Wei Wuxian just smiles, standing with his hands at his sides.
"I'd give better ones if I found value in lying. The truth is lamentably just that ridiculous."
He spreads his hands as he lifts them, palms turned upward, empty.
"Giving each other the chance to listen and speak in turn helps, in my experience. Is it customary for your people to lay clear terms of cost and motivation at the start of any negotiation? For mine, it's customary to start with an introduction."
He repeats the bow. "Wei Wuxian, of the Voidtrecker Express. We're tasked with assisting worlds in distress. We've been dropped here for the next seven days or so. What questions you have are ones we'll attempt to answer, should you wish to ask them."
His hands fall back to his sides. It's hard, he knows it, when you feel backed into a corner, you feel your world's been attacked and it has, and you're living under the strain of it all. All he can say he has in this situation is... a great deal of empathy.
