He's going to just lean against Sousei anyway then, because he might as well get comfortable here since it's the warmest and most non-paranoid he's been all day.]
Admittedly I, too, would feel better with something to occupy myself with, but I'm aware it's a fool's errand to run around expending energy in the cold right now.

Sousei is just huddling deeper into the blankets.
And aggravatingly, it is warmer to be both huddled under the blankets.]
Just do not even think about it at all.
[Pretend it's not happening.
That's what he's doing.]
no subject
He's also going to push his luck and wrap an arm around Sousei because why wouldn't he.]
Why? Does it bother you to be so close to me?
no subject
[Sousei is trying to pry Jae-ha's arm off immediately. But he's trying to do so without disturbing the blanket so... ???
It's not working that well.]
It does. I'm not interested in being this close to you.
no subject
Why not? We could have fun like this.
[JAE-HA!!!]
no subject
[Oh...]
Why would I be interested in something like that?
no subject
[this is his proposal]
It'd be warmer, too.
[THIS IS HIS PROPOSAL]
no subject
No.]
That is a terrible idea.
I am going to pretend as though you never suggested it so that I do not feel inclined to kick you off of the bed.
no subject
He's going to just lean against Sousei anyway then, because he might as well get comfortable here since it's the warmest and most non-paranoid he's been all day.]
Really, why aren't you any fun at all?
no subject
Though.
He will at least allow that much, because it really is warm.]
Why would I want to be "fun"? There are far more important things at stake here.
no subject
Really? Right now? Exactly at this moment when I walked in and found you shivering on the bed?
no subject
Shivering here is more important than doing anything like that with you.
no subject
[but fine fine, he'll lay off for a little bit since he thinks it's just making sousei pricklier]
But you could stand to loosen up a little. You know no one's going to murder you here.
no subject
[Everyone else's, maybe... but Sousei just sighs, eyes closing for a minute.]
They are distracting us. That is the point of situations like this. [With the cold.
And it's working, too.]
no subject
Then - would you prefer we made an attempt at being productive? There's not even much to read here to pass the time.
[and he's an antsy dragon who doesn't like being unoccupied
he wants... a book... so badly]
no subject
A book would be amazing.]
Admittedly I, too, would feel better with something to occupy myself with, but I'm aware it's a fool's errand to run around expending energy in the cold right now.
no subject
[so in which regard - ]
What else should we do then? You already shot down my idea. Provide your own.
[look he's actually fairly comfortable relaxing here with sousei but he's
also easily bored]
no subject
... I cannot think of anything particularly productive that we can do from here.
[He admits that much.......slowly....]
no subject
He actually laughs, full of amusement.]
I take back everything I said.
I found what you're bad at.
no subject
Excuse me?
no subject
Jae-ha turns to face Sousei and if their faces are too close that's just because they're sitting close together!]
Then let's do something not productive.
Should I show you more notes to play on the erhu? Do you have anything you can teach me?
Or let's talk about something fun.
no subject
I do not believe I would be able to move my fingers well enough to play at the moment.
[Quite frankly.]
As for teaching... most of what I know is related to my duty.
[Does that help remotely at all?
Nope.]
no subject
[has anyone ever said that to his face]
no subject
Kiiko, in nicer words.]
Just because I am not interested in much beyond my duty does not make me hopeless.
no subject
[But whatever, Jae-ha likes talking so.]
What are your favorite foods? What do you do for fun? Do you need me to get the definition of fun for you?
no subject
... You enjoy hearing the sound of your own voice, so do not pretend otherwise.
[A beat, and:]
I know what fun is.
[God!!]
... My favorite food is karashi renkon. For fun...
[...]
I enjoy sparring, reading and collecting.
