...It is the human condition, to want to survive. It was heartwrenching, to say the least. [ ... ] In the end, that is something we all look to - to have a future.
... To look forward to the future was a luxury that I thought I could no longer have. Now that I have it, I wanted more.
[ Because of hunger week? No. ]
Eunhyuk looked like he wasn't feeling well yesterday, so I invited him over to drink with me... to get things off his mind. I drank a lot, but he took me back to my room. It made me happy that I could help someone forget their worries, even if for a moment.
mm. he nods, listening to the full story - quiet and patient as always. ]
That was kind of you - and kind of him, as well. [ ugh. ] ... It doesn't surprise me.
[ even today. he thinks about that body in the healing pod. the desperation eunhyuk must have felt. the way he just stopped fighting, when temenos called out the discrepancy in his injuries. ]
And I am sure considering the circumstances, he must have appreciated it at the time, as well.
[ he nods. in the end, it's the truth - in temenos' opinion, bringing the truth to light is the most important thing. to lay in guilt and misery is to fester. an open wound hurts, but at least when it is open, it can be treated. there is no closure in nothingness.
... ]
It brings more credence to the theory of manipulation that many of us had last week. And... I only hope that the love of those who care for Eunhyuk that remains will help bolster him in the days to come.
[ though. honestly. he is not optimistic that eunhyuk will survive the next 24 hours, but he won't tell yuri that. ]

Yuri nods. ]
... He did, yes.
[ There's no blame in her voice. Temenos did what he could to solve the mystery and she understands that. ]
It's unfortunate, for everyone.

[ There's a distant gaze in Yuri's eye. ]
After the court proceedings, he can go become a doctor... and find the cure for his condition.
