He just grins at Zizhen, pleased he is getting to torture his friend like this. It's fun and he hasn't been able to do it for a very long time.

The oil part makes him scrunch his nose because ewww! Also ewww! His uncle must be using that stuff too if he's doing it with a guy too! Bleh, he's so going to barf!

"Yeah, it's unpleasant. They've.. they're not.. I'm glad they've found each other and all that but god! It's a good thing one of them isn't a woman or we'd have a swarm of their babies."

He scoots down further on his pillows and carefully rolls onto his side, so he was facing Zizhen. He winces a little and his smile fades as he rubs his arm, looking for a moment at his wounded shoulder. "Do you think I'll ever be able to use my sword again?"
