[ it appears kotetsu has been in the plaza for a bit longer and has been scanning things from the stage, caught up in some thoughts.
that doesn't stop him from noticing xie lian taking interest in the different wares of the area. no reason not to be friendly, so he hops off the stage and heads over toward him with a wave. ]
Hey there. How're you holding up.
[ ...and please don't look at his arm that has "herlock sholmes" signed on it in green marker. yes, his sleeves are rolled up for this. ]
[ thankfully xie lian is like the last person in the world to take any interest in romantic drama (?) (i hope you got love arrowed) so he does not notate the green marker tattoo, instead glancing up when addressed.
he offers kotetsu a smile and a little bow of his head in greeting from where he's kneeling. ] Hello, Mr. Kotetsu - I'm quite alright. I've always been the type to heal quickly; thank you very much for your concern.
[ bless your pure heart, xie lian. but also, don't worry about it. ]
Glad to hear that.
[ he won't press too deep into the affairs. they know what happened here. from the fight, it's obvious there's always been turmoil. it isn't his place to prod. ]
Not bad, all things considered. Still taking in the change of atmosphere.
Mm! [ he brightens with the subject change, though, gesturing up at the bubble around them. ] It is truly beautiful, isn't it? I've been to many magical places, but I've never been completely underwater, before.
