‘Jimin? Jimin, what are you doing? It’s not funny.’
Jimin is not responding though. In fact, he doesn’t give any indication he’s listening at all. Jimin’s posture, his actions are the kind of calm that can only mean trouble and Taehyung instinctively backs away from the murderous aura around him. There’s no trace of the Jimin that laughed and made elaborate plans to prank Namjoon. It’s also a hundred times scarier than all the times Taehyung has seen Jimin choke someone with his chains and smile about it. Maybe it’s because this time Taehyung isn’t entirely sure the desire to kill is not aimed at him.
‘Have I told you I had a baby sister once? She was so cute,’ some of the Jimin Taehyung knows makes its way into Jimin’s voice ‘She was strong, too. She was going to be so powerful when she grew up, I was kinda jealous.’
Jimin reaches in his bag and takes a tiny box the size of a matchbox. He takes something out of his eyes – lenses? When did Jimin start wearing lenses? He takes them out slowly, one by one, and puts them in the box. He still has his back towards Taehyung.
‘I was out at the time. When I got home the house was painted red. You know, I was able to suppress almost everything with time, except for her. I can imagine it so clearly’ Jimin has gone so still Taehyung isn’t even sure if he’s breathing. ‘She was still in her bed, and her sheets were red and her eyes were gone. That’s the PG-13 version, anyway. So, you can see why this new treasure hunt is sort of… sensitive for me.’
Jimin finally turns around and every suspicion Taehyung’s mind came up with in the past three minutes is confirmed when Jimin’s scarlet eyes stare calmly at him. Jimin’s chains clatter around him and Taehyung tries really hard to remind himself this is still his possibly-more-than-friend and Jimin doesn’t really want to hurt him. The surprise must have shown on his face, though, because Jimin’s chains clatter a little louder and his eyes narrow.
‘What’s wrong, Taehyungie? Do you want my eyes too?’
