retellers | AUDIENCE: YONA

[ that nets her a little quirk of their lips ]

When we manage to locate it, you'll be the first invited.

Good! I'll be counting on that.

But I've got first dibs before that.

Fine, but I'll be right behind you!

I don't doubt that. [ there's a pause ] I'll be in town again starting tomorrow, so any further work on locating it falls on these three.

[

hm.]

Are they going to be okay?

[ ....... ]

Well, it's not physical location, they'll still be in the castle. So they'll be fine.

...that's good, but that's also not exactly what I meant.

They know how to do their job. Theoretically.

[ wolf don't talk shit ]

You don't sound very sure about that.

They let the kid go out with scalpels.

[ they're so tired, yona. ]

...yeah, that was pretty stupid.

[ sighs ]

... But they should be fine. And if they're not, we'll pick up the slack next week.

Is it always going to be you three switching out like this?

Yeah. Someone would have to pull double duty if we tried to mix it up.

So it's going to be a mess every other week, huh.

[ that shouldn't cause them to huff in amusement a bit, and yet ]

You think they're that bad?

[in exactly the same tone wolf used:]

They let the kid go out with scalpels.

[ They lift a hand to their mouth, like to hide a laugh, and just. cough. ]

[she saw that!!]

It's okay. You can laugh. I'm very funny.

Is copying me funny now?

[ but yeah they're clearly amused ]

Kind of!

[she'll take that as a victory]

You're lucky you're tolerable.

[ WOW WHAT A COMPLIMENT ]

That's better than intolerable!

Yeah. [ they still sound amused ] Guess it is.
