[ he got compared to the moon!! how is that a different vibe? does he need to wax poetic on how adorable he is? ]

Oh? So you have more?

[finals]

( ? have you seen him. absolutely. )

Maybe so. Nothing is stopping me from taking new ones.

[eepy]

[ he's the one looking embarrassed when he calls him pretty and flirts with him, pls make up your mind high elder ]

How generous, though I won't deny that I would just be as partial to take them myself.

[finals]

( doesn't mean he doesn't wanna be spoiled?!?!? )

... I would not stop you, if you so desire to take them yourself.
Isn't the appeal of these to tease with something you cannot have just yet?

[eepy]

[ he's being thoroughly spoiled? is this not spoiling? ]

It is, but I've always been inclined to do the teasing than be the one being teased.
Do you think Yingxing will appreciate a photo capture by me?

[finals]

( THIS IS TEASING? they're extremely different, thank you

also.. hmm... maybe if he works hard enough he could try to tease jy into a blushing mess too... but also...? much to think about )

... If he does not, he might just start a competition to see who takes the best pictures of me.

( which? he doesn't hate. but you know. )

Must you still tease him so?

[eepy]

[ same difference

and df can try? jy will like to see him attempt to make him blush. it's going to be worth the effort ok :pom-pom-good-job: ]

Am I not permitted?
He bullies me when a chance is given to him.

[finals]

( ..... is it...... is it really. or is he just going to embarrass himself further. )

You've past grown out of your childhood years. You can very easily fight back if Yingxing is picking on you.
Unless you're still a child at heart? Shall I start calling you Yuanyuan again?

[eepy]

[ listen, that's part and parcel of it. he can't get away—but he may just succeed. high risk, high rewards.

brb deflecting that nickname— ]

So my Master has told me, though I was also taught how to fight back without needing to fight.

@finals

[eepy]

Haha, are you saying you're not?

youre so mean to my dragonfishes

[finals]

Do I have a reason to be?

( gay chicken number 3849063467 )

they're still ugly

[eepy]

There are very few who have captured my heart, after all, and one of them is Mimi.

mimi is ugly!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[finals]

( he's not!!!!!! going to fall for that bait!!!! stop!!!??? )

Is that so. And who are the other ones?

wow calling mimi ugly?????????

[eepy]

[ jealous high elder ... ]

There's Master Jingliu, of course, and Baiheng.

:( ... no..............

[finals]

( he's not jealous. at all. )

Who else?

mimi's the cutest, how dare

[eepy]

Who else, I wonder?

she is cute i'm sorry mimi.... but so are my fishes...

[finals]

I wasn't aware you gave yourself to so many people. Is this a hobby of yours?

idk i'm still in disagreement with the fishes, hm

[eepy]

Haha, perhaps I'm simply easy to love and be loved.

[ ANYWAY MOVING ON FROM THIS TOPIC ]

What time shall I come fetch Mimi?

drags you here

[eepy]

Mimi as a cub was ripping down the banners in the Seat.

[ as docile, huh ... ]

Very well.
I'm curious though, High Elder. If you would indulge me.

ty for doing the hard work...

[finals]

Is that not docile? ( like.................. genuine question )

Do tell. What's on your mind?

it's called laziness

[eepy]

[ ... what is docile in your dictionary, df ]

Docile means manageable, doesn't it?

It's a creature not once seen for a very long time. Do we know why it's suddenly manifested now?

ty for being lazy...

[finals]

( this 👇 )

Doesn't docile mean she does not maul innocent civilians? ( again.... genuine question )

All I have heard are the Preceptors theorizing about it. Some are of the belief my predecessors did not possess the affinity to cloudhymn as I do, and therefore were unable of awakening the suanni. ( which ofc made them fight each other on it but yk how they are ) A few think it could have to do with the Arbor, and were adamant on consulting the Divination Commission on its future.
I'm afraid I lack a proper answer to give you at the moment.

yw, i strive to be as lazy as i can

[eepy]

High Elder, if your pet mauls the curtains simply because they're swaying in the wind, you can be certain she'll also maul innocent civilians who are simply walking past.

Wouldn't consulting the Divination Commission contradict the secrecy behind her existence?

[ sir

if he had hesitated, he would've been disappointed.

it's a part of his calculation, after all, blade's ferocity and singlemindedness. where he would come from, which direction his weapon would appear didn't matter; it's all about the fact that he would simply come like a storm on a path of destruction. that, and this is the luofu, his home, his playground. his ship. there's nothing, no one who could make him fall to his knees on his own territory.

starfall reverie appears in a burst of light, ready to parry its sibling as it threatens to tear him into two. sparks fly and jing yuan's eyes flash, fingers tightening their grip around his guandao's shaft and maneuvering the weapon to repel blade to the side. a part of him is tempted to summon lightning-lord, but that level of destruction ... well.

he doesn't wish to be lectured by yukong for disrupting work. his power is enough—if not to defeat blade, then to fend him off until he's satisfied.

he doesn't wait for the next strike to come, swinging the guandao as lightning gathers along its edge. it's only polite to return the favor, right? from one friend to another. ]

[doesntneedhealing]

[NOT AS BAD AS ME LITERALLY FORGETTING ABOUT THIS THREAD BECAUSE OBJECT PERMANENCE IS A THING ONLY REAL ADULTS HAVE AAAAAAAA-]

[ yes.

in another life- another time- he would have recognized this fight for the disadvantage it was, between the glaive's longer reach and momentum. that the weight of jing yuan's blow was not something to be weathered carelessly, a fact only furthered by the heft of a weapon once forged by hands now too numb to remember the feeling of hammer and heat.

seeing it again stirs nothing but a faint recognition somewhere in the back of blade's mind as he flows with the repel, arm stinging with vibrations even in the deflect.

(and, somehow, that seems... sad.)

the thought is tossed aside, as unwanted and unneeded as a leaf twisting haplessly in the wind. he knows without seeing that jing yuan has flowed seamlessly from a block into a follow up attack. it is in the way he steps, the way his body shifts in aged grace that was so lacking those many years ago. movement refined by a grown man's precision and experience. he braces himself in the very disadvantage he knew was to come, having stepped into the other's ideal range, and catches the glimpse of lightning too late.

there is no avoiding that little bit of trickery- Jing Yuan-! as it slams into the edge of shard sword and sends an unpleasant jolt of pins and needles up his hand- numbing already leaden fingers as his stance is pushed back a step. it is unlike him to merely take a blow so head on- such a thing would have meant defeat back against his "master" after all, so that he did so now is merely testament to carelessness. that he thought he might take advantage of his curse to end this quickly.

how foolish of him. things are never so simple with this man.

it is an impasse that only weakens him, as he holds his ground and glares into those golden eyes, lightning shivering up his skin and alighting along old wounds- sparking nerves of pain. so it is against reason that he steps into the lock, pressing weight into the hold even though his is a strength that cannot match against the general's as they are, closing that already tenuous gap even just a little bit further.

if it is a matter of trickery, jing yuan is not the only one with long sleeves. pressured, the guandao's weight with the added weight of the shard sword must strain one's stance.]
