[   of  course  the  crown  prince  needed  a  bodyguard,  he  couldn’t  just  let  the  royal  guards  or  yīn  shuǐ  protect  him  all  the  time.  and  he  knows  he  isn’t  exactly..   bodyguard  material.  he  prefers  to  fix  outfits  for  lang  qianqiu,  look  after  his  quarters  (  they  tend  to  get  messy  easily  )  or  do  the  simple  tasks  he  was  hired  for.  it’s  a  simple  life,   and  quiet  peaceful  ..so  why  is  it  that  he’s  on  the  ground  with  a  banging  pain  in  his  head  ?   yīn  shuǐ  immediately  pushes  himself  back  on  his  hands  when  he  finds  it’s  a  boy,  looking  rather  apologetic  and  rubbing  his  own  head.  a  contagious  smile  that  the  retainer  refuses  to  catch  wind  of.  ]   w—    ..who  ?  do  you  not  know  you’re  not  supposed  to  run  ?  you  crashed  into  me-

            yes,   and  ?  you  are  really  /  small  /.  but  that  does  not  cloud  my  judgement  of  you,  mini  bodyguard.  i  will  see  for  myself  how  you  do  your  job..
            [   oceanic  orbs  are  still  narrowed,  but  the  suspicion  seems  to  have  worn  off.  mohan’s  cheeks  seems  to  be  going..   a  rosey  colour  ?  why  ?   is  he  too  warm  ?  ]  /  distracted  /  ?  of  course,  you  sound  prepared.  extremely.

@tranqile,    aha..   terribly  sorry!     you're  ..   really  tall.   (   mohan  says,   putting  the  badge  away  to  rub  at  his  neck.   his  face  turning  pink.   he's  beautiful!    but  mohan  does  not  say  that  out  loud..  less  he  be  on  the  receiving  end  of  that  sword  again.  )     ehe..    truthfully,   i  did  try!   but  then  i  got  distracted  by  something  at  home.   ah!    but  i  uhm-   ..    im  very  prepared  for  this  job.

            [   pupils  slit  like  cats  eyes,  narrowing  in  suspicion  at  the  badge  of  identification.  it’s..  like  his  own,  but  he  is  the  crown  princes  bodyguard  instead.  this  person  ?  well,  it’s  not  like  people  haven’t  mistaken  /  him  /  for  being  the  prince’s  bodyguard,  so  he  can’t  say  much..  ]   lang  mohan  ?   i  have  never  heard  that  name..  you  must  be  the  new  one.  you  should  have  mapped  this  palace  out  before  you  started,  what  bodyguard  stumbles  around  a  place  he  should  know  ?  ..   do—      don’t  stare  at  me,   lang  mohan  !  //
            [   sheathing  the  weapon,   mǐnhé,  yīn  shuǐ  huffs,   dusting  down  his  robes.  he  doesn’t  want  them  creased ..  ]  it  is  gone  now.

@yongans,     [snort]───    sounds  like  aoyun.    in  the  best  way  i  mean.   seriously,   that  guy  was  so  stone  faced,   but  get  jie  or  little  minhuang  to  jump  from  a  tree,    and  he  was  quick  to  panic.   pfft-   im  glad  you  found  someone  after  all.

he's   been..     amazing,    mohan.     you've   no  idea.    he's   been   there   every   step   of   the  way   with   guzi.    the  kid  is  fearless  now,    but  qi  rong  is  so  scared   whenever  he  scrapes  a  knee  or  gets  a  splinter..
