Nightfall's Nest: Basement

He was weak, and I was strong- then-
So he let me lead him in-
I was weak, and he was strong then-
So I let him lead me- home.
'Twasn't far- the door was near-
'Twasn't dark- for he went- too-
'Twasn't loud, for he said nought-
That was all I cared to know.
Day knocked- and we must part-
Neither- was strongest- now-
He strove- and I strove- too-
We didn't do it- tho'!

Sanzo would like to make it clear that he is not, in fact, a flying carpet, and that anyone who starts singing A Whole New World is going to get it between the eyes.

Hakkai wishes it to be known that although he would never dream of replacing Jiipu, Sanzo is surprisingly pleasant to ride. Over short distances, to be sure.
