I'm curious, how many in our number are aware of martial arts? Are there any who have achieved immortality?
[All of this is asked as Zishu flies - yes flies - over a Wintry landscape without wings. He lands, briefly, on a rooftop, and then leaps back into the open air.]
Considering what is being asked of us and what we might encounter, I was thinking about offering lessons. My experience is surely enough to qualify me, but if you have doubts, I will do my best to dissuade them.

So generous, Zhou Zishu~ Seeking new disciples! I hope you will think of your poor wife should you need help with showing your qualifications.
[Video]
My wife? What sort of qualifications do you think I'm showing? [Tut tut!]
[Video]
Your skill with your hands, your feet, and your sword. This world should know the beauty of just how fast you can be!
[Video]
If that last one is a metaphor, you might have a point. [Zishu smirks and tilts his head, leaning closer to the feed.] What are you doing? You know you can only wear one of set of robes at a time, Lao Wen.
[Video]
Kexing grins, fan wafting just in view of the feed. ]
A-Xu. How could you think I'm selfish enough to only buy clothes for myself?
[ He is. He totally is.
But this time he isn't! ]
[Video]
Yes. [They both know Wen Kexing is a bit of a peacock.] What colors have you found? Are they at least warm?
[Video]
So mean to your wife!
[ But when has he ever been able to stay upset with his beloved for long? Never. ]
They are nice and warm. One is a pale jade, the other is the same shade as your plum blossoms.
[Video]
Am I?
[He can count on one hand the number of times he has been genuinely upset at Kexing - and each of those times had only brought them closer.]
Those are gentle shades for you.
[Video]
Yes! Here is your wife, going around looking for the best robes for you! And you disparage him!
[ Kexing clicks his tongue and shakes his head with a dramatic sigh. ]
This one is not sure his heart can take it.
[Video]
Oh.]
How can I make it up to you, hm? [He smiles, softer, sweeter.] Punish your husband.
[Video]
Oh. I will. When you are done flouncing around, offering yourself to others, I will be home waiting for you.
[Video]
You make me sound loose. I'm heading home to reassure you that I am not.
[Video]
Oh, I assure you, my A-Xu. You are very tight.
[ And he too is heading home~ ]

While I do not necessarily require lessons, I would be willing to assist should you be interested.
[Video]
I'm interested. What can you do?
[Video]
It is simplest if I show you. Where is convenient for you for a display?
[Video]
Where are you located?
[Video]
I'm at the Sauna Spas at the moment.
[ Water and heat? This is one happy water dragon! ]
[Video] -> [Action]
Zishu makes the journey mostly through flight, but he does eventually flag down other transportation to save some of his energy. He walks into the spa and seeks out Runyu, kneeling beside the water with a smile.]
I thought I saw a tail.
[Action]
Only to relax with a warm smile at the lack of disgust. Runyu waves the end of his tail shyly at Zishu. ]
I am Runyu. My father was a dragon, and my mother was of the water tribe. I take after both.
[Action]
I see! [He chuckles and takes off his boots, letting his feet sink into the water.] I am Zhou Zishu. I'm afraid I am a normal man except... I have achieved immortality. There are restrictions, of course, but I don't mind them.
[Action]
It is a pleasure to meet you, Zhou Zishu. I think you are more than you claim, even without stating you have achieved immortality.
[ But...restrictions? He tilts his head and studies Zishu with a faint frown. ]
What restrictions do you speak of?
[Action]
Maybe. [He chuckles, expression gentling.] I can't have food or drink. My Lao Wen and I exist solely on snow. That's why we live in Winter.
[Action]
That is strange to me...I have never heard of such a demand for immortality. I have a number of humans who achieved immortality in my service, and they can eat the same as any other immortal.
[Action]
Really? We cultivated our immortality using a specific technique. I was dying at the time, so my Lao Wen gave me his life. When I was aware of what he had done, I shared that life. Our sacrifices triggered the spell and now we are both immortal.
As long as we don't participate in the habits of mortality - like eating and drinking.
