[retellers]

It is. But I don't want to force anyone, then they'll just resent it and they'll like me even less.

[ :( ]

[recrowns]

[ ? ]

Do people normally not like you...?

[he sounds

utterly baffled by this]

[retellers]

I don't think so. So that's why I really want to cherish the people who do, so they don't leave.

[ they look at their hands and ball them up ]

[recrowns]

[hmmmm

soo-won also looks at their hands

and reaches out to cover them with his own with a gentle touch and a smile]

I like you.

And I might have to go in a little bit to see other people, but for right now we can play.

[retellers]

[ they look up surprised and laugh a little, almost shy ]

Really? We haven't talked that much.

[recrowns]

The only way to solve that is by spending more time together, right?

[he'll bring his hands back but does not seem shy at all]

Even if you don't remember all that much about yourself, I'd like to get to know you.

[retellers]

[ they grin, a little wider ] Thanks, Soo-Won. I'd like to get to know you too!

[recrowns]

Is there anything you'd like to know?

For me, I want to know if there's anything else you'd like me to bring you as a gift in the future.

[retellers]

What's your favorite color?

[ they're going for. easy stuff, apparently. ]

I'm not picky, but I like stuff that's pretty? Food is nice, but it's better when it's something tangible I can keep for longer.

[recrowns]

Hm.... I'm torn between red or blue... I like the colors that can be found in the sky the most.

[that's

most colors depending on time of day but okay]

Ah, like jewelry or art? Very nice stones?

[retellers]

Isn't that most colors?

[ it's fine they'll call him out ]

All of that sounds good, yeah! I've been pressing flowers too, so they keep longer.

[recrowns]

Oh, I suppose it is. [thanks swan] But perhaps... the red at dawn or the blue of a clear day are my favorites, then.

[and not for sentimental reasons no way]

Then I'll try to bring you what lovely flowers I find.

[retellers]

Those are good colors. [ and not at all biased towards people ] Thanks, Soo-Won! I bet you'll get some good ones.

[recrowns]

I'll certainly do my best. I don't know spend all that much time around flowers, but I did read a lot in my youth.

[like a NERD]

Do you have any favorites?

[retellers]

Oh, I don't know the names of a lot of them. [ unlike a nerd ] I like the purple ones the most, though. They feel rarer?

[recrowns]

Purple...?

Wisterias? Bellflowers? Lavender?

[well - ]

I'll just start bringing you whichever ones I can find.

[retellers]

I don't want to be difficult when I don't know which flowers we can find around here! So any of them are good.

[recrowns]

I do spend a bit of time in the forest so I'll see what I can find.

[zia what can he find are most flowers okay]

I also had another question that I've been asking all of you if you don't mind, though it's a bit heavier.

[retellers]

[ most flowers are fine so long as they're not poisonous ]

Oh, sure. What is it?

[recrowns]

[yayyy]

Do you feel worried about your memories being gone? Or do you feel any regret for letting them go?

[retellers]

Hmmm... Worried, a little. I don't regret it if it's for the good of everyone, but... [ they lift a hand to their chest ] Sometimes I wonder who I used to be and what my life was like.

[recrowns]

[ . . . . he nods along with that.]

It's something that I'd thought when I first heard that you all gave up your memories for us -

It's rather selfless of you.... but getting caught in the nobility of it could be distracting from acknowledging the way you might all feel a bit hurt even now.

[retellers]

[ they shake their head, immediate ]

You guys are losing your memories too. We agreed to this, and you didn't. I don't think our hurt matters that much.

[recrowns]

Did you agree to being brought here before us and being assigned as our leaders?

[retellers]

I think so? [ reassuring. ] We remember agreeing to exchange our memories, which is what's important, I think.
