I'm looking for a specific type of flower. It's small and white and it gives off a delicious scent. Maybe it's something like jasmine? I'm not sure. Its been awhile since I had any.

I think the butterflies will like it. {Granted they aren't real butterflies, but surely phantom butterflies love sweet scents too?}

I remember them blooming for most of the year or maybe I'm mistaken? It has been so long. My mind is getting old.

I was definitely spoiled back then. If I asked for them, someone would grow them even if it was the wrong season.

I know better now.

It's just the memories that I miss.

{His eyes widen at the tale and then he smiles. Slowly.}

I don't suppose we can help our...mm...type. I didn't understand why others had such a hard time around pretty women. Then I met my San Lang and - ah yes. I have empathy for my fellows.

[Clears his throat. Well, really can't deny that Mobei is absolutely 100% his type.]

We've all got a soft spot for what we find beautiful, yeah? And you've seen my king. He's perfect.

[disgracedprince]

{He chuckles and cools his face with a simple, white papered fan.}

I think it best if I leave that thinking to you. San Lang is my idea of perfection.

[wrotetheworld]

Maybe perfection is based on each different world then.

[Grins.]

Which can mean both are right.

[Hey, not gonna try to tell a friend that his blorbo isn't the best for him. No thank you. Has seen too many fights on the internet about which idol is the best, and those people weren't actually in relationships with them.]

[disgracedprince]

I think it is based on our hearts.

{His heart thumps like an excited rabbit when his San Lang is near!}

I think you are very right to love your king.

{What's wrong with loving different people? That's wonderful!}

[wrotetheworld]

[Don't mind him, just turning a little red there.]

Ah, well, I've put a lot of work into him, you know?

[disgracedprince]

But he has become more than that, hasn't he? He has grown beyond the parameters you set.

{He has a feeling he's right about that.}

[wrotetheworld]

Good thing too! He was supposed to kill the guy whose place I took.

[Very attached to living you see.]

And well, he's still my favorite.

[disgracedprince]

Surely he noticed the difference between you and him.

{He ships them. See this smile?}

[wrotetheworld]

[Aw, Xie Lian's too nice!]

He probably would have, if he'd ever met the original goods. When I said I replaced him, I mean from birth! He never even got born.

Which is good. Because not only would he have eventually betrayed my king, but if I'd shown up after they'd met, Mobei-Jun would probably think I was a spy. Spying on him. Not for him.
