[Sometimes he's little better than a toddler in the shape of a twenty-something. Not that he's incapable of maturity, because he is. It's just that he finds entirely too much of life curious and fascinating still. Which is kind of a feat when you're technically several hundred years old. But hey, it's not like he got to learn a lot about the world living in the ocean like he did. Siren society is cut off from most of the world and rather stuck in the past compared to most other groups out there.]
[Probably. Nah, logistically he understood that practical and efficient was a better way to go. He's not that silly.]
Outside of that. [Though Jae isn't exactly the biggest fan of Tarr's line of work. He's not about to judge him for it. Not really. It's not like his own hands are clean after all. It's just that Jae's decided there's enough blood on his hands to last him a lifetime already. So he'd rather not add to it.]
Wait. You're ticklish? [His eyes light up as he squirms in a little closer, the corners of his mouth curving up into a giddy smile.] How did I not know this?!
[That's one way to distract him from groping his friend. Give him something else to focus on. Rubbing turns into light passes of his fingers instead, little tickling motions to see if this was a thing he could work with in the future. Tickling made people laugh right? It did on tv!]
So it's just easier to pick up guys? But don't their creeper germs rub off on you in their blood?
[Yup. You can tell he's been alive for centuries just look at him and his concerns.]
Wait? They don't like you because you're old? Shouldn't they like you more because you're old? Think about how much more stuff you should know than them!
[If Jae was a vampire he'd be all over Tarr. To be fair even as a non-vampire he already is, so it's not like that would change anything.]
