You are not acting like yourself, and that is bothersome to me.
[Honestly!!
Also you are giving him a lot of credit; he processes that emotion as jealousy, but not like.......jealousy for what. It never crosses his mind that it might be in relation to him.]
Tell me what is troubling you, and I will decide if it is worth discussing.
You let Souji massage your shoulders? When you've turned me down every single time I've tried? And he said it was easy! Since when is anything about you easy?!
[says jae-ha, who only has fun when there's a chase involved,,]
[uggghhhhh he's infuriating. he can't even deny the fact that he's a sadist!
. . . . and yet underneath the irritation, there's that spark of interest, of heat, of stirring curiosity that comes up any time sousei does something that catches jae-ha's attention
arrogant is unfortunately a very good look on him, as far as jae-ha's concerned]
... if you enjoy toying with me so much, you might as well make it good for both of us, you know.
[The worst part is that he can feel that spark of interest, that stirring curiosity, and the worst part is that there's a part of Sousei that responds in the way that's almost daring Jae-ha to do something about it.
Arrogant is a look that sticks with him, and a feeling that does as well.
So it's sure a good thing Jae-ha likes it, isn't it?]
It sounds like an invitation and feels like a challenge - and Jae-ha seems to take a moment where he has to double-check, to be certain that this isn't the castle messing with him, before he just settles on a laugh. He's surprised, but it quickly settles into amusement. There's an opportunity here and he doesn't plan to miss it.
Hence why he lets himself lean into Sousei's space - ]
Do I have to provide the answers? I'm sure you can think of something we'd both enjoy.
[And he could've sworn that he suggested it just a few days ago, too.]
[Jae-ha leans into Sousei's space, and Sousei...does not lean back. Instead, quietly, he quirks an eyebrow at Jae-ha, and even though Jae-ha leans in, he keeps his arms crossed.]
Hm, well... it felt as though it was something you would enjoy.
[Providing those answers.]
But nonetheless, I am not arguing.
[Are the feelings he's feeling his own, or the bleed from Jae-ha, or some strange mix in between? He doesn't know, but it's fine.
Regardless Jae-ha sifts through the emotions and doesn't quite manage to find anything against his roundabout proposal. Rather, there's only the interest that grows, the curious fire that only licks at his nerves all the more intently as he closes the distance between the two of them.]
—maybe I'll just have to try harder to make it good for you too.
[Though he only speaks those words when he's close enough that Sousei might feel them against his lips - leaning in the rest of the way to close the distance between their lips a second later.

hm.
there's a note of amusement and:]
Do you promise to remember that you asked to have this conversation?
no subject
[WHAT IS THIS ABOUT, JAE-HA... he's only confused, that much is plain.]
no subject
right
next to sousei
and look at him with deadly seriousness]

no subject
Oh my god.
Sousei blinks slowly.
S l o w l y.]
... That is what is bothering you?
[THAT SOUJI GAVE HIM A MASSAGE...??]
no subject
Ah, ah.
Remember - you wanted to have this conversation.
I tried not to waste our time, but you wouldn't have it.
no subject
You are jealous of Souji?
no subject
eugh
he looks annoyed at the mention again]
Something like that.
I already said it's childish - do we have to keep talking about it?
no subject
[Sousei does have a mean streak, after all.]
I did not expect something like this from you, but it certainly does explain the feelings I've been experiencing. I had been wondering.
no subject
jae-ha is probably thinking similar things with both amusement and exhaustion
anyway.]
I'd hope that it's nothing more than a mild discomfort. But you're right that I normally don't get like this.
[jae-ha is so many things
petty isn't really one of them?]
no subject
Hm, well. I suppose I will leave it at that, if you'd prefer.
[Because Jae-ha sure does seem exhausted.]
I am simply satisfied to know.
[His own amusement is...a little too plain with that link they're sharing, but it's not mean-spirited amusement, at least.]
no subject
You didn't answer any of my questions, you sadist.
no subject
... Hm, no, I suppose I didn't.

Oh? And how would you suggest I do that?
this is bad content and i hate you

Maybe.

This is one way to solve jealousy.]
