"You weren't! Do you need guiding right now? Because I think that takes precedence over - actually absolutely no ice today, regardless, you haven't done anything this whole time, and it feels like you have some backlog? We can just, um, cuddle, and I can occasionally play with fire to help chip away at your backlash faster?"

Hand touch?

aaaaaahhhhh that feels so nice whyyyyyyy "you mentioned kissing" FOR GOD'S SAKE LEE TAE-GUN

"F-for backlash efficiency? Yes, I, um. If you'd be comfortable with it and need to -"

Yeah sorry Kim Hye-jin she's now getting full-on makeouts while Korea's only S-rank esper is bodily attached to you and squeezing you firmly against himself.

oh okay.

this is her life now, apparently.

no complaints.

makeouts with pretty boy who asks good questions and is light novel bullshit compatible sounds great to her.

Fuck this feels incredible. He was reasonably compatible with his prior partners but this is just out of this world. And he is actually a little bit backlashed because he hasn't really been guided at all recently; Ha Si-yeon offered to cover him but he felt embarrassed especially now that Si-yeon has a new partner and he might've given in eventually especially after he got backlashed enough that his dick started talking more loudly than his brain, but right now he's glad he didn't because this is amazing. 

Also, speaking of his dick, there is very little physical space between the two of them.

So, prioritize that birth control thing very much, and maybe try to take care of that in some way before they are next left alone in a room together. That's the major takeaway the little tiny percentage of her that is still thinking logical thoughts has.

She's pretty content to keep things here in the land of makeouts? His excitement is very flattering but evaluating what carnal acts are and are not okay sounds hard. (Heh.) Makeouts are pretty backlash efficient, and also fantastic, and furthermore are plenty new to her in particular.

The little percentage of Tae-gun's brain that's thinking thoughts isn't thinking very logical ones; he's mostly thinking up ways to get Hye-jin's clothes off and then having to stop himself from doing that because they'd both regret it but would they EVALUATE AT A LATER TIME.

But they're interrupted by a wolf-whistle and clapping from a tiny blond bombshell of a man with numerous ear piercings.

????? wha??

Lee Tae-gun has once again jumped away from her and is still blushing and tenting a bit but his horniness is being quickly replaced by annoyance. "Hyung," he says in something that could be described as a growl.

??? but makeouts though??? Whine???

"Oh, please don't stop on account of us, we wouldn't want to intrude."

"Us" in this case being him and a pink-haired pink-eyed girl even tinier than he is, blushing nearly as much as Tae-gun and looking thoroughly embarrassed. 

"Sunbae—!" she exclaims, but she doesn't seem to have a follow-up to that.

Okay brain that is not devoted to a litany of 'do not get pregnant' is coming online aaaaaand:

(That growl was hot though, no bad stay on target!!)

"R-right, sorry, um. We. Are in the practice room," she says, mostly for her own benefit. "We'll, um. Go elsewhere?"

The second half of this is directed at Tae-gun, because she doesn't know an elsewhere for them to go to.

"—my silo? Or—shared Quasar silo?" In case she doesn't want to be somewhere owned by a complete stranger, which Tae-gun is. ...he supposes the Quasar silo is also owned by complete strangers but it's different.

"Awww, so I can't watch?"

"Hyung I will kill you with a knife."

"That a promise?"

He looks at Hye-jin again in a mixture of irritation and horny panic.

His own personal silo sounds like it would end in so many mistakes.

"Quasar silo? If it's, um." she glances at the newcomers who interrupted them, and her meaning is clear. If they're not likely to be interrupted there.

Yup yup yup he can request a teleport and then they're in a nice if somewhat nondescript apartment which includes a suite whose open door reveals a very large bed. 

"I—sorry—he's—"

"An ass, but he did have a point," snorts Hye-jin, who can't stand the lack of physical touch happening and reaches out to take his hands. "It's fine. I'm okay. You?"

He's now making out with her again is how. He forgot to take his shoes off before starting to do that so he'll just kick them off without detaching from her.

She huffs a laugh into his lips, kicks her own shoes off, and starts back up the litany of 'do not get pregnant' in the back of her head.

Everything else is fair game, though.
