[recrowns]

[oh me too

but soo-won's just going to smile and then take that hand in between both of his own now]

You're dishonest with me, so I think both of us are going to have to stop if we want to get anywhere.

Do you want me to be nicer?

[retellers]

... I suppose I would not ask you to be anything but who you are. [ though he's still :T ]

[recrowns]

.... well, I'm afraid I'm going to keep asking after your honesty, but I'll try to be nicer about it. Fair?

[and he'll gently pull on goat's hand as if to bring them away from the COFFIN]

Show me around? I haven't gotten to come to the castle before.

[retellers]

[ no. he's staying there. ] There isn't really anything... and I'm not sure if the others would like you wandering around anywhere besides my room. You definitely wouldn't be allowed in their rooms, at least. [ soo-won is stuck inside goat's bedroom of Nothing. ]

[recrowns]

Really? There isn't even a castle garden? A kitchen where we can chat?

[THERE'S ONLY A COFFIN IN HERE, GOAT]

[retellers]

[ soo-won should find a new leader if he wants a better room!! ] I think there's a kitchen... though I've never been there.

[recrowns]

[no he loves this weird old goat]

.... do you want to look for it? I don't know about you, but I would like some tea....

[that's normally what you offer to guests, goat!!]

[retellers]

[ sure hope you don't expect goat to know how to make tea. ] Okay... just try not to be seen by anyone else.

[recrowns]

[SOO-WON IS GOING TO HAVE TO MAKE HIS OWN TEA

but he just smiles]

If we hear someone else approaching, just teleport us away, okay?

Is it supposed to be a secret that I'm here?

[retellers]

Well, it makes it very obvious that you're on my team... [ but out they go... hopefully soo-won wasn't planning on using this as a sneak peek of what else is in the castle because even jan doesn't know! all i know is that a kitchen exists. so conveniently they're going to find it as soon as possible. ]

[recrowns]

[FRANCY WHAT ELSE IS IN THIS PLACE

anyway soo-won will be going along with that, laughing a bit]

So our escape will be quick.

[OFF THEY GO TO THE KITCHEN, soo-won is going to keep ahold of goat's hand and swing it between them as they walk]

How are you feeling today?

[retellers]

[ oh... handholding ] Better, I suppose...

[recrowns]

[goat said that soo-won wasn't being nice so he'll be nice]

I'm glad to hear it.

It seemed like a stressful weekend. I'm sure people will still want to talk to you this week but... I hope that you'll rest.

["seemed like a stressful weekend" as if he did not also suffer]

[retellers]

[ goat is just a childish baby sometimes ] There is nothing wrong with my body today, so I will be fine when people ask for me.

[recrowns]

[yea but soo-won still loves him]

Was something wrong with it yesterday?

[retellers]

[ a beat. ] No?

[recrowns]

[goat]

.... Goat....

Is that why you kept lying down and falling over yesterday? I'd thought it was your emotional state.

[retellers]

[ well 80% of that was just goat being emotional yes ] Maybe I just like doing that.

[recrowns]

Maybe you do! Should we do that after we get tea?

[he will absolutely lie around on the ground with goat]

Now, what was wrong with your body yesterday?

[retellers]

Nothing. I merely had to take a few moments to recover from being electrocuted.

[recrowns]

[he nods... and gives goat's hand a gentle squeeze because he can do that without the zappies]

I'm glad then - that you've ultimately come to feel better today.

And how does your heart feel?

[retellers]

[ ... ] I'm not sure. [ namely because they've been trying not to think too hard until now! ]

[recrowns]

[well that sucks]

... still in the same state as yesterday?

[which

seemed pretty bad]

[retellers]

[ he's quiet for a bit. ] I suppose... I must confront it, sooner or later.

[recrowns]

[ . . . . ]

We can do it together, you know.

[a beat]

I remember what I lost, too. So perhaps we can trade and support each other that way.
