[ CHIN ] from beidou to ning.....

after  the  many  fortuitous  encounters  liyue  has  been  through  of  late  ,  níngguāng  finds  herself  at  peace  once  more  .  the  ebb  and  flow  of  the  goings  on  in  the  city  had  returned  to  normal  and  within  the  newly  built  jade  chamber  ,  a  familiar  face  lingered  around  her  desk  .  the  illustrious  captain  beidou  of  the  alcor  …  come  to  pay  their  debts  finally  ?  the  thought  alone  prompted  a  near  scoff  as  the  tianquan  approached  with  confidence  ,  the  strut  and  clicking  of  heels  undoubtedly  heard  first  before  she  was  seen  .  she  saw  no  cases  of  mora  ,  nor  even  a  cheque  sitting  atop  her  desk  …  which  could  only  mean  that  liyue  truly  hadn't  changed  after  all  . 

“            to  what  do  i  owe  the  pleasure  ,  captain  beidou  ?            ”                 her  voice  rang  out  ,  with  a  hint  of  amusement  as  she  came  to  stand  in  front  of  the  other  ,  seating  herself  casually  on  the  very  edge  of  her  desk  .  formalities  were  not  all  forsaken  when  around  beidou  ,  but  it  was  obvious  that  níngguāng  was  somewhat  more  relaxed  in  their  company  .  a  bad  habit  she's  come  to  have  .  there's  a  silence  that  falls  between  them  ,  the  tianquan  setting  aside  her  cigarette  holder  wordlessly  .  the  quiet  they  shared  was  a  subtle  thing  …  a  way  of  saying       '  i'm  glad  you're  home  safe  '  . 

níngguāng  let  out  the  gentlest  of  sighs  upon  feeling  the  other's  fingers  take  a  careful  hold  of  her  chin  ,  inviting  their  gazes  to  meet  .  a  bold  move  indeed  ,  one  that  only  the  captain  could  pull  off  .  to  touch  the  famed  tianquan  …  many  would  die  to  be  in  their  position  .  she  allowed  the  moment  to  persist  for  a  while  longer  ,  secretly  enjoying  the  featherlight  stroking  of  her  skin  by  the  other's  calloused  thumb  .               “            i  have  something  for  you  …          ”               she  uttered  ,  finally  shattering  the  silence  they  shared  in  .  she  carefully  (  reluctantly  )  pulled  away  from  beidou's  touch  and  stood  herself  up  ;  a  hand  reaching  behind  to  take  a  golden  slip  from  her  desk  .  a  pretty  thing  ,  even  complete  with  the  tianquan's  official  wax  seal  …  never  a  good  sign  ,  where  the  captain  is  concerned  . 

the  golden  slip  was  pressed  into  the  other's  hands  and  afterwards  ,  níngguāng  left  the  other's  immediate  vicinity  and  headed  to  sit  behind  her  desk  .  her  time  was  precious  and  the  moment  they  had  just  shared  was  gift  enough  for  the  day  .  she  began  arranging  the  various  scrolls  and  papers  strewn  across  her  desk  ,  regarding  beidou  with  the  ghost  of  a  smile  before  speaking  once  more  .               “            you  can  add  it  to  your  collection  .            ”

" can’t I just keep pretending that I’m your friend? " ( from gz! )

❝I…I DO NOT KNOW why you would…feel this is the best way to go about things, but I suppose you ‘pretending’ to be my friend would suffice. Be aware that you will be a person of interest as a result of being a mysterious friend of mine, Miss Guizhong.❞ People here loved to talk just as much as they loved a good rumor. Gossiping might as well be the life blood of Fontaine, but Neuvillette had long since become used to it. Hard not to when you have been here as long as he has. ❝While you are here, I can show you some wonderful places that could help pass the time. There is a restaurant I love going to that has the best soups.❞

moonlight angles in, drawn towards her by the clouds; the house is quiet, but not silent. music reverberates softly, gentle murmuring ⅋ laughter, the mechanical click of a keyboard── the sounds of a well-lived, well-loved home. alune drifts, through the living room ⅋ down the hall, humming the newest snippet her brother had deigned to show her, adding her own part to the symphony. ⅋ by the looks of it, it's the very same song he seems to be working on now as she pushes open the door. ❝ aphelios, ❞ she chides, ❝ take a break. how long have you been staring at that screen? ❞ 𖤐 ˎˊ˗

❛    ah, don't tell me you're here to admonish me! do you truly think i could have done anything to warrant a bounty that high? that portrait looks nothing like me, i have to admit. either you have the wrong witch, or you truly need a new set of hands for these wanted posters.    ❜

@iedolon // STARTER CALL. [ azhdaha. ]

"You have reason to visit me?"

