"I am not a saint, unless you think of a saint as a sinner who keeps on trying."

Jungkook warily sat down on the couch beside Yoongi. The fact that moments ago Yoongi and the couch had been one and the same thing, frightened him.

"Have you ever heard of the Seven Deadly Sins and Seven Holy Virtues?"

The unexpected question surprised Jungkook, making him lean back for a while to think.

"Well... I guess I have. Why?"

"Tell me what you know about them."

Jungkook shuffled uncomfortably, toying with his bangs, as he tried to scrape together what little information he had about this topic.

"Well, according to the church in medieval times, the virtues were what we should strive to be, and the sins were what he should all refrain from being or doing." He said unsurely.

"Wrong."

Jungkook's eyes narrowed. He was pretty sure that what he had said was correct. What was Yoongi trying to achieve with this quiz anyways?

"What do you mean wro-"

"We cannot refrain from being that what we are. Although what you said was correct in terms of that being the ideal back then, the whole thing is wrong."

"But sins are bad, aren't they? They shouldn't be committed."

"So I'm bad for sleeping alot, your friend is pure evil for loving food and Namjoon is a sinner for his occasional wrath?"

Jungkook looked shaken. He realized what he had said and it made him lower his head in slight shame. He had basically labeled alot of good people he knew, as "bad."

"Well I guess if people don't exaggerate, then it's alright. This sin and virtue bullshit is really outdated anyways, what's your point Yoongi?"

Yoongi laughed. "The sins and virtues do exist. In fact they're natural and both sides make up human nature. They're what make us who we are."

"Yeah.... Right. Can we get to the point here? This isn't really helping anything."

Yoongi growled and his eyes darkened for a second as he leaned over Jungkook and covered him with his looming shadow. "Don't be so damn impatient and arrogant... Or maybe that arrogance is simply in your nature."
