[ the answering text is a riveting "outside", though it takes Wolf a bit to join Soo-Won. this is probably because some people cannot teleport from the castle and have to walk ]

Don't think I'm the one who needs a drink after all that.

[ this is how you greet people, right ]

[recrowns]

[soo-won... isn't feeling great, admittedly, he looks a little pale, but he does work up a smile

tired as it may be]

But you're the only one I've confirmed who'd be interested in having some - unless we've driven the others to alcohol as well?

[retellers]

Pretty sure some of them aren't even of age for it.

[ but they'll incline their head ]

You look paler than the actual dead. Let's go sit down.

[recrowns]

Oh, that doesn't inspire much confidence...

[but he'll go follow wolf to somewhere to sit]

... Lup is on your team, isn't she? So you know mine as well.

[retellers]

Not the only thing I know.

[ but despite that ominous statement they bring soo-won to the
inn kitchen! ]

[recrowns]

[off to the

inn kitchen! he'll have a seat

and offer a smile]

That's what I was going to get to next.

Angry with me?

[retellers]

Why? You're not my responsibility.

[ they make it sound so simple? ]

And if the self-defense thing is true, at least you put up a fight.

[recrowns]

I already told you I don't really care about winning this, at least not for the reasons that have been provided as incentives.

[which is his argument for why it was probably self-defense]

A loss of life remains though, and ultimately an innocent was removed because I couldn't find the other party. I thought the Leaders in general would be more cross.

[retellers]

Maybe the others are. But it's not like it'd make sense for you to offer yourself up after fighting for your life. [ they shrug ] Maybe if you had you guys would have found the culprit for Cater, but it's already done. No point lingering on what ifs.

[recrowns]

[he nods in agreement - there were a few moments where he considered it, weighed his options, nearly said something....

but ultimately decided not to, and that is something that he has to live with as well.]

You're awfully pragmatic.

How're you feeling? After a week away from most of us.

[retellers]

Idealism wouldn't suit me. [ it's dry, since it's a joke ] "Away" implies you guys didn't keep summoning me back here.

[recrowns]

You do seem like someone who would be popular.

[PEOPLE LOVE TSUNDERES, THERE'S AN APPEAL]

[retellers]

Stop that. It's just the ranking.

[ don't say horrible things ]

[recrowns]

But I like talking to you too! I can understand why others would seek you out.

[shamelessly]

I'm impressed you're still at the top - does that bode well or badly for you, I wonder...

[retellers]

Hm.

[ it's a dubious noise, but they just shrug ]

For me, it doesn't mean much. For my team, if they're not careful, could be they'll get targeted.

[recrowns]

Do you not believe me... [wolf your tsundere popularity]

And I'll try to look after Lup to the best of my ability.

[maybe that will provide like

itty bitty comfort?]

[retellers]

You've seen for yourself that if someone's targeted, there's not much anyone else can do. [ none comfort and also none answer because they clearly do not believe it ]

[recrowns]

Oh, I see what you mean that idealism doesn't suit you.

[soo-won]

.... are you worried about them?

[retellers]

To be honest, I don't think they're in any more danger than anyone else right now. Maybe if it keeps going like this.

[recrowns]

[he nods along at that]

Well, I suppose it depends on how many they admitted their teams to as well, right?

Though it seems like the matter of danger is no longer a question, but a fact. Will we be seeing you, Fox, and Rabbit again this coming week?

[it'd be nice to have npcs who

pat down people before they get executed]

[retellers]

Yeah. It's our turn again.

[ they sound

so enthusiastic about it, ]

[recrowns]

[sdflksdjfdlsjkf

i'm sorry

he just laughs - though a bit more gentle than before, giving that he actually doesn't want to aggravate his injury]

Oh, joy.

[is he trying to mimic wolf's deadpan? perhaps]

[retellers]

[ there's a twitch of their lips ]

That tone doesn't suit you.

[recrowns]

You didn't seem to believe me when I said I like talking to you, so I had to take a different approach. Not convincing that way either?

[retellers]

You're a guy who can convince people of a lot of things, probably. [ idly ] Wouldn't say a lack of enthusiasm is one.
