Luckily, he's easy to convince. It's not that he has a great love for his blazing fire baths; it's just how he has always done it... and water baths have never been appealing, with his dislike of water in general.

But this sounds fun. Using soap for the first time, while splashing around in a pool that reminds him of Hell, is more like play than anything else. So, carrying the soap like he's got a new toy, he scampers back to the scalding pool.

He'll move to a pool more suited to someone who doesn't want to boil to death if it comes time for Huaisang to play with his hair, but he'll hang out in his favorite pool until then.

He does just as he'd seen humans do in the past, lathering up and methodically washing off, looking simply delighted as he does so.
