" i'm taking you home with me. i mentioned before that i'd take you to see the sights as well.. if you are available that is. " ⠀of course, he always considered his job as a navigator. yet, saying the word 'home' felt new to him.. but it felt right given that he'll be with ulrich.
recordkept
⌣̩̩̩̥̩͜⟢ ꠦꫂꯥ⠀ ──── ( @themoonlits ) a soft chuckle could be heard from ulrich as he held onto the ravenette's hand〝 staying so long in nod-krai has made me nearly forget about the thought of properly traveling. so i'd love to go on this journey if it means being with you ＂ he replied while laying a kiss on the back of xiaoyue's palm
themoonlits
" i explicitly reminded you to keep close. you were all over the place, now it has come to this. " ⠀yet, his anger dissipates just as quickly. the worrisome tone follows, querying. ⠀" where is the wound? "
recordkept
⌣̩̩̩̥̩͜⟢ ꠦꫂꯥ⠀ ──── ( @themoonlits ) the cool water that had poured out from the gourd onto his wound made the pirate somewhat shiver, causing ulrich to seek warmth by burying his face against the crook of xiăoyuè's neck〝 hah, guess being the captain of my own ship has its tolls on me, huh? ＂ he jokingly said before briefly falling silent. a small sigh could later be heard from him before he spoke once more〝 i just.. felt the need to look after you in that moment just like i would've done with my crew. but i promise i'll put more trust in depending on you if that is what you'd want ＂
themoonlits
" you do not trouble me by the slightest, no matter the circumstance. " ⠀that rare, curvature graced upon lips is subtle yet comforting───coming from such an inexpressible swordsman, the chaste brush of lips further prolonging one's countenance. ⠀" how fortunate that the wound hadn't cut very deep, this shall take awhile. be still in the meantime. " ⠀roughly tugging to the sleeve of his garment, it rips easily under the firm grasp. the cap from the gourd later unsealed. amidst the act, water was delicately poured to the bleeding area, and he spoke once again. ⠀" truthfully, i would love for you to depend on me more often. "

⌣̩̩̩̥̩͜⟢ ꠦꫂꯥ⠀ ──── ( @themoonlits ) xiăoyuè must have noticed his uneasiness when he spotted the suitou. but the ravenette's assurance, though, had made him relax while he pressed his cheek affectionately against the hand that held his jaw〝 i can handle a little pain, it's not a big deal. but i'll still be sure to tell you if it hurts ＂ the pirate's form slightly leaned closer to the traveler before he placed a chaste kiss on his forehead〝 thank you, for doing all of this.. i hope it isn't too much of a hassle ＂
themoonlits
" i didn't expect for the waves to get this rowdy tonight .. are you alright? you got drenched as well. "
recordkept
⌣̩̩̩̥̩͜⟢ ꠦꫂꯥ⠀ ──── ( @themoonlits ) the bottom half of his flushed face was hidden behind his hand as he was tucked under the covers beside the ravenette〝 mhm, i'm all good here ＂ came his slightly muffled reply before he buried his face into the pillow below him〝 are you um, comfortable yourself? ＂ he asked as an eye peeked behind his bangs to look at xiăoyuè, trying his best to stay focused on the traveler's features and not have his eyes wander further below
themoonlits
" that won't be necessary. " ⠀without hesitation, ulrich was gently urged towards the bed───insisting silently for him to lay down; in which he complied. ⠀" i'll stay close to you if that is what you desire. " ⠀he joins his side, yet the blanket softly cascades, partially however. it was shortly adjusted to cover both of them, to also keep ulrich warm from the mishap. ⠀" how are you feeling? "
recordkept
⌣̩̩̩̥̩͜⟢ ꠦꫂꯥ⠀ ──── ( @themoonlits ) 〝 hah, that's quite the tempting offer you're putting onto the table. nearly makes it impossible for me to refuse ＂ did he seem nervous? because he definitely felt that way as he melted against the ravenette's touch. becoming speechless was an understatement, he was downright smitten as he could only stare at xiăoyuè. magenta hues dilated as he kept his mouth shut — worried that anything he'd say would come out as a laughable stutter〝 i wouldn't mind being sick if it means staying with you.. ＂ he muttered aloud in a daze, his features becoming a faint shade of pink as his mind began to wander
themoonlits
" ulrich, i have been quite curious .. what has brought you here? nod—krai is a very secluded region apart from the others, with its separate principles. "
recordkept
⌣̩̩̩̥̩͜⟢ ꠦꫂꯥ⠀ ──── ( @themoonlits ) 〝 doesn't that make you feel lonely sometimes? being on the move so often does mean you don't have much time to settle down after all ＂ he couldn't help but ask. though, he understood that the other must've been long used to living in solitude by now〝 hmm, has there ever been a place that you consider 'home'? ＂
themoonlits
connection,（..）somehow he was indifferent from it. ⠀" no, " ⠀he answered. dull, straightforward. lashes flutter downwards, an attempt to at least recall any sense of even a fleeting feeling or moment of attunement. yet, all he felt was being lost. ⠀" i don't belong anywhere, even in my homeland. it is quite unbearable, but i've learned to live through it. "
recordkept
⌣̩̩̩̥̩͜⟢ ꠦꫂꯥ⠀ ──── ( @themoonlits ) 〝 hmm, i'm honestly not too sure myself (...) though, it always feels like there's some sort of connection that pulls me back here so often. have you ever had that feeling yourself? ＂
themoonlits
" have you heard of the white horse adeptus? "
themoonlits
" i still am. but it's becoming quite tedious. no one truly knows of their whereabouts. i can only presume by intuition alone, but that won't take me anywhere else would it? "
recordkept
⌣̩̩̩̥̩͜⟢ ꠦꫂꯥ⠀ ──── ( @themoonlits ) 〝 only heard a few stories here and there about them. weren't you on a search for that adeptus? ＂
themoonlits
" the thing is... i don't have anymore mora... "
recordkept
⌣̩̩̩̥̩͜⟢ ꠦꫂꯥ⠀ ──── ( @themoonlits ) the ship of ulrich's them and his crew were currently boarded on smoothly glided over the ocean's waves. thankfully, today happened to be a perfect day to sail about, which the captian himself was grateful of〝 it shouldn't be long until we get there. and speaking of, you never really elaborated on where exactly you're trying to go. we have the time to spare and chat if you don't mind us talking about it ＂
themoonlits
" if you insist, thank you. i'll pay you once i get enough mora to settle it. " ⠀a short nod, ⠀" may i ask how much longer till we arrive? "
themoonlits
" oh? i don't notice the trails of bamboos myself.. perhaps it's from my vision? haha, dendro visions tend to do that. "
recordkept
⌣̩̩̩̥̩͜⟢ ꠦꫂꯥ⠀ ──── ( @themoonlits ) 〝 they're surprisingly sturdy for being able to dissipate ＂ he commented while examining one of the bamboo, curiously running his fingers along it〝 and i'm fine thanks to you! those abyss creatures were the wild hunt. they're a lot more troublesome to deal with around here compared to your regular abyss encounters. you didn't get hurt yourself, right? ＂
themoonlits
" indeed. though i'm sure they dissipate after sometime... so you won't get hit. " ⠀a small smile. ⠀" are you hurt? i am not sure why those fiends from the abyss suddenly went berserk.. "
recordkept
⌣̩̩̩̥̩͜⟢ ꠦꫂꯥ⠀ ──── ( @themoonlits ) 〝 haha, if i wasn't paying attention enough, i'd have gotten hit by one of them! and if anything, the bamboo makes it easier to tell where you are or were at the very least ＂
