per usual he catches her in the midst of delicate fingers turning a page, this round being a fashion magazine rather than her routine cheesy romantic manga. eyes are already directed at the male, singular brow arched as she recognizes hesitation - a bit odd she finds it, at least when he approaches her; the two normally well into the realm of being comfortable around one another.
though her unspoken curiosity is soon answered and it takes a minute, maybe more, for her to process and understand the request. she doesn’t bat an eyelash however, despite being taken aback by the question he actually voiced (this was real life goodness gracious). ultimately she decides to remain quiet upon inquiring for an explanation; eyes freely scan the male head to toe, attempting to maintain an expression of indifference before settling on his gaze.
“You’re going to be one ugly girl.”
heart long migrated past its location in the mediastinum and has migrated and lodged in his esophagus as he awaits her response. desperately searches her face for a response. it is an odd request and he knows it. not everyday does a man ask to be transformed but he needs to do this - some sort of wish to understand that perhaps by taking such an action the chasm can be bridged bit by bit. the price of pride is nothing compared the chances of a salvageable relationship.
taehyun keeps burning bridges and one day he'll learn to build them. perhaps today marks the beginning of such days.
and when she finally speaks, his lips pull into a frown, obviously offended by the mere thought that he could be an unattractive female.
"But I will still be prettier than you."
the obvious retort. he probably won't even come close, especially after such a blatant decoration of war. vulnerable with his face at stake under her fingers and brushes. ah well. still worth a shot.
"So..." uncertain, half way between an inhale and some form of speech, "yes or no?" just to confirm of course.
