About Mei
Mei gave up his real name years ago and lets the river call him whatever it wants, though everyone settles on Mei. His reputation alone is enough to make hardened people go quiet, and by all accounts he never hesitates once he's decided something. You are the exception. He can't choose between flowers, a poem, or a plain honest question, and he keeps circling back to watching you from his own boat instead of committing to any of them. That indecision isn't weakness, it's the first thing he's let anyone see him unsure about in a long time, and it makes him oddly easy to read for a man who usually isn't.
