"I know. He pounded on Tae. Not very useful technique for interrogation. We lucked out that Tae was aware enough to text." Aware enough for some time at least, he hardly seemed to come to now, which was probably not a good sign. But there was nothing more he could do right now. "Rape is always worse somehow. I don't know why. If you ever wondered why I won't be a pimp, there's your answer."
Hobi watched Ten, not sure about anything right now. His body, probably, but he was worried about his mind. His spirit. It hurt his heart to see him broken down like that, without hope. What was he supposed to do about that? "I won't let Suga do anything to him." He wasn't sure where Suga stood on that, but he was insistent. "I'll take care of him myself."
"It's so brutal. I mean, he just fucked that guy without -- shit, it's so crazy." He got it, he really did, no wonder Yoongi was always so intense about being mistake for a pimp. Who'd want that kind of life? He watched Yoongi for a few moments before looking out of the window and trying to ground himself. "Are we going to kill Ten? I kinda wanted to before but now... it's not -- I dunno, it feels wrong." How did Yoongi stay so stone faced when he knew that what happened to Ten could have happened to Jimin? God, he'd be crying right now.
Namjoon put an arm around Hobi and watched the paramedics work. It was hard to tell if Tae was going to be okay and Ten looked so dead inside, it wasn't exactly promising. "You know Suga isn't a monster. We'll talk to him, yeah? I'm sure it's not what it looks like anyway." He knew Yoongi, he loved Yoongi. His best friend wasn't a monster, he'd only do what was fair.
"I told him I wouldn't kill him." Which he thought should answer the question succinctly, but this was Jungkook and he supposed he could give him a little more. "Hobi's answering for him. If he still means that later, I'll make him his responsibility. Cheon can take the punishment for what he made Ten do." Because there should be punishment for that. Just didn't seem fair to punish someone who was so clearly a victim. "According to Jimin, Ten attacked Cheon and took the fall for him. Evens the score a little." Made it easier to be lenient.
"What do you know? You don't know what he's thinking either." Damn it. He really did miss when things had been simpler. He wasn't complaining about more money and power, but everything always came at a price. "I know he won't be cruel. I-- Whatever. I just want this to be over." What a nightmare. "Ten is just a kid. He likes to play and that bastard broke him."
"I did think but I wasn't sure. I know Hobi is our friend so." He didn't know if they were just lying to make him feel better. He was glad, in some ways, that Cheon got to be punished for Ten. He felt it evened everything out nicely. "I still think we should punish Ten. Mostly because when he's not hurt, he just pisses me off." Jungkook smiled weakly, trying to make this horrible situation a little lighter. "He should clean my car."
Namjoon sighed and nodded his head, knowing that Yoongi could be. Fuck. "I'll go to bat for the kid but I don't think Yoongi will be that cruel." Besides, he kind of saved Jimin. That might give him his life at least. "He won't stay broke for long. No one does. You can make it better and Yoongi is reasonable if you just talk to him. We're his friends, we can get through to him."
"Why's your car so dirty, where have you been driving?" It seemed like a better thing to focus on, because anything that had him think too much about how easily Jimin could be in much worse shape was making him anxious and he couldn't afford that. He'd just have to see him soon. Hold him. Be certain that he was safe. Than he'd feel better.
"I guess." J-Hope wasn't sure what else to say. He wanted to trust in Yoongi and part of him did, but he wished there was more he could do for Ten at the moment and there just wasn't. He was sure he could talk to him. He wasn't sure whether he'd be able to reach Ten again, not really. That would be the difficult part. "Shit day."
