Going to Polychromatic, on why this is a bad idea

[moonlitrequiem]

You lose interest in my type. You prefer the more talkative ones.

[Not arguing that. But there's a Hei there!]

...

I can be louder.

[By a decibel.]

[Another nod. Of course. Everyone views these things differently - that's why Mao and Hei aren't even talking about that part of it. But still....]

Maybe this mundane can last a little longer. [The curses might help there.]

[unflagging]

Trust me, they can take a lot. Maybe even more than you'd think.

[moonlitrequiem]

[It would be nice.]

[There's another nod. Same dead-eyed expression, but Yin might be a little more hopeful now. Maybe, somewhere underneath it.]

[unflagging]

C'mon, honey. Try a smile.

[moonlitrequiem]

[Lucky for him, she's been taught. And since he asked, she uses a finger to make a partial one.]

[unflagging]

There you go. That's the spirit.

[For someone with the emotional range of a spoon, she's surprisingly entertaining. To him, at least.]

[moonlitrequiem]

[At least someone thinks so. The mundane is mostly in this for the challenge.]

Do you smile all the time? [Because that's what he's mostly been doing.]

[unflagging]

Oh, most of the time, I suppose. I don't see why not.

[moonlitrequiem]

[What a very different person. She's just going to watch him, now.]

[unflagging]

[Be careful. Some people don't like what they see when they watch for too long...]

[moonlitrequiem]

[It might not mean anything to her. She keeps staring.]
