[ he sounds miserable about it so you can just imagine what they experienced. ]
Mm, I don't mind. The story of Fenghuang was the basis of my tale. The legendary immortal phoenix who hides from the darkness until prosperity returns to the land.
[ a beat ]
Or, a giant murderous chicken who made me his gopher until I told him to go suck a rotten egg.
Fenghuang nearly killed Fei Du instead but I summoned the dragon that had been stalking me for multiple lives that was probably Binghe to eat the sun and he tore a hole through the storybook instead to send us to Baba Yaga.
[ it's truly a question of is sqq still a little high and giggly at this point. ......probably! ]
Mmhm, we danced among the royalty in honor of the Prince's wedding- though, thinking about it we should probably consider it his funeral instead- Lambda is so valid. She can do what she wants.
Baba granted our wishes for the story. Though not all of them were happily ever after.
A curse, for the prince to sleep for all eternity. But at the same time, there was a dragon who followed me after a moment of stupidity. It strongly reminded me of him, and it's very likely somehow he was joined together just as Fenghuang bonded with me.
[ there's a wry smile there because well. unsurprisingly ]
There is also the fact that it killed me many times. Fitting I suppose.

These little side adventures are quite draining on an old man.
no subject
I still don't think you're that old, Shizun-san.
... do you want to talk about it?
no subject
If you add this adventure to the count, then I really am far older than you think.
[ ugh what a mess. he sighs so wearily ]
......Happy endings truly are a difficult thing.
no subject
Did... time distort?
[that part he understands a little,]
... I'm not sure I follow about the happy endings.
no subject
I looped time over and over again while trying to find the perfect ending to the fairytale we were trapped in.
[ he... grimaces a little? ]
Fairy tales? It's truly a confusing mixture of myths and stories.
no subject
... is this related to Ge-san's memories...?
Were you... able to find one? A happy ending, I mean.
no subject
[ is he calling gerard a mess??? maybe ]
But no. Though, frankly to no ones surprise, a perfect end just doesn't exist. At most a content end is the jackpot, if you're lucky.
no subject
I guess... that is life.
[ . . . ]
What was your tale like? Is it okay... if I ask?
no subject
Mm, I don't mind. The story of Fenghuang was the basis of my tale. The legendary immortal phoenix who hides from the darkness until prosperity returns to the land.

Or, a giant murderous chicken who made me his gopher until I told him to go suck a rotten egg.
no subject
what???/]
.... the phoenix was your bad boss? Is that what it was?
no subject
It told me to kill Fei Du and I told him to go fuck himself with a barbecue skewer.
no subject
[colorful language but sure buzen will roll with it]
... and how'd that go...?
no subject
Fenghuang nearly killed Fei Du instead but I summoned the dragon that had been stalking me for multiple lives that was probably Binghe to eat the sun and he tore a hole through the storybook instead to send us to Baba Yaga.
[ :sparkle: ]
no subject
... sounds exciting! Um. Is that the Baba Yaga that Lam-san mentioned?
no subject
Mmhm, we danced among the royalty in honor of the Prince's wedding- though, thinking about it we should probably consider it his funeral instead- Lambda is so valid. She can do what she wants.

[ now he's just depressed help ]
Binghe..............
no subject
he'll just lean lightly against sqq]
What happened to your Binghe-san?
no subject
[ a long sigh ]
A curse, for the prince to sleep for all eternity. But at the same time, there was a dragon who followed me after a moment of stupidity. It strongly reminded me of him, and it's very likely somehow he was joined together just as Fenghuang bonded with me.

no subject
Shizun-san, I'm really worried about this trend of you dying repeatedly.... No one person should rack up that many deaths in one go.
[this is so funny given what happens to buzen a week later]
no subject
It's a little funny after a certain point. Truly, a comedy act of how many times one can suffer looping over and over again until something changes.
