( Were... all of Wei Ying's casualties murdered by his dead? No blood on his own hands? )

I treasure it.

Jiang Wanyin and I often dallied. Forgive our wrongdoings.

[weifinder]

( he actually squawks when he reads that, and starts laughing, disbelieving. )

You and my brother? In the springtimes of your youth?!

( this would explain so much of what's cold silence messed up between you two now??? )

[downswing]

We rallied during your absence.

[weifinder]

That's one way to find comfort, I guess?

[downswing]

It troubles you. Apologies.

[weifinder]

No, no, a little, I'm... confused? How you both managed to be like that with each other given how you refuse to talk or not kill each other now.

[downswing]

Your death sundered us.

We might gave continued with you elsewise.

[weifinder]

Lan Zhan, I resent nothing of you or my brother. I celebrate your lives, not yearn for your ends.

[downswing]

Perhaps one day, again.

[weifinder]

... The two of you, or... all three of us?

[downswing]

Together.

[weifinder]

Your appetites are surprising, Lan Zhan, but okay. Perhaps, one day.

[downswing]

Apologies. Presumed.

The Lan keep such matters familial. Pehaps Wei Ying shies.

[weifinder]

So you're saying should your brother arrive, you'd likewise be so inclined?

[downswing]

Brother partners readily.

[weifinder]

So restraint is advised to spare everyone else the intensity of Lans released, I see, I see.

I even like it, I think, at least in small, singular Lan doses for now.

[downswing]

I accept that privilege.

[weifinder]

Good.

Anyway, the baskets, the cart, for the rabbits?

[downswing]

You think it wise tobtransport them?

[weifinder]

Lan Zhan.

They were meat rabbits.

Do you know someone else who'd keep them as pets? The two from Sa-Hareth were well homed, but these are... from lean parts.

[downswing]

Allow me their guardianship.

[weifinder]

You already have it, if I do.

[downswing]

A kindly gift. I must retaliate.

[weifinder]

If you wish! We're married, we can do nice things for each other without need to retaliate, ah? We can gift endlessly, likewise receive with an open heart.

Also, sing to me.

[downswing]

Restless?
