@✦kim namjoon Jungkook listens as the other explains what he means. A place for littles and caregivers? A place where he won't have to hide who he really is? It almost sounds too good to be true but he really needs a place like that. He needs a place where he won't be judged if he slips into little space. And the fact that he promises to call Jungkook a cab and send him home if he's uncomfortable, helps as well.

"Okay. I could use a place like that. Thank you...." That's when he realizes that he doesn't even know the man's name yet.

@✧jeon jungkook [H] Namjoon notices the young biting his lip. He finds it beyond adorable. And he also thinks he has an idea of what he's thinking. If a stranger were to approach Namjoon with an offer to "take him someplace", he'd be skeptical as well. How is he going to make this less creepy?

"It's a place that I live," Namjoon says carefully. "But, it's more like a boarding house for people...like us. Littles and caregivers. And, yes, I am a caregiver. If you come with me, I can show you around. If you're not in the market for a place to stay, you can always just come to visit. We'll take public transportation all of the way there. And if ever you feel uncomfortable, I'll call you a taxi and send you on your way. What do you say?"

@✦kim namjoon Jungkook isn't used to people knowing that he's a little. He's kept it hidden from his friends and family in fear of being judged. So, this stranger seeing him with the book in his hand, an obvious telltale sign that he is into the lifestyle, makes him more nervous than he already was. That nervousness fades a bit when the other asks him about the book. He seems just as nervous asking Jungkook about it which makes him wonder again if he is a little or a caregiver. He has to be one or the other to know that his question could be inappropriate.

Jungkook chews on his bottom lip as he gives the other time to gather his thoughts it seems. The question doesn't catch him off guard but the offer to take him someplace does. He doesn't know this man at all. How does he know it's safe.

"I....I'm a little." He answers softly. "And what kind of place are you talking about?" He asks.

@✧jeon jungkook [H] Namjoon curses himself in his head. What was he thinking? Obviously, it's a personal matter. Namjoon, being apart of the lifestyle, knows it's not something most would like to be advertised to the general public. And when he takes in the young man's meek appearance and mortified reaction he feels the need to curse himself even more.

All of this aside, he's still intrigued. Is he a Little? Does he even know what he's picked up?

No, he has to. It isn't exactly the type of reading one picks up by chance. Guinness Book of World Records? Sure. Breakfast Around the World? Maybe. But, a book on the ABDL community and age-play? No.

"Um, I'm sorry if this seems inappropriate." Namjoon clears his throat, trying to organize his words. "But, is that a curiosity read? Or, are you doing research or...What I'm trying to ask is, are you a Little? Because if you are, there's a place I'd like ti take you."

@✦kim namjoon (hope it's okay that he's kinda struggling with being a little right now because he doesn't have anyone to take care of him if he slips into little space.)

It had been a long day for Jungkook. Or at least it felt like it. He had spent most of it in his room looking up information about age-play. He'd known he was a little for quite some time but hadn't really had time to delve into it. Uni took up most of his time, leaving little time for anything else. But now that he was on break he wanted to learn more about it. He'd slipped a couple of times when he was by himself and it had scared him to the point that he had been forcing himself to remain big. But it had been stressing him out recently. So, he had decided he needed to go to the book shop to find some books to help him understand it better. He figured if he was better educated about it, then he could have things prepared in the event that he slipped again.

He hesitates a moment outside the shop, chewing on his bottom lip out of nervousness. Taking a deep breath, he opened the door and stepped inside. He was so focused on finding the right section that he didn't notice the other male watching him. He went straight over to the section he needed and searched for the book he'd seen online. He found it fairly quickly and picked it up to look through it a bit before buying it. He's so engrossed in the book he doesn't notice the other male coming closer.

When he hears a voice read the name of the book he's holding, he blinks and looks up at the other male, doe eyes wide as he takes in the other's appearance. His cheeks tint pink because this...handsome man is looking over to see what he is reading.

He closes the book and holds it against his chest, waiting to see what the other is going to say about it. Does he know what age-play is? Is he a little too? Or is he possibly a caregiver? His curiosity is piqued but he's too shy to ask.

@✧jeon jungkook [H] On his way home from the bank, Namjoon drops into the book shop. He exchanges greetings with the friendly shopkeeper before wandering over to the reference section. He's had a half-finished sketch just wasting away in his art notebook for about a week and a half now. He figures it's time to grab some inspiration, finally trash that sketch, and actually start and finish something new.

While he's thumbing through some of the books with lazy curiosity, Namjoon can't help but notice when a young man strolls into the shop. He's quite handsome. Namjoon can't possibly call himself human if he doesn't stop to steal glances at the attractive stranger...which he does.

The young wanders over to a particular section that Namjoon knows so well he actually shudders a bit. No,...it can't be. Call him a Nosy Nelly, but he drops what he's doing to wander over to that particular section as well. He hopes he's being as discreet as he wants to be when he stops just short of being able to see what book the young man has picked up. He walks over to the opposite shelf under the pretense of checking out one of the bindings. He picks up a random one. Doesn't really matter what it is. His focus is on stretching his neck so he can see what book is in the young man's hands. When reads the title, his heart nearly stops.

"A Guide To Anything and Everything Age-Play."

And that's the moment Namjoon realizes he just said that...out loud.
