[ . . . . ?

he tilts his head]

Yona...? What is it?

[dawnblushed]

...

[it takes her a little longer than it should to type the message and turn the phs to show him]

Father had said that I would marry whoever he chose as his successor, but he hadn't made that choice before he was killed.

[recrowns]

[ . . . . ah.]

... Hak would have been a rather excellent successor, if he were to trust in him.

[but.

he reaches out then to rest a hand atop her head]

.... though perhaps now - the choice is yours.

[dawnblushed]

[yona is silent for a few long moments, and then she shakes her head.]

Perhaps. But I don't really have time for things like that now, anyway.

[or like, she won't when she goes back to kouka.]

[recrowns]

[ . . . he just

laughs a bit at that.]

Careful - say that too much and you'll start to sound like me.

[dawnblushed]

That wouldn't be such a bad thing, would it?

[looks at our other thread and laughs]

[recrowns]

[you're the worst

but he'll just shake his head]

.... I want you to live a life much happier than the one I've chosen, Yona.

[dawnblushed]

I'll be happy as long as I can do something meaningful for Kouka with my life.

[she might have been chased out of the palace, but -

she's still her country's princess, after all. she wants to protect it, and the people who live there.]

[recrowns]

Then I'll say again, until my words reach you -

That you have already done so, and whatever more you do, I'm sure will be splendid.

[dawnblushed]

Your words are reaching me, but... I want to do more than I have.

[what's the point of all she's done so far if she doesn't keep going?]

[recrowns]

[going back to this thread is suffering but]

... well, I can't think of reason to stop you. Just be careful.

[if it means the kingdom will prosper - why not let a few bandits do as they will?]

[dawnblushed]

I will be.

[she's got people to help her, anyway!]
