Master Shen's... brother?

[Hold on, wait. She knew he he had... another Shen Qingqiu, but. Was this an actual blood brother, or one of those like "brothers in spirit" things that men sometimes liked to do with their good friends?

Also wait again, whose peace of mind is disturbed? Konoha's might be, but she's still attentive enough of a host to actually, somewhat automatically, reach out for the bottle and refill his drink.]

It- It just wouldn't be an interruption is what I mean... Even here at the farmstead it wouldn't!

[Sure, during the Sanguis and Iris moons things got quite frisky, and the triple moons hoh boy, but between that it was just... a normal amount of newlyweds intimacy! Nothing to interrupt... mostly!]

[ Now he really does laugh, warm and prolonged, with an elegant shake of his head at the end. ]

I'm not questioning what you've said, Miss Konoha, this Shen believes you. As for my brother--the one also called Shen Qingqiu. For the sake of ease, we've taken to referring to each other as brothers, such as twins might.

[ Hahaha because................................................ what else could they say, really? They live together, too, so. ]

[lumberlady]

Oh.

[Okay.

That.

Made sense. Which... she should probably say, instead of just staring at him wide-eyed and off guard.]

Oh, that makes sense. Sorry, I just got confused... I guess if there's two Master Shens you have to come up with something... that isn't "other me"? I started thinking "oh, no, how could I miss Master Shen's brother showing up... !"

[peerlesscucumber]

[ he smiles, shaking his head. ]

It was the easiest thing for us to decide on in the end. Our lives... are not perfect mirrors of each other, that much we know. Siblings is easier to explain to others, as well.

[ Also is weirdly apt for reasons he'll never discuss, but that's neither here nor there. ]

Does the wine suit your tastes?

[ And the sleeping dragonlet suit a certain maternal cuddling? ]

[lumberlady]

It's probably a good idea... Otherwise people like me will be really confused if Master Shen starts talking about stuff like "parallel worlds" and all that... But I guess maybe not? If Master Shen's other friends are all a bit more like Master Shen...

[Things she'd never considered... Was she the dumb friend?

But also, things that didn't bother her... So what if she was? Someone has to be!]

Mmm, it's really tasty! It's different from the sake I'm used to... I can't tell how, but it feels... lighter? The taste, I mean. But also heavier? On my tongue...

[... She loves food but she might not be suited to food blogging. Definitely not as suited as she is to motherhood, completely taken with the dragonlet snoozing against her stomach and lower chest.]

[ Briefly thinking over some of his other friends, his idle response is: ]

Most would have equal headaches and confusion, so it does make things simpler on us all.

[ There are very few people quite like Master Shen, in this case, and he's aware of it; not for lack of intelligence, but for the chaotic truth largely unknown about his background or why he's genre savvy in stupid ways. ]

Mm, yes, this one believes he understands what you mean. It's refreshing, yet also grounding.

[ With his eyes dipping down briefly to where his dragonlet charge sleeps, he smiles. ]

Even unexpected.
