[ Yes, all that and more... like before, their every interaction is like two people on a stage. It's like Yugu's tales, and because of that, because of the way he acts and what she saw in the wisteria, she knows there's much more lying beneath. She has her own reason for choosing that over any of the others she'd brought up as potentials — a selfish, secret reason, alongside plain curiosity. Languidly, she takes his hand, interlacing some of their fingers. ]
Hmm? Offering yourself to me again so soon?
[ WHAT does this seem like to the onlookers. don't worry about it ]
[ Her smile widens, entertained by the continued dramatics. ]
Mmhm... do you swear it to the heavens?
[ She flutters her eyelashes all demurely, all while taking another portion of his Qi, draining it through their connection just as she had before. He offered, and he's clearly doing fine. She'll just give it back, if he seems faint. There are only so many that know about this condition of hers, after all, so it's convenient for both of them. ]
The heavens and the galaxies beyond them. [ the slightly deeper breath he takes is his only tell that he feels anything at all. if she could feel his heart again, it would be the same steady beat as before.
[ Rather suddenly, the flush seems to return to her face, and her fatigue ebbs away. Playfully, she leans forward across the remaining space between them to kiss him on the cheek, not forgetting that he had wanted something in return last time... even if this is a much more innocent way of paying him back. Not that she thinks he'll really be satisfied with that alone — he did say that was the last time she would get off easy. ]
...Hehe. Thanks, sweetheart.
[ Beneath the drama of their little play, there's a sliver of something genuine there, too — real gratitude for his willingness to help keep her alive. ]
[ yeah, he's not. he accepts the kiss but then presses forward one of his own. this time he's more delicate, though only just; he wants to taste her and the way she called him sweetheart on his tongue.
maybe for the company, maybe for the cameras, he doesn't linger too long even if he stays close. ]

Singers, famous, and we take what we want. [ or it was something like that when they tangled. ]
I'd never say no to stepping on the stage, but especially with you, Yingying. [ he'll go where she's draped and offer his hand. ]
Would you like some of me?
