@Ⓘ GOV Lee Soohyuk ()I'm confused.....lol what do you mean? /blinks/

/Listening out to you clearly, I know that what you're saying is making sense, however, I'm still a bit wary. If he finds out can he perhaps slip up unknowingly or by mistake? It's just hard to trust someone really because you're different, I trust you unlike others, it's hard trusting people out there to be quite honest. You know that yourself, chewing on my lower lip a little- my breath hitches a bit as I think long and hard about everything you've said. I guess confronting him on the situation at hand can help because he has much more say about everything around us. He can get me back into my position rather easily. Holding onto the flesh in between my pearly whites. Keeping it hostage- gnawing and abusing the skin a little, my eyes twinkle and smile at you albeit a bit insecure and scared of the impending idea. Of course, you're simply trying to ask and help in all ways you can, that I do know. However, it's still a bit challenging to agree./ "I--I um...I think that's good right? I mean he can help us out much more, get us in easier than before and take things in a lawful manner. Although, I want to put them out on my own and be the one to show them just who's in charge. Let them see my face when I'm taking it back." /A low threat leaves my tiers as my eyes flutter shut before blinking them open to look at your facial features with softer orbs than what I'm really feeling and how they may seem to give off a killer vibe from the underlying anger bubbling up within my body and mind./ "What do you really think Soohyuk? Would I still be able to go at it the way I WANT TO or would the Emperor want to take over everything?" /I know I may come off as being rude, in asking such but I need to know, after all, you work for him so you'd know, you're close to him after all./

@Ⓒ Kim Hyuna [] good cause I was gonna a drag you in the festival room too and workout but I sat on the couch xc

"I wouldn't think that of you, your very nice I don't see why anyone would want to say otherwise" /I say with a smile letting out a soft sigh tapping the fingers from my free hand against the table/ "Well I'm glad I have someone to joke around with, the emperor's alright but I guess cause of all the stress he gets overwhelmed." /I look Crosse yes as you finger comes close to poke my nose before you pull it away, I teasing opens my mouth as if I was going to bit your finger for poking my nose instead I just smile and shake my head/ "I assume it wouldn't be just as great as here but you never know sometimes other kings change up the palaces" /hearing about all the hatred got me to think on a bigger scale, though I would assume that no one in your palace would report such misconduct only because they were scared themselves of the king and queen/ "You know I know where thing to stick to our plans and lay low but what if we go the input of the emperor. I'm sure if he hears your story he'll understand." /Knowing that the emperor has more power over her parents he could also convince the army to go up against them to convince the people of their wrongdoings with might even be a simple way out/ "If your up for it if you stall want it to be just us that's fine too." /I shrug my shoulder and nod my head firmly upon being asked if there was still food left for us to eat/ "It should be out soon there's quiet a few of the servants still left in the kitchen."

@Ⓘ GOV Lee Soohyuk (_)I'm back precious love <33

"Ahahah hey, don't get me wrong I mean I'm not some cold hearted freak." /Winking a light toothy grin showcases when my lips curl back to expose the pearly whites, shining as a soft laughter rings out in the air at the dining quarters we're seated at./ "It's fine really, I actually love your jokes and company so please, let loose with me." /Chuckling happily a small, sweet smile dances upon my soft, tinted tiers./ "It's really nice, I can be myself with you and you for sure can be yourself as well." /Winking in a whimsical way back at you a soft chuckle rings out before I press my hand onto yours, giving it a gentle squeeze while looking around as if still in a dazed trance./ "It's beyond gorgeous really, my palace back at home was beautiful and perfect as well, just as this--however, it's not nice? I mean I have a lot of bad memories as you oh so nicely put it." /Chuckling a little, my palm removes itself from the back of yours with a soft smile as I turn back my attention solely onto your face yet again. The dim light casting an afterglow on your sharp, handsome features which bring a cheeky grin to play on my lips. Reaching out a forefinger at you, the digit lightly pokes your nose with a small smile twitching on the flesh before I settle back and breathe out a sigh of content./ "I wish, however, that I've had nice people like yourself and the staff around me back then. Everyone hated me in the palace as well alongside with my parents, or were forced to treat me like the bad egg in the family because my parents scared them." /A soft murmur filters through the still, silent air because you and I are the only ones here, with only sounds of us breathing. So that, I'm sure you can hear me clearly./ "Are there any leftovers for us by the way?"

