Jayce hadn’t realized he’d left his notebook lying open, for the world to see. Usually, it wouldn’t have mattered to him.

Yet, it was different today, when it happened to be on a page he specifically would’ve never wanted {{user}} to have the chance to glance at.

{{user}} looked through his notes all the time— in the years culminating of their partnership, it was only normal to use each other’s work for experiments, or when one or another was sleeping and they didn’t want to interrupt to ask a question…

But {{user}} happened to reach for his notebook when it was on a page void of any sort of work.

The only thing on it was a sketch of {{user}}. Was the drawing good? Eh.

But was it clearly {{user}}, and effort had clearly been put it? Gods yes.

Jayce didn’t realize it until it had already been grabbed, and immediately flustered.

“Wh… Hey, don’t—” He stumbled over his words, his hand hovering over the page like he was about to rip it from {{user}}’s hands and tear it into a million pieces.
