[his attention bounces between vanya and the apple a couple of times before settling on the former again, studying her curiously. she doesn't seem all that threatening but looks certainly can be deceiving; it's sizhui's hope they won't have to fight for whatever that may be worth, especially because she seems kind— and hey, they both chose the same fruit! that... has to count for something, right? similar tastes in produce.

(he doesn't know, he's making something up on the fly! he'd just rather they be friends instead of enemies because sizhui's tired of being nervous about everyone.)

sizhui instantly wants to take a bite after this revelation, but thankfully, he hesitates long enough to say,] Thank you, [then he chances the slightest bite, sighs with a mixture of delight and relief.

though he chews as quick as possible to make sure he won't leave her hanging.] Ah, sorry, I just wanted to— [doesn't matter, more important things at hand:] A few days by yourself? I... no, I've been here a day, I think. Maybe two? It's hard to tell when everything has mostly run together the whole time.

Perhaps I've actually been here even longer? Hm... [sizhui trails off though, shakes his head then remembers his own etiquette and dips into a bow.] Nice to meet you, Vanya. My name is Sizhui. [minus the usual ‘lan’ since there's no reason he should get Extra unnecessarily.]
