[ again!!

vax is up on the roof this fine evening. he's sitting on the railing of the rooftop, almost perching, his hood pulled up over his head. you'd maybe only be able to tell it's him from his posture and the feathers.

...he's not hiding, necessarily, though, so. company's welcome. ]

[honestly, sometimes you just need to get up onto the roof and vibe. jiuqing's other vibing spot, the ferris wheel, has been tainted, so she sure won't be going back there for a while!

...

anyway, she nods to him as she comes to the edge of the railing, leaning against it and looking out at the darkness.]

Sir Vax'ildan... [...] ...is there anything I can do for you right now?

[they're all having a rough time >T she wants to help if she can, since their emotional support sword is super dead.]

[ aw jiuqing... your ferris wheel

welcome to the bird brood spot though. this is a surprising offer? once again, jiuqing reminds him of pike, and he huffs a little, almost a laugh. ]

...'m okay, doc. [ his voice is quiet, but. ] I've got a weird one for you, if you feel up to it.

Tell me something you remember about Bu.

About Buzen...?

[...she falls silent for a few moments, thinking.

she's spent a lot of time with buzen in the weeks since they first arrived. the time's flown by - and it really doesn't feel like enough time. but where does she even begin to start...?]

He was the first person to ask me to teach them medicine. Right from the very beginning, even before things got... strange, he wanted to understand more about humans and how to help them.

[ this - this was a good idea, yeah. vax turns his head to listen more properly, gaze focusing on su jiuqing, and softening a little, too. ]

... Sounds like him. Kashuu compared him to a puppy. [ there's some gentle humor in vax's tone there, a soft snort of a laugh. ] Just wanted to do good.

[jiuqing's lips twitch up into the beginnings of a fond - albeit a little sad - smile]

A puppy, hmm? I could see it. [it's strange. just a few days ago, he was running around with the rest of them. now...] He was very kind. All of us were lucky to have known him.

Yeah.

[ he could, too. and the phrasing jiuqing chooses gets him to smile a bit. ]

... He'd say the same thing. Said the same thing, even, last week. Sentimental bastard.

[ like vax can talk, but you know ] ... He's got - well. 's not my business to say, I guess. But... it's important that we remember him. It matters.

I don't think it will be possible for any of us to forget him. I know that I won't.

[their emotional support sword :( ]
