[ ; all he can do scoff with amusement and shake his head ] Really, you did? [ ; he tries to look over her shoulder to see if she's doing exactly that right now - stalking Gong Yoo on the internet ] I don't get it. [ ; he adds, snorting out laughter. he understands that Gong Yoo is even more popular these days because of that drama but he still.. really didn't get it. maybe because hes a guy? ] What does it get you.. liking his pictures.. and positing on his fancafe? [ ; scratches his head - even as the words leave his lips he realizes that's a little hypocritical considering he's a rookie idol who enjoys every single comment his fans makes for him on his own group's fancafe, but for some reason he can't imagine Gong Yoo doing the same thing ] Isn't he probably really very busy?

[ ; he lets out a soundless chuckle; he appreciates her obvious attempt at making him feel better - not that it was all that necessary; it's true that he knows he debuted a little late - and a lot of his fellow rookies make him feel old. even within his own group there's that feeling, what with the seven year difference between him and the maknae. still, he tries, for the most part, not to let it bother him. at least until it becomes obvious with the way they acted - or even just the references they would make in a normal conversation ] ...That's true. Four years. [ ; he chuckles again, this time with sound, while his eyes disappear into his trademark crescents ] I'm young at heart, right? [ ; he comments playfully, trying to make light of the atmosphere as he nudges her gently on the side ]

(* jaehyun had read the joke somewhere online - maybe on a joke site? or a pun site, at the very least. sometimes, when he's bored, this is what he does online, on his phone. sehun just happened to be there when he remembered one of the lines that made him laugh -- he pauses at first, expecting sehun to laugh, stupid as the joke is, but the same aged male goes on, cracking his own joke, and son jaehyun is the one cracking up obnoxiously ) That's true - he should get some sort of medal for his excellence, rain or shine, through sleet and snow!

( * at first jaehyun has absolutely no idea what sehun is talking about. he'd picked up the devil horns headband after seeing it lying around in the lobby of the fnc building - he assumes it might belong to one of the female staff members, or maybe even aoa's - it had been lodged against the side of the couch after all and who knows how long it's been there ) Ha? ( * he reaches up to touch the thing sehun was pointing at - he'd placed it on his head on a whim, and now he simply pokes at the so called horns ) A little? I know? I don't know?

His face falls at the accusation - was it really him? Truthfully, he doesn’t remember. He’d been out with a friend - Taehyun, of all people - and sure enough the two of them had several drinks. Maybe, more than several. Jaehyun had woken up that morning with a major hangover and bits and pieces of the previous night missing from his memory. He'd blame his best friend, but Taehyun had decidedly needed those drinks. “Okay, so - “ He cringes, the wrinkles on his face appearing not because he’s overtly happy for once, but because hes confused and worried. “Pretend it was maybe me - what did I say in the messages?”

(* he scoffs in return, even making a point of reaching over to pat the younger female's head as if she's a young child, instead of an actual teenager ) I wasn't even born in the 80's-- have they not taught basic arithmetic in your grade at school yet? (* he's teasing, of course, and it's obvious with the way his face is all lit up with a big grin ) How do I even owe you any of these things? Do they teach extortion in elementary school these days?!

"Ah, hyung!" With a loud groan, Jaehyun quickly buckles himself into his seat. It's not as if this little action will especially help, because it's not even Seungjun's driving ability that's in question here--but more the fact that, like he'd mentioned, he's driving without a current license. "Why did you forget to renew--?!" He's practically yelling, but he's also laughing at the same time. "What if the cops suddenly pull us over?!" It's an absurd scenario, but for some reason he feels that it's actually possible, despite the very short drive they were taking.
