[Shen Yuan sends him a photo of a small teahouse near the lamp post in Willful Machine, clearly set up to service the people who work in the district but at least it's clean and the prices are reasonable, by local standards.
Shen Yuan also hesitates for a long moment before sending a photo of himself, suddenly aware of how shabby he must look to cultivator eyes. He pawned his guan the first week he was here, and while his hair still hangs down to his rear unbound he's been keeping it in only a simple braid, like a little kid. The hair around his face is still short and rather uneven from the time his former housemate tried to set his head on fire, and his green robes have been growing increasingly worn and shabby from hard use. He'd look completely ridiculous if he tried to play the lofty peak lord like this.
...So he's not even going to try. Better to be friendly and sincere and see how things go, right? At least that way if things go badly, it won't be his fault.]
Meet me here, in Willful Machine. I'll stay near the lamp post, so hopefully you won't have to look too long.
