[Eun is dressed extremely comfortably. Her pants are big and formless, held in place with a drawstring. She's wearing a tee and a giant unzipped hoodie up top and not a spec of make-up.
Without the influence of the flower pollen, she doesn't offer Daseul a hug, but she doesn't seem so guarded as to cross her arms over her chest. She doesn't avoid his gaze, but instead offers him a small smile.]
[ Daseul is the same; dressed for comfort, in a large t-shirt that looks like it belongs to someone else entirely, and the soft, silky shorts that he sleeps in. And... a big, cozy scarf, wrapped up around his neck.
He offers Eun a nod, this time, not wanting to make her any more uncomfortable than he might have already. He regrets not staying with her longer that day. He should have kept her with him. ]
[Don't kick yourself, Daseul, Eun would have probably made a point of going even if you'd tried to keep her with you. She was minded to spread the love that day, so to speak.
Eun opens her mouth to say something, to respond, when her eyes settle on the scarf around his neck. The scarf he's wearing. On Jeju Island. In July. She squints at it suspiciously.]
[ That's about what Daseul expected; he can't just walk out with a scarf on the way he does at school during winter. It just doesn't make sense here, but he didn't have a lot of other options, and he wants to avoid explaining this to Easal. ]
[Daseul ought to know by now that if he has a rash, she could whip up something for him to help it go away faster. Especially since the flowers and their pollen were magical in nature.
But she's smart enough not to try and yank the scarf off now or drag him down to her level. Instead Eun pretends to go along with it and simply...follows him to the viewing room.]
Yeah, let's find some good seats.
[The sooner he's sitting, the easier it'll be to check the rash out. And as far as Eun is concerned, having two distractions from her thoughts about Jin is better than one.]
[ Daseul does know well that there's a lot of people who could help heal him up, but he also doesn't much want to explain to anyone what happened, or have prying eyes or questions or worse- worry- about his poor decisions. Like his hand, still scarred but healing well, he'd rather keep it to himself.
He finds some comfortable seats near the center, with neatly folded blankets and wide, fluffy cushions, gesturing to her to sit first. ]
[Eun appreciates Daseul's height if nothing else than for the fact that he can spot open spaces like this well before she can. She grabs a seat on the left side and immediately stretches her legs out with a yawn.]
Tomorrow I think I'm going to see if I can round up some supplies for a couple spells, maybe a ritual at the beach. Did you want to come with me or do you already have plans?
[ QUIETLY GIDDY, though he's not sure what her concern is about; he does notice it. Maybe it's because she knows Cermand has promised to take him away. ]
[ He's not exactly an expert, but he thinks he knows enough. ]
He's a fae, and he's married to Coire, is lovers with Cromm, and has a daughter Caoimhe. I walked Coire home once because it was raining, and he offered to teach me magic.

Why are you wearing that?
no subject
The pollen last week gave me a rash.
Shall we go inside?

no subject
I want to come.
[ He's literally never had plans in his life. ]
no subject
I thought you might. I'll even let you help with it, if you want. Some of it doesn't require certain participants to have magical ability so...
[In a sense, Daseul can do the magic with her.]
no subject
[ Even with Cermand trying to teach him, that's about all he's really good at. ]
no subject
No, it's actual participation, helping set things up, drawing circles...
[After a moment, Eun pauses a beat.]
Has anyone ever actually tried to teach you magic, to see if you had any ability?
no subject
[ They spent more time flirting than anything else. ]
But we didn't get very far with it.
no subject
Does this fae man have a name?
no subject
Cermand.
no subject
Eun stares at him, eyes wide.]
You know Cermand?
no subject
I do. Why?
no subject
Do you know who he is? Who he knows? Who his people are?
[He is a Name in the community. He, Coire, Cromm, Eun knows them all by reputation, things she's heard at the bar and at the bakery.]
How do you even know him?
no subject
He's a fae, and he's married to Coire, is lovers with Cromm, and has a daughter Caoimhe. I walked Coire home once because it was raining, and he offered to teach me magic.
