...I need everything that happened to us in bullet points.

[plotdevised]

[thefaultinthestars]

And start with the Oldest Dream.

In exchange, I'll tell you everything I know that you don't know yet.

[plotdevised]

Show me proof.

[thefaultinthestars]

Proof of what?

[plotdevised]

Everything you just described.

[thefaultinthestars]

...fine. We'll need to go to Cirrus, though. You'll have to interact with people who like you and want you to cook for them.

[plotdevised]

What.

[thefaultinthestars]

You were in the middle of an adoption arc.

[plotdevised]

No.

[thefaultinthestars]

Now's no time to be a coward, Jung. They're friendly. And you don't have to cook for them I'm just telling you they'll ask for it.

[takes his hands out of the water and tentatively shakes them, they seem to be unbroken now, and his tail has started wagging slowly in the water as he teases]

[plotdevised]

What did you just call me.

[thefaultinthestars]

Jung Dumplingman. It's the name you were born with in this world.

[plotdevised]

[suddenly the tip of his sword is inches away from Booker's Adam's apple]

Say that again and I'll slice your throat open.

[thefaultinthestars]

[well here is one difference between Kim Dokja and Booker Storm.

Kim Dokja would at least feign being put off by this

Booker Storm is clearly activated

puts a dragon claw on the tip of the sword]

Jung Dumplingman.

Don't take it so hard, I got 'Reid Solo'.

1/2

[plotdevised]

[what the absolute FUCK]

[plotdevised]

[hits his head with the flat of his sword. hard.]

Who are you?

[thefaultinthestars]

[ow, it's a good thing he is already in the healing pools for this probably, loses his balance temporarily and grabs his head where he was hit]

I told you. Haven't you been listening? I know it's a lot to take in, but I wasn't lying.

[plotdevised]

[just,

runs his sword through Booker's shoulder.

you know.

for science.]

1/2

[thefaultinthestars]

[well he pierces like any regular meaty person, not a dude with 300+ stamina.

But instead of blood flowing out little bit of story float up. Junghyeok might even recognize this part.]

[The Constellation 'Demonic Judge of Fire' does not wish for your death!] [The Constellation 'Demonic Judge of--

[thefaultinthestars]

[and then Booker moves forward, letting the sword skewer him deeper but aiming to get close enough to grab Junghyeok's hand by the hilt and his tail whipping up for his ankle to try to trip him into the pool]

1/2

[plotdevised]

[he is immediately distracted by the story flowing out. reading it, wondering how any of this could be possible in the first place]

[plotdevised]

[but then this unholy Kim Dokja impostor is grabbing his hand and tripping him into the pool and DOWN HE GOES, SPLOOSH.

he lands on top of Booker, though. sword still buried in his shoulder.]

[thefaultinthestars]

[hot

sorry jae who is reading this and horribly scandalized

and then something unlocks and Yu Junghyeok is getting a flood of interest, amusement, frustration, fun, pain, annoyance, affection, calculation -- just a whole host of emotions share, even as he realizes he is being shoved under water and absolutely cannot win this fight it's still kind of exciting and exhilarating and if he's using the pool's abilities he doesn't need to be able to talk

-You should know along with healing these pools have some other extra effects

Booker reaches a hand up to grab at Yu Junghyeok's throat]

1/???

[plotdevised]

[well at first there was only confusion, surprise and profound annoyance as he fell into the pool]
