[ okay first of all, xie lian has never seen a gun in his life, so he does blink a little at rochalizo's rifle, but this is more important! so.
his voice is quiet as he speaks, very serious. ]
...Before anyone even said anything, when we were all discussing where we slept - he said, quite loudly, that he was alone in his room, yet no one can account for where his roommate was.
[ ... ] Qi Rong is... you were correct, in that I am familiar with him, because we are related. He's my cousin. Though, he is currently much older than me, his behavior has not changed at all since he was younger, when I knew him.
[ rochalizo please. this startles xie lian - he seems to be completely lost in his thoughts where he's sitting, a cup of completely full tea in his hands. san lang startles from where he is curled in a ball in xie lian's lap - his tail stands straight up.
[ just after the mini event, xie lian makes his way back into his room! it's been nice having rochalizo as a roommate (he has been sleeping very well comparatively), and since the room seems to be empty, he's able to shut the door for some relative peace, moving to sit on the bed.
...and then starting undo his bandages from earlier this week - it seems that xie lian's injuries opened back up again because of all of this crab fighting. well, if he just bandages it quickly before rochalizo gets back, no one's going to know... ]
[ he says this so, so very mildly, and offers rochalizo a smile. actually, xie lian looks a little better than he did at trial! like he's been healed some. ]
After being in that place, I think I am enjoying time under the stars again. Fresh air is good for the soul, don't you think?
I've been tasked with sharing a secret with a few people about myself.
[ and xie lian trusts rochalizo, so he feels he can say this one! he takes a deep breath. ]
Um. Well! I am His Royal Highness, the Crown Prince of Xian Le, Flower in One Hand, Sword in the Other, as I told the group when we discussed such bits of nobility, but I was not entirely truthful. That title was given to me not because I am a prince - though I am - but, rather...
..because I am the martial god of the Central Plains...? It is one of my Heavenly titles.
[ i really forgot i shared this info with you for a minute
anyway. xie lian is standing with his hands clasped in front of him, looking up at the mosaic. though he outwardly appears quite calm, san lang in qilin form is pacing, sniffing at the ground. ]
... It is not so odd. Truthfully, gods can visit or stay in any temple they like... though, the gods of my realm are different and not so powerful or ominpotent, as this one seems to be.
[ now that an effect from earlier in the week has lifted, and there are no more spontaneous hugs (maybe?) xie lian is coming to find rochalizo wherever he is! ]
xie lian's coming to find rocha wherever he is after a long, long few hours of futile searching, of helping with rika, of - everything. everything is garbage. ]
Rochalizo. [ spotting him, though, he appears to be holding a little pack of these lil things ] ...here. Take one of these. If you're going to be searching tonight, anymore, they'll help keep your hands warm.
[ its already been warmed to the touch. science. ]
