Omg omg omg "Here comes the tickle monster" with ler!Jing Yuan and lee!Yanqing! If that's okay ofc💕
Mischievious Prompts [Still Open]
“My lord, please, you should still be resting…”
“A little rest is good for the soul,” Jing Yuan smiled back, gazing out the window; “But too much, and one risks becoming lethargic.”
Yanqing sighed softly, his brow furrowing with worry as he gazed at the general’s back. While it was true that Jing Yuan was bouncing back well, a part of him – the part that was still attached to his mentor – still stressed over the depth of his wounds. Jing Yuan could be like a cat at the best of times, concealing facets of his health to avoid worrying those he cared for – and giving his enemies an advantage, all the same.
“... I understand,” The young warrior managed after a moment, knowing better than to push his luck too far; “In that case, if there’s anything I can do to help, please, let me be of service.”
“Hm.”
Jing Yuan turned to look down upon Yanqing, a soft smile upon his lips as he took in the boy’s worried state – and with a soft chuckle, he nodded, turning to face him fully as Yanqing perked to attention.
“There is one thing…”
Something about the general’s tone struck a memory for Yanqing, who promptly tensed – suddenly overwhelmingly glad that there were no other members of staff present in Jing Yuan’s office. As the older warrior stepped forward, he stepped back, swallowing as he realized where this was going.
“My lord…! You can’t be serious – your condition is –”
“Not severe enough to stop the tickle monster!”
In a split moment, Jing Yuan grinned and started closer, earning a yelp of alarm from Yanqing as he darted away in turn, quickly moving to stay out of reach – though he couldn’t stop the anticipatory, equally entertained smile from seizing his features, nor the squeal that escaped him when the general finally seized his target.
“Here it comes!”
“Eeyah! Nohohoo, my - my lohord…!”
Ultimately, a little laughter was a soothing balm for both of their souls – and for those who passed by the office’s doors, pausing to smile at the muffled sounds of play within. All would be well within the Divination Commission.

Hunter and Willow’s special connection.
here’s why i believe that the creators have purposefully tried to highlight a special connection between Hunter and Willow that is most likely meant to be romantic.
while it’s good to acknowledge the importance of platonic relationships being that of the same level of romantic ones, let’s review hunter’s personal relationships.
with luz, we are immediately shown a sibling-like love/spite relationship between the two. while luz is able to empathize with hunter, his early dynamic with the emperor’s coven rubs her the wrong way, and she’s not able to fully believe in his capability for good.
with amity, they are both able to recognize within one another on some level that they have both been victims of conditional love- love that only comes when you behave or perform as expected. through this, amity is able to empathize with hunter, however, amity is also highly suspicious of others, so she’s also unable to believe in his capability for good.
with gus, he’s able to see an entirely new side of hunter via flyer derby. despite this, he reasonably feels a bit betrayed when he finds out who hunter really is, and it takes him a bit upon their second meeting to warm up to him again. they’re besties, but gus still has to work to see the good that hunter’s capable of. if hunter hadn’t been kicked out of the emperor’s coven, he might not have been so quick to empathize.
finally, with willow, empathizing with hunter is relatively easy. she sees how her struggles mirror hunter’s, and he sees the same, yet they don’t doubt one another’s capability for a second. when she finds out who hunter is, and is essentially kidnapped by him, she reasonably feels betrayed, but she mainly blames herself. she opens up to him, and he sees her. through this recognition, he’s able to fix his mistake and she’s able to recognize who he is, too.
idk that just sounds kinda romantic to me, especially from a narrative perspective. the creators went out of their way to specifically highlight that hunter and willow’s dynamic with one another is different from their dynamic with everyone else in their group.

Macaque had MK watch Hunter while he went shopping at the demon market, just to be sure the little witch didn’t go home without at least enjoying some fresh air
Hunter pretends to be mad about this, but he’s been warming up to his adoptive crackhead siblings, MK especially.
He just pretends to hate them still, because, again, child soldier gonna child soldier and not show any sign of affection or fondness.
(Only Hunter and Macaque know about the whole successor thing at this point.)
(Wukong doesn’t even know MK is training with Macaque at all, let alone that his ex-whatever-the-fuck-those-two-had-going-on has taken in a weird looking mortal child that he’s just made his successor)
(These things don’t stay in the dark forever though. Nothing ever does :))
Oh, and @jessadamsdraws, I bring another found family offering >:3
