I do wonder if it is odd to be excited about someone else's marriage as much as I am.

[pyrafect]

(＾▽＾)

I know, right? While we still don't have an actual date, that it's happening at all makes it all the more incredible!

I can't imagine what it must be like to find someone you truly love in another world... and them loving you in return.

[ She's glad that there is a screen here hiding her actual expression. ]

[shizun]

I agree.

[ It seemed like there were a lot of hurdles for the two to overcome. But he's happy that it has ended as it did. Though, he doesn't know everything that happened in the background but it really warms the heart to see it come through the way that it did. ]

This teacher also cannot imagine that such a situation must be like. [ He is smiling, however. ] But being in love, finding love, those things are stuff we naturally come across. Even if you can't imagine it now, I'm certain one day it will happen for you.

This is the sort of thing that gives hope, ah?

[pyrafect]

[ Her response takes longer than it would normally. At long last she can say that she let go. ]

It does, and it's inspiring because of how extraordinary it is for love to happen between two people who are from entirely different worlds. It reinforces how connected we all are.

These two especially.

Thank you, for your words. I am indeed blessed enough to be able to love others.

[ But the opposite? It seems that's not for her. ] And for that, I am content.

[shizun]

It does, yes. People weren't meant to be alone.

[ He is really filled with fluffy feelings. Really, he never thought of himself as someone who got all sentimental about other people's weddings. But then, again, he doesn't think of himself as such a soft-hearted person to care about every single wedding that happens to occur around him. He cares about this one since he likes Xie Lian and Wei Wuxian so much. That's all! ]

To be able to love others and only that? [ Hold on! He isn't keen on that answer! ] This teacher isn't content with that, however. Not only do I want to see those two happy, I want to see those I care about to be more than content.

So as blessed as you are in being able to love, I would like to you to be even more so by being loved and experiencing that happiness.

[pyrafect]

[ She is definitely not about to talk about this over a public network, so: ]

What sweet sentiments! (∩_∩) That's really kind of you to say.

Of course, my heart is always open. As I believe, many others are too. That's what makes it vulnerable, however, and admirable that these two took that daring leap to confess to each other. [ Yes, shifting the conversation away from her. She's very good at that. ]

So I hope that you feel the same way, about finding love as well.

[shizun]

You're welcome.

[ He smiles a little relieved at the response that he gets. Sorry, he's the kind of person that said a lot of shit on forums and sometimes got personal. Which he recreated her in his first post. Why is he like this? The world may never know! ]

It is very admirable that they chose to take such a step. I hope this will be something that will give others courage to take more leaps in the future. [ Love is in the air and he hope it catches. What! He's someone that loves harem novels so of course he is all about romance!!

But oh? Him? ]

Finding love for myself? Ah, maybe one day. [ HAHAHAH!!! HAHAHA... ahaha...aaaaaaaaaaaaa!! ]

[pyrafect]

[ Listen if they can talk about making a birth date for Pyra at another person's birthday party, they can talk about love under a post about others' wedding! ]

"Maybe one day"?

[ Mister, that ain't good. ]

If I didn't know better, I'd say you sounded disillusioned just now.

[ He can absolutely bet that behind her computer screen, she's doing that little cant of head, accompanied by a soft smile. ]

[shizun]

Disillusioned? Not at all.

[ If it were anyone else, he would start saying that he is an old man and not spring chicken anymore. But won't that sound hypocritical when she's also immortal like him! ]

What makes you say that?

[pyrafect]

[ Welp, she’s basically stated in this thread that she’s fine with just loving others... How terrible would it be, for someone to feel something for her when she might hurt them in the end? He’s told her he loves her as a friend, and that’s already enough guilt!!

Having friends is nice and all, but she can’t help be think she’s betraying them all, not letting them know her true nature.

She has to tell him sometime. To give him the full picture... to tell him he’s wrong. ]

*I’m* not the immortal one who has a whole mountain of disciples that adore him. :P

[shizun]

A whole mountain? That's too much.

[ They're just good kids! They're just good kids that are quiet and respectful to their teacher! That's all!! Saying that they love him is way too much! He's the one that adores them, okay!? ]

[espritdecorpse]

[ .................................down to the next thread a certain house in bluo. Sorry to break up your little chat about love, buddy, but there's somebody very insistently KNOCKING ON YOUR DOOR. ]

Open up, I know you're in there!

[holycurse]

[And while Wuxian's busy knocking...Xie Lian's gonna nag a bit.]

Could you please just tell me what your idea is before you run off to act on it? What are we doing here exactly?

1/?

[shizun]

[ Cheese it!

It's the first thought he has when he hears Wei Wuxian's voice. Talking nicely about a marriage between him and Xie Lian is one thing (because, let's face it! he's a sucker when it comes to romances and love and finds that fluffy stuff to be really wonderful! he'll admit it, okay!?) -- but seeing Wei Wuxian in the flesh after seeing him in the flesh is another!

If he had a cup, he would have smash it on the ground to make following him that much more difficult as he tries to scoot around to a window to hop out of it. ]

[shizun]

[ He is halfway out the window, before he hears Xie Lian's voice.

Wait. What? ]

[shizun]

[ ................... ]

[shizun]

[ He takes a long look down the street.

Then he looks back into the house.

He looks back down the street.......

He carefully slides back into the house. ]

/done

[shizun]

[ As he opens the door, he clears his throat. ]

That is hardly the way to get the attention of the person that you plan on visiting, Wifi. [ Lightly tugging on the sleeves of his robe, he straightens his posture as he goes full bullshit-mode. ]

Still ... it is a pleasant surprise to see you two. [ Shen Qingqiu smiles in his usual poised and elegant way. ] To what do I owe the honor?

1/2

[espritdecorpse]

[ Under his breath, to Xie Lian: ]

You'll see. Follow my lead.

2/3

[espritdecorpse]

[ When—after a while—the door opens, he straightens up and flashes Shen Qingqiu with his usual bright smile. ]

Hi hiiiiii! Maiden Pyra tells me that you've been helping her plan our wedding!

[ He settles an arm around the shoulders of "dearest wife," looking for all the world like a happy groom, radiant in the throes of love. ]

So, I just wanted to say...

[espritdecorpse]

...how can you be so shameless!

[ He (rudely) points at Shen Qingqiu, bristling all over with righteous indignation. ]

You're the reason we can't get married!

[holycurse]

[wait what

Xie Lian looks back and forth between his "husband" and Shen Qingqiu, mouth opening slightly to--he can't think of anything to say actually, he's just gaping a bit. What are you talking about! What's going on! He doesn't know?]

1/?

[shizun]

[ He avoids making a choking sound aloud.

Is it because I saw your pillar?! How does that get in the way of marriage?! ]

[shizun]

[ Wait, he was de-colorized and seriously out of it! He shouldn't remember jack-shit!!

If he remembers all the anime songs he sang, he is going to really move to the castle in the forest! Goodbye, everyone!! My face can no longer be seen around here!! ]

[shizun]

[ Ha-ha, just kidding, I can't leave here. ]
