"I would keep my distance if I were you. The area ahead is teeming with monsters." It is where Xiao will be headed next - as is his sworn duty to exterminate the evil that plagues these lands.

𝐀𝐭 𝐬𝐨𝐦𝐞 𝐩𝐨𝐢𝐧𝐭 𝐢𝐧 𝐩𝐚𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐡𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐛𝐮𝐬𝐭𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐞𝐞𝐭𝐬 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐦𝐚𝐫𝐤𝐞𝐭𝐬, he’d gained a shadow. With so many eyes and ears still on alert after the Luofu’s most recent disaster, it’s of little surprise that he’s been noticed. Though he’d have thought such esteemed members of the celestial vessel’s security would be more preoccupied in hunting down remnants of the Sanctus Medicus than a lone criminal. It’d take so very little to permanently rid himself of this irritant, but when he turns a corner and glimpses just who it is that follows him, that particular option is taken from him.

Killing the boy would mean nothing, but Jing Yuan’s tolerance and sentiment is all that keeps Blade from the chains of the Shackling Prison. Inviting the general’s ire would ruin what he still needs to do upon this accursed ship. So, when he turns another corner that leads into a private courtyard, he greets the boy with the sharp end of his sword. “Didn’t your master teach you to leave well enough alone?” / @astralcrew

─「エデン」─  that voice. the sound of her name being uttered in a soft voice she knew and recognized was like an IMMEDIATE wake up call. it was ... so soft, the sounds, the reassurance, it dripped slowly onto her dried up mind and gave it the life she had been clinging on so desperately.

                warmth. she could feel warmth wrapping around her hand, enveloping carefully yet gently as though the other was trying to pull her back from crossing the line she couldn't come back from. fingers twitched within the tender hold, and she leaned closer towards the other. come back ? back ...

                " ... march ... ? " golden optics were still quivering slightly, but she could feel that overwhelming WORRY seeping through every syllable and touch. the name of her companion fell in a quiet tone, barely above a whisper. that alone, however, spoke how her mind had slowly returned to present time. " i ... " words disappeared down her throat as she clenched at the archer's hand tighter.

                " is this real ... ? " am i real ?

@astralcrew asked: ❛ here, take this. you’ll catch a cold. ❜ // from stelle !!

"Oh! Isn't that .... your coat?" March 7th replied with a cant of her head. - It was awfully nice of Stelle to offer but it didn't feel right accepting. After all, she looked cold too.

"That's okay! Really ... I spent who knows how long trapped in ice and was just fine afterwards. A little rain won't hurt me - you need it more than I do... but thank you for offering .... despite being a littleeee weird. You're a very kind person..."

─「エデン」─  " i wasn't staring at all, it must've been your imagination, general. " the TRAILBLAZER cleared her throat while subtly looked to the side after being caught red-handed over staring at him while he was explaining to her the rules of celestial jade. she was paying attention, of course, until he leaned a little closer than she expected and she found herself staring at how deep and rather distracting his eye was. did she know he was most likely to see through her lie ? yes. was she going to admit it, though ? of course not. " please, go on. i'm listening. i've been paying attention. " she was totally distracted.

the general raises an eyebrow when the other speaks , watching color flood his cheeks. it's endearing , really , & jing yuan is content to listen to him speak.

❛ taking comfort in solitude ... i can understand the appeal. ❜

jing yuan hums slightly , glancing down at his companion. this place is quiet at night , & perhaps not the most dangerous , but he could still get lost .

❛ no need to apologize , my friend. if there's something on your mind , it's always better said. ❜

a shake of his head & a small chuckle is given in response , crossing his arms over his chest.

❛ pleasure to meet you , raiden. i am jing yuan. ❜

a beat of pause.

❛ you're not from here , are you ?? i don't think i've seen you before. ❜

His Tail sways excitedly & the smile that sneaks upon his visage CANNOT BE TAMED.

❛ & - & it’s a pleasure to OFFICIALLY meet you too— ! ! ! ❜

Copper locks bounce as his head briskly bops up & down.

❛ CORRECT. I’ve only just arrived YESTERDAY morning ! Actually— Maybe you can help me ! i— . . . ❜

a short pause—now how could he say this next bit without being too HONEST but VAGUE enough to where he wasn’t SUSPICIOUS ?

❛ I’ve came here looking for . . . Answers. ❜

Yeah , that totally ‘ WANST ‘ a MYSTERIOUS way of putting that.

❛ Heh— is there any like— YKNNOOOOW— places here people go to worship ? ❜

[stormfangs]

⊰ ` - @astralcrew:

❛ ooooooh , you stared at him ?? oh , oh , do you liiiike him ?! ❜

❛ ................................................................... ❜

He will neither confirm or deny.

[stormfangs]

⊰ ` - @astralcrew:

❛ really ?? i thought he'd be more ... intimidating , i guess. was he nice ?? ❜

❛ I mean--- He showed incredible GRACE to a RANDOM guy who STARED at him for a good SOILD MINUTE. So-- Yeah, I'd say he's pretty nice. ❜
