“It is nice to sit down and relax every once in a while,” Lu Xun nodded, wrapping his arms around himself to retain more warmth from the fire. “I wish I was able to rest more often, though under different circumstances.”
“Ah, will you keep this incident a secret? I wish for no one to know of my error.”
Ling Tong laughs, “well, I don’t really want people to know I almost gave our Commander frostbite, so your secret is safe with me.”
“And yeah... if you failed to notice you were on fire, that’s probably a good sign you need a break,” he gives Lu Xun a sympathetic smile. “Take the night off, it’s not like you don’t deserve it.”

As Zhang Liao stormed his garrison after Han Dang’s troops fallen as well as him? .. He did took a beating but at least it was a fight that he won’t forget.. Few cuts won’t kill the veteran that easily…
“I gotta admit,Zhang Liao of Wei was pretty good of his caliber.. But i must get better first..”
Ling Tong grimaces at the mention of Zhang Liao. “Tell me about it, I’ve got a few new scars I’ve gotta pay him back for.” A hand reflexively reaches up to rub his arm, where a not-quite-healed wound was still hidden under his clothing and a layer of bandages.
“He nearly took me out at the bridge. Honestly, I’m amazed I survived.” He huffs a dry laugh, absentmindedly kicking at the ground with his feet.
“It’s good to see you made it out in one piece too.”

Had Ling Tong not intervened, he certainly would’ve collapsed to the floor. Gripping the man’s sleeve, Lu Xun endured the wave of pain with a groan, shaking his head in response to the question. No, he could tough it out - he had to, didn’t he?
“N-no, it is alright,” the wounded strategist forced a reply, unsure what mixed signals his eyes were revealing. Undoubtedly pain, confusion, yet a fiery spirit remained, albeit dim. The concern in Ling Tong’s stern gaze remained evident, the general keeping a firm hold should another dizzy spell strike.
“How many more must I lose…, no, I…” Xun murmured, his tone meeker than he would’ve liked. Yet, Ling Tong clearly wished to help ease his pain. Perhaps he could let down the barriers, just for this instance.
“…please, can you stay with me?”
“Yeah, of course.” Ling Tong tries - and fails - to keep the concern out of his voice, “but you need to get some rest for now.” He gently pushes Lu Xun down onto the bed, not really giving the injured strategist a say in the matter.
Taking a glance around the tent, there isn’t really anywhere to sit, so he scoots back to the end of the bed, sitting with his back to the tent wall.
“At least try, ok?. I’ll be here if you need me.”
“Hey, don’t sweat it. Hefei was a disaster for all of us, let’s just make sure it never happens again.” He breathes a sigh, stretching lazily before turning to Han Dang again.
“I heard you took a bit of a beating though, heal up alright?”
Why is “pretty boy” considered an insult like call me a pretty boy Call me a pretty boy right now I want to be the prettiest boy you’ve ever seen

Ling Tong approaches Xiaoqiao, giving her a worried look.
"...are you sure this is a good idea?”

“I’ve been told that I’m not allowed to let you leave until you try some of the local cuisine.” Ling Tong turns with a flourish, gesturing for the foreigner to follow him.
“Ok maybe not; but come on, there’s a place over here that has the best meat buns. You’ve gotta at least give them a try.”

After one particularly dumb decision, Ling Tong finds himself dangling from a tree branch several feet off the ground. Gripping on with his bare hands, he tries to hoist himself up and get one leg over the branch, but it’s slippery from the rain, and he doesn’t get very far.
He's about to resign himself to his grizzly fate of... maybe breaking one of his legs or something, when there’s a noise below him. He looks down to see a familiar face.
“Uh, hey Yin, fancy seeing you here.”

Now dressed in simple clothes, Lu Xun ran the damaged fabric between his fingers, pouting slightly before setting them aside. Despite the hazards, he could never part with his trademark coat-tails. Outside the tent, he met Ling Tong’s attempts to re-light the fire pit. He could’ve sworn that he extinguished those flames; still, this seemed more ideal than the blanket predicament.
“Perhaps I shall request fire-proof coat-tails to be made,” the strategist mused as he sat beside the fire pit. “I admit I am particular about my attire - it is how I express myself while remaining humble in nature.”
Ling Tong snickers to himself, barely biting back a comment about how humble the window at the front of Lu Xun’s clothes is.
“Probably not a bad idea.”
The fire is quickly lit, and he scoots back to sit beside Lu Xun. Giving him a quick glance, he smirks. “Okay, it is kind of weird seeing you out of your uniform. Feeling better though?”

DANDELION
You Are: Scrappy and tough, you’re a pull-yourself-up-by-your-bootstraps kind of person. You don’t give up easily and you often thrive in situations that others would find discouraging. You have an instinct to serve others and see yourself as most useful in times or places of crisis, but you may over rely on your toughness and forget how sensitive you really are.
GINGER
You Are: Spirited. A feisty and fiery companion, quick with an opinion, a laugh or an idea. Warm, friendly and inviting, you never allow an awkward moment to pass. In fact, even cold and distant people warm up to you more quickly than others. Negative experiences or too much indulgence, however, can send you into a bit of a tailspin, and when hurt you may become quite cold and distant. Ginger people do best when their natural warmth and affection is flowing freely, giving them easy access to their love of life.
PEPPERMINT
You Are: Unflappable. You are cool in the crisis, calm in the storm, collected amongst the chaos. You’re a breath of fresh air, a waft of inspiration to the down-and-out, a refreshing, inspiring, uplifting person to be around. Of course, even a cool cucumber like yourself can run into trouble. You may try to take on too much, which can leave you feeling weighed down and not quite yourself.

“Most, if not all, tents are stocked with extra clothes, this should be no issue,” Lu Xun noted, slowly climbing off the bed. Reaching behind him, he frowned as his fingers met the now-damp remains of the coattails. He’d worry about the replacement later, the idea of the fire appealing to him.
“In that case, I will make sure my new clothes do not catch on fire again,” he chuckled, motioning for Ling Tong to step out so he could change.
“Don’t worry, I’ll tackle you if you get too close.” Ling Tong teases, exiting the tent.
The fire outside, while it had been spared the bucket of water, had died down to just a few smouldering remains, so he gets to work gathering more firewood together to see if he can salvage or re-light it. It’s probably what had caught Lu Xun’s clothes in the first place. He hopes, anyway. As iconic as the tails are, he is not surprised that they’d be a fire hazard.