@Ⓒ Kim Hyuna [] that's fine I got it dear c:

"Aww come on you know I am" /I laugh and rubs my nape nervously obviously k own ingredients that sometimes my jokes do get out of hand sometimes but I try not to let them get too far to where they hurt your feelings/ "Alright I admit maybe sometimes my joking isn't nice but it's not meant to hurt you in anyway"/I give you a wink before walking into the kitchen asking the servant to fix us both a plate of food before walking back into the dinning area and pull my chair out so I can sit next to you/ "So what are you thoughts on the palace? You know from previously being a princess and growing up in a palace yourself. Was there anything here that you would have wished you had there. Something happy not anything that will bring you back to some terrible memories." /I lean an elbow against the table and fest my cheek against my hand so I'm able to turn towards you and admire your face as it lights up as you search around the room admiring the beautiful decor, thinking to myself that she's probably amazing at how elaborate this place really is since hearing about and the descriptionsecond everyone gives doesn't do it justice/

@Ⓘ GOV Lee Soohyuk ()well I'd reply lol

"Ahahaha sureeee you are." /Winking cheekily at you, you and I both know that even though I'm pretending to be sarcastic. That's all it is, faking, I'm not anywhere close to being serious whatsoever. My thoughts are surrounding your words, listening to your soft-filled words as they're being uttered from your lips as I nod my head in understanding./ "That's true, so true." /A murmur dazed and not really in the 'now' is what's being heard coming from my mouth as I look up at you when you speak to me once again./ "Ahh yeah sure, thanks." /A small smile flickers across my lips as I tilt my head in confusion when you bow, wondering how come you're being formal yet again with me. However, shrugging it off, I settle into the chair and glance around yet again, as always, when I do come in these halls, I study each and every crevice to memorize by heart. Just because I can and want to, it's really dynamic seeing the amount of work that has been put into everything and it brings about even more admiration for the servants working at this palace. Although there's a bout of sadness washing over me, because they have to work so hard./

@Ⓒ Kim Hyuna "I'm always sweet and caring what do you mean?" /I chuckle taking a step into the dining quarters pulling the door behind us/ "oh my diet well I try to stick to what I'm used too. I'm not really one to try things or stay away from my regular routine." /I say following you over to the table/ "Well I mean the castle has always been beautiful a lot of work goes into the palace as well as a lot of work to keep the place looking as beautiful as it is." /I look around for the maids seeing that they are still cleaning up everything in the kitchen/ "Hey hyuna why don't you go ahead and have a seat I'll go and talk with the servants and see if they can fix us a few plates before they get rid of everything" /I say pulling a chair out for you so your able to take a seat at the grand table before bowing politely and walking into the kitchen to go talk to the servants that are still working to put away all the food that had been cooked for dinner for all the members of the palace/

@Ⓘ GOV Lee Soohyuk /A light laughter rings out in the air when you start playing your part, it has my eyes dancing in merriment which twinkles and shine at you as my head shakes slightly from side to side while clicking my tongue./ "My, my look at you being all sweet and caring." /A teasing tone filters throughout the air, ringing over to you when my right eye winks at you playfully./ "Ahhh that's understandable that's a good thing, I'm glad you do not allow anything come between you and your diet." /Smiling softly at you I cheeky grin makes it's way to my lips as I walk in and glance around a bit. Moving as you usher me to, my feet walk along the tiled floor, making sure to be careful and not slide as I'm taking off my sandals to follow you, my eyes roam around the place curiously as if I've never seen it. I did a few times when doing jobs around the place. Otherwise, so I've never had the time to actually study everything in detail./ "It's really beautiful in here, it always stuns me each and every time." /My hushed whispers, as if being scared that someone would hear us rummaging around like thieves in the night when it's by far something close to that./

