week four | mingle

[marriagebroker]

Final week at the estate! Final week with your friends. Final week with your beaus. Time to make the most of it, everyone!

In fact, to celebrate this fact, today there is a cake. It's nothing special, just a nice little cake to enjoy with your morning coffee or throughout the day. Yay, cake!

And when Wei Wuxian arrives that morning, he is going to call out once again for everyone to join him, near the cake.

"Everyone, I have another announcement!"

Hell yeah, announcements.

[MA'AM?] Don't you think you'd have to go out of you way to find a volunteer for that demonstration?

[Furina's hands are up in refusal, palms out like this will somehow keep Shoko from both mortally wounding her and bringing her back from the brink of death. Please no. It's only normal for a regular human to be afraid of a deadly injury.]

Hm, but I suppose that means you and Edamura have made the decision to forego cigarettes? That's a momentous decision.

[irreversal]

Yeah. So don't go expecting me to perform or anything, please, Furina-sensei.~

[ But!! She nods. ]

To be honest, I'd made the decision to quit before coming here, but it's a hard habit to break right away. Plus Wei-san put packs in front of me...!

You know, he was probably looking out for you, knowing about much stress you'd be going through.

[Wei Wuxian is more observant than people always give him credit for, and Furina picked up on his genuine caring and investment pretty early. But when it comes to his ideas and plans...well. Well.]

If you can't indulge yourself to the fullest, is it really a vacation in the end? Ah, but I think it's better to indulge yourself without doing any harm to yourself, too.

[ She nods and hums thoughtfully, because she did get that sense. He'd known it was something she... enjoyed, and so he made sure she had some. But also, she just has to say, ]

Yeah... It turns out he had no idea how bad cigarettes are for the body. But I do think he at least wanted me to have that option if I needed it. It's definitely something I use to cope with stress and feeling depressed, soooo. Heh.

[To be fair, has Shoko seen the way Wei Wuxian drinks... It shouldn't come as any surprise that he had no idea about cigarettes, either.]

It'd probably be better for everyone to know, too, right? Even if you're quitting...People can empathize with needing a coping mechanism or two, haha.

[Furina certainly has her own, and she had some that she needed to get over, too, and she can certainly understand being a little self-conscious about them.] I do hope you experience was ultimately more rewarding than stressful or depressing.
