It's been so long that he didn't really remember what hearing him laugh sounded like-- he tries to think if he has a memory of it at all. There's absolutely no chance he's going to scold the man for it, not when he wants to hear him laugh again sometime--
Ah. He really does want that, doesn't he? He didn't even know it until just now. Something twists, just slightly, in his chest at the realization.
But he reaches up, insisting silently on being helped to his feet.]
Not easily at all! We'll be out here for hours, or I'll be going back with wet robes-- ah, I don't have spare ones prepared either...
[This could probably be solved with the clever application of a talisman or two to dry them faster once hung. Huaisang elects not to point this out, instead declaring:]
You'll just have to let me borrow some of yours, mine are going to smell of lake water even if they do dry.
