[He frowns at the "removed are gone," but then the expression relaxes slightly when Soo-Won explains. It does sound like there is more to it than simply that, he thinks.
He's a bit glad. Or... hopeful, rather.]
I'll talk to Fox by the end of the week for you. [Just to make it clear he understands.] You have Miss Lup pulled into your little web, too?
[he nods! that is indeed what he wants - but the idea of lup being pulled into his web.... he looks a little confused? even at the teasing? what does that MEAN, blanca]
Mm... I don't know what your phrasing implies...
But I think it easiest to reveal my team to those who certainly wish no harm to me, and understand I wouldn't harm them. It's as you said - anyone more worried about the competition is less likely to be honest.

That's all?

You aren't wrong. My apologies. I was only teasing. You are gathering a good handful of us, is all.
Are you making yourself a council?
[HE IS STILL TEASING.]

[his answer is too serious, coupled with a wistful sigh -
before before he manages a bright smile and a laugh]
But all this is a joint effort, isn't it? I'd like to work together where possible. I'll be relying on you. Please rely on me, too.
no subject
It's a joint effort, yes. We should all work together as much as we can. It'll help us find the information we need to fix things.
[He bows at Soo-Won from the shoulders up, just slightly.]
I'll rely on you, sir.
