You are on a roof with Shenhua, sharing a drink with her.



"So then Yellow was climbing the rope and his pants fell because of the bricks that he put in his pockets to try and show off."



Shenhua: "Yellow doesn't seem to be sharpest in tool shed."



"Yeah, but he's my best friend. The one of the first Neons I've known my entire life."



Shenhua: "You Neons seem like you all still children. You all drink but only have one each and that it."



"Yeah, profanity, drugs, and smoking weren't a thing when we were being trained in Arcadia."



Shenhua: "They trained you how to kill every day?"



"From the day we arrive as toddlers."



Shenhua: "As toddlers?"



"Yeah. Not entirely sure what happened that caused us to end up in that place, but from what I found out, a lot of us were sold by women who didn't want the responsibility as a parent."



Shenhua: "They the ones making bad decisions and they blame on they own children? Worthless bitches."



"Not sure about all of them. I think some of them were hesitant on giving them up."



Shenhua: "At least they deserve some credit."



"Well, when blood fails, at least bonds prevail. The others are my family and I take a bullet for any of them."



Shenhua: "As I said before, you are loyal. I can't help but find myself attracted to you."



"Same."



Shenhua lifted your mask a little and kissed yourself on the cheek.



Shenhua: "Well, you are growing up in some areas besides being able to handle spilling blood."



"Well, I have to in order to impress a warrior who's also a very fine woman."



Shenhua: "Oh, stop. You making me blush. You make it look easy."



"Well, dating is a hard concept in this city, but I do think that assassins can love since we're not trying to kill each other on business orders yet. So, I think this is one of the only ways to do that."



Shenhua: "Well, it's nice."



You and Shenhua continued looking at the light of Roanapur as the two of you sat down together.
