Does it matter?

[ His own gaze remains fixed on Yi Sang for the moment, staring him down in his usual vaguely unsettling fashion. ]

I'd like to know first -- what if I did find my position here to be precarious, Mr. Yi Sang? Why do you wish to know?

[poans]

[On this, Yi Sang is far from cowed. Instead of reacting to the stare, he lowers his head to resume chipping away at the ice cream with another spoonful of the stuff.]

Should your alleged disinterest jeopardize your place in the game . . . then the trajectory of a date could change to revise that perception.

[phenomerom]

[ And here, he's used to being told he's hard to read. Rom feigns a thoughtful hum as he fishes up another half-hearted spoon of ice cream. ]

Correct. But a date is not a one-man affair. This trajectory could be difficult to change on my own.

[poans]

[Yi Sang, if nothing else, is self-aware enough of his passivity to where he'll take (almost) any course presented.]

Whatever you do, I shall follow.

[phenomerom]

But follow only?

[ He points at Yi Sang across the table with his spoon. ]

I don't know if that would constitute a good date, Mr. Yi Sang! After all, an employee can follow their boss' command, too, perhaps while wishing death upon them the whole time. To follow only might indicate a level of disinterest, don't you think?

[poans]

[Pointing is rude . . . ]

Then what do you propose?
