[ It's not totally unusual for Peony to disappear for a couple of days with no contact. These things just happen when you get absorbed in... whatever it is she does on her own time.
It's a bit late today when she knocks on Yingxing's door though, small bag in hand and a coat over her shoulders. ]
[Yingxing, while normally self-sufficient (like a succulent), sometimes had a streak of clinginess so intense even he was surprised by the strength of it (like strangling ivy).
He'd been well on his way to one of these. He knew Peony had some sort of avoidant attachment style (he'd read on it, trying to figure out what he might be possibly doing wrong, because Yingxing was a guy who fixed things), and he knew he had to have patience, but he couldn't help having to have his phone on himself more than usual.
So. The door opens after a thud, to Yingxing with his glasses askew.]
Oh. Hi. [He stares for a moment, then opens the door.] Come in.
[Following her like a duckling to wherever she's going in his own apartment!!! There's the sound of paws hitting tile, and Sesame turns the corner into the living room, going straight for Peony's ankles.]
A little less fucked now that you're here. Uh. Evening and all.

[ She regards him with mild amusement, before stepping in around him, politely removing her shoes in the entryway and balancing the bag in one arm.
Once that's done though she turns, reaching up to delicately straighten his glasses. ]
I brought some cakes and tea to share. How was your day?

[ She puts her bag on the table and her coat over a chair, and kneels down to rub Sesame's cheek. ]
You look terribly round today, Sesame.
