I need your cultivation skills to set some talismans off for me. I have them written out, but if you can power them when I tell you to, I'll owe you one.
Then show me where to do it and when. It will be done.
[He puffs up a little.]
I'm sure your students would benefit from my insight. Send me the hours and their names.
Oh. [Very casually, but he's pleased with himself.] I should tell you I've arranged a contract. Zewu-jun recommended her. We're still determining the details, but it will be settled soon. That will make it easier for me to be at the temple regularly.
Thanks, A-Ling. [ Ah, that puffing up is so cute. ] I'll do that! I don't have many yet, but if you know anyone, send them along.
[ His head tilts to one side when Jin Ling continues speaking, and then his eyebrow quirks gently. A contract with someone Lan Xichen recommended? Hmmmm! ]
That's great news! Anything that makes life better for A-Ling is good for me. I will let you tell Jiang Cheng, but do it soon, okay? Who is it?
You should use that Network to announce that you're taking students. I've seen other people do it.
Her name is Inara Serra. She's beautiful and gracious. I'll introduce you if you haven't met her, but mind yourself. [Sternly;] It will reflect badly on Zewu-jun if you don't.
Serra-guniang? I know her -- I helped paint her walls. She seems like a very respectable choice. I didn't realize she was familiar with Zewu-jun as well.
[ Peeeeeer ] Is that some favoritism I see for your uncle's sworn brother? Aiya, Jin Ling likes someone more than me!!

Oh, also, Lan Zhan and I are going to run away to the beach for a few days after. Feel like taking over the archery training while we're gone?
