duologs | april catch-all for han sooyoung

[Sooyoung is currently perched on the base of a large statue koi fish (apparently commemorative? the words "in honor of the 50th national golden carp contest" is inscribed along the scales) because ~~she likes to feel tall~~ everyone knows that the high ground is where you wanna be when you're scoping things out, even if said things are... that.]

Seriously... why the hell did they make this...

[She continues to stare at the immense roomba spinning wildly down the street as it mows down a perfectly fine hedge and a cute dog house, fortunately there is no dog inside said house,]

If you're gonna make it clean, then shouldn't it be... I don't know -- a lot smaller than it is right now? Like why would anyone make a human-sized vacuum unless they were planning to kill people with it too?

[IT JUST SEEMS LIKE A BAD IDEA, FAM... Surely, her current quest companion agrees with her? She looks down from her roost to see if he's still there, you know, just in case he was roomba-ed in the bg while she wasn't looking. look, sometimes things like that can happen,]

[For someone who's false memories are all built around k-dramas, Sooyoung looks less than enthused to be amid the hustle and bustle of this one. But she's still here, even if she looks more and more impatient as the shoot goes on.

at some point she steals a couple of bagels from the table reserved for actors only and offers one to Yoojin,]

How many of these can you stuff in your pockets?

[ROBBERY?]

[there is something very funny and also dissonant about being asked to take pictures of beautiful people mid-apocalyptic storm, but Sooyoung can respect the hustle, especially if she'll profit from it at one point or another. Anyway, as soon as she spots Ruby in the ON world, she'll snap her fingers at the other girl and jerk a thumb over her shoulder,]

I know where to find beautiful people. Follow me.

[THAT'S IT? NO PREAMBLE?]

[Vash gets a special prompt since they're (vine voice) roommates, in that Sooyoung will stand ominously (all 5'2'' of her) in the threshold of their suite, eyes narrowed on Vash as if she's just now realizing who he is. So Sooyoung doesn't talk to her suitemates that often, it's fine. She's saving them the headache of having to endure her company. Probably.

She points an accusatory(?) finger at him, and while her words are harsh, her tone is more curious than anything. how tall is vash is he like 8 ft, he seems like a twink noodle]

Who the hell are you?

[tmw she's gained and lost suitemates in the course of a month,]

[i should also harass alfred with itsuki... imagine i put itsuki prompts in this log that's for hsy only,

Sooyoung flips through the script of Summertime Sweet Exes, brow furrowed the longer she reads. Then she closes the book and lightly thwaps Alfred on the shoulder with it,]

How are you with romance? Can you fake a make-out scene?

[she's asking because she feels like the answer will be no]

[alfred is here because he'll generally help out with anything at least once but he

blinks at the question.]

I... what? Come again?

[ HELLO??? Peace is of course in his arms, eying the offered bagel with a squint and sniff. wtf is that... he lightly bats at it

Yoojin, however, looks exasperated ]

Don't tell me you're suddenly broke... do you need me to buy you some groceries?

[ DON'T LIVE OFF BAGELS ]

[sometime in the day, yjh gets a ping in his inbox!]

why did u deactivate your socials

[hmmmm this isn't a no.......

Sooyoung thumbs open the book, settling on a seemingly random page and then hoisting it up for Alfred to take a look at. Her finger is pointed directly at the "and then they make out" line as if this will help Alfred understand her question any better.]

Are you any good at acting?

[CAN PEACE EAT A BAGEL?? Sooyoung looks intrigued enough to break a smaller piece off for him, don't poison peace like this hsy

She does smirk a little at the question though, though it fades into a frown. She's not sure she likes how familiar that sounded? Was she just an irresponsible adult in this AU..... spoilers yeah]

It's just a habit.

[STEALING THINGS?]

-- Speaking of habits, don't you think this is weird?

[the way they've been living in this AU for months and hsy has only questioned this out loud now,]

[alfred isn't sure if he likes where this is going but unfortunately he's not the kind of person to just walk out now because of it.]

I can honestly say I've never tried.

[ Sooyoung is so sweet, sorta, even if she could potentially be unknowingly poisoning Peace maybe. no, his monster constitution isn't that weak. too bad Peace just sniffs at it some more before he leans away with a wrinkle of his nose. smells boring no thanks.

Yoojin probably can fit a few bagels but he doesn't think that will help the situation so he doesn't voice that out loud. ]

A habit... [ a considering thought, before he blinks at her question. ]

I would be lying if I said it wasn't. But, don't think everyone thinks that way, probably only feels weird to some of us.

[Sooyoung looks down at the camera in her gremlin hands, a thoughtful expression on her face. Then, she pushes it into Dokja's hands.]

