[All that gets is a faint snort out of him.] I'm sure he'll be happy enough with that. He's more talkative than me.

[Since Shun is somewhat reluctant to let Ren praise him easily, he might take advantage of the chance to do it to someone else. Or, knowing the both of them, comment on how hard it is to convince Shun to do anything.]

[nopixiedust]

Most people are more talkative than you. It'll be all the other things that will be fun to find out about him.

[Especially since Shun is so prickly about some things.]

[revolutionfalcon]

So in other words, you're wondering what kind of person would get themselves into a relationship with me.

[Which isn't an unreasonable question, really, considering Shun wonders about why Ren puts up with him sometimes. He can't imagine Wendy's going to get much genuine information out of Ren from a single meeting, though.]

[nopixiedust]

And what kind of person you'd get into a relationship yourself! [She grins up at him.] I can't learn everything just from you.

[Besides, even Shun might get a little biased towards someone he's dating.]

[revolutionfalcon]

[Shun shrugs a little at that, since it's a fair point. He'd insisted quite a few times that romance was a waste of time that he had no interest in, so someone making it creep up on him is quite significant enough.]

I suppose. It's not that easy to learn what causes relationships like that, though.

[Especially with theirs. His and Ren's mutual trust is grounded in something neither of them are fond of sharing, so that itself would take time to learn.]

[nopixiedust]

That's alright. We have all the time in the world here, right? At least until we disappear.

[So a limited amount of time, really. Still, Wendy figures there's not much she can do on that end. She has an afterlife to live.]

[revolutionfalcon]

That's not all the time in the world. [It's something on Shun's mind increasingly often the longer he's here. There's woefully few people who've been here as long as he has, and he wonders whether there's any meaning to that, or whether they're just overdue to disappear.]

But I can't see you finding out something that personal. [Shun's certainly not revealing it himself, and Ren isn't the sort of person to give up those matters easily. Revealing the depths of their trust means revealing things about themselves that neither of them are prone to sharing easily.]

[nopixiedust]

That's fine. [She's not planning on being too nosy just yet.] Learning anything will be good for me.

So, no more dances even for him tonight?

[revolutionfalcon]

If you're that interested. [Shun doesn't really understand why she's that into the idea of learning more about Ren, but he's definitely not opposed to Ren having more allies here.

As for the question, he considers it a little before turning his head away a bit.] That depends on if he asks.

[nopixiedust]

It's cute how you try to pretend you're so nonchalant about your lover.

[Dork.]

Well, I'll leave you to it, then, and see if I can't find other friends of mine. They're probably even more hopeless.

[revolutionfalcon]

[Wendy might be able to pick out the slightest hint of pink in Shun's face before he very pointedly looks in another direction this time. The obvious emotion doesn't last long, though.] It's not anyone else's business how I feel about him anyway.

[There's a reason he usually makes people have to fight for the information. Still, if she's leaving, at least he can escape the subject for now, and he just shrugs slightly.]

Go ahead.

[nopixiedust]

[Even if it doesn't last long, a victory is a victory, and Wendy's giggling lingers around even when she's turned around to disappear back into the crowds.]
