Event Twenty-Five.





I'd like to creep into the wood
And see the bonnets blue,
And hear the bluebells ringing loud,
I wish I could -- don't you?





t's another day, another month, and another time for people to show up in the well. You'd better go rescue them! Never mind the fact that you woke up with a flower in your hands.

It's probably fine. Don't mind it at all. It's not like it's hard to ignore a little flower.

(At least, not until the effects start to kick in. Better go rescue the people in the well before they do.)

Oh, right. Even the people in the well have flowers, so... things are going to be a little ridiculous very quickly, when all of those side effects kick in. Have fun!




Welcome to Awash's Twenty-fifth event log, everyone! Further information on this event can be found here at the OOC post. You are welcome to make your own logs and posts for this event!

If there are any questions, please ask them here. Thank you!

Probably.

[ He really can't argue that point. He doesn't have any great big feelings for anything right now. ]

It'll be for the state of the town, right? I don't really care, but it'll be fine.
espritdecorpse: 13 years already (wait for me)

[ He resists the urge to take the fan back, and hit the man repeatedly with it. But this is his fault, after all. He'd given Shen Qingqiu these flowers. Even when he "loved everything," he cared enough to argue back (even if the arguing was inane). Now it's as if nothing matters.

He could take the flowers he'd given back, but... now that he's free of their influence, he recalls how close to fulfilling Quest 67 he'd actually come. If he'd picked one more flower, or been provoked one more time....

Well, there's only one thing left to do. ]


If you don't care about that, then surely you won't care about this, either.

[ He reaches to pluck the flowers from Shen Qingqiu's hair and his hand, all five flowers if he can reach them.


...that's right, five. Because one of the flowers in the man's hair, he can't get to. ]

[ Fuck. It's back to valley-girl time!!

The last flower is the one he started with. It's the one that fills his head with a great amount of love and he just hates it. Really, he can't stress enough that he didn't realize that when he isn't stressing about this or that, and focused on how nice and wonderful everything is -- he can actually be quite an idiot!! What the fuck is that about?! ]


You took them all back, again. You must really like flowers, Wifi.

4/5

[personal profile] espritdecorpse 2019-07-27 06:59 am (UTC)(link)
No! I hate them!

[ He doesn't know why, but for some reason, he just does. Time to set fire to these things. He yanks out a fire talisman from his sleeve and hurls it at the flowers... ]
espritdecorpse: (I won't be able to get married now)

4/4 (the magnolia is making ME stupid)

[personal profile] espritdecorpse 2019-07-27 07:01 am (UTC)(link)
Ow!

[ While he's still holding them.

Because, with this magnolia in his bouquet, he's an idiot. ]

OUR SHARED ONE BRAINCELL DOING ITS BEST

[personal profile] shizun 2019-07-28 02:43 am (UTC)(link)
Oh no.

[ Do something! ]

That's a fire.

[ Oh. My. God. ]

You shouldn't be holding it. [ And he slaps the flowers with his own hand to get them out of Wei Wuxian's. Why is it that when his head is filled with love that he ends up being quite dumb? He wonders what that says about anything -- love is blind, but it also lowers the IQ. Should he say sorry about how Ning Yingying seemed to be a fluffy-headed girl in the original novel now that he understands what it is like?! Probably!! ]

DON'T TOUCH MY FLOWERS!

[ Too late! The flaming flowers (that he hates) are knocked from his hand, to the ground, where they burn to a nice crisp. Now they're a bunch of dead flowers. Well, even though they're dead (and he hates them) they're his flowers, not this idiot next to him. He stoops down right away, and gathers them all up again. ]
espritdecorpse: (soft)

[personal profile] espritdecorpse 2019-07-28 04:31 am (UTC)(link)
[ ...

Now he has a bouquet of dead flowers, exactly what you'd give someone you hate, the perfect symbol of love gone wrong. He looks up, from beneath his lashes, at the exquisite person standing before him. ]


Are you hurt, my love?

[ He reaches out, to take Shen Qingqiu's elegant hand in his, and examine it for burns. ]

[ Ah, shit. ]

[personal profile] shizun 2019-07-28 07:53 am (UTC)(link)
A little.

[ That is kind of what happens when one takes a swing at fire, dumbass!

His hand is taken and the skin is a little red and tender due to shoving his hand in fire. Shen Qingqiu on the inside of his heart is rubbing his face, a lot. ]


... eh? "My love?"

[ Notice this fucking shit sooner! ]
espritdecorpse: (time 2b cool)

[personal profile] espritdecorpse 2019-07-28 06:58 pm (UTC)(link)
[ His face falls at the sight of the man's reddened fingers ]

I've hurt you. I'm so sorry.

