WHO: Shen Qingqiu, Luo Binghe
WHERE: Binghe's house in Ruga.
WHEN: Nowish?
WHAT: Meeting up because someone can't say no to an invite when offered.
WARNINGS: None yet.



[ Binghe would be a liar if he said he wasn't nervous. How could he not be? He's meeting up with his teacher, the one he saw only days ago back home! Only this time it's a whole lot stranger; this place is different and full of unique individuals and a few days has already felt like a few months. Now Binghe has his own house (somehow) and for the umpteenth time he gives the floor a quick sweep, glancing around to cast a critical eye over the whole thing. It looks clean, he's done nothing but dust and sweep the place to within an inch of his life yet even now Binghe wonders what he's forgotten. He even gives the simmering congee another stir, silently wondering just how badly this whole thing is going to go.

The track record of meetups between the pair of them these days is not the best. Twice Shen Qingqiu has died right in front of Luo Binghe and the third time was moments before arriving in this place, leaving his Shizun in the incapable hands of one so-called parental unit and a snake. That alone would have anyone nervous yet the gravity of it all is also a concern. Shen Qingqiu is from years ago, hasn't seen or heard a lot of the things that has happened. The half-demon knows it's not quite a second chance as nothing has truly changed, but it's an opportunity, a respite from the madness of their own world to try and figure everything out. Being on his best behaviour is an absolute requirement and not for the first time Binghe fusses with the sleeve of a robe, able to look as nervous as he feels whilst no-one else is around. Gone is the cold expression, replaced with a silent fretting that most could identity with.

Right, it's time to just wait, wait and see what happens. His fate is on an edge right now and Binghe quietly hopes it doesn't fall over that edge. Not again.

Without a word Binghe stands next to the door of his house, every so often peering a little out of the nearby window to keep an eye out for anyone walking up. Even then when someone knocks, Binghe will be sure to count to four before answering the door, not wanting to look like he was waiting like some forlorn prom date waiting for their partner.]
