❝I wanna be a virgin, ＰＵＲＥ A twenty-first century ＷＨＯＲＥ I want back my ＶＩＲＧＩＮＩＴＹ So I can feel ＩＮＦＩＮＩＴＹ❞ "The Chinese believe that different colors have different meanings. It is said that red means good luck and passion, yellow means royalty and heroism, and white means bad luck and mourning. The color purple was said to bring spiritual awareness, physical and mental healing, strength, and abundance to whomever bore the color. The question is; does it still work if you no longer believe it?" {Indie RP blog for the Imperial city of Beijing. Please read rules and about before interacting }

"Get down!" -captainrustedfort

“What? Why?”

[captainrustedfort-archived]

He eyed the window for a few moments, looking for the group of men in suits before shoving the woman’s head down under the counter. “Just do as I say or we’ll get hurt!” he said through grinding teeth, crouching beneath the counter, too.

[beijxng-blog]

Glaring at him for a moment, she glanced briefly at the men on the other side of the counter before reluctantly doing as she was told. “Hands. Off.” she warned in a harsh whisper, slowly pushing his hand away from her.

“After being part of an arranged marriage as many times as I have, you kind of lose interest in the whole dating thing. I might toy with the notion of looking for someone every once in a while, but I have my doubts that it will ever happen. Partially because I think I set my standards too high.”

[Oh look at that, she’s out of cigarette. She’s just gonna toss that in a nearby trash bin]

“While I could very well go on for hours about my home, it’s much more interesting to experience for yourself than to just hear someone tell you about it. If you’re ever in Beijing, hit me up.”

[terradisirene]

“That must of been a fucking pain, least you don’t gotta deal with that bullshit no more. I sorta got high standards too so I don’t really bother looking for anyone either. I get you there.”

-He takes one more drag on his and tosses it in as well, he wouldn’t want to make a bad impression by littering-

“Then I’ll do that. You’re a good gal I think so far, and like I said pretty, so I sure as hell wouldn’t mind you showing me ‘round. I could do the same if you ever wanna look around my place. I buy you something nice too, like gelato.”

[beijxng-blog]

“I’ll certainly keep that in mind next time I’m in Italy. Rome has showed me around his place a few times, but honestly, I ended up learning more about him than his home.”

[blinks]

“Ah, I’ve heard of gelato before. I haven’t had the chance to try it, though, as it’s not really something they openly market in China, but I definitely wouldn’t mind trying some. Angelo makes it sound amazing.”

“I am aware, I expect me to still worry and tell you not to.” Kiki replied with a bright smile as she pulled the cookie tin open. “It’s okay, Mei gave me money the last time I went to visit her and she said she stole it from Yao. So he’s paying for my flights.”

[beijxng-blog]

“Or, to save on travel fees, you can hold onto those cookies until the Capital Meeting in London this week. That way you won’t have to fly to several different countries on a girl scout mission, because we’ll all be in one place.”

[kyokasuigetsuu-deactivated20171]

“Oh,” Kiki hadn’t known about the meeting coming up. Despite living in Tokyo her capital didn’t really inform her of much. Kiku was the go to for that kind of information. “All of the capitals together must be pretty lively and fun.”

[beijxng-blog]

“Lively, yes. Not sure if ‘fun’ is the word I would use, though.” she replied honestly, giving a light shrug. She doubted that they would even get anything done at the meetings without London and Paris there. They were the only two anybody actually listened to.

“Ah, yes? What is it?” she asked, placing her teacup down.

❁—« Yao continued to hold her tightly, resting his chin on her head and wrapping her in a protective embrace like he did all those years ago. “I love you, Lien Mei. I’m still proud of you. You’ve grown to be such a strong, independent young lady.” »

[beijxng-blog]

After a few minutes of quiet sobbing, Lien Mei took a deep breath and sighed, gently resting her head on Yao’s shoulder. “I.. I’m sorry, baba.. I’m sorry..” she whispered, taking deep breaths.

