Taehyung awoke to two soft brown ears draping down his torso. He rubbed his eyes, trying to see if it'd all just been a dream. But no, the hybrid on his chest was very real. His breaths were so quiet and cute, no one could help the smile it'd pull out of them.

He reluctantly shook the boy lightly, feeling bad about waking him up. "Kook, you should eat something." The ears lightly smacked his body as they twitched awake. Jungkook sat up and rubbed his eyes with two fists, yawning in the process.

"Taehyung?" He quietly mumbled, feeling around the bed with one hand and rubbing his eye with the other.

"I'm right here, Kookie." He said. Jungkook blinked the sleep out and reached for him. The thumping in Tae's chest was all too real for him. Why did he like him so much? Maybe he liked being sought out. He grabbed his hand and pulled him off the bed. The cane was handed to him and he hobbled along behind Taehyung into the kitchen. "What do you wanna eat?"

Jungkook perked up at the words. "Eat!"

Tae smiled with a small laugh. "Yes, eat. What do you want?"

"Want eat!" Jungkook grinned. He was proud that he'd learned, and remembered, new human words.

Tae sighed, not out of frustration, but just knowing communicating with the uninvited guest would get difficult. "Yes, Jungkook. Eat. What do you want to eat?"

Jungkook cocked his head, Tae's eyes averted to the brown ears for a second before returning to Jungkook's face. When Jungkook had cocked his head so quickly, the ears were whipped over and sat limply, sticking out due to the muscle. He decided it could wait for later, but his curiosity was growing. What did the ears do? Can he use them like a limb? If he cut one off, could he regenerate it like a lizard?

Jungkook's head remained titled as he tried to figure out what was happening. Why does he keep telling me to eat? What am I even supposed to eat? There's nothing being given to me right now, so why is he repeating instructions I physically cannot follow? He thought. Boy, humans were a lot dumber than he'd thought. Although, they were kind. He'd at least give them that.

"What....to eat? Kookie can no eat. No eat to eat for Kook."

Taehyung stood dumbfounded. "Slow down, I think I just forgot how to read." He sighed, trying to unscramble what was just said. No eat to eat. Hmm, he pondered, Does he mean there's....nothing in his hands...right now..that he can eat? "Do you want something to eat?"

There he goes again. Jungkook did his best not to roll his eyes. "Taehyung go, Jungkook fo......foll-low."

Taehyung shrugged. It was worth a shot. "Okay."

Jungkook smiled to himself. Look at him go! Speaking human wasn't as hard as he thought. Of course, it was excruciatingly difficult, but his (few) prior knowledge made him feel like a master. He used four words to instruct a human!

He hobbled to where Taehyung stood at his fridge. It was common knowledge that rabbits liked carrots. Right? Bugs Bunny is probably a God to them. I'm sure his judgement is what's best. That was never a thought Taehyung had expected to have. He shook his head and popped back into reality.

Out came a bag of baby carrots he held up for Jungkook. "Want this?" Jungkook nodded, and took a carrot from the bag. He smiled as he chewed, his lips pouting. Taehyung thought it was cute. He tried to hand him the bag but he received a head shake instead. Did he want to be hand fed? Taehyung held a carrot out for him, which Jungkook cautiously leaned closer to take a bite. He smiled again and seeing the smile while he chewed up close was driving Tae's blood pressure up.

Jungkook cocked his head, "Color..." He said, "Taehyung color.....head?"

Taehyung was confused and pulled his phone out to look in the camera. Oh. Jungkook meant that he was blushing. "Uh, yeah. That happens to humans sometimes." He didn't want to explain why. Jungkook just formed an 'o' with his mouth. Taehyung pulled out another carrot but Jungkook put his hands out and shook his head. "What?"

"No," Jungkook didn't want to eat more carrots. "Bad, too many, bad for you."

Taehyung began to understand it a little, "If you eat too many, it's bad?" Jungkook nodded. "Oh, alright. So, what else do you wanna eat?" Jungkook just smiled, he didn't understand the question. Tae sighed and pulled out some leftover vegetable stew. Jungkook curiously watched him pour some into a bowl and popped it into the microwave. He turned to his guest. "Let's teach you some new words, huh?" He pointed to the carrots. "This, is a carrot."

"Carrot?"

"Uh-huh, carrot." Tae nodded. Jungkook thumped his non-injured foot on the ground. The sound was sudden, just one 'thump'. But since his feet were just what appeared to be big, human feet, the sudden slap of skin against tile startled Taehyung. Meanwhile, Jungkook was unfazed and clapped happily with a smile. He shook off the stun from the sound and got back to trying to teach him new words. "This," he pointed to the microwave, "Microwave."

Jungkook took a few steps closer, "Buzz," he mimicked the sound and pointed at the machine, "Microwave?" When Taehyung nodded, he grinned and stomped his foot again. He must do that when he's happy.

Taehyung had a long night of research ahead of him.

He opened the microwave and placed the bowl on the kitchen island. With a spoon in hand, he lead Jungkook over to the soup. "Eat this." Jungkook sat down on a stool, with Taehyung's help. But just stared at the bowl. "What's wrong? You can eat it."

Jungkook turned to him and raised an eyebrow, "Eat?" He received a nod and with a shrug, he had his hands in a position to grab something, about to dunk them into the bowl.

"No, no, no, no, no!" Taehyung grabbed his wrists before he could dunk them. He used one hand to take the spoon from the bowl and pick up a spoonful. "See?" He lightly blew on the hot soup before moving it up to Jungkook's mouth. He just looked at Taehyung. So, Taehyung opened his mouth, "Ah," he said, and Jungkook followed suit.

In the spoon went and Jungkook closed his mouth, smiling around the spoon at the taste. "Mmm!" The spoon was pulled away while he chewed the food. He danced in his seat.

"You like it?" He kept chewing and nodded. "Good, I'm glad." Taehyung had never thought too highly of his cooking so he felt pride in his leftover soup. He pointed at the food. "Vegetable soup."

Jungkook swallowed the food in his mouth, "Be-bejeta.....ble s'up?"

Taehyung held in his chuckle, knowing it wasn't nice to laugh at. He shook his head, "Veg-a-ta-ble, soup." He enunciated.

"Be-ja-ta-ble s'op?"

Taehyung tilted his hand over and up in a 'so-so' motion. "Eh, close enough." He picked up another spoonful and paid a bit too much attention to the way Jungkook's lips wrapped around the utensil. He tried to shake the thought and just smiled fondly as Jungkook chewed, happily dancing in his seat.
