The girl wasn't wrong when she had said that she technically couldn't stop him from having open relationships with other people. Though he respected the fact that she didn't want him getting intimate with her best friend. If he had a best friend, he wouldn't want his official wife having a relationship with them either if that was even possible. He had no best friends though, only subordinates and acquaintances. The burden of a royalty is that even friends will abandon you as a single thing you do or your family does, can effect the relationship.<br/><br/>He had a best friend once, they weren't Dathian, they were a member of an androgynous species known as the Tuarir who asexually reproduced through the exchange of cut hair mixed with water rather than sexually producing children. While they had all the sexual reproductive organs of a humanoid, they weren't in a sense sexually fertile. His best friend's name was Xiaotoa, the species had no surnames in their culture. Xiaotoa was essentially his only playmate until he was ten years old, that was when the Great Tuarir Empire waged war against Xinyi's Fu Dynasty. As a result all Tuarir within the Fu Empire were forced to fight their nation of their heritage and Xiaotoa was imprisoned due to their ties to the Fuarir Ruling Clans. Xiaotoa never forgave Xinyi for his inaction to save him, and died in prison due to nutritional neglect by the prison staff.<br/><br/>When she asked if that was why her father was unable to clone her, he raised a brow slightly. So her father was actually trying to clone her? He was even replacing people with clones? While that was a known tactic to keep control of one's country, it was also one that raised multiple flags. Clones can be genetically or subconsciously programmed with ideas and urges. His head tilted to the side though as she started asking about dormant abilities.<span style="color: #FFFF80">"Dathian Hybrids are unable to change their shape, but their DNA is naturally encrypted and protected by enzymes. If he tries to split or stretch the genetic material, it'd literally dissolve due to the amount of acidity."</span>He stated, giving a bit more information on the subject of cloning a Dathian Hybrid.<br/><br/>When asked to join her in a bath, Xinyi would grin slightly and tilt his head.<span style="color: #FFFF80">"Sure,"</span>he said with a relaxed tone as he'd begin to take off his attire and place it all neatly on the bed beside the clothes she had been wearing before. Gently he would grasp hold of her shoulder, having his arm wrapped around her. He'd lead her towards what looked like an indent in the wall before it was revealed to be a sliding pocket door. Opening on its own, it would reveal a large bathroom which had a pool for a bathtub. The water was steaming hot, so it was more like a personal hotspring. There were shower heads and even urinals and regular toilet stalls. It looked a little like a high level bathhouse.
