Are you hurting the one you love?

Just some silly gay idiots doing silly gay idiot things.

[That smile is enough of a distraction. It's a rare expression on Yoo Joonghyk, who spent 3000 chapters making himself miserable, even if somehow he did find moments of happiness throughout the story. It's not the first time Kim Dokja has seen a smile from him at all, but there's something genuine with this one he's not sure what to do with.

And it's his attempt at analyzing it that distracts him enough that he doesn't realize he's being moved until his back hits the wall.

He stares up at him. He is fully out of his element, and trying not to freak out.

He probably would, if that kiss hadn't shut off his brain entirely. His mind just goes blank as he tries to process the sensation of the other man's lips on his, their bodies now pressed together, the muscles of the man in front of him somehow feeling more solid right now than the rock wall behind him. His own hand, he realizes, is now on Yoo Joonghyk's shoulder.

It takes several long moments before he thinks to return some pressure into the kiss. It's not much - he really has no confidence - but it's unmistakably there. He's up on tiptoe, slightly, leaning into him, for once not thinking about anything other than how good it feels.

Like he's been waiting all his life just for this.]

I -- You didn't give me time to prepare!

[He sputters, embarrassed, and trying not to be disappointed that the kiss has ended. He wishes he had a way to look up proper kissing techniques, or a skill he could buy, or -- He knows it's ridiculous, but he also knew he'd be no good at it.

Immediately several indirect messages appear with pointers for how to improve, or what he should do next. Most of them don't even make sense, and just make his embarrassment worse.]


Shut up!

[It's at the constellations, not at Yoo Joonghyk, though Yoo Joonghyk deserves to hear it, too.]

I did tell you I have no experience. You don't get to be disappointed.

[He knows they can't stay here, but now he wants to. He doesn't want to leave it like this. Maybe he'll have to find a different way to impress, one that has nothing to do with kissing.]

[This is getting worse by the second. The indirect messages are now a combination of sympathetic and mocking, and he can't even be happy about the amount of coin being sponsored. He wants to sink into the ground. Maybe he could buy the Recluse's Cloak to hide from the constellations and his asshole of a soulmate.

He doesn't want to answer that question.]


So what if it is?

[No, they're not doing this. He's not letting Yoo Joonghyk get his entertainment from embarrassing him, no matter how profitable.]

Weren't we leaving?

[His reactions must be slowed from exhaustion. He'll blame it on that. He's still trying to process those looks Yoo Joonghyk is giving him, the tone of his voice when he makes that statement, when suddenly he's being grabbed again by those stupidly strong arms. When his own hands come up to steady himself by holding onto those biceps, they feel like rocks under his palms.

The sound that escapes him when Yoo Joonghyk presses his lips to his is one he'd like to forget ever happened. But immediately it's too intense, to the point where he can feel his own brain short-circuiting. He doesn't stand a chance at keeping up.

He flinches at the bite, lips parting as a reaction to the sudden pain. At the same time, it sends a jolt down his spine.

He's pretty sure a bite isn't supposed to feel good.]

[He can't stay quiet during the kiss. He tries to, but he can't focus on that while also trying to keep up, and in the end lets out little noises of frustration, of a pent-up neediness he didn't know he had in him. He's doing his best to kiss back, but it takes several moments for him to start to relax at all. Once he does, he starts to get better. Marginally.

He's still holding on when Yoo Joonghyuk ends the kiss. He'll have to break free of Kim Dokja's grip this time.]


You're--

[He's indignant. Angry. He's not sure what he is, except overwhelmed.]

Of course you are. Of course you're getting your own flag, because you can't let someone else be in charge.

[He really wants to punch the man.]

I could stop you. As the ruler of Chungmuro I could punish you.

I won't let you take my flag.

[He's firm on that, at least, and he has given some thought on what to do if Yoo Joonghyk tries. Mostly he's hoping he'll be able to activate the punishment fast enough.

Though right now his head isn't exactly clear enough to go against the regressor, as the bastard is reminding him.

He can't risk losing his flag.]


Just because you have more experience, doesn't mean you get to brag about being good, you bastard. [But he has a feeling his embarrassment at the taunt is easily visible on his face.] Now I really want to punish you, even though I was going to let you leave.

You think I don't have plans for dealing with obstinate regressors?

[Although that was before... this. He honestly isn't sure if he'll be able to fight back if Yoo Joonghyk uses kissing as a weapon. He really needs to figure out how to improve his own technique.

But Yoo Joonghyk is right, too. And if he wants to learn how to stand against the man, he should be the first to pull away here. He steps back, then winces as he accidentally steps into the tunnel wall. He'd forgotten it was right behind him.]


You can go. I don't need your help to get the throne.