@Ⓒ Kim Hyuna "Sure thing honey" /I say with a slight smirk forming from the corners of my lips/ "that's if your up to the challenge I'm not one to stay up very late either so you can bet I'll wake up early like normal" /I grin lightly bumping your shoulder back lightly but not hard enough where i just push you over though i enjoy the fact how you accept my playfulness and teasing and that you don't take any offense to it not that i have any intentions of harming you, just the fact that we've become more comfortable around each other is satisfying/ "I don't miss a thing my dear, If I do I stop what I'm doing and take care of it first before moving on to other tasks" /walks up to the side door entrance to the imperial palace since it opens towards the library and dining quarters, slips my shoes off at the front doorstep before extending my arm out to pull on the handle opening up the doors to the dining quarters/ "Right this way my dear." /I say with a grin upon my lips as i hold the door open like the gentlemen I am and swiftly moves my arm motioning for you to go right on ahead inside the building/

@Ⓘ GOV Lee Soohyuk /A light tremor crosses down my spine when your heated breath fans over my ear which makes me chuckle softly as I a brow and look back at you with a light smirk taunting and teasing on the subtle flesh./ "Say what, wanna put a tester on that statement darling? Wanna make a bet- see who can get up earlier and haul the other one out of bed?" /Grinning cheekily I squeeze your hand and nudge you gently, bumping my shoulder happily into yours as a bubble of chuckles leave my lips in the immense feeling you're giving to me just by being in my company. It's nice having this light thing with you, everything is going smoothly, as my eyes find the twinkling stars once more - I send a thank you to the heavens who listen to me. They're the only one who help me solely- if it wasn't for faith I'd never have met you to even help me to conquer my quest./ "Hey hey hot stuff, I wasn't saying you'd do it on purpose! I mean in the case of you busy and all that and you skipped out unknowingly." /A soft chuckle leaves my tiers as I lightly shake my head, bringing over my head once again to rest against your shoulder, Lips brimming into a small smile./ "Don't look at me so, it happens, happens to me too like this morning." /Humming lightly I enter the palace with you heading over to the dining quarters with you./ "Come on let's make sure there's something left for both of us to eat."

@ⒾⓈ Jeon Jihwan /I hum a little and listen to you- my tongue itching to snap at you for thinking it's some freaking pity for them. For them!?! What would you say when you hear they killed me off to sell me and just get rid of me? I feel my anger boiling in the pit of my stomach- my fingers and relaxing with the anger coursing through my veins. I wanna just snap and slap you even with the temper flaring up in my system, I cannot believe you'd think so--but I know you don't know of the situation so I cannot bring it in myself to even blame you because you definitely won't know anything. Yet here I am getting angry when it's of 'them' I should be getting angry for being the little puppies in this who lost their only daughter- how tragic. It has me snorting under my breath and I heave a sigh and just take you in when you spoke up about 'to listen' and I snap my eyes to you and tilt my head./ "I'm listening--oh...." /i trail off and chuckle softly as I listen to your words, nodding my head slowly as I smile a bit and laugh softly./ "I'd love to start over with our friendship besides- we just weren't lovers back then, we started off as friends correct? I think it's in the past and believe me--I may have been angry back then but that didn't mean I hated you." /I state with a soft smile and gently reach up to your cheek and I flash you a soft smile yet again./ "I'm happy to give this a chance once again, also having you here too is like a breath of fresh air--hell I just needed to have that friend/comfort and you just popped up right on time--ahah as usual." /I state with a fond smile at memories back then- how when I was in need of a shoulder to lean on. You'd come up all of a sudden surprisingly right at that very moment./

