I too may earn coin.

A gentleman offers three sheep and a vase for you in matrimony.

[downswing]

And you forgive him?

[weifinder]

No.

I can understand, to an extent. I don't forgive so much as... let go.

[downswing]

Easier, when you did not live with the consequences.

[weifinder]

No, I had myself alone to blame, as far as I knew.

[downswing]

And an estranged sword to fall on.

[weifinder]

Endless darkness for contemplation...!

[downswing]

You are too readily dramatic.

[weifinder]

We're both dramatic, it's one of our charm points!

[downswing]

I, dramatic?

[weifinder]

Exactly!

[downswing]

You presume.

[weifinder]

I know you.

[downswing]

You are half of me, you fool.

[weifinder]

And half your dramatic flare!

[downswing]

And what have I inherited from Wei Ying?

[weifinder]

Charisma and wit. ☺️

[downswing]

My gifts of renown.

[weifinder]

Just because too many people are too foolish to understand the generosity of these traits within you doesn't mean you lack either!

It just means you tend to glare more first.

I love you better than breath in lungs.

[weifinder]

.. I'm never going to be tired of hearing you say things like this.

I love you as birds chase the seasons: ceaselessly.

[downswing]

Even dramatic?

[weifinder]

As one of the few who has ever felt it worthwhile to be dramatic for me, yes. Always. Even when you're feeling strongly of vinegar.

[downswing]

What is this vinegar?

[weifinder]

Jealousy, Lan Zhan. I keep finding it a surprise.

[downswing]

I trust you completely.

It is the world.
