winepouring: pouring wine from a cup (I've learned I can become stronger)

[ When the moons go crazy? Shi Qingxuan giggles, and her tail swings around the back of Shino's legs. That certainly is a surprise! ]

I'm having fun. This whole thing is a little strange, but it's nothing serious. Spending time together for charity isn't the worst thing.

[ It's a heavy subject, but all they can do is move forward. ]

Are you having fun, my Shino?

[ At her angle, and focusing on his face, she can't see the colors shifting on his skin because of her touch. Instead, she thinks of what he says, about it being a way of remembering. The reason this event was held is a somber one, even if Shi Qingxuan hasn't been dwelling on it as such. Well, the event itself isn't exactly draped in the colors of mourning, either.

Still...

She squeezes his hand. ]


It is a way of remembering, but if you dislike the person who's winning your date, just say so and I'll buy your date instead. I don't think anyone is placing bids with ill will, though.

[ She thought this sort of thing could be fun for him, honestly. Shino is friendly, and this is really just a way to meet new people. It isn't as though she really understands the full context of what a "date" implies.

Regardless, she happily moves past all that to the subject of dancing instead. ]


Anyway, even if you didn't expect the dancing, do you dislike it? There's still more food if you'd rather not dance.

[ ...Shifting to press her chest against his arm. ]

But don't you think dancing together sounds fun? And you're already dressed for it...

[ And what are Shi Qingxuan's transgressions here? There are none. So, naturally, her request has to be accepted, pressing her cleavage to his arm/shoulder and all.

Despite that, though, she can't help but be genuinely happy that, despite Shino's grumbling, he's still going to dance with her. If he said no, she wouldn't blame him, but he's not, so—

She beams, closing and tucking her fan into her belt, and takes his hand in both of hers. ]


It's not hard, don't worry! I can lead the way for you.

[ Her tail sways around back to brush the back of his legs before she starts to the dance floor with him. She might not necessarily know how other people are dancing, but she knows how to dance in general, which is just as good. ]

So, shall we? [ Some nice ancient dancing? ]
winepouring: smiling (the thousandth time i've loved you)

[ Letting her have her fill means she's going to be dancing with him for a while. Her movements are graceful and elegant like she's done this countless times before, and she softly feeds him little tips and words of praise as they go. Shino might as well be the stars in the sky with the way Shi Qingxuan looks down at him. This is nice... In all honesty, she wouldn't mind dancing for all the festivals she's missed in the mortal realm while being here in Prismatica.

But she can't wear Shino down like that, and she also didn't miss the way color and points of light painted his skin wherever their hands brushed back there. And so, after leading them back off the dance floor and to a nearly refreshment table, she takes one of his hands in hers again brushes her thumb over his knuckles. ]


Is this new?

[ Petting his knuckles again... It's so pretty, she thinks, but opts not to say. ]

[ Shi Qingxuan wholly and completely doesn't expect Shino to remember any of this impromptu dance lesson beyond the enjoyment they shared of dancing together. The most precious part of this memory for her is the warmth Shino shares with her and the affection she feels between them.

That's the important part.

The other important part is his fun, not new moonblessing. ]


Really?

[ She purses her lips, looking at his hand as she takes it in both of his. He can have the other one for drinking and snacking; this one is hers. Seated on the soft, cushioned benches set aside from the dance floor, there's not much space for two people, but even if there was, Shi Qingxuan would still be sitting nearly hip to hip with him anyway, still holding his hand in her lap. ]

Do you have the stronger lightning magic now too?

[ Which has nothing to do with how pretty his skin reacts to their shared touches, but she is still interested. She's known Shino since he arrived, but she really never noticed that his skin would react like this? But it's so pretty... Ah, but if she knew about this before, she would have definitely wanted to touch him more back then too...so maybe it was safer that she didn't notice.

She thinks all this while idly drawing the outline of a peach blossom on his hand. ]

[ Oh. Her toes curl in her embroidered shoes as she feels the surprisingly pleasant tingle of electricity against her hand and through her skirts. He has this power every time? He has it every time and he never mentioned it?

His smile isn't exactly bright, though, so she restrains her enthusiasm. Of course, if he's affected like this every moon and had to learn how to control a new, potentially dangerous power, she can understand why he's not too enthused.

