..   my  relationship  and  connection  to  minhuang  does  not  concern  you.   please  leave  me  to  my  work.

@yueites⸒   mhm...   surely,   you  understand?   he  is  my  elder  sister's  child,   my  only  nephew.    family...   we  all  gave  our  lives  to  make  sure  he  got  to  safety.     he  is...    it  is  my  way  of  making  sure  he  is  alright.

..    your  footsteps  are  heavy.   why  are  you  following  me?

yueites

perhaps  you  should  stop  stalking  me.   you  ask  me  what  i  truly  think  of  my  master,   say  to  me  that  he  was  cruel..   perhaps  you  should  reflect  in  the  same  way  on  your  prince.

@yueites,       ...   i  can't  speak  on  his  behalf,   considering  that  i  also  died  in  that  mess.   perhaps  you  two  should  sit  down  and  work  out  your  issues  yourselves.

..   do  you  know  how  long  it  took  your  prince  to  tell  me  my  mother  was  dead?  a  /week/.  i  nearly  starved.

these  crows..  i  was  feeding  them,  but  they  seem  to  dislike  me.  they  pecked  at  my  fingers  instead  of  the  seed.
          [  blood  trickles  down  from  his  fingertips,  dripping  into  a  little  puddle  of  it  on  the  ground.  the  area  is  right  outside  mohan’s  territory,  so  it  makes  sense  that  the  crows  and  black  birds  would  be  more  aggressive.  still..  they’ve  been  eating  the  butterflies,  and  the  god  couldn’t  help  but  feel  bad,  so  he  brought  some  feed.  it  clearly  didn’t  end  very  well.  ]

@tranqile,      it  doesn't.     (   his  brows  narrow  the  moment  yin  shui  mentions  the  children,   lips  drawn  into  a  scowl.   never  again  would  he  smile  for  this  man,   or  so  he  thinks.   his  silver  eyes  roll  slightly.   )     of  course  they  did.  ...   they're  ghost  children,   forever  young.

            ..  they  seemed  hungry,  given  how  they  have  an  appetite  for  butterflies.  ..and  my  blood,  if  that  surprises  you  at  all.
            [  it  does  not  surprise  the  god  of  tranquility,  given  their  history  with  each  other.  made  with  mohan’s  spiritual  energy..  perhaps  his  entire  being  is  a  natural  born  target.  ]  ..the  children  also  recommended  it.  they  felt  sorry.

@tranqile,     ...   idiot.   they're  made  with  my  spiritual  energy,   they  don't  need  to  feed  off  anything.    (    dressed  in  a  black  and  red  hanfu,    liu  qiang  crosses  his  arms.  a  crow  flies  to  sit  on  his  shoulder.  )    they're  just  greedy.    don't  go  feeding  them  next  time.

it  was  so  long  ago,  but  i  have  not  forgotten  what  i  said  ..’someone  like  you’.  ..  it  was  not  meant  to  sound  how  it  did,  i  realised.  you  took  it  the  wrong  way.  it  was  because  i  admired  you,  not..  hated.  it  was  not  an  attack  on  your  illness,  or  your  situation,  a-han.  you  were  always  the  smiling  one..  i  thought  that  i  could  never  in  my  life  give  such  a  carefree  smile.

            you  fell  for  someone  who  could  only  protect  themselves,  what  did  you  expect  ?  i  had  only  wanted  to  give  you  a  chance  with  another,  why  must  you  despise  me  to  the  core  ?  your  death—  of  course,  it  was  my  fault,  but  i  am  a  /selfish/  being,  a-han.  i  still  want,  when  there  is  nothing  to  be  given.  i  beg  when  there  is  no  mercy  to  be  granted.  my  juniors  learn  from  me,  so  perhaps  i  can  only  spin  them  down  this  fate..  but  i  will  /never/  let  you  take  every  single  life  they  still  have  so  much  to  live  out.

@tranqile,      i  didn't  /ask/   you  to  protect  me.   and  i  certainly  don't  need  your  protection  now.     (...)       hmph.    do  you  really  think  that  will  protect  them  from  me?    stop  me  from  watching  as  their  blood  nourishes  the  roots  of  the  earth?    well  /lord/   yin  shui,   let's  see  you  stop  me.

            i  cared  before,  when  you  confessed—  i  did  it  to  /protect/  you  from  me-  why  don’t  you  understand  that  !?  i  didn’t  want  you  to  feel  the  heartbreak  i  had,  or  the  rumours  to  spread  beyond  repair  —   i  am  not  /normal/,  mohan.  my  body  isn’t.  back  then,  it  was  all  they  ever  teased  me  for.  no  matter  how  kind  you  were  to  me,  i  was  always  so  scared.  afraid  you  would  turn  around  and  tell  me  the  same  thing  they  did..    my  juniors  —  they’re  like  us,  when  we  were  still  free  from  all  of  this-  they’re  making  connections,  a-han.  not  just  friendships.

            some  people  are  just  like  that,  been  scared  before  and  choose  to  build  walls  ‘cause  they  don’t  wanna  get  hurt  again.  that’s  probably  why.

@amthymes,      i  threw  a  pink  peony  at  him  once,   and  he  still  didn't  take  me  seriously.    the  only  time  id..  ever  seen  him  care  was  when  i  died.

have  i  offended  the  presence  of  another  ?  it  wouldn’t  be  the  first  time,  state  your  claim.  i  could  reimburse  you,  if  it’s  a  fair  ask.  though  ..if  you  ask  me  to  depart  from  this  area  that  houses  many  of  my  sources,  i  might  have  to  refuse.
