text | un: qishan (forward dated to after the poisoning)

Thanks to Lady Vannozza's largesse, I have managed to gain access to the hunting grounds owned by Don Bonaccorso. I extend the offer to any of our company who can be discreet and quiet— you can be smuggled inside. The grounds may offer up mysteries and there is game afoot that might be of potential use.

There are two others attending besides myself: Lily Evans and Wei Wuxian, who will be offering a blessing of fertility in the forest.

If you do join us, you will need to be ready to adapt a compromising position with your closest ally, should any outsiders to our company be present.

[ ooc: wen qing has managed to get access to the hunting grounds post-poisoning and will sneak in people who wish to help catch the owl, cause general mayhem while insisting they can be quiet and on their best behavior, and/or explore the place.

It's supposed to be an orgy, though. So uhhh... kiss your neighbor if/when someone else shows up.

Threadjack at will! ]

A favor, a mission accomplished.

You clutch words like pearl fortunes.

( Hello, kettle. )

It is not my answer to give.

But your task to instruct.

Lady, you stand under no yoke. Whose answer?

Two of our party: Lily Evans and Wei Wuxian.

You need not be, in all folly, his shadow.

Is it folly to assist a friend?

Unarmed.

You carry weapon?

No sword. Why the concern?

Threats sleep in shadow.

Do you know what threats lurked in Nightless City?

I stared into Wen Ruohan's faces.

I lived with them. Shadows hold many dangers but had fear stopped me, I would have been dead long before.

Legends do not perish.

Useful for teaching lessons to children.

Mistress, our child is grown.

Then what use are legends?

To treasure.

Allow him opportunity for this, your body unruined.

The venture is necessary. Will it soothe your conscience to know I travel in company?

Your company are a child and a fool.

And you propose better company?

Sizhui has served escort discreetly.

You would invite him to this, Hanguang-jun?

Need I inform you of what is meant by "compromising position"?

Entrust him guard of the gates. To intercede at your command.

It would be an unnecessary risk for him.
