Hm.... so he was given orders to kill, and then didn't hesitate. [well that's something!] I want to say it's so that he could get his memory back, but what's the point of not getting into it in private, but disclosing it in public.

[he cants his head to the side]

It seems as though one team leader knows something that the others don't, then.

[evocationary]

[ she's still vaguely skeptical just because she's not sure if everything lines up neatly, but... ]

Seems like it. [ a sigh. ] I wish we could definitively say what nova is. I feel like knowing what it is and what it's doing for the Realm might help?

[recrowns]

Something something magic something related to memories.

[and he offers up a small smile]

If you can't decipher the nature of it, then I'm afraid I might be out of my depth. [as a non-magic]

Though I did also hear that a large amount of nova was generated on Saturday - it seems as though strong emotions, both negative and positive, generate nova. So I've been told that another option is to build our bonds with one another.

[fwiiiiiiendship]

[evocationary]

It'd help if I could like, look at it --

[ she grumbles, and then. that last part. ] Fuck! No, I refuse, because that means I'm going to have to owe Taako money and that cannot happen!

[ this is like 99% a joke but also god dammit the power of friendship ]

[recrowns]

I will pay your debt to Taako.

[DO NOT JUST VOLUNTEER]

[evocationary]

[ alkjksjdkfjs ]

You do not want to owe him. Trust me.

Also, what if the debt was like - a million dollars? Don't just volunteer.

[recrowns]

[a beat, like he's unsure how much a million dollars is, but he'd consider paying it if he was aware]

If you say so.

But I would like to generate nova sooner rather than later, Lup.

[evocationary]

[ a pause. ]

That's, uh. Did you mean for that to sound so foreboding? If you're going to stab me, at least let me write a dramatic letter to leave behind.

[recrowns]

[sdflkjsdfkl he's laughing]

No, no - I meant that I'd like your help to generate it using the other method, regardless of whatever bet you have with your brother.

Why would I ever stab you?

[evocationary]

[ she looks amused. ]

I don't know, maybe you're the kind of dude that'd take advantage of our level three friendship to stick a knife in my back. I've only known you a week and a half. [ sniff. ] What did you have in mind?

[recrowns]

[he shakes his head at that]

I'm not so much in a rush that I'd put blood on my hands over it...

[time is precious but so is life? wow]

We can share together - or if you'd be open to sharing with others...

[evocationary]

I'm picky about my sharing. [ she says, folding her arms. ] But I could be convinced to share with you, Bougie.

[recrowns]

[AW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!













he has to say it]

You're very cute, Lup.

[evocationary]

[ NO STOP SHE'S GOING TO THROW HERSELF OFF A CLIFF


she gives him such a look. ]

Actually, never mind, you've been demoted back to level two.

[recrowns]

[sdflkjdsflkdjsflkjsdf

HE'S LAUGHING]

I did not think my sincerity would earn me a demotion.

[he'll just reach for her hand]

Forgive me and let's share?

[evocationary]

[ she gives him a wry look, but she's amused. she takes his hand! can't believe soo-won has hand holding rights. ]

Sure. You go first.

[recrowns]

[he sure does they're not even assigned to each other this week but he'll idly swing their hands as he moves to take a walk with her]

Anything about my life you'd like to know about in particular?

[evocationary]

[ adorable. she allows this because he gets away with so much shit with her. ]

Hmm. [ she thinks about it, as they walk. ] Tell me something stupid you did as a kid.

[recrowns]

[ :D !!!!!! ]

One time I told Yona I'd be her mother when she wasn't eating well, so I tried to make her eat a pear that my teacher gave me. Apparently that's what I thought mothers did.

[this is so honest and stupid you KNOW it's true]

[evocationary]

[ she snorts, and then cackles. ]

Mothers just - make you eat pears? [ wtf ] Was this just kid logic?

[recrowns]

It's what I had on hand! I was her mother, so she had to eat!

[he laughs and swings their hands together]

And when she had trouble sleeping, I'd still be her mother. So I'd sleep at her side and hold her hand through it, and wipe the tears away that came from her nightmares so that no one else would see.

[apparently he's

he's just always been like this]

[evocationary]

[ what the fuck that's cute ]

Huh. [ she's still smiling, but it's a little softer. ] Well. If I ever need to foist a lost child on someone, I know who to go to, don't I?

[recrowns]

[yea baby yona had a giant crush on soo-woo she didn't have a single chance

but he laughs]

I don't know if I'm particularly good with children, but I'd try?

[evocationary]

I would not try. Nasty things.

[ LUP ] I guess it's my turn then.

[recrowns]

[and that surprises a louder laugh out of him because lup is so fucking horrible and he thinks it's soooooo funny

he hums softly and

gives her hand a gentle squeeze]

... a time you were scared? Or... what might scare you, I suppose.

[a beat]

I'll trade the same after.
