[When Hao grabs his wrist, Hyunsu is suddenly acutely aware of the scars on his arm. He doesn't usually worry about them that much anymore, so he didn't think to cover them when he was getting dressed. But now he's in an arcade for the first time in years and for just a moment he feels vulnerable and human again.

He puts the soda and doritos down next to the cheetos as Hao talks.]
That still seems pretty recent.
[More recent than Hyunsu, certainly. Though maybe he shouldn't rush to admit that to Hao.
