[ the nose twitches towards her hand, and then there's silence - hua cheng glances down, and apparently a look is shared between him and the sniffer, because a crimson orange fox head rises up to be eye level with her. the daemon's about the size of a golden retriever instead of a normal fox (or when it was bigger, tch), and all nine tails flick behind it.
after a beat of staring at her with the right eye closed, he bumps into her hand. you may pet. ]
[ so sometime after...... gestures loudly.... there is a small gremlin staring at her emergency ice cream sundae and regretting the hotels choice of strawberry syrup, cookie crumble and gummy worms ]
[ tanhua hops up onto the seat next to her, hua cheng settling in on the other side. he taps his fingers against the tabletop next to the sundae to request another spoon.
and then he pokes at an untouched side of her massive sundae. ]
[ please say she's spinning in the chair in the middle of the desk, ari.
either way, hua cheng is meandering in, tanhua on his heels, looking to see if he can't flip through the pamphlets for... something. the huli jing lets out a raspy yip in greeting first. ]
[ it makes him laugh softly, and tanhua jumps onto the desk to get into her space. he weighs nearly as much as her but he still is more than willing to become her bond villain pet for a moment. ]
Good, keep that up. I'm afraid I can't join you in that endeavor - I have some research hand arts and crafts to be doing.
[ hua cheng is just vibing in the lobby, apparently opting to work in his stationary pad while he's hanging out. tanhua is the one to greet futaba first, coming over to sniff at her briefly - if she reaches for a pet, he tilts his head up into the touch immediately, right eye remaining closed as he does. ]
How're you feeling? [ he doesn't look up, but instead gestures with his pen for futaba to join him, then returns to his sketching, his cheapy water color set nearby but not open right now. ]
[ tanhua gets his favorite scritches and a smooch on the head for being the best thing about this shit place. fuzzy things makes everything better in her very valid opinion. ]
Eh. [ she crawls into the seat close by, curling up to just watch him work for a minute ] Feels weird to be alive it.
[ imagine if we all just did these on Monday. the sheer headache of constant memories assaulting everyone would mean no one would leave their room all week.
That said though!!! futabs, focused fully on tanhua once again walks through stardust without even blinking. unlike most times, her immediate reaction is delight because wowee!!!! this is exactly the type of chaos she likes to see. she doesn't even know these guys but clearly they deserved everything they got. ]
Was that the gods?! Did you really just 'listen up fives, a ten is speaking' them? That was so cool.
[ that - makes him laugh. he's getting used to the memories just popping up, after otamo would let them avoid sharing previously, but. that's what tuesdays are for. ]
Minus the 33 of them that I wiped out, en. Those were the gods and I very much did do that.
The two yelling when I came to rescue gege from his "grounding" were the only two gods that said no to my challenge, from the original 35 that I'd issued it to.
[ his movements are stiff and slow again, and he looks tired and scuffed up while also being freshly clean, but hua cheng is still here, still out and about.
tanhua doesn't immediately come running to futaba, hovering close to him. but he does let out a little yap. ]
[ heeey stranger, guess who also looks like a truck ran her over, backed up, and then dumped everything in it over her head? but she's also got a massive ice cream sundae with her so who's really winning here?? her smile is probably at 20% power but she still wiggles happily to see them ]
I was buried last night when the lights went out, so, yes. Very terrible.
[ tanhua comes trotting over once hua cheng is close enough that he's not worried about him, nosing at her and returning the wiggle. hua cheng reaches out to stroke the top of her head absently as he carefully sits next to her - affection week. ]
[ SO. the day after that fun little announcement, futaba is grouchily stomping around in a whole mood! wherever fafa is on this journey, once she spots him she swerves, vanishes, and comes back later with two slurpees. one gets thrusted at him while she glowers. ]
[ he accepts the slurpee as it's given to him, patting her on the head briefly despite the whole Mood she's giving off. because she's grouchy but isn't a threat and also because she still brought him something for their treat bonding. "what if it's poisoned?" it's not. ]
Will it help if I say the disguise wasn't meant to be personal, and more just to waste time? I find she's far too smart to leave behind such blatant evidence.
[ it's a disgusting mix of flavors but he willingly eats xl's food so it's fine probably. just cause she's smad, it doesn't mean she wants to actively poison him!! (yet) ]
With the amount of murder while smiling vibes they were all giving off earlier, I don't think that helps at this point. [ and she had to sit there and sweat about it. talk about conflicting emotions!!!! she angrily slurps her feelios ]
[ So Here We Fuckin Are!!! It being Village Week really doesn't help things but futaba has toddles her way over, puffy eyes and all, to keep her favorite ghost king company ]
Here.
[ she brought boba ice cream. you know, for the road ]
