[ this isn't helping ]

I wasn't the one considering matrimony just a moment ago.

[finals]

Doesn't matter. Say it's hypothetical. Would you?

[eepy]

Does this mean your proposal earlier was also hypothetical?

[finals]

Answer my question and I'll answer yours.

[eepy]

What will you do with the information, High Elder?

[finals]

Are you worried I will tell him your answer?

( because lbr he already knows it's a yes )

[eepy]

I'm concerned the wrong impression will be made.

[finals]

There would be no wrong impressions if you elaborated on your answers.

[eepy]

Even if I elaborate, I highly suspect the impression will change.

[finals]

And whose impression are you so concerned about? Mine, or Yingxing's?

[eepy]

Both.

[finals]

( heaviest sigh known to man )

Jing Yuan. Your elusiveness is telling.
Are you worried this could affect my relationship with Yingxing?

[eepy]

Yes.
Are you not concerned?

[finals]

I fail to see why I should be. I'm well secure in my feelings for him, and well aware where I stand in his life.
That, however, does not and should not stop us from pursuing someone else we both hold affections for.
Namely you.

[eepy]

Aren't we reading too much into Yingxing's affections for me simply because we spend time together?
He's always considered me a friend as I have him.

( it's a screenshot of a conversation with yx, clearly. 'but kain doesn't this thread take place before the one with yx' don't you worry about it. don't think about it. don't @ me on this. )

Does this read platonic to you?

[eepy]

It certainly doesn't read as romantic to me.

[finals]

Jing Yuan.

[eepy]

Dan Feng, do romantic feelings need to come into play in order to wish happiness on a person?

[finals]

Jing Yuan, would you say you're more familiar with Yingxing than I am?

[eepy]

In certain aspects, I suppose.
Though I would say that you might know more of him now than I do.

[finals]

( in certain aspects????????? that was a rhetorical question wtf do you MEAN )

You might be more familiar with the side of him that enjoys a friendly bickering, yes. But you cannot deny I'm more familiar with the side of him that exposes his romantic feelings for someone.
I know what he is like when he loves someone far more than just a friend. It is not my place to speak of his feelings, but there's a certain charm in the way he speaks of you sometimes. You undervalue yourself too much.

[eepy]

[ in terms of weaponry both of them know more about it than you do, mr magician!!!! ]

And how certain are we that his feelings are not being read more into?
I'd rather not make assumptions about feelings I've never once witnessed.

[finals]

The same way I've made the assumption of your feelings for me in spite of your reluctance to indulge in them.

( just saying. )

[eepy]

You're within your position as High Elder to make assumptions regarding a person.
I am not, and I would not venture.