Though he still showed off what he can do with it when she wouldn't have asked herself, so he must at least be confident in his skills. She lifts her fingertip away to admire what remains of the design on his skin, and even as she moves that hand away, she can still feel the tingle of electricity lighting up her own nerves. ]


I'd say you're very good at controlling it at this point. [ She brings that same finger to brush along the backs of his fingers. As if she'll stop admiring the way his skin lights up. (As if she needs that as an excuse to poke him.) ] I never would have thought this sort of power could feel pleasant, but it really does feel unexpectedly nice.

[ An extra sensation on top of the already comforting feeling that moonlacing brings with it that. ]

Why haven't you mentioned it before?
winepouring: smiling (the feeling of being hurt)

[personal profile] winepouring 2020-05-03 04:37 am (UTC)(link)
[ A playful look plays across her face as she taps this knuckles, wondering if she'll get more reactions.

Though leaning towards her is already a nice reaction. There are nothing but warm and happy feelings here. Shino has that effect, but so does dancing, looking nice, being noticed...and at the moment, she has all of those things, so she's feeling especially delighted. Her tail hugs Shino around the waist with her tail, soft and warm and nearly curling onto his lap. ]


Why not mention something you've been working hard at? It can't be easy to master something that only comes about a few days each month.

[ When she thinks about it, learning how to control the wind wasn't a quick and easy process at all. It took a lot of practice even with all the spiritual devices, tools, and artifacts her brother had given her. Not that this is necessarily the same... He did say "stronger", after all.

Hmm... She prods at his light-up skin again, drawing a swirling (cloudy) pattern over his hand. ]


Or have you been practicing that particular technique for a while?

[ Seeing the shape of dogs in the clouds... Shi Qingxuan wouldn't be the least bit surprised.

But teasing her like that! She just laughs, the mood too good to even pretend to be offended.

And as nice as that gentle buzz felt, it was more a show of his control than a display of the general application of his powers... ]


I see...

[ She starts drawing another cloud. ]

Do you like working with the Moon Knights? You joined at the start of this year, didn't you?

[personal profile] winepouring 2020-05-13 03:11 am (UTC)(link)
[ She lifts her eyes to his face then. ]

You don't mind it?

[ That whole answer is so lukewarm. Maybe it's how relaxed he is, his body leaning against hers as she enjoys reactive quality his skin now has. ]

Do you think you'll continue to work with them?

[ There's nothing accusatory in her soft voice; whatever Shino is feeling, Shi Qingxuan wants to know. And she knows Shino has plenty of feelings. ]

Shino is a noble and caring person. [ Is Shi Qingxuan's comment to that, because it is true. Shino's choices come from a place she can understand completely. With his answer, she feels like she understands why his first response was so tepid, too. ] Wanting to be part of something that protects people is only natural. Even if it's not something you would have chosen in your own world, circumstances are different here.

[ And now she is drawing the outline of a dog on his skin. ]

Do you like working with the people who just arrived on Iris?

[personal profile] winepouring 2020-05-21 04:08 am (UTC)(link)
[ Scoff all you want, Shino, it's still true! He is a kind and noble person who cares deeply and sympathizes easily. A good man!

That said, he doesn't need to say he wants to look out for his family for Shi Qingxuan to know, or at least unconsciously understand, that he wants that. Regardless, she's also fine changing topics - especially if he's going to compliment her!

She chuckles proudly. ]
This is nothing much! Really, Shino...

[ Please feel free to compliment me more! ]

If I had more space, I could draw more, though.

[ But sadly, Shino always seems to prefer these tight-sleeved styles, and with a coat over top, he really won't be able to roll them up... ]

[personal profile] winepouring 2020-05-21 07:28 am (UTC)(link)
[ Shi Qingxuan gives Shino a look in turn, glancing from his face to his hand and back again, before dotting an eye onto the back of his hand. ]

Even if I wanted to now?
winepouring: pouring wine from a cup (you're shining by my side)

[personal profile] winepouring 2020-05-21 08:22 pm (UTC)(link)
[ And a smile. Shi Qingxuan takes his hand in hers and tugs him up to his feet along with her. ]

Then let's go together. Shall we go to your apartment or mine? Or just somewhere private enough?

[ Cordis is a menace on decency. ]
