[ Quick and to the point; anyone who knows Jiang Cheng could probably figure out that 1) he's not used to this format yet and 2) he has no time to mince words at the moment. ]

What name would you call a rabbit?

I want suggestions.

Please.

[ There's a pause, because Snowbun Empress isn't a terrible name, but he's not going to admit that. ]

They just are! It's obvious.

[jingyeets]

To who? You and Rulan?

( a pause. )

The Rulans?!

[fennu]

The Rulans? No, you - [ He grits his teeth. ] It's just clear when you look at them.

[jingyeets]

... When you look at the ... rabbits, or dogs, it's clear what they can't be named. Is this a Yunmeng Jiang teaching?

[fennu]

No, it is common sense.

[jingyeets]

For whom?! That sounds super not common as far as sense!

[fennu]

It must be a Lan problem, then.

[jingyeets]

Or a Jiang problem, Sect Leader!

[fennu]

It's definitely a Lan problem.

[ He's met Lan Wangji, thanks. ]

[jingyeets]

Little Radish and Little Carrot are great names, just like Little Apple!

[fennu]

Why are they all after food?!

[jingyeets]

( without pause: )

I don't know, because you are what you eat?

[fennu]

That does not make sense.

[jingyeets]

Little Apple likes eating apples, Little Radish likes eating radish greens, Little Carrot likes eating carrots.

( IT MAKES TOTAL SENSE fairy makes just as little sense okay he's had this exact debate with Jin Rulan before, and only because Jin Rulan was insulting Little Apple while his fat spiritual dog was named Fairy. Okay. )

[fennu]

Or do they eat those foods because you named it after them and don't give them anything else?

[jingyeets]

( he gasps. he full on gasps at that. )

You're saying we neglect our rabbit's diets?!

[fennu]

Well, they're not pets, are they? They're wild. The Lan are not permitted to own pets.

[jingyeets]

They're our guests! Are you implying the Lans are inhospitable to any of our guests?!

[fennu]

I didn't say it.

[jingyeets]

You said we only feed rabbits one food! Whatever they're named for. And I said they're our guests!

[fennu]

I implied it.

[jingyeets]

... I cannot believe you're arguing like Hanguang-jun...

( he really. really sounds surprised here lmf )

[fennu]

[ If you could see his fucking face - ]

I am not.

[jingyeets]

( please he does not need to know that face--

Jingyi's response is to snort. )

As you say, Sect Leader Jiang.

( you so did and now you KNOW IT )

[fennu]

I hope that was sincere, Lan Jingyi.
