I... want you to tell me that stuff. Yeah. The shirt stuff, not the other stuff. Not that the other stuff isn't good, but uh, you know.
[Does he know. It seems like maybe he doesn't know. Junpei shakes his head, reaches back with one hand to run his fingers into Charles' hair.]
Don't worry about being pushy? The stuff you want matters to me.
my end of 2024 gift to you
