However, Yan Qing is not so foolish that he'd let her get away with just that. He tugs on her hand and declares with newfound vigor,]
That's why I gotta know more about you. Tell me more about what you like. I wanna get you more gifts while I can! And, well... I just like learning about the people I like.
[ She watches quietly as he takes his hand in hers, guiding it over the invisible threshold of closeness to have her palm along his. His voice is soft, his touch is soft, his look is soft. Everything that he says in this moment is said with kindness he freely gives her.
What has she given him in return, though? Is this kindness even warranted? And now, he wants to know even more about her. Her and Mythra, most likely.
He wants to learn while he can, because he does not wish to forget it, because it could be that he will forget it, the more he uses that otherself of his, if not when he leaves this world. The time they have here is so precious. So, so.... very precious. ]
But I want to— [He... wants to groan. Instead, he bursts into laughter. They'll be here all day if they keep this up. That's right, he remembers — Pyra has as just as much time as he does. He doesn't know if he should tell her that much. If he could make her see she has the choice to live on, maybe some things should be kept a secret.]
Ah, you're so cute.
[That's when it happens.
His sharp features soften, his hair changes color, and his large rough hands turn smaller and softer.]
[ You know, she didn't know how this Doppleganger power of his would work, although she had a few guesses. Yet to see him actually transform in person is another thing entirely.
She balks. ] What do you-- [ What does he mean, he's going to learn all about her as becoming her! Then again, this is learning about him in a way, what with him revealing this ability.... ]
Doing this? Hehhh, I already told you about it, didn't I? You made me cry about it, too... You big meanie.
[That's not how it went down, but he's having fun saying things with Pyra's voice. Gosh, he has to twirl around and look at himself. Admiring his own body with his hands is way too fun. He goes over his chest, his hips, his behind — Pyra's really nice to the touch everywhere, isn't she? This is so terrible. Kick him.]
Haha! It's the Doppelganger's power. I can turn into anyone I've seen once. Pretty cool, huh? It's a secret, though.

N...No fair. I want to learn more about you.

Now I'm cute, too!
[Avoiding the topic, let's go.
Yan Qing, now with Pyra's body, presses himself against the real Pyra with a newfound enthusiasm and excitement.]
You don't mind if I spend a day with you in your shoes, right? Let's kill two birds with one stone. I can't wait to learn all about you, Pyra!
