“Good, cause you won’t see me going crazy. I’ve got everything under control. If I’m going and wearing a dress and putting in all that effort, I think you should go too. After all, you guys have it way easier.”

“Alright, alright. I’ll go. I’m sure I have a suit in the back of my wardrobe somewhere. I couldn’t imagine putting in nearly half the amount of effort you girls do.”

He hissed, rubbing his shoulder. “I should have stretched more before practicing.”

bai looked up at the male and his face lightened up like a kid’s.

          ‘ really? ’

“Of course. Where were you trying to go?”

      ❛ i’m not here for nothing. that’s      good then, because a smart person    like you should be running this country.     why couldn’t your parents have been       king and queen? that sounds like a               much better idea to me. ❜

“True. I don’t think I could handle running the country, and in all honesty I don’t want to. It’s a big responsibility and a very bold position. I’m a bit more discreet.” He considered the idea, but only laughed a little. “That would be because my parents aren’t actually royalty. They’re regarded as important and accomplished people, but not royalty.”

“No, I’m really not stressed even if I do need a break. I probably will go, otherwise taking a break will feel like a bit of a waste since I’ll have nothing to do.”

“I’ll take your word for it, but if I see you going crazy over school work then we’ll have a problem. I guess I could still not go, but I think it would be easier to, just so I’m not wondering ‘what if’ all night.”

bai looked at the male and he shrunk, holding the paper to his chest.

           ‘ m lost… ’

he mumbled, embarassed.

“Is that all? I can definitely help,” he said, voice soft.

“Fists or blades, Li?” Anaxandra asked as she waved him towards her.

“Ooh, we have options,” he said jokingly, walking towards her. “Let’s go with fists.”

“I hope not”

“It won’t be. Trust me.”

    ❛ and you shouldn’t have to rely       on anyone. be your own person,     that’s what my mother had always   told me. you can’t lurk in the shadows        of anyone, you have to be who              you were meant to be. ❜

“That’s very sound advice,” he said, nodding. He was sure his parents, his mother in particular, would agree. “I don’t intend to lurk in the shadows unless I wish to. Then again, I’m not naturally the kind of person to draw a lot of attention, but that’s alright too.”

“so i’m not the only confused one then? oh thank god.”

“You’d be surprised at how many people don’t understand any of this. Everyone’s running around like headless chickens.”

     ❛ i can’t even imagine the chaos that it would cause.    it’ll sure be fun to watch the meltdowns play out though. ❜

“As long as none of the chaos is too close to me, I’m sure it’ll be interesting to watch. Hopefully no one will burn the place down.”

Anaxandra removed her mask, breathing heavily and looking around for someone else to verse. “Who’s next?”

Xing half-heartedly raised his hand. “I’m up for it.”

“okay–care to explain the point of this…ball, thing, to me? like, i love godmother, i really do, but–what was she thinking?“

“I would love to, but I’m afraid I’m just as in the dark as you are.”

baixjing:

bai looked around, a lost look on his face as he looked at his paper.

       ‘ u-um, help? ’

Xing tried to resist the urge to laugh, he really did. “What with?”

     ❛ well, i hope so too. i’m sure whatever            you have to do will work out or i’ll                    see to it that it does. ❜

kostas meant it. he wanted this young man to do what he wanted. he wanted him to fulfill whatever he needed to. and hell if someone was going to get in the way because he’d simply tear their head off.

      ❛ even if you don’t sit back, nothing        will happen to you, so do as you want. ❜

The sincerity surprised him. People often told him his efforts would be futile or that he didn’t need to work so hard because his parents would provide everything for them. While the offspring of heroes were generally nicer, they didn’t quite know what hardship was sometimes. He didn’t want his parents to spend their time and money on him for the rest of his life, and as great of a man his father was, he would want him to make a name for himself.

“Thank you. As nice as the people here are, some of them... Some of them don’t work for what they receive. It’s not everyone, but it’s a fair amount. I don’t want to have to rely on anyone.”
