[about half a second later, there's a burst of flame, and wrath is just here in the tea room! her hood is up for now, mostly for precaution's sake, but.
[ he is arguably never going to get used to these npcs just appearing out of thin air, but -
young gun is actually sitting like a proper young gentleman at the low table, fitting very nicely into the atmosphere of the room, holding his phone in one hand and a teacup in the other. when wrath appears, he holds up the hand with the device as if to briefly shield from the bright light, and lowers it after, tipping his head down in briefly polite greeting as a smile curls across his face. ]
[ oh that's - okay hello. he makes a little 'oof' noise and lifts his hand holding the cup up and out of the way, like wrath is a cat. he'll just let them get settled on his lap, dropping his phone on the table to get his arm around them, immediately receptive because warm. no polite!!!
he peers around them quickly at the door, and then gives a little tug at the hood. a nonverbal "if you're up for it", if anything. ]
I'm a good student. [ yeah? are you? ] Hello to you, too.
Of course. [ that's to be expected. gu yun tips his head back to look up at her properly, looking a little too pleased with himself once the seriousness of the moment is over. fufufu. ]
Good students learn from good teachers, after all. [ stop ] This humble Gu has been lucky to have a good one. [ stop, ]
Stop. Your ham is showing. [she teases, leaning to press a kiss to his cheek. she kind of thrills at getting to do it.] Sooo, did you tell Yuri about how you've seen my flaming eight pack, or do you not gossip about that sort of thing?
He was very persistent, but I didn't tell him anything beyond what was coy.
[ admitting he'd slept with wrath, sure, but - her taking off their hood for him is a bit more special, isn't it? gu yun settles with the kiss to his cheek, linking his fingers together at the small of her back and hums, content, tipping his chin up and relishing in the attention. speaking of being a ham.
(also it was that or admit he slept with childe and thats not happening)] Some things are best left to be discovered, hmm? I'd rather let someone wonder than give them an easy answer - and besides, some secrets are best left to be unveiled by the person who holds them, hm?
[ hey that's his thing!!! anyway he squeezes his arms around her just a little tighter. ]
Perhaps I just misheard you. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe you said... [ he pauses for dramatic effect, like he is seriously thinking about this ] -- "some of the things you say really fuck me up".
[ god the smile on his face is terrible what a gremlin. wrath's reaction is so cute!!! cute!!! she's so cute!!!! bully ]
Maybe I heard something along the lines of, "I'm being charmed after all?" [ TEASEEE he's going to hold on tighter so wrath doesn't like burst into flames on his lap and escape.... though she might like kill him instantly instead, but he's willing to face that danger! which is probably genuinely why they get along so well. horrible ]
Sorry, sorry. [ he says, clearly not sorry. adorable. gu yun smiles up at wrath, clearly pleased with himself, having a grand old time. like the cat who got into the cream and is licking its paws afterwards, pleased with his victory.
though. there's a beat where he looks. confused? what is a lush, he genuinely has no idea. (it's you, gu yun, you're a lush.) but maybe it's easier for both of them if he just responds with a simple - ] Mm?
he waits patiently for the moment, not entirely sure what 'no lore' really means (her 'tragic backstory', probably), then peers around -- and, oh!
okay, so that wasn't there on sunday. he's not imagining things. at least this thought process doesn't show on his face. ] Mm, he mentioned this.
[ fufu. the urge to poke at it is there, like a gremlin, but he doesn't, instead touching at the closest lava crack nearby. ] It looks lovely. Did it hurt much?
[ there's an irony in there about wrath not liking pain. fuckin glass bones and paper skin ass wizards gu yun doesn't point it out, though, instead interested in following that little shiver and examining the tattoo up close, even adjusting his liuli glass a bit to note the details.
gu yun makes a soft noise of affirmation to her question. wrath was correct in noting it before - he and molly talk a lot. ] He mentioned he got to choose the design... and that he'd had other thoughts he was warned against, [ dicks, ] but, I rather like what he's done.

I really ought to learn how to do that.

I'm a good student. [ yeah? are you? ] Hello to you, too.
no subject
[tosses that up there for reference anyway she tugs her hood down, carefully, after looking around. this is okay, for now.]
If anybody comes in, I'm putting it back up. But sure. [...] Hello. You are a good student.

[ ultimately it's up to wrath, not him. ]
wehehe i now have CODE
Sometimes you say things that really fuck me up, you know that? [.......
and then she flushes bright red, because wow guess who didn't mean to say THAT.]
WEHEHE
oya? what's this ]
Oh? Do I?

[don't just pretend like you can't hear to gu yun.]

she doesn't burst into flames, but her hair does sizzle and curl into flames at the ends.]
You stop, or I'm going to take advantage of your weird effects, you lush. [a pause. she's immediately apologetic.] Wait. Wait, not lush, I - sorry.
no subject
though. there's a beat where he looks. confused? what is a lush, he genuinely has no idea. (it's you, gu yun, you're a lush.) but maybe it's easier for both of them if he just responds with a simple - ] Mm?
[ playing as if he was the one who didn't hear. ]
no subject
she lets him have the mm? though, and honks his nose. a pause.]
Anyway. I have things to tell you.
no subject
What is it? [ !! ]
no subject
anyway, she shifts.]
Nothing like, super important. No lore. But first, look what Mollymauk did for me. [and she tugs her robes down enough to show him a poke tattoo.]
no subject

no subject
He told you about it? [she sounds surprised, a little.] ... And yes, it hurt. A lot. I don't like pain in any way at all, so it sucked.

no subject
she lets out a little sigh when he looks close.] ... I like it too. I like him, uh - a lot, actually. He reminds me of my brother, sometimes.
[...] Seeing him upset, uh, got me vibrating out of my skin a bit, so I just let him do whatever he wanted.
