[ . . . . . he seems to hesitate before admitting - ]
At present, I'm under the effect of... something. It makes me answer questions about myself even though I don't wish to, or volunteer information about my condition. Thus... you can, if you'd like to -
But there is a chance that any answer that I give will be against my will.

... thank you, Yona.
My hope is that come the turn of the week it'll be resolved.
I don't... I know that there are a few powers making people behave oddly this week - but there haven't been any leads on the cause. I've theorized that it might be the Leaders' powers - or the powers of other participants.

Next week - you, myself, Blanca, and perhaps Zuko. And whoever else might appear. We can ask questions and see if that stirs anything odd.
Though even if we notice... it's hard to say whether or not we'd be able to do anything.

[it's comforting, to have a plan. to know that next week, she'll be spending curfew with people she trusts.
there's a brief moment of silence, and then she looks up. he'll feel a bit of uncertainty before she speaks.]
Soo-won, can I ask you something...?

...then, I'll wait until you're not affected anymore. If you tell me, I want it to be because you choose to, and not because you have to.

[it's only fair! soo-won (probably) wouldn't force someone else to answer a question, like this; his privacy should be respected, too.]
...do you have any idea what caused it?
no subject
I don't... I know that there are a few powers making people behave oddly this week - but there haven't been any leads on the cause. I've theorized that it might be the Leaders' powers - or the powers of other participants.

[...???]
I know some of them had powers before we came here, but... I'd heard those weren't working. Did some of them come back?
no subject
So I've been searching and thus far no one's offered me any additional information.
no subject
...how long has this been going on?

no subject
[and it's been A While. so it's probably not another item.]
no subject
That's why I ruled it out as an item - so it must be something else.
There are a few other oddities flying about this week, so I'd like to keep an eye on what they might be, and see if there's any reasoning behind them.
no subject
[haha, imagine if someone asked him if he'd killed anyone.]
no subject
If they do, slap your hand over my mouth so they can't hear my answer.

It's not that I don't think you can handle it - but it's not as though it's enjoyable for you to be in pain, Yona.
no subject
Which is why I'm not doing it. I'll find something else to keep you from talking with if someone asks a bad question.
no subject
[he's not thinking too deeply about this and just offering her a smile]
Not too many people know, and it's not immediately obvious... so let's hope it doesn't come to that.
no subject
[she's mostly worried about them revisiting previous suspects if they stall out at the trial, honestly.]
