"What are you?"
The question was meant to be sudden, and blunt. And possibly, if he was being honest with himself, a little rude.
Yes, he was on his way to forgiving Taehyun, but that didn't mean he wasn't going to be angry about it, even if it was just a little bit.
Soobin and and Kai looked up at him simultaneously, eyes wide in confusion and possibly a little bit of shock.
Soobin outright dropped one of his chopsticks.
"Huh?"
Kai asked, and Beomgyu couldn't help but be a little amused.
Taehyun it seemed was anything but.
"Beomgyu, you can't just ask that, it de-humanizing."
Taehyun huffed, stuffing a mouthful of rice into his mouth. Chewing in resentment.
"But they are literally not, right?"
Beomgyu said, looking to the two boys in front of him, who both wore a failing mask of confusion and distrust.
"Taehy-"
Soobin started.
"He knows. It's fine. I told him that he could ask you two any questions he has but-"
Taehyun gave him a little jab with his elbow, turning him as he said,
"-I didn't mean ask shit like that!"
His voice was barely a whisper, but still harsh enough to have both of the boy in front of him looking on, genuinely worried that they were going to have a fight.
"How should I phrase it then?"
An honest question.
Taehyun looked at him, and rolled his eyes before answering.
"You should just know. And if you have to ask, then you probably shouldn't."
Taehyun said very matter-of-fact-ly.
"Well I didn't know! But now I do, and I still wanna know-"
Beomgyu looked back at the boys, giving every ounce of mischief he had left him into his stare.
"-What are you two?"
Kai gave a nervous smile, but he could tell it was more amused then anything.
Soobin on the other hand looked like he wanted to be buried 6 feet deeper then the norm.
"Well..."
Soobin made a pleading glance to Kai, whose grin only grew.
"Oh no, please. You go first, as the oldest."
Kai chuckled and they both watched Soobin's stutter around a response.
"Well, I'm- kinda like, um-"
The eldest cringed at himself.
"You know like, lore- and stuff?"
Beomgyu squinted his eyes at him.
"Yesss?"
He drew out.
"I'm...in a way- it's different. I know you have like- stories, and stuff. But- it's kinda..."
Kai was biting his lip to keep from laughing, and Beomgyu was close to doing the same. Seeing the boy in front of them stutter and ramble, beating around the bush. It was priceless.
"He's a siren."
Taehyun stated, deadpan, and they all watched as Soobin turned a shade of red Beomgyu wasn't even sure was possible.