There's a curious lilt to Osial's voice, head tipping as serpentine heads swivel to look upon the other, swaying in the cool ocean breeze, his own gaze remaining on the waves. One hand is outstretched as he plays with the tides, churning and slowing them in equal weighting, drawing constructs from below the surface only to smash them upon the cresting remains. A flagrant display of idle power, the amusment of the divine.

"If you have come to offer invite to the Assembly gathering, I decline. The adepti are better met in smaller circles, and I have no interest in their competitions of craft." His hand falls, coming to rest upon his knee, before he rises and turns to the other more fully, little remorse for his coarse words upon his visage. "Unless there's something else...?"

[heartsteeled]

❝ they opened up a new exhibit, right? something about poster design? ❞ if he sounds excited, well── it's because he is! after their debut, it's gotten harder ⅋ harder to find time for these kinds of outings. ( ⅋ what a shame, too! he's sure they've missed a couple of fun exhibits. ) ezreal's eyes crinkle, the only evidence of his wide smile that remains hidden underneath his mask. ❝ do you think anyone will recognize us? ❞ in truth, he wouldn't really care if people did / ( isn't that such a heartwarming lie? ) / but he'd much prefer if they weren't disturbed at all. 𖤐 ˎˊ˗

phel is here with some moonsilver trinkets and treats for the birds— happy birthday, kira!

the birds get to aphelios before kira could even open her mouth to greet him. nearly the moment they see him, all thirty - two of them are flying in a flurry of dark feathers to reach him before she is even able to take the first step forward, and kira lets out an audible groan of irritation. it wasn't just the treats brought for them that seemed to excite them, but more so being able to see someone that they considered a friend. some perch atop his shoulders, one on his head, and the others onto his arms as they all caw happily.

❛    alright, alright. get off of him, all of you.    ❜  kira says, sounding vaguely amused as she shoos the corvids away with the waving of her hands. they disperse, albeit with some reluctance. out of habit, kira brushes away any feathers that may have been caught onto the fabric of his clothes, smiling in amusement. ❛    well, aren't you sweet! taking time out of your day just to see me on today of all days, and with something in your hands too. i may not be flying to see you, but i'm always happy to see you around, aphelios.    ❜

@iedolon kira birthday 2024!

[cupcait]

I was lying and you fell for my bluff. ( from maddeleine ! ))

Mockery after deceit only manages to leave bitter taste in her mouth , a scowl twisting features as the truth settles in . It is a familiar feeling , one she had grown used to stomaching .

... But she's not entirely sure what statement shared is the lie . The reason for visit to Piltover ? The name ?

It leaves more questions than it does provide any answers . Caitlyn tilts her head , that scowl now settling into a look of sincere disbelief . ' Lying about ... what , exactly ? And why ? '

[starseered]

i never said i would help you. ( from phel….. )

hooved feet are tucked neatly beneath her & though she sits upon the earth, it is not to beg. instead, it is to observe properly, to see him framed against the skies : the silver light clings to him stubbornly , twofold. she had stated her visions in spite of it. that together, all their lights are only stronger — that it could be perfect, if only they approached it differently. many times has she laid this out for lunari and solari alike ; she can count on one hand those who were swayed. she cannot add him to the count, that much becomes clear. in the end, she understands, only wishes they could overcome ; a beautiful system, marred by ancient dieties squabbles. unforunate.

the fight will continue, their potential unreached. the moon & sun will rise & fall & clash still for a forseeable time, & the stars will merely weep when they illuminate only bloodshed . she pushes herself upwards , prophecies told and decisions made. she is not the shepherd any longer . so then all that is left is this : crescent-tipped staff reclaimed from it's place against a near wall, a mournful smile that conveys finality, acceptance, ' may light guide your way, aphelios. '

@iedolon asked :

“ you shouldn’t ask questions you know the answer to ” ( from phel!! )

❛ i like to know people's opinions! there's no harm in that! knowledge is like . . . a valuable resource! ❜ though the latter part of her statement makes the skin between her eyebrows wrinkle up. as if she's asking herself for reassurance on the matter to begin with. her hands are placed on her hips for a moment as she considers something. hands clumsily finding the words to interpret back, though lack of use makes her a bit awkward.

❛ plus talking isn't so bad, especially when you don't get to get out much, mayyybeeee that's just me? call it . . . CURIOSITY ! ❜ she's beaming with an obnoxiously large smile by the end of her following sentence. stubbornness comes in all flavors.