@Ⓒ Kim Hyuna *blinks a few times, trying to think of if I've heard anything about the Kim Kingdom- things here and there about rumors of their rested daughter and whether they'd bare child again but nothing written in stone. Nothing I can recall at least* "Ah, yeah that was a real tragedy. I feel bad for them. To lose an heir. More so to lose your own child... I can't even think of what they must be going through. They have to be going though a lot down there. And everyone's always speaking of the feud, no one even bothers to speak of it. I mean, unless they wish not speak on such a topic then I see where they're coming from." *shakes my head a little and sighs before I realize that I've completely just been droning on for a while now. I clear my throat and let my gaze fall on you again to give you my attention once more and an odd feeling washes over me as I feel the need to do something. Like apologize. And so I do just that* "Uh- listen... I know we've probably been through this already but I don't think I left things the right way. I really am sorry for everything. For treating you the way I did and completely neglecting you. At the time, I couldn't give you my all because I felt like I had nothing to give to you so instead of just giving you what I had, I ended up trying to work for something that would take me years to achieve. And I ended up pushing you away more than anything. I hope you don't hold on to any of those times and let them hinder you because you really are a strong person and now that I see you, I feel like you have more of a barrier built up. I would like for us to have a healthy relationship as friends so I want that all to be behind us and I'd like to start over again, if that's fine." *smiles a little and internally wants to hit myself for being so out of character and rambling so much.

@ⒾⓈ Jeon Jihwan /I laugh softly when you say that little bit and I do know you're capable of everything that comes your way- you're a tough guy and I have full faith in you. That you'd be someone to help yourself and rise from this and become even better. Of course it'll just be taking one step at a time and that I must say I do admire and respect you for, which brings a soft smile to my lips as I hum a little and tilt my head over to look at you and a brow- my breath hitching when you speak of the two kingdoms. Knowing fully well I'm one involved in that- not noticeably at the moment because of the stupid King and Queen who wanted me out and killed me off- I cannot help but wonder, I've not heard of anyone child being born to them yet. So I honestly do wonder who would be baring the brunt of the heir or heiress to the throne which has me snorting softly under my breath before I turn to you fully and regard you. Still handsome as ever but that's not what I need to have in my way right at this moment./ "Hey have you heard of um anyone perhaps being able to take over the throne? Of the Kim's seeing as their one and only daughter died and all? Such a tragedy yeah?" /I ask and breathe out softly as I flicker my eyes away and out before us, looking at the beautiful field as I bite down on my lower lip a bit as I take you back in regard and roam my eyes over you carefully. Not checking you out per-se just taking in your appearance, how you do seem to be doing much better from the last time we've seen each other. Looking healthy and all even more so than before./

@Ⓒ Kim Hyuna *I chuckle softly and shake my head lightly, trying to remember that I can speak a little more freely, being out here with you. Even with our situation, I feel a little lighter around you and I breath out heavily, trying to relax a bit. Of course you've always been one for words of encouragement so your words don't surprise me but I still feel a sense of gratitude for them* "Don't even worry about it. I know what I'm capable of. I was just hoping I could put them to use, you know? Instead of having to be stuck doing something like this? It's a little frustrating, if I do say so myself but I've learned that this is where In need to be to get to the next step so I'm not worried." *smiles shortly and chuckles as I shrug a little in defense. I've kinda always been like this so it shouldn't be anything new and I can only laugh as I realize that's how it's always been. As far as my memory will take me, at least* You know I mean well...Nothing's really been going on, to be honest. I do the same thing, day in and day out and there's always the same gossip about the two kingdom's feud. They're not going to actually do anything any time soon. I'm glad to know you've been here though, out of the way of all of that mess, anyway. And you're doing well. But of course you are. It's you. You can handle pretty much anything, I'm sure. *I respond, nudging you back playfully- I haven't actually had a real conversation like this in a while so it's a little comforting and I know I can let my guard down*

@ⒾⓈ Jeon Jihwan /I snort softly and laugh out softly as I playfully roll my eyes and then look at you as I shake my head./ "You sure do know how to make a joke out of a y situation huh? But of course, I'm proud and happy that you're here making better of your life Jihwan really I am." /i state with a fond and friendly smile- because even though we may have had a bad breakup we still ended things on an a okay term and it's not something big and bad per-se that it's something akin to being so bad that we do not want to see each other faces. Or cannot stand one another presence- we both know that's far from ever being the truth. Smiling softly, I listen to you and follow you out as I heave a deep sigh./ "Hey you're still one talented man--one of the most talented guys I've ever met in my life okay? So please, do not let anyone else have you thinking otherwise hmm?" /i ask with a light smile playing on my lips as I listen to your questions which causes a chuckle to leave my lips./ "Ahhh well I am okay--same old, same old. Nothing really new is going on. I cannot tell you that I'm just here wasting my time to get back to where I once was because I do not, cannot have that out of the bag..muchless I don't know how you'd take that news especially./ "Mmmm you suppose huh? It's nice seeing you, at least I'm being nice here." /i state in a teasing tone and wink playfully as I nudge you gently./ "So anything new going on in your life? How long have you been here? I honestly just got here--not long about a week or two now? It's my first time coming into the area and being out of the concubine estate actually. Hence you never saw me." /i state with a sad, longing sigh- because if I'd have met you before I'd have known I have someone./

