Shen Qingqiu grabs another root beer and offers it to Galahad. "It's, like, a genre thing," he says, to Magnus. "I don't mind. None of them are here, and I like a lot of them a lot anyway." Well, he likes two of them a lot, Liu Mingyan and Ning Yingying, and he has a secret soft spot for Sha Hualing still even though she's so annoying in person. "Plus, um, Sagramore says Binghe told him he's gay now, so."
He blows out a breath. "Anyway, none of that is the point, or why I told you any of it. It's--this body. Like I said, it wasn't mine, and Luo Binghe--he hated the guy who was in here before me. Hell, I hated the guy who was in here before me. And when I first got in here, I had to dress like him, and then I kept dressing like him just out of habit, but I don't--" he bites his lip. "He hasn't minded so far, I guess. But I don't want to show up to our date looking like someone who hurt him so badly. I want to look more like me, who I used to be, but. He's never seen me like that."
