[AS IF SHE HAS THE ANSWER? but maybe her emotions are answer enough... there's a sense of disquiet here, her concern clearly evident.
There was a time when she wanted to be on her own. When she thought "companions" were just another word for "strong people you can tag along with so you can use them and leave them whenever you want to", but that had been born from her innate selfishness, and her inability to trust others enough to let them in.]
...But Kim Dokja's different.
[...]
He's not the type of guy who only looks out for himself. And he wouldn't have chosen to be alone in a completely new world. That guy -- he knows there's strength in numbers. That's how he chooses to survive.
[her concern grows stronger as she hesitates, lingering on the word 'survive'.]
[ Because Joonghyuk remembers Dokja's introduction, but that was after Sooyoung sent her memories to another avatar's body. The man seemed... Lonely, but didn't quite seem bothered by it. Instead, Dokja was bothered by the sorrow in the stories he loves.
Surviving is important, but they all survive for different reasons. Joonghyuk wonders, ]
[To both those questions. She can tell that something's wrong, but the reason behind it? She feels like force won't get her that answer, even if she turned dokja upside down and shook him like a maraca]
What I do know is that he's serious about not leaving you alone.
[So maybe that's enough of a reason, even if it's one shaped out of absurd amounts of guilt.]

I don't think he has any. ...I'm not sure he even cares.
[she thinks, forgetting again that they're just broadcasting their thoughts to each other]

This doesn't sound like Kim Dokja.
no subject
then again, who else could she talk to when it comes to kim dokja?]
He's been here all by himself for five months, and he didn't rely on anyone during that time.
He could have asked a Pleroma to help him Godsblood, but he didn't want to.

What does he have to live for here?

[ For once. It makes him angry to think that Dokja only finds a will and a way when there are other people, as if they define his worth.
It shouldn't be that way. ]
no subject
Or maybe you need to stop worrying him??
