They went to go investigate the Nadai at a brothel Jae-ha found. They told me I couldn't come, can you believe it?
[well, obviously yona]
But! I've decided it's my job to make sure Lili stays safe, so I'm keeping her company until they come back so she doesn't sneak away and try to do something. That's what she was up to the other night when we found you, you know. She was doing the same thing we were.
Uh. You know what a brothel is, right? I can totally believe it. [But...sure. He gets that. Protect the princesses. He figures Yona can do a good job protecting Lili but who tf is going to protect Yona then? Guess that's his job.]
So Lili's on our side but she's not made for doing the field work, so instead we're staying here. Is that it?
I know, but that doesn't mean I have to do anything there! I could have just gone along to investigate.
[She would totally blow their cover, though, so that's exactly why they left her behind.]
Mhm, it's pretty much exactly like that. As long as we keep her here and occupied, we're keeping her safe, and that will make everyone else's jobs easier because they don't have to worry about her wandering into a tough situation.
[When she explains it like that it sounds a lot better, but he's still a little wary. Nevertheless, he'll follow along to the springs.]
If we have to keep Lili occupied then I guess we can waste a lot of time in the springs and keep her busy. Or let her try to "civilize" us or whatever rich people do.
It's fun to teach people about things they don't know, don't you think? I can see why Lili would have fun trying to "civilize" us.
[Little does Lili know, Yona's very familiar with fancy hot springs, but that's a secret, sooooo.
Off they go to the springs! Yona, for her part, looks ecstatic to be able to relax a bit for once, and she gets settled in the water very easily. You can take the girl out of the castle but you can't take the castle out of the girl.]
Ahhh... this is bliss.
[Lili looks proud.
"Well, of course! The Water Tribe is known for its beautiful scenery and springs, you know. This is just one of..."
She launches into a long lecture which is really just kind of bragging.
Yona tries to catch Hiro's eye and smiles knowingly. They are keeping her distracted...]
Yeah, I guess. [...yeah to be fair he doesn't mind bragging about science and stuff he knows, so he can believe it. So he follows the girls to the springs, mostly keeping quiet and letting Yona do the talking. Even when they get to the springs Hiro's just going to stare at the sky pointedly instead and sit at the edge of the pool wrapped in a towel and kind of sulking?
He's absolutely sulking, but he's listening to Lili ramble about the water tribe anyway. He'll ask a few questions though to keep Lili further distracted, and he chances a grin at Yona before he promptly realizes that requires eye contact and immediately looks away.
Forget what they think. [He doesn't like that.] They obviously don't know what they're talking about and the only actual monster is maybe Hak for being weird. [He's trying to brighten the mood, and yet.]
...they're important to you though. That should be the most important thing.
[Yona actually chuckles at that. Mood brightened?]
They call Hak the Thunder Beast of Kouka, you know.
[he's on par with the dragons as far as monstrous ability goes...]
...yes. They're very important to me. [Then she smiles.] And so are you. I'm lucky... to have so many people who are important to me together in one place.

He'll. Get there.]

While Lili's distracted with lecturing them about the greatness of the Water Tribe, Yona's going to pout a little at Hiro's sulking.
...
And splash him from across the spring sorry Hiro.]
no subject
[He's also kicking some water at her??? Rude!!!]

[aaand she's splashed in the face. she splutters a little, then wipes the water away.]
Too serious! You need to relax a little, Hiro.
