[shiftingwinds]

Ah?

[wait, when did this get turned around on her. her gaze flicks from her hand on their chest up to their face, and then back down again.]

What do... I want?

[commedia]

Yes.

[They can't see, but they'll stare at her with those...holes. Yikes.]

What do you want?

[shiftingwinds]

[why is this happening. what even is this thread.

anyway she's staring at her hand on their chest and focusing on that and also their heartbeat because if she looks up and sees their eye holes staring at her she'll probably cry of fear.]

...well, I came here to deal with... the monster you saw in my memory, but...

[commedia]

But...what?

[I DON'T KNOW WHAT IS HAPPENING]

Is there something else you have in mind? [A sigh.] Qingxuan...

[shiftingwinds]

[AAAAAAAAAA CRYSTAL]

...I want to see how everything plays out in this place, first, before I decide.

[commedia]

What a wise god you are. True, one needs to observe, before taking action.

[They hum.]

I hope that whatever it is you want, its close at hand.

[shiftingwinds]

...

[she's quiet for a few moments after that, and when she does speak, her voice is very quiet.]

I hope so, too.

[commedia]

...

[She's silent, and they tighten the grip around her hand just a little more.]

Qingxuan? Are you alright?

[shiftingwinds]

[she squeezes their hand back.]

I'm okay.

[it's kind of them to be worried, though. they're the one injured here? what the heck is even happening.]

...how are you feeling? Hopefully we'll be able to use one of those pods for you, soon.

[commedia]

I'm feeling alright.

[Despite having no eyes.]

Some of the rest had more serious wounds. I can tolerate this! Its better than beheading, haha!

[shiftingwinds]

...did that happen...

[she doesn't know what goes on in cyoas, for all she knows it could have!!]

[commedia]

Well, it happened in my past. With my shikigami bodies, I could decapitate myself with no problem.

[DON'T JUST CASUALLY ADMIT THIS]

[shiftingwinds]

[dOUMAN]

Wouldn't that hurt...?!

[commedia]

Of course, but the reactions are worth it!

[shiftingwinds]

[


she pouts at them and this time does not remember that they can't see her.]

[commedia]

[....]

Let me guess. You're probably frowning at me.

[shiftingwinds]

The correct term is "pouting".

[commedia]

You're pouting! Aaaah, Qingxuan, how cute-!

[shiftingwinds]

[


this binch and her ego. she immediately smiles at that.]

Ahaha, that's true, I'm cute even when I'm pouting!

[commedia]

I wish I could see it...

[Douman and their eye holes...]

I bet your blush is cute, too.

[shiftingwinds]

[stop that.



anyway, she flusters at that, and at a loss for words, she pulls douman's uninjured hand up to her cheek. they can't see her blush, but they can feel it!]

...you'll just have to use your imagination until tomorrow, I suppose.

[ha ha]

[commedia]

[Oh! Douman's mouth opens with surprise, before they grin, cupping her cheek lightly, thumb carressing over the skin.]

How warm you are. Maybe I'll have a nice dream of it while I'm healing. Mmmmm, wouldn't that be nice?

[shiftingwinds]

[her cheek gets even warmer under her hand. aaaa, she played herself here. oh well.]

...if it helps you rest, dream of it however much you like.

[commedia]

Lady Windmaster...

[And a bow of their head, hand trailing through her hair.]

May we dance forever in my dreams.

[shiftingwinds]

[oh!

yeah. she blushes at that, then leans in and kisses their cheek.]

Hurry up and get well, and we can dance for real.
