[he wasn't expecting company?? there's a muffled yelp on his side of the door, then shuffling, probably the sound of him bumping into multiple pieces of furniture, before he gives in and just calls out instead.]
It's... it isn't locked, or it shouldn't be-- young master Kenzaki, is that you? Young master Jin-?

"Dude"...?
Wait, no, nevermind that-! Of course I'm no good, I can't see a thing, and the young master sharing this room has been missing since yesterday...
[he gets the bed now, he supposes, and he can see a little bit, so this is partially exaggeration... it really is concerning that his sight's like this, though.]
Please, miss, er- Squash, was it? Please tell me you know what's happening-

I mean, technically you're not wrong—but it's Pumpkin, not Squash!
[ a slight bristle of her ears and tail aside, she tilts her head at his confusion. ]
But I hardly ever know what's happening, man. And I can't really help with either of your problems, sooo...

You don't know either...?
[he visibly droops at that, idly fanning himself.]
This really is troublesome, though... I have no idea what to do about any of it, miss Pumpkin, I honestly don't!

I did! I slept the whole morning yesterday, and today too!
[don't admit to that so readily, huaisang, god.]
[don't admit to that so readily, huaisang, god.]
Do you think so-? I've never heard of sleeping too much making one go blind, but I suppose anything's possible...
[what an alarming thought, though, he loves sleeping because it means he doesn't have to do anything.]
[what an alarming thought, though, he loves sleeping because it means he doesn't have to do anything.]
It really would be! I thought I was free of all of my responsibilities here, but if I can't even get as much sleep as I can now that I have the chance...
[he clutches his fan, looking like he just might cry.]
[he clutches his fan, looking like he just might cry.]
It's awful!
[one hand is still holding his fan, but the other is now clinging to whatever he can reach (probably her hand) if she doesn't swat it away quickly... this is the risk you take getting too close to an upset huaisang.]
There's no need to perform my duties as Sect Leader here... I'd hoped for the time to rest and paint, but young master Jin is here to watch over, and now I can't see to paint a thing and I might suffer a qi deviation of some sort if I oversleep-!! It's too much to bear!

[ nhs is an entire goddamn mood, which is why she feels 100% okay with him grasping at her hand, and why she's clutching at his too. ]
I have no idea about like half of what you just said, but I still totally get it! 'Cause like, if I couldn't see anymore... then how the heck would I be able to play An*mal Cr*ssing when it comes out next month?! Ugh!!

Play what...?
[that snaps him a bit out of working himself up, at least, and now that he's clinging to her he can kind of guess at where on this pumpkin blob her face is supposed to be so he can look at her. he can like, Vaguely see, kind of. what the fuck is a video game.]
I don't understand that either, but it'd be terrible if you were deprived of it.

Oh, miss... miss, ah, Pomegranate-?
[You know what? I don't have to lie in tags to mods, thankfully, he knows her name and he's just being this way.]
Please forgive me, I was very distracted when you introduced yourselves!

You as well. You may call me Sect Leader Nie, by the way, if Huaisang gives you any difficulty...
[He's noticed not everyone does great with that, also it's nice to still hear his title from people besides Jin Ling.]
I'd say it's nice to see you, if I could see much of you at all-- but I hope you don't mind if I didn't need much? It's just that I've already spoken with the others, and it seemed rude to leave you out...

It's important to properly address our guests, sir, but if you'd prefer I'll refer to your title then. [Also it's easier for me, Ty, because weh.]
Our guests are allowed to call for us for anything they may need, even if it's just the company. [She tilts her head though.] Is your eyesight troubling you as well?

It has been, all week!
[Just clutching his fan, looking miserable...]
And no one knows why! If I'm blinded forever, I really won't be able to do anything, I'll be more useless than I already am...
[He might cry? He looks like he might cry.]

[Oh my god.]
It's okay! It'll be alright! [Will it. Uh. She's just going to pacify him please don't cry that's so bad for guest relations.] I'm sure this won't last forever! We've been looking into it since we've heard the news. Nothing quite like this has happened in this house, but maybe it'll just...go away on its own?

[Unfortunately he is going to cry anyway, eyes welling up even as she tries to pacify him.]
But what if it doesn't! I can't even draw or practice calligraphy like this, much less paint even if I did have the supplies, and if I drop my fan it'll surely end up broken if I can't find it immediately-- I won't be able to see anything dangerous, either..
[That's last on the list of concerns, apparently.]
Wait, but if there's something dangerous then I don't want to see it!

Oh, right, old-timey people... um... think of it, like, a painting you can interact with! Like, there's different kinds but in most of them you're playing a character. Sometimes there's a story like you're reading a book and fighting battles, but sometimes you're just chilling and taking care of plants and stuff.
Does that make sense?
