[downswing]

Steer away from cliffs' edge.

[weifinder]

My handsome, esteemed, swift and cutting wife, I have no desire whatsoever to fall.

1/2

[downswing]

( What







why. )

[downswing]

Only an inclination.

1/2

[weifinder]

( orly

WE MADE IT THROUGH THE STAIRS OF SIGHS, SIR )

[weifinder]

Are you feeling inclined to stand at the base of any particularly short cliffs, holding your arms open and calling out, "Wei Ying!" ah?

[downswing]

Precedent exists. Do not ridicule me as unreasonable.

[weifinder]

I understand your fear, Lan Zhan. Have faith in me, not in that man.

[downswing]

I hold the faith for both.

[weifinder]

Lan Zhan. I thank you, and I'm only one of those men.

[downswing]

Be the one who minds himself.

Wei Ying. Do not imperil your flesh to taste the thrall.

[weifinder]

Asking in seriousness, have I been acting in that way since I was brought back from wherever I was?

[downswing]

Often.

To spare others. For curiosity. For play.

[weifinder]

The first, yes, well, arguing otherwise would be eating a loss before beginning.

I'm not understanding your certainty for the last two.

[downswing]

You play, stall and tease to study the power of foreign forces.

Do you not?

[weifinder]

I'm beginning to understand we see what I do in different ways.

I do search, and question, and investigate, and it brings me in and out of contact with foreign powers and dangers.

Not recklessly, and not with abandon. Once, I wouldn't have taken enough care.

[downswing]

You suckle at the breast of mother death.

[weifinder]

Father Fortune saw to it.

[downswing]

My caution, well placed.

[weifinder]

For cliffs, Lan Zhan? That's fear. Understandable, but not true.

[downswing]

I beg master Wei's pardon.

[weifinder]

I don't think I want either of us begging unless it's for something fun.

[downswing]

Wei Ying.

[weifinder]

Apologies given or accepted don't require begging, I'm just saying where it would be nice, ah?

[downswing]

Let us find master Wei freshly soled boots.
