[recrowns]

[he's BIDING HIS TIME baby

soo-won is then going to sit down next to goat

and stop biding his time]

And so? What personal memories did you recall that upset you so?

[retellers]

... H-How did you know...?

[ they thought they got away with it ): ]

[recrowns]

Well, to begin, you said so.

[he's just gonna point it out]

Second -

You told me you were afraid this day might come, and I think it's adding to your disposition.

[his sweet goat was mumbling into dirt okay he found it hard to miss]

[retellers]

[ ...

they bury their face into their arms. ]

I... don't want to think about it. Not today.

[ this is jan hinting that you should ask for a monday audience for reasons. i hate us. ]

[recrowns]

[DOES JAN REGRET BEING MY LEADER NPC YET

marks on my to do list to come back for another audience tomorrow

but. soo-won is just going to pause at that before shifting and letting his shoulder rest against goat's, even if it's just for a small reaffirmation that he's right there]

... okay.

Then what shall we talk about today?

[retellers]

[ i cry

they look up at him, surprised. ]

[recrowns]

[there's a tilt of his head, coupled with a smile]

What is it?

[retellers]

I am just... surprised.

[recrowns]

Because I'm letting you go for today?

[retellers]

... When you put it like that...

[recrowns]

[there's just a bit of a soft laugh]

... I won't force you to talk about it, if you truly don't wish to share with me.

But I don't want to leave you alone with the struggles of your heart either.

[retellers]

I am choosing not to think about it at all for today, especially when people are calling for me.

[recrowns]

[he nods along at that]

Mm. It's important to be able to provide a stable face for them, right?

[retellers]

Yes. Though I could probably be doing a better job...

[recrowns]

What makes you say that?

[besides

endless electrocution]

[retellers]

... Never mind! Please forget I said anything.

[recrowns]

I will not, I am very tired of forgetting.

[retellers]

... All right, but, um. I still said nothing.

[recrowns]

No, no, that's the same thing just rephrased.

What is it that makes you feel like you are not adequately helping? You know that I won't judge you for anything you say, my friend.

[retellers]

[ ...

they look away, as if this has ever helped against soo-won ever. ]

[recrowns]

[he leans back against the tree trunk and directs his gaze to the sky]

It's alright. I can wait.

[retellers]

Don't you have people to talk to...?

[recrowns]

... maybe.

[he sounds like he's actually weighing this today but]

But for now, I'm here with you.

[retellers]

[ ...

they look up at the sky, as if they're not quite sure how to respond to that. ]

[recrowns]

[it's cool, soo-won's going to look for gulfan in the sky too

he'll give goat a little bit to see if they're going to actually fess up or if he'll need to prod again gently]
