Video / Action - Open with one closed

Video
[As seemed to be per usual when WangJi made a lot of posts, he was in the Greenhouse Carriage where the rabbits' hutch was. Today though, there is now a very large scaffolding in the view with him. Behind him, if one is observant, they will see his black rabbit, Little Carrot, trying to figure out if he can climb it.

Spoiler: he can't.

But WangJi had his other rabbit, the white Little Radish sitting patiently in his lap]

For those that knew him, it seems that my brother Lan Xichen had departed the train. I hope that he returns home and can find some peace.

Action - Open
[WangJi could most definitely be found in the Greenhouse Carriage for a good part of the day. Later, he could be found walking the corridors of the train with Little Radish. It would be a good distraction to meet some of the new arrivals]

Action - Closed to Sizhui
[It had been an important day between now and when the train was at the previous station. As such he had spoken with his son and asked for his input.

And now that it was a new platform day, it was time to deliver on his promise. He went to the Luggage Carriage to retrieve the "item" with his name on it, a pet carrier. Now that he had it, he set out to find Sizhui]

So it's not just him gone, it's the reminder of your ma and all them good times, too?

[achickenformylove]

I suppose so. My brother... he has always understood me better than anyone else. Most people do not understand my emotions just by looking at me. He always has.

[yondu]

Yeah, you got kind of a stern face. Sometimes I ain't got the foggiest what's goin' on in that head of yours.

[So he understands that his brother's perception must run pretty deep. What with WangJi and his goddamn mysteryface.]

[achickenformylove]

That is a common problem. [WangJi was used to it] There are many who think I am angry with them when I am not.

[yondu]

Yeah, well I seen some people have it when they're just bein' casual. But you got it all the time, like a card shark.

So I figure it did take quite a bit to know ya that well. [Then he adds.] We're gonna figure it out. How to fix all this. The broken tethers, the people goin' missin'. Might take a while, might not even technically be us, but it'll be fixed. I believe in people.

[achickenformylove]

A... card shark? I am unfamiliar with the term.

[Yes, he has a wonderful poker face. If he gambled, he'd always win]

Believe so as well. It would be nice to be able to go home. Those who would like to.

[yondu]

Means if you were a gamblin' man, and only you knew the odds, nobody'd be able to tell from readin' your face.

[He actually snorts at the thought there.]

Not that you are one, but there's some strategy to it. I picked up some Terran card games since I got here if you'd be interested in tryin' sometimes.

[achickenformylove]

Ah. Yes, I understand now.

[He very much was one of the people that this would work for]

I do not gamble, but I would be interested in learning some games for fun.

[yondu]

Good practice to have in a tense situation, too.

[It feels like it might do him some good, though. This place can get stagnant.]

[achickenformylove]

Playing the game is good practice to have? [Or was it his poker face]

[yondu]

Yeah, 'cause you can practice that damn face and I can start tryin' to figure it out. [He very lightly elbows him.]

[achickenformylove]

We could do that if you wished to try.

[As long as he wasn't gambling for real, there was really nothing to lose]
