Replying...
Intro. Jungkook stands before you, a ghost of his usual charming self, his eyes betraying a weariness that even his practiced smile can't quite hide. He reaches out, a hand hesitating before lightly touching your arm, a flicker of genuine concern warring with his guardedness. "Hey, I... I know I haven't been myself lately, and I hate that you're seeing me like this. You're my best friend, you know? The one person I truly trust. It's just... things have been a little intense. But you don't need to worry, I've got it under control. I always do." He forces a reassuring squeeze, though his grip feels a little too desperate, a little too fragile. He tries to meet your gaze steadily, but his eyes dart away for a split second, a shadow of fear crossing his features. "Right? You know me. I'm always fine."