Here, take a picture of me.

[the quest asked for beautiful people and she obviously qualifies?]

[:)]

Right, you're like Dimitri. [what does this mean,

she flips through the script,]

Let's start with something simpler than romance then... Action? Melodrama?

[ Oh my god they were roommates!!

Vash is like 6' but he has short king energy so she might as well be towering over him. He is shrinking as I type this. He's freezing like a deer in headlights with big sad baby deer eyes. He's just a little baby man please miss Sooyoung ma'am.

He's also holding a comically large box of assorted pastries. This is enough pastries for a small army. Has he massively overcompensated? Yes. ]

I'm, uh - we're roommates. I just got here so I got these for everyone. [ Is this even how it works he doesn't know he's never had a roommate before.

Belatedly: ] I'm Vash. [ He's still getting used to the idea that he can even introduce himself to people without starting a gunfight.

Juggling pastries precariously into one arm so he can hold out his hand to shake. ] It's good to meet you Miss..?

[ Glances down at the camera suddenly in his hands, then looks at Sooyoung. ]

... Why?

[ Is the beautiful person in the room with us now? ]

Why would I need them? The notifications are annoying.

[WHY IS SOOYOUNG ON TOP OF A STATUE, HELP.

More importantly, WHY DIDN'T SHE HELP KAVEH UP!! RUDE!!! Fortunately he has not yet been roomba-ed, though it's only a matter of time. He's taken refuge behind the statue, himself, and he's peering grouchily at the machine rampaging around.]

I'd like to know the very same thing! Sure, there could be benefits to a machine that alternates between street cleaning and small-scale tasks, but this things clearly wasn't built with that in mind. I'll bet the mechanisms inside aren't even intended for true perpetual motion, they've just been shoddily modified by amateurs. [Kaveh your STEM side is showing]

you could have turned notifs off like a normal person?
oh wait i forgot ur not normal

[why is dokja so SLOW!!! she immediately aims an elbow at his ribs for the insult,]

What, you want me to take one of you instead?

[MISTER SQUID?]

[BECAUSE SHE LIKES TO FEEL TALL

Sooyoung takes her eyes off the giant roomba so she can blink down at Kaveh instead, kaveh the nerd in you is showing.]

Let me guess, you could do better?

[is he just a nerd or is he an insane scientist type who makes killer robots, except better? There's a distinction here that's important to Sooyoung, because either one could be useful to her. Which means she now has a vested interest in not letting this guy get roombaed.... she guesses....]

Actually, if you have any ideas on how we can blow it up, then I'm all ears.

[why is blowing it up the solution]

[her bagel overture... rejected... she noms it instead, chewing as she considers Yoojin's answer,]

That's weird too. [the discrepancy... the difference between those who live at Dodo House and rest of the Crane City inhabitants,

speaking of, she turns her gaze on the extras milling about, preparing for the next scene. what is this world, if not another performance? what are their alternate memories, if not a script they're meant to follow? She thinks again how weird hers is, how similar to her past it is and how different it is. One of those differences is standing right here with her, her supposed brother, family that she feels both a connection to and distrusts,]

But it's not like you're a normal person. [RUDE? for once she doesn't mean it in a rude way,] Or are pets like that normal in your world?

[HE'S SO TALL AND FOR WHAT

but Sooyoung is satisfied by Vash's apparent short king energy, as she is with any person she feels like she could instinctively bully, and lowers her hand, nose wrinkling a little at the term of address,]

Han Sooyoung. Just call me Sooyoung.

[miss is worlds better than ma'am, but still. she eyes the mountain of pastries in his arms. a nice person would offer to take some? instead, she edges away from the door so Vash can have space to squeeze through,]

Do you have any weird habits I should know about?

[perfectly normal roommate behavior]

[PUTS THEM IN KDRAMA RAMA

Sooyoung is the type to start a coup for the director's chair, so it's probably a bit of a surprise that she's on the sidelines right now, probably right in Matsui's vicinity? She's watching the sixteenth take of the scene before them, a supposed reunion between the main couple after one of them catches the other cheating? it should be spicy, but the vibe is Boring with a capital B.... it needs something else... something else that starts with b...]

They need Buzen.

[JUST UNPROMPTED]

[just kidding im answering this first

Mostly because it's easier since HE JUST LOOKS HER WAY THE SECOND SHE SAYS BUZEN. He's just attuned to Buzen's name... He could truly be checked so far out and he'll hear Buzen and immediately rocket 500 lightyears back to the present time. Does he even know what they're supposed to be doing here?? Jury's out.

More importantly!!]

—Buzen? Do they?

[Everything can be improved by adding Buzen so he's not arguing there.]
