After Big's death, the main family sends a new bodyguard to Kim, every week. Kim doesn't care. They're all faceless drones to him. Big was useful because he was snoopy. But with Ken's betrayal, Kim isn't ready to trust any faceless bodyguard anymore.
He doesn't notice any of them. Not really.
Not until the one with the glasses shows up.
Arm.
He's attentive. He's smart. He fixes Kim's computer and does a lot of tech stuff.
Which has Kim thinking.
"Who's behind the MansionofMen website?" Kim asks one day, as the tray in Arm's hand slips and falls.
"Sir?" he asks, turning around, adjusting his glasses.
"You're I.T, right?"
"Yes, sir."
"So you must have an idea who does what, and where, in our system, yes?"
"I... I-uh-I-"
Kim's face grows stern. He'd been asking because he was idle, but now he wants to know.
"The site doesn't open unless you're on our network. I know. I've tried opening it at school, but it doesn't work. Which means that you must know about it. You must have control over it. You, or someone else, who works in I.T."
Arm clasps his hands in front of himself and bows.
"I'm sorry, Sir. I meant no disrespect. It was just a little fun project. I didn't mean for it to get out of hand."
Kim narrows his eyes at Arm.
"Are you saying this is your doing?"
"It was just a hobby, Sir."
Kim can't fault him for that. Everyone needs a hobby. Besides, it's not like it's causing any problems. It's all in good fun.
"Don't worry about it," Kim says, going back to his books.
•••
The next week, Kim goes for a party where a guy attacks him, wrapping his hands around Kim's neck and pressing Kim into the couch. It isn't until Kim has punched him and pushed him to the ground that Kim remembers that the guy had been trying to kiss him.
"What the fuck?" the guy yells at Kim, surprised that Kim would react violently.
"Get the fuck out of here," Kim says, snapping his fingers at the retreating, unhappy man.
Two weeks later, that exact scenario is featured in a story that puts it as something that happened to Kinn.
Which wouldn't be weird, except for the fact that Arm wasn't the bodyguard with Kim, at the party. The only person to have witnessed the altercation, was none other than Pol.
