Wu Xie: I love hearing Wu Erbai shouting at someone else. It makes such a nice change.

[fixaidea]

Finding out that his nephew was in a relationship with Zhang Qiling was a rough time for Wu Erbai.

See on one hand, this equation does not add up to an heir, so it should be discouraged... but on the other hand, how do you even phrase this concern in a way that can't be taken as you thinking that the Zhang patriarch is not good enough for you? Because THAT would be the level of fighting words even Fo Ye's faction might set their differences with the main branch aside just to get offended over it.

He keeps worrying over the matter until he gets a rather gruff call from his older brother. See, HE already told Wu Xie that it was all fine and it's very nice of Erbai to be so concerned about the legacy of the family, but it would be even nicer if he remembered exactly whose son they are talking about here. If Erbai wants a kid to boss about, no one's stopping him from making one. Or adopting. There's a thought.*

*Wu Yiqiong isn't being exactly fair here and he knows it. When Wu Xie told his parents both him and his parents assumed the other party will inform Ershu, and then neither did, so he was out of the loop for a long while. ...But he can't help feeling a bit smug over being told first for once.

Also, while on the phone Wu Yiqiong plays it off like the whole coming out thing went like a breeze, in reality things came very close to going ballistic. Not even over Wu Xie being gay - that he suspected and took with resigned acceptance - but when he realised that this Xiaoge character was the same man his son got so bent out of shape and heartbroken over all those years ago. That was when Wu Xie had to sit his parents down and explain the whole Bronze Gate thing in enough detail to make them understand Xiaoge's reasons, where he went, what it cost him and why Papa Wu definitely shouldn't sick his dogs on him please and thank you.

location: cobblestone cafe

Emre had reached out to Nolan, approaching him at the local cafe where he worked and asked him if he might want to meet about a more serious matter. Emre kept it vague, only saying that it was about Nolan's literally long-lost friend and that he wanted to help. He had the last week to look over the case files that were sent up to him from the Nashville office and it was time to meet with Nolan, "So," Emre stated, sitting down with his coffee, "I looked over all these files," they were sitting in front of him, "Is there a chance you'd be willing to recount what happened on that day, from your memories?"

Beyza grinned as she watched Devrim and Seyda with the other kids looking around for the wooden elf to win the prize. She had always loved seeing her and Emre's kids play together like this and now that they were under one roof, she was glad they were still getting along so well. Though, she was sure as they got older, they would end up fighting like siblings. She hoped. "Hopefully they don't decide to use their winning tickets on the aquarium." Beyza smiled at Emre. "Lord knows I can get us all in free there."

My take watching Reunion the sound of providence:

This guy

Wants to keep this guy safe:

But his approach is to keep this guy, whose an absolute tank away from him

And so these two just keep ending up in situations

Wu Meifen/ Wu-nainai - Grandmother and Great-grandmother. Very proud. Handles the legal site of the Wu family. Raises only the best dogs. Certified badass (as in she has a slip of paper framed proclaiming that she can kick anyones ass signed by Foye. **Foye!**.) Ready to kick Granny Hous (she was still alive in DMBJ2) ass anytime. Li Cu is her favourite but she spoils any of the children rotten. Has found a succesor in Yang Hao. Is only going to kick the bucket after Granny Huo. Has a spoiling competition going on with Zhang Rishan. Ready to slap her dumb Sons and her dumb Grandson. Retired feral.

Zhang Rishan - *Grandfather*. Adores Wu Xie and the children. Ready and willing to strangle Xiaoge (for whatever reason). Spoils the children rotten. Ready to throw down for any of those kids. Had a long conversation with LCs teacher once. The man might have pissed his pants. Insists on each of the children getting an education. Lets Yang Hao intern in the Hotels kitchen whenever he wants. Will deny liking Wu-nainais egg tarts to the day he dies. Yang Hao is his favourite.

Shades - The cool uncle, teacher to Su Wan. Su Wan is his favourite. Ready to murder for that child. Hands out candy to Su Wan and Li Cu anytime though. Not immune to the puppy eyes. Is able to calm a fight between Liu Sang and Pangzi. Is able to start an arguement between Bai Haotian and Li Cu. Tought Yang Hao to make drug candies.

Er-shu - the strict uncle/granduncle. Willing to kill for the kids. Ready to kill the kids. Can't keep up with them. Spoils them secretly. What *Grandfather* and Grandmother gift in monetary form or with smth else he gifts in experience and training. Li Jiale is his favourite. (Li Jiale is after LC the nicest one.

Papa Wu & Mama Wu - Currently living in Kairo. Send letters and call a lot. Send a lot of gifts and puzzles. Take care of the Tiger Trio when they are staying in Kairo for University. Are highkey worried for everyone. Bai Haotian has been their favourite so far. Once the trio touches down in Kairo it is Yang Hao (somehow he has become the voice of reason).

"Who's that?" asked Wu Erbai. The fat man flashed a smile at Wu Xie, then stared murder at Wu Erbai.

"My boyfriend Pangzi," Wu Xie replied brightly.

Wu Erbai frowned. "I thought that..." Murderous twink? "...slim fellow was your boyfriend."

"Xiaoge is too," agreed Wu Xie. Wu Erbai's frown deepened into a scowl. "Is there a problem, Er-shu?" Wu Xie and Pangzi shared a look and turned back at Wu Erbai, both staring murder at him.

"No," Wu Erbai sighed. Even if they didn't kill him, that twink would. "As long as you...three...are happy."

So much for grand-nephews.

Wu Xie: But what about Xiaoge? He was my SOULMATE!

Wu Erbai: You said that about a ball of yarn once!

Wu Xie: I was four!

Imagine Ershu sweating over the draft of a dating ad, trying to make his horrible gremlin nephew, his general lifestyle and the complimentary husbands that come as a package-deal with him at all palatable to the average, sane woman.

In hopes to get his daughter into new activities, Beyza had told him about Equestrian Estates and got her excited about taking horseback riding lessons. Seyda was with the owner of the facilities on one of their horses and Emre stood off to the side. He was watching his daughter when a shadow caught his attention, "Oh, sorry," he hadn't noticed someone walking through with their horse back to the barn. "That's a beautiful horse, what, uh, breed? Horses have breeds right?" Emre chuckled with his lack of knowledge in the horse industry.

Now that the two of them were officially a couple, it felt like they were spending a lot more time together. Which definitely wasn't a bad thing. Beyza loved being with Emre and nights like tonight wasn't any different. She had cooked them dinner and the kids were now playing in Seyda's room while she was cleaning up. "Dev, don't make a big mess, okay? Remember you gotta help clean it up before we leave." She called to her son and heard some toys fall to the ground. "That doesn't sound like not making a mess." She commented to Emre with a laugh and put some dishes in the sink.
