[although it's been more than a few months now since his abrupt appearance in gotham city, sizhui's found it somewhat hard to adapt to his new lifestyle, mostly because he feels like he's being held captive inside this ostentatious mansion. sure, he has free roam throughout it and yes, he has his own room, but at what point is he allowed out by himself without cover and someone chaperoning him the entire time? he knows everything out there is brand new, given his time displacement from the far past of ancient china, yet he also believes in his ability to have adapted even a little during those same aforementioned months, to have gathered enough information for ‘blending in,’ as it were, that he's allowed outside more than a handful of times in the week.

however, he can't exactly complain much either, what with everything being provided to him; that earlier mentioned room, food, clothes, what entertainment can be achieved while staying inside. it's still not enough to dissuade him from lingering near the windows, watching people walk by, or wandering the manor in search of company in the form of those who come by the wayne estate every now and then.

jason is who has arrived today, rather inconspicuously, instantly drawing sizhui's attention away from his book once he realizes so he can chat up the other male instead, bright and exuberant at the idea of hearing about someone else's life on the outside. (such an overdramatic way of putting it, really, despite sizhui thinking otherwise!) the first time they'd talked, he's well-aware he might've not made the best impression, but with time to adapt, adjust and at least halfway find his place, it's become easier to converse.]

Any particular reason you've come today? I do believe it's only Alfred and myself, in case you were looking for Mister Wayne...

[maybe it's silly, having the slightest hope jason's there to see him, that doesn't curb his enthusiasm any, nor does it keep him from being somewhat nosy when it comes to jason's initial reason for visiting.]
