Is there anyone that has any skill at fixing walls? I fear that one became damaged during the chaos. It does not feel right to leave it partially ruined.
[ Especially since it pretty much has a Shen Qingqiu hole in it due to him being punched into said wall. Sigh!
But hm, moving away from that for a second, he thinks he can finally talk about something while having it sound like "nothing." Idle wondering of a mind getting used to this place! ]
This is a different thread all together. Sometimes, fate says that there is nothing that can be done in order to save one person. And sometimes, you must be the one to bring harm to the person you cherish. But still, you would like to hope even if you were the one to hurt them that they'll grow strong and happy one day, right?
[ If this is something that everyone can read, then... then! ]
The stories that we create for ourselves need not be tragedies if we do not let them be. Even if there is that moment, it can still end well. [ Holy fuck, does he hope that it will! ]
Anyway, the wall is still a problem so I'm hoping for a happy end for that, too.

2/2
I'm not sure I can carry this and you all the way back, without releasing my Limiter... [Which means possibly no flying. ugh.]
1/2
no subject
[ His fan opens to cover the lower half of his face. ]
The choice seems clear to me what you should do.
no subject
She presses a hand to her cheek and beams at him.]
Yeah! I should launch this boulder in the direction of town and then we can go pick it up from wherever it landed, right?
[1/2]
no subject
Take the boulder back to the house and place in the hole.
[ One hand over his chest. ]
This teacher will follow after you.
[ Best add that so I don't get thrown! ... fuck, I miss my sword. I really wish I had it. Even though I'm terrified of heights, I don't mind sword-flying! It's because like it's so cool! It's so cool!! If it wasn't so fucking cool I would die!!
Ah, well, at least I still have my fan. ]
no subject
[The forest isn't always safe and she's worried. Now she kind of wishes she'd brought Minamoto's phone with her. But this whole thing had been pretty spur of the moment so she hadn't done that.] I could always bring the boulder back then come back for you after.
no subject
[ He lifts his hand and dismisses the concerns. Wave bye-bye to them. ]
We went over what I am, and so there is nothing to be concerned about. [ There is PLENTY to be concerned about. This whole fucking forest feels fucking awful to me. I have no idea what the fuck is wrong with it! I can't call it evil energy but it feels just wrong! WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG WRONG! ]
This teacher would rather you go back to fix the hole first. I will be fine.
no subject
[She is not above throwing his words back at him!
She's been here long enough that she automatically distrusts the forest.] The way this forest works...it's safer not to be on your own here.
no subject
A compromise. You go and place the boulder in the hole. This teacher will wait here in mediation.
[ He feels kind of excited!! Every time he has tried to mediate in the past something interrupted! Now he can finally do it!! He can do it!! Nothing can stop him! ]
no subject
Okay. [But she doesn't look particularly happy about it.] I'll be back as soon as I can.
no subject
[ Meditation! Meditation! Finally, I can cultivate in peace! I'm high up enough that there shouldn't be any problems!! The chill in the air is good to help focus away from the environment, too! Why didn't I think of this sooner! Meditation!!
He feels like this is a little bit of a reward, honestly. ]
no subject
[But there's nothing for it. She carries the boulder higher from the ground and she's about to head off but pauses.]
Be careful if a weird fog starts rolling in. That's usually the first sign something is about to go wrong.
[Then she leaves with the boulder. Flying like this is slower than earlier when it was just the two of them. But they're not too far, all the same. After all, this place wasn't exactly very big. She really hopes he'll still be fine when she gets back.]
no subject
[ A warm smile as he looks around -- ah! He walks to take a seat down on the ground in a lotus position. Breathing in, he closes his eyes as he feels the giddiness rise in him. Meditation. Nothing is going to get in the way this time.
It's odd to go from regretting and once more feeling the deep wound in his heart about Luo Binghe to cheerfully praising his luck to on being able to meditate. But it's easy for him. It's because he keeps burying that pain as soon as it surfaces and covers it up with flowers and other dressing. He buries it and smiles about little things that do and don't make him happy. Because there's nothing to do about what he has already done except wait.
