--just kidding. the light smack gets a peal of laughter out of him, this time, shitty and pleased with himself. the worst! absolutely the worst. gu yun holds both of his hands up in surrender for the bottle, though, still snickering as they get resettled.

Your— what was it? Ward? [Tilting his head for a moment.] I’m sure it can’t be all that bad. You seem responsible. I can think of worse things than to be under your care.

And it wasn’t all that terrible for me. I was raised by [a beat] a halfling couple, in the Empire. They were kind and attentive enough, but of course, growing up behorned and lavender in a town like that leads to scrutiny. I ran away and joined the circus when I was a teenager. I fit in much better there, you see.

Oh, thank you. I think. [ a bit tongue in cheek, there. ] I hope he'd agree.
