And you have been there for me too, listening to my pointless childhood stories.

[ Which he's honestly surprised he shared with her so soon after they met, but Psyche just seems to bring that out in him. ]

[chrysaline]

I like your stories. I really hope to hear all of them someday.

[ It might take years, but wouldn't that be nice? ]

[diabolizes]

Only if I can hear some of your stories in exchange, even if you think they're boring.

[ They would be more insight into Psyche, which is all he cares about. ]

[chrysaline]

I really don't have that many. Sometimes it feels like my life has been so short, compared to everyone else here. But if you don't mind hearing ordinary things, I'll tell you everything I can think of.

[diabolizes]

I want to hear the ordinary things. Those are important too.

[chrysaline]

It's hard to think of things when I'm trying to, but... [ She laughs. ] Maybe the time Lira yelled at me because I jumped in a creek to get to an injured rabbit? Um... or when Helio first started trying to teach me to use a sword, and I almost stabbed him...

[diabolizes]

You almost stabbed him?

[ That makes him laugh. ]

I guess we’ve all been through that, but it’s been a long time for me.

[chrysaline]

You did, too? He really made it sound like no one else could be that careless!

[diabolizes]

Well… I did it when I was nine.

[chrysaline]

[ ... ]

Maybe... this is the kind of time where it's okay to lie?

[diabolizes]

Hahaha! Well, we all start somewhere. When you’re new at things, you’re bound to make a mistake or two.

[chrysaline]

[ Ah, good save. She has to laugh again. ]

I might have done better with someone like you as a teacher. [ All things considered, it was bold of Helio to try to teach her poisoning afterward. ] Was there ever anything you were just bad at? You made your cooking sound hopeless, but...

[ Well, he's helping her with Fou food just fine? ]

[diabolizes]

[ Honestly, Fou is lucky he isn't human. Otherwise he'd be doomed. ]

Well, I think my cooking is alright, but most people can't stand it.

[chrysaline]

[ The only thing keeping spices out of this dish tbh. ]

Then that can't count. Although I wouldn't mind having something I can help with... something you're really not good at, then.

[ Spill, spill! ]

[diabolizes]

[ It's moments like these that he wishes he wasn't great at everything... what a curse to behold. ]

My handwriting is terrible.

[ That's the best he can come up with. ]

[chrysaline]

[ Really. Really, Wei Wuxian. She stares at him for a little bit before she just starts laughing in earnest. ]

It must be hard, being a genius.

[diabolizes]

Ahaha! Well, it has brought me quite a bit of trouble.

[ He doesn't even deny the genius comment...... ]

[chrysaline]

[ He is so lucky he's cute, smh. ]

Has it? I guess I can picture it. A lot of people are jealous of Medea, too.

[diabolizes]

[ ISN'T HE JUST! ]

Are they? Hmm. I suppose I can see a personality like hers drawing jealousy from others. I'm sure part of it stems from intimidation.

[chrysaline]

Hm... I think so. I wonder why. Maybe someone needs to feel threatened by someone to feel jealous? [ She's going to have to think that one over. ] I'm glad the two of you get along, at least. Even if it's not likely to come up again.
