I beg penance.

[weifinder]

( staring at this not long enough to check himself: )

In the bedroom or in life?

[downswing]

( .........................why are you this. )

[downswing]

No jest intended.

[weifinder]

( wonders he who keeps marrying the guy who asked this

both fools they )

Will you explain then what I'm to hold you to accounts over?

[downswing]

Indignity to your person.

[weifinder]

When did my person regain enough dignity to be damaged? Not to mention, what in the world do you mean?

[downswing]

Touch was mislaid.

[weifinder]

You were touching me at night? Or in the unfortunate hours of the morning?

[downswing]

Unworthily, I touched a woman.

[weifinder]

Oh no, Lan Zhan, are you okay?

[downswing]

In health.

[weifinder]

In mind and body?

[downswing]

I approached sincerely.

[weifinder]

Husband, I have a very hard time imagining you seduced a woman, are you saying you did?

[downswing]

Balance sundered. Touch was mislaid.

[weifinder]

So you accidentally fell into someone, and tried to catch yourself with your hands, which means you caught onto them?

[downswing]

( ...ah, to be known. )


Apologies.

[weifinder]

You haven't done any harm to me, let alone any disservice, Lan Zhan! Accidents happen. Balance fails. Sometimes you oversleep or forget about something, these things aren't what breaks a person, as far as I know.

[downswing]

You desire no apologies.

[weifinder]

I accept that you feel you must offer apology, and accept the offered apology. I don't see a transgression against me, that's all.

[downswing]

Generous.

[weifinder]

As you know me.

Would you prefer if I were jealous? I don't manage that well, but I could try pretending. Or angry? You've seen what stirs me to that. Lan Zhan, husband, you admit to not seducing anyone. Having a reflex to catch yourself when you stumble is normal, would you feel as wrong if someone had fallen onto you?

[downswing]

No.

Let us agree to never stoke your anger.

[weifinder]

That includes you and Sizhui not being targeted by those who seek your death for their own gains, which I prefer no one do, so this is fine by me!

( h u h, bae )
