[ He smiles. It's nice to know that the feeling is mutual, that she feels like he can tell him things in turn. They're on equal footing. ]
It's easy to tell you things, so I'm glad you feel as if you can talk to me. [ He pauses. ] And I definitely don't think of you as delicate, I promise.
You know... I think that might be the first time. Thank you for that, too.
[ Not that Medea had been wrong when she thought it, either. But even Perion had carried her like she was made of glass. It's strange to be feeling happiness after what happened earlier... but it's a nice thought. ]
[ She laughs a little and picks up her juice again. It's like an informal toast! With juice. ]
I guess I don't know enough to find it strange. In Vasilios... I was always taught that people would think of my power as monstrous. But power is just how you use it, isn't it? I don't see anything wrong with how you've used yours.
[ He’ll reach over and clink his glass against hers. It certainly is how one uses it, and Wei Wuxian likes to think he’s largely used his for good, as dark and corrupt as others might consider it. ]
Your power isn’t monstrous. It’s a good thing, Psyche. I hope you don’t let those opinions get you down.
[ He smiles. ]
And if you do feel down? Just know you have at least one person here who doesn’t feel that way.

[ But he’ll take it anyway! Happily!
He grins, lifting his glass up a bit. ]
No one delicate would take my raising the dead in stride like you have.

[ At least from what he's told her. ]

I'll remember that. Then... I'll be the same for you.
[ It's nice, feeling that they're on the same footing. ]

I like the sound of that.
[ He finishes his drink, setting it down on the counter. ]
Well, we should both probably get a bit of rest. I don't want to keep you here for too long.
no subject
I should be getting back, anyway. I want to make sure everyone in Kakapo is alright. Don't push yourself too hard.

[ He slides off of his seat too, stretching out his limbs. ]
Don't push yourself too hard either.
[ He's planning on relaxing in a hammock, so he'll be totally fine. ]
