Tail.


After one whole day of peace, it was unavoidable that things would have to get messed again.
While WooPil was out with Chan for some "mysterious" business, LeYang thought well to cut off the big fox tail of the plushie WooPil got himself at the toy store and… wear it in his pants, so that he thinks he will be like WooPil and thus his brother won't have to be shy anymore.

As imaginable, though, his ungrateful fox brother didn't show any appreciation to his gesture. Instead, he literally fainted when he saw the tailless remains of his plush in Zhongli's bedroom.

Chan rushes WooPil to his own residence and summons Lani there, to check on the child.
The doctor visits WooPil and determines that he simply passed out because of shock and that there won't be any serious consequences.

After Lani left, Chan leaves WooPil to rest in his residence and hurries to go to Earth to see if he can buy another of the same plush, to replace the broken one. He is really annoyed, despite understanding that LeYang didn't do it for a bad reason.
Of course, though, the fox plush was the one and only the store had left and Chan didn't even manage to find a way to have a copy delivered. It's as if that one plush was the last left in the world.

When he comes back, he is even more bitter. But he is soon warned that there is someone who wants to meet him in the square of the city, so he has to go there.
When he arrives, he finds himself in front of the King of Arcanis, the father of DaNa, who just wanted to exchange some words with him, since he and Chen are the only members of Shige's family left.

Alpha_ She is starting to be even more nervous, unsure what he might have to say, but if it is nothing she heard even before... "Say it then..." She shuts her eyes, trying to mentally prepare herself.
"This saying...well, as long as everyone is fine, the past doesn't matter anymore.
I...would love to meet WooPil but...it Is getting late..." She fears coming across Zhongli in truth. She can't help but show she is a bit nervous.

Chan «Well… you know that Lani is always… running DNA tests on people… and… he did it on… us two…» He feels increasingly awkward as he goes on. «Well… it turns out that we… are brother and sister…» He takes a breath.
«It's not too late, you could even stay for dinner if it gets late, it would surely not be a problem for us. Servants had a few days off too, so they are well rested too!»
«Is… something the matter?» he asks, noticing her nervousness.

Alpha_ She is somewhat relieved at first, by what he says, but then surprise triggers too. She blinks at the revelation. ''Brother and sister...but even so...matters little by now...'' She has very mixed feelings on the matter, but tries to look not too bothered.
''I...'' She shakes her head slightly. ''I just...shouldn't go inside the palace, better not. I would be out of place, he can come to thank me at home one of these days...'' She can't even come up with a decent excuse to avoid the palace. ''I really have to return to Johan after buying his gifts.''

Chan «By… now?» He blinks, quite confused and sort of baffled by her reaction, but he doesn't intend to interfere.
«If you don't want to come to the palace, you don't need to circle around it, you can just say. It's not like you are forced to.»
He nods at her words. «As you wish. You can leave the gifts to the guards at the gate, after specifying who they are for. They will make sure to deliver them.»
He bows his head. «See you around, Miko.» He heads to the gates of the city to go on with his task.

Alpha_ "I mean that we are both adults...with our own people..." She knows she is screwing up, she didn't expect to meet Chan in the first place, she wasn't prepared at all. Plus, she is also messed by the news, completely lost.
"I'm sorry..." She says in a low tone, looking down. "See you around..."
