( WELCOME BACK, TRAVELERS. )



There's nothing but the clatter of train tracks, and the odd feeling of almost floating.

When you wake, it's hard to tell exactly what it is that you're missing - only that you are. There are pieces that aren't quite right, even if you're not sure where those pieces would normally be. Pieces of what, exactly....? Well, if you had to put a word to it, it would be - yourself, probably. Or did you get something back recently?

The place you've found yourself in is strange, certainly. It's probably worth exploring a bit. Though it just as easily seems that the only form of welcome or explanation that you have, comes from nothing more than a slab of marble. It might've changed since the last time you saw it.

You might have changed since the last time you saw yourself too - perhaps with a new emblem on your clothes, or a portrait on your skin.

There's no need to fret that much though. You've already gone through the ordeal once, and you might be able to see results from it. Even so, it's best that you don't get too comfortable, because there is still the unshakeable feeling:

There's still much more ahead of you.

It's the only thing I have from home.

[ his brows knit for a moment, feeling as though something is missing inside him. but what could that be? but he shakes his head to get his mind off it for now. ]

And I don't think they sell phones back at the shop. Unless someone here can fix it. [ but most of y'all havent even heard of this thing so, ]

[ you fool, kara loves all animals. they're better than people, don't you know. that's why he's not even looking at wwx as he goes. ]

Then I'll find wherever that is.

[SOMEONE GIVE THIS HOBO A HOME gosh. At least now he can drag some pillows to their funky airport or something.

He also doubts it has anything to do with generosity or kindness, but he'll keep that to himself. Speak carefully and respectfully. Slander is forbidden.

He doesn't mention that he FUCKIN HAS TO LOOK OUT FOR NOTSCO BECAUSE OF HOOLIGANS RUNNING AMOK, either. Xie Lian will probably encounter that soon enough himself, god. For now, he simply inclines his head in gratitude at the compliment.]


What do you need? [He's pretty familiar with the layout by now, since he's busy helping people carry out gigantic carrots or 5000 bags of chips.]

[That's...

No.

[WHAT DOES THAT MEAN]
deadened: (42)

[personal profile] deadened 2020-01-14 01:42 am (UTC)(link)
...I'll try to.

[And he'll still do his best to be helpful because this is who he is as a person, but he decides this isn't the time to insist on that. He's just going to have to find ways to make himself useful, even without his physical strength or his core.]

Ah, about this world- do you know if there are many of us here?

[ kara is also here, not staring at jiang cheng but frowning at the door with one hand on his sword. that isn't a sound he expected to hear in this place. what the fuck. ]

Gunshot.

[ because that explains a lot. ]

[Both arms loosen and drape by his sides instead. At first, he looks almost confused, but then he seems more bewildered than anything else. His mouth opens--shuts again, with a bit of a clack of teeth.]

That's... [Ridiculous, he wants to say, even if it isn't necessarily, but... currently... he's standing ankle-deep in snow in the middle of this wild ass place. So he really has nothing solid to compare ridiculous to in the end.] Nevermind.

Am I... dead?

[XIE LIAN LITERALLY SAID HE CAME BACK DOWN, BUT WHATEVER.]

[ She'll never admit that sometimes, it's just something she says, especially when she doesn't know what else to say. ]

Where do we go from here?
dianxias: (18.)

[personal profile] dianxias 2020-01-14 01:49 am (UTC)(link)
1990s? [ batteries? microwaves?? pizza??????



okay yeah now he's overwhelmed. xie lian puts his hand to his forehead... ]
I'm even older than I thought... it's too easy to lose track of time...

[ you've been ascended again for like five minutes buddy you didn't lose THAT much time.

anyway. letting that distress clear away, he gives another small, polite bow of his head. ]
I'll do my best to learn about these things too, then. Admittedly, it's nice to talk to someone...ah, well, I think you and I may have some things in common. [ he reaches downwards and gestures at his white cultivation robes, picking them up at the frayed hem. ] I've been many places in my life, but this is beyond the farthest, if it's even across time.

[ xie lian gives wei wuxian a sweet smile. ] In those travels I've adapted to many things, and the teachings of others have always helped me with that, too, so thank you very much.

