[Yuchi Longyan is in the middle of a crowd. He looks around him, amused, taking in random conversations.

Really, it's fun. You should try it.]

I did not know so many personalities could exist. Humans are truly like bright sparks.

[He steps out into the throng and takes his time, smiling sedately.]

What do you do for fun?

[longyan]

I can visit! I'll even bring you a house-warming gift. How's that?

[Don't be upset, bff!]

[lordofrebirth]

What gift are you planning on bringing?

[He doesn't trust your gifting abilities, Dragon King.]

[longyan]

Incense? Wine? Something soft? I bet you like blankets.

[lordofrebirth]

What makes you think I like blankets?

[longyan]

They're comforting! You seem cold.

[lordofrebirth]

I am not cold.

[He sighs.]

Don't bother coming. It's unnecessary.

[Watch him hang up like that will somehow discourage the dragon or something. Gosh.]

[longyan]

[Hang up and he'll come live with you.]

No, no I know when you need me!

[There will be wine because... Longyan.]

[lordofrebirth]

[Nope. He can't hear you. He hung up and is going to pretend he didn't have this conversation. Thanks.]

[longyan]

[Alright, that's it. Longyan is coming over with wine, blankets, pillows, incense...

His arms are full, okay. He knocks with his foot.]

[lordofrebirth]

[...Who is knocking at his door? He hasn't told anyone that he lives at the Four Seasons Manor. And Kexing doesn't knock like...

He frowns as he realizes and goes to open the door, staring at the dragon on the other side.]

I didn't know you knew how to knock. I'm almost impressed.

[longyan]

[Longyan meets his friend, his very best friend, with a wide smile.]

I couldn't open the door with all of this! I thought you might be here. I followed your scent.

[lordofrebirth]

You are capable of arriving directly in a room, Dragon King.

[Sighing he opens the door the rest of the way to let the other come in. Already it's clear he's used his magic to change the room to be styled in the dark fashion of Luo Feng Pavilion.]

[longyan]

But that would be rude.

[He huffs at the dark furnishings and happily adds his presents to the mix. See? Much softer! Then he holds out the wine.]

Drink with me?

[lordofrebirth]

[He frowns at the pillows and blankets before giving a sigh. With a wave of his hand he summons a tray with cups at his table so they can drink together.]

[longyan]

[He makes himself right at home and pours them each a cup, grinning.]

So you felt a little lonely?

[lordofrebirth]

No.

[Taking his cup, he studies it a moment before drinking it. Suitable. Good.]

[longyan]

Aw it's okay! I knew you would miss me.

[Because a certain dragon missed his friend too. Shhh.]

[lordofrebirth]

If I missed you then I would have already told you where I've been living.

[He sets his cup down to tap for more.]

I've been occupied with other matters.

[longyan]

I can't recall... Maybe you did?

[Sips his wine sloooowly and then pours them more.]

Such as?

[lordofrebirth]

I didn't.

[But honestly he only didn't because he's been dealing with the pounding in his head he can't explain.]

Personal matters you don't need to know about.

[And because he doesn't even know how to explain them.]

[longyan]

No, you definitely did.

[His brows rise and he leans in, tilting his head.]

You're not feeling well? Did you drink something wrong?

[lordofrebirth]

[He immediately leans away from him.]

I am fine, Dragon King.

[longyan]

If you need help, you just have to ask.

[He is serious about this bit. The teasing can wait.]

[lordofrebirth]

[He huffs and looks away so he can drink his second cup before setting it back on the tray.]

I am fine.

[Which is more something he keeps telling himself than anything else. Because he doesn't understand where this pain in his head comes from.]

[longyan]

You seem like it. [Sarcasm. Longyan wants to heal his friend, but... He also doesn't wanna be evicted into the garden.]

Everything here seems connected to relationships.
