He's mine. You can't have him! Stop trying to hurt him or take him away from me. I won't let you.

Do you understand? Let me say it slower: I won't let you.

[Is he being recorded? Technology is out to get him, obviously.]

I kept his spirit in a pouch, you know. I never let that pouch out of my sight. I hung it around my neck under my robes and I could feel him flutter...

Almost like a little bird. He's mine and I will protect him.

If you wanna kill someone, kill me. Just...get it over with. Stop playing with your food, it's embarrassing.

[ The teasing vanishes. ]

That doesn't matter. You know what does.

You're not...judging me? By what I said? [About keeping Xingchen's soul in a pouch?]

No. I don't have the right to judge anyone.

I almost wanna ask what you've done.

I might even tell you sometime.

I'll listen and I won't judge. I have no right either.

I believe you.

I used to think I was the worst, but maybe I'm not.

Maybe, maybe not.

I think the worst doesn't realize they are the worst.

Ah. And wouldn't care even if they knew.

They think they have the right. Believe me, I knew men like that. Women too.

I do too. Perhaps I'll tell you a story when we next drink together.

That means I need to find us more wine!

Ah! Good!

[ The grin is back in his voice, even with the prospect of hashing out some of his past. He's growing rather fond of Xue Yang! ]

I won't fail~ Stay put and rest. [That's what Xingchen would say, right? Since he likes Zhou Zishu, he gets the special treatment.]

I won't die on you so easily.

[ But he's more amused than anything. ]

You better not or I'll be pissed. [Excellent reasoning!]

[ He chuckles, shaking his head a little. ]

You'd be one of very few to feel that way.

[ Or so he thinks. ]

They're idiots. Why listen to them? [He is clearly making a face as he talks, each word overloaded with disgust.]

[ Yep. He likes you, Xue Yang. You're a gremlin. ]

I don't.

[A feral gremlin at that!]

Then why are you so hard on yourself?

Ask me again when you bring wine and I tell you my story.

I'm not gonna forget! [Don't think he will!]

Then find more wine! That's my price.
