Computer science might be interesting, he'd need to look into it one day. Maybe ask Jihyun to show him what she could do with the keyboard, or just let her code in general while he'd simply watch, without her needing to explain and/or be nervous about it. He wouldn't mind sitting in silence, it was something he liked as well. Changkyun couldn't help but smile and rubbed the back of his neck as a light blush appeared onto his cheeks, "Thank you~ It's really a big milestone, and a wild thing to accomplish in general. I'm proud of it." He caught a glimpse of the little trinket, it keeping the smile on his face. He could get her something Sanrio themed, or Hello Kitty in general, "Egg fried rice and chicken have been calling to me all day... So I was thinking of that. Would you want some too? I could also get us pizza or so."

Her smile grew and she lifted her hands and gave him a small clap with her finger tips as the rest of her hands were hidden away by her oversized hoodie. A milestone accomplishment was always important and should be celebrated. She'll buy him a dessert after the meal as celebration. And maybe an excuse for her just to have another strawberry cake. "Th-that sounds good. L-let's get that, what you uhm have been cr-craving all day." She nodded quickly. "O-oh can you h-hold one second?" She smiled up at him and pointed at the convenience store across.

Well, he was very tall and could easily dominate a physical situation, had he wanted to. But he was a gentle giant who'd rather be logical with things. And he knew how lots of women would "take a chance with a bear rather than with a man". Many men were horrible. Seeing the little laugh had Ullr feeling relieved, knowing she was more comfortable with him, even with an injury. Snowy area rescuers would be equipped with a pack like his, maybe with more things tho and with a partner. And with thick clothing to prevent freezing. Some would fly a helicopter if needed. But Ullr couldn't exactly just say that he was a deity of the old ways. The little praise made him chuckle, "Thank you miss." Once she had sat down, he got to his position again and glanced at her over his shoulder, "I'm strong tho, could easily pick you up if needed. Ready? Let's go then." Taking the ski poles, he used them to push himself onto the move, the rope attached to him pulling the sled along. He tried to keep the pace as steady as possible.

"Eunsoo." She responded when he called her miss. She may as well share her name, it wasn't like they were going to be apart from each other any time soon, may as well make acquaintance now. And it was only manners that she was nice to him since he was helping her off the mountain. What a funny turn of events she thought to herself. Holding on tight, she made a squeak when the makeshift sled actually started working. She wasn't sure why part of her had doubts that it would work. But the fact that it was working now certainly had her heart in her throat. She definitely wasn't expecting to be riding a makeshift rollercoaster. "Will take long, yes?" Was her heart going to be able to live through the rest of this mountain?!

"If this is your last semester, then that's more reason for me to watch a lecture. I want to see my boyfriend in his professor era while I still can!" Precious memories to be made as she silently cheered him on in the back for her to lock away and cherish when they grew old together.

Harper had more flexibility in her schedule now that she wasn't as busy as she had been. She could take off the time to visit him more or choose to spend it at home -- she loved their new home. It was different from the apartment they'd left, now it was more cozy and had plenty of space for all her clothes and shoes. There was a growing collection of designer purses, and of course stuffed bears she'd collected from Daehyun over their years together. "Can we have a bath together tonight?" she asked as they pulled in. "We haven't had one together in a while. It would be nice!"

"If it's what your heart desires." Daehyun nodded in agreement. There was no reason for him to turn Harper down if she so wanted to watch him teach. It would be an end of a time in his career, much like things in his past, just a chapter that closes. Though he likely wouldn't really look back on his time as a lecturer fondly, it was still an experience to be had.

It was a quick drive back, and when he got the car into the spot, he looked over. "A bath? Are you sure you want to take a bath together having been away for so long, Harper?" It wasn't that he didn't want to but it had also been some time since they were together and intimacy was something he wasn't entirely sure about. It probably took some getting used to again. "Are you ready to head up? I can get the bath started for you."

