[He stops.]

Even after admitting that it was an excuse, you still want to help?

[recrowns]

[he nods]

Yes.

I liked my excuse.

[soulus]

It was hardly convincing.

[recrowns]

I had a feeling.

But you let it persist anyway, didn't you?

[soulus]

If I hadn't, you would've wasted my time with more excuses.

[recrowns]

Oh, maybe.

[still, he'll hold his hand out - ]

Come, we won't even be in this realm much longer, most likely. Let me help you?

[soulus]

You presume too much.

[He pulls the bandage out and meets Soo-won halfway.]

But I will let it slide this time.

[recrowns]

I'm relieved. Thank you.

[HE'LL TAKE WHAT HE CAN GET!! but gesturing for rufus to take a seat so that they can continue with their usual routine]

Have you been well while we've been apart?

[soulus]

[He sits down. There's a pause before he works on undoing the old bandages.]

As you can see, my condition is stable.

[recrowns]

Hmmm....

Yes, but I'm inquiring about matters unseen as well.

[just. bluntly.]

[soulus]

If you appreciated the silence so much, why don't we have a moment of it now?

[recrowns]

I liked it, but it wasn't my favorite?

[soulus]

Then please refrain from making unnecessary inquiries.

[recrowns]

Hmm...

There is one necessary inquiry I'd like to make, if that's alright.

Do you know anything about a role called the 'Pawn'?

[soulus]

What about it?

[recrowns]

Well, some people were looking for it - not that it matters anymore, given that everyone's been relinquished from their duties from the roles.

I wonder only if you were the holder of it.