@Ⓒ Kim Hyuna *hums softly, keeping my laughter controlled as you scare a bit- there really is no denying that seeing you again makes me feel just as ecstatic as when we had started dating. Glad that things were left on good terms, I return the short lived hug and give an airy chuckle at your comment, rolling my eyes playfully. I don't suppose I ever entertained the thought of you ever ending up here but the thought is fleeting either way as I take in your features, still the same as before. Definitely still as entrancing as before as I fold my arms and fully appreciate your presence during the long day* "Haha whatever do you mean. I've moved up from where I was before. Is this not a good thing?" *chuckles a little dryly and clears my throat, figuring the comment was a little too harsh, trying not to take out my exasperation on you- before we can continue I lead you out of the kitchen and out the door that leads to the outside* "Look, after you left, I came here for work. It's actually the best I can do, being of my status. No matter any of my skills. It doesn't really matter why I'm here though. How are you? When did you even get here? I suppose this was kind of bound to happen but I just haven't seen you in so long and it's a... pleasant surprise, I suppose."

@ⒾⓈ Jeon Jihwan /I jump a little hearing that voice- I still shiver a little just hearing how your tone washes over my skin. My eyes widen as I turn to you and my breath caught itself in my throat as I laugh a little and try to push down how I feel from seeing you up close and personal like this- I try tugging at the dress/robe material that slinks a little and reveal too much of my bare s as I feel a bit self conscious in your presence. I do not know why but I do and I just smile softly and reach over to hug you. Briefly but still a hug as I back up a bit and bite down on my lower lip as I take a deep breath./ "See you're still getting your handed to you huh? Not paying attention on the job Jihwan?" /I tease playfully as my eyes dance in mirth and sheer teasing joy as I look at you- a soft chuckle arises in my throat and bubble past my lips as I look at you carefully and glance around a bit before turning back to you./ "What happened to you Jihwan? Really what happened?" /I whisper and move closer so only you can hear me- seeing that other servants are around and about in the space we're in./

@Ⓒ Kim Hyuna *my hands work automatically as I work through my jumbled up thoughts and I think back to before the entire break up and all events leading up to it. I can't say I don't miss our relationship and there wasn't many problems besides me. None that I could think of, at least. Just like now, I let my work absorb me and I always put people second. I even put my own health after my work because I strived for success way more than anything healthy. It wasn't my plan to live this life, as a servant but I put every ounce of myself into it anyway, knowing that it was for the best. Even then so, I reminisced on every part of our relationship and I couldn't find that we had anything wrong. Besides the fact that you were a concubine and it was hard to accept at first, I soon got over it. At this point, I was being smacked over the head for being so absent-minded today, once again having to be brought back to reality* "Ah.. come on now-" *I rub the back of my head and sigh heavily before turning to see you wandering the kitchen, my mouth quirking in a short smirk before I scratch my head and gesture lazily to the door* "You know- you could have just gone through there. Would've made your life much easier..."

@ⒾⓈ Jeon Jihwan /Heaving a deep sigh I just simply roll my eyes at you as in a 'duhhh' manner of saying, 'duh I'm a concubine. What do you even expect.' But of course you may not even notice it but I just shake my head and look at you leaving as my eyes follow your trail- my gaze set firm on your body and I heave a deep sigh as the past comes back to haunt me. I cannot say that it's a bad past with you, definitely not. It's something nice to remember because you're really something special even now to me. Even though we lost contact you're still that person I cared for deeply minus the entire argument leading to our 'faithful' break up- but then again, maybe it was hard for you to kiss me, touch me and all thos other things to do with me. Knowing that other men do that to me too, I've always felt guilty back then to be who I am but I had it in the back of my head. I want to become Princess once again and claim back what's mines. Snapping out of my thought I whisper a word to another Concubine, Kyungri./ "I need to get some fresh air I'm feeling sick- cover for me please, I'm sure he won't miss one little girl leaving." /i snort and she smile sweetly with a nod of her head as I head out and look around for you- realizing I'm outside I head back in and curse under my breath./ "Really Hyuna? Still no sense of direction.." /i grumble under my breath as I walk into the kitchen- scanning with imploring amber colored orbs for you./