“ Chances are im being dramatic and I’m fine with walking alone but tonight I just feel like I should be around people and not alone. “ He started before signing. “ I moved here a month ago and I kind of feel like I’m being watched if I must be honest. “

Cyrus was being honest, he did truly feel that way — or maybe it was just the way the world was working, maybe it was just natural when you first move but he didn’t like it … Thay was one thing..

"I see." Pureum replied quietly. He was never one to be good at connecting with others' emotions. They were harder to interpret than the punch angle that might be coming from his opponent in the ring. Though he sympathize with starting anew. Sure, he still kept contact with those from his past, but has moved onto a new life away from the troubles.

"There are ways to meet people, I'm sure. My coworkers find much success at the gyms and local cafes." It was where he met most of his coworkers, actually, sparing at the local gym when he was trying to figure work out.

"I'll tell her to be nice to you, since it was entirely my idea. You had nothing to do with it! I'll let her know, I promise. Then she can just focus on taking it out on me...Unless her plan is to make you so exhausted that you can't do anything else...She wouldn't think like that though! Right..?" Even Jae sounded unsure of just what her friend was capable of. Sure, Yejin was usually a bit softer with revenge compared to Jae, but Jae had also rubbed off some. Honestly, she wasn't sure what to expect out of her best friend. "Anyways...They're nice and comfy! And yes, they can't breed so if she sends it over, we don't have to worry."

#secretxxpaladaiseu #i; replies

Of course, Ilseong wasn't as optimistic as Jaeyoung was with Yejin's extreme punishments. But seeing his girlfriend all happy? All of it was worth it. Smiling brightly at her "even if she does take revenge on me, I'm still going to love and spoil you. That's not going to change. And to see how happy you are with them? It'll be worht it." He chuckled softly. "Well, then now we have two beds! We can lay on them and watch movies together while we cuddle together."

“ Sure, you can walk with me.. “ He smiled. “ it’s nice to meet you, Pureum. “ He smiled and then looked in the direction of the way he pointed. “ well, what do you say we go then? “ Cyrus said, not complaining about having someone to walk with on this lonely night.

“ It’s beautiful out, it was a bit of a shame I was walking alone, hm-? “

"Nice to meet you too." He offered a curt, awkward nod. Slinging his gym bag over his shoulders, he slid his hands into his pockets and started leading the way. The neighborhood has now become so familiar to him, Pureum rarely needed the map anymore.

"Is it a shame?" Perhaps a tad blunt, followed by a shrug. "I typically walk alone so I wouldn't know better. I'm assuming you're usually around others."

“ All I know is I took a wrong turn — and don’t apologize man, you weren’t paying attention. “ He smiled, giving a nod to forgive him. “ don’t even worry about it, this happens all the time and it’s always the same street. “ Cyrus sighed. “ I’m Cyrus, and the street I’m trying to find is.. this one.. “ he pointed to the one on his phone screen.

"Pureum. And yeah, a lot of people complain about that. Unfortunately, the roads can't be fixed, but maybe GPS can get better." He returned the smile with a half smile and turned his attention to the phone screen. "Cool- so like you're going to just go back out this way... you know what, I could just walk you there as an apology. I'm off work anyway and I don't have anything else to do." He looked at the time on his phone quickly to confirm he had sometime before his scheduled appointment at the gym.

Securing the knot few more times, he took the ski poles, leaning on them for a moment while looking down the mountain, then to his watch. They still had another hour of daylight, maybe ten or fifteen to the resort if they hurried, "Serial killer?" His tone was surprised while turning to look at her again, but gave her a reassuring smile, "If I'm completely honest, such fear is understandable. But I aim to bring you safely back to the resort. And yes, you just sit on it. I could do one more thing..." Now muttering, he took her skiis she had taken off already, and put them under the branch sled so it would slide more smoothly on the snow, "Some years ago I volunteered to help in a rescue team, so you could say it like that. But please, get comfortable and make sure to hold on." Offering his hand, he helped Eunsoo to sit down on the sled, "I would have offered for you to hop onto my back but it might not be good for your leg."

