KimHye-jin: ... I'm going to get back to work now.

And with that she's going to close the chat app and do... something else. Maybe outside.

"I don't understand what his gameplan is," grumbles Hye-jin, angrily. "As far as I can tell he's done nothing to either of us, everything just, just matches up to what we think happened, even when we do shit like karaoke and - I've been back to the bookstore he showed me?? What is his game!!"

She has learned by now to avoid calling Kang Jaeha by name, entirely for Tae-gun's benefit. His twitch is subtle, but Hye-jin's gotten better at figuring out his subtleties.

Permalink

"I have no idea. The thing is we don't really know what his goal is, right? He probably could've done something to make you trust him longer term, dressed up as someone else from the start. That once-and-done thing was... bizarre. But—" He pauses and looks at Tae-gun.

Permalink

Tae-gun is probably not going to be a very active participant in this conversation, sorry. But he's not going to stop it.

Permalink

"...back then, he was... very subtle. There was a lot of changing people's tones of voice a little bit, make them sound like they said something that was still in-character but a little bit different, make the background environment just a lot more hostile to hyung without ever doing anything that couldn't be waved away as memory being unreliable if anyone ever questioned it."

Permalink

Tae-gun flinches but this is not the first time Woo-young's described the whole... everything... in such stark details. It just... hurts to think about, every time.

Permalink

"Right, but these are actual audio recordings and it's just. Everything checks out!! ... Also I'm not sure he could have gotten me to trust him long term? I'm kind of guarded, especially around strangers, it would have taken actual months. Maybe 'bumbling harmless idiot' was the best result he could get out of me in the time he had."

Permalink

"He would do it for months if he needed to," murmurs Tae-gun, looking at his feet. "He's... he doesn't give up. And he's patient."

Permalink

"Okay, then why even... I would have expected that after he did his dramatic reveal he would then start fucking with me to get me to stop trusting reality and do something stupid! What was even the point of tracking me down to say hello in person, then???"

Permalink

Tae-gun leans forward and rests his head on his hands.

Permalink

"...hyung, is it okay if I—"

Permalink

"Just do what you need to do. I'll—deal."
