[despite his usual standoffish ways, even baby can sometimes be caring, especially when it comes to physical injuries. those he knows how to handle pretty well, given he's had plenty himself.
a thoughtful little hum passes his lips as he works over romance's arm.] I could really go for some kimbap right now. Maybe some japchae, too?
[ It feels niceโฆ sort of. It stings, but the touch is gentle, and thatโs what he craves. Heโs watching Babyโs fingers on his skin, nerves settling. ]
[the sting will eventually die down, but the brush of baby's fingers is slow, meticulous, almost like he's trying to linger for whatever reason. he does withdraw once he's finished though, wiping any excess off on his jeans before he moves to recap the tube and put it back in the box.]
[the look doesn't go unnoticed. baby tilts his head questioningly, wondering what exactly it is that is bothering romance, but he doesn't ask. instead, he plucks his phone out from his pocket and starts scrolling through the nearby restaurants for take-out options.]
Don't be silly, Ro. It's just take-out.
lmfsodfjk he'd be like 'romance is the wife in this relationship, dammit'
[he watches him for the moment, thumb idly tapping his phone screen, though following that remark, he doesn't resist smirking faintly and shaking his head.]
Terrible joke. [still made him smile, nevertheless, and he goes back to ordering their food afterward.]
Do you want something to drink? [ He's pretty sure he can handle that, at least. There's plenty of actual soda but there's also a solid amount of booze hanging around. ]
[of course he is, it's just particular moments where it hits better with baby.]
Sure. What have we got? [he's quickly finishing up the order, setting it for delivery and hitting โsendโ before setting the phone aside. afterward, his arms tuck loosely across his chest, fingertips rubbing at his arms.]
[ He abandons his guard duty on the sink in favor of dropping to his knees to look through the cabinets, reaching deep inside, groping for the bottles he knows are there. Plenty of soju, and plenty of flavored vodka. Cherry, vanilla, blue raspberry, mango... Who bought all this shit? ]
[and that's when baby decides to sneak a peek, his head turning in the direction of the sink, his features briefly twisting at the sight. damn, that really is a mess, isn't it? it's fine, something for future baby and romance to worry about, not something to focus on right now. instead, he downturns then crouches beside him, considering what bottles they have in the cabinet.]

You probably should. I might mess something up.

Don't be silly, Ro. It's just take-out.
lmfsodfjk he'd be like 'romance is the wife in this relationship, dammit'
It was...half a joke. [ But only half. ]
that's exactly what he would insist
Terrible joke. [still made him smile, nevertheless, and he goes back to ordering their food afterward.]

Sure. What have we got? [he's quickly finishing up the order, setting it for delivery and hitting โsendโ before setting the phone aside. afterward, his arms tuck loosely across his chest, fingertips rubbing at his arms.]