[ She's not the best at reading people, so she's not sure if that reaction is good or bad. ]

... I'm gloomy.

Hm? A tavern? No barkeep, though...

[ ah. well! at least he's not freaking out. xie lian reaches up to scratch the tip of his own nose, a bit sheepish...


.......maybe he's a bit more freaked out than he seems. ]
Nn, no. [ shaking his head! ] Not as far as I can tell, anyway. You're quite living, and if I'm here, I'm sure we both are.

[ he like functionally can't die so dw (?) ] Did you also awaken on that? [ . . . and then, with a smile like it's just a little exciting fun fact: ] I read it was called a train.
ittoryu: (g - hip.)

[personal profile] ittoryu 2020-01-14 01:54 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, you mean the one with all the food? No, not yet. I'll have to try that next, then.
ittoryu: (g - hip.)

[personal profile] ittoryu 2020-01-14 01:56 am (UTC)(link)
I'll keep an ear out for such a person, just in case. It's a pity that they aren't sold here, though—it seems fascinating.
ittoryu: (g - hip.)

[personal profile] ittoryu 2020-01-14 01:57 am (UTC)(link)
First... we explore our new surroundings! Knowledge is power, after all. It would not do us well to be caught off-guard.
dianxias: (18.)

ABSOLUTELY NOT HE CAN'T DIE

[personal profile] dianxias 2020-01-14 01:58 am (UTC)(link)
A sweater! Ah, how nice. I hope it isn't making you sweat too much. [ WHAT WAS THAT DAD JOKE

when wen ning bows to him, xie lian returns the favor! he's polite, placing his hands together with all the royal formalities of a prince despite the fact that he looks like a hobo. ]
En, daozhang is fine. Xie-daozhang, if you would prefer.

[ it's close enough, anyway. he rises from his bow with a kind smile. ] What can I call you?

[ His references go right over her head, but they make her brows furrow nonetheless. ]

Are you certain? You do know some of your thoughts are being communicated, don't you?

[ Her smile is pleasant. ]

[Reaching out before Wen Ning gets to far, he grabs a fistful of--

Slowly, he gives Wen Ning a once-over in that GOD AWFUL shirt, from face to shirt, to face again.]
What are you wearing?! Nevermind! [He doesn't wanna know. He growls lowly and jerks Wen Ning around to start marching the two of them through the snow, Wen Ning in front.]

Don't lie to me! If anyone knows were Wei Wuxian is, it's you!

[ hm. this is not an exit. kara would turn right back around and leave if something didn't catch his eye.

the photographs on the wall - one of them looks like him.

what the fuck. ]
deadened: (Default)

we'll see about That

[personal profile] deadened 2020-01-14 02:06 am (UTC)(link)
[THE DAD JOKE... that gets a little smile out of him, at least, which makes him look less nervous in general. It's a start!]

Wen Ning. Courtesy name Qionglin, b-but... most use my birth name.

[It's just what he's gotten used to? It's fine; he doesn't mind what he's called.]

[Lan Wangji is in love with someone who ridicules his food preferences every single chance he gets and he was not expecting any of this. HE'S SO PLEASED THIS IS TERRIBLE.

He's too polite (and too naturally stone-faced) to openly show it, but he nods, heading towards their choices to gather them up.]


What tea do you prefer?
ittoryu: (sprite - cats.)

[personal profile] ittoryu 2020-01-14 02:10 am (UTC)(link)
[lwj............ precious]

Any sort of green tea is fine with me.

[He really doesn't want to know that Wei Wuxian picked this out, which is good because Wen Ning's definitely not going to say it! There's not much he can do to escape, though, without his usual strength; it's all too easy to shove him around now that he's normal, though he's still struggling against Jiang Cheng's hold.]

I don't! I d-don't know what this place is, much less where he'd be...

[Knowing Wei Wuxian, he could be literally anywhere by now, and this area is now one of 2 whole locations Wen Ning has visited.]
ittoryu: (g - hip.)

[personal profile] ittoryu 2020-01-14 02:11 am (UTC)(link)
Did you find something? [he peers at the photographs.] —Hm.
