It was a worst-case scenario - a way to keep cooperating in case he was removed from the Realm after all. Since it's possible to communicate with the dead, we came up with a code so that we could communicate information quickly and easily.
[Once he's had the chance to read that, she pulls her PHS back to scroll through some of the notes on her app, then holds it out again - ]
1 - the location where you go when you die, what it's like 2 - specific activities performed by the dead 3 - information learned by the dead 4 - information specifically related to nova 5 - the name of any previous killers that may need to be killed for others' safety Use first letter of someone's name, or as few initials as possible to differentiate, when talking about a person. Use U for unknown. 'x' or 'o' after initials to denote if that person should be mistrusted or believed. L with initial of animal for leaders - LT, LG, LF, and so on. We need to: come up with a codeword to indicate that it's us in case someone tries to claim to be us to spread misinformation.
Please do. I shared it with Archer, the night of the trial. I think Emet-Selch plans to share it with Alyssa. So that's five of us who would be able to use the code if something happens.
...well... I really want to ask you who told you things were going to be okay, but I know you probably can't just tell me that, or you would have already.
Hm. But I know that all too well. Won and I have...talked about a lot of things, about who is he, and what he wants. He's far more complicated than he wants people to let on.

[WTF EMET?]
He didn't say a word?

[And a light smile...fond?]
Exactly what I would expect of the man. Hey, just in case...can I copy this code and use it too?

Good to know. Anyways, Yona... [And give him a minute while he types.] Did you have any more questions for me?
no subject
no subject
Nope! I can't tell you!

[...]
Well, if you talk to them again, please tell them I said thank you. It's good to know there was something that could be done to save him.
no subject
[And a frown.]
...All I hope is that it didn't have some kind of price for it that no one's telling me.
no subject
no subject
[He really hopes nothing will happen, but...]
[Hm.]
Need anything else, Yona? I'm here to help.
no subject
[maybe it will be easier to ask when she has her voice back!]
Thank you, Hansa.
no subject
[And he smiles, lightly.]
...How are you getting along with Won, by the way?
no subject
Yona tenses. It's subtle, but there's definitely a tension in her shoulders that wasn't there before. Her expression stays even, though.]
Well enough, I suppose. Why do you ask?
no subject
Oh, he's told me about you a couple of times. I believe you both come from the same world, right?
no subject
[She looks conflicted for a moment or two, like she's wondering if she should ask, but then she types:]
What has he said about me?
no subject
[A pause.]
I don't know if you see him the same way, though.
no subject
He's an important person to me.
no subject
Important can mean a good or bad thing. An enemy could be important, too.

no subject
People are complicated, though. I think most of us are more complicated than we let on... with some exceptions.
[Some people are just very straightfoward!]
no subject
But Won, especially...he feels like he's walking the tightrope between two very different lives.
