[ Jae can't help but huff out a laugh at the first part. ]

Perhaps not the minutiae of every aspect of life, those things we do have at least some basic understanding of, after all.

[ It comes with a lot of demons being former humans, and sharing that knowledge with others. Never mind that there needed to be some base knowledge of human day-to-day life in order for some of their brethren to be able to meet any sort of quotas for corrupting and converting souls.

The proposition, however ... admittedly has him intrigued, a small smirk appearing on his face while he watches her. ]


Oh? And how do you propose we do that?

[Eun pushes herself up from the couch, the corner of her mouth tugged up at one side as she stands long enough to cross the distance. She plucks Jae's glass from atop its coaster and draws it up to her mouth to take a sip as well.]

I think that since my attempts to figure out how to reverse what bound us together haven't really been bearing any fruit...I'll need to bring the leader of my coven in on what's happened before too long. If that's the case, there's no reason to keep you cooped up here so. So, I may as well...take you out with me for a day. Let you get fresh air from somewhere that isn't an open window, stretch your legs.

[She sets the glass down again and comes to stand, half sitting on the arm of the couch as she watches Jae curiously, wondering what his reaction might be.]

Unless you think it would be better for us to hole up together here for the day to keep you occupied.

[ For some reason, Jae's metaphorical hackles raise when Eun mentions bringing in her coven leader to help with their predicament, though he's ... really not sure why.

His eyes widen a little once she mentions the actual proposition, and he freezes as he's about to pick up his drink again. ]


No! ... No. I don't think that staying here would be all that interesting. I've already read through most of your library at this point, and I doubt I'd be too helpful in a majority of your magic.

So I'm more than okay with potentially going outside.

[It's hard not to laugh a little in response to his reaction, finding his enthusiasm rather endearing and entirely understandable.]

I might take offense that my company isn't enough to keep you entertained if I didn't know that you're probably going insane staying in here all day, every day.

[The only thing they could do inside together would likely involve meals and endless bouts of board times, internet surfing, and TV binge-watching...

Normally, for Eun, if she was spending all day inside with someone it would involve only leaving her bed to enjoy other surfaces of her apartment, but with a permanent house-guest her personal life has taken a bit of a hit. Alas.]


How do you feel about motorcycles?
Woo Jaehyuk | James Woo: But do you need me anyway?[personal profile] arbitratour on July 8th, 2021 09:56 pm (UTC)
I didn't want to make any assumptions.

[ Jae gives a small smile that he hides behind another sip. Being inside was ... rough, he'd admit. He's a bit surprised when she mentions the motorcycle, and he lets out a contemplative hum. ]

I should be okay with riding on one, if that's what you're getting at.

[Having just gotten home, Eun's not in the mood to head out right that moment, especially not with both of them imbibing alcohol. Oh sure, she's not had more than a sip or two, but the prospect of more appeals to her.]

Tomorrow then, in the morning, we'll make a day of it.

[Rather than beg for him to offer his glass again, Eun pushes herself to her feet, crosses the short distance between them, and settles on one of his legs so she can pluck the glass from his hand herself.

They're not beings who get close this way, or cozy, but if he's going to be riding behind her on a motorcycle there's no reason to not get him used to being close to her now. And to see how he'll behave given the opportunity. Her gaze is steady on his as she takes a sip from his glass, slow and lingering.]
Woo Jaehyuk | James Woo: I have control; I'm fine[personal profile] arbitratour on December 25th, 2021 04:59 pm (UTC)
Okay.

[ He raises his eyebrows a little once Eun crosses over to sit on his lap, but he's calm, and if anything, he seems comfortable with her closeness. So comfortable, in fact, that he slides a hand up to gently touch her. Gauging her interest, even as she brazenly takes his glass again to sip from it. ]

[Eun holds his gaze as she feels his hand slip up to touch her. She shifts her weight slightly on his knee, but otherwise makes no move. Certainly she doesn't pull away. Briefly, her eyes dip down to look at where his hand has settled, but it only draws a little smile to the corner of her mouth. She tips his glass back, downing the rest of his drink in one swallow, and sets the glass aside on its coaster.

Returning her attention to Jae, she lifts a brow.]


Do you want me to refill it?

[There's more to that question in the silence. Or would you like something else?]
Woo Jaehyuk | James Woo: Don’t try to leave me[personal profile] arbitratour on January 21st, 2023 06:05 pm (UTC)
No, I think - [ He pauses, tongue poking out a little as he licks his lips. He'd be blind to not understand the underlying message, and in other circumstances he would be a bit more guarded about his wants. But here and now, with everything that has happened so far tonight...

Perhaps he can indulge a bit. ]


I think I have all I need right here. [ He reaches up to gently pull Eun's head down so he can claim her lips, at first gentle, probing. Gauging to see if this is what she truly was asking for. ]

[Is it taking advantage if you've kept someone holed up in your apartment for so many days? Weeks? To cut them off from all other contact and then offer only yourself as an outlet for physical intimacy? Eun has to wonder if she's judging this too much by human standards, or if that's exactly what she should be doing. Of course, it's a fleeting thought that is dispelled by the first touch of his lips to hers.

They have been squabbling since he first found himself bound to her, but apparently in a moment like this...perhaps they have common ground enough to ignore the small annoyances. She returns the kiss, turning a little on his knees so that she faces him more. Leaning forward, Eun braces her hands on either side of his head, against the back of the chair so she can take her time exploring how he feels, how he kisses.

And to herself, at least, she'll admit that this risky thing of kissing a demon in her home is giving her more of a thrill than any first kiss has before.]
