'i don't need a date, i need cash' beziel
the way things turned out for beziel this fine afternoon, is far from how he has envisioned them. he had wanted nothing more than to lounge around in goethe’s basement, enjoying to the fullest how cold the air is compared to the bothersome drought outside, and do nothing taxing, whether mentally or physically, until he was knocked out by sheer exhaustion.
clearly, that didn’t fucking happen.
clemente had done an awful job at explaining the situation thoroughly, or even barely, but she’s the cutest thing ever, and certainly the cutest out of this lot, so he can easily overlook this horrible habit of hers.
all beziel knows is that clement was out of breath, dragging a less than impressed jiyeon behind her, and that she unceremoniously forced her to plop down on the sofa opposite his with the promise that it won’t be long til she returns.
and so, here beziel is, utterly overwhelmed with the situation — if feels awfully like one of those cliche tv moments where an absent father attempts to rekindle whatever crumbs of a relationship he’s got left with his rebellious teenage daughter, and beziel honestly doesn’t feel all that prepared for this sort of commitment.
❝you ain’t got some sweetheart to leech free dinner from instead of being locked up in here with me ?❞ beziel eventually whines, the picture-perfect of a petulant child past his prime.
jiyeon is, genuinely, less annoying and invasive than he makes her out to be in his narration; it’s just that beziel simply has no clue as to how to interact with her in an organic way, as far away as possible from painting him out to be some pot-bellied creep trying to sweet talk a babe into hopping inside his van.
the few times their paths crossed, it was mandragora who took over the ship, whilst beziel was chilling in some far away corner if the dark, empty universe.
❝i don’t need a date, i need cash.❞
beziel blinks expressionless at her answer, first of all, because he hadn’t expected her to dignify him with any sort of answer. but he gets it, kind of, or at the very least, speculates he does.
jiyeon must be feeling just as uncomfortable and lost as he does being forced into a room with just him. so he sighs, relenting.
❝yeah, ditto.❞
beziel stands up, half-yawning as he begins putting on a show whilst stretching his muscles, going far and beyond the modest. at this point, it matters little.
❝say, how about you graverobbing with me, hmm ?❞
might have to dig his own grave in the meantime once clemente catches wind of just what beziel has been doing to entertain her most esteemed guest, but oh well.
