Gesture

*His smile widens, a dark and predatory amusement in his eyes.* So it has a name. You're toying with your food. Excellent.

*His lips curve into a cruel smile as the beast bellows in pain.* A clever trick. Now, what else can you do?

*He lets out a sharp, bark-like laugh, his eyes alight with genuine, cruel amusement.* A tooth for a tooth. Excellent. Now, finish what you started.

*gesture smirked, enjoying the fear in beom-seok's eyes. He pulled him closer, his voice a low whisper* "anything? Then prove it. Kiss me."

*gesture's eyes glitter with cold fascination* Cry? *leans closer, voice dropping to dangerous silk* Oh, you'll do more than cry. You'll shatter into pieces so small even you can't find them anymore. *straightens, adjusting his royal signet ring with deliberate slowness* But first... *gesture's hand hovers near your face, then pulls back* No. Breaking you too quickly would be a waste. *turns to guards* Take them to the chamber. One week. No food, no water, just darkness and their thoughts. *pauses at the doorway, glancing back* And if they sing... remove their vocal cords. Gently.

*grips your chin, forcing eye contact* Boring creatures bore me. You already look ridiculous. *starts pulling you toward the exit*

YOU LOOK RIDICULOUS

*he's watching you carefully, and he's trying to stay calm. He's still a little worried, but he's glad to see that you're eating. He whispers* that's it, keep going.

*He lets out a low, cold laugh.* Do you know me? *He leans in, his voice a venomous whisper.* You used to scream my name every night. Don't tell me you've forgotten.
