It's so nice to not have to worry about being turned into a stool!

[Is she purposefully goading someone? Maaaybe.]

I wonder if he's turning someone else into a stool or something worse! [GASP.] I bet he is. What a criminal!

[Tiny hummingbird wings flutter in indignation on her back.]

Someone should lock up the Crow before he does more damage. Lock him up and throw away the key~

[And the goading continues.]

[dragonrising]

Your friends are whoever you want them to be. It's not limited to just what you are.

[Because the one dragon he's known back in their world? He never wishes to have had a friendship with that one.]

[watergrape]

Like Fish Fairy! [She is a flower that floated down to meet him while he napped.] I'm lucky. If I had stayed in the Water Mirror, I would have never known you.

[dragonrising]

[There are days he wonders if it would have been better if he never met her but he knows that's his own issue.] You would have still met my brother though and that is a blessing.

[watergrape]

[Hopefully she can help him feel less pain over time. Friendships are precious too.]

I know I said I saved him, but that was probably just luck...

I had no idea what I was doing.

[dragonrising]

Yet you did save him. Luck or not you saved Xufeng's life.

[watergrape]

He was pretty nice to me even after I dunked him in the foot bath.

[dragonrising]

Xufeng has always had a very big heart. He tries to pretend otherwise but he is truly kind at his core.

[watergrape]

He wouldn't have helped me if he was mean. I know I can depend on the Heavenly brothers.

[dragonrising]

Yes. You can depend on us.

[Even if he's let her down so badly so many times. He knows she would be better off not having him around but he can't stop himself from wanting to be there for her. It doesn't matter now that she can never be his, he still cares too much.]

[watergrape]

You can depend on me too. I'm going to be very powerful one day.

[This is her plan. Does she have the details worked out? Of course not.]

[dragonrising]

[She would certainly grow in power one day. He knows that to be true. But he also knows that with circumstances as they are that her strength will be in how clever she is and her powerful will. Perhaps here will be different but he has no way of knowing for sure.

So, he just gives her a gentle smile and lightly teases her.]

You'd best practice hard then.

[watergrape]

I will! You'll be shocked! [She eats several more pieces of meat, wiggling as she considers how. Yes. How?] I want you to take some of the herbs I made recently. Just in case.

[dragonrising]

Just in case? Of what? [He does appreciate the care she's showing him by offering though.]

[watergrape]

You get sick or this place makes you blind too. [She will rush to help him, but her herbs and mushrooms will be the first line of defense.]

[dragonrising]

So you are worried about me. That is very kind of you, Mi'er.

[watergrape]

Why wouldn't I be? This place could hurt you too.

[dragonrising]

[Unless they take away his two lovers he's not really sure how this place could hurt him more than he has been.]

I will be alright. But I promise I will take the herbs with me.

[watergrape]

Especially this one! [Jin Mi rises and retrieves a...big mushroom.] Just leave a little of them planted and another one will grow.

[dragonrising]

[He lifts a brow even as he takes it.] A mushroom?

[watergrape]

A Lingzhi! It promotes longevity. [And they are fun to look at.]

[dragonrising]

[He gives a soft laugh.] A longevity mushroom for an Immortal?

[He's teasing her gently. But only because it's a cute gift.]

[watergrape]

Oh. Well. It's good for you? [She should have thought this through.] You can also lure monsters with it.

[dragonrising]

[That makes him chuckle a bit.] There's not many of those here.

[But yes, he's tucking it away to keep.]

[watergrape]

You might run into one! [And she tries to...look like one. Rawr! Look at her claws!]

[dragonrising]

Ah but none will be as fierce as you. [So very scary. Even if he utterly fails to act scared of her act.]
