While touching is something always so casual with him, it's a bit harder to do when it's something meaningful and with emotion. He stretches his hand out, hesitates, and then he lightly gives Wei Wuxian a touch on his back.
This also explains the part about why he needed to quit for his budding Sect. They were destroyed and then brought back ]
I don't know how you feel about it, but I will be selfish to admit that I'm glad that you made it out.
[ Giving him a light bump with his shoulder and then he'll reach to pet the cat. Training his eyes on catte to let Wei Wuxian express whatever he wants without fear of being seen. ]
As long as it's worth it to you... [ He hopes he doesn't need to finish the statement and tell Wei Wuxian it isn't an issue to him. ]
You know, you are here in a new place with new people. Maybe there's a way to make your path a bit brighter. [ It may only be a short time, but it's something ]
[ The suggestion actually leaves him a bit amused, and it’s reflected in his voice. 808, while still scared, seems to be doing well enough to accept attention from Wang Lu. ]
[ Good okie, Wang Lu. It at least gets him laughing. ]
Well, I did say I’d rather have a peaceful life on the beach, didn’t I? Ultimately, that’s what I want my path to look like. I can’t do anything other than the kind of cultivation I do now, but I wouldn’t be opposed to doing it less as time goes on.
I can't but to notice you haven't share why it's the only method you can do. [ A beat ] But we can wait on that one. [ He doesn't want to make him pour more out of his story if he isn't ready. ] While I know it's not the same, I am unable to practice cultivation normally myself. [ Does he want something new to talk about? ]
[ Hm. Wei Wuxian isn’t sure if he should say what it is, because while Wang Lu is the only person here that would grasp the gravity of what he’s done, it’s a secret that he has kept so close to his chest that it’s difficult to let it go.
[ He can only guess that it's something pretty heavy and they already stepped onto heavy ground during this conversation. ]
I have a rather rare spiritual root that makes it impossible. It's a void spiritual root. I was told that I wouldn't be able to absorb or gather any qi the way that I was.

[ His lips quirk up, thinner than his usual bright smiles. ]
Ultimately, I’m glad that I did too… even if it had placed a mark of no return to a better path on me.
[ It fundamentally changed him, after all. But he doesn’t sound regretful either. ]
We all do what we must in situations like that, however.

Now what would this path look like?

[ Good robo catte. ]
What do you want it to look like?

So, he latches onto that new topic. ]
Why is that?

I have a rather rare spiritual root that makes it impossible. It's a void spiritual root. I was told that I wouldn't be able to absorb or gather any qi the way that I was.

…Does that mean you have no core?
no subject
It certainly acts like it. [ The whole thing is rather unique in itself ] I had to learn Wuxiang Bones in order to do as much as I can.
no subject
I’m not familiar with that method.
