thanks for, yanno, not killin me. best mom i ever had! - denji

     ' ... Mom ? ' Quanxi's brows furrow - not in annoyance , somehow , only in absolute confusion . Maybe he's getting the wrong idea of her friendship with Kishibe . Maybe he needs something to make up for the family he'd lost .

     ...

     A sigh . She won't enable it , but she won't condemn it , either . Seems like a fair medium . '

     ' Didn't want to kill you to begin with . Just a job . Job's change . Like now . ' Tapping bottom of cigarette pack , she decides she's changed her mind about taking one out just yet : instead , she rises to her feet & heads for the fridge . ' You eat today ? '

Shifting into lover's touch, the jingle of shackles clank together against the fiend's wrists. A gentle smile crossed her cheeks, purring almost like a cat with every stroke. Long's gaze falls upon the woman's eyes patch, coming to bring their own finger tips to touch around the leather & brushing their thumbs against scarred skin.

❛ Mm, how was your day, Qīn? ~ ❜

     Pleased  with  Long’s  response  ,  Quanxi  begins  swirling  small  circles  ‘round  the  base  of  lover’s  neck  :  a  habit  she’d  often  find  herself  doing  so  naturally  .  She’d  thought  it  was  to  comfort  Long  ,  but  ...  only  now  ,  she’s  realizing  the  comfort  it  brings  her  .  

     With  anyone  else  ,  such  contact  would  result  in  a  broken  arm  at  the  very  least  .  It’s  different  with  her  girls  .  Boundaries  are  so  easy  to  break  down  with  them  .  

     ‘  ...  Much  of  the  same  .  Just  a  quick  job  today  .  ‘  Lips  find  partner’s  jawline  ,  free  hand  cupping  under  chin  to  bring  skin  closer  .  ‘  Should  be  enough  for  our  weekend  out  .  I’m  surprised  you  didn’t  go  out  with  the  others  today  ...  were  you  waiting  for  me  ?  ‘

lightly bops her head with the frying pan. (lovingly)

' Wah ?! '

Kiana , of course , reacts rather dramatically . Hands shoot up to cover her head , offering Mei a pitiful frown as her voice whines out .

' I swear I didn't eat all the food for tonight !! If it's missing , it wasn't me !! '

Cheek kiss 💋

     How  unexpectedly  forward  from  such  a  bashful  girl  —  as  expected  ,  the  boldness  displayed  prior  quickly  slips  away  as  Mei  grows  flustered  with  own  actions  .  Cheeks  flush  crimson  ,  and  she's  bowing  while  repeated  rushed  apologies  .

     '  You  needn't  be  so  embarrassed  ,  Miss  Mei  .  In  truth  ...  your  affections  are  welcome  .  May  I  return  the  favor  ?  ~  '

@inazumakis sent : [ catch ] receiver starts to fall, so sender reaches out and catches them

SOMETIMES, THEY TEND TO WANDER OFF whenever their mind gets to them. they have obtained the habit to just ( ... ) walk off whenever they get too absorbed within theirthoughts. there is always never a specific destination in mind. they just go until their mind QUIETS down. until everything is silenced they remain trudging, venturing into places familiar and unfamiliar. it does not take long for them to find an end to their suffocating thoughts. slowly, they emerge back from everything that plagues their mind and it is only then that they find clarity. the place that they are in is dangerous but ultimately beautiful. it shows a clear view of the vast landscapes from below that they fail to factor in how close they appear to be at the edge of where they stand. there isn't any PROPER railings so they realize that they should be careful.

but alas, luck isn't something that they are always grazed with. a shuffle in the distance gets them wary, the lack of any COMPANY or notable people makes them draw out their bat just in case but they forget their SURROUNDINGS. a slip in their footing and they tumble back, heel failing to catch the end of the cliff and for a split second --- their heart drops. despondency gets them to a lot of places but they never quite thought that IDIOCY would get them killed. as their eyes widen, they brace for their fall.

a fall that NEVER comes. a hand catches ther own, warm and familiar. it keeps them from falling & as they look upon the face of their savior, they feel a strong sense of recognition. had mei grasped their hand before once upon a time ? a flash of recollection. memories that are not their own appear before their eyes but they ultimately do not get too hasty and instead, chooses to prioritize their safety before DIVULGING into questions. helping themselves up, they smile. " thank you, mei. "

The benefits of being a Kaslana : you're basically guaranteed to pull a baddie Raiden or Yae in any universe ...

@inazumakis sent : “ if you're uncomfortable, you can tell me. “

IT IS NOT REALLY DISCOMFORT THAT THEY FEEL just more or less ... a sense of sadness. there is a sparkle in her eyes that seems much more foreign than the one that they are more familiar with but they do not HATE it. in fact, her gentleness is still akin to a person that they are more well-versed with. this understanding & this unmistakable care extended out ; they know for sure that she is a good person. that extends to the person in front of her too. mei. a name that they are not too familiar with but given her appearance and her state of being --- they are sure that this is a variation of a person that they have met before. but, they do not wish to treat her as a mere duplicate. she has a separate life of her own. VALUES of her own. they will not make her feel unwanted when all she is doing is extending her utmost mindfulness much like now.

" sorry for causing concern, mei. i'm alright. this is just a scratch. thank you for tending to me. "

@inazumakis sent : [ MISSED YOU ] for a reconciliation hug.

AN UNINTELLIGIBLE SOUND MAKES ITS WAY out of their lips from the way that they are enveloped into a hug. they do not know why but --- this person feels familiar. they hold no sense of recollection with seeing her before but being in their hug RELINQUISHES feelings that they never quite anticipated to feel. their heart aches. and it throbs wildly against their chest, threatening to burst. they ... know her but they cannot remember. they cannot recall. they cannot figure out what it is about this gesture that makes it feel like they have been with her through countless of adventures. countless of decisions. countless of journeys. but they can only grasp a hold of her shoulders & slightly part.

" um .. " for some reason, doing that SHATTERS a piece of them. there is immediate regret that washes over their face and it worsens upon catching a glimpse of her visage. a striking resemblance to the person that she knows of. but in some way she's distant --- not someone that they know of personally. they're never usually awkward with ENCOUNTERS such as this. in fact, they aren't even squeamish when it comes to physical contact but it feels like everything about this makes them feel strange.

her face & a person that they know of. acheron. they gulp down a lump that has formed in their throat. no matter the similarities, they are much too aware that she is a different person. IS SHE ? no, they are certain that even with this similarity they are not one and the same. " did you - " for some reason this HURTS to state out loud. " mistake me for somebody else ? "
