actually outside somewhere! but instead of taking a peaceful walk and making himself easy to spot, it's not that simple. rather, he seems to be tucked away, leaning his back against a tree trunk, pressing his hand against his chest and trying to regain control of his breathing.
[there's just a shaky, exhausted laugh at that. he lets his head fall back against the tree trunk and to his credit, his mouth curves into a smile, weak as it may be]
So it was... It must've... taken the wind right - out of me.
[nerves.... no - he shakes his head at that, but otherwise doesn't offer up much of an explanation of his condition. he looks like he's running a bit of a fever, warm - but he's actively trying to wrestle control of his breathing again]
Hah... Someone was probably... overtaken by the situation....
[blanca is actually kind - but soo-won seems to at least marginally improving with a little bit of time, at least as his hand falls from his chest so he's not longer trying to keep it together]
Well... it's not your fault.
[and he takes in a longer inhale - and a longer exhale]
Well, it's as I said. Someone probably felt as though they could ease their conscience for voting for someone else, someone completely unrelated, and that fell on Yona. [a little sigh, and a pause as he seems to try to catch his breath] Similarly, she could've even told someone else to vote for her if they were unsure, or she voted for herself. I wouldn't put either past her.
I was merely surprised at the time.
[but it seems like after a long time to think on it, he's reached some conclusions he can live with]
w0 sat, post trial
If Blanca looks around, can he find Soo-Won anywhere? Hello, the Daddy is looking for the Twink.]

soo-won is
actually outside somewhere! but instead of taking a peaceful walk and making himself easy to spot, it's not that simple. rather, he seems to be tucked away, leaning his back against a tree trunk, pressing his hand against his chest and trying to regain control of his breathing.
it seems just a little bit short.]
no subject
Well, he pulls up maybe a couple of yards back, just so he isn't in Soo-Won's space suddenly.]
...Mister Won.
[It's a somewhat gentle call.]
no subject
the recognition of his shared name manages to make him shrink back almost reflexively - but that's silly, his mind tells him. he's already been fond.
so instead he tries to recompose himself, even though he looks very, very tired. he raises a hand, weak, before dropping it]
... Blanca?
no subject
[He nods in return, and he steps up--not closer in Soo-Won's direction exactly, but forward so they are parallel.]
Are you all right? It was a long day.
no subject
So it was... It must've... taken the wind right - out of me.
no subject
It's less he thinks Soo-Won is cold, and more... weighted blanket for nerves, but he won't bring it up.]
The vote for Yona worried me as well. On top of everything else.
no subject
Hah... Someone was probably... overtaken by the situation....
And took the easy way out.
no subject
Perhaps someone voted for a person they knew would not have a majority vote, not wanting to vote someone to death even if they were guilty.
Are you sure you're all right?
[He will
raise his hand to try to feel Soo-Won's forehead with the back of it.]
no subject
... even if I said yes, it's not as though you'd believe me.
[a beat]
It'll pass. So it's nothing to be - [a tiny, minuscule wince] worried about.
... If there's something you'd like to discuss, we can... talk tomorrow.
no subject
[He touches Soo-Won's cheek afterward with the backs of his fingers, and then lowers his hand with a stern frown.]
You should let me walk you to your room. This isn't a good place for anything to happen.
no subject
Ah - no.... If I, like this... Ange and Yona would both end up... so worried...
[so he'd rather wait it out]
no subject
[He looks like he wants to shake his head. FuckING YOUTH. ASH.]
Very well, you'll have to suffer me hovering until you're feeling better.
no subject
[and he only partially sounds like he's joking
but that should answer
how many people actually know]
no subject
[It does not sound like he is offended by this partial joke in the slightest. His skin is as tough as his tiddies are big.]
Do you want to sit?
no subject
[he almost sounds a little petulant - even in his exhaustion. he opens his eyes and tries to focus on blanca, considering the question]
... You needn't worry over me so much.
no subject
[He is!! still frowning!! But doesn't try to bother Soo-Won anymore like a mother hen.]
Even though Miss Yona claimed to not trust you, I think she would be cross with me if I simply allowed you to be ill without help.
no subject
[blanca is actually kind - but soo-won seems to at least marginally improving with a little bit of time, at least as his hand falls from his chest so he's not longer trying to keep it together]
Well... it's not your fault.
[and he takes in a longer inhale - and a longer exhale]
I'm alright.
no subject
This seems to only partially satisfy him, honestly, and he turns around to Soo-Won's side to stand by him.]
Feeling any better?
no subject
I am.
Now, what did you want to talk about?
[CLEARLY BLANCA SOUGHT HIM OUT FOR A REASON AND THAT SEEMS LIKE A GREAT NEW TOPIC]
no subject
There wasn't anything in particular. I came to see how you were after what happened today. You left very quickly.
no subject
Ah...
Well, it's as I said. Someone probably felt as though they could ease their conscience for voting for someone else, someone completely unrelated, and that fell on Yona. [a little sigh, and a pause as he seems to try to catch his breath] Similarly, she could've even told someone else to vote for her if they were unsure, or she voted for herself. I wouldn't put either past her.
I was merely surprised at the time.
[but it seems like after a long time to think on it, he's reached some conclusions he can live with]
no subject
[There is
so much else to fucking worry about.]
no subject
[there's
always something to worry about in regards to miss yona, soo-won thinks.]
At least I'll give you that I don't think I have anything immediate or pressing to worry about.
no subject
[He is already closing his eyes at Yona, so he would be stupid not to think she is like 75% of the protags here in terms of getTING INTO TROUBLE.]
We should see if we can find out what "removed" really means, and what happens to those who are removed.
