even when the path seems unsteady, keep moving forward.
( her smile grew, almost cheeky now as she leaned in. turning just enough that her lips lightly grazed that of jingliu's thumb. ) as if i'd wanna be anywhere else...
🌙Jingliu❄️@oflunarblade.bsky.social · last mo.(Smiling gently, rubbing her thumb over Baiheng's cheek) Indeed, you are stuck with me, too~
( it really did ground her too, the feeling of jingliu's hand upon her cheek. she leaned into it almost greedily, not caring about the coolness of it. it was her, that was what felt so inviting about it. ) mm... i believe you, 灵魂伴侣. you're stuck with me this time, huh?
🌙Jingliu❄️@oflunarblade.bsky.social · last mo.(Her expression softened as Baiheng caught herself, reaching out to gently touch her cheek again, a comforting and grounding motion) We won't lose each other this time, I swear to you.
× guys i know oomf already made a black swan to torment me lovingly, but should i bring her over here too...
( the comfort that she experienced from this, from being able to fall back into this pattern like nothing, like time and hardships couldn't have changed anything. it made the sting of understanding what had happened hurt a little less, and she felt lighter as the two made their way on. ) . . . heh.
☄ 应星 @soaringcomet.bsky.social · last mo.A laugh escaped him, warm and genuine, as his arm squeezed around her shoulders. It was an old gesture, one that came back to him almost instinctively now that she was once again at his side. "Still as confident as ever, I see, and I would be a holy fool to doubt you."

well, i think your life should be just as important. i'd hate to- ( lose you. she almost said it aloud, but the realization that jingliu HAD lost her once made her throat tighten. . . . what a selfish thing that would've been, saying that aloud. )
🌙Jingliu❄️@oflunarblade.bsky.social · last mo.Of course. You are someone more important to me than my own life. (Smiling gently. The idea that she could have a chance at a future with Baiheng, after everything, was something she would accept.) I missed you too, Baiheng.

× redoing my pinned (i like the gif i used on twit better)
× sorry if i seem pretty not talkative and upset, i'm gonna try to not let it get me down because its fuckin x dot com for crying out loud but man. i'm fuckin bummed.
× i love that i make a baiheng on twit and it survives 23 hours before it's taken out back and shot dead thanks great app over there
( that one caught her completely off guard--- but now she's snorting into her fist and fighting for her life through giggles- )
× sighs in heavily debating making that belle account......
( the gesture itself was something she'd needed so badly it almost hurt; she could feel that warmth, that tightness, once again settling in her chest, and she found her head falling against his shoulder with ease. it really did feel like nothing had changed, like the years countlessly spent in her
☄ 应星 @soaringcomet.bsky.social · last mo.(By rights, neither of them should be here, at least ... not as they currently stood, two ghosts of the past haunting the present with little sense to be made of it, how it had come to be.) Far too long, indeed.
for me, definitely not. i could use thousands more hugs like that, i'm afraid. ( but she also knew things had changed; of course they had. the fractured bits of memories she'd been subjected to-along with the man standing before her-made that abundantly clear. but then the offer of a drink was
𓉸@ashenrebirth.bsky.social · last mo.would it really be so bad .ᐣ ⧼ he’d entertain the thought , wearily dragging finger—pads over tear stained cheeks . he can’t help the way the sight draws out a laugh , light . as if the weight of centuries worth of regret no longer rest upon his shoulders . ⠀ ↷
just as protective as i remember. ( her smile became crooked then, baiheng relishing in a past that had been cut short, and now in a future that was of their making. sure, things had changed a good bit.. but she wouldn't let that stop them. ) i'm sure it's pretty obvious, but... i've missed you.
🌙Jingliu❄️@oflunarblade.bsky.social · last mo.Good... I won't let them take you from me this time. (Even if she had to tear everything apart, she wasn't going to let Baiheng slip from her grasp again. But for now? She was content to be close to the Foxian again, just enjoying this peaceful reunion.)
× in training so i'm gonna lurk in my replies and try not to froth at the mouth, please excuse me-
heh, auntie... haven't heard that in a really long time... . . . you've really grown up, huh? i'm really happy to see you.
( that was certainly a sentiment they shared; baiheng couldn't shake the worry that something drastic would change and take her away. she didn't think she'd be able to handle it herself, being ripped away from them all again. not now, not when she'd finally found her way back... but then he
☄ 应星 @soaringcomet.bsky.social · last mo.(His hands remained on her face long after there was any practical reason to, as though he needed the confirmation that she was really there—that this was not some magnificent delusion—before eventually slipping down to rest atop her shoulders.)
dan heng's tone had her fully focused on what he was explaining, not that she hadn't been from the start; it was one thing to have third party knowledge of what occurred back then, but it was another to have someone who had to experience it willing to give her more of the parts she couldn't see. she
丹恆@hymnusnubis.bsky.social · last mo.".... Bailu and I are.... Connected. In a way. And because of it, along with her being the first Vidyadhara born after several millennia without new offspring, I'm.... Protective." Everything about Bailu is complicated to explain- a struggle to figure out the deep-rooted and insticntive feelings +
it's the only place i want to be. don't worry, as long as either of us can help it... i'm here. ( it was a promise, one she would do everything in her power to ensure remained intact. being this close to her again, to be able to feel her after so many years apart... it was a weight off of her chest
🌙Jingliu❄️@oflunarblade.bsky.social · last mo.Mh, indeed... We have a lot of catching up to do. (Jingliu leant closer, a soft hum leaving her as they pressed their foreheads together. A warmth in her chest, something she hadn't felt in so, so long. Baiheng was back within her reach, something she'd never expected in all these years...)
