Youngjo's House

@Hwanwoong J: I feel like there's no way for us to even go under his radar, no matter how hard we try.
-makes a face, scrunching my nose up a little-
If we could figure out how he does it so well, maybe that would make it easier...

BK: I won't disagree with you. He is quite on edge lately. He's been doing his best to keep it under control. He hasn't hurt anyone before but it has caused him some trouble before. He wouldn't want a repeat.
-tilts my head, expression still soft as I listen to you explain-
I'm always careful so, please, don't stress it too much, okay? I'm not an easy target.
-teases and gently pats your arm-
I do appreciate the concern though and I'll be sure to keep your words in mind. I've been with all of them, well, except one, for a long time now. Even they have told me before that I know them better than they know themselves, so hopefully that'll allow you to relax to some degree.

@Youngjo * just listens to the conversations which is mostly just background noise. slowly relaxing more in your hold, forgetting where we actually are.*

K: Only stressful for us.
* Shakes my head and lets out a soft breath*
l wish he wasn't so good at reading us honestly.

S: I know what my kind is capable of if they aren't in control, and he's... very tense. His energy is... unrestrained.
The hybrid is not a concern to me, He seems controlled and not a wolf scent... so not as concerning.
*frowns a little*
The other scares me. I could easily assert myself over the other two... but this... I've never thought I couldn't handle something I didn't know. I feel threatened but at the same time I want to be far from it. The only time I have felt similar was a meeting with a very old and powerful being. This scent is not the same... it's full of life.
Just be careful. I care for you, and I'd hate for one of my kind to harm you when you have no defense. (cause he doesn't know about Kwannie)

@Hwanwoong -notices Kwan leaving, too, tilting my head a little but just burying my face against the top of your head for now, tuning out everyone else pretty easily-

J: -nods in agreement, sighing softly-
That's his kind of fun. Harmless but stressful at the same time.
-chuckles quietly, glancing over once he's gotten up, my curiosity clearly piqued-

BK: -raises a brow as I follow your lead, hoping everything is okay before nodding slowly-
I am aware, yes. Those with unique scents seem to still be figuring themselves out for the most part.
-smiles warmly at you and even chuckles softly-
Do their scents concern you? You seem... mostly worried, I'd say. Is it my safety that you're worried about?
Hwanwoong [A] 1 year ago
@Youngjo *smiles happily and leans against you once I'm finished eating, just enjoying being close.
Watches as Kwannie leaves before closing my eyes and relaxing*

K: *chuckles a little.*
It does doesn't it...
If he does, I hope it's only short.
But he might enjoy watching us struggle for a while

S: *working the kitchen. Comes to meet you when they let me know you're there, bringing you into the back and making sure we aren't going to be listened in on*
I'm sure you know... you're always aware... but you have... someone similar to me in your group. And a hybrid... and something else... I cannot pinpoint, but the scent is... strange
Youngjo [A] 1 year ago
@Hwanwoong -smiles and pecks your forehead, finishing off my drink and just relaxing, playing with your fingers as I lace my fingers with yours, holding your hand to my chest and just feeling comforted by doing so-

J: Yeah, that sounds most like him…
-pauses and furrows my brows, letting out a soft sigh-
I hope he doesn’t pretend just to mess with us because that feels like something he’d do, too.

BK: -glances around the table and excuses myself to go find my friend to see if everything is okay with him before we leave-
Hwanwoong [A] 1 year ago
@Youngjo *smiles softly and nods slightly*
I promise. I am not going to give up on you. Nothing could make me even want to leave.
*leans in to give you a quick kiss as well, trying to ease whatever has you so worried*

K: hmm...
*nods a little and takes a moment to eat some before letting out another noise*
I still don't think he will hurt us.
He might just tell us to keep our mouths shut...
Youngjo [A] 1 year ago
@Hwanwoong Good to know, baby.
-sneaks a kiss and then just looks at you for a moment-
I won’t give up on. Please, don’t give up on me.
-thinks for a moment about what I’ll tell you, really hoping that doesn’t make you run, just finding and holding on tightly to your hand, eating some more where I can-

J: He doesn’t seem like the type that would hurt someone on purpose but… I have begun to question a few things now.
-laughs quietly, realizing my food is practically gone already, not having realized how fast I’d been eating-
Hwanwoong [A] 1 year ago
@Youngjo I know what that's like. I won't back down either, Unless I really should. Someone needs to convince me of it though.
* smiles happily and nods again.*
Which means I wont give upon you

K: I mean, I am happy to take this one. But I'd be happy to take the support.
* lets out a breath*
I'm kind of scared, but I don't think he will really hurt me.
Youngjo [A] 1 year ago
@Hwanwoong Good, baby. Thank you. That’s all I’m asking.
-laughs and shakes my head-
I wouldn’t expect you to just back down to be honest. I wouldn’t recommend it either. He’s really nice, always has been, but he does become someone different when he wants something.

