[ 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.
He's... [ gu yun trails off for a second, like he's trying to find the words. he's comically bad at just about anything that even remotely touches past "flirtatious and silly", and gu yun really enjoys molly's company - he's never quite had a friend like him, in so many senses of the world.
he stops peering over at the mark, for a moment, and rests his chin on wrath's shoulder, instead, looking past them. ] ...mnn.
[ wow for someone who is very charming that's. what he has to say, apparently.
ahem, ] ...Having a permanent mark is one way to do that, certainly.
[ no he's just fucking terrible at using the word "friend", actually, please don't enable this terrible behavior. if he notices wrath's concern and quiet warmth, he's not drawing attention to it. screams about sincerity ] He's rather talented, is what I was going to say.
[ thankfully, he does not fall off of the chair - that startled him! he's used to people taking vengeance on his sass by losing it not sudden bite vengeance - but his ears flush red, and he immediately shoves his ice cold hands on the first piece of bare skin he sees.
he'd shove them up her cloak if it wasn't so impossible to do, but her neck will also suffice!!! ]
[ yeah i hope someone in the hallway hears the clatter because that chair containing two gremlins is hitting the floor. gu yun squawks, less than graceful, and is nice enough to hold onto wrath but there's really no saving either of them from hitting the ground.
[ blinking up at the ceiling, his liuli glass horribly crooked, gu yun hears wrath start giggling, and.
yeah, this is really stupid. he starts snickering, too, wrapping his arms back around her and tipping his head back onto the floor with a low thump. wehehehe ]
[ gu yun has to wipe a tear of laughter away from his eyes, but, he untangles his hair from the back of the chair with a shake of his head, and takes those grabby hands! up he goes with a last hooo.
ridiculous! when was the last time he laughed that hard! ]

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.

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.]

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.

You can admit you like him, you know. Who am I going to tell?
no subject
Hmmm. Were you so keen to admit something similar...?

are they like, on a chair, because if they are she's going to wildly upset the balance. timber.]

she just hits the floor and dies laughing, immediately. she's still clinging to him, giggling helplessly.]

eventually, she recovers, and pulls herself up to sit, making grabby hands for him.]
