Not even close. I'm sayin' if yer gonna be so sure about what's true or not in this place, ya better back it up with more than just bared teeth and shaking fists. The less options ya give yerself, the more ya back yerself into a corner.
[Which, to be honest, is why he thinks Hiyori is struggling so much. Rinne too, in the opposite direction, when he doesn't know which one is the truest path to take. In the end, he chose the conventional one-- ironic, but only because he's yet to find a better path that doesn't have the consequences he's avoiding.]
Yer the one who decided to date 'im, not me. If ya find it that much of a burden, do you wanna break up with him?
.. does anyone know what's true or not? This place keeps messing 'round with us, so we can't do much else but fight against it. I'm not tryna back myself into a corner, but d'you believe everything at face value?
[ That's why he dislikes what people have been telling Hiyori. He can clearly tell it's bothering him. He'd have to be a complete idiot otherwise, but he knows Hiyori's feeding into it, and Jun's unsure what to do but bare his teeth and shake his fist.
It hits him, just how much everyone around him thinks it's a bad idea. Having a relationship fostered in a place where it shouldn't be, where anyone could come in and steal Hiyori away from him, is a daunting thought. How could anyone handle that? Not only that, he wants to be in a relationship. Waking up next to Hiyori each morning makes him the happiest person in the world as if life couldn't get any better. ]
Huh...? I don't ever wanna break up with Ohii-san. First of all, I'm not sayin' it's a burden. Yeah, that guy's annoying, needy, and demanding, and maybe there's something wrong with me, but I like where we're at. And second of all, I wanna keep taking care of Ohii-san for the rest of my life.
There's believin' things at face value, and there's choosin' the battles I'm willing to take. I got no reason to believe they're tellin' the truth or lyin', but I ain't just closing my options coz I don't wanna do a thing.
[But then, Rinne had always been that way. He had to do things that lowered his pride in order to get where he was, and while it sure made him jaded, it kept him surviving despite the harsh reality. It wasn't the best way to think and he knows it, and maybe-- maybe that's why he's annoyed.]
Then you two talk about shit properly. Yer problem's bigger than just not wantin' to screw other people for a possible scam.
So, what're you doing 'bout it then? Like would ya go up against the House if it came down to it?
[ It's not that Jun refuses to accept the truth, but that's why he finds himself in this predicament. His stubborn pride and deep-seated fear of physical contact are the root causes of this predicament. However, it's also due to him being an idol, and now he's worried about cheating on Hiyori. ]
Look, it's not gonna be easy talking 'bout it with Ohii-san. And I know that! Our problem's not gonna fix itself, but I'm just... so far in this shit.
[ And going against something he believes in just annoys him. ]
Junjun, yer hurtin' my feelings here. Ya sayin' ya don't know the answer to that until now?
[Yes. The answer is yes. He will in fact fight them, rather sneakily yet aggressively, as he always has with ES when they try to pull the wool over their eyes. He doesn't like being manipulated, after all.]
Well, if yer worried 'bout cheatin', maybe ya just need a third party who doesn't mind just watchin'.
[ … saying is how he wants to end it. Jun knows Rinne’s capabilities when it comes to fighting, he’s seen first-hand how deep his capabilities can go. So the answer is yes, Jun knows that for sure.
It’s the second thing that comes out of Rinne’s mouth that catches him off guard. Eve’s suite didn’t have a canopy surrounding their bed for nothing! (Though, it’s there to keep the House from watching.) ]
Look, Rinne-senpai, what you’re saying is sorta impossible. Ohii-san doesn’t want anyone watching… I don’t want anyone watching! Something like that is not gonna happen, even giving that sorta “performance” sounds all wrong.
[ What if you can’t get it up and you become the laughing stock of the casino!? Your name will be infamous as the person who has “stage fright” and it’ll follow wherever you go.
Never say never, Sazanamin. I ain't sayin' ya gotta be a P**nhub regular, but if ya trust someone who wouldn't mind watchin', ya might at least get their card. It ain't cheating if they ain't participating.
[He shrugs, but he won't push it further than that. He isn't exactly an exhibitionist himself, even if he does like to perform for a partner.]
[ What the heck is a P**nhub? His poor, innocent ears! ]
I dunno, 'cause what if I trust the person but Ohii-san doesn't? And vice versa...
[ He can't even question Rinne, because, of course, Rinne knows. Is there anyone here he trusts enough? Sure, maybe if it were Rinne or Leo, only due to them being from home. Would anyone want to watch them? Eve's fans certainly would, but who really cares about idols here? ]
Well, I mean... have ya ever had a third-party watch?
Never really asked one, but I guess if I wouldn't mind so long as everyone's in agreement.
--Which goes back to my point. Ya both talk about it, and pick someone ya both trust. Like I dunno... Ask Lion-kun. Betcha he'd be all for it.
[Surely Leo would find inspiration somewhere in all that sex to write music. Does that count as an orgasmic experience when Leo was into that? He isn't sure.]
Hmm, right. Guess I've gotta think 'bout it more...
[ Someone like Tsukinaga-senpai? Thinking about it, he'd be the safest bet. It's already difficult to trust anyone, let alone someone you may sleep with. ]
It sounds sorta crazy askin' Tsukinaga-senpai. D'ya have anythin' against it? 'Cause at the end of the day you'd be someone we trust.
[ And would Leo only want to do it because they asked, is Leo even into it? Jun has questions, some of which make him feel uneasy. ]
... Yer askin' me to watch ya beat yer meat or do the horizontal tango with Hiyori-chan?
[Jun, this is actually the nicest thing you have ever said to him here. Not that Jun isn't normally nice. but offering food is inferior to being told he was trusted.
Don't let Ohii-san hear you say that... but guess so? Uh, outta everyone here.
[ He's trying the nice thing now! Besides, when Jun thinks about it, not that he has at great length... Well, trusting anyone, is a lot more difficult. ]
Thinking 'bout it some more... I'd, uh, trust ya the most.
[ He blinks a few times, thinking about how he phrased it. Jun's fairly certain he hadn't meant this to come across as him "falling" for Rinne. Is he only pulling Jun's leg? ]
Those feelings are just for Ohii-san, Rinne-senpai. Don't think I'm 'boutta "fall" for anyone else.
[ Sure, they're surrounded by attractive idols daily, but finding someone attractive and forming feelings for them are entirely different. ]
Just bein' sure. Ya never know with a place like this.
[At least he wasn't saying it as an insult to Rinne. Hiyori would insult him without a second thought for that comment, but Jun was too nice in comparison. This is exactly why Rinne is tough on him.]
All right, well-- I ain't gonna lie, I'm touched ya think so highly of me. I might even cry~