J: That’s true…
-hums lowly and smiles at you-
Well, I’ll be with you. I won’t have you asking by yourself. We’re both curious so we can both ask. Besides, he might kick my but I can put up a fight if you get in trouble somehow.
Hwanwoong [A] 1 year ago
@Youngjo *smiles a little and nods*
How can I saw I won't after you tell me that? I promise I will tell you if anything happens.
*chuckles softly*
But I will also attempt to handle it myself... to a degree. I wont be a push over that just goes crying to you when something happens.

K: *chuckles a little at your words and nods slightly*
I mean... It's a little late to hope that.
*lets out a breath*
I will talk to him, considering I brought all this up...
Youngjo [A] 1 year ago
@Hwanwoong -leans into your touch and smiles softly-
You wouldn't be getting between my friendships and I don't believe you want to either.
-holds your hand to my cheek-
But it would make me very happy if you tell me about anything like that happening.
-pecks your palm and then brushes my fingers over your hand-

J: You say that...
-chuckles quietly and shakes my head a few times, glancing over at him and making eye contact with him, returning the smile that he gives me-
Let's hope that he hasn't heard us. Or that he can't read minds.
Hwanwoong [A] 1 year ago
@Youngjo *glances over at him as well before looking back at you and smiling*
Ok... I got it.
*smiles a little more and pats your cheek gently*
Now I know... I can prepare myself a little. I'm not here to get between your friendships... My battles will be fought with words... If things are happening I will tell you, I will talk to him... We will make it work

K: *looks at you and smiles a little*
Relax, we are smart enough not to say anything so we wont die... not tonight.
*chuckles and chances another glance*
I am trying to keep an eye out for a sign from him... I was testing if he could hear us...
Youngjo [A] 1 year ago
@Hwanwoong -shakes my head and smiles warmly at you-
It wasn't exactly like that. I can say that it wasn't entirely him. Things were already getting in the way.
-sighs softly-
He went away for a couple of years for schooling and stayed with his parents. We had a mutual breakup a little after he left because it was just too much with him trying to focus on school and me just...existing.
-chuckles dryly and shrugs-
I met Wheein and I brought her into the group. Things happened with her family and her brother and it was stressing her out. When Jackson came back, he couldn't help himself. He was giving her the looks like he did you and he would write things to me, poems and songs... She had enough on her plate and that was the final straw. I didn't find that out though until after she broke up with me and I had gotten with him again. When I found out, I broke up with him. I think it had kind of made him clingier than before because he was worried we wouldn't be friends anymore but...
-looks over at him and then looks down and sighs-
I don't think he'd want to chance us not being friends anymore.

J: -shivers and sighs, poking at my empty plate-
At least if I die tonight or someday soon, I had a good meal.
-looks over at you and huffs-
You're going to get us caught because you keep looking over-
Hwanwoong [A] 1 year ago
@Youngjo He made you and your other ex break up...
*frowns a little*
You think he wont do that again?

K: *keeps glancing over at Kwan as discreetly as possible*
It is scary isnt it...
Somehow, feeding us to the dogs doesnt feel very Kwannie... It's more like... we'd just disappear.
At least if he was afraid that we'd talk or whatever... Maybe he just has a threat or a way to make sure we dont tell anyone...
He has enough on us...
Youngjo [A] 1 year ago
@Hwanwoong -tilts my head and then nods slowly-
Oh... I guess I hadn't told you yet. I keep thinking that I told you already.
-smiles sheepishly-
I have more than one ex at this table. It ended because of something neither of had control of but... he'd found way to make it a lot more difficult and end a lot sooner...

J: The more we talk about this, the scarier he seems. You don't think he's like some serial killer or something, do you? If he's a kingpin or related to one, he's not going to do like in the movies and feed us to some dogs or something, right?
-forces myself not to look over again, knowing I'll make eye contact if I try again-
Maybe he just wants us to ask? I'm scared now either way.
Hwanwoong [A] 1 year ago
@Youngjo of what happened?
* looks up at you, tilting my head slightly curious. *
Is this a talk later thing? did I forget a story?

K: he's known you so much longer...
he's known me long enough to know how to take me out without anyone knowing.
* sighs a little*
I've always been a little intimidated by him, but now I'm actually kind of scared.
* glances over *
If he knows... he should give us a sign so we can know if it's something we are allowed to ask, or if it's something we even want to know.
Youngjo [A] 1 year ago
@Hwanwoong He is a pretty thick guy but...
-chuckles and looks at you again, resting a hand on top of your head-
He wouldn't want a repeat of what happened so that alone would be enough to scare him off. Besides, I'm sure you could give him a run for his money.

