He's very reliable and I'm glad he's by your side, and you by his. [ he smiles, a warm fondness filling his chest. ] You have my thanks and also my word, that I will not betray your trust and that I am here for whatever you may need.
[ the way xie lian brightens up puts him at ease, eyebrows raising at the curiosity, he finds it kind of cute? hello?? ]
Something of myself? Hm...as a child I was taught to play piano and violin. I don't play nearly as often as I used to, but both are a source of relaxation for me whenever I feel stuck. [ smiles ] I do hope that was to your liking. And what about you, Xie Lian?
Thank you, Mr. Diluc. I will take those words with care.
[ what an important thing to be trusted. xie lian nods.
but!! the story makes him smile, fond. he likes learning about others! and besides - after the town meeting this week, it seems that's what they're all supposed to do. ]
That's wonderful. Have you had the chance to play much, here? [ i just think a top level of diluc playing a violin would be very sexy ] It is wonderful - thank you very much for sharing that with me, as well.
As for myself... [ hmmmm... he taps his chin. what can he talk about that he hasn't yet - ah! ] I was raised in a palace, and rarely had the chance to interact with others until I began cultivating. When I finally was allowed to do so, I was introduced to the two people I consider my dearest friends. Feng Xin, first - a fine warrior, I have known since I was fourteen. I suppose he is my bodyguard, though really, he is my best friend. He is a truly good person, beyond anything, though he has a bit of a temper.... and a bit of a pottymouth.
And then - more recently, Mu Qing, who is my attendant, and also a fine warrior. He wields a saber like almost no one I've ever seen - a true and natural talent. [ ah... swords... ] To be honest, sometimes, I think you remind me of him a little.
I have not, maybe in the next world I will find the time. [ that would be very sexi of him. :writing_hand: ]
[ oh. oh no. diluc continues to be so fond. xie lian is too good!!
he smiles as he listens to xl speak of dear friends, diluc thinks about the ones he has back home and that makes him homesick. but he pushes it down, focusing only on the story being told now. ]
They both sound very dependable. [ oh? he blinks and tilts his head slightly. ] Is that so? What an honor that is, then.
[ it's nice to talk about feng xin and mu qing, but... admittedly, it makes xie lian feel a little homesick, too. his smile is very gentle, as ever, but a little sad. ]
They are - the very most. They have been through the worst of times with me, and never once strayed from my side. It's been strange, not to have them here, truthfully, but... to find true friends in such a situation of adversity is just as valued, and just as important.
[ and! yes!! friendship. he tips his head. ]
You two both use similar weapons, and have a similar fighting spirit. He can be taciturn, sometimes, and even brusque, but.. he cares very, very much. It's quite obvious.
[ somewhere mu qing just shuddered, in the void. ]
