*He still had the piece of cloth from Dalgi's hanbok, unable to let it go even after Daniel had left. He sat on the couch twisting it between his hands not noticing that anyone was watching him at all until he heard Iris's voice.*
You've been staring at that rag for over and hour now, what the hell?
*Before he could stop her, Iris yanked it out of his hands. Haksoo stood up immediately, though she ignored his glare and backed out of reach before he could snatch it back.*
Give it back.
Oh no. We finally see some energy out of you and got you to talk. I'll give it back when you give me an answer.
Damn it, Iris. It belonged to Dalgi.
*He tried to grab it back again, this time Iris let it go so that it fell towards the floor, but haksoo snatched it up before it hit the ground.*
Shouldn't you have a whole house of stuff to mourn over
*Haksoo turned away from her as he stood back up, folding the piece of fabric in his hands before stuffing it inside one of his pockets for safe keeping and so Iris couldn't still it again.*
This is different. James sent this.
Hold on, James actually gave this to you? What did he tell you?
*Iris grabbed his shoulder and spun him around. They both knew very well that James used to be one of their own soldiers until he was forced to leave and James had never been to happy about that. Haksoo had done his best to avoid their former comrade as much as possible since he knew James blamed him a lot for all of it.*
Don't look at me like that. He didn't come in person, just sent one of his little pets to deliver it.
And you didn't think to tell anyone? He's just taunting you. He's been doing it for years and you're such an idiot for even keeping that. What if he cursed it?
He says she's alive, Iris. It was a message to get me to come see him.
You're not seriously thinking of going.....
*Iris grabbed hold of his arm, holding on tight even as he tried to push her off. Haksoo stopped fighting as soon as he felt her nails press against his skin, not yet breaking to surface. He knew very well that he wouldn't leave that room at all if she didn't let him as on top of this, he didn't need to look like an idiot laying paralyzed on the floor for several hours.*
Oh god, you are. That girl really messed you up.
I have to know for sure. You would do the same thing.
*Iris huffed before shoving him back down on the couch.*
Still an idiot, but if you think you're walking into a trap like that alone, then you're dumber then we both think. Let's come up with a real plan first.
