"I've found that music is a wonderful precursor to forming new friendships."

The setting is evening, by the sea. At a candlelit table with wine overlooking the waves, Aurelius makes his acquaintance with the mysterious royal he'd talked to last.

"It's been quite a while since we've talked, little emperor."

And the Theater of Calliope was generally fun to watch.

"Are you a professional actor, or are you just taking advantage of the open audition night?" He wasn't much of an actor himself, but given it was a route open to him, he did feel generally interested.

❝ It seems that fate has brought you to this place as well! ❞

It's strange to stand before her in the state he's in- stripped of divinity, of his all-encompassing light ⎛ and love, for his love was within the light ⎠ and of his grand authority. He had grown used to that sort of power, the one where his empire of light would shine forever. The one where he held the world in his embrace. It felt like reaching out into the abyss, now. Lonely, but perhaps poetic.

He'd never wanted her to see him like this. He was the Founder King, the Supreme Deity, and yet ... his divine core still pulsed weakly; to destroy it would be to destroy him, but it felt less like divinity and more like a human heartbeat.

The pulse of life, beautiful life.

How romantic.

❝ I am glad to see you here, still radiant as ever. ❞

6. is there any other muse in this fandom you’d like to RP?

if we're talking ToV only, i did consider picking estelle up once upon a time (before realizing i just wanted an excuse to make pink icons lmao).

from the tales series as a whole, i always have pascal creeping in the back of my mind! i also wanna try writing elize (xillia) at some point... once i have motivation...

19. do you have ship bias?

would anyone believe me if i said no?

OKAY FOR REAL ofc i'm inclined toward certain ships as like, a general thing. but it's more so that i find certain dynamics way more interesting than others, especially when it comes to yuri. he's very nurturing and comes across as a brotherly, protective figure to a lot of people he meets in-canon, so i prefer shipping him with character types that don't spark that behavior within him.

bonus points if they aren't afraid to butt heads with him or challenge his worldview. it's a juicy trope...

21. what do you think of your muse’s popular fandom ship?

One of the most important aspects of a good disguise was a convincing wardrobe to go with it. Never one to go unprepared, Wang Yi spends this afternoon shopping for...girls' clothes.

Spring dresses, to be specific. It's a little awkward, but the sect robes are unisex and he looks and sounds like a girl as long as he keeps his magical wig on. He'd rather not use their changing rooms though, so he ends up holding a green dress in front of the mirror to gauge its size.

"Hmm...seems a little short." As he turns to grab a different size, his hand brushes against another reaching for the same thing.

"Whoops, sorry." Blinking at another (smoller) blond, Wang Yi manages a smile and holds out the dress in his hand.

"Uh, did you want a smaller size?" his voice comes out young and girlish.

         dark brows furrowed slightly as jinwoo glanced from the phone screen in his hand to the building in front of him, eyes roaming from the number proudly displayed besides the door back to the screen. they matched—clearly, this was the place "the stars" wanted him to be. to live, like some kind of dormitory. the thought of sharing his space with total strangers made jinwoo's fingers tighten around the phone in hand, agitation flickering across his expression. he'd only ever lived with his family, his dad and mom and sister, in the same house. to reside somewhere else? it felt wrong. this was not the place he should be returning to at night.

    pocketing his phone ( or what was apparently now his phone ), jinwoo continued to frown at the building for a moment before a sigh slipped past his lips. this was only temporary; he would be gone soon, back home, if he had to break the very system itself to do it. that, he promised. except, well—
