[ Jing Yuan pauses, as if he has to think about that. His motivations for joining the Cloud Knights originally weren't, um.
Great. So, there is another thoughtful hum. It is clear he has to legitimately, seriously think about this. But, ultimately? ]
...I suppose you can consider myself something like that, even if I believe that might be a bit charitable.
But the fact remains that we've been grouped together. Though I doubt I can avoid offending everyone, I would rather not incite someone into a state if I could help it.
[ His reasoning here is really straightforward, though he would prefer innocent people not get in the crossfire either. Just please don't expect him to start extoling about the virtues of humankind and Colletesque phrases about kindness or something? ]
[ that's a better answer and one khun accepts more easily. he might have accepted a complete affirmation to his assumption too, but he honestly cares more about feeling out what makes sense. this lines up more than jing yuan trying the southern wizard approach. ]
...unless you can read minds, you don't need to worry about it. [ it's spat rather than properly said, since he's still kind of testy about everything that's transpired. ]
...if you're offering I won't say no to more. Broken ribs are a pain.
[ I have no idea where this is in the space time continuum but given how exhausted everyone is and how hard ginger went, there's no way he'd be fully healed.
it helps that he thinks he has a solid grasp on their relationship too, they're teammates in the end and that's something he's comfortable with being.
he's quiet for a moment, redirecting his focus to a problem he might be able to solve rather than his own emotions. ]
[ Space-time continuum efforts are truly an unknown. ]
I shall deliver my assistance, regardless of the ultimate result. I should hope others have also endeavored to assist you.
[ It will only add to what he can provide. As it is, healing has never been Jing Yuan's specialty, unfortunately. Offensive or even somewhat support-aligned capabilities in the vaguest of senses are something that have come easier to him on principle. In truth, illusionary and transformation magics are also something new to him, hence his necessity in constant practice and application.
Still, it is not an impossibility, and Jing Yuan has been ensuring that his efforts have been outside those main categories, branching into others as a just-in-case. So he draw upon magic and channel the energy towards the other's ribs, in an attempt to further correct or heal them. ]
Was there any indication on how he was utilizing such an ability at all? Even if you do not know the 'how'.
[ a nod as he says it, Jing Xuan hasn't been the only one and thankfully he's not too prideful to turn away help, at least not like this. if this were a few months earlier, it'd be a different story but oh the tumultuous period that is youth. ]
I didn't feel anything, but if it wasn't magic and just a skill he's had, it doesn't make sense to use it now.
[ ...he's missing something, he's sure of it, but he's not sure what. ]
[ Jing Yuan has met with quite a numerous amount of people, each with their own varying levels of uh...personality quirks, but it is always good when people are receptive to being healed. That could get no good real quick if it weren't true. ]
Hm, no. Something like that one would keep as a trump card if it were particularly special. But since he made it obvious to you, I assume, it wasn't used in that manner.
It makes me wonder if it happened intentionally at all.
[ Accidental ability activation isn't too farfetched of a concept for him. ]
Accident or not, that's not the point. If he does it to me again, if anyone does it to me, I'll kill them.
[ ...so it's probably better to find out the method. khun's extremely healthy violent tendencies aside, having people reading each other's mind is no bueno. ]
...All the same, having a bloodbath on our hands would not be ideal.
Let's hope we merely find the method before it happens once more and take care of it that way.
[ Jing Yuan will be doing his best to isolate it himself even if Khun might not bother. But he will not tolerate any other killing attempts either and is preparing himself for the possibility of maybe stumbling upon another scene just like before though being more active, for better or worse. ]
He might have some idea, but obviously I'm not going to ask him myself.
[ ...he can because he's no coward but also that would probably be a bad idea! and he will fight jing yuan if he needs to because that's just the Khun Aguero Agnis way of life but he doesn't want to, really.
Jing Yuan is the type of person who wants to nip the issue in the bud before it becomes one, even if it is far too late for the first to have been. But, the future is not set in stone. ]
Hmm...I can understand why that would be best.
I'll be looking into it myself. This world is still strange, and we are not aware of all the phenomena that exists; who knows what other kind of effects we may be finding ourselves waltzing into without knowing how to evade or combat it?
It'd be nice to have a database, even if the library was complete. Looking things up by hand takes way too long. [ though that's not really the point, he's still just irritated and it shows. ]
If you find out let me know and I'll do the same. [ on another night he wouldn't have tacked on the last bit, but he feels like he has to here. you take your losses and deal with them, just like your wins. ]
Haha...ah, you're also used to the wonderful marvels of advanced technology?
[ Jing Yuan knows that it's words spoken out of irritance, but also it has been fairly unusual for people to speak about technology that he finds himself asking nonetheless. ]
Very well then...consider this an agreement. It should prove to be convenient for the both of us.
[ Working with people is easy for him, even if he moves at a different pace than others. ]
It's technically my specialty. [ though he's a user of it rather than a creator. ]
We can compare notes on both those things another time. [ when he's in a better state of mind, because he honestly does miss all the technological amenities missing in this world. ]
[ Jing Yuan gives a nod at the other, and while he is admittedly curious about what he means by his specialty, it also occurs to him that he should very much leave Khun to take his rest.
Perhaps they can talk more about technology and indeed compare notes later. ]
Of course, I'm just glad to have been of assistance.
[ He doesn't say that it was what most people would have done because he knows Khun has...uh, ruffled feathers. So with that, he decides to rise to his feet from his chair, passing the other a friendly smile. ]
With that, I shall leave you to your recovery. Rest well, Khun.

I understand. That's something quite unfortunate to have done to you.
But, fortunately that is not an ability I have in my arsenal.
[ Or maybe as The Divine Foresight, it can be very well included.
...
Haha. Just kidding. ]
Have you had the opportunity to be fully healed?
