[There's an unmistakable accent when Seonho says it, but he repeats it once more as if to get the hang of it. He finds that he enjoys saying it. He's not used to names longer than the three syllables of his own. It's pretty, lyrical. And it's not something Seonho would have guessed -- but if the reveal of her real name doesn't surprise him, then her behavior certainly does. Seonho listens to that pause, the way her voice grows softer.
Is she embarrassed by the name, or by the telling? Whichever it is, Seonho cannot honestly say he dislikes it. He prefers seeing her like this over seeing her frightened -- or concerned.
also, she's cute, okay. he will admit that. to himself though, in an effort not to embarrass her (for now).]
Mari, then. [the smile on his face is warm, if also maayybeee a little teasing] If I am to be your intrepid rescuer, then it would make sense for us to be close.
[close enough for first names, close enough to tease, close enough to throw in their lot with each other, instead of alone.]
[ When she hears her name spoken in his voice her heart skips a beat before she even realizes it occurred.
That hasn't happened in a while. Monts, no, Mari, tries to hold back her smile, but it's in vain. She's pleased because the use of her name is for those she's placed her trust in. ]
It's... Huh. Wow, it's been a while since I let anyone call me that.
[ She never had the chance to tell anyone on the island her given name after all. ]
But yeah. I consider this whole situation... Close.
[Amusement shines in Seonho's eyes for a brief moment,]
I'm grateful for this honor. [mari's smile....... cute.....] And I'd be happy to tell you something in return, if there's anything you're curious about. It seems only fair.
[this is ONE wish opportunity that may NEVER happen again (jk it'll def happen again) maybe,]
