Wangxian Prompt/Self-fill Dump

Moonflower Pt 2

Wei Ying sat beside his mother after he had finished his performance, his mask remaining firmly in place even as he carefully ate and drank while the dinner went on. His mother ran her fingers through his hair and he wanted to purr at the touch. However, he entertained himself by watching the others. Many were quickly getting drunk and a bit rowdy while others kept eyeing himself or his mother. His attention is drawn to a Jin who walked up to their table, the guards quickly pointed their weapons at the bold man, who simply holds up his up.

"I wish to toast Her Excellency and her heir, may you live for 10,000 years!" He says.

His mother narrows her eyes at the bold fool and delicately picks up her drink, but does not drink it.

"Who are you?" She demands calmly.

"This one is Jin Zixun, nephew of Sect Leader Jin Guangshan!" He says with all the air of someone self important, but with no outstanding accolades to his name, nor any fame of his own.

"Hm... I refuse." She said simply and sets the cup down with nary a sound and the Jin is left sputtering in humiliation and shock. "This one does not need pointless toasts made to garner favor."

"I--"

"Be gone or the guards will remove you... they will not leave you in one piece if they do." She warns and he quickly beats a retreat. No one else dares to boldly approach until it is time to get up and properly greet Heir.

Wei Ying gives a polite smile and nods at the guests as they come up to wish him happiness and a long life or good luck in his chosen path and in love. He is mentally crying in boredom when a pair of twins walk up and bow deeply before him. He is floored at their unearthly beauty and the scent of winter, sandalwood incense and something uniquely them. Their eyes are golden, one pure and bright like refined gold while the other was darker like burnished gold, almost amber in color. They set a gift down like the others have, but Wei Ying cannot fight his curiosity as he pulls the fabric off the top and gasps seeing an adorable pitch black bunny.

"Aww, so cute!" He gasps and picks up the bunny and cuddles it. "Are you just the sweetest little thing... This one thanks the handsome geges for such a wonderful gift." He bows and they bow back, humming softly as they move to bow to his mother and then leave for their seat, but Wei Ying's eyes are on them and he ignores the others who try to gain his attention...
