[Video] un: runyu

[ A new face appears, but there are glimmers of fury in the slight narrow cant of dark eyes and the set of his lips. Still, Runyu inclines his head, just a little - lashing out without thought is something he won't do. Never again. ]

The powers of those who brought us all here must indeed be great. Even more so for their requirements to keep us complacent and healthy.

With that in mind, I have some healing ability. If any are in need that this requirement has not seen to, I offer myself to see about helping.

Feel free to call for me should you have such a need. I am Runyu. Speak, I will hear you.

[There is...regret and some...hurt involved. Xingchen doesn't think poorly of his Master and he never will, but she was the closest thing he had to a mother.]

I know I did the right thing. I would have lived my life on that peak, wondering what good I could have done below otherwise.

[ Ah. Yes. Runyu can understand that need to act, opposite what others would feel should be done. ]

You have certainly improved my life here. I am glad to know you.

[His eyes widen and his cheeks turn pink.]

I am glad to know you too! And your little Dream Beast. You are always welcome in my apartment.

[ Warmth touches his gaze and he smiles softly. ]

Just as you are always welcome in mine.

[He smiles shyly, pleased.]

It's always good to have places to go just in case something bad happens.

I can get you out of anywhere, swiftly. Just call me if you are in trouble, and I will get you.

I will do my utmost not to burden you, my friend. But it is reassuring to know I needn't stay in danger.

Having a friend to protect is no burden.

I feel likewise. [Even if he must put up talisman or use spells. So?]

[ Runyu dares to reach out and stroke over Xingchen's hair, tucking a lock back over a slender shoulder. ]

[Xingchen smiles shyly, pleased that he has made such a good friend.]

Being so powerful, I'm sure you are accustomed to...serving. [Sorry, he can't imagine a selfish god.] You don't have to do anything for me. Except maybe show me the stars now and then.

I've tried to be a good ruler. But I do not try to get close to others. It simply has felt best to hold myself apart. The rest of the Heavens haven't tried to change that, other than a single retainer.

[ So yes. He is used to seeing to his own needs.

Then he smiles again. ]

I would love to show you the stars as often as you wish to see them. Not because I must, but because you are my friend.

I wouldn't mind being ruled by Runyu. [Xingchen grins and nods to himself.] I would visit you too. Even if I'm a mortal. I would find a way.

[Maybe through dreams?]

Have you walked through the stars?

I would visit you too, wherever you called home.

Yes. The stars know me and welcome me.

I won't live far from you here. I would rather be surrounded by friends.

[His eyes brighten and he beams.]

The colors... They must be breath-taking.

You should. I would be delighted to go wherever you chose to live.

[ After all, it's nice to have a friend again. To be wanted near. And he likes this mortal a great deal! ]

They are. I will show you some of them soon.

I was thinking about moving to Coldreach. [Snugly apartments and Autumn scenery. The sky should be nice and clear at night too.]

I look forward to it.

Then we should. I will make sure your apartment remains warm no matter how cold it is outside.

Will you come see them with me? [He hopes all of his dear ones can be happy there.]

If you wish me to go with you to see them, then I will. I can change the appearance of any apartment into one that suits me or another better than the initial rooms.

I would like your company. The weather can be harsher there, but I don't mind. I was raised on a mountain. [He actually likes the strong gusts of wind, snow and ice.]

Then there is no other place I will be, my friend.

Thank you! [He beams and squeezes Runyu's hand.] I look forward to seeing the wildlife.