@Ⓒ Kim Hyuna *mumbling a few curses under my breath as I straighten out the tea set, I let the thought of it actually being you settle in and the little sassy demeanor you immediately cast helps a little. my brain starts to output a thousand questions when the fact does stick like glue and I have to mentally compose myself before I glance around to see if anyone has noticed my dazed state. Luckily, I'm a servant and I should've known no one was paying me much attention in the first place, making this a little easier on my behalf* "what are /you/ doing here?" *realizing that my question is a little unneeded, seeing how as you were a concubine when I met you, I hold up a hand and set down the rest of the stuff in my arms before heading back to the kitchen. I gesture for you to follow but it's more like a meet-me-when-you-can-get-out kind of thing as I disappear back into the kitchen to finish up. my train of thought is rerouted as I try to work as I usually do and memories flood back in a rush, making me a little dazed once more until someone snaps me out of my reverie and I finish up quietly but efficiently for the rest of the dinner*

@ⒾⓈ Jeon Jihwan /I widen my eyes and my hands instinctively reach out to help but then I realize I'm here for a reason and i my lips as I pull back my hand and wring my fingers as I fold them on my lap- if it was someone else. Of course, I'd be feeling bad and would have rushed to help them also- but it's 'you' and I couldn't have helped that but I just settle for waiting there and looking back at you with a light in my brow that's asking, 'what? Something's on my face?' You of all people should know I'd be sassy like that but in a light and playful manner however, I cannot help how my breath hitches as I slowly flicker my gaze around the table- noting how no one are really paying attention to you. Much less me I mouth at you./ "What are you doing here?!" /Besides you carrying a tray I can only imagine where this answer is going- that you're a servant of some sort- I sure do hope that's not true because even though you were always studying your work and not me, I didn't want something bad to happen to you. This is something bad in my eyes however, because it's kind of a slave job./

@Ⓒ Kim Hyuna *grabbing a hair pin before entering the kitchen, I quickly pin my hair up and away from my face as I look around for a certain maid, catching her just in time as she scurries pass* Did you catch what the dinner was for? *sighs softly as she shrugs and runs off to finish her work; glances around for a short moment before someone presses a tray into my hands and pushes me out into the dining area and this way, I get a better view of who's all here as I set the tray on the table and bow shortly. A few generals, governors, the emperor of course, concubines as it seems. Nothing too out of the ordinary. I leave back into the kitchen to grab more trays and I click my tongue as I get tray on top of tray piled up into my arms. No room to complain, I heave all the trays to their rightful places on the table and take another glance around, this time my gaze landing on someone all too familiar and it catches me so off guard that I almost drop the last tray, apologizing quickly before my gaze falls on you once more*

/Heaving a soft sigh -I just cannot keep on baring to do the same goddamn thing over and over again, but of course it's a given seeing as I'm a concubine. As I hear the other males speaking and some women here and there around the large table- I take my place at the back seeing as the Governor invited us to come along, just some girls for some entertainment perhaps? I'm not even sure of the reason but as it's our job it's our duties to do so. I glance around a little warily as I take in the servants bustling about and scurrying here and there but my eyes cannot seem to leave the Governor as he speaks about the secret affairs. After all I'm pleased to have been chosen to come to this dinner because I can get some intel from what's going around us and I can help myself with this dire information to get to my goal- but of course it's tricky. Because just as I was zooming in far too much to listen one of the men around the table snapped at me./ "Concubine! Mind your own business." /i startled a little but bow my head apologetically- scowling a bit but glance away for him to not to see it- and that's when my eyes catch a familiar person walking around, but no this cannot be./
