I'd meant to do this before, but honestly last month was a bit of mess. So, here we are, the stakes lower and less obnoxious felines involved.

Clinic update: I am, ideally, looking to work with Kaveh in arranging an actual building instead of the shoddy apartment I have myself set up in. I doubt that'll be complete anytime soon, but suffice it to say the clinic is still in operation as-is until further notice.

It's been brought to my attention a few times, but in light of our many incidents here, I will be arranging classes for proper first aid. I will be doing this on each weekend unless a medical emergency arrives. Hopefully that'll ensure the lot of you know how to better set a bone or a papercut, hm? Let me know if you intend on participating.

Lastly, and less important but... we'll say it's a bit of curiosity: I'd like for you to share your favorite poem. I don't really care about genre, just share it here. Thanks.

I did not consider it, but I suppose each world would have its own poetry and songs. Perhaps there's some fortune in bringing us here.

Daan... gongzi. [ He just can't leave it there. It sounds too wrong to his ears alone like that. ] I do know some. My sect is fond of poems and music.

Gentle breeze on grass by the shore,
The boat's tall mast alone at night.
Stars fall to the broad flat fields,
Moon rises from the great river's flow.
Have my writings not made any mark?
An official should stop when old and sick.
Fluttering from place to place I resemble,
A gull between heaven and earth.

I appreciate you sharing. For me, I can recite some medical books I had to study, but as far as poetry and songs go I don't really have much experience.

Anyway. Thank you. The ones you've shared have been nice.

What I'm sharing is just a small piece of my memories from another world. It surely does not have the same importance as what you are doing, helping us to better care for each other. You are a kind soul.

If there are other poems that you would like, I am happy to share them. Or perhaps you can compose some yourself? Like other arts, it only takes practice.

...Mm, I don't know about kind. I figured if I taught people some first aid, it'd just give me less work to do.

I wouldn't have the knack for that, but I'd like to know more poetry from you. Would you be willing to write them down?

[zewu_jun]

[ He smiles, because somehow that reminds him of home. ]

That may be, but I still believe it demonstrates your good heart no less. I wish to be the same.

I will be happy to! I can copy the ones I know for you. At least we have no shortage of writing tools.

...Fine, fine. Whatever you want to think. [He isn't really trying to be difficult about it, but he's still a bit uncomfortable when someone calls him kind or good.],/small>

I'd appreciate it, actually. Thank you.

[ Lan Xichen is pleased enough by that answer. Even if the guy on the other end sounds sulky, somehow he assumes the best. Maybe because the tone reminds him of his brother. ]

I will copy the ones I remember and deliver them to you!

[ Yes, he is going to make a little handmade book. ]

Perhaps others can copy their favorites as well.

That's... well, that's very considerate of you. Thank you.

I was looking to fill a book, so this is helpful.

I hope you obtain a worthy collection. Since we are here, it feels appropriate that we aid each other in our goals.

[That might not be what Daan had in mind, but Lan Xichen is still happy about it.]

bless u

I agree with the sentiment. Either way, I still appreciate you providing the poetry.

[zewu_jun]

Of course. It warmed my heart a bit to remember a piece of home as well, so I thank you for the opportunity to remember it.
