All that's left is the one that's still steeping and one tea that? Looks okay? Even if it's cooled significantly. At least between the two, he can pick.
He also doesn't answer Hua Cheng and instead, chooses his cup and takes a sip. Ginger and honey. Perhaps not as good as it would have been if it was still hot but it'll do.)
Got it. (Easy enough. He'll give in. It's the better deal, anyway.) I'm not complaining.
(Holding his cup in his hands,)
The doors closed at the same time. I suppose that means we'll fall asleep at the same time, too.
(Which has him looking around for a clock? Is there a clock???)
[ disapproving!! ] By that logic, I've also slept in far worse places.
[ sorry about your teacup, claude. xie lian was also going to take his cup away, though, so, he and hua cheng were at least on the same wavelength there... the parenting vibes.
he's the one to check claude's other cup for him, watching to make sure it doesn't oversteep without saying anything. ] The rulebook said the doors would close if it were necessary.
[ ... ] I wonder what that means for us this evening. [ whatever it means, xie lian really doesn't like it! thanks! ]
Gege, please indulge this San Lang in his request for tonight.
[ Claude's science tea just gets put on the reception desk so that it's out of his distracted reach. Hopefully. He'll toss it out for real when they get this taken care of. ]
Last week, people were apparently banging on the doors in the dining hall but no one in here could hear them. I don't imagine us trying to knock on the doors upstairs would give us different results this time.
I have to wonder if there were others trapped in that... space area we gained access to.
[ that gets hua cheng a Look, a little plaintive, that says "we will talk about this later". Claude is right there.
anyway. his expression shifts to something more uneasy. ] ...I hope not. [ considering! what xie lian saw this week! boy howdy. ] More than anything...I hope no one's alone.

(What is this? The "worst sleeping place" olympics? It's making his back hurt just thinking about it... he's too young for back pain.
Anyway just going to sit there and look at his tea. He doesn't like this either. He doesn't mind waiting but he hates not being able to do anything.)
I wonder where everyone else is.
