un: worm wife / text

[wifedup]

( There is absolutely someone out there fucking with Wen Kexing, and so if anyone mentions the state of his new name he's going to commit Attrocities. He's here for a reason ... admittedly a potential wife reason, but still! You mention being a worm one time and fate laughs at you. )

It's come to my attention we're all very demure about our own skill sets. When it comes to trying to work together that reticence might be to our detriment. Especially considering the wealth of people we have here, what if one of us is in need of a carpenter and we don't know where to go? Or a scribe, those might be handy with all the terrible meetings we have to listen to. Or a healer, even.

( A healer especially, but he is the most subtle and anyone implying otherwise needs to be quiet. )

And so, I thought it might be a good idea if we instead shared what we were good at. I can go first.

Cooking.
A pursuer of scholarly endeavours.
Passable martial arts.
Provider of wine.

If anyone needs any poetry or lessons in how not to burn water then I am certainly your man. I know these aren’t exactly the more useful of skills, but there are bound to be more capable people out there. We need to help each other in these trying times, after all.

( We also need to not be lying bastards, but oh well. )

You're right, I do need something. But it is a sensitive matter.

( He might just be getting desperate enough that his worry for Zhou Zishu is higher than his need to be a secretive little bastard. )

One I don't believe a poultice would be the cure of, though I am willing to try. Do you know of meridians?

Not that term, specifically. I may know it otherwise. What is it in your words?

( she's curious in the way of one who hates being thwarted in healing: one who will, as much as possible, through sheer stubbornness and intelligence, find a way. with or without the one power having acting to do with it. )

[wifedup]

The points in which energy - or qi - flows through a body.

Damage to one can be problematic, damage to several fatal. I need someone who might know how to fix a collapsed meridian. Seven collapsed meridians.

( Is he keeping his cool? Probably not. Thank the heavens for the text function. )

[mashiara]

A secondary system for energy, running through a body like what bears blood through.

I'll have to see them, see what I can do. They're still living. There's time yet to find a way to heal this.

[wifedup]

I'll have to speak to them first, though one of us will undoubtedly be in touch.

If you can help him I'll be in your debt, that may not seem like much now but I can be useful.

[mashiara]

If I can help him, I'll help him. There's no repayment required for me doing what it is I'm meant to do.

[wifedup]

Even so, I'll owe you. The offer alone helps.
