AMONG LOTUSES.

nine tried to convince me to come back, and i think that instead of revamping i will just remake. there are other muses i would like to write, and i don’t have the energy to keep them on separate blogs.

          & ` beacon, you say ? ` li made a small inquisitive noise, tilting his head. ` curious choice. why there instead of haven ? how long have you aspired to be a huntsman ?  ` @silentlxtus liked.

          & ` come here my dear ! ` an was a flurry of cherry - blossomed wonder, of spinning silk and bright eyed joy as she moved to hug the young girl. ` you’re a dear friend of ren’s, so quite welcome our lovely village. please, the reconstruction efforts of kuroyuri mean our house right now is small and humble, but please make yourself at home. ` @petalfates liked.

          & ` ren quite loves the cat bread that they used to sell in the village bakery. they would fill it with ren bean, or lotus paste with whipped cream. it’s a nice thing to give him when he feels sad, but you didn’t hear it from me. ` an winked. @overrcharged liked.

          & ` please feel free to tell me if ren’s been giving you a hard time as of late, my dear. ` an smile was cheerful, and mischievous, dedicated to digging up any reason to tease at her son. ` i’ll give him a stern talking to. remind him that he can’t blame that smart mouth of his on me. ` @heartbxmbs liked.

          & ` will you be staying in town long ? ` li took up occasional sentry duty at one of the village entrances. they’d learned from the first attack that they couldn’t only rely on the barriers surrounding the village. during the late hours of the night, he often found himself conversing with nocturne travellers. ` this is a nice place, if you don’t mind the reconstruction efforts. ` @wulfriic liked.

         & ` excuse me, young lady. ` approaching the woman with an air of cheer, she waved her down the from the other end of the cobblestone street. ` you look like huntress, i presume ? are you busy as of right now ? ` @fulmiinare liked.

          & ` i didn’t know anyone still knew how to play this game. i’ve only ever played it with members of my old clan. ` elder dragon placed two more cards down, looking up at the young woman. ` they say it originated from solitas, and was very popular among the northern mistrali settlements. ` @teamlarl liked.

          & ` it’s been a very long time, xiǎo shé. how does your father fare ? ` @dragonshct​ liked.

starter call?

even though li was polished up and technically segregated from his clan by the time that ren was born, he still upholds some of the traditions that he grew up with. li and an weren’t married, in fact, they eloped to kuroyuri and were going to move to oniyuri, getting married once the city was finished. they never made it. li is of chinese and japanese descent, the knife that he gave to ren in the battle of kuroyuri was a variation of the kaiken (a long dagger carried around by men and women of the samurai class), and was meant to be a ceremonial marriage gift to an. when a samurai woman married, she was expected to carry a kaiken with her when she moved in with her husband. in the world of remnant, a means of self defence is very important, but he was waiting until oniyuri to give it to her. what ren carries with them now is a promise from their parents that went unfulfilled.
