[ well, she was angery, but her concern for soo-won is greater than that so she just reaches for him so she can hold him like he holds her sometimes. she's still wearing this stupid fucking ferret kigu. ]
Mad. I'm mad that we let the person who sawed Yoshizawa's head off go free. But that can be for later.
.... no, I'm merely thinking... Emet-Selch seemed displeased with me. I wouldn't be surprised if Archer and Hansa felt the same. I want to meet them and their disappointment head on.
I've been reading medical books so I can become a doctor?
[she doesn't even know he's a king and yet here he is, being a doctor.
anyway - ]
.... you're right. But it's not the conclusion any of us wanted. I wanted to ensure that we wouldn't tie... but regardless, I do not blame them if they wish that I hadn't given up.
[ . . . . there's just a bit of a huff at that, coupled with a smile. he straightens up - but he does lean against her gently (but hopefully not enough to worsen her injuries)]
I'm lucky you like me. I like you too.
[ . . . ]
I agree. At the end... we all made choices that we could live with - or at least, I hope so.

Ah -
.... mm. I agree. At the very least, we can continue to try to decipher the puzzle...

[ her voice is - kind of scary! a little. anyway, she rests her head against his. ] I'm absolute garbo at puzzles, but I have other ways.
no subject
... then I will continue to attempt the puzzle - but I'll trust in you. Let me know if there's anything else I can do to assist you.
no subject
For sure. What I want you to do right now is take a nap, though, because you look like you're going to melt.
no subject
[with a soft smile]
I suppose that I... also simply didn't want to hide away, after all that.

Well, you'd be entitled to? With the whole like, huge stab wound thing.

It's healing - I gave myself stitches.
.... no, I'm merely thinking... Emet-Selch seemed displeased with me. I wouldn't be surprised if Archer and Hansa felt the same. I want to meet them and their disappointment head on.

... Look, it was either that or vote for the wrong person. It means more nova to vote for Emet. [ sigh. ] I hate, uh. I hate looking at it that way.

I voted for Emet, because I didn't want a tie. I couldn't risk us getting someone innocent. It's the best of a worst situation.
no subject
[which. he did have to do this week.]
.... but you're right. [he sighs a bit at that] It's how I felt too but....
.... it doesn't sit correctly - given that during my trial.... I let someone else take the brunt of my punishment.
[even though emet-selch is ALIVE the next day but they don't know that]
no subject
I can see how that'd get you. I don't, uh - I don't really have any justifications there other than I like you better than I like him.
[ she shrugs. ] We have to try harder next time. Focus on the more brutal death. Not the easiest answer.
