... Maybe I didn't realize this would have a different effect from when you were little. Surely it would make far more sense that I would be used to it, and yet...
... Nevertheless. I'm sure I would be able to keep my composure. Were you not the one who claimed to enjoy the... ( .... hand gestures............ ) faces I make?

... Do whatever you like.
no subject
Perhaps I'll call you gege in private.
no subject
... Are you trying to kill me?
no subject
Haha, you said I could do whatever I like, gege.
no subject
... And if doing whatever you like only brings more harm than good?
no subject
Then why would you allow it in the first place?
[ give it a full minute— ]
Gege.

And yet?

no subject
Haha, do you now, gege?
It seems like I'll have to continue calling you using this honorific.
no subject

no subject

no subject
I wouldn't mind watching you make the attempt, but you're always against fawning over me the way Yingxing does. Shame.
no subject
Haha, how could I ever dare match Yingxing's fawning over the High Elder?
no subject
I'm sure you could match his affections, if you tried. You just never put in the effort.
no subject
I worry about your heart if I do put in the effort, gege.

You used to be better at lying, Jing Yuan.

no subject
Would you?
no subject
( *he would not )
no subject
no subject
... You may. Your impression of me will improve exponentially when that happens.
