[ It’s harder to believe that sentiment than it is to believe that Sungki believes it. He knows the fae can’t lie, and he trusts him implicitly. —even if the fae has a harder time trusting him. Is that going to be worse now that he’s worse than human?
Hunter releases a breath he didn’t realize he’d been holding. He’d been tense the whole time Sungki had been gone. He’s always tense when his fae is gone. He isn’t codependent so much as he just feels safer with him. More at home. ]
I don’t want you to suffer for me. No matter how much value you think I have.
[sungki arches an eyebrow at the request - command? there is some hesitation. some. but then he bends his head down and sinks his teeth into the other's hand, breaking skin and drawing blood while he looks up into his eyes.
[ it should hurt—maybe it does and his body just doesn’t register it as anything new. Or maybe he’s just distracted by the others eyes. His own lid a little at the sharp pressure of the bite; a bite that not too long ago literally removed someone else’s fingers. ]
[this is the part where he's supposed to let go. but it's kind of hard when hunter's looking at him that way. it's kind of hard when the taste of his blood is nothing like the others, warmer and sweeter.
but he does, licking the last bit of it away from his lips.]
Don’t worry, next time he won’t tell him to basically stop. It’s obvious they both like it. But he absently licks his own bottom lip and while he is stuck watching the way the blood looks staining the others mouth, he can feel the bite beginning to heal; it’s slower than usual but he’s not surprised.
Still it’s a smaller wound and it heals well enough that he just wiggles his fingers. ]

[ it’s not a normal topic of conversation but it is interesting.
He probably doesn’t even realize that he’s staring at Sungki like he’s his favorite thing in the whole world but he is. ]

[sungki leans in to whisper the words before grinning. as if the words were sweet nothings in his ear.]
no subject
[ his eyes lid a little, falling on that grin he loves so much before sliding back up to meet his eyes. ]
no subject
[it's quiet, so quiet that sungki might've meant to say it to himself. he keeps his eyes on hunter's face as he leans closer.]
Listen to me. Your value is so much more than you realize. You've been lied to about that, over and over. But I can't lie.

[the fae rolls his eyes before smirking.]
I don't think love is supposed to be completely painless. And I wouldn't want it to be.
no subject
I’m sorry. I do that? At least I don’t have cold feet.
no subject
[sungki hums in agreement. yes, it could be worse. for example.]
Do you really think you'll heal? [a glance given to his broken wings.] Because I will miss pinning you against the wall if they don't.
no subject
[ he softens and smiles. ]
Worried?
no subject
[the might have to get creative. more creative.]
Maybe if we suspended you from the ceiling...
no subject
Don’t worry. I’ll be okay. Watch…hurt me.
[ he holds out his hand, palm up. ]
Just cut me or something. Don’t break anything.
no subject
oops, he did say not to break anything though.]
no subject
Now watch…

See? I’ll be okay. I’ve been doing it since…
[ he pauses. ]
…a long time.
