No, just. I've seen it on other people's screens before, you know? And usually it says, um. They'll be removing whoever is supposed to die. It didn't that time.
I don't want to pretend like I know anything, because I don't. I just thought it was weird.
Did you get a photograph? You could tell me about that one. [ she reaches for the one that she'd had on her stomach earlier - it got tossed to the couch. ]
Mm, I understand now! That's her as well? How sweet....
[he looks so happy at this, soft and fond as he looks over the photograph]
Hmm... I suppose I do have a few stories of my childhood, though I don't know if I have anything quite so sweet.... I grew up with Yona and Hak, so we would play together often whenever we got the chance.
[he's SO pleased - and he gives her a bright smile at that]
Hmm... A game...? Yona's father was always so strict so she wouldn't get to play around with us as much but - I remember how we would always chase after these cats that would appear in the gardens.
Or - there's the time that we brought Yona out to the town instead of where she was being kept and guarded! So we ate street dumplings and listened to music.

For Hansa? Emet-Selch? Chiron?
[they all uh
really had a fucking time, didn't they]
If I may... what were you and Sora talking about? While we were all watching...
no subject
[ and as for that, she wrinkles her nose. ] What do you mean?
no subject
[he tilts his head]
But... you're right. It was a difficult day for all three of them, even though Hansa seemed to give us all quite a scare at the same time.

no subject
[he nods at that]
It is a bit strange but.... well, it turns out that there wasn't a removal today.
Just another mystery to investigate.
[
for once he sounds a little tired]
no subject
I'm getting tired of mysteries. Every time something seems like it's solved, four new mysteries appear. I'm sick of it. I'm done!
no subject
You're not wrong. It's getting harder to decipher what answers we have and where they come from - and even then, whether or not they can be trusted.
It makes you wonder how close we truly are to restabilizing the Realm.
no subject
Can we have a day where we don't talk about the Realm? I feel like I want to crawl out of my skin and I hate it.
no subject
hmmmmm, he looks thoughtful for a second before offering up a smile.]
Would you like to trade some more memories? Talk about the weird things that I've read in books?
I can taste again - so I can make you something to eat, if you'd like.
no subject
I still can't taste. [ GROUCH ] We can trade memories, I guess.

no subject
[he looks surprised at that]
... but if you tell me what kind of memory it should be, I can try to describe it.
no subject
It's, uh. Well, let me show you mine. [ and she gives him the photograph. ]
no subject
[but he looks amused at that and also
TOTALLY LIGHTS UP WHEN HE SEES THE PHOTOGRAPH]
Oh! This is so sweet...!! Look at the two of you!
no subject
That's - I think I told you about when me and Taako lived with our aunt? This is during that time.

no subject
Tell me about a game the three of you played.
no subject
Hmm... A game...? Yona's father was always so strict so she wouldn't get to play around with us as much but - I remember how we would always chase after these cats that would appear in the gardens.
Or - there's the time that we brought Yona out to the town instead of where she was being kept and guarded! So we ate street dumplings and listened to music.
[and then she like
got kidnapped
but that's less happy]
