[downswing]

One yet discovered. But desired.

[weifinder]

Was it ever a question of if we want more children, rather than when we find those who can share our home?

[downswing]

Too often do my desires become mutual conclusions.

[weifinder]

What do you mean?

[downswing]

Better asked than assumed.

[weifinder]

Oh. Yes, that's... yes.

[downswing]

Thank you.

[weifinder]

We can even take in another son, if you've the heart for it. Just so you know.

[downswing]

Brother wishes a niece.

[weifinder]

I see, I see.

Think he'll one day take our requests, too?

[downswing]

Spare kindness.

He lacks a soulmate.

[weifinder]

With a heart large enough to one day find happiness, ah?

[downswing]

Not all men are so blessed.

[weifinder]

I didn't imagine I would be.

Still, there's deep affection in the world, whatever difference between where souls meet. May he find one who treasures that for its own sake.

( unlike... certain... other bonded brothers of his recent past. )

[downswing]

Guanyin cannot be so fickle, to ignore him.

[weifinder]

The gods expect we learn mercy for ourselves, ah? When he's ready.

[downswing]

Wei Ying. Should his day not come?

[weifinder]

It should. But he needs to be open to it too, ah?

[downswing]

...I shall speak to him.

[weifinder]

I'll be here if you wish to speak on it later.

[downswing]

He is no easier to approach on this than you are.

[weifinder]

Than what better person to try than you, who seeks firmly for those he cares about?

Family isn't about being easy. Sometimes the things we ask or are asked are the most painful, but if family doesn't ask, who will?

( do not, however, ask him how that's gone with his own brother. )

[downswing]

The Heavens.

[weifinder]

Stay quiet.

[downswing]

They stand so kind?
