It isn't every day that one meets people like that, and while he is hardly a battle maniac obsessed with proving himself, a part of him does want to learn more about this one.

His interest doesn't miss the fact that he's being scanned, and he returns the favor in kind, attempting to discern Joonghyuk's surface thoughts and emotions.]
