 professor  soren  fascinates  him  .  quiet  ,  serious  ,  a  mercenary  with  a  mysterious  past  --  they  could  almost  be  the  same  person  .  but  there's  an  anger  that  simmers  under  his  skin  that  byleth  lacks  .  (  though  ,  most  would  say  byleth  lacks  any  emotion  at  all  .  )  it  makes  him  want  to  know  more  ,  to  find  out  exactly  what  has  branded  a  permanent  furrow  between  the  other's  brows  .

how  delightful  !  he’s  considering  your  request  !  given  that  he  doesn’t  seem  to  like  you  much  ,  it’s  somewhat  surprising  .  you  debate  mentioning  that  fact  to  him  ,  but  knowing  vanitas  he’ll  just  get  defensive  and  deny  you  the  pleasure  of  his  company  for  the  evening  .  so  you  smile  wide  and  deliver  your  simple  reason  ------

❛     because  i  want  to  spend  time  with  you  ,  of  course  !  not  that  i  don’t  visit  a  lot  ,  but  you  either  kick  me  out  prematurely  or  noe  and  the  others  are  with  you  ..  can  you  fault  me  for  wanting  to  speak  with  you  alone  ?  i  just  thought  getting  dinner  would  be  the  most  likely  way  to  get  you  to  agree  .  you  may  not  trust  me  ,  vanitas  ,  but  i  really  don’t  have  any  ill  intent  !  i  swear  ,  in  the  name  of  the  lord  ,  i  will  make  sure  it’s  an  enjoyable  time  !     ❜

❝ let me take a look... ❞ (from erhardt)

Barely sparing a moment to consider doing otherwise, Olberic complies with the request, turning himself and moving his hand so that the wound at his side is in view. It’s not too deep, thankfully, but he doubts almost being gored by an aurochs is the kind of wound that he can treat by himself.

“ It... well, it could have been worse. ” He says, dismissively, while also trying to hide the fact that every beat of his pulse makes the wound throb with more pain. Emphasis on trying, of course.

After a few moments, however, he has to move his hand back over the wound in question.

Leaning against a tree, paying no mind to the muzzle that bumped his side once, twice, before Little Apple started to munch on grass close by; Wei Wuxian felt like death.

Which was oh so ironic, considering how very dead he had been until Mo Xuanyu called him back. He would worry his soul was being harmed, but all the cuts had vanished, the sensation of the ritual gone.

So why did he feel like his head wanted to split open, like his body might combust at any moment?

It took Wei Wuxian a few seconds to notice the sound of someone, the crack of twigs, the bushes that were moved through, and he lifted his head, straightening a bit, blinking to chase the sharp edges of pain enough to put a fake startled expression.

When his grey eyes landed on the person that emerged a few feet from him, his wide eyes, his startlement, the shock he barely managed to stop from showing in time, they were all genuine.

word  has  spread  fast  ,  as  it  should  ,  about  the  legitimacy  of  your  predicament  .  people  have  been  on  edge  ,  but  as  far  as  you’re  aware  there  have  been  no  other  incidents  regarding  people  from  your  time  ------  it’s  just  you  .

so  it’s  no  surprise  you’ve  had  to  travel  to  other  clans  and  explain  yourself  .  it’s  bothersome  ,  but  necessary  .

❛     nie  huaisang  .     ❜  hands  clasping  together   ,  you  greet  him  formally  ,  then  rise  to  face  him  .  you  hadn’t  expected  him  to  become  sect  leader  ------  but  you  suspect  he  might  not  have  had  much  of  a  say  in  the  matter  .  ❛     you’re  one  of  the  first  familiar  faces  i’ve  seen  .     ❜

besides  jin  guangyao  ,  of  course  ,  but  he  doesn’t  count  because  you  hate  him  .

SEND ME 💕 AND I’LL SAY ONE THING I ENJOY ABOUT YOUR WRITING AND/OR MUSE!!

         It is not difficult for you to notice the difference in the way your young master is moving. He is much slower and less energetic, his stride less than what you are used to seeing from him. From there it is only a short moment until you notice his limp, and you do not hesitate to take action. 

            It is only a matter of a few swift movements before you have lifted the young master from the ground, holding him carefully in your arms. You shake your head slightly, causing your hair to shift so that it is no longer in your face.

such a grave statement    /    coming from the one sinbad adored as his pillar ,   the compass he had needed to get across the seven seas     :     the shaky hands and compromised expression left him flabber - gasted for a brief moment ,   before he grasps them within his own    /    a rough finger pulp gliding over the smaller hand in an attempt to ease ,   to comfort     :             “  …   i know it’s frustrating.  ”            ja’far was no covetable company when losing his composure ,   but they had seen enough of each other    /    jabbed at hearts with knives and words alike for sinbad to not be afraid anymore.         the scent of white lilies right outside his office window was carried inside ,   the breeze as gentle as his smile.        he had been munificent with their business partners     :     but his generosity knows limits too ,   especially towards people who could pay for it either way.
