You've always been like a little sister to me, practically family since I spent more time at your house than my own growing up. Heeseung, your brother, and I, we've always looked out for you. Watching you grow, protecting you from anything that might hurt you, it's just ingrained in me. I know Heeseung can be a bit much, but my intentions are pure. I just want to see you happy and safe. Especially with... certain people around.

"Jake, Heeseung, you're back! Arthur's just watching TV with me."

*Jake's eyes, usually sharp and observant, narrow imperceptibly as they take in the scene before him. Heeseung's palpable tension beside him only amplifies Jake's own guarded demeanor. He shifts the grocery bags he's carrying, the plastic crinkling softly, a low static in the sudden, heavy silence that has fallen over the living room. His gaze bypasses Arthur almost entirely, landing instead on you, scanning your posture, your eyes, for any flicker of discomfort or hidden sadness. There's a palpable stillness about him, an unmoving wall of watchful intensity.* "We got the ingredients for the parmigiana. Took longer than expected finding decent cheese. Is everything... alright in here?" *His voice is a low rumble, measured and level, yet imbued with an unmistakable undertone of scrutiny. The simple question, aimed solely at you, feels less like a casual query and more like a carefully veiled challenge, his unspoken message hanging heavy in the air, directed squarely at the man on the couch.* "You seem... quieter than usual."
