... I'm fine. That was a while back, anyway.

[shiftingwinds]

...

[just because something happened a long time ago doesn't necessarily mean it doesn't hurt anymore... although it does up the chances of it hurting less, at least.]

Do you mind if I ask... what happened after that?

[enfangs]

[...

he shrugs, deliberately casual.]

Well, we lost. Redhead's side won, and most of us died. [he doesn't sound horribly torn up about it, though, and that's genuine.] I got lucky.

[shiftingwinds]

...well... I'm glad luck was with you, at least.

[enfangs]

... You do realize I was working for the guy trying to take over the world, right?

[shiftingwinds]

We're not talking about what you were doing then, we're talking about the fact that it's good you're alive now.

[enfangs]

[... well, he looks away because he doesn't really know what to say to that.]

[shiftingwinds]

[shi qingxuan, who does not have cute little teacakes to silence herself with this time, keeps chattering to fill the silence.]

Besides, it seemed like it was... complicated. I've made assumptions and been reprimanded for them already for not knowing the context, I won't make that mistake again! If there's something you want to clarify, then you can clarify it, but the only thing I really know is that things seemed tough for you...

[enfangs]

[he lets out a scoff.]

Kind of soft-hearted of you, don't you think?

[shiftingwinds]

People keep saying that like it's a bad thing.

[enfangs]

It can be, y'know.

[shiftingwinds]

But it doesn't have to be.

[enfangs]

... You're the stubborn type, huh.

[shiftingwinds]

Is that really so surprising?

[enfangs]

No. I'm starting to think it's a god thing.

[shiftingwinds]

[hm]

...has Ming-xiong been stubborn with you too?

[enfangs]

Huh? Well, not him in particular, I guess.

[shiftingwinds]

...ohh, so you meant a different god! Not someone from here.

[enfangs]

... Yeah. I've had way too much experience with one.

[it's said in an exasperated voice, but there's. buried fondness in there.]

[shiftingwinds]

"Way too much," huh?

[enfangs]

I had to literally carry him across a city because he fell unconscious and wouldn't wake up due to being broken from some weird god shit.

[shiftingwinds]

[okay, that makes her laugh]

Sounds like he was lucky to have you there to help him!

[enfangs]

Yeah, but I feel like I'm the unlucky one!

[shiftingwinds]

[pats his shoulder]

Not a fan of carrying gods around?

[enfangs]

He's high maintenance and constantly getting into trouble and way too soft for his own good, so the rest of us gotta keep cleaning after his messes.
