[ i hope its just a vine. alternatively, i hope my death, ]
[ gu yun tilts his head up a bit into the pet, watching the screen. ] This won't kill me the moment I press it, will it? [ he says this a little dryly, a little teasing, thumb hovering over the button for a moment. ]
[that actually makes her frown, her ear twitching again.]
No. [that's - way more solemn? hm.] No, I hope it'll do the opposite.
[but if he does press the button, he'll feel a warmth in his chest that spreads out to his fingers - instinctively, he knows that he can now make any person feel as though they've been shot, without leaving a mark, once. they won't die, but they'll feel it.]

peering up from under his brow, eyes still twinkling with mischief; ] Stay a while and have some tea with me.
... Okay. [she says, expression a little - not shy, but flushed? embarrassed.] Yeah. For a while.
[and she will do that? she doesn't sit in his lap this time, but she's physically affectionate as always, in a way that's less bold and more trusting.]