And so, he waits. ]
no subject
Then she heads back, more quickly than she left. She didn't have the wait of the boulder, after all.
You'd expect that, when she returned, she'd try to scare him or something. But no, he said he'd be meditating, right? Then she won't bother him. (Though if she hadn't know she definitely would have tossed a small pebble at him or something.)
She does breathe a little sigh of relief when she returns and finds that he hasn't been kidnapped by sirens or eaten by banshees.
She'll sit down (in the air) and wait to be acknowledged.]
[1/3]
A mental block, huh? It seems like even when he's able to meditate, he isn't able to meditate. He clicks his tongue and decides that he shouldn't push it. Forcing a meditative state and focusing of qi is the quickest way to qi deviation! No fucking thank you!
When he opens his eyes -- ]
no subject
no subject
You've returned safely. This teacher is glad.
no subject
But also, he was lucky he opened his eyes then because while Kaoru wants to be thoughtful she's also incredibly impatient. She was already idly juggling pebbles in the air over her head and at any moment she could have started (gently) tossing them at him.
But well, that didn't happen and she'll never admit that she would have done something like that so!
Worry from adults shouldn't catch her so off guard, she thinks. Especially not after being here for so many months already. Still, she's used to all the adults around her believing that she was stronger than most threats (even Minamoto, who did worry about them often, had faith in them enough to not worry so often). When she was younger and determined to be strong, she would have been a mix of embarrassed and annoyed.
But after a brief second of surprise, she just smiled.]
I'm glad you're safe too and didn't get carried off by a bear or something.
no subject
[ Holy fucking shit, that was a punch to my fucking heart. He rises up out of his lotus position. Brushing off the snow from his robes, he lets out a small sigh. Guess I can't keep wearing these. Only special mission times. Wearing modern clothes while maintaining my uh, self. It'll be interesting. But thankfully, he's so practiced at it that he feels even when he was wearing his wolf outfit that he came off quite elegant. ]
It seems everything went well. [ He wants to cry. He doesn't want to go flying. Where is his taxi driver?! Where is Liu Qingge! That demolition duty commander and chief!! How could he leave him like this?! ] And when Keigo comes to ask what is going on with the boulder, I promise to be with you. We can apologize together.
[ Shen Qingqiu holds his hand out to her, willing himself to remain calm as he prepares to fly back to his house. ]
no subject
[But it wasn't about that. The first time she went with the forest exploration group she and her group nearly got eaten by banshees. She's used to erring on the side of caution.
But enough of that.]
If he asks. [Even if she's actually kind of touched. He really had no need to apologize with her. It was, after all, all her fault.
She doesn't hesitate to take his hand, before picking him up with her powers as well.]
no subject
[ He resists to say: Probably. ]
When he asks.
[ Seriously! There is a boulder in our house! How blind and -- unobservant do you think he is!! Shen Qingqiu almost said 'stupid' but he feels like even defending Keigo's honor that he shouldn't use the word in his thoughts. It feels a bit mean.
He resists crying once again as he is lifted up into the air. He also resists wrapping his arms around her waist because a) that's very inappropriate, don't ever do this and b) despite everything he's shown, hasn't he also shown to be a very unreliable adult and that would just deepen that impression?? ]
no subject
...also, one day he should realize that she could easily fly nearer to the ground. But since he's not saying anything, she's taking them high into the air.]
Let's get back to town before we meet any bears!
no subject
He at least would have his feet on a sword and feel secure on it. WELL! It was a very safe feeling even if he didn't like being in the air! This doesn't feel safe! It doesn't. His hand tightens its hold on hers. ]
Right. Let us get back quickly. [ WHY THE FUCK DO I SAY ANYTHING! ]
no subject
Ah well. That was a question for another time.
She grins.]
Your wish is my command~!
[And that's all she says before they're shooting off again! Just as quickly as the last time! Still no wind resistance at least.]