[ He fixes Shen QIngqiu with the most apologetic and regretful of looks. And then, tenderly: ]

I'll kiss it and make it better.

[ Lips puckered, he lifts up Shen Qingqiu's hand. ]
shizun: (pic#12848079)

[personal profile] shizun 2019-07-28 07:52 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Well. This is fucking happening. ]

Will it? I don't think so --

[ But he still allows his hand to be kissed. If he were himself, he would feel goosebumps run down his back. This isn't the sort of situation that should be done in public, or privately!! Especially to him!! Hello!? ]

You didn't hurt me. You almost hurt yourself! Isn't that different?
espritdecorpse: (jin ling why)

[personal profile] espritdecorpse 2019-07-29 02:38 am (UTC)(link)
[ He kisses each of the man's five fingers with utmost delicacy, like dragonfly touching water. Then, reluctantly, he lets go. ]

Of course it's different. If I've hurt myself, it's fine. I'll get better. But hurting you...

[ He'd been gazing into Shen Qingqiu's eyes, but now he looks away. His voice goes hoarse. ]

...I can hardly live with myself. The last thing I'd ever want, is to cause you pain.
shizun: (pic#12879960)

[personal profile] shizun 2019-07-30 03:42 pm (UTC)(link)
[ Why must a straight man like myself be in this situation? Did I do something in my past? I really shouldn't say something like that so brazenly when I know exactly what I did. But at the same time... this really is just too much!

But if it is between this strange karma situation and being cut into a stick, he'll take the former! Gladly! Not gladly! But he'll take it! ]


There's nothing fine about you hurting yourself.

[ He reaches out to take Wei Wuxian's hand. What are we? ]

There's nothing fine about it!

[ Like, yeah, I agree. But the setting for these kind of words... does it have to be like this? ]

So, if you say you don't want to cause me pain, then... don't let yourself be hurt.
espritdecorpse: (soft)

[ When his hand is taken, he looks up... and visibly melts at those kind words. ]

A-Qiu... you really do care.

[ He exhales, a sigh of perfect happiness. And then he steps in, nearer to the man, letting his eyelids drift down and his head tilt to one side.... ]

espritdecorpse: (wtf)

[personal profile] espritdecorpse 2019-07-31 01:42 am (UTC)(link)
[ His brain, which has been asleep in the hay the whole time the flowers have been pulling this ox-cart along, suddenly rouses.

What.

What the.

What the fuck is going on?

Am I trying to kiss this guy now? I mean, we had a bunch of frogitis kisses, little pecks that didn't mean anything, but I'm going for a real kiss now!

[personal profile] espritdecorpse 2019-07-31 01:48 am (UTC)(link)
[ His bouquet of dead flowers, of course, doesn't care one bit about his reservations, merrily dragging the ox-cart careening off a cliff, as his cheeks flush pink and his arms come up to encircle Shen Qingqiu's neck, on purpose to plant (yet another) kiss on this poor guy. ]

[ Shen Qingqiu wonders what he has done to deserve -- wait, every time he says he wonders what he did, he finds out that he has many examples! It's best to just say, "Oh well."

As if!! No way!! Who is to blame here?! Who caused this?! He's beyond tired!! And none of this is fair!

But this is platonic!! PLATONIC!! A totally platonic kiss!! They've kissed over thirty-one times, so one more doesn't mean anything! It is just how it is! Two bros. Little bro Wifi! That's it! ]
shizun: (pic#12801847)

[personal profile] shizun 2019-07-31 05:52 pm (UTC)(link)
[ His airhead self that's full of love receives a kiss and only smiles about it!

He lets out a single muffled laugh as he hugs Wei Wuxian tight around the shoulders. Totally platonic! ]
espritdecorpse: (this little shit)

1/3

[personal profile] espritdecorpse 2019-08-02 03:45 pm (UTC)(link)
[ After the kiss, he melts into the embrace, sighing happily. ]

We'll always be together...
espritdecorpse: (if you want something done right)

[personal profile] espritdecorpse 2019-08-02 03:46 pm (UTC)(link)
[ And then the flower-addled part of him remembers... ]

Except... no, that's not true. We'll have to part one day.

[ ...that Shen Qingqiu had invited him back to his own world, but he'd had to refuse. ]
espritdecorpse: (braying)

[personal profile] espritdecorpse 2019-08-02 03:47 pm (UTC)(link)
[ His real self is sincerely sad about perhaps having to bid farewell forever to Shen Qingqiu one day, and this combines with this effect of the flowers. And so the tears begin to fall. ]

A-Qiu, I d-d-d-don't want to lose yoooooooou!
