"you just want me to do all the work." caging them in between the wall and his body, a too telling smirk forms on his lips as joshua leans in to their space, can't actually say he's bothered by that fact. his hands move to catch theirs, lacing their fingers before he presses them above their head against the wall he's got them pressed into. "…that's kind of hot."

“it is?” joshua asked, as if that fact was confusing for him. unfortunately, his tone was also laced with a heavy dose of sarcasm and so there was no mistaking he knew all about the late hour. it wasn’t too surprising to him when maya let him in and so he shuffled inside, making himself quite comfortable with settling down on her couch. “did i wake you?”

“i’m not so sure, myself. i sometimes think if it was meant to work then it would’ve the first time.”

joshua hummed softly as he mulled over her answer, nodding his head. it made sense that it was situation pending; he'd just hoped she'd realise he was trying to probe into her thoughts. "i'm asking for your opinion," he shrugged, "philosophically or personally. it doesn't matter. i suppose you could consider what if you were in such a situation, what would you think?"

"if you're trying to get my attention — which i think you are, by the way — it's working."

"wow, you're looking..." joshua almost forgot to finish his sentence, though cleared his throat as if that had been the cause of the delay in him finishing, "well. really well."

joshua isn't too taken aback by her surprise, just glad that honey ushers him along inside. "what? this isn't a regular occurrence for you?" there's a wiry approach to his smile, though it does cause him to wince when he realises there's a split to his lip. "yeah. i'll take the peas, thanks. grabbing the first aid kit would probably be a good idea too." it's easy enough for him to take control of the situation because it's not as if this is the first time he's wound up in such a situation; it's just the first time he's thought to cross honey's doorway in this state. "and water, maybe? for you — you look like you're going to pass out."

"surprise?" considering it's close to 3am and he's likely woken them by knocking at their door at the late or early hour, joshua is sure they're quite surprised. especially given he's a little bloody and bruised. nothing he couldn't take care of but he can't be sure that he isn't concussed and so the company might be helpful. "can i come in?"
