She'll shift and carefully help him off with his top, before moving and looking over at his tail, then reaching for her dressings. ]
Hold still while I re-do your dressings first.
[ Healers just don't quit. But she will lean in to kiss the side of his neck, and give his ear a nip, before moving to take his tail over her lap. ]
... I've no concern with you having other lovers... not that 'tis a surprise. But know that I'd come to you first, before any others. 'tis important to make that clear to one's partners.
[ Beginning to wrap him up properly and securely. ]
There are others among mine company, and who I care for dearly. But you are the only one I've... said I've loved back, this way. Just so you know.
[He stays silent for a long moment, digesting this confession, all the way until she's nearly finished with his tail.]
It is very novel to me, to find that I do not love Jing Yuan any less - that I would never love him any less - to have affections for others.
I did not understand, until one day, I woke up, and you were the first one I thought of, because I wanted to tell you about what inane thing I had dreamt, and to see what you thought about it. A part of me shared with you, and so I hoped, that you would share more of yourself with me...
[His ears are red. He squirms a little at the vulnerability.] It is not something I would afford so easily. [What he wants to say is, she's special to him too, but he's allergic to saying it out loud, so this is the best she's going to get outside of murder attempts when his mara acts up.]
Aye, 'tis the way we've always known- miqo'te, that is. To love one is precious... but to love many, equally, with respect and without reducing anyone else's feelings... 'tis a blessing.
[ That confession is sweet, and she feels her heart race, picking up on what he's saying but also not wanting to assume.
She's been left behind so easily every time she's wanted, after all. The bandages are securely fastened, and she carefully moves his tail back before shifting and moving back to wrap her arms around him sideways, head under his. ]
'tis a bit frightening, in truth. All of this. But full glad am I to have it. Suppose such feelings are always frightening, aren't they?
[ And Dan Feng is... definitely that. ]
But I am here. Whatever happens, I am here. You're mine now, too. Know that any hurt you give yourself is hurt on me, too. And I will make you regret it next time.
[ Pretend-scold! She does smile wryly, cheek against his shoulder. ]
... can't keep calling you "Shushu" as mine younger self did, I suppose. Back to being mine little treasure of a menace, then...