❁—« He paused. How did he answer this? “I…I’m disappointed. That is all.” Yao couldn’t truly deny or affirm her question, as his response would lie somewhere between the two extremes. “This does not make me love you any less. You are still my daughter.”

[beijxng-blog]

She gave a small nod, streams of tears continuing to melt down her face and eventually turning into shaking sobs. It was nice to hear that he loved her, anyway. She didn’t deserve that much. But it still didn’t make her feel any less ashamed of herself.

[beijxng-blog]

Lien Mei was surprisingly quick to return his embrace, burying her face into his shoulder and crying softly. How long had it been since she last cried? Decades? She honestly didn’t remember, nor did she understand why she suddenly decided to let it out now. She’d always been able to cover it up with snarky remarks, but this time.. “.. I’m sorry, baba..” 

[ancientpeonies-deactivated20160]

❁—« “It’s okay,” he replied softly, holding her tightly. He gently rubbed her back as she cried, feeling awful that he hadn’t been there for her like he should have always been. “I promise I’ll be better this time around. And I’m always here for you.” »

[beijxng-blog]

“I.. It’s not that..” she murmured, wrapping her arms tightly around him and sniffling. Damn, she felt so pathetic. She was over seven hundred years old, this shouldn’t be happening. “You... You’re ashamed of me now, aren’t you..? I’ve.. Dishonored you, haven’t I?”

She still didn’t bother to look at him, but she didn’t need to look to know that he’s ashamed of her. “Y-you… You keep saying that you-.. Stop pretending that you were there for me! You weren’t there! You wouldn’t know-!”

[ancientpeonies-deactivated20160]

❁—« He froze, heart sinking in his chest. “Lien, look at me,” he said firmly, taking her face in his hands. “I’m sorry, okay? I’m sorry I wasn’t there for you like I should have been. And you’re right, I don’t know. But I thought you would’ve realized you could come to me if you had to…” »

[beijxng-blog]

Lien just barely managed to look at him when he took her face in his hands, not noticing the tears starting to form in her eyes. “H-how could I... Realize that.. I-if you.. Never... Tell me.. Anything-!” she choked, shutting her eyes tightly while little droplets of salt trickled down her face.

☁ - For a nightmare »

❁—« He couldn’t move, but he wished he could. Damn these ropes–if he could just grab the knife around the nearby man’s belt… But he couldn’t, his wrists were tied back, too.  The man took the same blade Yao had been yearning to have in his own hands, and approached Lien Mei. No no no–

“Stop!” he cried out, the words following that slipping into anxious Mandarin.  His mind was too frazzled to comprehend speaking any other language at this point. The man continued to approach her–she was unconscious, which Yao wasn’t sure whether or not to be thankful for–raised his arm, and swung the knife down to–

An anguished scream pierced the cool summer night. Yao trembled in his bed, hoping he hadn’t awoken Beijing with his terrified shriek.  »

[beijxng-blog]

Lien Mei was forcefully pulled from her sleep by the bloodcurdling scream that had echoed through the walls of her house. She practically jumped out of bed, almost instinctively, and rushed into Yao’s bedroom. After being alove for over 700 years, it only made sense that she would jump at such signs of distress.

“What happened!?” she shouted.

[ancientpeonies-deactivated20160]

❁—« Yao stared at the wall before he finally registered his daughter’s presence in his room. “I…It’s nothing. Just a nightmare.” Relief flooded through him because there she was, safe and sound. He didn’t have to worry that the nightmare was actually a memory of some past event. Yao shakily sat up, wringing his hands as he sighed.  At this time of night, he looked more exhausted than usual, dark bags ringing his eyes.  “…Go back to sleep, Lien Mei.” »

[beijxng-blog]

A nightmare? Well, those weren’t necessarily uncommon among personifications, especially those who have been alive for as long as Yao has. But whatever it was must have been pretty bad in order to make him scream so loudly. Even in the dark room, Lien could see that he was quite shaken up. “.. Are you okay? Do you want me to stay here for a while..?”
