I was talking about how perhaps Eunhyuk could be kept in cryosleep until we reach the courts instead of having to die... and to ask the senior members about that. I thought that you were telling me to try and tell Eunhyuk something, but I already said all I wanted to say on Saturday, so...
[ Yuri simply smiles a little and holds out her hands. They're clean. ]
... I think that depends for each and every person. Whether someone is a friend or not... sometimes, things like that don't have to be said. If you enjoy their company, that could very well mean that you consider them a friend. If I had to describe it... it would be a level of comfort that you're okay with in regards to that person.
I feel comfortable with you and I like talking with you, so I consider you my friend. Though... I'm glad that I can say something like that so freely without being ridiculed for it. Having relationships like this... was considered laughable where I was from.
[ Yuri gently holds Shouxue's hand. It is there to be held. That's what she decided. ]
... Our roles back there don't matter here. It's what I like about this place the most. That's why people are so accepting of others, because some of us understand the isolation that others have felt.
[ her expression softens. shouxue already knows how ready yuri is to leave her old world behind, but it is harder for shouxue to let go of how she was raised. ]
I'm glad you've found so many you can be comfortable with, Yuri. That's the important thing. If you feel less lonely.
[ even if they still have to face murder and more murder. ]

[ which is now. ]

also, help. ]
Shouxue, I feel like... we were thinking of two different things back there. So let's try to clarify what we meant.

[ her saying anything at all in the first place was more than she usually does. ]
no subject
[ yea ]

... Once they mentioned unstable signs, I did not think he would last. You care about him, so I thought you might want to talk to someone after.
[ shouxue thought death was near unavoidable. ]
no subject
[ Yuri nods. ]
I thought that too. Once they mentioned that, I thought... "this is it for him. he will turn into a monster and die".
[ Yuri smiles a little though. ]
I have so many supportive friends... you too, Shouxue. Thank you.

What?
no subject
Are we... not friends?
no subject
after a long pause: ]
I.... do not know how to make friends. Or when.... people become friends.

she can understand what yuri is saying on some levels. ]
I am not someone who is supposed to have friends because of my role.
[ ... ]
But recently, I've accepted what I shouldn't, and I don't mind talking with you, too. If that is what makes us friends, we are friends.
[ she holds out a hand towards yuri, but it hovers instead of reaches. ]

Do you want to feel the same, Shouxue?
no subject
To feel less lonely? [ she's quiet for a moment. ] It is not a matter of wanting, but I do not know if I could go back to how I was before.
