Have you ever thought about getting married? {The topic has been on his mind since a certain wedding.} I know you should be in love when you do it, but is it strange to think about it even if you're not?

I'm a Cultivator, so I realize that it isn't likely that I will ever be married - unless I settle down. But it does seem nice and everyone has someone, don't you think?

{Or has he been lost in his daydreams for too long?}

It was not until much later that I realized I was. But I began to treat him differently, worry after him more. There were things I did in secret that I wouldn't have before.

It did not help that he had a different upbringing and did not understand where I came from and I did not know how to communicate this with him. If I avoided him, he believed I hated him. If I was not distant, he would take it too far.

[He hesitated a moment before continuing because the example is not flattering in the least to him]

He... was teasing me once - in entirely the wrong situation, saying that I liked a girl from another sect that I had only just met and had no interest in. He was laughing about it and I didn't know how to tell him that it was really him I liked. So I took his hand... and bit him on the arm.

{His father isn't the best at communicating, so he can understand some of his mother's confusion. Then again, his mother doesn't always pay attention to the finer points of a situation and his father is usually more subtle than dramatic so said finer points are how he communicates. Sizhui can easily see how they missed one another for a long time.}

You...

You bit him? {Imagining his distinguished father doing something so rash, so crazy is... He bites his lip, trying to hold in a laugh.}

Was it hard enough to make him bleed?

[WangJi opened his mouth to speak, but closed it when an off-camera voice, very familiar to both of them, spoke up, laughing while he's saying it]

Yeah, and it hurt too!

[WangJi actually did smile at that, as faint as his normal smile was. Well, that should answer that question... and answer where WuXian was right now]

It was not my finest moment.

{Mother! Sizhui grins at the sound of the other voice, sitting up straighter, eyes bright.}

You were frustrated! It sounds like he forgave you.

{Why are his parents so adorable?}

I'll think of it as revenge for him planting me as a radish.

[achickenformylove]

He did. Very much so.

[He smiled at WuXian off camera before looking back at Sizhui]

This was... in the Burial Mounds? When you were little?

[lansizhui]

Yes! I can't remember what led to it, but I wanted brothers and sisters, so he said he would grow them like radishes. {He laughs quietly, affectionately recalling that day.}

[achickenformylove]

[He smiled]

And you were the "seed" to grow brothers and sisters then?

[Not that he can talk. He put Yuan in a pile of bunnies when he was a toddler]

[lansizhui]

Yes! {An adorable seed for more adorable babies.} I was going to help grow another aunt too, so she wouldn't have to work so hard.

[achickenformylove]

[Very adorable] Oh were you? That's quite a lot for one seed to do. But I'm sure she would have appreciated the help.
