soo-won thinks about asking for details, for seeking additional information - but the truth is, he doesn't really need to. not when he knows that hilda can almost tell him more than goat can, given her personal experience. there's no need to ask for ways to make this easier, or what might need to be done, because he will complete the task for the sake of everyone here.
so instead he just lets his head bow, resting on goat's shoulder for just a moment.
he has to start making preparations after this - but at least for just a moment, he can crack.
[when the embrace comes, soo-won just lets his face nestle further against goat - because it'll hopefully mask the way that his heart feels like it's aching. already, he feels the sense that a headache might be approaching but....
well, when it rains, it pours, no? he breathes in, and out, before trying to center himself again and standing.]
.... the others will be able to be revived, with this. I know you still have your apprehensions but...
I won't fail.
[and at least this way, they won't spill more blood than they have to. a self-defense kill, and a kill to deal with splintering nova.]

he raises his other arm to embrace soo-won, gently. as always, there is so little he can do, and so this is all he can offer. ]

I believe in you.
