"I suppose they do that,” he hummed. He had no opinion on the idea, especially not from the ethical point of view. Taking advantage of resources at hand seemed perfectly natural to him, and cows did not seem to suffer from being milked. Humankind had already gone past the point of relying to whatever was considered natural from the close-minded point of view, and milk had many useful nutrients even if it made some stomachs feel funny.
“Whatever that is supposed to mean,” Han said and raised an eyebrow at Junhong’s playful notion. “Are you saying I’m still going to be 19 when the world comes to an end and everything I have known and loved has cased to exist? I know I look good for my age, but I doubt I will live longer than 250 years or so. Oh, aliens? During my long life I have yet to encounter one.”
The constant age jokes coming from a 26-year-old were unnecessarily corny, but for some reason his circle of friends were mostly aged after 23. Maybe it made him the reliable big brother in their eyes.
“It’s amazing, you know. To see how the things you’ve thought are timeless keep changing. Though I don’t think that Pluto cares about whether it’s a planet or not.” He added with a weak smile, letting the conversation flow and float about random trivial matters as he kept emptying his glass with a help of lazy sucks. It was evening and he needed sleep, the leisurely motions and monotone tone of his voice being the only one to actually get in the mood. A sleepy one obviously.
“I think it’s a bit scary, not being able to grow up or die even if you’d like to. I’ve seen it in one TV show, some girl was infected with a virus that gained her a super quick regeneration and after her ex dumped her she tried to kill herself but couldn’t. Teenagers these days.” There was a clicking sound as he nipped on his tongue as well as some part of glass, in disapproval, as if he still wasn’t in his 10s, hoping his hyung will get this refined joke.
