[ he shakes his head. ]

I don't, no. I suppose Qi Rong and I were raised close to each other, but... [

we. all see how that went. ]

Why do you ask?

[winebar]

Well, having one, you do have someone else to compare yourself to from the day you are born.

[ oh... his brows knit, immediately, expression compassionate. ]

Elder or younger...?

[winebar]

Elder. Though it occurred to me the other day that I am now the age he was when he died, ten years ago.

[yueshen]

I'm sorry for your loss. [ ten years ago or otherwise - the sympathy is still important. ]

What was he like, if I may ask?

[winebar]

... He was a paragon of justice. A light shining on the darkness of London, dedicated to his work and his family. He was the sort of man people felt drawn to, always ready with a smile and a joke. I owe so much of who I am to him.
