This is Jesus. Leave a message.

Jesus has people to take care of; more than that, he's getting some fulfillment out of being able to, so K doesn't mind that he still needs to go.

But he feels a lot better now, more settled; Jesus will be back. He smiles.

"I'd like that," he assures him. "And V will be happy to see you too I'm sure."

He still doesn't let go, thumb smoothing over the side of Jesus's hand.

"May I kiss you?"
konstant: (Flowers)

K was pretty confident of the answer, but he'd still much rather ask than assume; he remembers the way Jesus had withdrawn in the room with the jellyfish the last time they were physically together.

He could say this. Instead he leans down the short distance to kiss Jesus now.

K meets him where he is, and as the second kiss breaks too, he stays close; the room where V is is silent, and the door they're behind locks. He doesn't mind lingering like this.

He brushes the backs of his fingers along Jesus's neck, rests his hand at his shoulder and nods; it's a harder permission for him to give in turn, not the least because it's difficult for him to believe anyone would wait for it.

But he thinks that and he knows in the moment after that Jesus absolutely does, so he offers, "You too."
konstant: (Talking)

[personal profile] konstant 2022-10-12 01:47 am (UTC)(link)
He raises an eyebrow, but yes, he's sure.

"It's not illegal here to be too attached to replicants," he offers - explanation for both at once. "So yes, I'm sure. On break."

Jesus winces and in the next moment K's hands are there to steady him, to just give him a bit of extra support on the way upright.

The kiss is easy. He smiles as he stands, too, to walk Jesus to the door.

"That just means we would have met one way or another."
konstant: (Always Useful)

K gives him a quizzical look for the comment, but he's amused nonetheless. He closes the door behind Jesus and moves to clean up the kitchen.

It's a rough night for V from there, which means it's a rough night for K too. By the time he gets his friend to a point he can sleep again, K is too upset to try to sleep himself, and then he doesn't want to risk not knowing if V comes up hard and needs him.

So he's made it back to the couch and it's not that he forgot Jesus said he would be back today, but he has no idea or expectations for when, so he sinks into his thoughts with the television on low and his eyes unfocused through the corner of the room, expression uncharacteristically somber and unabashedly worried.
konstant: (A Little Sassy)

K is normally more alert as well, and certainly would have noticed anyone being any louder than Jesus; but not only is he trusted, but K is deep, deep in thought.

At his name though, he blinks and every emotion on his face goes away, drops back to careful neutral. Then he registers that it's Jesus and he softens a bit again.

"Hey, sorry. I didn't hear you come in," he offers as he uncurls from where he'd had his legs folded up underneath him.

By the time K has made it over to investigate the bag, it would be nearly impossible to tell he'd been in any kind of mood different from his usual only moments ago. He's only brought groceries back here once, but that's all it takes to recognize what's happening with a bag full of food.

He shakes his head, though. No, he's not okay by a long shot and K doesn't know how to help, either. He drops his voice so it pitches between the two of them. "Healing physically, but - he feels so deeply, and I don't know what kind of damage it did him."

"I've been trying -" The smallest of stress fractures in his voice and face, because he has; keeping a flow of food constantly is one of very few things he's been able to think of that might help, on the most basic level of keeping V's body going if nothing else.

As for himself, he's just forgotten, or been too preoccupied otherwise. "I just don't know enough, maybe." That isn't it and he knows that, but the end result is the same: he's all too happy to clear out of Jesus's way, to give him the kitchen space, spotless except for two cereal bowls from an attempt at breakfast soaking in the sink.

"I just don't know what to do with any of this," he says, still lingering close; he was going to watch regardless. He's a fast learner.

He's just never seen food like what's available here, and it had been a delight when he and V had brought a bag of groceries home and just done their best with it. Now it feels stressful, but he's relieved that regardless of what Jesus has it in mind to make, he at least has a plan of some kind. It means he has K's full attention.

"Everything in Los Angeles is either pre-packaged, pre-made, or a packet that gets dumped into boiling water."

K gives him a doubtful glance but doesn't argue; nothing here smells like he expects it to, even the noodles he does recognize. He smells it anyway.

"A little sweet," he tries, handing it back.

K will literally eat anything that's been handed to him at least once.

He takes the potato, rubbing his thumb over the rough skin, considering it. He sniffs it and says, "It smells like dirt." As for the other question: "I haven't disliked anything I've found here."
konstant: (Constant K)

[personal profile] konstant 2022-10-12 10:54 pm (UTC)(link)
K considers this. Then he holds out the potato.

"What is this called?"
