[ he ends up grinning back, reaching for the ends of his own long, long hair and fiddling with them. ]
Well, I'd be a hypocrite if I said anything about it. Appreciating beauty in a beautiful situation is always a good thing. [ fufu. this is the exact kind of aesthetic bullshit he's into actually. ]
[ can't relate! his is all just ink black and straight as a pin, so. gu yun comes around the chairs and over to look, curiously checking them out. ]
Have you ever tried - ah, there's this little tagalong that lives in the Marquis Manor who wears his hair like this. [ he reaches up and puts either hand on the side of his own head, curling them together into fists. space buns. ] He's got quite the penchant for dressing up.
It'd be interesting on you, I think! Two colors and all. [ douman.... in space buns ]
Nonsense! Cao Niangzi would surely be swooning at the idea. He has all sorts of hair accessories and things - at New Years, when he first came up to me, I thought he was a little maiden Chang Geng had invited over to play, he was so impeccably dressed.
[ well, he thinks it would be neat! what does he know. he comes over to plop down in front of them, feeling particularly friendly, and also checking out those neat fern fronds. ]
I think you'd rather like him, actually. He uses those skills of his for all sorts of clever little things - he can imitate others' voices and accents, slip into disguises, and picks up on language quicker than anyone I've ever met. [ a beat. ] That, and I've never met a person in my life who admires beautiful things more. Or, well. Beautiful men, I suppose.
[ with a laugh. ] I think if he saw you in front of this window like that, he might have swooned.
It's not flattery. Do I seem much of a flatterer? [ he's a truth teller, thank you! ]
Admittedly, it's a bit strange to me, to see people here with such short hair. There's hardly anyone in my realm that wears theirs that way - it's something of an honor to wear it longer. So, two types or not, yours is a bit more familiar!
Oh, is that so? Admittedly, I'm used to long hair, myself! So I certainly feel the same way...it feels odd to even imagine myself with shorter hair, hm!

Do you do anything fancy with yours, Douman?

[They lower the brush to their own lap.]
I put it up sometimes...but nothing quite fancy, no. It's hard, especially since I have two types of hair...
[Wavy and curly...]

[Douman has to hide a laugh behind their hand.]
It sort of looks...ridiculous, honestly! And I think it would be hard to do with the black side...
[The little fern fronds and everything.]

Gu Yun, please. This humble priest doesn't need such flattery.
