Both of his hands place on the table as he pushes his head off of it, feeling heavy. ]}

I really just made an ass of myself in pubic, didn't I? Wao. Feels good, though. And look! You still made it.

[ A Jack at the table is much better than a Jack on the ground! Jinwoo is used to being in the company of people who have drank Too Much for their own good, so this is almost comfortably familiar.

And now that he's in close proximity with the other man, Jinwoo's shadow elongates for just a brief moment before a part of it detaches and quickly slips its way into Jack's shadow. There, now he can keep better tabs. ]

I made it, [ he says in agreement. It was indeed a public spectacle, but Jinwoo doubts it'll stay at the forefront of people's thoughts with all the other shit going on in the car. ] Where have you been staying?

_{[ Yeah, sure. Go ahead and fuck with his shadow. He has no idea. He's on his feet and he teeters, but as expected, he just cozies up to Jinwoo like the last time he helped him. This time, though, he can appreciate the visuals of being so close to the taller (!!) and yet younger man. ]}

It doesn't matter where I'm staying, where are you staying?

_{[ After all of that? He's not going to want to be left alone. There's a small vibration behind his chest that Jinwoo can probably feel.. and probably hear. It's very akin to a cat's purr but a lot more throaty. ]}

There's no way in hell you came all the way over here just to take me and dump me off somewhere, right?

_{[ Surprisingly, it's not an innuendo or proposition. He just doesn't want to be left to his own devices right now. ]}

[ Jinwoo supports the extra weight against him easily. It really does look and feel like he's got a big cat on him, and he doesn't mind all that much as he tries to shift their positions to a more comfortable one, opting to loop an arm around Jack's waist. ]

My place?

[ He'd used the Happy Home app to grab himself a key to a small home in the village which had been incredibly convenient. But speaking of convenient, he'd also left one of his shadows there to guard the place. In that case, he wouldn't have to walk them very far...

He turns his head to face Jack with a serious look. ]

Whatever you do, don't move.

[ And his hold on Jack will tighten as the shadow under him begins to expand and creep up both their bodies. Welcome to the ease of fast traveling, Jack. ]

I'll do whatever you tell me to do, king.

_{[ Besides fucking cooperate in other ways like maybe loving himself a little. SIMP CITY UP IN HERE.. but he's like.. a little delayed reaction to what is happening and just exclaims while it's too late. ]}

Holy fuck.

_{[ SO THEY TELEPORT?? and if everything goes okay Jack is just going to be standing there all wide eyed. Not the weirdest shit that has happened to him, but he turns to Jinwoo. ]}

Also? Also. You can hold me like that anytime.

[ THEY DO INDEED TELEPORT and end up in the small home Jinwoo had been occupying. The shadows retreat from both their bodies and return to the ground.

The tavern will probably be a bit shocked to find a shadow soldier chilling where Jinwoo and Jack had just been but weirder things happen to this town so it's fine. ]

Let's get you to bed, Jack.

[ Jinwoo is getting very used to the things Jack says. Absolutely unfazed. ]

Oh.. oh. yes. Please get me to bed.

_{[ Help. It's probably better that Jinwoo just takes everything he says with such a cool poker face because half of the shit he says he is doing it for reactions only. If it's dark in this home, it doesn't matter. He can see in the dark so he's doing quite a good job dictating where to go.

Unfortunately for Jinwoo, he's slipping off his vest and letting it drop to the floor as he wanders away from the taller man. The black muscle shirt underneath follows rather lazily and soon he even stops to remove his boots (which look pretty high tech, ngl) and he really only gets to unzip his fly before he collapses halfway on the nearest bed with his legs hanging off of it. ]}

Wow, wow. This is such a nice place.

_{[ He's commenting like?? It's Jinwoo's house? Like permanent house. ]}

Saaaay, Jin. What do you think of your home? Back home.. guess if we're gonna be friends.. I should get to know you better.

[ And here's Jinwoo following after Jack while picking up the clothes off the floor. After having to take care of his little sister for four years on his own, he's gotten used to cleaning up other people's messes.

There's a single candle illuminating the bedroom so it's still rather dark, but Jinwoo moves just as easily in the dark as he does during the day, casting a glance in Jack's direction to make sure he's fine before setting the clothing aside on a nearby table.

He then leans against said table, arms crossed against his chest as he mulls over the question. ]

Well... I live in a small country called South Korea, in an apartment with my mom and younger sister. I like it there, but it's the only home I've ever known so it's not like I have anything to compare it to.

_{[ He just lies there, half on the bed, allowing Jinwoo to talk. It's nice to listen to someone else right now and it's also nice to be lying down again. He, too, has dips and curves of muscle on his body, a sheet of dark hair over his chest and down the center of his abdomen. The most notable features are the dragon tattoo along the left side of his rib cage or his pierced nipples. Where ever you're looking if you're a sinner. He's lying on his back so Jinwoo won't see the retractable spines he has, but they are there, flat against his back for now.

The lazy smile indicates, yes, he's enjoying this. Fantasizing about what seems like a quaint and simple life in South Korea. It's much different than the pollution, war, famine, mistreatment of others and oppression that's in his world.

It's nice to escape. To think about another life. ]}

Please tell me it stays like that for you. Just hanging out. Being big bro and son. Nothing interesting.
Right?
