[liuli]

[ some of the tension on his face loosens a little bit at that, and he huffs a laugh. ]

I'd appreciate it. [ he offers the bottle, gives it a wiggle above their head a bit, offering. ] Here. I'd pour this into your mouth, if I could see it.

[probe]

[they sort of just laugh at that.]

Ooh, tempting. Gimme. [i refuse to unmask w0, sisi] We can still share.

[liuli]

[ BOOO ITS SUNDAY AT 6PM!!!

he starts to hand them the bottle, then pauses, holding it juust out of reach.

wiggle wiggle. ]

There's a tax. Two truths and a lie.

[probe]

[THEY SIGH AT TOP VOLUME.]

Fine. You start. [glad neither of them care that two people are dead tbh]

[liuli]

[ emotions? what are those. he has lots more questions but - they can wait a few minutes. ]

Have you read my profile? No cheating.

[ but, grinning, he sits back a bit, tapping his fingers against the bottle. let's see... ] Hmm. I'm a father. I have royal blood. Animals love me.

[probe]

Your profile is not cheating!

[they roll over on their back. as they do, he can see a very quick flash of blonde hair that peeks out from under their hood.]

Hmmm... animals love you is the lie.

[liuli]

[ he touches his hand to his heart, mock offended. ]

Are you implying I'm not adored by all creatures?

[ . . .

he takes a swig out of the bottle. ]

[probe]

[they gremlin laugh.]

That is, in fact, what I'm implying! [hum.] I cheated on that one. The Avatars gossip.

[liuli]

[ WOW!!! he immediately pinches their side. ]

What's your source? I don't seem to recall sharing that with Pride or Lust.

[probe]

[WAH.]

It's a mystery!

[liuli]

[ oya ]

My interrogation techniques are famous all across Great Liang. I'll make you talk. [ he says this, and. wiggles his fingers on his free hand, still holding the bottle up. wriggle wriggle wriggle. tickle fingers. ]

[probe]

If you tickle me, I will kick you in the face.

[this IS a threat.]

[liuli]

Is that a promise?

[probe]

[...]

See, now, what am I supposed to say to that? Are you into foot stuff? Gu Yun.

[liuli]

[ he immediately starts cackling, doubling over with the force of it, because clearly he is messing around. now who's gremlin laughing.

sometimes you say something obnoxious to get out of answering questions! ]

[probe]

[they just kick him off the bed goodbye]

[liuli]

Ah, the wine - !

[ DON'T DO THAT

it's maybe only sheer instinct that keeps his arm up in the air to keep the booze from spilling all over the place, though he's probably got some down the front of his robes, because he hits the ground with a thump when kicked off, not even trying to avoid it. deserved

snickering, he sits back up, hair a mess, and props his arm on the edge of the bed and his chin on top of it. fufufu. ] Sorry, sorry. [ are you? ] You are correct. Most creatures tend not to like me much. Can't imagine why.

[probe]

[oh my god.

they just dissolve into giggles at that. that was very impressive, not spilling the wine all over everything - and when he props himself up on the bed like that, there's this pause. something under the hood twitches.]

Hm. I can't either. [they say, affectionately.] Come back up here.

[also:] I have a twin brother. I'm not human. I'm really good with a sword.

[liuli]

[ he looks too pleased with himself, actually. with a moment to smile brighter, like the cat who got into the cream, he climbs back onto the bed, and offers the them the bottle.

hmmm. ] I'd like it to be the last one. Would be ironic.

[probe]

[they take the bottle, holding it.]

Well, shit. [and they take a swig!]

[liuli]

[ WHAT!!! HE WAS JOKING ]

Really? Not at all?

[probe]

Ugh. Don't. I prefer guns, if I have to have a weapon. Otherwise, magic is my, uh, thing.

[liuli]

[ nyehehehe ] I see, I see. Why the swords, then?

[ tapping his own hand mark! it's a crown, but whatever. ] Someone with a sense of humor?

[probe]

Mmm, the best way to show off wrath as a concept, I guess.

[a pause. they shift, and show him the back of their hand. they have the same sword tattoo as the rest of the wraths, but instead, this one has a stupid guy fieri flame decal around it.]

Mine's a little more personalized.

[liuli]

[ i hate you

he leans over to look, though, makes a noise. look at that. ]

Does that go for each of you? That your symbol's a bit different. [ gu yun turns his hand over, glancing back at his crown. ] I suppose it would match with the fact that you're all still rather powered in comparison to some of us.
