[shenhe isn't very good at nuance, so - this is probably the smart option. she pauses when nahri gives her the little yeah, and frowns. but. she doesn't argue further. instead, she holds nahri's hand a little more tightly, and tugs her off further into the park.]
... You should tell me when I say something wrong. [she says, voice flat as ever.]
You didn't. [ she responds quickly, wanting to reassure. except that without explanation, does it really do anything?
she follows shenhe along on their path, taking a moment to look at the passing greenery. it helps her ease off her feelings. because she certainly has a lot of them all the time. she's never been one to confide much in others, but she also never really had anyone to confide in before. ]
There's just a lot that happened, and I don't know where to start. Or end.
[one person who has a lot of emotions, and one person who doesn't, what a combination.]
I will listen to whatever you want to tell me. [she says, after a moment. it's not a push to keep going if she doesn't want to, just an offer.] Or we can just walk.
they can walk! they do walk. the squirrels probably harass them a little, though - at least one climbs up shenhe's leg, though she doesn't seem to care very much. it stares at nahri.]
Does it bother you? [i want you to know that she threatens to murder birds if they wake up the main character in genshin so like, that should give you an idea of where this is going]

Shenhe, there's one of those bushy rats on your leg.
[ she is so on edge SHE HATES THESE THINGS ]
no subject
Hm? Oh. [she looks down at the squirrel.] Yes. It's probably hungry.
[... uhhhhh well she doesn't have any food but she's made such a bad habit of feeding them all morning that they see her and just Expect It]
no subject
What do you mean it's hungry? It's on your leg!
[ she can't say she's surprised by the lack of reaction but like. girl. please. ]

Don't set it on fire! Just-- Just scoop it off your leg!
no subject
she leans down to scoop the squirrel off of her, and then holds it out away from her as it squeaks angrily. she kind of just. looks at it.]
no subject
Put it down!
no subject
drops it
the squirrel makes the angriest chittering sound in the world and darts up a tree, glaring at both of them. shenhe just glares back.]
no subject
