No! I don't want to forget...

[ Jiang Cheng definitely hits his head on a wall. ]

It's... strange to get such a thing from you when you're drunk. I was most worried that when you were sober it wouldn't be something you'd want me to have seen and so I made a joke of it.

And I don't think I flatter you enough. Fully clothed or not you stop me in my tracks every time I see you.

[radishlobbyist]

I'm sorry. I'm not very good at this. The pictures or the aftermath. Mostly the aftermath.

I won't lie, it's embarrassing. It turns out I'm too forward when drunk.

But I don't mind you seeing me like that.

[jiangrycheng]

The picture was good. It’s my fault the aftermath isn’t that great. I’m sorry, Wen Qing.

I enjoy you being forward... I’m not... I mean I struggle to be wit you.

[radishlobbyist]

Don't do that, Jiang Cheng.

Don't berate yourself like this. I got us into a ridiculous situation.

[jiangrycheng]

[ What would he do with himself if not berate himself? ]

I handled it poorly. I should have been sincere in my reaction.

We should try it again.

1/2

[radishlobbyist]

Is this your way of asking me for more pictures?

[ Now you've got her bright red, Jiang Cheng, she hopes you're proud of yourself. ]

[radishlobbyist]

[ Shortly after, she sends an image without another word.

She had taken a lot of pictures last night, okay. Nothing random about that, it turns out drunk her is meticulous in her sexting. ]

[jiangrycheng]

[ This photo is definitely saved on his phone with the other one because he really can't help himself. ]

I can't decide whether I want to use my fingers or tongue to touch you more.

[radishlobbyist]

[ Oh. Now it's her turn flustered again. She hadn't expected him to take it a step farther. ]

What if I told you I want both. Your fingers first and then your tongue.

[jiangrycheng]

Then I would be glad not to have to choose between the two.

[radishlobbyist]

And I would be so grateful to have both.

I would be so grateful to have you at my side again. I miss you.

[jiangrycheng]

I hate that you can't always be by my side, Wen Qing. I would be stronger and happier for it.

[radishlobbyist]

So would I. I don't like being too long away from those closest to me.

[ Because she worries and fusses, but also because everything feels a little easier, a little less daunting, when she knows she has his eyes resting on her. ]

[jiangrycheng]

Maybe one day we can.

[radishlobbyist]

It's something nice to look forward to.

Don't be too hard on yourself while I'm not there to chide you for it.

[jiangrycheng]

You know me, Wen Qing.

[radishlobbyist]

Very well. Don't be too hard on yourself or you will have to answer to me when I return.

[jiangrycheng]

I like having you to answer too, though, but I will do my best.

[radishlobbyist]

It's not much longer now.

I don't like it that much anymore to be apart from you. It feels silly but it is a fact.

[jiangry]

I don't think it is silly. I miss you when we are not together, Wen Qing.

[radishlobbyist]

Have you considered that means we are both ridiculous?

[jiangry]

I suppose that may be so but I don't mind.

[radishlobbyist]

Then let us settle into ridiculousness along with domesticity.

[jiangry]

You will find no argument from me.

[radishlobbyist]

We will just have to be grumpier than normal at everyone else to make up for it, or our fearsome reputations won't survive.
