Kim — [ Rotting gods, why does it feel more real now that she's said his name out loud? ] Kim doesn't have to be upset for this whole thing to be fucked sideways. I'm not about to have a fucking conversation with him where I explain that I accidentally sat on his partner's —

[ A half-beat. ]

What the fuck does that even mean, just partners?

[metafictions]

[oops.

his voice very subtly changes in tone: when he speaks again, it's with a faint Japanese accent. Guess thinking about Kim being a top makes you forget about the autotranslate?]

I think there's been a huge misunderstanding.

[ A deep breath. ]

...Not that kind of partner. Right.

What the absolute fuck, Kamui? You don't think you could have been a little more fucking clear? I swear to every fucking god —

[metafictions]

I-I'm so sorry. I wasn't paying attention, I assumed we were both speaking Japanese.

[AUDIBLY... WILTING...]

Let me be perfectly clear. They are detective partners. [....] I don't know if they're in a relationship.

[killtime]

[ .............. ]

So, what you're saying is — there's still a non-zero chance I fucked this up.

Well, neither of them have ever said anything.

[. . .]

They aren't. I'm pretty sure they aren't.

[......]

But, like we said. Kim doesn't talk about himself very much.

I'm sorry, you sat on his what?

[HELP]

Wait, don't answer that.

[killtime]

Yeah, no, I think we're fucked around with forbidden knowledge enough for one night.

[ MY GOD SHE IS SO FULL OF REGRETS ]

I need a fucking drink.

[metafictions]

I'll buy. I think I owe you one after all that.

[Also, he DESPERATELY needs one, too.]
