[ What a strange and sudden question! But Shi Qingxuan is already here for it, perking up just from being flagged down for conversation. He had only really come into Sand Dollars to try something new, so why not enjoy a little chat while he's already here?
It really is a strange question, though, and one that makes Shi Qingxuan frown thoughtfully as he plops onto one of the plush chairs, mug of café au lait cupped between his hands. ]
Well... [ Hm. Shi Qingxuan looks from the young man's face, to the book, and then to his face again. His face practically has "I want to toss this book overboard!" written all over it, but the book itself doesn't look the least bit familiar to Shi Qingxuan. Whatever its plot is, it must have really pissed this guy off. ] It's hard to say? There's certainly something horrifying and tragic in doing something that you yourself don't understand. No-one would want to kill their own brother, so if they're forced into it without even a reason or explanation, isn't that sad?
[ There are some liberties and assumptions there, but Shi Qingxuan is only guessing, his tone conversational and thoughtful. ]
it's in a book! 📚
