( a smile from the man on camera, and a wave of his fingers against the backdrop of an ice wall. )

To those who know me not at all, or less well than others of our number do, I'm Wei Wuxian.

( hands lifted, he offers a polite, perfunctory sort of bow, paired to the clasping of fingers over the other hand's set. they drop out of frame, and he looks a touch more serious, dark eyes fathomless. or maybe it's all in the lighting. (the lack of proper lighting. torchlight keeps him flickering in reds and oranges.) )

The king mentioned Irenia in passing, the dragon? She was thieved away from a lord of death our group knows of, and has run into several times. His name's Anurr, he's the, ah, very slightly less horrible option for being enslaved by death lords, and from Sa-Hareth. Trailing after us with his creatures or his shifting loyalties, never trust his kind voice, Eleven can tell you about that! Five, I'm sure, can tell you more, as can Xie Lian, or Xiao Xingchen. All members of our group, as it were. Anyway!

( he claps his hands, and grins. a little crinkling around his eyes makes him almost seem truly merry, instead of merrily dry. )

Irenia lured far enough west can be called back to Anurr's dubious graces. Far enough east, and with a different strong pull on her mind, maybe, maybe we can free her. Either way, I recommend we do one or the other, because space to crash a being who never asked to be used as she is is limited, and using the keep itself in poor taste, as it defends this world from hell. Apparently. Very exciting stuff!

( ball's in your court now, chaos crew! )

Well. Meat is? Make it smell really fresh? I assume she likes that, ah?

[wantshappiness]

...it's a little more complicated than that. I mean, I'm not saying she'd prefer rotten food! But...like or dislike is often tied up in other things as well.

[Memories and experiences, good and bad.]

Even if it smelled good to us it might smell different to her and if it smells like something she has a negative association with it might not be so effective.

[weifinder]

... Young miss, I think you're overthinking this.

[.....that's entirely possible.]

Haha...maybe? [She'll keep these worries to herself. If it becomes relevant she'll be ready, at least?] As I said, it's usually people I have more experience with.

I-I mean--my friend! I mean my friend has more experience with people!

( he laughs, a light, carefree sound. )

Usually best to get that story set in your mind before you start using it, but we're thankful for your help once we have a plan. Along with your friend's.

( ... so, just her, but still. )

[This person is a man but somehow that laugh reminds her a lot of Kaoru.]

I-I'm not-- [She presses her mouth into a frown, looking less angry and more flustered.] ...please don't tell anyone.

[weifinder]

I won't, young miss. Though we've been speaking where others might have heard, ah? You'll be okay. And thank you, for what you'll do.

[...

She puts her face in her hands because she most certainly did forget.]

...someone please just bury me.

[For being an idiot. She'll even do them the favour of finding a shovel for them.]
