[Unfortunately for Li-Na, Leon's certain that he's probably heard all that at some point. He could recall trying to block him out whenever he went on a tagent about his sister and everytime he did, Leon felt so incredibly sorry for her.
He's dealt with his fair share of doting so he feels like he could understand her pain. Xiaolang's sisters tend to embarrass him everytime they were at family get togethers.]
I apologize.
If it helps, I can certaintly tell that your brother cares for you a lot and that he's very proud of you.
[Now everything is finally coming together. It all makes sense now. Come to think of it, he was certain that another reason that they hired her brother was because he had connections to the Li family.]
Xiaolang is my cousin as well and the one that I'm living with.
What a coincidence. So you're related through his father? His mother and my mother are sisters, so I guess that wouldn't make us related. But it's rather nice to meet someone with a common relative.
[ I read that thread and the idea of Li-Na trolling Xiaolang by not telling him that she's met Leon is great, btw. Leon's going to get a good laugh out of it. ]
Yeah, that would be me. Unfortunately stuck with this application as well. But I suppose at least I can monitor him on here.
[ Leon no ]
It is. I never would have guessed to find someone else related to my cousin through this application. It's a bit unfortunate to find out this way, but it can't be helped.
[by the end of those ten minutes, Li-Na is starting to worrying he was so shocked he hurt himself somehow, so she's a little relieved when he does reply back]
Do not feel bad. None of us noticed. I am just glad they are back to normal.
[ Just a tad. If they sang he wouldn't have touched them either and ran away as fast as he could. ]
Anyways. Thanks for all of the information that you've given me. It's also nice meeting another relative of Xiaolang's. I'm sure we'll run into each other again.

Li-Na wishes she could find a hole to crawl into.]
Oh. Did he? I hope he did not exaggerate too much.
[He might have. Just a little. Saying things like his little sister is a ballet prodigy and will surely become a prima ballerina before she's 25.
No brother. That's not how it works.]

no subject
[Of course, she hasn't be able to contact her brother is well over a week now, so he's just a touchy subject in general right now.]
no subject
Not to the extent of your brother, but I do have some cousins that like to embarrass me at get togethers. So, I can imagine.
no subject
Cousins? Plural. How many?
[shift the topic away from her, shift it over to him...]
no subject
I have five cousins, all of them being siblings. My youngest cousin is actually living with me here.
He's also a speaker of Canontese. Maybe I could introduce you to each other.
no subject
I would like that. Though, it is a funny coincidence. A cousin of mine is in Recolle too.
no subject
That's certainly a coincidence. What's his name?
[More people he could speak Cantonese to is always welcome!]
no subject
[His cousin's family is the same size as Xiaolang's. How funny.]
Li Xiaolang. Well, technically it is our parents who were cousins. My mother was cousins to his father.
no subject
Xiaolang is my cousin as well and the one that I'm living with.
What a coincidence.
So you're related through his father? His mother and my mother are sisters, so I guess that wouldn't make us related.
But it's rather nice to meet someone with a common relative.
no subject
Oh. So you are Xiaolang's guardian. He mentioned his guardian had gotten the app. So he meant you.
This is a funny coincidence.
no subject
Yeah, that would be me. Unfortunately stuck with this application as well. But I suppose at least I can monitor him on here.
[ Leon no ]
It is. I never would have guessed to find someone else related to my cousin through this application. It's a bit unfortunate to find out this way, but it can't be helped.
no subject
[I had no idea what a troll Li-Na is until Xiaolang came along. Sorry Xiaolang.]
Ahhh so you're the protective older brother type.
[shhhh she's quietly keeping tabs on Xiaolang too, SHE JUST DOESN'T COME RIGHT OUT AND SAY IT LOL]
Everything about this app is a bit unfortunate. Though occasionally there are pleasant surprises.
no subject
It's not like that! I'm simply acting as his guardian. I don't want to get yelled at if he witnesses something bad on this shady network.
[ NO LI-NA IS TOTALLY RIGHT. He really is the older brother type but he just wants to be a huge freaken tsundere about it. ]
True. Meeting you and learning that we share a common relative through Xiaolang is a nice surprise. Being able to speak in Cantonese is always nice.
no subject
[He might be...]
You are doomed.
[Yep, she's trolling.]
Actually, I think it is the weird things that happen in this city that will cause the most worry.
no subject
What the hell? Don't say ominous things like that!!
Oh yeah, I heard of some of the odd things from Xiaolang. I also recall horses being gone along with the color blue at one point.
no subject
do you remember the dancing fruit?
[because if she has to, so does everyone else]
no subject
Oh god.
Now I do. I also feel like a moron for not finding it strange at the time.
no subject
Do not feel bad. None of us noticed. I am just glad they are back to normal.
no subject
Along with never eating fruit again.
no subject
I avoided eating them for a while. Though I did pick some apples to make dumplings.
no subject
[ He's really concerned about that. ]
no subject
[because otherwise, she probably wouldn't have touched them at all]
no subject
[ Just a tad. If they sang he wouldn't have touched them either and ran away as fast as he could. ]
Anyways. Thanks for all of the information that you've given me. It's also nice meeting another relative of Xiaolang's. I'm sure we'll run into each other again.
