[He just sits there for a second - honestly, he'd asked, but he's barely listening. There are so many problems everyone is having and three people are dead and he's so fucking worried about so many of you fucks?
just reaching over to put a hand on gu yun's face, turning it towards himself.]
I still haven't been given flowers or jewelry, so I'm still allowed to be angry.
he's not really expecting that, ready to move into business mode - as his face is turned towards molly, his expression is just a bit surprised, though he meets his gaze easily, mouth pulling into a wry smile as usual. ]
When I learn to summon them in my sleep, I'll bring you a mountain of plum blossoms. [ with a soft huff, and a twinkle in his eyes: ] This humble servant is deeply apologetic.
Good. You can carry them to me with your fucked up little skeleton hand. Bastard.
[Business is stupid, and also for two minutes from now. People are dead. People could still die? He does not trust the record of the past two weekends. He would like at least one kiss that is somewhat good to start with actually. Doing just that, leaning in gently and giving him just a chaste brush of the lips.]
Fine. Accepted. Let it be known, the Dragon Emperor knows the meaning of mercy.
[ is it rude to laugh in the middle of a kiss? probably. it's a soft, amused noise, gentle, the corners of his mouth lifted into a smile. whether if that's for the first comment or the last, who knows. ]
How lucky, to serve someone so benevolent. [ that comment comes dripping with sarcasm, but the undercurrent of fondness that goes with it is near obvious. (also, because, there's only one emperor he's quite so pious towards; it's easy to fall into the affectionate nature of the comment.) as molly pulls away, gu yun follows after, and kisses him again, just for the sake of doing so. it's soft, just as gentle. the kind of kiss you definitely share with your bro. ]
I am something of a bastard. [ a huff. ] But, if I disappear like that, I intend to always come back. Skeleton hand or otherwise.
It's alright because he's laughing too, not hard, just that same sort of soft and amused noise as he's chased.]
Good to know. Maybe just give me, I don't know-- five whole days without having to frantically worry about someone or other disappearing or otherwise coming to harm?
[... Anyway! That got a little real. Sitting back.]
No promises. [ considering the chaos of this place, he's going to go like. two days before worry, probably. there's sincerity to it, though, a gently amused warmth that colors his tone.
....but, yeah. agreed. let's move on and away from the customs of sweetly kissing your homies in flower gardens. the motion to sit is a little more awkward than he would like - the damned lack of sensitivity in his arm is throwing him off, and he ends up just leaning back against the bench. a dream, huh. ] What'd you dream about? If it's me, I'm flattered.
[On personal request, Mollymauk will now gently take that numb wrist and hold it.]
Only every other day.
[Then lifting the arm and gently smacking gu yun in the face with his own horrible little skeleton hand? don't be obnoxious.]
It was of eyes. Not red ones, in case you're wondering. Sloth knocked me out cold with a kiss and I can "see where a piece of evidence" is now. Or something.
[ gu yun feels the sudden inexplicable urge to smack ming yi with his skeleton hand ]
[ i mean, no, he doesn't. being hit with your own outside bones is a weird sensation when you can't feel them. mostly because he can still feel it on his face? rude. his nose wrinkles up, eyes shutting, a little exaggerated and altogether amused with himself and his little jokes. ]
... Oh, who's the favorite of the Avatars now? [ a bit teasing. ] Sounds useful, though. I imagine we'll be busy tomorrow - best to hold onto it for the crucial moment.
They should have given this one to someone actually smart . . .
[now he has like. 12 eyes? it's too many goddamn eyes.]
I thought - should we end up in a situation like last time. Being told to look around the room we are in for evidence. Perhaps it could be of use there. Or if we're struggling to think of places to search.
[Who knows if it functions exactly like that, though.]
Probably. [ he's fully expecting to get smacked with his own skeleton hand again for that, though it devolves into snickering because he's clearly kidding. ]
In all seriousness, I think that's what I'd likely use it for, too, so. Sounds like it was gifted to the right person. [ you're FINE molly, help us find that evidence with your special eyes. ] I'll try to do as much as I can tomorrow to organize things.
[ maybe the third time will be the charm? we failed tutorial so i doubt it ]
