Oh, it's great! There's this little milk tea place me and Guinaifen go all the time, you'd love it, everybody does. They do stories there! Like there's this guy that has all these really old war stories that he performs for crowds, it's awesome.
I mean, my mom works me pretty hard and I get tired of doing sword drills all day, but it's okay. All the other stuff makes up for it, and... I think I'm pretty ready for what's coming. I've always wanted to be out here, protecting people.
[ ooogh. his heart is warm, to hear all of this - both the delightful story of the yaoqing, and the young girl's resolve. taair sets a hand to his heart. ]
I would love that. [ softly. it sounds like a dream. ] And that is a fine motivation - I think it's one that you and I very much share. There is only so much we can do, to stand on the sidelines.
...If you end up in any trouble, please don't hesitate to call, Miss Sushang. I would like to return you home to your mother safely.
[ she softens a bit too, and wraps an arm around him, a sidehug. she's not shy at all. ]
I could see it, you know! Pictures always show you what a person's soul looks like captured on the page, and I could see right away that you've got a good spirit.
[ shakes him gently. ]
You don't worry about me, though! I'm the person that stands in front so you all don't get hurt. You healers are the most important backbone. My uncle tells me that all the time, though... I think he's kidding sometimes.
[ oh! his little head wings go !! briefly, but - well. he settles, after a moment, and gently returns the favor - though he does get rattled, it makes him laugh, softly. ]
Doesn't matter, I'll teach you! Come on, you gotta have all the fun you can!
[ and she'll drag him out to the bonfire area properly to dance to some of the music that's been playing, because she has absolutely no shame whatsoever. ]

Your uncle. Is he a healer as well?
no subject
Anyway, he's confusing sometimes but he always made me really great food, so that's a plus!

[ (we did ) ]
And that is wonderful. It sounds like the two of you are very close - he must miss you terribly.

But - hey, enough of that sad stuff. Let's do something crazy! You wanna dance?
no subject
Me? I've never - oh, Miss Sushang, I don't think I'd be a good dance partner...
