Story Description: For Banyue, "Secrets of Ancient Artifact Restoration" is not a documentary, but a how-to guide...

Banyue: Good afternoon. Has the videotape I asked about last time arrived?

I found this...

Banyue: My thanks... and, might I trouble you again for the use of your playback machine? My home doesn't have one.

Of course, no problem!

(ProtagonistProtagonistWise / Belle): (‍Of course. We've got a VCR in the workshop. I haven't seen it either, so we could watch it together.Of course. We've got a VCR in the workshop.

Banyue: Then I suppose I shall impose.

You finish watching "Secrets of Ancient Artifact Restoration" with Banyue. He pays extra close attention, even taking notes.

Banyue: Restoring the old to appear as it once was... This is worth studying.

You're watching really closely.

(ProtagonistProtagonistWise / Belle): You're watching so intently... (‍You're even taking notes. That kind of dedication... makes me feel like an underachiever.You're even taking notes.

Banyue: Taking notes helps to ensure a higher success rate during the restoration work.

Banyue: Although I can access my memory module, writing it down myself helps build the reflexes needed during hands-on repairs.

Banyue: Strictly speaking... it's not an artifact.

Then what is it?

(ProtagonistProtagonistWise / Belle): So when you say restoration, you mean...

Banyue: A few days ago, I bumped into a sharp edge during training.

Banyue: My knee joint suffered some damage, so it requires repair.

Banyue: The restoration manual Yixuan Shifu lent me only has written descriptions, which aren't very intuitive.

Banyue: In order to complete the restoration in one go, I thought I could borrow some video references from you.

Wow, so you're repairing yourself...

Banyue: Hmm... is this method somehow improper? Or too old-fashioned?

Banyue: Proxy, are you alright?

No, that's not it!

Banyue: (‍Oh, in—interesting? Um.Oh, in—interesting? Um.Text for Wise / C—Cute? Ahem.C—Cute? Ahem.Text for Belle‍) Such a word... applies to me?

Banyue: I—I've troubled you enough today... I shall take my leave.

Banyue leaves looking a little flustered, walking out the door with his arms and legs moving on the same side.

(Banyue can now promote the video store.)
