[he pauses to consider it, still idly petting wei wuxian's hair as he allows his ears to be played with... it feels nice, actually, and he's leaning into the touch.]
[He can't hold back his bully gene for more than 5 goddamn seconds at a time. But at least he makes up for it (????) by continuing to pet and rub at his cute lil ears, which are currently the best part of his whole cursed self.]
Anyway, if you're fine with it, I'm keeping it. Otherwise, it's A-Ya!
[but he doesn't pull away, despite wrinkling his nose. did you know foxes purr, apparently? there's a pleased little noise that might be a purr, and that gets him to lean back, looking startled.
[AS IF HE CAN ESCAPE THAT EASILY. He'll come back around to A-Ya in a second, but first, he just leans forward to recapture the space between them. No running!!]
What was that?! What was that! How cute, how cute—!! Let me hear it again, come on, be kind to me!
[HE'S A BIG OL' IDIOT. Even if it's angry pets, he's still pleased with them!! He makes a little, delighted humming noise, canting his head to the side.
Though, at the question, a little of the teasing edge slips from his smile, replaced with a sort of warm nostalgia.]
A-Xian! My shijie was the only one who ever used that, though, haha.
Mm, my sister! [A term used for those from the same school; unrelated by blood, but related in any way that matters. His smile truly warms at the mention of her. He loves his shijie...]
Haha, my little brother was too prickly to call anyone but her anything even remotely sweet, even when we were kids.
[even he sounds a little fond? but that's probably because, well. he kind of gets it.]
I think Anesan might have scared off anyone who called her something sweet without permission-- hell, I got scolded for calling her that in the first place. Said she wasn't old enough for it.
Your sister? [Since he doesn't recognize the term, but considering the topic and the echoing fondness on Chuuya's face, he's assuming that's the case.] Haha, she sounds like quite the person!
Not by blood, but-- close enough. I don't have any family outside the Mafia anyway, that I know of.
[like, maybe, but when you have none memory before a certain point then who knows!]
She's who mentored me after I joined and got assigned to her direct command. Very few people in the organization are willing to talk to the Boss the way she does... you know I once heard her threaten to sew his mouth shut? [a brief laugh, shaking his head.] Eh, but she's one of the few people I'd allow to get away with saying things like that to him, too. We work with him more often than the other executives do.
[RIP in rest having none memory. Sometimes you just get adopted by the mafia and/or yoinked off the streets by some dude who used to be friends with your dead dad? It happens.]
She really sounds like someone to know, though. Haha, I bet she's one of the only people who can keep you in line! [UNRULY CHUUYA... with one single leash.] And your boss? What's he like?
Oi, you say that like I'm even half as much trouble as you, XianXian.
[HE GETS AN EAR TWEAK FOR THAT...]
But the boss... he's a great leader. That's why I agreed to work for him in the first place-- he understands what has to be done to run the organization and keep everything in line, and he's the most logical and efficient person I've ever met.
Anything that needs to happen-- he'll make it happen, no matter what it is. Anything for the sake of the Mafia and Yokohama. If he asked me to lay down my life for the good of either of them, I'd do it.
[He's not deadset serious, but he will absolutely go terrorize literally everyone if the ability is left in his hands...]
Who's to say! If there's a way to get us all here, surely there's a way to open paths between other worlds and times. Some of us already come from places where that sort of thing is possible, you know? And I'm somewhat of a tinkerer, myself - it's in my nature to figure things like this out!
[RIP in rest everyone if he does, he's heading to Costco immediately in every AU.]
[haha, well. nevermind the first question, he's focusing on the second one-- it's more important, for right now. chuuya examines him for a moment, quiet.
...and a mix of having the occasional Feeling plus a little dose of instinct turns out to be a bad combination. wei wuxian lifts his head and leans in, and chuuya's ears twitch slightly as he reaches out to idly hook a finger underneath the choker.]
If you didn't also have a home to go back to--
I might want to find a way to bring you to mine.
[because unfortunately a furry little part of him is absolutely whispering 'mine', as his finger tugs lightly at that loop of leather.]
[Meanwhile here's this stupid asshole who had absolutely been teasing and was definitely not expecting such a genuine reaction?? There is a none-too-small part of him that still finds it incredibly difficult to wrap his mind around the idea that he's no longer in a place or situation where damn near everyone wants him dead...
Somewhat startled out of his initial gremlin response, he reaches forward so he can rub his thumbs against Chuuya's ears again, more for something to keep his hands busy than to tease. UNFUCKINGFORTUNATELY he's absolutely not fussed to have this choker tugged, and he grins.]
Haha, what, are you a fan of inviting trouble into your home?
Home's already full of trouble, you'd just fit in.
[things he'll probably look back on later and regret actually saying: THIS WHOLE CONVERSATION. another little tug follows, encouraging him up and into chuuya's lap as usual, as his eyes slide mostly shut at the attention to his ears.]
Maybe I'd just be selfish and keep you if I could.

Ah-- where did A-Ya come from?

[COME BACK, LIL FOX EARS.]
no subject
[REVENGE PETTING THE BUN EARS in hopes wwx will also embarrass himself! god he hates this he's not cute!]
Quit petting me and explain!
no subject
I can do both at the same time!
[He's absolutely doing both at the same time, still petting those ears even as his own swivel and twitch under Chuuya's hands.]
Another way of nicknaming! Taking part of the name or the full given name if it's short enough, adding "A" to the front.
no subject
Yeah? What'd yours be, in that case?

Wow, though. Chuuya sure is a dedicated little gremlin... His smile shifts a little, though what it shifts to is a little hard to pinpoint.]
Mm, well! If he's someone that deserving of your respect and dedication, I'm sure he's an impressive man.
no subject
[like he said, chuuya would literally die for him? that's fine and normal!
he does relent on the ears, at least, wwx is spared.]
no subject
Think I might get the chance to meet him someday?
[Bad.]
no subject
[he's just discussing this casually because he doesn't think wwx is entirely serious? after all-]
Or if there'd even be a way to get you back home if I could.

Guess there might be certain people I'd like to see again though. If I could.
no subject
[Also his entire world hates him except for like. Three kids, his zombie BFF and his future husband, so.
Anyway the shitheaded grin is back!! He finally lifts his stupid head from Chuuya's leg, but only so he can lean forward.]
Am I on that list?
