[well he's going to head over to where hikaru is stretched out - and he's got a tray! the tray has a pot of tea, as well as a few empty cups, like he's expecting to go out to a few different places tonight
but he'll move to settle beside her, and pour cups for both of them]
[what if she just sat here and turned into grass would that be more productive than the shitshow that was that trial--
She stays remarkably still for a long while, splayed out like a starfish with a little plushie doll on top of her chest, staring up at the darkening sky with a conflicted expression. Her eyes flick to Soo-won when he sits nearby, blowing out a long exhale but not sitting up right away.]
Mad.
I'm gonna go try to talk to him later, Haku-san. I want to know why he did it.
[She nods her understanding, not seemingly upset by the answer.]
I think almost everybody did... and I it might have been Virid-kun that voted for Yona. He wouldn't have voted for himself, you know? If... if he really thought this was a competition he had to win on his own, he'd still try to vote.
I can't make a decision that important if my heart can't follow through, Haku-san. If I have to chose between myself getting hurt or someone else dying, then I don't care what happens to me. I won't sacrifice myself... but I'm not going to play with peoples lives like this is some sort of mystery game.
That's... all there is to it. I don't want this to happen again.
... you're not alone in all this, you know. Whether it be those feelings of wanting to prevent this from happening again, or not wanting to treat people as though they are pawns.
[his words are gentle, even though they seem to carry with them a note of concern]
But if you get hurt, do you think that would please others? Do you think that if you allow yourself to be maimed, you would be able to help people in the future?
If you make yourself hollow first, you may lose the very heart you are trying to protect.

Overwhelmed?

[he doesn't sound put off or surprised, all things considered]
I hope that he responds well to you.

I was with him that night. We talked for a little bit, because neither of us were tired... so I... didn't even think he could have...
[...
Her jaw snaps shut.]
Did you vote for him, Haku-san?
no subject
I did.
[he doesn't bother to hide it]
After all, otherwise that would've meant voting for you or for Yona, no?
[and boy
does he need to find who voted for yona]

[but he'd like proof first before he goes with that]
Did you vote for yourself?

The leaders said people would be hurt if we didn't vote, or if we tied... but not if we voted for ourselves.

... given the way that your name was announced, it hardly sounds as though it's recommended, though.
Will you continue to do so even in the coming weeks? Even if the truth is in front of you, will you vote for yourself?
