I know it, but I still can't imagine how some people are unaffected by such a sweet face.
[Billy cups Jina's face and rubs her cheeks, which only makes her tail wag faster. Despite the dog breath, it's worth getting that reaction out of her.]
I could never bring myself to eat dog meat back in Korea, so I'd always go hungry whenever we had it.
[When he was a boy, it was too disturbing to think of how some of the dogs running around his village might end up in someone's meal.]
Billy. [He takes Jim's hand, flashing a small smile when he feels Jina's paw brush against their hands as they shake. When it ends, Billy's the one who obliges her with belly rubs and Jina immediately falls on her side to give him more access. He smiles before casually asking:] So what brought you out this late? Couldn't sleep?
[That's why Billy was out with Jina, at least. The nightmares about his death had become less frequent by now, but he just couldn't shake off the wariness of falling asleep. Rather than lie awake in bed, he chose to put his nervous energy to use. Walking helped tucker Jina out for bed, too, so it was a win-win.]
