[that manages to make him laugh just a bit, amused at her choice of words - but it doesn't make him any less steady. he'll remain at her side until circumstances force him away. but even then, it won't stop him from trying to return to her.
soo-won is often needed in different roles - as a king, as a leader, as a guide - but every once in a while he realizes that someone might need him as a friend.
so he'll try to match that too.
the way that he bows his head toward her is gentle and brief, letting his forehead fall close to hers without actually touching]
[ she really, really wants to press her forehead against his, but she doesn't. she hates this week's effect, it sucks. he can probably feel how frustrated and needy she feels in that regard.
she's quiet for a moment, just letting it sink in.
and then: ] Okay. Enough about me. Did you want to hear what Wolf had to say?
Wolf is, uh - they're Wolf. So take this with a grain of salt, but they basically said people who get removed are dead and aren't coming back. No zombies, no liches, no nothing. They said the wishes should work, no hidden clauses or anything. Voting correctly gets us nova, Cater was probably on Wolf team, uhh...
[ she tilts her head back. ] And I guess Wolf is going to teach me how to fight, so that's rad.
Then no one on Wolf killed this weekend - because Goat told me that the souls of the dead have been kept somewhere else, and there's a chance that we might be able to bring them back. Though, of course, there could be a price to that.
And Goat told me that your wish would only work to affect things outside of the Realm - so we wouldn't be able to wish for the dead to be revived even if you won.
[that's the information
but also
pouting]
You get to fight with Wolf? I'm almost jealous....
I'm not sure what the price is - but it does seem like Wolf might not have been privy to this information before now. Tell me, was your PHS icon flashing the first Sunday after Virid was killed?
[it seems like there's a reason why he's asking]
And I don't, but I want to get to know Wolf better! [HE'S HAK-CODED] Even I enjoy some friendly sparring or tests of skill every now and then...
Because the indicator will flash when the Leader regains a memory, which I believe is tied with committing murder. It's a nudge to go speak with them. So I wonder if anyone's PHS flashed during the first weekend.
[so that's something - though he smiles]
Maybe I'll get to be his second favorite if I ask nicely enough. I suggested we were friends twice and he only ignored me instead of rejecting it outright! I think I'm getting somewhere.

I understand the sentiment.

If you wouldn't mind.

Price, like... [ she wrinkles her nose. she hates the thought of that. ] Fuck. That puts a dent in my plans.
[ as far as wolf goes, she just snorts. ] You don't need to be fighting with anybody, my dude.

No? Why. [ ... ] And you can ask them, but I'm their favorite so I get rights.
