video | orchestra one, immediately post platform

[jingyeets]

( Lan Jingyi, appearing briefly on ICP, soaked from head to toe, actively dripping water with his hair and ribbon plastered down either side of his face, his, er, nightgown likewise... plastered... against him... and it's white, this is a wet shirt contest and no one told anyone who showed up on platform, they all just suffered together. )

Look, if anyone's trying to find me and is confused why I'm not in my tiny short bed cabin, I'm staying in the "inn" carriage the next week.

( that's it, that's him wanting to inform the ones who'd probably want to know but being in a less than happy mood to track everyone down so doing it in the most broadreaching, effective way the train's got going for it. )

[He'd have a much tougher time functioning day-to-day, that's for sure.]

[He recognizes the slow blink, and the slow answer - Jingyi probably needs to take care of a couple of things before he can really think again, doesn't he.]

Okay. Let me know when you're cleaned up and I'll bring you something to drink, if you'd like.

[jingyeets]

( To be fair, likely so would everyone running around damp all the time, but hey. )

Hm? Right, sure, I'll shout out across the ICPs again, unless you want me calling a cabin or something.

[fivemilesdeep]

Just call my cabin. I'll be available.

[It puts a bit of a cramp in what he'd planned on doing today, actually, but he'd rather be available for Jingyi if Jingyi needs anything.]

probably can call this a wrap and focus on the one a few days later?

[jingyeets]

( Jingyi is not the guy who needs general space most the time, he's used to finding his own peace even around others, but here he nods. )

Thanks, Ryo.

( and it's something around half a shichen later when he calls, for whatever warm beverage Ryo cares to bring, for idle chatting for however long Ryo cares to spend. )

Sounds good!

[fivemilesdeep]

Of course.

[He'd do it for any friend who needed it. He'll bring by tea when asked and stay long enough to make sure Jingyi is settled and okay.]
