[ it's true. at the mere mention, caelus wants to meet anyone that would call the man before him a 'jerk' or even less than a perfect gentleman. that would be a fun conversation to navigate, potentially illuminating when caelus only knows jing yuan as warm and considerate. this thought bleeds into another: he'd like to see what jing yuan looks like when he's lost his temper.
caelus knows his expression will be under observation. prepared, he smiles and holds jing yuan's gaze, nice and steady. ]
I know something about the Mara-Struck. I can fight, so you don't have to worry about that.
[ it's not a true answer to the question at hand, but it feels worth deviating to say. because otherwise jing yuan might assume he's dainty, fragile, in need of protection.
back to the matter of the ambrosial arbor. ]
I've heard some of it. It's upsetting your cycles and stuff like that. The more powerful the person, the more troublesome that has to be.
[ that's why jing yuan can't go on without a mate, is it not? no tiptoeing required. ]
And I'm here since it's been a real hassle for you personally.
