* up at the stars

“ i don’t know what i did to joker, i don’t know -- “  voice drops, as eyes slowly scan the room; it seemed that everyone had already gone ahead, he can hear eikichi’s voice ring out from down the hall  “  -- know what ‘ sin i committed. ‘  should i ?  “  

with only 15 mins. to spare ...

“ you seemed pretty cool on tv, the sports festival ...  “  hands are stuffed into his pockets, with one finger sticking out around the fabric. all of the excitement in his voice suddenly dissipates, as his eyes widen. “ but in person ? a fucking disappointment.  “  @windanstieg​

ah ! caught her by surprise, accidentally. while her shaky voice reaches his ears, a calm facade is enacted; feigning ignorance for now. jean’s overworked state was too apparent to genuinely ignore -- not that he would ignore something on that scale.  “ only just recently, don’t worry.  “  a harmless lie lips from between his teeth : seemingly ( overwhelmingly ) preoccupied, the acting grand master failed to notice his arrival quite some time in the past. had it not been for the multitude of citizens badgering him with requests to send jean’s way, his arrival time would have been far sooner. those requests will be taken care of at dusk.  “  you should see barbara, you’re ailing. our honorary knight can handle these tasks for now. a moment’s break will not hurt you, i assure you.  “ 

tevyat’s wealthiest ! what a sight to behold ! off of her, an undeniable aura is felt : an aura of strength, determination, & success.  “  i am the one being graced by your presence ... it is an honor to speak with the tianquan of the qixing.  “  as cordial as ever ! as cordial as his father taught him to be. speaking with ningguang felt akin to a business deal, with no room for error. a bad impression would be detrimental.  “  i am here to extend an invitation. a banquet is to be hosted in mondstadt, & attended by the most connected individuals. perhaps this could be a most advantageous business opportunity for you ?   “
