@SnxwHeart ⠀⠀⠀“i am an ace when it comes to knives.” his tone was nothing whimsy, just composed, but one couldn't deny that there was a hint of conceit in it. he finally had something to work on. Taekjoo took the knife and began to cut the meat as you instructed, …
@anviscera ⠀⠀⠀“what do you mean you forgot.” he could handle the dust, sure, but good lord it seemed like he was dealing with someone quite ridiculous. “you can clean, can't you?”
@DevilSanction god dammit. he couldn't deny that you reminded him to someone—cold and unmerciful; a calamity blessed with life.
his internal alarm blared. a human’s instinct would say: run.
⠀⠀⠀“what do you do.”
but, he didn't. not now. not when he’s dominated by fear created by the mind.
⠀⠀⠀“well, i don't know. i usually just take americano and then continue with my day.” his eyes squinted on the list of the coffee he could order. “can you recommend me something else? any strong one will do.” @BARISTOWL.
⠀⠀⠀“listen, i'm no mind reader or anything, but you look like having the thought of [ kill! let's kill this guy! ]” his words were then followed with a dart of gaze to the man who was caught stealing his wallet. “except i’m just reading it wrong. which, i hope, i do.” @6I6364.
⠀⠀⠀“ada orang yang bilang aku gagal sebagai seorang pelatih. katanya karena aku kurang sabaran…?” deru napasnya gusar; kedua lengan dilipat angkuh. “padahal mereka aja yang otaknya terlalu tumpul, masa’ menembakkan peluru aja gak bisa.” @UNNCHAlNED.
⠀⠀⠀“banyak orang yang masih menganggap perempuan itu lemah—yang, yeah, aku bisa paham, tapi bisa bantu aku menyangkal pemikiran mereka?”
di depan mereka sudah ada semangkuk bibimbap berukuran jumbo; porsi cukup untuk 3 pria dewasa.
⠀⠀⠀“ini, coba habiskan.” @semakperdu.
⠀⠀⠀“so, what do you say? road trip, you and me.”
he quirked an eyebrow, casually waiting for your answer while his hand lazily slid around the steering wheel.
⠀⠀⠀“we can explore different restaurants, or whatever, really. unless you have a place in mind?” @forestwoodsx.
@SnxwHeart busy with the mind, perhaps. but for current agenda? “no, not really.”
and then a bite on his lower lip, followed with a brief silence—being useless is never one he enjoyed the most.
⠀⠀⠀“say, is there anything i can help? like, chopping something, maybe?”
@Paschelie ⠀⠀⠀“ugh—” a groan, and then a cough; his life was hanging on a thin thread by the moment he slowly, yet desperately caught consciousness to stay alive. the view inside his eyes was hazy with some black dots, so now he squinted—trying to see who's his savior.
⠀⠀⠀“who—”
@SnxwHeart ⠀⠀⠀“right. right. sorry … about that.” a sheepish response; when he's not in the war of guns, he felt entirely human. “i'm Taekjoo, by the way. hope we can get along well.”
the hospitality from someone whom he just met dragged him into confusion—albeit slightly, leaving a big room of vigilance.
⠀⠀⠀“oh. thanks.” he took the gift, yet fingers silently kneaded against the knits. …
@SnxwHeart now that he felt nothing but the pliant squeeze of the knit, alongside the tender surface of the thread, his eyes began to gradually soften. right. you're correct. there's nothing absurd such as a hard surface that could click by a touch and explode the entirety of his future. …
