Wangji laughs a little at Tidus's grumble about magic. "I often wondered how normal people managed without the cultivation pouches we have that provide the same effect." He agrees, preparing for missions would be so much easier and he wouldn't have to worry about weight at all!
"The name you had at birth is a private name," Wangji nods, pleased he's managing to explain this to someone who has never had to deal with it. "So it is used primarily by your family or very close friends." When Tidus has finished he makes that shaky hand gesture that translates to 'sort-of', "How you refer to someone when they aren't there shows how you know them. So yes, it's not weird. I have a habit of calling him 'Wei Ying' as we were important to one another."
Tidus's slight mangling of his title makes him raise his eyebrows but it's not important; it's nice not to be called that everywhere he went anymore.
"They do call me Hánguāng-jūn if it is a formal occasion. Otherwise it's 'Mr Lan'. Traditionally we say our first-names last in china, so I had several people I didn't know call me 'Mr Wangji'. I am not sure which I hate more."
