im sure thatll go well!

why wouldnt you be?

[foxtwo]

i'm just thinking that his mother is the one that got him into the matchmaking thing, so she's probably old-fashioned, and she probably expects more of a commitment from me before letting me defile her son

she probably doesn't think it's already been done, and even if she does, she might not want to have it under her roof

[braced]

ah

that is kind of tricky. i think id want to sneak into the room anyway if it was me. and be quiet. but thats dangerous

[foxtwo]

you like that? the idea of getting caught?

we'll see how it goes, but... i've gotten too used to sleeping curled up with someone, be it joon or sungki, so. it's probably going to happen.

[braced]

it can be... fun

its not a crime to cuddle someone under their mothers roof

[foxtwo]

interesting. see, i feel like it could be a thrill here, with the people potentially catching us out are friends. but she's his mother...

hm. cuddle. yeah.

[braced]

so you think its more scary than thrilling?

or play baseball.

[foxtwo]

i'd be worried she'd take him away from me, and i'd never see him again. like, she has that power, you know? he's an adult, of course, but i don't know if he'd go against his mother.

yes, yes, that. i do enjoy baseball the best. then cuddling. cuddling after baseball.

[braced]

why wouldnt he? youre his important person. he likes you enough to take you to her.

cuddling is nice. really adds to the baseball to cuddle after

[foxtwo]

but if she doesn't like me, do you think he'd choose me, over the woman who raised and loved him and showed him the way his whole life?

mmm yeah, that's true. i really like that.

[braced]

i dont think it would be a choice to make. would you make joon choose if he had a friend you didnt like?

[foxtwo]

if i thought that friend was a terrible influence on him? absolutely, i would. no hesitation.

[braced]

youre not a terrible influence on sungki.

[foxtwo]

well, i'd agree, but his mother might not

[braced]

maybe to be safe pretend youre waiting until marriage

[foxtwo]

yeah, that's my plan, if sungki lets me. as long as she doesn't ask *when* said marriage is to happen...

[braced]

just pretend its not yet decided. think on your feet!

[foxtwo]

the kind of thing I was born to do

oh also don't tell joone about any of this, i've already had to stop him from getting a ticket to come with us once. he just doesn't think i'm able to deal with this by myself

[braced]

he wants to come with and babysit you?

[foxtwo]

yes. he mentioned it once, and i talked him out of the idea, but i think he's always half a second away from getting a plane ticket for himself

i can do this, junsu.

[braced]

i know you can.

dont worry. i dont want him to leave so ill make sure he doesnt have a reason

[foxtwo]

i know that it's just because he feels responsible for me, but he keeps on thinking he's that much more mature and grown up than I am, and that I'm barely able to feed myself. I love him more than life itself and he is the best person I know, but by Inari he is frustrating.

Also, you don't have to worry. He'll never leave you.

[braced]

i love him for that. i know its frustrating though

you sound sure

[foxtwo]

you love him for thinking i'm immature?

it's because i am.

[braced]

no! i love him for being so... like. he has to make sure everything is going according to his standards and he worries about people he loves so then his standards get really unreasonable

yeah?
