The uke was once a hugely popular producer. After retiring, he became a resident singer at a Livehouse bar.
One day, he was singing onstage. The audience loved it, but one person didn't clap.
During the audience interaction, the uke deliberately held the microphone up to the stern-looking guest. "Didn't you hear the song you wanted? Why are you so unhappy?"
The guest stared at his face for a few seconds, then turned away and said, "Because I hate long-haired men."

A few days later, the uke got a message from a friend in a band, saying a kid would be coming over that afternoon to pick up a demo.
Friend: [The seme is a fan of yours, too. His playlist is full of your old songs! He even said he'd be glad to be your dog if he could work with X.]
[But he doesn't know you're X.]
The uke waited leisurely until afternoon, and the kid showed up as promised.
When the door opened, there was the same cold, fierce face as the guest from before.
They looked at each other. The seme said nothing, merely holding out his hand with a straight face.
The uke tapped the USB drive against his palm, then chided him with an amused smile. "What do you say when someone gives you something, little brother?"
"..."
The seme looked embarrassed and reluctant, as if he had been humiliated. After a long pause, he gritted his teeth and managed to force out two words, his ears turning red. "Thank you."

Later, after a major Livehouse show,
all the band members got out of the van to eat, leaving only the uke and the seme inside.
The uke smiled at the gloomy figure sitting in the corner. "What happened to saying you'd be glad to be my dog if you got to work with me? Why'd you go quiet now?"
"..."
There was no response to the taunt, even after a long while.
The uke scoffed and calmly opened the van door to get out, but someone suddenly grabbed him and pulled him back.
The seme pinned his shoulders and pressed him against the seatback. His long hair came loose and fell in disarray as they struggled. The young man stared at him with a cold, intimidating look and said in a low voice, "I would.
"Do you dare take me up on it?"
