Thanks, I will be responsible.

(ah, a well-meaning grown-up. shin refrains from his actual response, that these? these will barely tickle his liver, not even blur so much of his vision, even if he did decide to drink everything tonight. not that shin can't be mean, far be it from him, but this poor man still finds it in his heart to give a teenager some advice late at night, when kim clearly would like nothing but to be anywhere else. guess he did dodge a bullet when he decided to definitely not work anything remotely similar. even his co-worker looks dead inside, but working in a state like that feels... well, people pay him for this. the least he can do is give at least a bit of effort. that looks like zero effort.

as kim speaks, shin tries to redirect himself, and he genuinely had made a decision that he thanks the other for. in fact, he was about to follow the instructions when he hears the voice he had just become familiar with chewing the coworker out. oh. so that's why he looked so done with life. well, here's for shin's small and rare actions of altruism, because he decides to wait.

once him resurfaces, shin's smoking his recent purchase, but it seems like kim has his own. all he can do is offer his oversized necklace of a lighter to him, as an offering.)


It's a lighter. Use it.

(and a pause later.)

Since your co-worker is a selfish son of a bitch, I thought you'd need a bit of beer more than me, so I waited to offer you some.
