[ he had been about to text, then decided voice messages would be easier for communication using these devices. look, he is learning technology, slowly but surely! ]

A-Qing, are you planning anything this afternoon?

Voice;

[firstkissofsteel]

[SUSPICIOUS. or it would be if it wasn’t XXC talking to her]

Nope, I’m free! I always have time for you, Daozhang!

[mingyues]

Why don't we spend the afternoon out then? How familiar are you with the city? I want to be sure you won't have any trouble if you find yourself alone at any point.

And... I think it is good to give your brother some space while he's recovering.

[firstkissofsteel]

I know how to get to a few places and back home again. [She can get just about anywhere, honestly, but obviously he doesn't know that. Nor does he need to know.] Let's go out!

[The mention of Xue Yang makes her pause.] Ah... Yeah, I guess... [She trails off, considering.] He'll be okay, right? [NOT THAT SHE CARES OR ANYTHING.]

[mingyues]

Are there any places you want to look at in particular? I thought we could get you some more clothes and other things you might like. [ what do girls like? he has no idea...

her question makes him smile, how nice it is to have such siblings caring for one another. shhhh. ]

Yes, of course. Zichen has done his best to fix his wounds and Xue Yang is very stubborn.

[mingyues]

A-Qing have you seen the Archives announcement?

[mingyues]

I do not suppose you would be interested in going...

[mingyues]

Is Moran's home comfortable for you?

[mingyues]

May I ask something
Are my jokes bad?
Some... monkeys threw bananas at me for one

[mingyues]

Stay inside. Stay safe.

post-flood

[mingyues]

A-Qing where are you? Are you safe?
The moonknights are doing their best to settle everything down but
Please be safe.
If you see your brother tell him to behave.

[firstkissofsteel]

[The texts are definitely read, even if not responded to. She’s still grumpy at them all of abandoning her at Moran’s once before, but she doesn’t want to really make him upset. Much. It’s nice he’s checking in.

But...]

if I ‘see’ him?

The monkeys were right, your jokes ARE bad.

[mingyues]

[ he's a disaster but he tries because she's his daughter even if they're almost the same age and she's clearly the one with the brain. ]

Oh...
I meant...


Thank you for letting me know you are fine.
If you hear your da-ge, please make sure he is
That he is

Unharmed. [ she wouldn't make jokes otherwise, right? but he is still stupidly earnest, he takes her words seriously. ]

[firstkissofsteel]

Da ge will be fine. I'll be fine.

Will YOU be fine?

[mysophobe]

Please look after Xingchen. He knows the truth.

Text; UN: little.blind

[firstkissofsteel]

[Oh.

Ooh boy.

A-Qing knew a little about what the ‘truth’ entailed, though she really only knew that he’d been blinded and that he died at some point. She hadn’t wanted to know the details. It still scared her to think of the details, actually.]

What exactly of ‘the truth’. That he was blinded? That he died? Why does he know that now??

[mysophobe]

Everything.

[firstkissofsteel]

Why? Did you tell him? What for?

[She sighs to herself and rubs a hand over her face.]

Well, it doesn’t matter, I guess. Too late to do anything about it now. Where is he now? He’s safe, right?

[mysophobe]

Yes. He is safe

[resurging]

[consider this a declaration of intent: wei wuxian, self-aware and appropriately versed in the comedies of shameless enticement, is inviting one and all (for some measure of all, as he is only one man with two hands) to take part in a little... experiment.]

as the snow thaws,
as new grass springs from the earth,
as the sun rises, warmer—
i offer my hand to hold,
without question,
without judgment.

That guy’s a DAD?

[resurging]

he was sadly widowed at a young age. a terrible tragedy. his beautiful child, left motherless.

[firstkissofsteel]

Who on earth married HIM?

...

Well I guess there’s no accounting for taste among you cultivators. I’m surprised he even knows how to have a kid in the first place. You know, how that all works. He doesn’t look the type.

[resurging]

some fool. an idiot. they must have lost all of their senses. a terrible example for all to witness.

also, that's a mental image i hadn't needed.

[mingyues]

[ delivery! look he won another thing for a-qing. he is maybe trying to apologise for having been such a bad... dad? guardian? older brother? something?

whatever, everything can be fixed by a pegasus ride!!

right?

also buying a house. eventually. ]
