There's a place that makes crepes. Have you ever had one? They're very good for eating while one walks.
[Mojo joins Fairy so they can walk together and get to know each other, leaving vampire and cultivator to get to know each other better. That works for Lestat honestly because he's pleased to have this chance. Especially now that he finds himself looking on the young man in a new light. He's always thought him beautiful but now...]
But I was thinking perhaps a walk around the park? It's lovely in the evening. Besides, it does allow for something fun for our companions to explore together.
Count yourself lucky. It's offensive. The feng shui is so bad, I'm surprised it's not crawling with resentful corpses.
[ He gave Lestat a curious sideways look. So he'd had a place to go as soon as he arrived? Jin Ling clicked his tongue. He wished he'd had somewhere else to go.
...that wouldn't have required humbling himself to Hanguang-jun or living with him and Wei Wuxian in all their disgusting romance. ]
When would you have asked? Savory. [ Remembering his earlier speculation, he amended: ] Unless it's pork buns, then sweeter is better.
That's what I meant, there wasn't a -- [ He cut himself off and huffed. It hardly mattered. ]
The natural world has a way and an order to it, one that directs where spiritual and resentful energies flow and gather. When we humans arrange our buildings and homes in balance with that order, we too can control where that energy goes. Thus we bring good fortune into our lives.
[ His lecturing tone takes on a scornful note. ]
But if you don't care about that, arrange things however and all the resentful energies of humanity can just collect in one spot. Tch.
[ He gives Lestat a sidelong look. ] Those are the basics of Feng Shui. Was there something specific you wanted to know?
[Lestat listens, actually genuinely intrigued by the concept. To think that arranging things could change the energy of places. Perhaps that's why he likes the energy of New Orleans so much. The clutter makes it so chaotic.
But he does enjoy organization too. There's a beauty to it.]
Honestly I just like learning everything about you and the things you care about. Even just hearing this much about feng shui intrigues me just because I can tell that it matters to you.
[He looks to him.]
Is it only about arranging things? Does color play into it at all?

He takes a moment to consider the question and nods imperiously. ]
That's acceptable. It's better than the usually scenery I've had to put up with.
[ So saying, he lets Lestat take the lead and then falls into step beside him. ]

Ah but they're not talking about that, of course.]
You know, I've not asked before. Do you prefer sweet or savory things more?

Tell me more about feng shui. I've heard some about it but I admit I'm not as familiar with the practices of it.
