[wenzhou gave her this cat so i'm saying she's napping with yiguo in
a hotel room. maybe not the hotel room that fei du and her were in before because she figures like. it's occupied. she'll text him to find her in the room mumblesnumber when he's able to. she really is just completely passed out on the bed, hair a tangled mess.]

[ cute...
probably unsurprisingly, fei du has been conspicuously absent this afternoon. luo wenzhou's off hanging out with someone else for a little bit, though, which means he takes the chance to check his phone and immediately come check on shenhe.
there's the sound of the door opening... and when he spots shenhe conked out on the bed, with luo yiguo in tow, he makes a quiet noise and pulls out his phone to take a picture? cute?
and then comes over, kneeling down by the bed and reaching out to gently scritch yiguo on the nose. the cat yawns and starts to wiggle a little in shenhe's arms, and fei du huffs. ]
Hush. Let her sleep.
[ yiguo stretches and ignores fei du entirely, putting a paw on shenhe's face. ]

[she frowns in her sleep, and when she's bonked on the nose by yiguo, she sneezes, and blearily opens her eyes. wah!!!
she stares at fei du like she's trying to remember she is alive. she was super conked out.]
... Oh. Hello.
she stares at fei du like she's trying to remember she is alive. she was super conked out.]
... Oh. Hello.
[ Cute. ]
Should I come back later?
[ yiguo puts his beans on shenhe's cheek and makes the gentlest of cat beans. he is loving being paid so much attention to actually. ]

No.
[she just allows yiguo to paw at her face.]
I would like to spend time with you if you'll allow it.
[she just allows yiguo to paw at her face.]
I would like to spend time with you if you'll allow it.
That'd I'd be so lucky? [ lightly teasing. ] I always would like to spend time with you, darling.
[ yiguo continues petting her face. he likes pets? pet shenhe. ]
How're you feeling? Did Wolfwood come talk to you?
[ yiguo continues petting her face. he likes pets? pet shenhe. ]
How're you feeling? Did Wolfwood come talk to you?
[she scritches yiguo happily enough as he pats her face.
as for that, she just sort of. scrunches.]
Yes.
[:T]

Yes.
[:T]
[ uh oh. ]
That doesn't sound like it went well.

He's angry that I sent a mean message to Livio.
[she clearly does not think it's that big of a deal but. they're... okay, she's just Mad that she got scolded that hard when valerie sent so much more garbage than her.]

[actually yeah i'm just gonna start this off like this: here's an opera. it's from the perspective of someone just watching it!
yeet.
this is a nice one.]
yeet.
this is a nice one.]
[ the way this is in mandarin made me laugh
anyway fei du has seen many a chinese opera in his life, so the storytelling of this is very familiar, and as it carries on and slowly fades out... he's left smiling, expression warm despite the sudden invasion of pig. he remembers that title - the divine damsel of devastation - from a few weeks ago, and instinctively, shifts a little bit to lean closer to shenhe.
light, teasing: ] I didn't realize I was in the presence of a celebrity. [ hee hee. ]

Stop that.
[she says, but her emotions are fond. she reaches for his hand when he leans close. but yeah like liyue is the chinese equivalent in teyvat so she is actually from fantasy china (real).]
Yun Jin did not know I was the Damsel in her tale at first. But I do like this version. [ There are those who know her heart. ]

[ she can take his hand immediately - he doesn't fuss at all, just opening his fingers slightly so she can take his hand, and smiles at shenhe with just a touch of that gremlin to his smile. ]
I liked the continuation quite a bit. [ Cute. ] That number of people is growing and growing, isn't it?
[ of the people that know her. for a moment, there's a slight flicker of his emotions - a feeling of soft, muted pride. ]

[ she smiles, when he says that. ]
It is. I am always surprised at how many understand me. [ ... ] I am glad to see the living again, even if it's like this.

[ cute. the smile's cute! look, she's so happy. ]
I am too. [ a soft measure of fondness, under that static. ] For as few of them that there are left over there that I enjoy talking with, at least.
[ sometimes most of your friends are dead ] But, I'll be glad to get back.

[yeah mood a lot of her friends are dead too but]
It looks like we might actually get to. We had enough points and then some. [a little buzz of happiness. he'll find that she feels... a lot more strongly, now, than before. she used to be muted like him, but what she feels now is brighter.]
... I don't want to leave you, though.

[ weh, cute. he gives her hand a little squeeze, at that.
it's nice, he thinks, just enough to be heard. it's nice, to have friends. a real friend, a new, strange feeling. ]
...I'll miss your company terribly. [ an honest answer. he's gotten used to having shenhe here, and the idea of leaving this place sounds excellent, but... a little bittersweet, too. fei du's not optimistic enough to think they'll all be able to keep in contact. ]

[after the party later she is probably a Little Buzzed.
she will take his hand and ask him if he wants to go for a walk for a bit? she just wants to hang out one last time, because she's scared that even with everybody promising they'll find a way, they won't get to talk again. so. here they go.]

[ he'd love to, is his immediate answer, so. fei du breaks away from the rest, light and comfortable after a few too many glasses of wine, and takes her hand to stride back among the living. ]
I miss our park, a bit.
I miss our park, a bit.
I do too.
[but it's alright. this is okay too.]
... Thank you, also.
[but it's alright. this is okay too.]
... Thank you, also.
[ O: ]
For what?
For what?
For talking to Nahri. [she doesn't know the specifics, but nahri said fei du ratshook her, so.]
[ oh...
his expression warms, and since the emotion sharing is still going, there's a faint feeling of wamrth that goes with it, too. fondness. ]
All I did was tell her how I would've reacted in the same situation, and how badly that went for me. [ he has learned... a lesson ] How did it go?

She tried to tell me that she thought she had to go back to her world, because she thought that it was her responsibility to be a trophy for people to parade around when they wanted, and I told her that she owes them nothing and should come back with me.
[a beat.] I'm not sure why she thought I wouldn't want this. I have not been subtle, I thought.

[ help. it's funny to hear this from shenhe's side - fei du huffs a laugh, eyes crinkling up in fondness. ]
I don't think that's what she thought, really - I spent more time convincing her that the perceived problem itself was that you wouldn't ever give up on her, and that she couldn't ask you to do that.
