[ it's not the first time that xie lian has seen this memory, this week, though, a part of him hopes it might be the last. he's about to say something - convenient, maybe, that it played now, or i told you, it's complicated or yes, a god, just a banished one, funny, isn't it? but -
then he's being hugged? xie lian has not just been straight out hugged many times in his life. he looks stunned, hands half raised in the air, almost unsure what to do with himself. ]
- Mr. Sholmes...?
[ but he will. slowly drop his hands to rest on his back to hug him back....? ]
It's quite alright. [He draws back a little, smiling warmly.] A warm embrace does the soul quite good, I think. And I really do think, with all the turmoil you've been through...you deserve more than you can handle, my dear fellow.