J: He's just... always got things handled. I bet I'd be that calm all the time if I kept things in order the way he does.
-sighs as well-
We aren't... Even if he didn't notice, somebody else easily could.
That... That's a terrifying thought, especially with how long I've known him. I don't want to imagine him just waiting for the right time to strike.
-glances over before looking down at my plate again-
Let's just hope not but I wouldn't be surprised if he did know.
Hwanwoong [A] 1 year ago
@Youngjo I'm really hoping as well. I will fight if I need to but... His arms are like three times the size of mine.
* glances over again *
If it's a physical fight between us... I love you younggie... but I think he wins. I think you're his.
* Chuckles a little knowing thereis no way I'd give in that easily, even if it was physical*

K: Why is he so calm all the time...
And no, I have a feeling We would get caught. neither of us are the stealthy type.
or you know... small and unnoticeable.
* sighs *
We will just have to ask him. And hope he's not planning our murders or something.
You don't think he knows what we are discussing right?
Youngjo [A] 1 year ago
@Hwanwoong -laughs before looking over and nodding-
He is. Although, I don't think... Or at least I'm hoping that you don't get too much trouble out of him.
-rubs my nape and sighs-
I'm really hoping you don't have to deal with much from him...

J: We can try. Do you think we'll be able to listen to them without getting caught though?
-glances down, realizing I've apparently eaten almost all of my food already and frowning-
That's true... Just asking out of curiosity... and mild concern.
-watches him come back and sit down, eating and interacting as though he never really left the table-
Hwanwoong [A] 1 year ago
@Youngjo I've already seen you stand up for me. Next time your ex is the problem Ok? I don't want any more run-ins with my ex.
* smiles happily*
Then I can stand up for you. Though...
* Thinks for a moment before looking at Jackson then back to you *
He's the ex right?

K: we will trap him after dinner and have a talk, do you think we'd be able to eavesdrop on this talk the chef wants to have?
I assume, if they are gang related they'd not make that easy...
* hums a little*
I guess we just ask before he takes everyone home. I don't really want to ask with Hiyyih there, She'd think it was awesome, or that we were being insulting.
Youngjo [A] 1 year ago
@Hwanwoong Oh? You'll plow through them all for me, huh?
-chuckles and grins widely, tilting my head a little to shake off a feeling-
Same for me though. I wouldn't let anyone hurt you. They'd have to go through me first to try and insult you or try to hurt you.

J: -watches him go off and then chuckles, looking at you-
He's a busy guy, as always. I really don't think he'd be upset if we ask. I feel like he's gotten asked things like that a lot. It's just the air he has. Not scary but just, you know.. like in charge.
-eats some more and hums softly-
Now, you have me curious. We're going to have to get some sort of answer...
Hwanwoong [A] 1 year ago
@Youngjo I don't think an uproar over food is really my style, about the only uproar you'll get from me is if someone insults you. no one insults you and gets away with it. I will beat them all down.
* smiles having a little more *

K: looks over as he gets a call before shaking my head. *
The calls too... He's always getting calls.
* sighs a little taking a moment to eat some more before looking back at you*
You don't suppose it's his family that got those connections? it still explains everything, and means he's not a criminal mastermind, just his family.
Do you think head hate us asking?
Youngjo [A] 1 year ago
@Hwanwoong Unless you'd be planning to start an uproar about how you feel about the food, I don't think it'll be that bad if it's something you don't really like.
-smiles and pecks your cheek before eating some more, just happy that you're eating some-

J: I hadn't thought about it before. He's always been like this. He doesn't seem like he's very social either. Like he just goes somewhere and everyone knows who he is already, and he knows who they are.
-stares down at my plate as I think back to when I first met him for a moment before chuckling-
It does. I remember meeting his brother a few times but it's been so long. I don't really know about his family. He never really talks about them but I've never seen him get upset or angry if someone mentions his family either.

BK: -nods once as well and then looks around the table, smiling to myself as it seems everyone's enjoying their food, checking my phone and then quietly dismissing myself to go handle the phone call-
Hwanwoong [A] 1 year ago
@Youngjo I didn't say I wouldn't. I just wanted you to try it first.
it's another silly thing, being afraid I wont like it.
I don't want to be insulting, or ungrateful.
* shrugs it off before getting a small bit to try, nodding a little.*
It's not bad.

K: I admit, I'm not the most social person, but I don't know how he has so many people.
* shakes my head, having a mouthful of food before shrugging *
It explains his connections, his money, his attitude, the way people treat him.
Totally some Kingpin.

S: * glances to everyone before nodding slightly *
Good to know.
* smiles a little and gives you a nod *
see you in a bit then.
Youngjo [A] 1 year ago
@Hwanwoong When you say things like that, it's no wonder that I want to cook for you even more.
-sighs but smiles and then nods, eating some and humming happily-
It's really good. Are you sure you don't want to try at least a little? I don't want you to miss out.

