Only when it comes to me and the kids.

[shangba]

My poor husband must bear the burden of discipline.

[emperorssmile]

That’s fine.

I won’t discipline him for breaking minor Lan doctrines I don’t think are necessary, though.

[shangba]

He is your child, before he is the sect's.

[emperorssmile]

As long as he doesn’t put himself or others in too much danger, I’ll be happy.

How’s his walking coming along?

[shangba]

He trots with impunity and marches undaunted.

[emperorssmile]

Still tripping over his own feet like he was before we left?

[shangba]

Weeps less on the fall.

[emperorssmile]

Less frustrating for him than it was at first.

He’s going to be a handful once he can climb out of his cot or open doors.

[shangba]

He will take after his mother.

[emperorssmile]

That’s what I’m worried about!

[shangba]

I shall love him the better for it.

[emperorssmile]

You’re going to worry the first time he comes home with a broken bone.

[shangba]

If he lacks a core.

[emperorssmile]

Only time will tell.

I broke my ankle when my core wasn’t all that developed yet.

[shangba]

What came of it?

[emperorssmile]

A lot of time trying to escape from being stuck in bed. I think it took longer to heal because I kept trying to hobble around so much.

[shangba]

Wei Ying ever shies from peace.

[emperorssmile]

Peace can get boring after a while.

[shangba]

Will it be so for Wei Ying once more?

[emperorssmile]

Hard to say. I’m old enough to appreciate it for what it is, but I know myself. If I don’t keep myself busy, I’ll get restless.

[shangba]

That way lies danger.

[emperorssmile]

Then I’ll just have to keep myself busy.

A-Liang will help.

[shangba]

I fear your boredom.

[emperorssmile]

Yeah, I know. I can get prickly sometimes.