She was surprised how understanding this man was. Given she had simply called him a creep and serial killer all in one go. And his reassurance made her laugh. Maybe it was silly, but she couldn't help laughing at the scenario at hand. It was possibly the best outcome in a series of unfortunate events. If nothing else, at least she could tell her manager she stumbled upon a hot guy who helped save her life in the middle of the snowy mountain after nearly a fun fall. "Oh." So he was some kind of first response rescuer. Her mind wandered for a moment, imaging which of the uniforms he'd be in and decided he'd probably make a hot firefighter. Of course, this was all just fun she was coming up with in her mind. "You are skill, very skill." She said as she took his hand and used it to steady herself onto the makeshift sled. Thankfully, she was small, otherwise, she'd be worried. "I may be too heavy for your back." She chuckled and used both hands to lift her leg onto the sled and grunted. Why were ski boots so uncomfortable again? Once she was situated, she gripped onto the sides of the sled and looked up at him. "Okay. Ready."

After taking even a sip of the drink, Changkyun felt himself more energized and a faint shade of blush slowly rose to his cheeks while watching Jihyun giggle, "I'd ask if you needed help with it but I know nada of that area, and I believe you know much more than I could ever even imagine." If one day Jihyun wanted to explain, he'd gladly listen even if he wouldn't understand the terms. Seeing her excited over things she liked made Changkyun happy. He then nodded with a light hum, "Yeah, somewhat slower. We had our 10th debut anniversary lately which is rather mind blowing." He explained, getting up with her and swinging his own pack over his shoulder after sliding the extra strawberry milk carton to the side pocket to carry, "I'm not sure yet.. Do you crave anything specific today? We could grab something to-go, eat someplace calm in general or order take-out."

Jihyun smiled and nodded slowly. She was sure if Changkyun wanted to, he'd be great in computer science. Coding had always seem like the kind of thing others simply got into and enjoyed. In her world, coding meant she could avoid others at all cost, she didn't have to speak and there was no one around judging her speech impediment. Clapping her hands together gently in celebration of his ten years. "C-congrat-congratulations! T-that's a uhm r-really big m-milestone." She nodded with a bright smile. Slinging her comically large bookbag over her shoulders, a small Hello Kitty trinket dangling from the zipper, she got to her feet and did a little wiggle to balance out the weight. "U-uhm... I a-always eat the s-same things. I-If we uh g-g-got takeout w-where would w-we go?"

Daehyun never lied before, so if he said he'd try, she believed it. Harper happily grinned as she leaned back in her seat, still holding his hand as he drove. "I wanted to sit in one of your lectures. I don't think I'll learn much, but I want to try." She'd tried reading enough of his example files and still couldn't find the loop holes. Besides, he was a good lawyer and if she was going to learn anything, she'd learn it from him.

"I won't fall asleep if that's what you're worried about," she added. "I want to be there and support you since I can't come to court and support you there. It would be fun to see you in your element..." And she'd secretly missed him more, so if she could still spend time with him while he worked, just being there as a guest while he lectured would be enough for her.

His eyes focused on the road as she spoke. Glancing over at the stop light. "It's okay if you were to fall asleep during the lecture. There are many who do, in fact, fall asleep during class." It never bothered him, he accepted that he wasn't the most engaging professor in the college. And probably, simply wasn't teaching material. It was much easier putting things into action at the courts than attempting to explain the theories in class.

"I just worry that it's a waste of your time. Though, I have been meaning to tell you, I think this may be my last semester teaching." Daehyun was sure there would be a sort of disappointment for Harper, but he's come to terms that teaching, like the other career he had tried out when he was younger, simply wasn't meant to be. Perhaps entertaining others was simply not in his blood.

“ I tried to explain I took a wrong turn and you wouldn’t listen to me — “ The man said, looking at him. “ I just wanted to ask for directions, sorry for causing a disturbance. “

"Oh-" he breathed out and sighed. "Sorry, man. I wasn't paying attention when I was working. Where do you need to get to? The streets can be a little confusing sometimes with all the alleys. My bad."
