[ When Jou hears his voice, he slides his way inside. A part of him feels a little sick at himself, that he's sunk so low that this means nothing to him. Where'd his pride go?
He might have been kicking and screaming at him before, but as much as it was annoyance at him, it was annoyance at everything else. Everything in his life that had sunk him down so low, brought him up, and then dropped him again. He swallows and shuts the door behind him, locking it as a courtesy. He keeps his voice low. ]
Listen. I don't plan to owe you for... any of this. So I'm gonna do something for you. You don't... have to do a thing. I'll do it all just-- bare with me and enjoy it. If you don't, I'll stop, you just tell me... so... y'know, you can just stay there, alright?
[ His voice tapers off, a lot smaller than its ever been around Seto Kaiba, but it takes a lot of his gumption to just be here, ready to do this. He walks across the room and sits on the edge of the bed, not looking at him. ]
