[ xie lian is here! in his dusty lil robes and his straw hat on top of his head, he's eating breakfast and seems content to just listen to the people sitting near him? there's a smile on his face, because he is truly, truly, just vibing. his plate fills itself with mantou, and he looks so surprised when it just appears?! like this is the greatest day ever.

and, while he's vibing, you may see him take a mantou... and tuck it in his sleeve... i'm sure that's fine. ]

[ wherever you are, you might hear a sudden, surprised - ] Ah! [ and then a very loud thud?

if you go to investigate, you will find a xie lian, who is halfway in a hole. he looks up as someone approaches from where he was trying to pull himself out, and smiles, sheepishly. ] Ah... um, watch your step if you see a strange hole in the ground...

[ better him than someone else... then again, who else has luck that bad... ]

[ just before the night falls, xie lian can be found sitting cross legged at the dock, watching as the sun sets on the horizon. he seems very content here, enjoying his great view - it's a nostalgic, familiar sight, and the vibes coming from where he's sitting are just warm and comfortable.

if you approach, he tilts his head up, and offers a gentle smile. ]

A friend once told me islands are a lovely place to watch sunsets. Would you like to join me?

[ ya... 2 ]
