He listens to her chiding as she gets comfortable. Wisely, he doesn't comment on the way that she has to hit and nudge him a few times before she accepts it, listening to her story.

She's right that he had the best plan. People still died - people she saved that he couldn't - but that had been when he was scrambling, not sure of the outcome. She, Junghyeok, and the others all had the assurance of knowing he'd done it before. Despite himself, it makes him smile.

He's not looking at her though, when she says she'd do it again together. He's silent just a little too long, before he speaks.

"It'd be nice, if we could. But .... even though I heard you knock, Suyeong.... I think it's too late."
