We need to talk. Face-to-face. No bullshit.
[ Even if Hana hadn't told him what had gone on that night, something was up. Didn't help that there were other factors. For once, he was listening to what Jesse was saying about the woman he had been sleeping with - that despite her apparent connection to the identity of his father, there were too many unknown factors in play.
The fact that she threatened Hana while they were out that night at the Last Shot and the conversation they had prior to this. Well.
It was an eye-opener. ]

[ While he may have joked about having notecards before when talking to Taeseok a few weeks back, he doesn't have them per se, but at least a small sheet of paper with the main points he wanted to talk about scribbled on it. He glances over it one last time before he takes a deep breath and squares his shoulders, pocketing it as he makes his arrival at the penthouse known.
Now or never. ]
Now or never. ]
[ .... shit.
Noah blinks in surprise at her outfit, but shakes his head - nope, he's got a mission, don't let her distract you -
Funnily enough the voice in his head that's trying to get him back on track sounds a bit like Jesse's. Made sense, considering the glutton demon was one of the first people to point out how too good to be true everything was so far.
He takes a breath before walking inside, very pointedly trying to keep his gaze away from her while he attempts to collect himself some more. Focus. ]

[ There's a sharp inhale as his body stiffens - and he clenches his jaw and swallows hard. Should've known the first time he actually wants to talk about something serious this happens.
He nods, slowly - and reaches to pry her arms off from around him before he whips around. ]
Wh - [ No, keep going - ] Why did you threaten Hana the other night.

No shit you shouldn't have.
[ His expression relaxes only slightly when she touches his face - but he knows there's something else he needs to address. ]
And if Hana wants to get away from me for her own safety, because she'd rather not deal with potentially being killed just because of this, then I'm not going to be mad at her for that. I'd do the same if I were in her position.
[ He's almost snarling at this point, lip curled back and baring his teeth in a more animalistic gesture - ]
But if you even dare to try and go after her because of any of this, because I caught wind of what you did to her and because I'm not going to stand for you threatening other people in some fucked-up attempt to keep me close -
I will fight back.

[ The kid's leveled up, we're so proud of him ;;
He does seem to be a bit more relaxed now that he's gotten this out of his system, but he still hasn't made any move to touch Ammy outside of taking her hands off from around his waist earlier. ]
How do I know that you'll actually do it.

[ Part of him wants to comfort her - after all, this is probably the angriest he's really been - but at the same time, he knows that in this case he is justified in that anger to an extent. Though he is fighting himself not to move. ]
... fine.
But what do you really want from this? You could have probably any guy you wanted - and yet you're so determined to have me stay. Why. It's not just for the sex, either.
You helped me find out where my father's been, sure. And I am grateful for that. But you also asked me to take his place. That you want me to become the guard for a god.
What do you really want.

[ Noah watches her for a few more moments before he shakes his head. ]
Maybe you should figure that out first before anything else.
[ Because yeah, the sex is amazing, he won't deny that at all. It's most of why he had gone along with everything so far. ]
I need time to talk with the old man finally anyway. I've found him, but I need to ask him a few things. Maybe after that, I can finally give you my answer.

[ MOM, NO....
Because she's a goddess past mom and present (future?) mom don't really look all that different, but present (future?) mom never tried to dress sexy for him at any point in his life. She dressed very much like a lady who had business to take care of, and not a lady who wanted to seduce her own offspring.
He has no idea what he's in for when he follows the receptionists instructions up to Ammy's room and stands outside her door waiting for her to answer. ]