J: -enjoys the food, my expression very much showing that I am, and glances over at Kwan-
You know... You're right. I don't think any of us would be surprised if he did turn out to be a kingpin or at least friends with people in some high but sketchy kind of places.
-shakes my head-
He does know a lot of people. I know we don't see him all the time but I do kind of wonder how he has so much time to see all of these people and where he meets them.

BK: -looks over at you and nods, flashing you a bright smile-
I'm sure it's all amazing. They clearly think so already.
-chuckles and nods-
Thank you again.
-looks at you with a small hint of concern but manages to mask it just as quickly-
I will.
-smiles at you and then starts eating what I've ordered-
Hwanwoong [A] 1 year ago
@Youngjo It does smell good... but when you live on cup ramen anything smells good.
* laughs a little *
You try it. Tell me if it's good.

K: * hums a little and nods slightly looking around. *
I swear he always seems to know someone. Everywhere we go, he knows someone.
* looks back at you *
You don't think he's the mafia or something ?
* Chuckles a little *
That a funny thought. But, kind of scary that I wouldn't be surprised if he was connected to a gang or something.
He screams kingpin... and he knows everyone, and has so much money.

B: * laughs and nods *
It does seem rather good...
* hums a little before starting to eat. *

S: * comes over once you all have your food*
Got everything?
* looks at Kwan *
Worked on you tables myself. So if anything is wrong make sure to tell me.
* Nods a little and lowers my voice*
come see me before you leave. I want to talk to you about something.
Youngjo [A] 1 year ago
@Hwanwoong -sits up as well and laughs, gently nudging your temple with my nose-
But it smells really good, doesn't it?
-sips my drink before ogling the food-
Do you want to try some first?

J: -smiles and then furrows my brows-
I think I've smel---
-clears my throat and shakes my head a little-
I remember Kwannie mentioning him but this is the first time I remember meeting him.
-mumbles a bit to myself-
And that's a smell I would recognize...

W: -gives you a gentle smile of understanding and nods-
Let's eat and enjoy then.
-smiles brighter and looks at the food as it's placed down-
First night and this place already has me sold.
-can't help myself and starts eating my food almost immediately-
Hwanwoong [A] 1 year ago
@Youngjo * chuckles softly and shakes my head *
Imediately paying attention when you smell food
such a kitten
* pats your shoulder before sitting up properly so that we can eat easier.*

K: I will keep that in mind.
* smiles and looks over at the food as well *
It smells good. Do you know this guy that Kwannie knows?

B: How can I not feel bad?
* sighs a little and shakes my head*
He's had to look after me for so long, and I really don't make it easy.
* keeps my head down for a moment *
I'll tell you guys about it later if you want.
* looks back up, smiling like normal.*
Let's just have fun for now, ok? I want to just have fun with everyone. and I don't want Kai to know that I know.
* Nods a little and smiles*
Thanks Wheein, look at this amazing food...
Youngjo [A] 1 year ago
@Hwanwoong -has a couple of flashbacks from when I really couldn't control it in public before and all the trouble that it had gotten me into, holding onto you a little tighter but smiling at your words-
You're adorable, baby. As long as my boyfriend likes my sounds, I don't need to worry too much.
-chuckles and looks up as the food finally comes, my mouth watering at the aroma-

J: -chuckles, nodding in agreement-
You might. If it helps, I can promise I won't let you chicken out. We'll get you all nice and strong and I'll do my best not to scare you off.
-looks over at the smell of the food, getting distracted for a moment-

W: Huh. That's interesting...
-furrows my brows, looking at you with concern and gently rubbing your arm-
Why would you feel bad? You haven't done anything.
-shakes my head and smiles brightly again-
Of course, I do, Hiyyih. I'm really glad that you and your brother joined us.
Hwanwoong [A] 1 year ago
@Youngjo You probably should try to limit purring in public... people might think things...
*frowns a little*
I'd fight them if they said anything, but you know, I want my cute kitty to continue building his fame, not suddenly be called a freak or something.
Save the purring for me. My personal little purring kitty.

K: I will... message you tomorrow.
*laughs a little and shakes my head*
No... I should organise it now, or I will chicken out of it...

B: Nope, He's never told me anything he likes doing. Well, except that he likes going to conventions with me, and then with alll you guys when we met you guys...
I dont know if he knows how to like his own things honestly...
*frowns a little and sighs*
Maybe I should go away for longer, go with the show when they tour the world or something, I'll miss you guys but it gives him time to get his own hobbies...
*sighs a little*
Now I feel bad.
*instantly brightens again and shakes my head*
I doubt its impossible, but I will keep that in mind. I'm glad you like me either way.
