(I wasn't hoarding this ask you were)

Hell yeah! Glad to have you in my ranks soldier! I love hearing from you, always brightens my day, so thank you for reaching out so often <3

Also, for the knife thing? Yeah, you should be. I know how to do knife tricks. Sadly I also already have many knives and swords so I don't need to be given a knife. You should just already be running. To me. So I can show off my sword collection.

excerpt from my upcoming neuvi fic, bc I'm excited. (Ft. Ningguang cuz she’s so hoootttttt)

(please read this with the knowledge that reader found out that neuvi was a dragon all on her own, resulting in supreme fluff and the deepening of their relationship. This excerpt takes place at a ball for neuvi’s birthday.)

She came to a stop in front of you, nodding at Neuvillette. 

“May I steal your lovely little assistant for this next dance?” Her voice even sounded rich, like she was someone incredibly important, incredibly powerful. 

Neuvillette tensed a bit, his hand still holding yours, bit he breathed, guiding you towards the golden woman. “By all means, enjoy yourselves.” 

“Good.” She took your hand, nodding to her companion. “Beidou, please entertain the Iudex, talk of trade or whatever strikes your fancy.” 

She pulled you along, guiding you into a new section of the dancefloor and immediately took up the position of the guiding role, pulling you this way and that, though very elegantly, and with practiced ease. 

“It’s lovely to finally meet the infamous little assistant.” She said, her ruby eyes glittering. 

You felt like you had a frog in your throat. “I’m sorry, I’m afraid I’m not sure who you are, miss.” 

“Ah,” she smiled. “You can call me Ningguang. I run some… business in liyue, and I'm hoping to better my connections with our neighbors by the sea, so to speak.” 

Ningguang… where had you heard that name before? 

“Ah, then I suppose I’m your gal,” you smiled, feeling a little more at ease. “Most trade negotiations come through me before they reach the Iudex.” 

“As I expected. I just wished to meet the person I would be sending my offers to, I would like to know who I’m in business with, you understand.” 

You nodded. “Of course, that’s completely understandable.”

”You're such a sweet little thing.” She smiled at you, and you still couldn't shake the feeling you knew her from somewhere. A woman with this aura of importance surely couldn't just be a merchant from liyue. 

You let your eyes roam past her shoulder, catching glimpses of her companion speaking with Neuvillette, laughing loudly at something he said and smacking the man on the shoulder in her amusement. 

He looked shocked, but was unmoving, a polite smile on his face. 

“So,” Ningguang said. “How long have you two been in love?”

You did trip this time, but she caught you, the sharps of her hand jewelry digging into your skin ever so slightly. 

“I beg your pardon?” You squeaked. 

She laughed, it was a rich and lucious melody you’d never heard in a laugh before. 

“Oh please, anyone with eyes can see the way he postures over you like a dog guarding a bone,” her gaze turned mischievous, then. “Or a dragon hoarding its treasure.” 

She must’ve felt the way you tensed, the slight quirk of your brow as she said it, because her eyes thinned with amusement, though you weren’t sure if it was on your behalf or at your expense. 

After finishing the dance in relative silence, the song ended, and she pulled you by your hand back towards Neuvillette and her companion, Beidou. 

She gave a dramatic bow at the waist, bringing your hand to her lips. “Thank you for indulging me, little one.” She pressed a kiss onto the white satin of your glove, her red lipstick only leaving the faintest of marks. “The information you gave me was most insightful.” 

You blushed intensely, not having the words to respond, so you just nodded, giving a light curtsy. 

“Congratulations, Monsieur, and Happy Birthday.” she said to Neuvillette. 

He bowed, very respectful. “Thank you, Lady Ningguang.” 

She dragged her companion away towards the drink table, and it suddenly hit you. 

“That was…” holy celestia. 

“Lady Ningguang, the Tianquan of the Liyue Qixing, yes.” Neuvillette sighed. 

“And you let me dance with her without a warning?!” You whisper-yelled. 

Neuvillette seemed to shake some unwanted emotions off, steadying himself with a heavy grip on his ornamental cane. “Lady Ningguang is not one to be denied such simple requests, and besides,” he looked down at you. “I thought you knew.” 

“Pardon me for not expecting to be asked to dance by the leader of a nation.” You grumbled slightly. 

Neuvillette laughed, short and quick before he covered it with a cough— clearing his throat. 

“And what is so amusing?” You looked up at him expectantly, a little taken aback at how open and soft his expression was. 

“She’s only the second leader of a nation to ask you for a dance, my dear. I had the privilege of being the first.” 

Your stomach did somersaults at his words, the tone of his voice, his eyes fluttering all across your exposed skin. You felt hot, so very hot. 

“What information did you give her?” Neuvillette asked, though it lacked an accusatory tone. 

“I didn’t really say anything to her,” you mumbled. “Though I think she suspects you to be a dragon.” 

He scoffed a little, voice low and teasing. “And I wonder what kind of woman would ever come to that conclusion, hmm?” 

Your stomach decided it was some sort of acrobat, and your thighs quivered. 

“Excuse me a moment, I’m going to get a drink.” You managed to squeak out. “Would you like one?” 

“Water, if you would.”

I. Was making up my bed to be extra comfy cozy, I ended up tucking the comforter down on the bed to lay on, and thought, "oh my hips like to hyper extend while I'm sleeping, I should make some walls out of pillows to help me hold them in place". So I took some squishmallows to make walls and tucked them under the blanket and went "hmm the walls aren't long enough" so I ended up rooting around in my clothing to pad the walls, and I DEFINITELY added my favorite sweater bc it smells like me in that "safe, home" way, and then. As I was tucking it up by where my head goes, I realized. I. Am just making a nest. This is nesting behaviour.

ITS NICE AND COMFY THOUGH, EVEN IF THE WALLS ARENT TALL ENOUGH BC I DONT HAVE ENOUGH PILLOWS

Also hi, I think this is my second time sending you an ask ever, and one of the few times I'll actually send anyone asks bc for some reason asks on Tumblr are super scary??? The other ask I had sent was Abt getting invited to a munch (I didn't go 😔)

💜💜💜💜 sorry for a super long message!!! Ily (post publicly, respond privately, or hoard it, I don't mind :3)

Gkfjdjdj don’t we all do a little bit of nesting? 😂 I get it tho, hard to get comfortable when you have pain problems

And hey, that’s alright. I’m glad you sent an ask at all 💕 good for you, I know it’s scary talking to people lol I’m not being sarcastic either
