[ valid! xie lian does not seem to mind the company, at all, and nods to diluc as he gets settled, picking up another piece of paper to burn the corner of it, letting it catch and slowly turn to ashes. ]
...I'm alright. [ he appreciates the concern, too, and gives him a little smile, thankful. ] Thank you, for your help earlier. Both for volunteering, and for coming along - you were the whole reason we were even able to get another piece of evidence to catch him.
Are you alright, after all of that? I... am sorry, for all of the trouble that Qi Rong caused.
[ he really should have asked before he sat down, he usually has better manners! but it's soup brain hours, so it's fine.
he watches as xie lian offers the small pieces to the fire, nodding. ] Happy to help. And it did end up leading back to my room, so it was a good thing I did.
No need to apologize, it was clear that there was no wrangling him. He dug his own grave and now he will lie in it. [ there's a pause, diluc closing his eyes before speaking again. ]
I am still processing it all. [ canopus pokes her little turtle head out of his pocket, diluc looks down and removes her and sets her on the sand. she poofs into a mainecoon, settling onto diluc's lap and giving a meow at xie lian. ]
