Mmm. It's confusing, isn't it? I'm a person who shouldn't exist. I'm a little hole in reality. That's what my name means, actually. I'm a "hole well". Fitting, isn't it?
[A man defined by the fact that he technically is a nonexistence. A hole is defined by the fact it must be empty.]
I think it must be a mistake. Or merely I'm like a ghost. I exist only within this space. Like you, when I leave, I just won't be me anymore.
Then by that logic, the smartest thing to do is to make the most of this. Whatever that might mean.
[ he's not sure what the most of it means to anaido, really, and yin yu is not the type to ask unnecessary questions. ] Whether it's a mistake, or you are a ghost, or otherwise, you're still here. It may change in an hour. It may change tomorrow. But as it stands, you don't have any way of knowing when that change will come.
[ sometimes that's how yin yu gets through the day. if he is here, then he can do something for chengzhu. if he exists, then he can work hard. ]
wen ning. well. that wound's even more open than usual recently, considering what he learned this week. this was all very personal, and he's starting to feel uncomfortable again.]

I'll do my best, though. [He shakes his head.] I...can't let Wen Ning down, after all.

I'm sorry. I'm not used to any of this.
